Terms of use

Effective 25 August 2026

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your use of Loli·GO. They include an agreement to resolve disputes by individual arbitration and a waiver of class actions and jury trials (section 19), and limits on what we are liable for (sections 16 and 17). Please read them.

1. Who these terms are between

Loli·GO is operated by Code Logistics LLC, a Washington limited liability company (“Code Logistics”, “we”, “us”). These Terms are an agreement between Code Logistics and you, the person using Loli·GO (“you”).

You accept these Terms by signing in to Loli·GO or by using it in any way. If you do not accept them, do not sign in. If you are using Loli·GO on behalf of a vessel, a dock, or any other business, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms for that business, and “you” means both you and that business.

If a dock has signed a separate written agreement with us covering Loli·GO, that agreement governs the dock’s use and controls over these Terms wherever the two conflict, for that dock. These Terms still govern each individual’s own use of the software.

2. Words we use

• Loli·GO — the Loli·GO mobile apps, the Captain and Dock web applications, the loligo.app website, our APIs, and the notifications and messages they send.
• Dock — a seafood processing business that has been given a Loli·GO account and enrols vessels and authorizes captains under it. Also called a processor or a buyer.
• Captain — a person a dock has authorized to send advisories on a vessel it has enrolled.
• Advisory — a pre-landing message from a vessel to a dock carrying an estimate of what is coming in and when, together with the dock’s response to it and any later revision or withdrawal.
• Your content — anything you enter into Loli·GO: species and estimated pounds, arrival windows, lane assignments, decline reasons, notes, and anything else you type or dictate.

3. What Loli·GO is

Loli·GO carries a vessel’s pre-landing catch estimate to the seafood dock that expects to receive it, and carries the dock’s response back. That is the whole of it.

We provide the software that carries those messages and keeps the record of them. We are not a party to anything the two ends agree between themselves.

4. What Loli·GO is not

4.1 An advisory is not a purchase commitment

When a dock acknowledges an advisory it is confirming that it has read the estimate and, if it set one, that it has a receiving plan. It is not agreeing to buy the catch, to a price, or to a quantity. Nothing in the app forms a contract of sale between a captain and a dock.

Whether a landing is bought, at what price, on what terms, and what happens if either side does not perform, is between the vessel and the dock, under whatever arrangement they have outside Loli·GO. We are not a party to it, we do not guarantee it, and we have no responsibility for it.

4.2 An advisory is not a regulatory record

Estimates in Loli·GO are made at sea before a landing. They are not certified weights, and an advisory is not a fish ticket, a logbook, a landing report, or any other regulatory filing. Whatever the law requires of a vessel or a dock is still required, unchanged, elsewhere.

Loli·GO is not connected to any regulatory, enforcement, or fishery-management system, and sending an advisory notifies no agency. You remain solely responsible for every filing, report, licence, permit, quota, catch-share, observer, traceability, food-safety, and record-keeping obligation that applies to you, and for the accuracy of each one.

4.3 Loli·GO is not a safety, navigation, or emergency service

Loli·GO does not provide navigation, positioning, weather, sea-state, vessel-monitoring, or distress services, and no message sent through it reaches the Coast Guard or any other rescue or emergency authority. It will not summon help.

4.4 An estimate is not a measurement

Everything a captain enters is an estimate made before the fish are on a scale, and everything a dock enters is a plan made before the boat is at the dock. Loli·GO does not weigh, grade, sample, inspect, or verify anything. Species identifications, counts, and pounds are the entering party’s own statements, carried as entered.

4.5 We are not a broker, dealer, or agent

We do not buy, sell, take title to, take possession of, transport, store, market, grade, or insure fish. We are not a fish dealer, a first receiver, a commission merchant, a broker, an auctioneer, a carrier, a warehouse, an escrow, a payment processor, or the agent or representative of any vessel or dock. We are a software provider, and nothing in Loli·GO creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between us and you.

5. Who may use it

Loli·GO is for commercial use by adults in the seafood trade. To use it you must be at least 18 years old, be legally able to enter into a contract, be acting in the course of a business rather than for personal, family, or household purposes, and hold an account a dock has authorized. You must not use Loli·GO if we have previously terminated your access.

6. Accounts and access

6.1 Accounts belong to the dock relationship

A dock enrols its vessels and authorizes the captains who run them; a captain’s access exists because a dock granted it and ends when the dock closes it. Sign in only as yourself, and keep your phone’s access to your own account.

A dock that authorizes a person is responsible for that person’s use of Loli·GO, for keeping its list of authorized captains and enrolled vessels current, and for closing access promptly when someone leaves. We act on the authorizations a dock has entered, and we are entitled to treat anything done from an account as done by the person the account belongs to.

6.2 Sign-in and account security

Loli·GO signs you in with your mobile number and a six-digit code we text you. There is no password. That means your account is only as secure as your phone number and your phone. You agree to keep your device locked, not to share codes with anyone, not to let another person use your account, and to tell us at loli@loligo.app and tell your dock immediately if you lose the device or the number, or if you suspect anyone else has used your account. You are responsible for activity under your account until you have told us.

You agree that the information you give us — your name, your mobile number, your vessel — is accurate, and that you will keep it current. Tell your dock when your mobile number changes, before it changes hands: a recycled number can otherwise receive your sign-in codes.

7. Texts, calls, and notifications

By giving a mobile number to Loli·GO, or by having one entered for you by your dock and then signing in with it, you consent to receive text messages from us at that number — including messages sent using an automatic telephone dialling system — for sign-in codes, advisory activity, and service notices. Consent to these messages is a condition of using Loli·GO, because they are how you sign in; we do not send marketing texts.

Message and data rates may apply, and message frequency varies with how much you use Loli·GO. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Reply STOP to stop messages and HELP for help. Stopping messages will stop your sign-in codes as well, which will end your ability to use Loli·GO.

Every message Loli·GO sends, the sentence you agree to before it sends any, and how to stop them are set out at getting set up.

If you turn on push notifications, you agree that we may send them to your device. Notifications and texts travel over networks we do not control and can be delayed, silenced by your device, or not arrive at all — see section 16. Do not treat the absence of a notification as information.

8. What you enter, and who sees it

Your content stays yours. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, transmit, display, back up, and process it, and to make the derivative copies that operating the service requires, solely in order to run Loli·GO for you and the counterparty you sent it to, to keep the record described below, to keep the service secure, and to comply with law. We do not sell it and we do not use it for advertising.

You represent that you have the right to enter what you enter and that it is accurate to the best of your knowledge when you enter it.

A captain’s advisory is visible to that captain and to the dock it was sent to, and to nobody else’s boat or dock. What we collect and how long it is kept is described on the Privacy page, which is part of these Terms.

Every action that changes an advisory is logged with who did it and when, and that log is deliberate: two businesses are coordinating a landing and each needs to be able to show what was said. Revisions do not overwrite earlier ones and withdrawal does not erase anything. You agree not to attempt to alter or delete that record. We make no representation that the record will be admissible or sufficient in any proceeding.

We may use aggregated and de-identified information — data that does not identify you, your vessel, your dock, or any individual landing — to operate, secure, analyse, and improve Loli·GO.

8.1 Photographs of the catch

Either end of a delivery may photograph it. A photograph is visible to the boat and to the dock on that delivery, and to nobody else’s boat or dock. Only the side that took a photograph can remove it, so that neither party can quietly take down the half of a record the other is relying on.

Removing a photograph deletes the image. The record that a photograph was taken, by whom and when, stays in the log described above, because that log is what two businesses rely on to show what was said. The picture itself is gone.

Photographs are taken on working decks. You are responsible for what you photograph, and you agree not to upload images of people who have not agreed to be photographed, or anything you do not have the right to upload.

8.2 Using what you enter to improve Loli·GO, including model training

In addition to the aggregated and de-identified use above, we may use what you enter — including photographs of the catch, the species and weights recorded beside them, and the notes and captions you write — to develop and improve Loli·GO, including by training machine-learning models. What that is for is the work this product already does: recognising a species, reading a ticket, and telling the condition of a catch from a picture of it.

A model trained this way may be used to run Loli·GO for every customer, including docks and vessels other than yours. We do not sell your data, we do not use it for advertising, and we will not build a feature that shows one customer’s landings, prices, or catch to another.

If you would rather we did not, tell us at loli@loligo.app and we will exclude your organization’s photographs and records from this use. It costs you nothing else: every part of Loli·GO works the same either way.

Two limits worth stating plainly. Removing a photograph, or asking us to stop, applies from that point forward — a model that has already been trained cannot be made to forget what it learned, and we will not claim otherwise. And a model’s output is a suggestion: nothing it produces is a certified weight, a grade you are bound by, or a regulatory filing, and §4 applies to it in full.

If you send us feedback, suggestions, or ideas, you grant us an unrestricted, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use them for any purpose, with no obligation to you.

9. You set your own prices

Loli·GO carries a vessel’s estimate to one dock. It is not a place to coordinate with anyone else, and you agree not to use it to do so. You must not use Loli·GO to fix, stabilize, or signal prices, to allocate vessels, docks, territories, or landings, to boycott anyone, or to exchange competitively sensitive information with a competitor. Every pricing and purchasing decision either end of an advisory makes must be made independently.

10. Acceptable use

You agree not to, and not to permit anyone else to:

• use Loli·GO for anything unlawful, or in breach of any fishery, food-safety, maritime, labour, sanctions, or privacy law that applies to you;
• enter information you know to be false, or send an advisory for a trip or a vessel you are not authorized to send for;
• impersonate anyone, sign in as another person, or misrepresent your vessel, dock, or authorization;
• access, or try to access, an advisory, account, vessel, or dock that is not yours — including by guessing identifiers or manipulating requests;
• probe, scan, penetration-test, disrupt, overload, or circumvent any security or rate limit of Loli·GO without our prior written permission;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of Loli·GO, or attempt to derive its source code, except where that restriction is unenforceable by law;
• scrape, crawl, bulk-export, or use any automated means to access Loli·GO, or use it to build a competing or derivative product, or to train a machine-learning model;
• resell, sublicense, rent, or provide Loli·GO to a third party, or use it on behalf of a dock that has no account of its own;
• upload malicious code, or anything unlawful, harassing, defamatory, or abusive, into a note or any other field;
• remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notice, or misuse our name or marks.

Security researchers: we welcome reports at loli@loligo.app. Please tell us before you test, do not access anyone else’s data, and give us a reasonable chance to fix what you find.

11. Availability and change

Loli·GO is early software in a pilot. It can be unavailable, and a notification can be late. Do not use it as the only way a landing gets coordinated — the radio and the phone still decide what happens at the dock.

We do not promise any level of availability, uptime, response time, or delivery, and there is no service level agreement. We may change, add, or remove features, and we may suspend Loli·GO for maintenance, security, or any other reason, at any time. We will give reasonable notice of a material adverse change or of discontinuing the service where we practically can. Parts of Loli·GO may be labelled pilot, beta, preview, or similar: those are provided for evaluation, may be withdrawn, and are excluded from any commitment we make anywhere.

12. Fees

Loli·GO is provided at no charge to captains. Any fees a dock owes are set out in the separate written agreement between that dock and Code Logistics, and nothing in these Terms creates a payment obligation on its own. We may introduce fees for Loli·GO in the future; if we do, we will give notice before they apply to you, and continuing to use Loli·GO after they take effect is how you accept them. You are responsible for your own device, data plan, and connectivity costs.

13. Ownership and licences

Loli·GO, including all software, designs, text, graphics, and the Loli·GO and Code Logistics names and marks, is owned by Code Logistics or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Except for the licence below, no right in it passes to you.

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licence to install and use Loli·GO on devices you own or control, in the course of the business the dock authorized you for, for as long as that authorization lasts. We reserve every right not expressly granted.

14. App stores and third parties

14.1 Apple

This section applies if you obtained the Loli·GO app from the Apple App Store. You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Code Logistics only, and not with Apple, and that Code Logistics — not Apple — is solely responsible for the app and its content. Your licence to use the app is limited to a non-transferable licence to use it on any Apple-branded product you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services for the app. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price of the app to you, if any; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the app. Code Logistics, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claim by you or a third party relating to the app or your use of it, including product liability claims, any claim that the app fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, any claim arising under consumer protection or similar legislation, and any third-party claim that the app or your use of it infringes intellectual property rights. You must comply with any applicable third-party terms when using the app. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, on your acceptance of them, will have the right to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

14.2 Google Play

If you obtained the app from Google Play, your use is also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the app.

14.3 Other third parties

Loli·GO relies on services we do not control — mobile carriers, SMS gateways, push notification services, cloud hosting, and the networks between them. We are not responsible for their acts, omissions, outages, or changes. Links from Loli·GO to third-party sites are for convenience only and are not an endorsement.

15. Suspension and termination

You may stop using Loli·GO at any time, and you may ask your dock or write to loli@loligo.app to close your access. A dock may close a captain’s authorization at any time.

We may suspend or terminate your access, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms, if your dock’s authorization or agreement ends, if your account poses a security or legal risk, or if we discontinue Loli·GO. We will try to give notice where it is practical and lawful to do so.

When your access ends, your licence ends and you must stop using Loli·GO. The record of completed and in-flight landings stays with the dock that received them, and closing an individual’s authorization does not erase the history a dock needs to keep. Sections 4, 8, 13, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 23 survive termination, along with any other provision that by its nature should.

16. Disclaimer of warranties

No advice or information, oral or written, obtained from us or through Loli·GO creates any warranty not expressly stated here. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you; in that case, such warranties are limited to the shortest period and narrowest scope the law permits.

17. Limitation of liability

These limits apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose, and they allocate the risk between us: they are part of the basis of the bargain and Loli·GO would not be offered without them. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for our own fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by our negligence. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

18. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Code Logistics and its members, officers, employees, and contractors from and against any claim, demand, proceeding, loss, liability, penalty, damage, cost, and expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to: your use of Loli·GO; your content; your breach of these Terms or of any law; any dispute between you and a dock, a vessel, a buyer, a crew member, or any other third party, including any dispute about a landing, a price, a quantity, or a refused load; and any regulatory filing or failure to file. We will notify you of the claim, give you control of the defence (except that you may not settle in a way that admits fault or imposes an obligation on us without our written consent), and cooperate reasonably at your expense.

19. Disputes and arbitration

19.1 Talk to us first

Before starting an arbitration, you agree to send a written notice of the dispute to loli@loligo.app describing what happened and what you want, and to give us 60 days to try to resolve it. We will do the same for a dispute we have with you. This step is a condition of starting arbitration, and it pauses any applicable limitations period while it runs.

19.2 Agreement to arbitrate

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to Loli·GO or these Terms — including their formation, interpretation, breach, termination, validity, or enforceability, and including claims that arose before you accepted these Terms — will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, or under its Consumer Arbitration Rules if the AAA determines those apply. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. The arbitrator decides all issues except that a court decides the enforceability of section 19.3.

The arbitration will be seated in King County, Washington, and may be conducted by videoconference or on documents alone; if you are an individual, you may instead choose the county where you live. One arbitrator will preside. The arbitrator may award any relief a court could award to that individual claimant, is bound by these Terms, and must issue a reasoned written decision. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each side bears its own legal fees unless a statute or the arbitrator’s award provides otherwise; filing and arbitrator fees are allocated under the applicable AAA rules.

19.3 No class actions, no jury

Arbitration is one claimant against one respondent. You and Code Logistics each waive any right to bring or participate in a class, collective, consolidated, coordinated, or representative action, or to have a claim heard by a jury. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over any form of representative proceeding. If this paragraph is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or a particular remedy, then that claim or remedy — and only that one — must be brought in the courts identified in section 20, and the rest of this section 19 still applies to everything else. If this paragraph is found unenforceable in its entirety, section 19.2 does not apply.

19.4 What is carved out

Either of us may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, and either of us may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in court to stop misuse of intellectual property, unauthorized access, or breach of confidentiality, without waiving this section.

19.5 One year to bring a claim

Any claim arising out of or relating to Loli·GO or these Terms must be brought within one year after it arises, or it is permanently barred, to the extent the law allows a shortened period.

20. Governing law and venue

These Terms and any dispute under them are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and by the Federal Arbitration Act as to section 19. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and Code Logistics consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in King County, Washington, and waive any objection to that forum.

21. Export controls and sanctions

You must comply with all U.S. and other applicable export control and sanctions laws. You represent that you are not located in, organized under the laws of, or ordinarily resident in a country or region subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions, and that you are not listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Loli·GO is commercial computer software; any use by or for the U.S. Government is subject to FAR 12.212 and DFARS 227.7202, with only the rights granted to all other users.

22. Notices

We may give you notice by in-app message, push notification, text message to the number on your account, or email to an address you or your dock has given us, and notice is effective when sent. You agree to receive communications from us electronically, and that electronic communications and records satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing. You may give us notice at loli@loligo.app, effective when we receive it. Keep your contact details current: a notice sent to stale details still counts.

23. General

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy page and any separate written agreement between Code Logistics and your dock, are the entire agreement about Loli·GO and supersede everything said or written before it. You have not relied on any statement not set out here.

Severability and waiver. If any provision is held unenforceable, it is modified to the minimum extent needed to make it enforceable, or severed if it cannot be, and the rest stays in force. Not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it, and no waiver is effective unless we give it in writing.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account, by operation of law or otherwise, without our written consent; any attempt to do so is void. We may assign these Terms to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.

Force majeure. Neither of us is liable for a failure or delay caused by something beyond our reasonable control — including weather, sea conditions, natural disaster, fire, power or network failure, carrier or cloud provider outage, labour dispute, act of government, embargo, epidemic, war, terrorism, or cyberattack.

Third-party beneficiaries. There are none, except Apple and its subsidiaries as stated in section 14.1.

Interpretation. Headings are for convenience and do not affect meaning. “Including” means “including without limitation”. These Terms will not be construed against the drafter. The English version controls over any translation.

24. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms. When we do, we will change the date at the top of this page, and for a material change we will give notice in the app, by text, or by email at least 14 days before it takes effect, unless the change is required sooner by law or security. Continuing to use Loli·GO after a change takes effect is how you accept it. If you do not accept a change, stop using Loli·GO and ask your dock to close your access.
