1. Agreement
noreaster.com is operated by ANGLERS LLC, 5 Pinecone Ln, Commack, NY 11725.
These Terms govern your use of the noreaster.com Services. By using the Services, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you use the Services for a business or organization, you confirm that you have authority to bind it.
2. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 13 and legally able to agree to these Terms. Provide accurate information, safeguard your account, and notify us of unauthorized use. You are responsible for activity under your account.
3. Community and contributor content
You retain ownership of content you submit. You grant noreaster.com a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, format, display, distribute, and promote that content solely to operate and improve the Services and carry out your publishing instructions. You confirm that you have the necessary rights and that content is accurate to the best of your knowledge.
Do not submit illegal, deceptive, infringing, harassing, dangerous, malicious, privacy-invasive, or spam content. Do not publish private fishing locations or personal data without authorization. We may moderate, restrict, or remove content and accounts to protect the community or comply with law.
4. Connected Meta publishing
If you connect a Facebook Page or Instagram professional account after this optional feature becomes available, you confirm that you are authorized to manage it. noreaster.com may use granted permissions only to show eligible assets, prepare a preview, publish content you expressly approve, read the resulting post status, and troubleshoot the integration. You remain responsible for the content, audience, and compliance of each publication.
Once the optional feature is available, you may disconnect Meta at any time. Meta's own terms will also apply. We may pause the integration if authorization expires, a platform rule changes, or continued use could harm users or the Services.
5. Nor'easter Data API and AI assistants
The Nor'easter Data API is a read-only service for approved apps, including AI assistants, that answer fishing questions with noreaster.com reports, zones, and party and charter boat listings. Access requires an API key issued by noreaster.com. Keep keys confidential; you are responsible for requests made with your key. We may set, change, or enforce rate limits and quotas, and we may suspend or revoke a key at any time to protect the Services or its users.
Apps may use API responses only to answer their users' questions, should attribute noreaster.com, and should link to the canonical noreaster.com URL included in each response. Do not resell API data, build a competing dataset from it, or use it to train models without written permission. Reports and listings remain the property of noreaster.com and its contributors.
An AI assistant may summarize or rephrase our information, and noreaster.com is not responsible for how a third-party app presents it. Boat listings are provided for contact purposes; confirm trips, availability, and prices directly with the operator. noreaster.com does not take bookings or payments through the API. Section 6 applies to all information delivered through the API.
6. Fishing, marine, weather, and regulatory information
Information is educational and may be delayed, incomplete, or incorrect. It is not a substitute for official NOAA, Coast Guard, state agency, navigation, weather, safety, or legal sources. Conditions change quickly. You are solely responsible for trip decisions, vessel operation, safety equipment, and compliance with current regulations.
7. Intellectual property
The Services, design, software, branding, and original noreaster.com materials are protected by law. These Terms do not grant permission to copy our branding, scrape restricted areas, bypass access controls, or use the Services to train or operate a competing dataset without written authorization.
8. Service availability and beta features
Beta features may change, fail, or be discontinued. We may modify or suspend Services for maintenance, security, legal, or operational reasons. We do not promise uninterrupted availability.
9. Disclaimer and limitation
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. noreaster.com is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, lost data or profits, or decisions made from fishing, weather, marine, or regulatory information.
10. Termination
You may stop using the Services at any time and may request account deletion. We may suspend or terminate access for material violations, security risk, legal requirements, or harm to the community. Provisions that should reasonably survive termination will survive.
11. Changes and contact
We may update these Terms and will post the revised date. Material changes may receive additional notice. Questions: privacy@noreaster.com.
