We reserve the right to terminate or suspend accounts that violate these Terms or are used for fraudulent purposes.

The "People" feature allows you to share your real-time GPS location with other community members. Location sharing is entirely opt-in and can be toggled on or off at any time from within the app.
Location sharing is limited to coordinates within Iceland. Shared locations are visible to other authenticated, paying Froad members. We do not sell or share location data with third parties outside the Service. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
Important: F-roads in Iceland are mountain tracks designated for 4×4 vehicles only. Road conditions can change rapidly due to weather, river levels, and seasonal closures. Froad provides community-contributed information as a supplementary tool only — it does not replace official guidance from the Icelandic Road and Coastal Administration (road.is) or safetravel.is.
Froad makes no warranties about the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of road condition data. Travelling on F-roads is inherently risky. You are solely responsible for assessing conditions and driving safely. Froad accepts no liability for accidents, vehicle damage, or personal injury arising from reliance on information published within the Service.
All content, design, code, branding, and materials provided by Froad — including the logo, map interface, and platform software — are the property of Froad and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, or distribute any part of the Service without our written consent.
You agree not to:
We may suspend or terminate your account at our discretion if we determine you have violated these Terms. You may also delete your account at any time by contacting us at hello@froad.is.
Upon termination, your right to access the Service ceases immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitation of liability) will remain in effect.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Froad and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of or inability to use the Service — including but not limited to loss of data, loss of access, or any harm arising from decisions made based on information in the Service.
Our total liability to you in connection with the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid for your subscription in the twelve months prior to the event giving rise to the claim.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
For material changes, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you via email or an in-app notice.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Iceland. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Service shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Iceland.
