Parky.AI Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of Parky.ai, a product and trade name operated by Ateliers Underlabs Inc., including the Parky.ai mobile application and related services (collectively, the “Services”). In these Terms, “Parky,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the operator identified above.

Please read these Terms carefully. By downloading, accessing, or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, access, or use Parky. If you have already installed the application, you must stop using it and delete it from your device.

1. Acceptance and Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and have reached the age of majority in your jurisdiction to use the Services or purchase a subscription. By using the Services, you represent that you meet these requirements and have the legal capacity to agree to these Terms.

2. Description of the Services

Parky analyzes images submitted by users and generates informational explanations intended to assist users in understanding visible parking signs. Parky is designed to assist users in understanding parking signs in supported locations worldwide. Availability, functionality, accuracy, and regulatory coverage may vary by country, region, municipality, language, sign type, and local conditions.

Parky does not determine whether parking is lawful, does not provide legal advice, and does not replace your direct observation, judgment, or verification of applicable laws and restrictions.

3. Important Parking-Safety and Accuracy Notice

The Services use automated systems, including artificial-intelligence and machine-learning technologies, to analyze images and generate responses. Automated results may be incorrect, incomplete, outdated, inconsistent, or inappropriate for your specific location or circumstances. A confident or clearly worded answer does not guarantee that the answer is correct. The Services may be unavailable, interrupted, delayed, or unable to analyze a submission.

Parky may not identify or reliably account for every temporary, environmental, physical, legal, or contextual factor. These factors may include construction, temporary notices, snow removal, public events, damaged or obstructed signs, stickers, curb or pavement markings, fire hydrants, driveways, entrances, meters, permits, nearby signs, direction of travel, or location-specific rules. A restriction outside the submitted image cannot be analyzed from that image.

Parky may rely on information provided by you or your device, including the current date, time, timezone, language, and submitted images. Parky does not use your device location. If the information supplied by you or your device is missing, inaccurate, or outdated, the result may also be inaccurate.

4. User Responsibilities

You are solely responsible for deciding whether and where to park, inspecting the surrounding area, verifying Parky’s response, and complying with all applicable signs, laws, regulations, restrictions, fees, and permit requirements.

You are responsible for capturing clear and complete images of every sign, panel, arrow, curb marking, pavement marking, meter, temporary notice, or other restriction that may apply to the intended parking space. You must not assume that the nearest sign is necessarily the sign governing the intended parking space.

If you use Parky in connection with operating or parking a vehicle, you are responsible for ensuring that you are legally authorized to operate that vehicle and that your use complies with all applicable laws. Do not capture images, review results, or otherwise interact with Parky while driving or controlling a moving vehicle. Park safely before using the application.

5. Submitted Images and Privacy

You retain ownership of images and other content you submit. You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive licence to host, transmit, reproduce, process, and analyze submitted content solely as necessary to process your submission and provide, secure, and troubleshoot the requested service.

Submitted images are processed to provide the requested analysis and are not retained by Parky after processing. Parky does not log submitted images or use them for model training. If you voluntarily report an incorrect reading, we may review the generated result included with that report. The reported result does not identify you or link back to you.

You must have the right to submit any image or other content provided through the Services. You should avoid capturing identifiable people, licence plates, private information, or unrelated property where doing so is not necessary. Our collection, use, processing, and handling of information are described in the Parky.ai Privacy Policy, which applies to your use of the Services.

6. Acceptable Use

You may not:

• use the Services in a manner that violates traffic, road-safety, distracted-driving, privacy, intellectual-property, or other applicable laws, or that infringes another person’s rights;
• interfere with, attack, probe, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services or related systems;
• bypass rate limits, access controls, subscription requirements, or purchase controls;
• scrape the Services, use them through unauthorized automated means, or engage in automated high-volume use;
• reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Services, except to the extent such a restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
• resell or commercially redistribute Parky outputs, or use the Services or their outputs to build or train a competing parking-sign dataset, model, product, or service; or
• submit malware or manipulated inputs intended to damage, evade, overload, or disrupt the Services.

7. Subscriptions, Billing, Cancellation, and Refunds

Certain features require a paid subscription or other in-app purchase. Prices, billing periods, trial terms, if any, and applicable taxes will be displayed before purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period until cancelled, unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase.

Purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play are billed to the payment method associated with your applicable store account and are subject to that store’s payment, cancellation, and refund rules. You may manage or cancel a subscription through your Apple App Store or Google Play account settings. Cancellation takes effect as provided by the applicable store and does not ordinarily result in a refund for a billing period already started, except where required by law or permitted by the applicable store.

We or the applicable store may change subscription prices. Any price change will be presented or communicated as required by applicable law and the applicable store’s rules. Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory cancellation, refund, renewal-notice, or other consumer right.

8. Intellectual Property

The Services, including their software, design, interfaces, text, graphics, branding, and other content provided by us, are owned by or licensed to Ateliers Underlabs Inc. and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Third-party names, marks, content, and technologies remain the property of their respective owners.

We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable licence to install and use the application for its intended purpose in accordance with these Terms. No other right or licence is granted.

9. Third-Party Platforms and Services

The Services may depend on or link to third-party platforms or services, including the Apple App Store and Google Play. Those third parties may apply their own terms and privacy policies. We are responsible for the Services as between you and us. Apple and Google are not responsible for providing maintenance or support for Parky, except as required under their own terms or applicable law.

10. Suspension, Termination, and Discontinuation

We may suspend or terminate access where we reasonably believe that you have violated these Terms, misused the Services, created a security or legal risk, or where suspension or termination is reasonably necessary to protect Parky, its users, or third parties. Where reasonably practicable, we will provide notice. Any suspension or termination is subject to applicable law and the payment and refund rules of the applicable app store.

We may change or discontinue some or all of the Services. Where a discontinuation affects a paid subscription or remaining paid period, we will comply with applicable law and the payment and refund rules of the applicable app store.

11. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of accuracy, reliability, completeness, availability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee a parking space, a lawful parking decision, or avoidance of a ticket, penalty, tow, impoundment, delay, loss, or damage.

Some jurisdictions do not permit certain warranty exclusions. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law. Nothing in these Terms limits mandatory consumer warranties or remedies.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND EXCEPT WHERE LIABILITY CANNOT LAWFULLY BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED, INCLUDING LIABILITY ARISING FROM INTENTIONAL OR GROSS FAULT OR LIABILITY FOR BODILY OR MORAL INJURY, PARKY, ATELIERS UNDERLABS INC., AND THEIRDIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, AND CONTRACTORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, OR FOR PARKING FINES, PENALTIES, TOWING FEES, IMPOUND FEES, VEHICLE REPAIR FEES, OR OTHER LOSSES ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE TOTAL COMBINED LIABILITY OF PARKY, ATELIERS UNDERLABS INC., AND THE OTHER PARTIES LISTED ABOVE FOR ALL CLAIMSARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU FOR THE SERVICES, WHETHER THROUGH APPLE, GOOGLE, OR ANOTHER AUTHORIZED PAYMENT PROVIDER, DURING THE SIX MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; AND (B) CAD $25.

These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. They apply only to the extent permitted by the mandatory laws of your jurisdiction.

13. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify Ateliers Underlabs Inc. and its directors, officers, employees, agents, and contractors against third-party claims, damages, and reasonable costs arising directly from your unlawful use of the Services, your material breach of these Terms, your infringement of another person’s rights, content you had no right to submit, or your intentional misuse of the Services.

14. Changes to the Services and These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The Effective Date shown on this page indicates when the Terms were last updated. Where required by law, or where changes materially affect users’ rights or obligations, we will provide reasonable notice before the changes take effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

15. Governing Law and Consumer Rights

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to any mandatory rights you may have under the laws of your place of residence, disputes shall be submitted to the courts located in the judicial district of Montreal, Quebec.

16. General Provisions

These Terms and the policies expressly incorporated into them constitute the entire agreement between you and us concerning the Services. If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of that provision.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms as part of a merger, reorganization, sale of assets, or by operation of law, subject to applicable law. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including provisions concerning intellectual property, disclaimers, liability, indemnification, and general interpretation.

These Terms do not create third-party beneficiary rights except where such rights arise under applicable app-store terms or applicable law. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. You agree that we may provide legally permitted notices and communications electronically, including through the Services, an app store, our website, or the contact information you provide.
