3. APP USAGE AND INTENDED PURPOSE
Surf Prophet is designed to provide AI-powered surf predictions based on real-time oceanographic data. Please understand the following about our service:
Entertainment and Information
This app is intended for entertainment purposes only. While we strive to provide accurate predictions based on available data, surf forecasting involves many variables and inherent uncertainties.
Appropriate Usage
Users should be mindful of appropriate usage in social settings and for making decisions of any kind. The app should supplement, not replace, your own judgment and experience.
⚠️ OCEAN SAFETY WARNING
Weather and waves are unpredictable and always exercise extreme caution when entering the ocean.
Ocean activities carry inherent risks including but not limited to:
- Drowning and near-drowning incidents
- Injuries from waves, rocks, or marine life
- Strong currents and changing conditions
- Equipment failure or loss
You participate in ocean activities at your own risk. Surf Prophet predictions should never be your sole source of information for making safety decisions. Always:
- Check local conditions and warnings before entering the water
- Surf within your skill level and physical capabilities
- Follow local beach safety guidelines and lifeguard instructions
- Never surf alone - use the buddy system
- Be aware of your own limitations and environmental factors
4. DATA AND PREDICTIONS
Our predictions are based on:
- Real-time NOAA buoy data and meteorological information
- Historical surf conditions and patterns
- User-contributed session data and feedback
- AI algorithms that learn and improve over time
While we use sophisticated technology and data sources, no surf prediction can be 100% accurate. Conditions can change rapidly and unexpectedly.
