Terms of Use

Effective Date: June 26, 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) apply to the Apex Mini Map mobile application (“Apex” or the “App”), provided by CK Design & Development, LLC (“CKD&D,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

By downloading, accessing, or using Apex, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

Apple Standard EULA

If you obtained Apex through the Apple App Store, your license to use the App is also governed by Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (“Apple Standard EULA”).

These Terms supplement the Apple Standard EULA. They do not replace or limit any rights or obligations that cannot legally be modified. If these Terms conflict with the Apple Standard EULA regarding your license to the App, the Apple Standard EULA controls to the extent of that conflict.

Apple is not responsible for providing support or maintenance for Apex except as required by applicable law or Apple’s own terms.

What Apex Does

Apex provides an arcade-style driving minimap that may display features such as:

  • Your current map position
  • Direction of travel
  • Estimated speed
  • Road shape and surrounding map content
  • Road Focus and visual map overlays
  • Map themes and cursor settings
  • Nearby fuel-station markers

Apex is a visual driving companion. It is not turn-by-turn navigation, a certified speedometer, a collision-avoidance system, an autonomous-driving system, or a substitute for your judgment.

Safe and Lawful Use

You must not interact with Apex while operating a vehicle when doing so would distract you, interfere with safe vehicle operation, or violate applicable law.

You are solely responsible for:

  • Watching the road and surrounding conditions
  • Maintaining control of your vehicle
  • Obeying speed limits, road signs, closures, and traffic laws
  • Properly securing your device
  • Configuring the App before driving
  • Pulling over safely before interacting with the App when necessary
  • Deciding whether it is safe and lawful to continue driving

Apex is not intended to encourage speeding, racing, aggressive driving, reckless driving, trespassing, or any other dangerous or unlawful conduct.

Stop using Apex immediately if it distracts you or interferes with your ability to drive safely.

No Navigation or Safety Guarantee

Apex does not provide turn-by-turn directions and should not be relied upon to determine a safe or lawful route.

Apex does not guarantee that displayed information will identify:

  • Road closures
  • One-way streets
  • Construction
  • Traffic controls
  • Hazards
  • Private roads
  • Restricted areas
  • Unpaved roads
  • Changes in road layout
  • Current fuel-station availability
  • Current traffic or weather conditions

Always follow actual road signs, traffic controls, official instructions, and observable road conditions rather than information shown in the App.

Estimated Speed

Any speed shown by Apex may be calculated using device-location or motion signals.

Displayed speed may be delayed, unavailable, or inaccurate because of signal quality, device placement, environmental conditions, hardware limitations, or other factors.

Apex is not a calibrated or certified speed-measurement instrument. Do not rely on Apex instead of your vehicle’s instruments or your obligation to obey posted speed limits.

Location and Map Accuracy

Apex relies on your device, iOS Location Services, internet connectivity, and third-party map services.

Location and map information may be inaccurate, delayed, incomplete, unavailable, or inconsistent. Accuracy can be affected by:

  • GPS reception
  • Cellular or Wi-Fi connectivity
  • Tunnels, buildings, mountains, trees, and weather
  • Device hardware and settings
  • Incorrect or outdated map information
  • Third-party service interruptions

We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, availability, or timeliness of location, map, road, speed, or fuel-station information.

No Emergency Use

Do not rely on Apex for:

  • Emergency navigation
  • Police, fire, or medical assistance
  • Roadside assistance
  • Evacuation instructions
  • Search and rescue
  • Hazard warnings
  • Communication with emergency services

In an emergency, contact the appropriate emergency service directly and follow official instructions.

Eligibility

You may use Apex only if you are legally permitted to enter into these Terms.

If you use Apex while operating a vehicle, you must be legally authorized to operate that vehicle and must use the App in compliance with all applicable laws.

If you are under the age of legal majority where you live, you may use Apex only with permission from a parent or legal guardian.

Limited License

Subject to these Terms and the Apple Standard EULA, CKD&D grants you a limited, personal, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to use Apex on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by applicable App Store usage rules.

No ownership interest in Apex is transferred to you.

Prohibited Conduct

You may not:

  • Copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, sublicense, or commercially exploit Apex
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive Apex’s source code, except where applicable law expressly permits it
  • Circumvent security, licensing, access, or technical restrictions
  • Use Apex to violate any law or another person’s rights
  • Interfere with the App, its services, or supporting infrastructure
  • Use automated systems to extract, scrape, or reproduce App or map content
  • Remove or obscure copyright, trademark, Mapbox attribution, or other proprietary notices
  • Misrepresent your relationship with CKD&D or Apex

Intellectual Property

Apex, including its software, interface, graphics, visual style, branding, text, features, and original content, is owned by CKD&D or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Map content, Mapbox technology, third-party trademarks, and other third-party materials remain the property of their respective owners.

No right to use the Apex name, logo, branding, or other trademarks is granted except as necessary to use the App normally.

Third-Party Services

Apex uses third-party products and services, including Mapbox, to provide map and location functionality.

Third-party services may be governed by separate terms and privacy policies. Their availability, accuracy, security, and functionality are outside our direct control.

We are not responsible for third-party services except to the extent responsibility cannot legally be excluded.

Updates and Availability

We may:

  • Add, change, suspend, or remove features
  • Release updates or corrections
  • Change technical requirements
  • Discontinue all or part of Apex
  • Restrict access when reasonably necessary for security, legal, or operational reasons

We do not guarantee that Apex will always be available, compatible with every device, or supported indefinitely.

You may need to install updates to continue using the App.

Feedback

If you voluntarily submit suggestions, ideas, or other feedback about Apex, you grant CKD&D permission to use that feedback without restriction or compensation to you.

This does not transfer ownership of personal information contained in a support request.

Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apex is provided “as is” and “as available.”

CKD&D disclaims all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of:

  • Merchantability
  • Fitness for a particular purpose
  • Title
  • Noninfringement
  • Accuracy
  • Reliability
  • Availability
  • Security

We do not warrant that Apex will be uninterrupted, error-free, accurate, complete, secure, or suitable for any particular driving situation.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CKD&D and its owners, employees, contractors, licensors, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or relating to Apex.

This includes, without limitation, losses arising from:

  • Reliance on map, location, road, speed, or fuel-station information
  • Distracted or unsafe use
  • Vehicle damage
  • Personal injury
  • Property damage
  • Lost profits, revenue, opportunities, or data
  • Service interruptions
  • Third-party services
  • Inability to access or use Apex

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CKD&D’s aggregate liability arising from Apex will not exceed the greater of:

  1. The amount you paid directly for Apex during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim; or
  2. One hundred U.S. dollars.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions or limitations of liability. In those jurisdictions, these provisions apply only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited, including liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or other liability that applicable law prohibits us from excluding.

Suspension and Termination

You may stop using Apex at any time by deleting the App.

We may suspend or terminate your permission to use Apex if you materially violate these Terms, misuse the App, threaten the security or operation of the App, or use the App unlawfully.

Upon termination, the license granted to you ends, but provisions that by their nature should survive will remain effective.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Subject to any mandatory consumer-protection rights that apply where you live, disputes relating to these Terms or Apex will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

Nothing in this section deprives you of consumer rights or legal protections that cannot be waived under the laws of your place of residence.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

No Waiver

A failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes to Apex, third-party services, or legal requirements.

When we make changes, we will update the effective date above. Material changes may also be communicated through the App or another appropriate method.

Your continued use of Apex after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms to the extent permitted by law.
