Terms & Conditions
Last updated: June 30, 2026
These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of xlokk.com and any related pages, features, and services (together, the “Service”). The Service is operated by Compitpros.com LLC, an Ohio limited liability company, doing business as xlokk.com (“xlokk,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Disclaimer, each of which is incorporated here by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Eligibility
The Service is not directed to children. You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country, if higher) to use the Service, and at least 18 to create an account. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
2. The Service
xlokk provides aggregated marine and weather information for the Great Lakes for general informational purposes only. We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time without notice or liability. The Service is provided free of charge; if we introduce paid features in the future, they will be governed by additional terms presented at that time.
3. Informational Nature; No Reliance
The information on the Service is not a substitute for official forecasts, warnings, charts, or advice, and must not be relied upon for navigation or for any decision affecting safety of life or property. Our Disclaimer governs your use of all information on the Service and forms part of these Terms.
4. License and Acceptable Use
We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your own non-commercial purposes. You agree not to:
- scrape, harvest, bulk-download, mirror, resell, or redistribute data, feeds, or content from the Service, or build a competing or commercial product from them, without our prior written permission;
- copy, modify, reverse engineer, or create derivative works of the Service or its software, except as permitted by applicable open-source licenses;
- interfere with, overload, or disrupt the Service or its servers or networks, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of it;
- use the Service in violation of any applicable law or the rights of others; or
- remove or obscure any notice, attribution, or branding on the Service.
5. Accounts
Some features require an account. You agree to provide accurate information, to keep your login credentials confidential, and to be responsible for all activity under your account. Notify us promptly at helm@xlokk.com if you suspect unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
6. Intellectual Property
The Service — including its design, layout, original text, graphics, code, and the xlokk name and branding — is owned by Compitpros.com LLC and protected by intellectual property laws. Underlying weather and marine data, map tiles, photographs, video, and third-party software remain the property of their respective owners and are credited on our Credits page; your use of them is subject to the rights of those owners.
7. Third-Party Data and Services
The Service relies on third-party and government data sources and software. We do not control, and are not responsible for, the accuracy, availability, or content of those sources, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS MORE FULLY SET OUT IN OUR DISCLAIMER, WHICH IS INCORPORATED INTO THESE TERMS.
9. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPITPROS.COM LLC AND ITS OWNERS, MEMBERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND DATA SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS, LOSS OF A VESSEL, LOSS OF DATA, OR ECONOMIC LOSS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100). Because the Service is provided free of charge, these limitations reflect the basis of the bargain between you and us.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, and nothing affects mandatory consumer-protection rights you may have under the law of your country or state of residence.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Compitpros.com LLC and its owners, members, officers, employees, and contractors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without cause or notice. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law — will survive.
12. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Before filing any claim, you agree to first contact us at helm@xlokk.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the matter informally. Subject to the arbitration agreement in Section 13 and to any mandatory rights of consumers in their home jurisdiction, you agree that the state and federal courts located in the State of Ohio will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute that is not subject to arbitration or is not resolved informally.
13. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO BRING A CLAIM IN COURT AND TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.
(a) Agreement to arbitrate. Except for the matters described in subsection (d), you and Compitpros.com LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration may proceed by telephone, video, or written submissions where the rules allow, or in person in the State of Ohio, or at another location the parties agree on.
(b) Class action waiver. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not preside over any form of class or representative proceeding. If this class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim — and only that claim — will be severed from arbitration and may proceed in court.
(c) 30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this Section 13 within 30 days after you first accept these Terms (or, if you are an existing user, within 30 days after the date this Section is added) by emailing helm@xlokk.com with your name and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, Section 12 governs disputes between us. Opting out of this Section has no effect on any other part of these Terms.
(d) Exceptions. Either party may (i) bring an individual claim in a small-claims court that has jurisdiction, and (ii) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court to protect or enforce intellectual property rights or to stop unauthorized access to or use of the Service.
(e) Limits. This Section 13 applies only to the extent permitted by applicable law and does not waive any mandatory rights of consumers under the law of their country or state of residence. Consumers in the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions where pre-dispute arbitration agreements or class action waivers are not enforceable against consumers are not bound by this Section to the extent the law so provides.
14. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
15. Copyright Complaints
If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice with sufficient detail to identify the work and the material, your contact information, and a statement of good-faith belief, to helm@xlokk.com. We will respond appropriately, which may include removing the material.
16. General
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Disclaimer, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
