1. Scope
These terms apply to use of the PoolPilot app (“the app”) and this website. Purchases and subscriptions are additionally subject to the terms of the respective app store (Apple Media Services or Google Play).
2. The service
PoolPilot is a native app that displays readings from your pool controller (ProCon.IP or Violet) and — as part of PoolPilot Pro — can control switch functions, dosing, the cover and setpoints. Communication happens directly on your local network. Reading values is free; write actions require an active Pro subscription or a running free trial.
3. Independence
PoolPilot is an independent project and is not affiliated with Pool Digital GmbH. “ProCon.IP” and “Violet” are trademarks of their respective owners and are used only to describe compatibility.
4. Subscription, free trial and cancellation
PoolPilot Pro is offered as a subscription (monthly or yearly). A one-time free trial starts on your first successful connection to your controller; no payment details are required during the trial.
A subscription renews automatically at the then-current price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You manage and cancel it in the subscription settings of your App Store or Google Play account. Current prices are shown in the app's purchase dialog and on the app pages.
5. Requirements
To use the app you need a compatible controller, a device with a supported operating system, and a network over which the app and controller can reach each other. You are responsible for the setup.
6. Use at your own risk and liability
Important: PoolPilot can switch real equipment (e.g. pumps, heating, dosing, the cover). You remain responsible for the safe operation of your installation and must observe your controller manufacturer's instructions and applicable safety rules. Check the effect of a switch action before you trigger it.
The app is provided “as is”; no particular fitness or uninterrupted availability is warranted. For slightly negligent conduct we are liable only for breach of a material contractual obligation, and then limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Mandatory statutory liability remains unaffected — in particular for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under the German Product Liability Act.
7. Availability and changes
Features may evolve, change or be removed. There is no claim to any particular feature or to permanent availability.
8. Intellectual property
The app, website and content are protected by copyright. You receive a simple, non-transferable right to use the app as intended.
9. Changes to these terms
We may adjust these terms, e.g. for new features or a changed legal situation. The version published at the time applies.
10. Governing law
German law applies. Mandatory consumer-protection provisions of your country of residence remain unaffected.
