1. Introduction
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Ducktail Garage mobile application and website (collectively, the "Service"), operated by Ducktail Digital Ltd ("we", "our", or "us"), a company registered in England and Wales.
By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Service.
2. About the Service
Ducktail Garage is a motorsport content management platform that connects photographers, car owners, and racing teams. The Service allows users to upload, organise, share, and manage photographs and media related to motorsport events.
3. Account Registration
To use certain features of the Service, you must create an account. When registering, you agree to provide accurate and complete information and to keep your account details up to date.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us immediately at privacy@ducktail.team if you become aware of any unauthorised use of your account.
We reserve the right to refuse registration or to cancel accounts at our discretion.
4. Subscription Plans and Payments
4.1 Free and Paid Plans
The Service offers a free tier with limited functionality, as well as paid subscription plans that provide access to additional features. Details of available plans and pricing are displayed within the Service and may be updated from time to time.
4.2 Billing
Paid subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, depending on the plan selected). Payments are processed securely through Stripe. By subscribing to a paid plan, you authorise us to charge the applicable fees to your chosen payment method on each billing date.
4.3 Cancellation and Refunds
You may cancel your paid subscription at any time through the Service. Upon cancellation, you will receive a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of your current billing period. Following cancellation, your account will revert to the free tier at the end of the current billing period, and you will retain access to paid features until that date.
4.4 Price Changes
We may change subscription pricing from time to time. We will provide you with at least 30 days' notice of any price increase. If you do not agree to the new pricing, you may cancel your subscription before the change takes effect.
5. Content and Intellectual Property

Marketing, promoting, and advertising the Service, including use of Your Content in promotional materials, social media, and on our website.
This licence continues for as long as Your Content remains on the platform and for a reasonable period after removal to account for caches and backups. You may revoke the marketing licence for specific content by contacting us at privacy@ducktail.team.
5.3 Team and User Rights
Where Your Content is shared with a team, car owner, or other user through the Service, those parties are granted a non-exclusive licence to view, download, and use that content in connection with their own motorsport activities, subject to any restrictions you set within the platform.
5.4 Our Intellectual Property
All rights in the Service itself, including its design, branding, software, and underlying technology, are owned by Ducktail Digital Ltd or its licensors. Nothing in these Terms grants you any rights in the Service other than the limited right to use it in accordance with these Terms.

7.3 Effect of Termination
Upon termination, your right to use the Service will cease immediately. If you have an active paid subscription, you will receive a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of your billing period, unless termination was due to a material breach of these Terms by you.
