Terms of use

Last updated 7 November 2026

These terms cover your use of the Hotspot app and website. By using Hotspot you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use it.

Drive safely, and within the law

• You are always responsible for how you drive. Obey the speed limit, road signs and the police.
• Hotspot is a help, not a guarantee. Cameras, limits and hazards can be missing, out of date or wrong.
• Don’t handle your phone while driving. Set up your trip before you move, or let a passenger do it.
• Hotspot is meant to help you drive within the limit, not to avoid being caught breaking it.

Your account

You can use Hotspot without an account. If you make one, give your real name and a phone number or email address you own, and keep your sign-in codes to yourself. You can delete your account at any time in Settings. We keep it for 30 days first: if you log in again in that time, it comes back. After that it’s deleted for good.

Reports

Only report what you’ve actually seen. Don’t send false, misleading or abusive reports. Every report is checked by a person before it changes the map, and we can reject any report. By sending one, you let us use it to keep the map accurate for everyone.

Things you must not do

• Try to break, overload or get around the limits of the app or its servers.
• Copy the hotspot data in bulk, or use it to build another service.
• Use Hotspot for anything illegal.

We can suspend or delete accounts that break these rules.

Maps and data from others

Map data comes from OpenStreetMap contributors, with map pieces from OpenFreeMap and Maptoolkit. Their own terms apply to that data.

No warranty

Hotspot is free and provided as it is. We work to keep it accurate and running, but we can’t promise it will always be available, complete or error-free. As far as the law allows, we aren’t responsible for fines, accidents, or any other loss that comes from using it, or from relying on it.

Privacy

How we handle your data, and which phone permissions the app asks for and why, is in the privacy policy.

Changes

We may update these terms. We’ll change the date at the top, and show big changes in the app. Using Hotspot after a change means you accept the new terms.

Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Ghana.
