OAG Digital Platform
Terms of Service
Effective from the date of Account registration
These Terms of Service (“Agreement”) are entered into between OAG Aviation Worldwide Limited, registered at 1 Capability Green, Luton, Bedfordshire, LU1 3LU, United Kingdom (“OAG”), and the individual or entity accepting these terms (“Customer”).
By creating an Account, Customer agrees to be bound by this Agreement. Customer may be an individual or a company or other legal entity. Where Customer is registering on behalf of an organisation, Customer represents that they have authority to bind that organisation to this Agreement. If Customer does not have such authority, Customer must not create an Account or use the Platform or Data.
This Agreement is effective from the date Customer creates an Account.
1. Definitions
In this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings set out below:
2. Account Registration
3. Platform Access and Subscription Plans
Licence Grant
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, OAG grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Platform and Data solely for Customer’s personal and/or internal business purposes, in accordance with the Subscription Plan selected by Customer.
Subscription Plans
OAG makes the Platform available under different Subscription Plans, including a Free Tier. Each plan determines the features and usage entitlements available to Customer and the applicable fees. Current Subscription Plans are described on OAG’s website and within the Platform. OAG may update the features available under any Subscription Plan at any time. OAG will provide existing subscribers with reasonable prior notice (usually at least 30 days) of any reduction in features that would materially affect their current use, or of any increase in fees.
Enterprise
Customers requiring higher-volume access, custom integrations, customer support, or other bespoke arrangements may contact OAG’s sales team to discuss an enterprise agreement. Enterprise arrangements are governed by a separate written agreement between OAG and Customer and are not subject to this Agreement unless expressly incorporated.
No Sublicensing or Transfer
The licence granted under this Agreement may not be sublicensed, sold, resold or transferred, without OAG’s prior written consent.
4. Acceptable Use
Customer agrees to use the Platform and Data only for lawful purposes and in accordance with this Agreement. Customer must not:
- use the Platform or Data for any criminal, fraudulent, or unlawful activity;
- use the Data, or incorporate the Data into any product or service that is designed, marketed, sold or intended for use, as:
- an end user’s sole method of ICAO GADSS (Global Aeronautical Distress and Safety System) flight-tracking compliance; or
- part of any system, product or service that supports or makes critical or navigation-based decisions for the purposes of flight following, flight tracking or flight dispatch, or that directly impacts the safety, operation or management of a flight;
- use the Data within any product or service that is designed, marketed, sold, intended for use by, or for the benefit of a competitor of OAG, and/or identify market trends to leverage against OAG’s business;
- remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices from the Platform or Data;
- download, extract, scrape, cache or otherwise reproduce all or any part of the Data for placement in a secondary database, for the purpose of creating a database or dataset that substitutes for, or reproduces the substance of, the Data or the Platform, or for supply to third parties;
- use any automated system, bot, or similar tool to extract data from the Platform outside of OAG’s authorised API access;
- introduce any malicious code or software into the Platform;
- interfere with another person’s use of the Platform, or with the security, integrity, or availability of the Platform or its underlying networks;
- decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code or underlying logic of the Platform;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Platform, its systems, or any associated networks; or
- use the Platform in a manner that exceeds the usage limits of Customer’s Subscription Plan, except through additional usage purchased in accordance with clause 5.
Commercial Use
In addition to clause 3.1 and notwithstanding clause 4.1(e), commercial use and the creation of derivative works from Data sourced via the Platform is permitted at each subscription level in line with the limitation specified below, and in conjunction with these Terms of Service and any other legal notices as documented within the Platform, including but not limited to specified caching restrictions.
Data Resale and Manipulation
Customer is prohibited from reselling, transferring, redistributing, lending, leasing, sublicensing or manipulating raw Data accessed via the Platform. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Selling or transferring datasets which only contain raw OAG Data.
- Manipulating, modifying, or obfuscating any OAG Data in an attempt to materially change the raw, original content and integrity of the Data, or mask the origins of the Data sourced from the Platform.
Unauthorised Data Storage
Customer is prohibited from storing the Data accessed via the Platform in any unsecured environment.
Notwithstanding the above, Customer is entitled to enrich and create derivative data set from the Data for commercial purposes, subject to such enrichment and creation will be done by the Customer by merging the Data with other data sources, adding value to the Data and/or the Data itself must not be the material component of the derivative product.
Customer may use OAG Data with an AI service only to the extent strictly necessary for the Permitted Usage and only where Customer has a written agreement with the AI provider, including any relevant sub-processors, that: (a) prohibits the use of OAG Data and any inputs or outputs containing OAG Data, for training, fine tuning, testing, and validation; (b) limits retention of OAG Data and any such inputs or outputs to the minimum period strictly necessary to provide the service and enables deletion; (c) prohibits onward disclosure except to sub-processors bound by equivalent written obligations and only as necessary to provide the service; and (d) requires appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect OAG Data. A Customer relying on an AI provider’s standard published enterprise or API terms that meet the substantive requirements of this clause 4.2 is treated as satisfying the written-agreement requirement, and evidence may take the form of identifying the provider and applicable terms. Customer must not upload OAG Data to any AI tool or service that does not meet the requirements of this clause 4.2. Customer must not use OAG Data to train or develop any model. Customer may create embeddings, vector stores or indexes, solely to enable retrieval within an Approved AI Service used exclusively for the Permitted Usage, provided such representations are not shared with third parties and are deleted on termination of this Agreement. Any output that reproduces, materially incorporates or enables reconstruction of OAG Data shall be treated as OAG Data. On OAG’s reasonable request, Customer shall promptly provide reasonable documentary evidence of compliance with this clause 4.2, including the applicable contractual restrictions and retention or deletion settings. Any breach of this clause 4.2 shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, should Customer wish to use the OAG Data in an AI tool outside of the current terms of this Agreement, Customer should contact OAG to enter into further discussions.
OAG reserves the right to monitor and audit usage patterns and enforce compliance with the specified usage limits and limitations, for the purpose of analysis, auditing, and improving the Platform and Data. OAG reserves the right to investigate suspected violations of clause 4 and to suspend or terminate Customer’s access if OAG reasonably believes a violation has occurred or is ongoing. OAG will not use Customer Content to train or fine-tune generalised AI models without the customer’s consent; OAG may use inputs and outputs to operate, secure, troubleshoot and improve the Platform, with content de-identified or aggregated where practicable.
