Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-10-20 · Operator: MapBin.app · Contact: support@mapbin.app

These terms govern your use of MapBin at https://mapbin.app, operated by MapBin.app. Using the service means you accept them.

1. What the service does

MapBin reads ECU calibration files, shows the maps inside them, and applies modifications you select. Some modifications are free; others are paid, either per use or from a credit balance. Files are processed on our servers and stored in your account if you save them.

We may change, add or withdraw features. If we withdraw something you have paid for and not yet used, contact us and we will refund it.

2. Your account

• You must be at least 16 years old, or the age of digital consent where you live if that is higher.
• Give accurate registration details and keep your sign-in secure. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
• One person per account. Do not share credentials or resell access.
• Tell us promptly at support@mapbin.app if you think someone else is using your account.

3. Acceptable use

Do not:

• upload files you have no right to, or that contain someone else's personal data;
• use the service to defeat, disable or mask emissions controls on a vehicle used on public roads, or to alter recorded mileage — the software deliberately does not support odometer editing, and attempting it is a misuse of the service;
• attack, overload, scrape or reverse-engineer the service, or try to reach parts of it you have not been granted;
• resell, redistribute or publish the tuning engine, its outputs or its definitions as your own product.

Breaking these rules can get your account suspended or closed, and paid balances are not refunded where the closure follows a serious breach.

4. Vehicle modification — risk, warranty and legality

This is the part that matters most, so it is in plain words.

• You are the tuner. You choose the file, the modification and the values. The service applies what you ask for. It does not know your vehicle, its hardware, its condition or its history, and it cannot judge whether a change is safe for it.
• Flashing can destroy an ECU or an engine. An interrupted write, a mismatched file or an unsuitable calibration can leave a vehicle unable to start, or damage it mechanically. Verify every file before you write it, and use equipment that can recover a failed flash.
• Checksums and verification are your responsibility. Where the service corrects checksums it says so; where it does not, it says that too. Do not flash a file you have not checked.
• Legality is local and it is yours to establish. Modified engine software is restricted or prohibited for road use in many countries, and typically requires re-approval and notification to your insurer. Racing or off-road use may be treated differently. Find out before you drive.
• Warranties. Modifying ECU software usually voids the manufacturer's warranty on the powertrain and may void it entirely.

Output is provided for you to evaluate and test. It is not certified, homologated or approved for any particular vehicle or purpose.

5. Payments

• Prices are shown before you pay and include any tax where we are required to charge it. Payment is processed by Stripe; we never see your card details.
• Credits and one-off purchases unlock a specific modification. Credits do not expire while your account is open and have no cash value.
• Because a patched file is delivered immediately and cannot be returned, purchases are generally final once delivered. If the service fails to produce a working file for your bin, contact us with your order reference and we will refund it.
• A refund does not follow from a result you did not like, from flashing the wrong file, or from damage to a vehicle.

6. Your files and your rights in them

You keep ownership of the files you upload. You grant us only the permission needed to run the service: to store, process and modify your files so we can show and patch them, and to keep the versions you save. We do not use your files to build or improve products for other customers beyond anonymous ECU coverage counts, described in the Privacy Policy.

The tuning engine, its definitions, the interface and the site content remain ours.

7. Availability

We aim to keep the service up but do not guarantee it. It may be unavailable for maintenance, updates or reasons beyond our control. Keep your own backups of files that matter to you — an account is not a backup service.

8. No warranty

The service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and that results will be accurate, uninterrupted or error-free.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, MapBin.app is not liable for damage to vehicles, engines, ECUs or other property, for loss of data, profit, time or business, for personal injury arising from the use of modified calibrations, or for any indirect or consequential loss. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

Nothing here excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded — and if you are a consumer, your statutory rights are unaffected.

10. Indemnity

If someone brings a claim against us because of how you used the service — including a vehicle you modified or a file you uploaded — you agree to cover our reasonable costs in dealing with it.

11. Suspension and termination

You may close your account at any time by writing to support@mapbin.app. We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, that is used unlawfully, or where we are required to. We will tell you why unless the law prevents it.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top changes, and material changes are announced to account holders by email. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept it; if you do not, close your account.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of , and its courts have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory law of the country where you live.
