The information contained on the GeoSphere website (the "Service") is for general information and educational purposes only. By accessing and using this Service, you acknowledge and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this Disclaimer.

GeoSphere is provided by Francis Nyantakyi ("I," "me," or "my"). While I strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information, I make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the information, products, services, or related graphics contained on the Service.

News Content:

All news articles and information displayed on GeoSphere are sourced from third-party news APIs and content providers. The news content is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as the sole source of information for making decisions. I do not verify, endorse, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any news content displayed.

Trivia & Educational Content:

The trivia questions and geographical information provided through our Service are intended solely for entertainment and educational purposes. While we endeavor to present accurate information, trivia content may contain errors or outdated information. Users should not rely on trivia content for academic, professional, or critical decision-making purposes.

Geographic Data:

Geographic information, including maps, location data, and coordinates, are provided by third-party mapping services and APIs. The accuracy of geographic data may vary and should not be used for navigation, emergency services, or situations where precise location data is critical to safety or decision-making.

GeoSphere integrates content and services from various third-party providers and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), including but not limited to:

• Mapbox: Interactive mapping and geographic visualization services
• WorldNewsAPI: News articles and current events information
• OpenTriviaDB: Trivia questions and educational content
• Numbers API: Mathematical and numerical facts

I do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for any third-party content, websites, products, or services. The inclusion of any third-party content does not imply my endorsement or affiliation. Users access third-party content at their own risk and should review the terms of service and privacy policies of these third-party providers.

I am not responsible for the availability, accuracy, content, or functionality of third-party services. Third-party providers may modify, suspend, or discontinue their services at any time without notice, which may affect the functionality of GeoSphere.

GeoSphere may contain links to external websites, news sources, and other online resources that are not owned, controlled, or maintained by me. These links are provided for convenience and informational purposes only.

I have no control over the nature, content, or availability of external sites. The inclusion of any links does not necessarily imply a recommendation or endorsement of the views, content, products, or services contained therein. I am not responsible for the content, privacy policies, terms of service, or practices of any external websites or resources.

Users acknowledge that when they click on external links and leave GeoSphere, they do so at their own risk. I shall not be held liable for any damages, losses, or issues that may arise from accessing external websites or using external services.

GeoSphere is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law, I disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to:

• Implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose
• Warranties regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of content
• Warranties that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free
• Warranties regarding the results that may be obtained from the use of the Service
• Warranties regarding the quality of any products, services, information, or other material obtained through the Service

I do not warrant that defects will be corrected, or that the Service or the servers that make it available are free of viruses or other harmful components. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by users from me or through the Service shall create any warranty not expressly stated herein.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Francis Nyantakyi, GeoSphere, or any affiliates, partners, employees, or agents be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to:

• Loss of profits, revenue, data, or use
• Business interruption or lost business opportunities
• Personal injury or property damage
• Costs of procurement of substitute goods or services
• Any other damages or losses arising out of or related to your use or inability to use the Service

This limitation applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if I have been advised of the possibility of such damage. Because some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, my liability in such jurisdictions shall be limited to the extent permitted by law.

You specifically acknowledge that I shall not be liable for user submissions, content, or the defamatory, offensive, or illegal conduct of any third party, and that the risk of harm or damage from the foregoing rests entirely with you.

No Personal Data Collection:

GeoSphere does not collect, store, or process personally identifiable information (PII) through the Service itself. However, third-party services and APIs integrated into GeoSphere may collect data according to their own privacy policies. Users are encouraged to review the privacy policies of third-party providers.

Cookies & Tracking:

Third-party services integrated into GeoSphere (such as Mapbox) may use cookies, tracking pixels, or similar technologies. I have no control over these technologies and am not responsible for the data collection practices of third-party providers.
