Terms of Service

By creating an account or using Nomad, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, please don't use Nomad.

Nomad is a community-driven map for explorers and overlanders, operated by DEXworks. The core map — locations, amenities, photos, reviews, and route planning — is free to use, and we intend to keep it that way. Nomad also offers an optional paid Premium subscription (see our Pricing page for current price and features, which include offline map downloads).

You can view the map and use its free/non-premium layers without an account. An account is required to submit or suggest a location, suggest an edit to an existing location, leave a review, or subscribe to Premium. You're responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for anything that happens under your account. Please provide accurate information when you sign up. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.

Nomad Premium is an optional monthly subscription, currently $8.99/month, billed and processed securely through Stripe — we never see or store your full card details. You can cancel anytime from your profile page, which stops future billing; subscriptions don't include refunds for partial billing periods. We may change Premium's price or included features going forward, but as stated on our Pricing page, an existing subscriber's price never increases.

You keep ownership of the locations, descriptions, photos, and other content you submit. By submitting it, you give Nomad a license to display, store, and distribute it on the map and related features, for as long as it remains on the platform. Don't submit anything you don't have the right to share — including private property you don't have permission to disclose, or photos you didn't take or don't have rights to.

Community submissions are reviewed before they appear on the public map, but review is manual and doesn't guarantee accuracy. See Section 7 below.

You agree not to:

• Submit false, misleading, or unsafe location information.
• Submit content that's illegal, harassing, or infringes on someone else's rights.
• Attempt to disrupt, overload, or abuse the service.
• Use Nomad to identify or disclose the location of a person or private property without their consent.

Nomad's location data — including water sources, dump stations, fuel, service centers, and boondocking or campground spots — is submitted by the community and reviewed manually. We do not independently verify that any location is safe, legal to access, currently open, or accurately described. Conditions change. Always use your own judgment, verify access and safety before traveling somewhere, and check current local conditions, regulations, and land ownership — especially for boondocking/dispersed camping spots.

Driving routes and directions are generated by a third-party routing service and may not account for your vehicle's height, width, weight, seasonal road closures, or real-time conditions. This is especially important for larger RVs and trailers. Always verify a route is appropriate for your vehicle before committing to it.

You use Nomad and travel to any location shown on it entirely at your own risk.

Nomad is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We don't guarantee the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any information on it is accurate or complete.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DEXworks and Nomad will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, including harm, loss, or expense resulting from traveling to or relying on information about any location shown on the map.

We may modify or discontinue features, and may update these terms as Nomad evolves. We'll update the date at the top of this page when the terms change. Continuing to use Nomad after a change means you accept the updated terms.
