BOWSER

Terms of Use

Last updated: 15 June 2026

These Terms govern your use of the BOWSER mobile app. By downloading or using the app, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

1. The app

BOWSER helps you find fuel prices and plan trips in Australia. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app for your own non-commercial use, subject to these Terms and the app store's terms.

2. Fuel prices & data are indicative

Fuel prices, station locations, traffic, camera, weather, and forecast information come from third-party and government sources and may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. Prices change frequently and may differ from what you pay at the pump. Forecasts and "best day to fill" guidance are estimates, not guarantees. Always confirm the actual price and conditions before purchasing or relying on any information in the app. Use the app responsibly and obey all road rules, and do not interact with the app while driving.

3. Savings claims

Any reference to potential savings (e.g. "$200 to $400 a year") is a general, indicative figure based on published Australian averages (ABS vehicle-use data and ACCC petrol price-cycle data), not a promise of the savings you will achieve. Your actual savings depend on your driving, location, vehicle, fuel type, and prices at the time. We do not guarantee any specific saving.

4. BOWSER+ subscription

What it is. BOWSER+ is an optional auto-renewing subscription that unlocks premium features (full price & cycle analysis, cheapest-fuel-along-route planner, cycle-low alerts, full garage) and removes ads. The core app remains free.
Free trial. Eligible new subscribers may start with a free trial. If you don't cancel before the trial ends, it automatically converts to a paid subscription at the price shown in the app. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited if you buy a subscription during the trial.
Billing & auto-renewal. Payment is charged to your Apple App Store or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically for the same period at the then-current price unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.
Managing & cancelling. You can manage or cancel your subscription anytime in your device's account settings (App Store or Google Play). Cancelling stops future renewals; it does not retroactively refund the current period.
Prices. Current prices are shown in the app before you purchase and may vary by region and over time. We may change subscription prices; changes won't affect a period you've already paid for.
Refunds. Purchases are handled by the app stores, so refunds are subject to Apple's and Google's policies. We can't directly process refunds for store purchases.

5. Ads

The free version displays advertising. See our Privacy Policy for how advertising data is handled.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the app, including reverse-engineering it (except as permitted by law), scraping or bulk-extracting its data, interfering with its operation, or using it for any unlawful purpose.

7. Intellectual property

The app, its name, branding, and content (excluding third-party data) are owned by us or our licensors. These Terms don't transfer any ownership to you.

8. Your consumer rights

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or other law that cannot be lawfully excluded. Where our liability can be limited, it is limited to re-supplying the app or the cost of doing so.

9. Disclaimers & liability

Except for rights that cannot be excluded (see section 8), the app is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for any loss arising from your reliance on fuel prices, forecasts, routes, or other information in the app.

10. Changes & termination

We may update the app and these Terms from time to time; material changes are shown by the "Last updated" date. We may suspend or stop providing the app. You may stop using it at any time by deleting it.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of its courts.
