Last updated: 2026-05-20
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) form a binding agreement between you (“you” or “User”) and Tech Waves LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tech Waves,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your access to and use of FlightPing, located at flightping.xyzand any associated subdomains, applications, APIs, and services (collectively, the “Service”). By creating an account, accessing, or using the Service, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Section 13 contains a binding arbitration clause and a class-action waiver that affect your legal rights. Please read it carefully.
1. The Service
FlightPing is an informational tool that monitors publicly visible seat availability for flights operated by United Airlines and notifies you by email when seats matching your stated preferences appear. The Service is provided strictly for personal, non-commercial use. Tech Waves is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way associated with United Airlines, Inc., the Star Alliance, or any airline, airport, travel agency, or government body. All airline names, logos, and trademarks are the property of their respective owners and are used solely for identification purposes (nominative fair use).
2. Eligibility & account
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater) and able to form a legally binding contract to use the Service. The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. You sign in with a Google account, and you are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of that account and for all activity occurring under it. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to promptly notify us of any unauthorized access or use.
3. Plans, billing & refunds
FlightPing offers a Free plan permitting one (1) active alert, and paid plans (Starter at $9/month and Pro at $19/month, or such other prices as published on the Service) which raise the active-alert quota. Paid plans are billed in advance on a recurring monthly basis through Stripe, Inc., and renew automaticallyuntil canceled by you through the billing portal accessible from your account. Prices are exclusive of any applicable taxes, which you are responsible for paying. We may change prices on prospective renewals with at least seven (7) days' notice by email or in-app. All fees are non-refundable and we do not provide refunds or credits for partial subscription periods, unused alerts, downtime, downgrades, or features removed from your plan, except where required by applicable law. Upon cancellation, your plan remains active through the end of the period for which you have already paid, after which your account reverts to the Free plan.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to, and not to permit any third party to: (a) copy, scrape, harvest, republish, resell, sublicense, or redistribute any data, output, or content obtained from the Service; (b) use the Service or its outputs to develop or train any competing product, machine learning model, or dataset; (c) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code or underlying algorithms of the Service; (d) use the Service to interfere with, overload, probe, or disrupt United Airlines' or any third party's systems; (e) share, sell, or transfer your account, or use a single account on behalf of multiple end users to circumvent plan quotas; (f) use the Service in violation of any law, regulation, sanctions program, airline contract of carriage, or third-party terms of service; (g) submit alerts or content that is fraudulent, abusive, harassing, or contains malware; or (h) bypass, disable, or interfere with any security or rate-limiting feature of the Service. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate this section without notice and without refund.
5. No travel advice; no guarantees
The Service is an informational notification tool. It does notconstitute travel, financial, legal, or fiduciary advice. Seat availability is inherently volatile and is controlled solely by the operating carrier. FlightPing checks availability on an approximately two-hour cadence and we make no representation or warranty that: (i) you will receive an alert before any particular seat is taken; (ii) seats identified as available will remain available for any length of time, or be assignable to you; (iii) the underlying third-party data sources are accurate, complete, or available; (iv) the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; or (v) the Service will be compatible with all devices, email providers, or networks. You are solely responsible for verifying availability directly with the airline before relying on any alert to make travel decisions.
6. Intellectual property
The Service, including all software, text, graphics, logos, designs, the “FlightPing” name and mark, and all associated intellectual property rights, is and shall remain the exclusive property of Tech Waves LLC and its licensors. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Service for your personal, non-commercial purposes. No other rights are granted by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.
7. Feedback
If you submit suggestions, ideas, or feedback regarding the Service, you grant Tech Waves a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, modify, and exploit such feedback for any purpose without compensation or attribution.
8. Third-party services
The Service relies on third-party providers including Google (authentication), Neon (database), Vercel (hosting), Stripe (payments), Resend (email delivery), and PostHog (analytics). Your use of those providers is subject to their respective terms, and Tech Waves is not responsible for their acts or omissions.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TECH WAVES AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (a) FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50.00) OR (b) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES; THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS APPLY TO YOU ONLY TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
11. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Tech Waves LLC, its affiliates, and their respective officers, members, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any rights of a third party, including any airline; or (d) any content you submit to the Service. Tech Waves reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defense.
12. Termination
You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time through the billing portal. We may suspend or terminate your access to all or part of the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms, suspected fraud or abuse, non-payment, or discontinuation of the Service. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately; sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, and 15) shall survive.
13. Governing law, arbitration & class-action waiver
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
Binding arbitration.Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms (a “Dispute”) that cannot be resolved through good-faith negotiations within thirty (30) days shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, take place in Wilmington, Delaware (or by videoconference at your election), and be conducted in English. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Class-action waiver.YOU AND TECH WAVES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If this class-action waiver is found unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 13 is void.
Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual action in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights.
30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this Section 13 by sending a written notice to legal@flightping.xyz within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your full name, account email, and your election to opt out of arbitration.
14. Changes to the Service and these Terms
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue all or any portion of the Service at any time. We may amend these Terms by posting a revised version at this URL and updating the “Last updated” date; if the changes are material, we will provide reasonable advance notice by email or in-app. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of an amendment constitutes your acceptance of the amended Terms.
15. General
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Tech Waves regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Notices to you may be sent to the email associated with your account; notices to us must be sent to the address below.
