CycleSac is an app and affiliated webmap that was developed by the Sacramento Area Council of Governments, including its officers, directors, employees, agents, suppliers, licensors and its member agencies and their respective officer, directors, employees, agents, suppliers, and licensors (collectively "SACOG") to help local agencies study and understand the needs of cyclists, so that the agencies can more effectively prioritize cycling infrastructure investments.
CycleSac offers you the ability to track and record your bicycle trip routes, times, and purposes, and to view the bicycle trip routes of others, while also allowing local transportation planners to study and base decisions on users’ actual bicycle usage. CycleSac may also be used in conjunction with May is Bike Month. Use of CycleSac requires your mobile device to have and use a data connection; your carrier’s normal rates and fees will apply.
These Terms and Conditions of Use are binding and explain the services that are provided by SACOG and CycleSac, the terms under which those services are being provided, and describe how "personal information" is collected, used, and disclosed when you use CycleSac through your mobile device. "Personal information" is information that can directly be linked to an individual person including: name, addresses, photographs, age, gender, ethnicity, income, zip codes, cycling history, GPS data, your trip routes, time, speed, velocity and purposes, your iPhone's Unique Device Identifier (UDID) or Android phone's Device ID, your business name, and your contact information such as phone numbers and e-mail addresses (hereinafter "Personal Information").
These Terms and Conditions apply to all users of CycleSac, and by using CycleSac, you are accepting and agreeing to these terms. The use of CycleSac is also subject to all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, ordinances, and codes, including, but not limited to, the CycleSac Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions of Use or the CycleSac Privacy Policy, do not use CycleSac. SACOG may revise these Terms and Conditions at any time, and will notify you of any changes by posting the revised information here. Any questions concerning these Terms and Conditions of Use should be directed to cyclesac@sacog.org.
User Conduct and Content. When you use CycleSac, information — including your longitude/ latitude, speed, and velocity — will be collected. To use some of the optional web-based features of CycleSac, you can input certain additional Personal Information and will have the option to create a personal account. If you input additional Personal Information, you must provide true and accurate information. Your failure to do so may negatively impact your ability to use the features of CycleSac. If you create an account, you are responsible for any actions that take place under your account. By submitting content to the CycleSac app (whether by inputting Personal Information such as your name, email address, age, etc., or by allowing the app to collect automatically generated information such as your GPS location), you grant SACOG a non-exclusive, non-revocable, worldwide, transferable, royalty-free, perpetual right to use that information in any manner or media now or later developed, for any purpose — commercial, advertising, or otherwise — including the right to translate, display, reproduce, modify, create derivative works, sublicense, distribute, assign, and commercialize without any payment due to you; provided, however, that such use shall be in accordance with the CycleSac Privacy Policy. SACOG does not monitor or prescreen user-generated content before it is posted and does not undertake any obligation or liability related to any such content, but reserves the right to remove or edit any such content or to terminate your account for any reason. You are solely and personally responsible for any content that you post to your social networking account(s).
Age Restrictions. CycleSac is intended solely for use by users who are 13 years of age or older, and it is a violation of these terms of use for anyone under the age of 13 to register. By downloading and using CycleSac, you represent and warrant that you are 13 years or older. If you are 13 or older, but under the age of 18, you must review these terms with your parent(s) or legal guardian(s) to ensure that both you and your parent(s) or legal guardian(s) understand and consent to the terms. A parent or legal guardian accepting these terms for the benefit of a minor agrees and accepts full responsibility for the minor’s use of CycleSac, including all financial charges and legal liability that the minor may incur.

You understand that all your athletic and/or recreational activities, including bicycling while using CycleSac, may have inherent, implicit, and/or express risks of bodily injury or death and/or property damage. You understand and agree that you voluntarily and at your own free will assume all known and unknown risks associated with such athletic or recreational activities, even if such risks may be claimed to be caused in whole or in part by the actions, inactions, or negligence of SACOG or others. You understand that SACOG will not carry out and is not responsible for any physical inspection, supervision, or preparation of any of the routes displayed in the CycleSac app and webmap, and that the inclusion of a route is in no way an endorsement or recommendation of any roadway, path, or other route for bicycling, nor are they an indication that any roadway, path, or other route is intended for use by bicyclists. Potential hazards and obstructions may exist on the routes shown, and SACOG and its partner agencies in no way warrant the safety or fitness of the routes shown.
