Terms of Service
Effective November 1, 2026
These terms govern your use of plungeworthy.com ("Plungeworthy," "we," "us"). By using the site you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use the site.
Assumption of risk — read this
Plungeworthy is an information directory. We describe natural, unsupervised, and often remote places. Visiting them — and entering any water, hot or cold — is inherently dangerous. You use this site, and you visit any place it describes, entirely at your own risk.
Hazards include but are not limited to: drowning, hypothermia, scalding water, flash floods, falls from height, slippery and unstable terrain, changing flows, contaminated or disease-carrying water, wildlife, remoteness from medical care, and lack of cell coverage. Conditions change constantly and our information may be outdated, incomplete, or wrong. A pin marks a feature — not a trail, a legal route of access, or a safe place to enter the water.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Plungeworthy and its operators are not liable for any injury, death, property damage, trespass claim, or other loss arising from your use of the site or your visit to any location it describes. You are solely responsible for verifying access and land ownership, judging conditions, knowing your own limits, and complying with all laws. If you are not prepared to accept these risks, do not visit the places listed here.
The information we publish
Content is provided "as is," without warranty of any kind — express or implied — including accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or currency. Scores, verdicts, and descriptions are editorial opinions derived from records and our research, not safety ratings.
Your content
If you email us a photo or a correction, you keep ownership and grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual license to host, display, adapt, and distribute it on Plungeworthy and in materials that promote it, credited to you. Send only what you have rights to. We may edit, reject, or remove anything at our discretion.
Acceptable use
Don't scrape at scale, interfere with the service, or use the site to plan unlawful activity, including trespass.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Plungeworthy and its operators are not liable for any claim or damages of any kind arising out of the site, whether direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential. You agree to indemnify us against claims arising from your content or your violation of these terms. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
Changes
We may update these terms; the effective date above reflects the latest version. Continued use after a change is acceptance.
