AI Disclaimer

MyDeckhand uses artificial intelligence ("AI") to provide information, suggestions and assistance relating to boats, boating equipment, maintenance, repairs, servicing and general boating questions.

The AI features are provided for general informational and educational purposes only.

AI-generated information should not be treated as professional, engineering, legal, safety, navigation or emergency advice.

AI-generated responses may contain errors, omissions, outdated information or incorrect recommendations.

MyDeckhand does not guarantee that any AI-generated response is accurate, complete, current or suitable for your particular boat, equipment or circumstances.

You are responsible for independently checking information before relying on it.

Where appropriate, you should consult the relevant manufacturer's documentation, a qualified marine engineer, boatyard, surveyor or other suitably qualified professional.

MyDeckhand does not provide certified marine engineering services or professional engineering advice.

Any maintenance, repair, troubleshooting or technical information provided by the AI is general information only.

Do not carry out a repair or modification solely because the MyDeckhand AI has suggested it.

Before carrying out work that could affect the safety, seaworthiness or operation of your boat, you should obtain appropriate professional advice and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

MyDeckhand AI must not be relied upon for emergency assistance, distress situations, collision avoidance, navigation, weather decisions, passage planning or other time-critical safety decisions.

In an emergency or situation involving immediate danger to people, vessels or property, contact the appropriate emergency or maritime authority and use the recognised safety procedures and equipment available to you.

MyDeckhand is not a substitute for proper training, qualifications, navigational equipment, safety equipment, official navigation information or professional assistance.

Where information relates to a specific engine, vessel, component or piece of equipment, you should always check the manufacturer's official documentation and specifications.

If there is any difference between information provided by MyDeckhand AI and the manufacturer's instructions, the manufacturer's instructions should take priority.

The accuracy of AI responses may depend on the information provided by you.

If you provide incomplete, inaccurate or incorrect information about your vessel, engine, equipment, fault or circumstances, the AI response may also be inaccurate.

You should check that any information you enter into MyDeckhand is accurate and up to date.

Any maintenance suggestions, service recommendations, summaries, logs or other content generated with the assistance of AI should be reviewed by you before being relied upon or used as an official maintenance or service record.

MyDeckhand does not independently verify the accuracy of information entered or generated within your account.

MyDeckhand may use third-party artificial intelligence technologies and services to process information and generate responses.

Depending on the feature being used, information you provide may be processed by these services in accordance with the MyDeckhand Privacy Policy and the applicable terms of those third-party providers.

MyDeckhand will take reasonable steps to protect information processed through its AI features.

MyDeckhand does not guarantee that using its AI features will identify the cause of a fault, prevent a breakdown, improve vessel performance, reduce maintenance costs or produce any particular outcome.

Boat maintenance and operation involve risks, and the appropriate course of action can depend on the individual vessel, equipment, environment and circumstances.

If you believe that a MyDeckhand AI response is incorrect, misleading or potentially unsafe, please contact us at: admin@mydeckhand.co.uk

Where possible, please provide the question asked and the AI response so that we can investigate and improve the service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, MyDeckhand Ltd is not responsible for losses, damage, injury or other consequences arising from reliance on AI-generated information where such liability can lawfully be excluded or limited.

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited under applicable UK law.

By using the MyDeckhand AI features, you acknowledge that AI-generated information is provided as an assistance tool and not as a replacement for your own judgement or qualified professional advice.

You remain responsible for decisions relating to the operation, maintenance, repair, safety and seaworthiness of your vessel.

We may update this AI Disclaimer from time to time to reflect changes to our AI features, services or legal requirements.

The latest version will be made available through the MyDeckhand website or app.
