Terms of Service

The conditions on which GPS Update Reference is offered: a free educational publication with no service attached, where each maker’s own documentation prevails.

Last revised October 4, 2026

The short version

Free to read; information only; no service of any kind; the makers’ own documentation always prevails.

Who offers this site

GPS Update Reference is published by XYZ LLC, CALIFORNIA, USA (“the publisher”). Reading the site means accepting these terms.

What the site is

The site is an educational publication. It describes how navigation devices and car systems receive new maps. It is not a service: it performs no updates, gives no device-specific advice and sells nothing.

The makers’ documentation comes first

Each maker’s own manuals, terms and pages are the authority on its products. Where anything on this site differs from them, the maker’s material prevails.

Accuracy and change

Pages are checked against the makers’ published material as of the dates shown, and they are corrected when errors are found. Makers change their products and pages without notice, so the publisher cannot promise that every statement remains current or complete.

Pages link to makers’ websites and to public agencies for reference. Those sites answer for themselves: the publisher has no say over what they publish or how they handle visitors.

Trademarks and illustrations

Product and company names are their holders’ trademarks; they appear here solely to say which product a passage describes. The illustrations are original to the site and depict no maker’s products, logos or screens.

Quoting and copying

Readers may read, print and quote the pages for personal, non-commercial purposes, with attribution. Copying whole pages or the illustrations elsewhere requires the publisher’s written permission.

Liability

So far as the law permits, the publisher accepts no liability for loss that follows from relying on these pages. Where the law makes liability impossible to exclude, these terms do not attempt it.

Governing law

The law of USA applies to these terms and to any dispute about the site.

Changes to these terms

The publisher may rewrite these terms at any time; the “last revised” line under the title records when that last happened.
