Terms of Service
The short version. Iron Route GPS is a navigation aid for commercial trucks. It is a tool, not a driver. You are responsible for your truck, your route, your hours of service, and for obeying every posted sign and restriction, even when the app says otherwise. Use it for legitimate trucking work, pay your subscription if you have one, and you can leave whenever you want. Disputes go to arbitration in New Jersey.
1. Acceptance
By creating an account or using Iron Route GPS — the website at ironroutegps.com, the installable web app, or the iOS or Android app — you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
How you accept. Before you create an account or sign in, you tick three separate boxes: one to accept these Terms, one to accept the Privacy Policy, and one to confirm that you are at least 18 years old. Each box has a link to the document it refers to. Signing in with Google or Apple does not skip them.
We keep a record of your acceptance. When you tick the boxes we store the date and time, the version of each document and a fingerprint (SHA-256) of the exact text published at that moment, the wording of each box in your language, how you signed in (email code, Google, Apple or password), the device type and app version, your IP address and your browser or app identifier. We keep that record so we can prove what you agreed to and when, including after you delete your account (see the Privacy Policy).
2. What the service is
Iron Route GPS provides commercial-truck navigation and related tools: truck-aware routing based on the vehicle profile you enter, turn-by-turn guidance, toll estimation, weather along the route, fuel and rest-stop information, hours-of-service timers, IFTA mileage tracking by jurisdiction, and offline map caching.
Some features are free and some require a paid subscription. The tiers, features and prices in effect are the ones displayed in the app or on this website at the moment you subscribe.
3. Safety — read this one
Do not operate the app while the vehicle is in motion. Set your route before you roll. Interacting with a screen while driving a commercial motor vehicle is dangerous and is prohibited by federal and state law.
The app is an aid, not an authority. Posted signs, bridge and tunnel restrictions, weight limits, seasonal closures, local ordinances, escort requirements, hazmat routing rules and the instructions of law enforcement always override anything Iron Route shows you. If the app routes you toward a restriction, obey the sign, not the app.
Truck-aware routing is best effort. It depends on the vehicle profile you enter and on third-party road data that can be incomplete, out of date, or wrong. We do not guarantee that any route is legal, passable, or safe for your vehicle. Verifying that is the driver's responsibility and, under 49 CFR, cannot be delegated to a piece of software.
Hours of service. The HOS timer is a convenience feature. It is not an electronic logging device, it is not FMCSA-certified as an ELD, and it does not satisfy any recordkeeping obligation under 49 CFR Part 395. Keep using your ELD.
GPS can fail. Signal drops, dead zones, tunnels, and cached maps that are out of date are normal conditions. Carry a backup means of navigation.
4. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and hold, or be in the process of obtaining, a Commercial Driver's License, or otherwise be authorized to manage commercial freight operations in the United States or Canada. You are responsible for everything done under your account.
Iron Route is not directed to children. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 18, we close it and delete its data; if you believe a child under 13 has given us personal information, write to privacy@ironroutegps.com and we will delete it.
5. Accounts
Give accurate registration information and keep it current. Keep your credentials to yourself; sharing a login with someone who is not authorized is a breach of these Terms. Tell us promptly at support@ironroutegps.com if you believe your account has been compromised.
6. Subscriptions, renewals and cancellation
- Free features stay usable without a card.
- Paid subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or yearly, as shown) at the price shown when you subscribed, until you cancel. The price, the billing period, the fact that it renews automatically and how to cancel are shown next to the subscribe button before you buy.
- Free trial. If a free trial is offered, its length is shown before you start it. It is for first-time subscribers. When it ends you are charged the price of the plan you chose, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends.
- Cancel anytime. If you subscribed through the app, cancel in the app's billing screen. If you subscribed through the Apple App Store or Google Play, you must cancel in that store's subscription settings — we cannot cancel a store subscription for you, and deleting your account does not stop it.
- After cancellation you keep paid access until the end of the period you already paid for. We do not prorate partial periods except where law requires it.
- Price changes are notified at least 30 days in advance and never apply to a period you already paid for.
- Refunds. See our Refund Policy. In short: purchases made through the App Store or Google Play follow those stores' refund processes; on top of that, if you ask within 5 business days of your first charge we will refund it where we can (Google Play) or help you request it (Apple). For purchases billed directly by us, write to support@ironroutegps.com.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the service for any unlawful purpose, including moving illegal cargo, evading fuel taxes, or filing false IFTA returns.
- Enter a vehicle profile you know to be false in order to obtain a route your vehicle is not legally permitted to take.
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code or API keys.
- Bypass authentication, rate limits, subscription checks, or trial restrictions.
- Resell or sublicense access, or share credentials with unauthorized users.
- Scrape, bulk-download, or re-distribute map, routing, or toll data obtained through the app. That data is licensed to us by third parties and we cannot pass those rights on to you.
- Introduce malicious code or interfere with the service or with other users.
- Post false, misleading or abusive reports to the shared map, or use reports to harass anyone.
Reports on the shared map
Reports use a fixed list of categories (for example police, accident, low bridge) and carry no free text. There is no tolerance for false or abusive reports. Any driver can flag a report with Report this alert; flagged reports are taken off the map, and we may block the devices or accounts that abuse the shared map, without notice. To report a problem, write to support@ironroutegps.com.
8. Your content
You keep ownership of your trips, vehicle profiles, saved routes and any documents you upload. You grant us only the limited licence needed to store, transmit and process that content in order to run the service for you. We do not claim ownership of it and we do not use it to train AI models.
9. Our content
The app, its interface, its name and logo, and the software behind it belong to TruckerProfit Inc. Your subscription is a limited, personal, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app — it is not a sale of the software. Map data belongs to its respective providers and to the OpenStreetMap contributors, and is used under their licences.
10. Third-party services
Iron Route relies on third-party providers for maps, routing, tolls, weather and payments, listed in the Privacy Policy. Their availability and accuracy are outside our control, and an outage or an error at one of them can degrade or interrupt the service.
11. Disclaimers
The service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Specifically, and without limiting Section 3, Iron Route is not:
- A guarantee that a route is legal, passable, or safe for your vehicle.
- An electronic logging device or a substitute for one.
- Professional tax, accounting, or legal advice. IFTA filings prepared with our numbers remain your legal responsibility.
- A guarantee that a toll, fuel, or arrival-time estimate will match reality.
- An operator of a motor vehicle. The driver drives.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, TruckerProfit Inc. is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive or consequential damages, nor for lost profits, lost loads, fines, citations, towing, detention, cargo damage, or data loss arising from your use of the service. Our total cumulative liability for any claim is limited to the greater of (a) US$100 or (b) what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
13. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TruckerProfit Inc., its officers and employees, against any claim arising out of your use of the service in violation of these Terms or of applicable law.
14. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate an account that violates these Terms, attempts fraud, or fails to pay. You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time — see Section 8 of the Privacy Policy. Sections 8 through 16 survive termination.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in Newark, New Jersey, instead of in court. This means that you and TruckerProfit Inc. each give up the right to have the dispute decided by a judge or a jury in a court of law, and to bring or join a class action. Either party may still bring an individual claim in small-claims court. Nothing in this section prevents you from reporting a safety concern to any regulator.
16. Changes
We may update these Terms. Material changes are notified to active users by email at least 30 days before they take effect, and continuing to use the service after that date means you accept them.
