Draft, pending legal review. Last updated: November 8, 2026.

Index

1. These terms

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Mernell technology ("Mernell", "we", "us"). They apply to your use of this website and the information, documentation and other content available through it (the "Services").

Specific products, software or the SDK may have their own terms or licence. If those conflict with these Terms, the specific terms apply to that product.

2. Your agreement

By accessing or using the Services you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms, and that you have the authority to accept them for yourself and for anyone you represent. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

3. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and update the date at the top. If a change is material, we will make reasonable efforts to post a prominent notice on this website. Changes take effect when posted, except that material changes take effect 30 days after they are posted. If you continue to use the Services after that, you accept the changes.

4. Product information

The Link family is in development. Specifications, features, compatibility and availability described in the Services may change at any time before or after release. Nothing in the Services is an offer to sell or a commitment to deliver any product.

5. Navigation and safety

The Services and any product described in them are aids only. They do not replace official charts and publications, proper watchkeeping, required safety equipment or the judgement of the person in command of a vessel. You remain responsible for the safe navigation and operation of your vessel and for correctly installing and maintaining its equipment.

6. Documentation and SDK

Documentation is provided for information. Use of the SDK and any other software is governed by the licence that comes with it, and nothing in these Terms grants you a licence to that software.

7. Our content

Unless stated otherwise, the content of the Services, including text, graphics, diagrams and software, belongs to Mernell or its licensors. You may view it and print it for your own non-commercial or internal business use. You may not otherwise copy, modify, distribute or sell it without our written permission.

Mernell, Marine Link, Arrow Link, Night Link, Fuel Link, Power Link and our logos are our trademarks or trade names. Other names belong to their respective owners, and their use does not imply any affiliation with or endorsement of us.

8. Information you send us

When you send us an enquiry you confirm that what you send is accurate and that you are entitled to send it. Do not send confidential information unless we have agreed in writing to receive it. We handle personal information as described in our Privacy Policy.

9. Prohibited conduct

You agree not to:

  • use the Services in violation of any law or the rights of others;
  • send unsolicited advertising or other spam through the Services;
  • interfere with or disrupt the Services, or overload the systems that provide them;
  • introduce viruses or other harmful code;
  • impersonate any person, or misrepresent your connection with any person or organization;
  • attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Services or their administration area;
  • scrape or harvest personal information from the Services.

10. Third-party sites

The Services may link to sites we do not operate. We are not responsible for their content or practices, and your use of them is at your own risk.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MERNELL OFFERS THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ALL CONTENT AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THEM, AS IS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. MERNELL DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE, OR THAT THE SERVICES ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

Any warranty for a product you buy is set out in the documents supplied with that product.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MERNELL WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF REVENUE, PROFITS OR DATA, ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES, EVEN IF MERNELL HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain damages, so some of these limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits any right or liability that cannot be limited by law, including your rights as a consumer.

13. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify Mernell and its employees, officers, directors, affiliates and agents against claims, losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable legal fees, that result from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the Services.

We respect the rights of others. If you believe content on the Services infringes your rights, write to contact@mernell.com and identify the work and the content concerned.

15. Termination

We may modify, suspend or stop all or part of the Services at any time. You may stop using the Services at any time. Your right to use the Services ends automatically if you breach these Terms. The disclaimer of warranties, limitation of liability, indemnification and governing law provisions survive termination.

16. General

Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the United Arab Emirates, excluding its choice of law rules. Disputes concerning these Terms or the Services will be brought in the courts of the United Arab Emirates, unless mandatory law gives you the right to bring them elsewhere.

No waiver. If either party does not enforce a provision of these Terms, that is not a waiver of the provision.

Severability. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts stay in effect.

No agency. These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, employment or agency relationship between you and Mernell.

Entire agreement. These Terms and any specific terms that apply to a product are the entire agreement between you and Mernell about their subject.
