4. User Content
You retain ownership of the reviews, photos, and other content you submit (“User Content”). By submitting User Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, display, and use it within the App and for promoting the App. You are solely responsible for your User Content and confirm that you have the rights to share it.
5. Local Recommendations & AI Assistant
The App surfaces places, trip suggestions, and AI-generated guidance (“Kak Lin”) for informational purposes only. We do not guarantee the accuracy, availability, pricing, or opening hours of any listed place. Always verify important details directly with the business before relying on them. Your use of any recommendation is at your own risk.
6. Business Listings & Promotions
Some places may be sponsored or promoted by businesses through our partner platform. Sponsored placements are identified within the App. The inclusion of a business does not constitute an endorsement by us, and any dealings between you and a business are solely between you and that business.
7. Intellectual Property
The App, including its design, logo, text, and software, is owned by Battut Sdn Bhd and protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from the App without our prior written permission, except for your own personal, non-commercial use.
8. Privacy
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect and use your information. By using the App, you consent to that processing.

10. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Battut Sdn Bhd shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the App. This includes any reliance on place information, recommendations, or content provided through the App.
11. Termination
You may stop using the App at any time and request deletion of your account and data — see our Delete Account page. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms or if we discontinue the App. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will continue to apply.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the effective date above and, where appropriate, by an in-app notice. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
