Operator: HydroComplete LLC. Effective November 14, 2026
These Terms are a binding agreement between you and HydroComplete LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company ("Feeder Log", "we"), the operator of the Feeder Log service. By linking your Ring account to Feeder Log, or by using your dashboard, you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not link your account or use the service. You must be at least 18 and able to form a binding contract.
Feeder Log looks at short Ring recordings from the cameras you connect when Ring reports motion that is not a person, vehicle or package, names the birds it sees, keeps a log, photos and a life list of them on your dashboard, and can email you when a new species arrives. Identification is automated and will sometimes be wrong or missing: a camera sees only what is in view, only when Ring sends a motion alert and has a recording, a small or distant bird may not set off an alert at all, and similar species, night (infrared) pictures and blurred birds are easily confused. Feeder Log is a hobby tool, not a scientific survey, and its records should not be relied on for research, reporting rare birds or any official purpose.
Our data practices are set out in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms. In summary: Ring alerts for people, vehicles and packages are ignored; for other motion, about 10 seconds of recording is downloaded, two close-ups and a small picture of the whole view are sent to Anthropic's Claude AI to name the bird, and the recording is deleted within seconds; one close-up per visit may be kept as a photo visible only to you for at most 30 days, discarded if a person is detected in it; people are never identified and plates are never read; visits and alerts are kept for 30 days and your life list while you stay connected; nothing is sold or used to train AI; and you can delete everything at any time from your dashboard or by removing Feeder Log in the Ring app. The Privacy Policy controls if it and this summary differ.
The service, including its software, design, name and documentation, is owned by HydroComplete LLC. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use it for your own household. You keep all rights in your Ring recordings and the photos made from them, and grant us only the limited permission to retrieve, process and store them to provide the service. "Ring" and "Amazon" are trademarks of their owners; Feeder Log is not affiliated with or endorsed by Ring LLC or Amazon.com, Inc., beyond taking part in the Ring developer program.
The service depends on Ring and Amazon (camera access and account linking, under your agreement with Ring), Fly.io (hosting), Anthropic (AI vision) and Resend (email). We are not responsible for their outages, changes or acts. Your use of Ring remains governed by Ring's own terms.
The service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that any bird will be detected or named correctly, or that any alert will be sent or sent on time. To the fullest extent the law allows, HydroComplete LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from use of or inability to use the service. Total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the service in the twelve months before the claim.
By you: delete your data at any time with Delete all my data on your dashboard, or remove Feeder Log in the Ring app; either ends access and erases your data. By us: we may suspend or end access for breach of these Terms, unlawful use or abuse (anyone can report misuse as described on our support page), or if Ring, Amazon or the law requires it, and where practical we will tell you by email. We may discontinue the service with reasonable notice. On any termination your data is deleted as on unlinking. Sections 4 to 7 survive termination.
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be posted here with a new effective date and, where feasible, announced on your dashboard or by email before they take effect.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
