Terms & Conditions
Last updated: September 2026 · Lenga Maps (a product of Lenga Maps, registered in Zambia)
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Lenga Maps platform at lengamaps.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree, do not use the platform.
2. Description of Service
Lenga Maps provides a self-serve digital platform for downloading processed geospatial datasets covering all 54 African countries. Access is provided via plans (Individual, and Team packages for organisations) paid in USD in advance for a fixed access period of three (3) months. Plans do not renew automatically. All delivery is digital — no physical goods are shipped.
3. Account Registration
You must create an account to access paid content. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity under your account. You must provide accurate and current information during registration.
4. Plans and Payment
Plans are a one-time payment in USD, made by bank transfer. There is no subscription and no recurring charge. Access is activated once we verify your payment and does not expire. Team plans are sold as packages (up to 4 seats, or up to 12 seats) and confirmed by quote. Creating an account and browsing the catalogue is free; downloading datasets requires an active paid plan.
5. Acceptable Use
You may use downloaded datasets for personal, academic, commercial, or organisational purposes within the scope of your plan. You may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, or make datasets publicly available to third parties. You may not use the platform for any unlawful purpose.
6. Intellectual Property
The Lenga Maps platform, including its processing pipelines, curation logic, UI, and brand, is the intellectual property of Lenga Maps. Underlying datasets are sourced from open-data providers (IGRAC, CHIRPS, WorldClim, HydroSHEDS, ISRIC, ESA, and others) under their respective licences. Attribution requirements of source licences are the responsibility of the customer when publishing derived work.
7. Data Accuracy
Lenga Maps curates and validates datasets to professional standards, but does not warrant that all data is error-free or suitable for every use case. Users are responsible for verifying data fitness for their specific applications, particularly for regulatory, safety-critical, or legal purposes.
8. Limitation of Liability
Lenga Maps shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the platform or downloaded data. Our total liability to any subscriber shall not exceed the amount paid in the 30 days preceding the claim.
9. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or abuse the platform. Because plans are paid once, there is no recurring billing to cancel. You may ask us to close your account at any time.
10. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. We will notify active customers of material changes via email.
11. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Zambia. Any disputes shall be subject to the jurisdiction of Zambian courts.
12. Contact
