Field Safety Terms
Important terms governing the educational use of our geological resources, intellectual property protections, and field safety disclaimers.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By visiting, reading, or referencing information on curiofunbalcny.surf, you agree to comply with these Field Safety Terms and all applicable environmental and conservation regulations. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of this site.
2. Educational and Research Nature
The materials on this website are provided strictly for general educational, academic, and informational purposes. While our team works to verify all geological, geochemical, and spatial data against peer-reviewed physical geography sources, the dynamics of active geological zones (including geothermal activity, volcanic gas emissions, and tectonic shifts) are inherently unpredictable and change over time.
3. Field Safety Warning & Limitation of Liability
Visiting extreme geological environments—such as hyper-arid salt flats, acidic hydrothermal basins, active rift valleys, and subterranean caverns—carries real hazards, including:
-
Chemical & Thermal Hazards: Toxic sulfur and chlorine gases, scalding geothermal brine, and sudden ground collapses in thin mineral crusts.
-
Environmental Extremes: Severe hyperthermia, dehydration, altitude sickness, and total lack of emergency services in remote regions.
Curio Funbalcny Surf, its authors, and its researchers accept no liability for personal injury, equipment damage, or legal infractions resulting from independent fieldwork or travel to sites discussed on this website. Anyone visiting these areas is solely responsible for obtaining proper permits, hiring certified local guides, carrying safety gear, and checking current geological alerts.
4. Intellectual Property
All analytical texts, geological diagrams, custom layouts, and editorial descriptions on this site are protected by copyright. Non-commercial educational citation is welcomed, provided appropriate credit is given to curiofunbalcny.surf with an active link back to the source page.
5. Applicable Jurisdiction
These terms are governed by the laws applicable to registered scientific entities in the state of Nevada, United States.
