These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Kylark Ventures LLC (“Kylark Ventures,” “we,” “us”) governing your access to and use of the Wyoming Oil and Gas Stats website, application, maps, data, and related services (together, the “Service”). By creating an account, subscribing, signing in, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
If you use the Service on behalf of a company or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes that organization.
The Service provides interactive maps and summaries of Wyoming oil and gas wells, production, permits, operators, and related information. The underlying information is compiled from publicly available sources, including the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (WOGCC), the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), and is updated periodically, not in real time. These agencies are not affiliated with the Service and do not endorse it; their official records are the authoritative sources and control in the event of any discrepancy. Production reporting typically lags by roughly two months or more, wells may be re-permitted, re-classified, plugged, or transferred between updates, and well locations are derived from reported coordinates and grid fitting and are not survey-accurate. The Service may link to third-party websites, which are governed by their own terms; we accept no responsibility for their content or availability.
Access to the Service requires an account and an active paid subscription. You agree to provide accurate account information and to keep your login credentials confidential. Your subscription is for your own use; sharing login credentials or providing access to persons who are not subscribers is prohibited. You are responsible for all activity under your account.
Subscription fees, billing periods, and any free-trial terms are as presented at sign-up. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period until cancelled. You may cancel at any time through your account; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and except where required by law or expressly provided in Section 12, fees already paid are non-refundable. Payments and account management are processed by our third-party providers, and your use of those services is also subject to their terms. We may change subscription pricing with notice, effective at your next renewal. We may decline to offer, or to renew, the Service to any person, as described in Section 12.
Subject to these Terms and payment of applicable fees, Kylark Ventures grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your own personal or internal business reference, including printing or exporting individual map views and reports for that purpose. Printed or exported material must retain the Kylark Ventures copyright notice and remains subject to these Terms. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
You agree not to: (a) resell, sublicense, rent, lease, redistribute, publish, or make the Service or any substantial portion of its content available to third parties; (b) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code, data files, or compilations underlying the Service; (c) remove or alter any copyright, attribution, watermark, or proprietary notice; (d) interfere with or disrupt the Service or circumvent any access control, usage cap, or subscription requirement; (e) misrepresent content from the Service as an official government record; or (f) use the Service for any unlawful purpose. Sections 5 and 6 set out further restrictions that apply to competing use and to automated access.
The Service is licensed to you as an end user, for reference. You agree that you will not, directly or indirectly, and will not permit or assist any other person to, use the Service — or any data, map, visualization, compilation, report, export, print, screen display, output, or documentation obtained from or through it (together, “Service Content”) — to design, develop, build, train, benchmark, market, sell, or operate any product, service, dataset, application, or website that competes with, substitutes for, or performs substantially the same function as the Service.
Without limiting the foregoing, you will not use the Service or Service Content to: (a) create, populate, seed, verify, correct, or enrich any competing database, map, or oil and gas well, permit, production, operator, or mineral-ownership data product; (b) train, fine-tune, ground, retrieve into, evaluate, or otherwise develop any machine-learning model, large language model, or other artificial-intelligence system; (c) reconstruct, reverse engineer, or replicate our data compilations, derived datasets, packing or storage formats, or the selection, arrangement, and presentation of data within the Service; (d) benchmark, audit, or study the Service for the purpose of developing or improving a competing offering, or supply the Service or information about it to any person for that purpose; or (e) act as a conduit through which any competitor obtains access to the Service or Service Content.
You represent, each time you access the Service, that you are not accessing it on behalf of, or for the benefit of, any person developing or operating a competing offering. This Section survives termination of your subscription and continues to apply to any Service Content in your possession.
This Section restricts what you may do with the Service and with what you obtain from it. It does not restrict your right to obtain raw public data directly from the WOGCC, BLM, USGS, county clerks, or any other government source, or to use data you obtain independently from those sources by your own effort.
You may access the Service only through the interface we provide, by ordinary human interaction, and only for your own use. You will not, and will not permit any other person, program, agent, or tool to:
(a) use any robot, spider, crawler, scraper, headless browser, script, browser extension, macro, recorder, bot, agent, or other automated or systematic process to access, read, copy, index, monitor, harvest, mirror, or download any portion of the Service or Service Content; (b) download, extract, copy, or retain the Service's data files, map tiles, compilations, or endpoint responses, in whole or in substantial part, or reconstruct any such file or dataset from displayed or printed output; (c) access the Service through any interface other than the one we provide, including any undocumented, internal, or private endpoint, or use credentials issued to you to authenticate any program other than the Service itself; (d) circumvent, disable, degrade, or interfere with any rate limit, access control, authentication, usage cap, watermark, or other technical measure we use to protect the Service, or take any step designed to avoid detection or attribution; (e) share, sell, publish, or otherwise make available your credentials, session token, or cookie, or permit account access by anyone other than you; (f) place an unreasonable or disproportionate load on our infrastructure, or make requests at a volume or rate inconsistent with ordinary human use; or (g) systematically collect, aggregate, store, or re-host Service Content, including printed or exported material, in any database, index, archive, or repository from which it can be retrieved, searched, or redistributed.
Printing or exporting individual views and reports for your own reference, as permitted in Section 4, does not violate this Section. Bulk, repeated, or automated printing or exporting for the purpose of assembling a copy of our data does.
We may monitor, log, rate-limit, throttle, watermark, challenge, block, or restrict access to the Service — by account, IP address, device, or usage pattern — to detect and prevent conduct prohibited by this Section, and we may embed identifying markers in Service Content to trace unauthorized copying. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to test, probe, or scan the Service's security or availability.
Enforcement. You acknowledge that a breach of Section 5 or this Section 6 would cause irreparable harm to Kylark Ventures for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that Kylark Ventures is entitled to seek injunctive relief and specific performance, without the necessity of posting a bond or proving actual damages, in addition to any other remedy available at law or in equity. You agree to reimburse our reasonable costs and attorneys' fees incurred in enforcing Sections 4, 5, or 6 against you.
The Service — including its software, design, maps, visualizations, and the selection, arrangement, and presentation of data — is owned by Kylark Ventures LLC and is protected by copyright and other intellectual-property laws. © Kylark Ventures LLC. All rights reserved. Raw factual data originating from government sources remains public information; these Terms do not restrict your right to obtain such data directly from those sources. Trademarks and source names (WOGCC, BLM, USGS, and others) belong to their respective owners, and no affiliation or endorsement is implied.
The Service and all content are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE.” The information presented is based on data believed to be accurate at the time of compilation, but Kylark Ventures does not verify it and makes no representation, warranty, or guarantee of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of accuracy, completeness, timeliness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, or non-infringement. Data may contain errors, omissions, or delays, and may differ from official records.
The Service is a general reference tool only. It is not a survey, title opinion, legal description, or professional advice of any kind (including legal, financial, investment, engineering, or geological advice). Map locations, boundaries, legal descriptions, and GPS-derived positions are approximate. You should independently verify any information with the official records of the WOGCC, BLM, county clerk, or other authoritative sources before acting on it. AI-assisted document readings offered by the Service (including readings of deeds, leases, and remittance statements) are automated proposals presented for your review and correction; they are not a title opinion, an ownership determination, or legal advice, and Kylark Ventures makes no warranty as to their accuracy or completeness. You are responsible for verifying every proposed entry against the recorded instrument before relying on it.
Your use of the Service and any reliance on its content is entirely at your own risk. You are solely responsible for any decision made or action taken based on the Service, including business, financial, investment, leasing, drilling, or operational decisions, and for any consequences of visiting or attempting to locate any well site or property. Nothing in the Service grants any right of access to real property.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Kylark Ventures LLC and its members, managers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of Kylark Ventures LLC and its members, managers, employees, and agents for all claims arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms — whether in contract, warranty, tort, strict liability, or any other theory, and however many claims are brought — will not exceed the total subscription fees you actually paid to Kylark Ventures for the Service during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. If you paid nothing during that period, our total aggregate liability is zero. This cap is a material part of the bargain between us and reflects the price of the Service and the disclaimers in Sections 8 and 9; it applies even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so portions of this Section may not apply to you.
This Section limits what Kylark Ventures may owe you. It does not limit your obligations under Sections 5, 6, or 11, and it does not limit our right to recover damages, costs, and attorneys' fees arising from your breach of these Terms.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kylark Ventures LLC and its members, managers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service or any feature at any time, and we do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available at any particular time.
We may suspend or terminate your account and your access to the Service at any time, for any reason or for no reason, in our sole discretion, with or without notice or explanation, and we may decline to offer or renew the Service to any person. Reasons may include, without limitation, violation of these Terms, suspected scraping or automated access, suspected competing use, credential sharing, fraud, chargeback, abuse of our staff or systems, nonpayment, or our decision to discontinue the Service or to stop serving a market or category of user.
Refunds on termination by us. If we terminate your account for convenience — that is, for a reason other than your breach of these Terms or suspected fraud, abuse, unlawful use, chargeback, or nonpayment — we will refund the unused, prepaid portion of your then-current subscription period, prorated from the date of termination. That prorated refund is your sole and exclusive remedy for such a termination. If we suspend or terminate your account for cause, no refund is due and any fees you still owe remain payable.
You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time, as described in Section 3. On termination for any reason, your license under Section 4 ends immediately and you must stop using the Service and any Service Content, except that material you lawfully printed or exported for your own reference may be retained for that purpose and remains subject to Sections 5 and 6. We are not liable to you or to any third party for any suspension or termination made in accordance with this Section. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 5–11 and 14–15) survive.
Account registration, authentication, and payment are handled by our third-party service providers, which collect and process your information under their own privacy policies. We use account information to operate the Service, including saving your preferences (such as wells of interest) to your account, and we do not sell your personal information. We also log access to the Service, including request patterns, for the security and enforcement purposes described in Section 6. Our Privacy Policy describes in more detail what we collect and how we use, share, and retain it; it is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
AI document reading. If you choose to upload a document for AI-assisted reading (such as a deed, lease, or remittance statement), the pages you upload are transmitted to Anthropic, PBC, which acts as our subprocessor and processes the document through its Claude API in order to return a reading to you. Anthropic processes and retains submitted content in accordance with its commercial terms in force at the time of processing, which do not permit Anthropic to use your submitted content to train its models. We do not retain the documents you upload or the readings returned on our own servers; we record only usage metadata (such as a count of pages read) to apply plan limits and for the logging described above. Information from a reading that you choose to save to your account is stored like any other account data.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Wyoming, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts. To the extent permitted by law, any claim must be brought within one (1) year after it accrues, and each party waives any right to a jury trial and to participate in a class action. Nothing in this Section prevents Kylark Ventures from seeking injunctive relief under Section 6 in any court of competent jurisdiction.
These Terms, together with the subscription terms presented at sign-up, are the entire agreement between you and Kylark Ventures regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if it cannot be, and the remainder stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a sale or reorganization of our business.
We may update these Terms from time to time. The current version, with its effective date, will always be posted at this page, and material changes may also be announced in the application. Your continued use of the Service after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
Questions about these Terms may be directed to Kylark Ventures LLC at support@oilstats.us.
