Enforcing our Terms of Use

Historically it has been pretty easy to share Premium with loved ones, who may have also shared their password with their friends, who may have forgotten to log out of their neighbor's computer.

We're stoked to have more customers, but one user per account has always been in Surfline's terms of use. We built Surfline to tailor a personal experience, unarguably better when the account is set up with your local spots up top, custom forecast positions, surf alerts, record of Sessions and custom unit/theme preferences set to your liking.

We're enforcing our terms of use so we can continue to deliver a personalized experience and put an end to complaints caused by account sharing.

  • Random logouts
  • Password not working
  • Logging back in to missing favorites
  • Wrong unit settings
  • Issues generating Sessions

Setting yourself up with Premium will help us add more value to the membership, add new features and double down on maintenance for the growing cam network - regular cleanings, hardware upgrades, and improved connection infrastructure.

 

When this might impact people

Over the next few months, we ask you take steps to ensure your account is used by just one person. If your account is detected on multiple devices simultaneously, across different locations, it'll be flagged automatically.

We'll then lock it until the password has been reset via the email address associated with the account.

 

What to do if you are impacted 

If you are the account holder, please click this link to request a password reset. You can then continue to access and use your account.

If your Surfline account is on an old email address that you can no longer access, or you're experiencing issues with the password reset - support@surfline.com can help, but they'll need some proof of purchase to grant access. Please email us as this address or submit a support ticket submit a support ticket and we will be happy to help you out.

If you aren't the account holder, please create your own Surfline account if you do not already have one, or, login to an existing Surfline account under your email address.
