Terms of use

The deal for using the app

DRAFT

Not in force yet. This draft is waiting for the owner's and a lawyer's review.

DRAFT – owner to review; this is not legal advice. Have a lawyer read it before launch. Fill in every [PLACEHOLDER]. Last updated: [DATE].

These terms are the agreement between you and [OWNER NAME OR COMPANY] (“we”) for using Where Are My Friends. By making an account you agree to them. Our privacy policy explains what we do with your data.

Your account

  • You must be at least [13/16 — OWNER TO DECIDE] to use the app.
  • Keep your sign-in email or phone number to yourself. You’re responsible for what happens on your account.
  • One account per person. Don’t pretend to be someone else.
  • You can delete your account at any time in Profile › Settings › Delete account.

What you share

You own what you post: your profile, photo, cities, pins, spots, stamps and comments. You give us permission to store it and show it to the people your settings allow, only to run the app. That permission ends when you delete it or your account.

Only share what you have the right to share. Don’t post anything that:

  • is illegal, hateful, harassing or threatening;
  • shares someone else’s private details, including where they live, without their consent;
  • is sexual, violent or meant to shock;
  • is spam, a scam or advertising;
  • infringes someone else’s copyright or trademark.

Using the app fairly

Don’t scrape the app, try to break its security, find people in bulk, or use it to track or stalk anyone. Don’t use automated tools to make accounts or send requests.

When we can act

We can remove content or suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, or to keep people safe. Where we reasonably can, we’ll tell you why.

The service

The app is free and provided “as is”. We work to keep it running and your data safe, but we can’t promise it will always be available or free of mistakes. City and place information comes from third parties (Geoapify, OpenStreetMap, Wikipedia) and may be wrong.

As far as the law allows, we’re not liable for indirect losses, or for what other users post or do. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the consumer laws where you live.

Changes

We may update these terms. If a change is significant, we’ll tell you in the app before it takes effect. If you keep using the app after that, you accept the new terms.

Law and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of [JURISDICTION]. Questions: [CONTACT EMAIL].
