Terms

Terms of Service

Welcome to Get2Getha! By accessing or using our mobile application ("App") or website ("Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use our services.

1. Who We Are

Get2Getha is a social coordination platform that helps users create, join, and manage in-person events and gatherings. We provide tools for communication, discovery, and location sharing to facilitate meetups.

2. Eligibility

• You must be at least 16 years old to use the App. If you are under 18, you must have parental or guardian consent
• By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements

3. Account & User Responsibilities

• You must provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information when creating an account
• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials
• You may not use another person's account without authorization

Account Names, Usernames, and Business Profiles

• Display names are not unique and may be used by more than one account. A display name does not grant ownership of that name, brand, business identity, trademark, or any related rights
• Usernames and handles are unique within Get2Getha and are generally made available on a first-come, first-served basis. Creating or using a username does not give you ownership of that username, nor does it give you any legal rights to a business name, brand name, trademark, or identity
• Businesses, organizations, venues, and other entities may be allowed to create business profiles or apply for business verification
• A verified business may use the same or a similar display name as another account, but verified status may be shown to help users distinguish business profiles from regular user accounts
• If a desired username is already in use, the business or organization may be required to choose a different username
• We may reserve, restrict, rename, suspend, remove, or reclaim usernames, display names, business profiles, or account identifiers at our discretion, including when we believe they may impersonate another person or business, mislead users, infringe intellectual property rights, be used for username squatting or resale, conflict with Get2Getha's own platform operations, or violate these Terms
• If you believe an account is impersonating you, your business, or your organization, or if you believe a username or profile violates your rights, you may report the account to Get2Getha for review. We may request documentation or other information to evaluate the report, but we are not obligated to assign, transfer, or reserve any username except where required by law

Business Verification

• Business verification means that Get2Getha has taken steps to confirm that the account appears to represent the business, organization, venue, or entity associated with the profile
• Verification may include review of business information, public records, website or domain control, business email or phone confirmation, documentation, or other evidence that we consider appropriate
• Verification does not mean that Get2Getha endorses, sponsors, guarantees, recommends, certifies, or is responsible for the business, its events, its services, its safety, its quality, or the accuracy of information provided by the business
• We may approve, deny, suspend, remove, or revoke verification at any time if we believe the profile information is inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, outdated, unauthorized, abusive, or otherwise violates these Terms

• Use the App for unlawful, harmful, or misleading purposes

• Except as expressly permitted, you may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or create derivative works from any part of the App

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• Binding Arbitration: If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, you agree that it will be settled through binding arbitration, conducted by a recognized arbitration body under its applicable rules
