Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you and Roavi Inc. ("Roavi," "we," "us," "our") and govern your access to and use of Roavi's website, apps, and related services (collectively, the "Platform").

By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge you have read our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Community Guidelines, and Safety Center. If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.

These Terms are an electronic contract. You consent to receive communications from Roavi electronically, including notices, disclosures, and updates. We may provide notices by email, in-app notification, or by posting them on the Platform, as permitted by law.

• You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Platform.
• You may not use the Platform if you have been suspended or removed by Roavi.
• You represent that your use of the Platform complies with applicable laws and regulations.

"Local Friend"

means an independent user who creates a profile offering platonic companionship and local guidance.

"Host"

means any user who posts an Activity listing (including Local Friends who post Activities).

"Traveler"

means any user who browses, contacts, or meets Local Friends/Hosts.

"Activity"

means an independently posted listing, plan, meet-up, or experience shared on Roavi.

"Content"

means all text, photos, videos, listings, messages, reviews, and other materials on the Platform.

• You are responsible for all activity on your account and for safeguarding your credentials.
• You must provide accurate information and keep your account up to date.
• You must not share your account, sell it, or transfer it without our written permission.
• We may suspend or terminate accounts to protect users or enforce these Terms.

Roavi provides in-app messaging to help users communicate. You agree not to use messaging to harass, threaten, stalk, spam, solicit illegal services, or share prohibited content.

Roavi may access, preserve, or review messages only when reasonably necessary for safety, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or to investigate reports and enforce these Terms and related policies, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Roavi may offer verification features (e.g., a "Verified Badge"). Verification helps reduce fraud risk but does not guarantee a user's behavior, suitability, or safety. You must not claim to be verified unless Roavi confirms it in your account.

We may revoke verification at any time if we believe it was obtained through misrepresentation or if required for user safety or policy enforcement.

You retain ownership of content you submit — including your profile, Activity listings, photos, and any posts, questions, tips, or reviews you share in community or public areas of the Platform. By posting content on Roavi, you grant Roavi a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, distribute, display, and create technical adaptations of your content solely to operate, improve, and promote the Platform (for example, displaying your profile or Activity listing in search results, or showing public community posts to other users).

Uploaded photos and media: When you upload images or other media, you confirm that you own them or have the rights and permissions necessary to use and share them, and that they do not depict identifiable people without their consent. Do not upload content you do not have the right to share.

You represent that you have all rights necessary to post your content and grant this license. Roavi may, but is not obligated to, review, moderate, or remove content that violates these Terms or our policies.

The Platform, including its design, software, trademarks, and branding, is owned by Roavi or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reverse engineer, resell, or exploit any part of the Platform except as permitted by these Terms or by written permission from Roavi.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Platform at any time if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms, created risk for users, or used the Platform unlawfully. You may stop using the Platform at any time.

Termination may result in loss of access to your account, content, or messages, subject to our legal obligations and data retention practices.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Roavi and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Platform; (b) your interactions with other users; (c) your content; or (d) your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

The Platform may contain links to third-party services (e.g., maps, social platforms, external websites). Roavi does not control those services and is not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Your use of third-party services is at your own risk.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where prohibited by applicable law.

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will update the "Last updated" date above. If changes are material, we may provide additional notice. Continued use of the Platform after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
