Terms & Conditions

1. Introduction

These terms and conditions apply to the Sociway app (hereby referred to as "Application") for mobile devices that was created by Sociway (hereby referred to as "Service Provider") as a Free service.

Upon downloading or utilizing the Application, you are automatically agreeing to the following terms. It is strongly advised that you thoroughly read and understand these terms prior to using the Application. Unauthorized copying, modification of the Application, any part of the Application, or our trademarks is strictly prohibited. Any attempts to extract the source code of the Application, translate the Application into other languages, or create derivative versions are not permitted. All trademarks, copyrights, database rights, and other intellectual property rights related to the Application remain the property of the Service Provider.

The Service Provider is dedicated to ensuring that the Application is as beneficial and efficient as possible. As such, they reserve the right to modify the Application or charge for their services at any time and for any reason. The Service Provider assures you that any charges for the Application or its services will be clearly communicated to you.

The Application stores and processes personal data that you have provided to the Service Provider in order to provide the Service. It is your responsibility to maintain the security of your phone and access to the Application. The Service Provider strongly advise against jailbreaking or rooting your phone, which involves removing software restrictions and limitations imposed by the official operating system of your device. Such actions could expose your phone to malware, viruses, malicious programs, compromise your phone's security features, and may result in the Application not functioning correctly or at all.

The Application includes an event system that allows users to create and join events. Participation in these events is entirely at the user's own discretion and responsibility. The Service Provider is not liable for any outcome or situation arising from the user's attendance or non-attendance to such events.

In addition, a messaging system is provided within events to allow communication between participants. All messages and content shared in these chats are the sole responsibility of the users who post them. The Service Provider does not monitor or moderate such messages and disclaims any responsibility for user-generated content within the Application.

By registering to the Application, users automatically consent to being visible on the map as a traveler to other users. This feature allows other users to see your location on the map. Users have the option to disable this visibility feature through their preferences settings at any time. The Service Provider ensures that users have full control over their visibility settings and can modify them according to their privacy preferences.

The Application allows users to submit reviews for cafes. These reviews may be shared with third-party applications through our API services. By submitting a review, users acknowledge and agree that their reviews may be distributed to and displayed on other platforms through our API. Users are solely responsible for the content of their reviews, including but not limited to accuracy, appropriateness, and legality of the content they submit. The Service Provider reserves the right to remove any review that violates our terms or applicable laws but assumes no responsibility for monitoring or moderating review content.

Please be aware that the Service Provider does not assume responsibility for certain aspects. Some functions of the Application require an active internet connection, which can be Wi-Fi or provided by your mobile network provider. The Service Provider cannot be held responsible if the Application does not function at full capacity due to lack of access to Wi-Fi or if you have exhausted your data allowance.

If you are using the application outside of a Wi-Fi area, please be aware that your mobile network provider's agreement terms still apply. Consequently, you may incur charges from your mobile provider for data usage during the connection to the application, or other third-party charges. By using the application, you accept responsibility for any such charges, including roaming data charges if you use the application outside of your home territory (i.e., region or country) without disabling data roaming. If you are not the bill payer for the device on which you are using the application, they assume that you have obtained permission from the bill payer.

Similarly, the Service Provider cannot always assume responsibility for your usage of the application. For instance, it is your responsibility to ensure that your device remains charged. If your device runs out of battery and you are unable to access the Service, the Service Provider cannot be held responsible.

In terms of the Service Provider's responsibility for your use of the application, it is important to note that while they strive to ensure that it is updated and accurate at all times, they do rely on third parties to provide information to them so that they can make it available to you. The Service Provider accepts no liability for any loss, direct or indirect, that you experience as a result of relying entirely on this functionality of the application.

The Service Provider may wish to update the application at some point. The application is currently available as per the requirements for the operating system (and for any additional systems they decide to extend the availability of the application to) may change, and you will need to download the updates if you want to continue using the application. The Service Provider does not guarantee that it will always update the application so that it is relevant to you and/or compatible with the particular operating system version installed on your device. However, you agree to always accept updates to the application when offered to you. The Service Provider may also wish to cease providing the application and may terminate its use at any time without providing termination notice to you. Unless they inform you otherwise, upon any termination, (a) the rights and licenses granted to you in these terms will end; (b) you must cease using the application, and (if necessary) delete it from your device.

The Application provides users with an AI-powered assistant that suggests travel plans and helps organize itineraries based on the data the user provides. This assistant uses travel preferences, location, and past activity to generate personalized suggestions. All AI-generated content is provided “as is” and users are advised to verify and use it at their own discretion.

Users are expected to interact respectfully with others. Any form of harassment, hate speech, spam, or abusive behavior is strictly prohibited and may result in account suspension or termination. The Service Provider reserves the right to review and take action against any reports of inappropriate behavior.

By posting content within the Application, users grant the Service Provider a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, display, reproduce, and distribute such content in connection with the Application and related promotional efforts. Users may request the removal of their content by contacting the Service Provider.

The Application offers premium membership options on a subscription basis. Users may choose from weekly, monthly, or yearly plans, each providing access to additional features not available in the free version.

By subscribing to a premium plan, you agree to the following terms:

Payments are processed via the App Store (Apple). The subscription will be charged to your App Store account upon confirmation of purchase.

Unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, your subscription will automatically renew. You will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period at the same price and duration you initially selected.

You may manage or cancel your subscription through your App Store account settings. Refunds are handled by the App Store and are subject to Apple’s refund policy

The Service Provider does not directly handle payments or refunds. All billing and cancellation requests must be managed through your App Store account.

The Service Provider reserves the right to modify the content or pricing of subscription plans at any time.

The Service Provider may periodically update their Terms and Conditions. Therefore, you are advised to review this page regularly for any changes. The Service Provider will notify you of any changes by posting the new Terms and Conditions on this page.

These terms and conditions are effective as of 2025-06-19

If you have any questions or suggestions about the Terms and Conditions, please do not hesitate to contact the Service Provider at hello@sociway.com.
