Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Grupeta, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

2. Description of Service

Grupeta is a social cycling app that lets riders in local areas share activities, compete on climb segments, find riding partners, and communicate. The service is available on iOS.

3. Service Provider

Grupeta is operated by Daniel Tisdall. Contact: contact@danwt.com.

4. User Accounts

You must create an account to use Grupeta. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You must be at least 16 years old. You agree to provide accurate information during registration.

5. User Content

You retain ownership of activities, photos, comments, and messages you post. By posting content, you grant Grupeta a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to store, display, and distribute that content as necessary to operate the service (e.g. showing your activity in the local feed).

You are solely responsible for the content you post. Content must not contain illegal material, harassment, hate speech, threats, spam, sexually explicit material, or personal information of others without consent.

6. Community Guidelines

You agree to:

• Treat other riders with respect
• Not impersonate other users
• Not manipulate leaderboards (e.g. uploading fabricated activity data)
• Use the blocking and reporting features to flag problematic content
• Not use automated systems to access the service

We reserve the right to remove content and suspend accounts that violate these guidelines. See our full Community Guidelines.

7. Leaderboards and Trophies

Segment leaderboards and seasonal trophies are computed from uploaded activity data. Rankings are provided for entertainment and community purposes. We reserve the right to remove efforts that appear fraudulent or result from data errors.

8. Partner Matching

Grupeta suggests riding partners based on location, fitness level, and schedule compatibility. These are algorithmic suggestions only. Grupeta is not responsible for interactions between users, whether online or in person. Exercise normal caution when meeting anyone from the internet.

9. Safety and Liability

Cycling is an inherently risky activity. Grupeta does not organise, supervise, or insure any rides. You participate in all cycling activities at your own risk. Grupeta is not liable for accidents, injuries, or damages arising from cycling activities, whether alone or with partners suggested by the app.

10. Intellectual Property

The Grupeta name, logo, and app design are the property of Daniel Williams Tisdall. Segment data, leaderboard computations, and partner matching algorithms are proprietary. You may not copy, modify, or reverse-engineer the service.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

Grupeta is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee uninterrupted service, data accuracy, or that the app will meet your specific requirements.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Grupeta and its operator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service.

13. Right of Withdrawal

Under EU and UK consumer law, you have a 14-day right of withdrawal from digital service contracts. Since Grupeta is a free service, this right applies from the date you create your account. You can withdraw by deleting your account within 14 days. If paid features are introduced in the future, you will be asked to expressly consent to waive the withdrawal period before accessing immediate digital content, in accordance with the Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU) and the UK Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

14. Account Deletion

You may delete your account at any time via the Settings screen in the app. Deletion permanently removes all your data, activities, messages, and trophies. This action cannot be undone.

15. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or community guidelines, with or without notice.

16. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Spain. Disputes shall be resolved in the courts of Barcelona, Spain, unless mandatory consumer protection law provides otherwise. If you are a consumer resident in the UK, you retain the benefit of any mandatory provisions of the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and other UK consumer protection legislation that cannot be excluded by contract.

17. EU Online Dispute Resolution

The European Commission provides an Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform for consumers: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. Our email for ODR purposes is contact@danwt.com.

18. Severability

If any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

19. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. For material changes, we will notify you via in-app notification and request your acceptance before the changes take effect. If you do not accept the updated terms, you may delete your account.
