By accessing or using Socialize (“the Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Service. This includes guests who RSVP to a hangout without creating an account — you agree to these Terms.
You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service. If you are under 18 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Service, with or without registering. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old. The Service is not directed to anyone under 18, and Socialize may terminate any account that it believes belongs to a person under 18.
Socialize is a personal social relationship manager that allows users (“Hosts”) to manage contacts, create hangout events, send invitations via email, and track RSVPs. Guests may RSVP to hangouts without creating an account.
To create a Host account, you must verify your email address via a magic code or link sent to your email. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and for all activities under your account. You must provide accurate and complete information.
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not you authorized it, and you must notify us promptly of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.
You agree not to:
The Service may send email messages for account authentication (magic codes and sign-in links), hangout invitations, and event reminders. You consent to receive messages from hosts whose hangouts you RSVP to.
Socialize enforces rate limits on authentication attempts, invitation sending, and content creation to protect against abuse and ensure fair use for all users. Attempting to circumvent these limits is a violation of these Terms. Socialize reserves the right to block accounts or IP addresses that exhibit abusive behavior, including but not limited to excessive login attempts, bulk message sending, or automated access patterns.
All content you submit to the Service (hangout descriptions, notes, comments, poll options, etc.) is subject to automated sanitization to remove potentially harmful code, scripts, and unsafe links. Socialize reserves the right to remove or modify content that violates these Terms or poses a security risk to other users.
The Socialize name, logo, and the Service’s design and underlying technology are proprietary. You retain ownership of the content you create (contact lists, hangout details, messages), and grant Socialize a limited license to use this content solely to operate the Service.
You represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have all necessary rights to the content you submit; (b) you have the consent, release, and/or permission of each identifiable individual person whose name, likeness, phone number, email, or other information appears in your User Content to include it; (c) any contact information you import was lawfully obtained and you have the right to submit it; and (d) your User Content does not infringe the rights of any third party or violate any law.
You are solely responsible for your User Content, and Socialize has no liability for it.
The Service integrates with third-party services, including Google (for sign-in, Contacts import, and Maps) and email and push delivery providers. Those third-party services are governed by their own terms of service and privacy policies. Socialize is not responsible for the availability, content, or acts or omissions of any third-party service, and your use of such services is at your own risk.
Socialize is only a tool to organise and track social gatherings. We do not organise, host, supervise, endorse, or attend any hangout or event. Hosts are solely responsible for their events, including guest safety, venue suitability, the conduct of attendees, obtaining any required permissions, and compliance with all applicable laws.
To the maximum extent permitted by law and subject to Section 17, Socialize is not liable for any loss, injury, harm, or damage arising from any in-person gathering or from the conduct of any host or guest.
Guests may view hangout pages and RSVP without creating an account, but by accessing a hangout page, submitting an RSVP, posting a comment, voting in a poll, or otherwise interacting with the Service, guests agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions in their entirety, including without limitation the provisions on User Content (§9), Copyright (§14), Indemnification (§15), Disclaimer of Warranties (§16), Limitation of Liability (§17), and User Disputes (§18).
Hosts are responsible for their guest lists, and guests interact with hosts and other guests at their own risk.
We may offer features designated as beta, preview, or experimental. Such features may be changed, broken, or withdrawn at any time without notice, and they are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” without warranty of any kind. Socialize has no liability for any beta or experimental features.
Socialize respects the intellectual property rights of others, and we ask our users to do the same. You may not upload, post, submit, transmit, store, or otherwise distribute any content that infringes the copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights of any person or entity. This includes, without limitation, reproducing, distributing, or making available any copyrighted material without the permission of the copyright owner or as otherwise permitted by law.
You are solely responsible for ensuring that any content you submit — including contact information, hangout details, notes, comments, images, and links — does not infringe or violate the rights of any third party.
If you believe that content on the Service infringes your intellectual property rights, please contact us through the Socialize app.
Socialize reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to remove or disable access to any content that it believes infringes or violates the rights of others. Socialize also reserves the right to suspend or permanently terminate the account of any user who uploads, posts, or distributes infringing or unauthorized copyrighted material, and to ban such users from accessing or using the Service. If your account is terminated for a violation of this section, you may not create a new account or access the Service by any other means.
To the extent permitted under applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Socialize, its affiliates, and its and their respective officers, employees, directors, service providers, licensors, and agents (collectively, the “Socialize Parties”) from any and all losses, damages, expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, rights, claims, actions of any kind, and injury (including death) arising out of or relating to your use of the Service (including but not limited to any events or parties planned using the Service), any User Content, your connection to the Service, your violation of these Terms and Conditions, or your violation of any rights of another. Socialize will provide notice to you of any such claim, suit, or proceeding. Socialize reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter which is subject to indemnification under this section, and you agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests assisting Socialize’s defense of such matter. You may not settle or compromise any claim against the Socialize Parties without Socialize’s written consent.
YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. THE SOCIALIZE PARTIES EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
THE SOCIALIZE PARTIES MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT (A) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS; (B) THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; (C) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE; OR (D) THE QUALITY OF ANY PRODUCTS, SERVICES, INFORMATION, OR OTHER MATERIAL OBTAINED BY YOU THROUGH THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE SOCIALIZE PARTIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, USE, OR DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF THE SOCIALIZE PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, RESULTING FROM: (A) THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE; (B) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION, OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH OR FROM THE SERVICE; (C) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (D) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE; (E) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES; OR (F) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SERVICE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE SOCIALIZE PARTIES’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR CAUSES OF ACTION EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID SOCIALIZE IN THE LAST SIX (6) MONTHS, OR, IF GREATER, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OR EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU OR BE ENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO YOU. IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR WITH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE USE OF THE SERVICE.
IF YOU ARE A USER FROM THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, THE FOREGOING SECTIONS TITLED “INDEMNIFICATION”, “DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES” AND “LIMITATION OF LIABILITY” ARE INTENDED TO BE ONLY AS BROAD AS IS PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. IF ANY PORTION OF THESE SECTIONS IS HELD TO BE INVALID UNDER THE LAWS OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, THE INVALIDITY OF SUCH PORTION WILL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THE APPLICABLE SECTIONS.
YOU AND SOCIALIZE AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SOCIALIZE AGREE OTHERWISE, NO COURT MAY CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ANY RELIEF AWARDED MAY BE AWARDED ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S).
Preservation of Non-Waivable Rights. Nothing in these Terms is intended to, and nothing shall be construed to, waive, limit, exclude, or restrict any right or remedy that you have under any statute, law, or regulation that cannot lawfully be waived, disclaimed, or limited by contract. If any provision of these Terms conflicts with any non-waivable right, the non-waivable right controls, and the provision is deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to comply. This section does not create any right or remedy beyond those provided by applicable law.
Nothing in this section limits liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, and the rights of District of Columbia consumers under the District of Columbia Consumer Protection Procedures Act (DCCPPA), D.C. Code § 28-3901 et seq., are not waived.
If the class-action waiver set forth above is held to be unenforceable, that provision shall be severed from these Terms and Conditions, and the remaining provisions — including the limitation of liability — shall remain in full force and effect.
You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user in connection with the Service, and Socialize will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Socialize reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Service.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice. You may discontinue use of the Service at any time.
We may modify these Terms and Conditions at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms and Conditions. We will notify registered users of material changes by email and by posting the revised date at the top of this page. Guests and other users are bound by the version of these Terms and Conditions posted at the time of their use of the Service.
Governing Law. These Terms and Conditions will be governed by the laws of the District of Columbia, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Venue. You and Socialize submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the Superior Court of the District of Columbia and the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms and Conditions without the prior written consent of Socialize, but Socialize may assign or transfer these Terms and Conditions, in whole or in part, without restriction.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Socialize regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements or understandings.
No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of that right or provision.
Section titles are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
