LocalVibe Terms of Service

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or use the Service.

By using the Service you represent that you are 18 or older and legally able to enter into this agreement. We do not knowingly permit anyone under 18 to use the Service, and we will close accounts we find to belong to minors.

LocalVibe surfaces venues, events, and offers intended for adults, including establishments that serve alcohol. Nothing on the Service is an offer or encouragement to purchase alcohol, and any age or identification requirement at a venue is set and enforced by that venue, not by us.

You are responsible for your account credentials and for activity that happens under your account. Give us accurate information and keep it current. Tell us promptly at support@localvibe.com if you believe your account has been compromised.

One person, one account. Do not share, sell, or transfer your account.

LocalVibe is a discovery platform. We show you information about local businesses, venues, artists, events, deals, and offers.

The businesses, artists, and venues on LocalVibe are independent third parties. They are not our employees, agents, or partners in a legal sense, and we do not control them.

This matters most in one specific situation, so it is stated plainly:

When you claim or purchase an offer through LocalVibe, your agreement to receive that product or service is with the business, not with us. The business sets the offer, its terms, its availability, and its expiration. The business is responsible for honoring it.

If a business fails to honor an offer you claimed, tell us at support@localvibe.com. We will look into it, and we may remove the business or the offer from the Service. Where you paid us for an offer that was not honored, see Section 6 on refunds.

Accuracy of information

We work to keep listings accurate, and we mark the provenance of information where we can. But hours change, events get cancelled, kitchens run out, and bands cancel. We do not guarantee that any listing, event, price, or offer is accurate, current, or available. Confirm with the business before you rely on it.

The Service uses your device's location to show you what is nearby and to determine whether to deliver a notification. You control location permission through your device settings and may withdraw it at any time.

If you enable notifications, you may receive messages about businesses you follow and, where you have opted in, about nearby businesses. You can turn notifications off at any time in your device settings or in the app.

How we handle location data is described in our Privacy Policy.

Free claims. Some offers are free to claim. Claiming places the offer in your wallet. You redeem it in person at the business.

Offers are personal. They are for your use, cannot be resold or transferred, and have no cash value unless the offer says otherwise.

Availability is limited. Offers may have quantity limits, time limits, or conditions set by the business. Once an offer is exhausted or expired, it is no longer available even if it still appears on your device.

Redemption is final. Once you mark an offer redeemed, it cannot be un-redeemed or reused.

No fraud. Do not create multiple accounts to claim offers more than once, use automated means to claim offers, or misrepresent a redemption. We may close accounts and void claims for this.

Payment processing. Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card number. Your use of payment features is also subject to Stripe's terms.

Paid offers. Some offers require payment. When you purchase one, you are paying for the right to receive the product or service from the business.

Tips to artists. You may send tips to artists through the Service. Tips are voluntary, are transferred to the artist, and are not refundable.

Fees. LocalVibe retains a percentage of transactions processed through the Service. The business is informed of this rate under its own agreement with us.

Refunds. Because the product or service is provided by the business, refund requests go to the business first. If a business fails to honor a paid offer and will not resolve it, contact support@localvibe.com and we will work with you and the business toward a resolution. Where we processed the payment, we may issue a refund at our discretion.

This section applies if you create or manage a business, artist, food truck, or venue profile.

Your representations. You represent that you are authorized to act for the business, that the information you publish is accurate, and that you will honor every offer you publish according to its stated terms.

Content you upload. You must own or have the right to use every photo, logo, description, and other material you upload. Do not upload content you do not have rights to.

License you grant us. You grant LocalVibe a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, adapt for formatting and sizing, publish, and display the content you submit, for the purpose of operating and promoting the Service and delivering the features you use.

Publishing to your own channels. If you direct us to publish content to your own social accounts, business listings, or other external platforms, you authorize us to do so on your behalf, and you remain responsible for that content. Publication to those platforms is subject to their rules and availability, and we do not guarantee that any external platform will accept, display, or retain a post.

Honoring offers. You must honor every offer a customer validly claims or purchases. Repeated failure to do so is grounds for removal from the Service.

Fees. Transaction fees are set out in your separate agreement with us.

Reviews. Where the Service invites customers to leave reviews, you may not filter, gate, or selectively solicit reviews based on expected sentiment, and you may not offer compensation in exchange for a positive review. This is both our rule and a requirement of the review platforms involved.

Do not:

• Use the Service if you are under 18
• Post false, misleading, fraudulent, or deceptive information
• Post content that is unlawful, harassing, hateful, threatening, obscene, or that infringes anyone's rights
• Impersonate a business, person, or entity
• Scrape, crawl, harvest, or systematically extract data from the Service
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to access the Service's source code
• Interfere with, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service
• Use the Service for any unlawful purpose

We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts for violations.

The Service, including its software, design, and the LocalVibe name and logo, is owned by NorthStar Apps LLC and protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to use our trademarks.

The compiled listing data, aggregate information, and analytics generated by the Service are ours. You may use the Service as intended; you may not extract, resell, or redistribute its data.

The Service integrates with third parties including payment processors, mapping and location providers, push notification services, and social and business listing platforms. Their terms apply to their portion of the experience, and we are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, or their content.

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. See https://localvibe.com/data-deletion.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the Service. Where practical and lawful, we will give notice.

Unredeemed claims and unused offers are forfeited on termination and have no cash value.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, that listings or offers will be accurate or available, or that any business will honor any offer.

Nothing in this section limits any right you have that cannot be waived under applicable law.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NORTHSTAR APPS LLC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, in which case they apply to the fullest extent permitted.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless NorthStar Apps LLC and its members, officers, and agents from claims, damages, and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, your content, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.

These Terms are governed by the laws of Wyoming, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.

We may update these Terms. When changes are material we will update the "Last updated" date and notify you in the app or by email before they take effect. Continued use after that means you accept the updated Terms.

Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.

Severability. If a provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.

Assignment. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
