Terms of Service

1. Agreeing to these terms

PLEASE READ SECTION 15. IT REQUIRES MOST DISPUTES TO BE RESOLVED BY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, NOT IN COURT, AND WAIVES CLASS ACTIONS AND JURY TRIALS. YOU CAN OPT OUT WITHIN 30 DAYS.

EyeTag is operated by [operator legal name] ("EyeTag", "we", "us"). By creating an account or using EyeTag, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, Community Guidelines, Safety Tips, and Meetups & Tickets Policy, which are all part of this agreement. If you do not agree, do not use EyeTag.

2. Who can use EyeTag

To create an account you must:

• Be at least 18 years old. We ask for your birthday when you sign up and do not create an account for anyone under 18. Your birthday cannot be changed later except by contacting support. Some events are 21+; the host sets the age and the venue checks ID.
• Be able to form a binding contract and not be barred from using the service under U.S. law.
• Never have been convicted of, or pleaded guilty or no contest to, a felony, a sex crime, or any crime involving violence, stalking or harassment, and not be required to register as a sex offender anywhere.
• Not have been removed from EyeTag before, unless we gave you written permission to return.
• Use your real first name, your real age and photos of yourself, and keep only one account.

3. Your account

You are responsible for everything that happens on your account. Keep your login private and tell us right away if you think someone else has accessed it.

Every account has a social profile with a profile photo of you. A dating profile is optional and separate: you need one to use dating features (Singles, Likes, matches and approachable singles at events), and you can create, pause or delete it at any time without affecting your social profile.

Selfie verification (the check mark) only means your selfie matched your profile photos when you verified. It does not mean we checked your identity documents, background or intentions.

4. Your safety and other members

EYETAG DOES NOT CONDUCT CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS OR IDENTITY CHECKS ON ITS MEMBERS, AND DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE CONDUCT OF ANY MEMBER OR EVENT HOST.

You alone are responsible for your interactions with other members, online and in person, including at events. Read our Safety Tips before meeting anyone. EyeTag is not responsible for the conduct of members or hosts, on or off the app. We review reports and may take action as described in our Community Guidelines.

If you are ever in danger, call 911 first.

5. The green light

The green light works only at EyeTag events. You are at an event when you hold a ticket, it is during the event window, and your device shows you are near the venue (checked on your device, with your permission). Only members at the same event can see your green light. EyeTag receives only whether you are at the event, never your location.

Show your profile (To everyone or Liked profiles) decides who at your event may approach you. "Liked profiles" shows you only to people you liked. Your note to others approaching you is an invitation, not a promise. A "no" or a lack of response always ends the conversation, and you can turn off Show your profile at any time to stop being shown.

A green light or a mutual match means only that both people are open to saying hello. It is not consent to touching, to leaving together, to sharing contact details or to anything else, and either person can end the interaction at any time.

Using EyeTag to follow, track, wait for, or find out where someone is, lives or works is prohibited. It leads to a permanent ban and may be reported to the police.

6. Your content

You own the photos, notes, comments, prompts, your note to others approaching you and messages you share ("your content"). You are responsible for it and must have the right to share it.

So that EyeTag can work, you give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, display, adapt (for example, resize or crop) and distribute your content within EyeTag, and to use it to keep the service safe. This license ends when you delete the content or your account, except for copies we must keep for safety or legal reasons, or messages other members have already received.

We will not use your photos in advertising outside EyeTag, or sell your content, without your separate permission.

7. Rules of conduct

You must follow our Community Guidelines. In short: be real, be respectful, respect consent and the green light, and never harass, threaten, scam, exploit or endanger anyone. Content or behavior involving anyone under 18 in a sexual way leads to a permanent ban and a report to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.

You may not use EyeTag for commercial solicitation, sex work or escort services, to collect other members' information, or to use bots, scrapers or automated accounts.

8. Reporting, moderation and enforcement

You can report any profile, note, comment, message or event in the app, and block anyone at any time. We review reports and may remove content, limit features, suspend or permanently ban accounts, cancel events, and keep records needed for safety, with or without notice, when we believe it is needed to protect members or comply with the law.

We may use automated tools and human review to detect scams, nudity, harassment and other violations, including in messages that have been reported. We may not explain a decision if doing so could put someone at risk.

If you think we made a mistake, you can appeal by writing to [support email] within 30 days.

Feeds and event lists are personalized and ranked automatically (see How we recommend posts and events in our Privacy Policy). We do not promise that any post, profile or event will be shown to anyone or ranked in any position, and we may show less of, or stop recommending, content that breaks our rules or is under review.

9. Meetups and tickets

Anyone can host a meetup on EyeTag. Hosts are independent organizers, not EyeTag employees or agents, and they are responsible for their events. EyeTag provides the listing and ticketing tools only. Ticket purchases, refunds and host payouts follow our Meetups & Tickets Policy. EyeTag is not a party to any agreement between a host and a guest.

10. Payments

Payments are processed by Stripe and are subject to Stripe's terms. We do not store full card numbers. Ticket prices are shown all-in: the host's ticket price, plus the 5% EyeTag fee and the card processing fee, both paid by the buyer.

Super Likes are free for now: one a day, resetting at midnight. Whether the other person sees that a like was a Super Like is your choice when you send it.

If we offer paid subscriptions in the future, they will renew automatically until you cancel, and we will show the price, renewal period and how to cancel before you buy.

Disputing a charge with your bank instead of contacting us first may lead to your account being suspended while the dispute is open.

11. Risks of meeting people

Meeting people you met online, and going to events, carries real risks, including the risk of injury, illness, property loss, emotional harm and harmful conduct by others. You choose whether to meet anyone or attend any event, and you accept those risks. To the fullest extent the law allows, you release us from claims arising from your interactions with other members and hosts. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code section 1542, and residents of other places waive any similar law.

12. Disclaimer

EYETAG IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE". TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ABOUT MEMBERS, HOSTS, EVENTS, MATCHES, LOCATION ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE SERVICE.

13. Limit on our liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE CONDUCT OF ANY MEMBER OR HOST. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.

Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not fully apply to you.

14. Indemnity

You agree to defend and cover [operator legal name] and its owners and staff against claims, losses and costs (including reasonable legal fees) that come from your content, your conduct, the events you host, or your breaking these Terms or the law.

15. Resolving disputes

Talk to us first. Before starting any claim, email [legal email] with your name, the phone number or email on your account, a description of the problem and what you want. We will try to resolve it within 60 days, and neither side may start arbitration or a lawsuit before then.

Individual arbitration. If we cannot resolve it, you and we agree to resolve any dispute about EyeTag or these Terms by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, instead of in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. The arbitrator decides all issues, including whether a dispute must be arbitrated, except that a court decides whether the class action waiver and the mass filing rules below are valid. Hearings may be held by video or in [county] County, Texas. We will pay the filing, administration and arbitrator fees above what you would pay to file in court, unless the arbitrator finds your claim frivolous.

Exceptions. Either side may bring an individual claim in small claims court, or ask a court to stop infringement or misuse of intellectual property. Claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment may be brought in court if you choose, as federal law allows.

No class actions or jury trials. You and we waive the right to a jury trial and to bring or join any class, collective or representative action. Claims may only be brought individually.

Mass filings. If 25 or more similar claims are filed by the same or coordinated lawyers, they will be handled in batches under the AAA’s mass arbitration rules, and the time limits for filing those claims are paused while they wait.

Opt-out. You can opt out of arbitration by emailing [legal email] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, with your name, the phone number or email on your account, and a clear statement that you opt out. Opting out does not affect the rest of these Terms.

Changes to this section. If we change this section, the change will not apply to a dispute we already knew about before the change.

16. Governing law and courts

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any claim not subject to arbitration must be brought in the state or federal courts in [county] County, Texas.

17. Ending your account

You can delete your account at any time in the app (Profile > Settings). Deleting your account does not refund past purchases, except as stated in the Meetups & Tickets Policy or required by law.

We may suspend or end your account if you break these Terms or if we believe it is needed to protect members, hosts or the service.

18. App stores and other services

If you downloaded EyeTag from the Apple App Store or Google Play, these Terms are between you and [operator legal name], not Apple or Google. Apple and Google are not responsible for EyeTag or its support. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

EyeTag may link to or use services run by others (such as maps, payments and venues). We are not responsible for those services.

19. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will tell you in the app or by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use EyeTag after that means you accept the new Terms.

20. General

These Terms, together with the policies they refer to, are the whole agreement between you and EyeTag about the service. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. If we do not enforce a part right away, we have not given up the right to enforce it later.

You may not transfer your account or these Terms. We may transfer these Terms as part of a merger, sale or reorganization, including to a company formed to run EyeTag. Sections that by their nature should continue after your account ends (including sections 6, 11 to 16 and 18) will continue.
