User Agreement

Hey tribe! Welcome to Depalo’s User Agreement (“Agreement”). We’ve implemented rules that we expect our users to follow so we can protect all of our hard work. This is a contract between you and Depalo LLC and we want you to know yours and our rights before you use the Depalo mobile application (“App”). Please take a few moments to read this Agreement before enjoying the App, because once you access, view or use the App, you are going to be legally bound by this Agreement!

1. Depalo Rules

Before you can use our awesome App, you will need to register for an account (“Account”).

You can create an Account via manual registration, or by using your Facebook login details. If you create an Account using your Facebook login details, you authorize us to access, display and use certain information from your Facebook account (e.g. profile picture, FacebookID, username). For more information about what information we use and how we use it, please check out our Privacy Policy.

You’ll have great fun on Depalo, but if you feel the need to leave, you can delete your Account at any time by going to the ‘Settings’ page when you are logged in and clicking on the ‘Delete account’ link. Your Account will be deleted immediately but it may take a little while for Your Content to be completely removed from the App. We will save your profile information in case you realise you miss us and you decide to restore your Account (which you can do within 30 days of de-activating your Account). Depalo LLC reserves the right at our sole discretion to terminate or suspend any Account, or make use of any operational, technological, legal or other means available to enforce the greement (including without limitation blocking specific IP addresses), at any time without liability and without the need to give you prior notice.

You may not access, tamper with, or use non-public areas of the App or our systems.

2. Types of Content

There are three types of content that you will be able to access on the App:

1. content that you upload and provide (“Your Content”);
2. content that members provide (“Member Content”); and
3. content that Depalo provide (“Our Content”).

We want our users to comment on locations, but we have to impose restrictions on certain content which:

  • contains language which could be deemed offensive or is likely to harass, upset, embarrass, alarm or
    annoy any other person;

  • is obscene, violent or otherwise may offend human dignity;

  • is abusive, insulting or threatening, discriminatory or which promotes or encourages racism, sexism,
    hatred or bigotry;

  • encourages any illegal activity including, without limitation, terrorism, inciting racial hatred or the
    submission of which in itself constitutes committing a criminal offence;

  • is defamatory or libellous;

  • relates to commercial activities (including, without limitation, sales, competitions and advertising,
    links to other websites or premium line telephone numbers);

  • involves the transmission of “junk” mail or “spam”;

  • contains any spy ware, adware, viruses, corrupt files, worm programmes or other malicious code
    designed to interrupt, damage or limit the functionality of or disrupt any software, hardware,
    telecommunications, networks, servers or other equipment, Trojan horse or any other material
    designed to damage, interfere with, wrongly intercept or expropriate any data or personal information
    whether from Depalo or otherwise;

  • itself, or the posting of which, infringes any third party’s rights (including, without limitation,
    intellectual property rights and privacy rights);

  • shows another person which was created or distributed without that person’s consent.

Depalo operates a zero-tolerance policy for this kind of content.

Your Content

If you do choose to reveal any personal information about yourself to other users, it is at your own risk. We encourage you to use the same caution in disclosing details about yourself to third parties online as you would under any other circumstances.

As such, you agree that Your Content may be viewed by other users and any person visiting, participating in or who is sent a link to the App (e.g. individuals who receive a link to a user’s profile or shared content from other Depalo Users). By uploading Your Content on Depalo, you represent and warrant to us that you have all necessary rights and licences to do so, and automatically grant us a non-exclusive, royalty free, perpetual, worldwide licence to use Your Content in any way (including, without limitation, editing, copying, modifying, adapting, translating, reformatting, creative derivative works from, incorporating into other works, advertising, distributing and otherwise making available to the general publish such Content, whether in whole or in part and in any format or medium currently known or developed in the future).

We may assign and/or sub-licence the above licence to our affiliates and successors without any further approval by you.

We have the right to remove, edit, limit or block access to any of Your Content at any time, and we have no obligation to display or review Your Content.

Member Content

Other members of Depalo will also share content via the App. Member Content belongs to the user who posted the content and is stored on our servers and displayed via the App at the direction of the user providing the Member Content.

You do not have any rights in relation to other users’ Member Content, nor will you be able to visit another user’s profile. You may not use other users’ information for commercial purposes, to spam, to harass, or to make unlawful threats. We reserve the right to terminate your Account if you misuse other users’ information.
