These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Solobase mobile application and website (together, the "Service"), operated by [Business Name — not yet incorporated] ("Solobase", "we", "us", "our"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and any disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
This is a starting template, not finished legal copy. Before publishing, have it reviewed by a qualified lawyer and confirm every clause matches how Solobase actually operates.
[Confirm your actual minimum age requirement.] You must meet the stated minimum age to use Solobase and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. By using the Service, you confirm that you meet this requirement.
When using Solobase, you agree not to:
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, at our discretion.
Solobase is designed to help you connect with other travellers, including through public groups (Basecamp), direct messages, and shared trips. We do not conduct criminal background checks on users, and we cannot guarantee the conduct, identity, or intentions of any user.
You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users, both online and in person. We strongly recommend that you:
Solobase is not liable for any interactions, disputes, injury, or loss arising from your use of the Service to connect with, or meet, other users.
You retain ownership of the content you post (including profile information, photos, and messages). By posting content, you grant Solobase a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use, display, and distribute that content as necessary to operate and improve the Service — for example, showing your profile to other users, or displaying your messages within a chat.
You're responsible for ensuring you have the rights to any content you upload, and that it doesn't infringe on anyone else's rights.
Solobase uses a personality assessment and compatibility engine to suggest matches based on your interests, personality, and travel style. Compatibility scores are a guide, not a guarantee of any particular outcome, connection, or relationship.
Public groups (including those surfaced through Basecamp) are visible and joinable by any user, sorted by category or proximity. Private groups are invite-only. You're responsible for your conduct within any group you join, and group content is subject to the same acceptable use rules as the rest of the Service.
[Update this section if/when Solobase introduces paid features or subscriptions.] Solobase is currently free to use. We reserve the right to introduce paid features in the future, with advance notice to users.
The Solobase name, logo, and app design are the property of [Business Name]. You may not copy, modify, or use our branding without permission.
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service if you violate these Terms, engage in behaviour that harms other users or the platform, or for any other reason at our reasonable discretion, with notice where practical.
The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, to the extent permitted by law. Solobase is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to interactions with other users. Nothing in these Terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We'll notify you of material changes through the app or by email where appropriate. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
These Terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Service are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
