Terms of Use

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a legally binding agreement between you and Farid Mammadov, the individual developer who operates LocaVibe (“LocaVibe”, “we”, “us” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of the LocaVibe mobile app, our website at https://locavibe.dilami.pro, the partner cabinet and all related features and communications (together, the “Service”).

By creating an account, signing in or otherwise using the Service, you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms and to our Community Guidelines, which form part of these Terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your personal data. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Service.

If you use the Service on behalf of a business — for example, as a venue or event organiser using the partner cabinet — you confirm that you’re authorised to accept these Terms on its behalf, and the Partner terms below also apply. In that case, “you” includes the business.

Some features may be subject to additional terms that we or third parties (such as Apple) show you when you use them. If additional terms conflict with these Terms, the additional terms apply to that feature.

We may update these Terms from time to time — for example, when we add features, when the law changes or to make things clearer. The date at the top of this page shows when they were last updated.

If a change is material, we’ll tell you in advance through the app, by email or on this website, normally at least 14 days before it takes effect. Changes required by law, or needed urgently to protect the safety or security of users or the Service, may take effect sooner. By continuing to use the Service after a change takes effect, you accept the updated Terms. If you don’t agree, you should stop using the Service and delete your account.

We may add, change, suspend or discontinue features, or change limits (such as how many activities you can create), at any time. Where a change significantly reduces what you get with a paid subscription, we’ll tell you in advance where reasonably possible, and you can cancel your subscription as described in LocaVibe+ subscriptions.

The Service is developed and operated by Farid Mammadov, an individual developer (not a company) based in Baku, Azerbaijan. He is also the developer and seller of the LocaVibe app in the App Store.

You can contact us at any time at web.pro.farid@gmail.com. More ways to get help are on our Support page.

• You must be at least 18 years old. We ask for your date of birth when you sign up. Other users only see your age, never your date of birth. The app is rated 18+ in the App Store.
• Nightlife activities are only for people aged 21 and over, in line with the legal drinking age in Dubai. They aren’t shown to users under 21, and you must not try to get around this restriction.
• One person, one account. Your account is personal. Don’t create more than one account, create an account for someone else, or share, sell or transfer your account. If we’ve suspended or banned you, you may not create a new account without our written permission.
• Accurate information. You must give accurate information about yourself, including your real first name, your own photos, your true date of birth and your gender. Your date of birth and gender can’t be changed in the app after sign-up; if you made a mistake, contact us and we may ask you to confirm the correct details.
• Legal capacity. You must be legally able to enter into a binding contract, and you must not be barred from using the Service under the laws that apply to you.

We remove accounts that belong to people under 18. If you think someone is under 18, please report them in the app using the reason “looks under 18”.

LocaVibe is designed for meetups in and around Dubai. If you use the Service from anywhere else, you’re responsible for complying with local laws.

You sign in to the app using Sign in with Apple. If we offer other ways to sign in — such as a six-digit one-time code sent to your email address — and you use them, these rules apply to them too. The partner cabinet on our website uses a one-time email code. We don’t use passwords.

• Keep your Apple ID and any email account you use to sign in secure — whoever controls them can sign in to your LocaVibe account.
• Never share a sign-in code with anyone. We will never ask you for your code.
• You’re responsible for what happens under your account, unless it results from our failure to take reasonable security measures.
• If you think someone else has accessed your account, contact us immediately at web.pro.farid@gmail.com.

Before we act on a request about an account, we may ask you to confirm that it belongs to you — for example, by writing to us from the email address linked to the account.

LocaVibe helps people find company for spontaneous offline activities in Dubai happening today or tomorrow — for example cinema, coffee, food, sport, walks, the beach, nightlife, events and concerts, culture and exhibitions, games and quizzes, and trips out of town.

Activities

Any user can create an activity by choosing a category, a title and description, a time today or tomorrow, a place on the map, a group size of 2 to 20 people (including the host) and a meetup language. The host decides whether people can join straight away or only “by request”, in which case the host sees each requester’s profile and optional note and approves or declines them. Women can also mark an activity as girls only. Hosts can edit or cancel their activities and remove participants, and participants can leave an activity at any time.

Approved participants join the activity’s group chat. Activities end automatically, and past activities disappear from the feed. You can share an activity with a link (such as https://locavibe.dilami.pro/a/…) that opens it in the app; the web page behind the link doesn’t show personal data about the host or participants.

Events

The Events section lists events published by approved venues and organisers (“partners”) and events we select (marked “LocaVibe pick”). Every partner event is reviewed before it’s published. You can create an activity linked to an event to find company for it. Tickets, where needed, are sold by the partner or a third party through their own links — LocaVibe doesn’t sell tickets and isn’t a party to those sales.

Chats

Each activity has a real-time group chat for its approved participants. You can send direct messages to someone only if you were both approved participants of the same meetup, that meetup has already started, and neither of you has blocked the other.

Free plan and LocaVibe+

The basic Service is free. On the free plan, you can create up to 2 activities in any 24-hour period and have up to 5 pending join requests at a time. LocaVibe+ is an optional paid subscription that removes these limits and adds extra features — see LocaVibe+ subscriptions.

Safety tools

We provide tools to help you stay safe, including optional selfie verification, reporting and blocking, “Share meetup with a friend” links for a trusted person, and an SOS screen with quick access to emergency numbers. These tools are aids, not guarantees of anyone’s safety or behaviour. LocaVibe is not an emergency service: in an emergency, call 999 (police) or 998 (ambulance).

Availability

We work hard to keep the Service running, but we don’t guarantee that it will always be available, uninterrupted or error-free. We may need to suspend it for maintenance, updates or reasons outside our control.

You agree to use the Service lawfully, respectfully and in line with our Community Guidelines. In particular, you must not:

• post, send or share anything that is unlawful, harassing, threatening, hateful, discriminatory, defamatory, sexually explicit, violent or otherwise objectionable, or that offends public morals or religion in the UAE;
• offer, request or arrange sexual services, escort services or any form of paid companionship;
• post anything that sexualises, exploits or endangers anyone under 18, or use the Service to contact minors;
• promote, arrange or take part in illegal activities through the Service, including those involving drugs, weapons, gambling or the unlicensed sale of alcohol;
• scam, defraud or mislead others, ask other users for money, or promote investment, cryptocurrency or pyramid schemes;
• send spam, advertise, sell or recruit — except for partners using the partner features as permitted by these Terms;
• impersonate any person or organisation, use someone else’s photos, or misrepresent your identity, age or gender;
• collect, publish or share other people’s personal information, private messages or photos without their consent, or use the Service to stalk, track or monitor anyone;
• create fake or misleading activities, events or reviews, or use activities to lure people somewhere under false pretences;
• get around age limits, girls-only restrictions, blocks, suspensions, bans, plan limits or any other access controls;
• misuse the reporting tools, for example by making reports you know are false;
• scrape, crawl or harvest data, use bots or other automated means to access the Service, or interfere with, overload or disrupt the Service or its security;
• copy, modify, reverse-engineer or create derivative works of the app, except to the extent that applicable law allows this despite this restriction;
• upload viruses or other harmful code; or
• break any applicable law, including the UAE’s laws on cybercrime (such as Federal Decree-Law No. 34 of 2021 on Combatting Rumours and Cybercrimes), privacy and public decency.

These rules also apply to how you behave at meetups arranged through the Service. We may act on reports about behaviour at a meetup, even if it didn’t happen in the app.

“Your content” means anything you add to the Service — for example, your profile details and photos, activities, join-request notes, messages, ratings and reports and, for partners, business profiles, logos and events.

You own your content. To run the Service, we need your permission to use it. You therefore grant LocaVibe a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, process, adapt (for example, resize or compress images), display and distribute your content, and to let our service providers do so on our behalf, solely to provide, operate, moderate, secure and improve the Service. For partners, this includes displaying and promoting your business profile and events in the app, on our website and in links and previews of them.

This licence ends when your content is deleted from the Service, except for: content that others have received — such as messages you sent in chats with other people, which stay visible to them without your name or photo after you delete your account; copies in backups, for up to 30 days; and content we must keep to comply with the law, resolve disputes or complete safety investigations. We won’t use your profile photos in advertising outside the Service without your permission.

You promise that:

• you own your content or have all the rights and permissions needed to post it, including the consent of anyone who appears in your photos;
• your content is accurate and not misleading; and
• your content, and our use of it as described in these Terms, doesn’t break the law or infringe anyone’s rights, including intellectual property, privacy and image rights.

We don’t review all content before it appears, and we’re not responsible for content posted by users or partners. Opinions expressed in user content are those of the people who post them.

If you send us feedback or suggestions, we may use them without any obligation to you.

We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. To keep LocaVibe safe, we use a combination of automated tools and human moderators:

• Automated filter. Names, bios, activities, messages, events and partner profiles are checked against a list of banned words in English, Russian, Arabic and Hindi. Content that contains a banned word is blocked and not published. No filter is perfect, so it may miss some objectionable content or block harmless text.
• Reports. You can report users, activities, messages and events in the app, choosing a reason (harassment or threats, “I feel unsafe”, fake profile, inappropriate content, spam or ads, looks under 18, or something else) and adding details if you wish. You can report a partner by reporting one of its events or by emailing us. Our moderators review reports within 24 hours. How to report is explained step by step in our Community Guidelines.
• Automatic hiding. When three different users report the same activity, message or user, it’s automatically hidden until a moderator has reviewed it.
• Blocking. You can block any user. Blocking hides you and that person from each other everywhere in the app — in the feed, on the map, on profiles, in chats and when joining activities — and removes each of you from the other’s upcoming activities.

If we find that content or behaviour breaks these Terms or the Community Guidelines, or we reasonably believe it puts anyone at risk, we may, with or without notice: remove or hide content; issue a warning; limit features; reject or unpublish events; suspend partners; temporarily suspend an account; or permanently ban an account. We may ban an account immediately for severe violations. When an account is banned, the upcoming activities it hosts are cancelled and their participants are notified.

We’re not obliged to monitor the Service, but we may review content and activity to enforce these Terms, investigate reports and keep users safe. Where required by law, or where we believe in good faith that it’s necessary to prevent harm, we may preserve information and share it with the competent UAE authorities.

Appeals. If you believe we made a mistake, email web.pro.farid@gmail.com with the subject “Appeal” and explain why. We’ll review your appeal and let you know the outcome.

LocaVibe is a platform that helps people connect. We don’t organise, host, supervise or attend meetups arranged by users, and we’re not a party to any arrangement between users. Events marked “LocaVibe pick” are events we recommend; unless we clearly say otherwise, they’re organised by third parties.

We don’t run background or criminal record checks on users, and apart from optional selfie verification, we don’t verify users’ identity, age or other details. We can’t guarantee that people are who they say they are, or how they will behave.

You’re responsible for your own decisions and safety when you meet people through the Service. Please:

• meet in public, busy places and arrange your own transport;
• tell someone you trust where you’re going — you can use “Share meetup with a friend”;
• take care with alcohol, and never leave your drink or belongings unattended;
• leave if you feel uncomfortable — you don’t owe anyone your time; and
• report anyone who behaves inappropriately and, in an emergency, call 999 (police) or 998 (ambulance).

Some activities — such as sport, beach outings and trips out of town — involve physical risk, especially in hot weather. Take part only if you’re fit and prepared to, follow venue rules and safety instructions, and consider arranging appropriate insurance.

Hosts are responsible for describing their activities accurately and for choosing lawful, appropriate places. Any costs, bookings or payments (for example, splitting a bill or buying tickets) are arranged between users and third parties at their own risk; LocaVibe isn’t involved and isn’t responsible for them.

More safety advice is in our Community Guidelines.

Verification is optional. To get the verified badge, you take a selfie with your front camera while making a gesture that the app asks for at random (a peace sign, a thumbs up, an open palm, a finger pointing up or an OK sign). A LocaVibe moderator then manually compares your selfie with your main profile photo. We don’t use automated facial recognition and we don’t create biometric templates. You’ll either receive the badge or be told why your request was rejected. You can make up to 3 attempts per day.

The verified badge means only that, when the request was reviewed, a moderator was reasonably satisfied that the person in the selfie matched the person in the main profile photo. It doesn’t confirm anyone’s legal identity, name, age, background or intentions, and it isn’t a guarantee of safety.

You must only submit a live selfie of yourself. Submitting someone else’s photo or a manipulated image will lead to a ban. We may remove a badge if we have reason to believe it’s no longer accurate — for example, if your profile photos no longer show the person who was verified. Selfies are stored privately, can be accessed only by our moderators and are deleted no later than 30 days after the review decision — see our Privacy Policy.

Women can mark the activities they host as “girls only”. Girls-only activities can be created, seen and joined only by users whose profile gender is “woman”, and this setting can’t be changed after the activity is published.

• Only use girls-only activities if you are a woman.
• Misrepresenting your gender — to access girls-only activities or for any other reason — will lead to a permanent ban.
• Your gender can’t be changed in the app after sign-up. If it was set incorrectly, contact us.
• If someone who doesn’t belong joins or turns up at a girls-only activity, please report them.

Girls-only activities can reduce some risks, but they can’t remove them. The advice in Meeting people in person still applies.

For 72 hours after a meetup, participants can rate each other from 1 to 5 stars or mark someone as “wasn’t there” (a no-show).

• Individual ratings are anonymous. Other users see only totals: the average rating, the number of ratings, the number of meetups and the number of no-shows.
• A no-show is counted only if the host or at least two participants mark the person as “wasn’t there”.
• Ratings must be honest and based on the meetup itself. Don’t offer, request, trade or threaten ratings, retaliate against anyone, or arrange fake meetups to influence ratings.

Ratings reflect other users’ opinions, not ours, and we don’t check each one. We may remove ratings or no-shows that we believe are fraudulent, manipulated or abusive. If you think a no-show was recorded by mistake, contact us.

LocaVibe+ is an optional auto-renewable subscription. It currently includes: unlimited activities and pending join requests; extra filters, such as host age and verified hosts only; priority for your join requests, which hosts see first; a LocaVibe+ badge on your profile and requests; and one boost per day to lift one of your activities to the top of the feed. The features, subscription periods and prices available to you are shown in the app and in the App Store before you buy. We may change the features included in LocaVibe+ from time to time.

Purchase and automatic renewal

• LocaVibe+ can only be bought through Apple’s In-App Purchase system.
• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm your purchase.
• Your subscription renews automatically for the same period unless you cancel it at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Your Apple ID account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period, at the price that applies at that time.
• You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID settings: on your iPhone, go to Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions, or open the App Store, tap your profile picture and choose Subscriptions. If you cancel, you keep LocaVibe+ until the end of the period you’ve already paid for.
• If we offer a free trial or an introductory price, its terms are shown before you confirm. Any unused part of a free trial ends when you buy a subscription.

Price changes

We may change the price of LocaVibe+. Apple will tell you about a price change in line with its rules and, where Apple requires it, will ask for your agreement before a higher price applies to your subscription.

Refunds

Payments are processed by Apple, and refunds are handled by Apple under its policies — you can request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. We can’t issue refunds for App Store purchases ourselves. This doesn’t affect any rights you have under applicable consumer protection law. If we suspend or ban your account for breaking these Terms, any refund is at Apple’s discretion under its policies.

Deleting your account

Deleting your LocaVibe account doesn’t cancel your subscription. You must also cancel LocaVibe+ in your Apple ID settings, or Apple may continue to charge you.

Subscription management and Apple terms

We use RevenueCat to manage subscription status. RevenueCat receives purchase receipts and an app user ID, but never your card details. Your purchase is also subject to the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions and, where applicable, Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement.

Venues and event organisers (“partners”) can register in the partner cabinet at https://locavibe.dilami.pro/partner to publish events in the Events section and to buy paid promotions. Partners’ use of the Service is also governed by the Partner terms below.

• Every partner event is reviewed by LocaVibe before it’s published, and we can reject or unpublish events.
• Paid placements — at the top of the feed, as a highlighted pin on the map or as the banner in the Events section — are labelled “Promo”.
• Partners are responsible for their events, including their accuracy, prices, offers, licences and age limits.
• Tickets are sold by partners or third parties through their own links and under their own terms. LocaVibe isn’t a party to ticket sales or other transactions between you and partners, so please contact the organiser about tickets, changes, cancellations and refunds.

If an event or partner isn’t what it claims to be, please report it in the app.

The Service works with, and links to, services provided by other companies — for example Apple (Sign in with Apple, the App Store, In-App Purchase and push notifications), map and navigation services, Stripe (partner payments), partners’ websites and social media pages, and ticketing websites. Your use of these services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

We don’t control and aren’t responsible for third-party services, websites or content, or for any transaction between you and a third party. A link to a third-party website doesn’t mean that we endorse it.

The Service — including the app and website software, design, text, graphics, logos and the LocaVibe name and brand — is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Apart from your content, nothing in these Terms transfers any rights in the Service to you.

Subject to these Terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable licence to download and use the app on devices you own or control, and to use the website, for your personal, non-commercial use. Partners may also use the partner cabinet for their business in line with the Partner terms. You may not use our name, logos or trademarks without our prior written permission.

Copyright and trademark complaints. If you believe that content on the Service infringes your rights, email us at web.pro.farid@gmail.com with: your name and contact details; a description of the work or mark you believe is infringed; where the content appears on the Service (for example, a share link or a screenshot); and a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and that you own the rights or are authorised to act for the owner. We’ll review the complaint and may remove the content and suspend repeat infringers.

Our Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use and share it (including verification selfies and location), how long we keep it and your rights under the UAE Personal Data Protection Law. Please read it carefully.

Please respect other people’s privacy too: don’t copy, record or share other users’ personal information, messages or photos outside the Service without their consent. Doing so may break these Terms and UAE law.

You can leave at any time. You can stop using the Service whenever you want and delete your account in the app: Profile → Settings → Delete account. Our account deletion page explains what happens to your data. Deleting your account doesn’t cancel a LocaVibe+ subscription — cancel it separately in your Apple ID settings.

We may suspend or end your access to all or part of the Service, with or without notice, if:

• you break these Terms or the Community Guidelines;
• we’re required to do so by law or by a competent authority;
• we reasonably believe that your use of the Service creates a risk of harm or legal exposure for other users, third parties or us; or
• we decide to stop providing the Service, in which case we’ll give you reasonable notice where possible.

Where appropriate and lawful, we’ll tell you the reason for our decision and how to appeal. If your account is suspended or ended, your licence to use the Service ends, the upcoming activities you host may be cancelled, and your data is handled as described in our Privacy Policy.

Sections of these Terms that by their nature should continue after termination — including those on content licences, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and governing law — continue to apply.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of fitness for a particular purpose, quality, accuracy or non-infringement.

In particular, we don’t guarantee:

• that you’ll find company for an activity, or that any activity or event will take place as described;
• the identity, age, conduct or intentions of any user or partner, or the accuracy of profiles, ratings, verification badges, event details or promotions;
• that our filters and moderation will catch all objectionable content or behaviour; or
• that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure or free from errors.

Safety features are there to help, but they don’t guarantee your safety. We don’t monitor meetups, “Share meetup with a friend” links or your use of the SOS screen, and we don’t contact emergency services for you. Locations and distances shown in the app are approximate.

Nothing in these Terms affects any rights you have under applicable law that can’t be excluded by contract, including under UAE Federal Law No. 15 of 2020 on Consumer Protection.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

• LocaVibe is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, revenue, business, data, goodwill or opportunity, arising out of or in connection with the Service;
• LocaVibe is not liable for the acts or omissions of users, partners or other third parties — online or offline, including at meetups and events — or for content they provide; and
• our total liability to you for all claims arising out of or in connection with the Service or these Terms is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid for LocaVibe+ or promotions (as applicable) in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim and (b) AED 500.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the laws of the UAE.

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify us and the people who help us run the Service, such as moderators and contractors, against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to:

• your content;
• your breach of these Terms or of any law;
• your infringement of anyone else’s rights; or
• your conduct at meetups or events you host or attend through the Service and, for partners, your events, offers, promotions and licences.

We’ll tell you promptly about any such claim, and we may choose to take over its defence, in which case you agree to cooperate with us.

These Terms, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or the Service, are governed by the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and the applicable federal laws of the United Arab Emirates.

If you have a complaint, please contact us first at web.pro.farid@gmail.com with the subject “Complaint”, so we can try to resolve it informally. We aim to resolve complaints within 30 days.

If we can’t resolve a dispute informally, the courts of the Emirate of Dubai will have exclusive jurisdiction, unless mandatory law gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere. Nothing in this section prevents you from contacting a consumer protection authority or the UAE Data Office.

If you downloaded the LocaVibe app from Apple’s App Store, the following terms also apply:

• Acknowledgement. These Terms are concluded between you and Farid Mammadov only, and not with Apple Inc. (“Apple”). We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the app and its content.
• Scope of licence. Your licence to use the app is limited to a non-transferable licence to use it on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the app may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing where Apple allows this.
• Maintenance and support. We are solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support for the app, as described in these Terms or as required by law. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to provide any maintenance or support services for the app.
• Warranty. We are solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) of the app to you. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the app, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty are our responsibility, to the extent not disclaimed in these Terms.
• Product claims. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the app or your possession and use of it, including: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy or similar legislation.
• Intellectual property rights. If a third party claims that the app or your possession and use of it infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of that claim.
• Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Developer name and address. Any questions, complaints or claims about the app should be directed to Farid Mammadov, Baku, Azerbaijan, email: web.pro.farid@gmail.com.
• Third-party terms. When using the app, you must comply with any applicable third-party terms, such as your mobile data service agreement.
• Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Once you accept these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.

These Partner terms apply, in addition to the rest of these Terms, to businesses and organisers (“partners”) that use the partner cabinet. If there’s a conflict, these Partner terms prevail for partner activities.

Registration and review

• The partner cabinet is available on the web at https://locavibe.dilami.pro/partner. You sign in with a one-time code sent to your email address.
• The person registering must be at least 18 and authorised to act for the business, and the business must hold all licences and permits required for its activities in the UAE.
• You create a business profile (name, category, description, website, Instagram, phone, email, address, map location and logo). We review every profile before it’s approved; its status can be pending, approved, rejected or suspended. We may ask for information to confirm your identity or licences, and we may reject a profile at our discretion.
• Approved partner profiles and published events are public and can be seen by anyone, including people who aren’t signed in.

Events

• Approved partners can submit events for the Events section. Every event is moderated before it’s published and can be rejected with a reason or unpublished later — for example, if it’s inaccurate, breaches these Terms or the Community Guidelines, attracts well-founded complaints or has been cancelled.
• You’re responsible for making sure that your events and all information about them — including dates, times, venue, prices, offers, age limits and dress codes — are accurate, lawful and kept up to date. If an event changes or is cancelled, update or remove it promptly.
• You’re responsible for holding and complying with all licences and permits your events need, including alcohol licensing and legal age limits. Events that involve nightlife or alcohol must be limited to guests aged 21 and over.
• Tickets are sold by you or third parties through your own links and under your own terms. LocaVibe isn’t a party to ticket sales and doesn’t handle payments, refunds or customer service for tickets.
• Users may create activities linked to your events to find company. Those activities are user content, not yours, and are subject to the same rules as other activities.
• You must not use the Service to collect users’ personal data or to contact users for marketing outside the Service, and you must not publish misleading, discriminatory or sexualised content.

Promotions

• You can buy paid promotions for selected dates: a place at the top of the feed, a highlighted pin on the map or the banner in the Events section. Promoted items are labelled “Promo”.
• Prices are in UAE dirhams (AED) and are shown in the partner cabinet before you pay. The amount shown at checkout is the total you’ll be charged.
• Payment is made by card through Stripe Checkout. Stripe processes your card details under its own terms; we don’t see or store them. We store only your Stripe customer ID, checkout and payment IDs, amounts and dates.
• Promotions are subject to moderation and to your event remaining published. Promotions increase visibility but don’t guarantee any particular number of views, sign-ups or ticket sales.

Cancellations and refunds

• If you ask us to cancel a promotion before its first day, we’ll refund it in full.
• Once a promotion period has started, it’s non-refundable — except where LocaVibe removes the promotion or the event for reasons other than your breach of these Terms, in which case we’ll refund the unused days.
• If we remove a promotion or event because you breached these Terms, no refund is due.
• Refunds are made to the original payment method through Stripe. How long they take to appear depends on your bank.

Suspension and ending your partnership

We may reject, unpublish or suspend partner profiles, events and promotions if you breach these Terms, if we receive credible complaints or legal requests, or if we reasonably believe that a partner or event puts users at risk. To delete your partner profile, email web.pro.farid@gmail.com from the email address of your partner account. We keep business records, such as invoices and payment records, for as long as UAE law requires (generally 5 years).

You are responsible for your events, offers, promotions and licences, and the Indemnity section applies to them.

• Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Community Guidelines, the Privacy Policy and any additional terms for specific features, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.
• Severability. If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
• No waiver. If we don’t enforce a right straight away, we don’t give it up.
• Assignment. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms. We may transfer ours — for example, to a company that we set up to operate the Service, or as part of a sale of the Service — provided that your rights under these Terms aren’t reduced as a result.
• Events outside our control. We’re not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
• Notices. We may send you notices through the app, by email to the address linked to your account, or on this website.
• Third-party rights. Except for Apple, as described in Additional terms for the iOS app, no one other than you and us has any right to enforce these Terms.
• Language. These Terms are available in English and Russian. If the versions differ, the English version prevails, to the extent permitted by law.
