CNVY Legal Docs
These terms apply to CNVY products, features, and services. By using CNVY, you agree to this User Agreement, Terms of Service, and Data Policy.
User Agreement
CNVY is a social driving and discovery platform where people log drives, discover places, and share experiences. By creating an account or using CNVY, you agree to follow this agreement, applicable law, and all in-app rules. You are responsible for content posted through your account and for activity that occurs while you are signed in.
Your account should represent a real person or authorized organization. Keep your login credentials secure, do not share your account with others, and notify us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.
Community Rules
- No spam, scams, deceptive promotions, repetitive posting, or fake engagement behavior.
- No bots, scripts, fake accounts, automation abuse, scraping abuse, or attempts to manipulate platform metrics.
- No hate speech, harassment, bullying, threats, stalking, intimidation, or content targeting protected groups.
- No sexual exploitation, violent extremism, or instructions that facilitate illegal or dangerous behavior.
- No impersonation of people, brands, or organizations, and no false claims of affiliation.
- No posting private, personal, or sensitive information of others without clear permission.
Driving and Safety
- Do not operate CNVY in a way that distracts from safe driving. If interaction is needed, pull over safely first.
- Always follow traffic laws, posted limits, and local rules. CNVY features never override legal obligations.
- CNVY must not be used to organize, encourage, or document reckless driving or unsafe conduct.
- CNVY is not an emergency service, navigation authority, or law-enforcement substitute.
Enforcement
We may moderate content and accounts to protect users and platform integrity. Depending on severity and repeat behavior, we may remove content, issue warnings, reduce visibility, suspend features, temporarily lock accounts, or permanently terminate access.
We may preserve and disclose relevant information when required by law, court order, or legitimate safety and fraud investigations.
Terms of Service
These Terms govern your access to CNVY websites, mobile applications, APIs, and related services. If you do not agree with these Terms, do not use the service.
Eligibility and Account
- You must be at least 13 years old or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher.
- You agree to provide accurate registration information and keep your profile and contact details reasonably current.
- If you use Google sign-in, you authorize CNVY to access approved Google account details needed for secure authentication.
- You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity conducted under your account.
App Permissions
CNVY requests only the permissions needed for features you enable. These permissions can generally be adjusted in device settings.
- Location services: real-time GPS and, if enabled by you, background location for active drive tracking.
- Motion and driving telemetry: speed, route, trip timing, distance, and related driving details.
- Contacts: optional access to help find and invite people you choose to connect with.
- Photos/media: optional access to upload profile images, drive photos, and shared media content.
Denying permissions may limit or disable some functionality. You remain responsible for deciding what information to share.
User Content and Sharing Controls
You keep ownership of content you create and upload. You grant CNVY a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, store, process, reproduce, and display your content solely to operate and improve the service.
CNVY does not require you to publicly disclose sensitive data. If you intentionally share location, driving details, photos, or profile information with others, that disclosure is your decision and responsibility.
Service Availability and Changes
We may add, modify, restrict, or remove features to improve quality, security, and legal compliance. Temporary outages and maintenance may occur.
Disclaimers and Liability
CNVY is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we disclaim implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, CNVY and its affiliates are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, reputation, or business arising from use of the service.
