1. Introduction
Welcome to DriveVerse, a social car community app. By accessing or using our service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully.
2. User-Generated Content
DriveVerse allows users to post car-related issues, discuss problems, and interact with other users and mechanics. You retain ownership of your content, but grant DriveVerse a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, and distribute such content on our service.
You are solely responsible for the content you post. Content must not be illegal, infringing, harmful, abusive, or otherwise objectionable. DriveVerse reserves the right to remove any content that violates these terms.
3. Sound Uploads
Our app allows users to upload sound recordings related to car issues. These recordings must be your own original content or content you have permission to share. Sound uploads are subject to the same content guidelines as other user-generated content.
4. Community Moderation
DriveVerse employs community moderation to maintain a helpful and respectful environment. Moderators may remove content, issue warnings, or take other actions to enforce these terms. Users may also report inappropriate content for review.
5. DriveVerse Plus Subscriptions
DriveVerse offers an optional subscription service called DriveVerse Plus. This is a monthly auto-renewing subscription that unlocks premium features, including:
- An ad-free experience
- Early access to AI chatbot and other tools
- Personalized responses based on your car's VIN and data
- Additional upcoming premium features
Billing and Renewal:
DriveVerse Plus can be purchased either through your Apple account (for in-app purchases) or via our website using Stripe (for web purchases). Apple subscriptions are billed at $9.99 per month (or equivalent in your local currency) and auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing cycle. Web subscriptions are billed securely via Stripe and also auto-renew monthly unless canceled before the end of the billing period.
Managing Subscriptions:
For Apple in-app purchases, you can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID account settings. For web purchases, you can manage or cancel your subscription at any time by clicking 'Manage Subscription' in your account settings, which will take you to our secure Stripe billing portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No refunds or partial credits will be issued.
6. Disclaimer of Professional Advice
DriveVerse is a platform for car enthusiasts to share information and experiences. The advice, suggestions, and information provided by users, including verified mechanics or AI tools, should not be considered professional advice. Always consult with a qualified professional before making decisions about your vehicle's maintenance or repair.
DriveVerse is not responsible for any actions taken based on information provided through our service.
7. Acceptable Behavior
Users must treat others with respect. Harassment, hate speech, discrimination, or threatening behavior will not be tolerated. Users must not impersonate others or create accounts for fraudulent purposes.
8. Account Termination
DriveVerse reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in illegal activity, or for any other reason at our sole discretion. We may also terminate accounts that have been inactive for an extended period.
9. Changes to Terms
DriveVerse may modify these terms at any time. We will provide notice of significant changes. Your continued use of the service after such modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, DriveVerse shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages resulting from your use or inability to use the service.
