Terms of Service

Last updated: March 25, 2025

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Gravel ("Gravel", "we", "us", "our"), a car meet and social application and related services. By creating an account or using Gravel, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use personal data. It is incorporated by reference into these Terms.


1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Gravel. If you are under 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf where required by law.

2. Your account

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for all activity under your account. You agree to provide accurate information and to update it as needed. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or pose risk to the community.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

4. Content you post

You retain ownership of content you create. By posting on Gravel, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, display, and distribute that content as needed to operate and improve the service (for example, showing your posts and meets to other users).

You represent that you have the rights to post your content and that it does not violate these Terms or applicable law. We may remove content or restrict features when we reasonably believe it violates these Terms or harms the community.

5. Meets, convoys, and real-world activity

Gravel helps people find and share information about car meets and related events. You are solely responsible for your conduct offline and for complying with traffic laws, venue rules, and local regulations. We do not organize, endorse, or insure in-person events. Attend meets at your own risk.

6. Location and maps

Features that use location (nearby meets, local chat, convoy map) work only if you grant permission. You can revoke location access in your device settings. You are responsible for how you share your location with others.

7. Intellectual property

Gravel's name, branding, software, and materials are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by law. You may not use our marks or copy our product in a way that confuses users or implies endorsement without permission.

8. Third-party services

We use infrastructure providers (for example, Supabase) to run the app. Their services are subject to their own terms and policies where applicable.

9. Disclaimers

Gravel is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service. We are not responsible for user-generated content or for third-party conduct.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gravel and its operators will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits or data, arising from your use of the service. Our total liability for claims relating to the service is limited to the greater of fifty dollars (USD $50) or the amount you paid us for the service in the twelve months before the claim (if any).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the fullest extent the law allows.

11. Indemnity

You agree to defend and indemnify Gravel and its operators against claims arising from your use of the service, your content, or your violation of these Terms, to the extent permitted by law.

12. Changes

We may update these Terms as the product evolves. We will post the new date at the top of this page. If changes are material, we may notify you in the app or by email. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

13. Termination

You may stop using Gravel at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or if we need to protect users or the service. Provisions that by nature should survive (such as licenses for content already distributed, disclaimers, and limits on liability) will survive termination.

14. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which Gravel's operator is organized, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory local consumer protections apply.
