Effective Date: 2 May 2026
Last Updated: 2 May 2026
Version: 1.0
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and Realbonds (“we”, “us”, “our”) and govern your access to and use of the Realbonds mobile application and any related services (collectively, the “Services”). By creating an account, signing in, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
These Terms must be read together with our Privacy Policy, which forms an integral part of this agreement.
2. Eligibility
You may use the Services only if all of the following are true:
- You are at least 16 years old. Where local law sets a higher minimum digital-services age, that higher age applies.
- You are not barred from receiving the Services under the laws of your jurisdiction or any country where we operate.
- You have not been previously suspended or removed by Realbonds.
- You will provide truthful, accurate registration information and keep it current.
If you create an account on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation to these Terms.
3. Account Registration & Security
- You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials and one-time passwords (OTPs).
- Notify us immediately at support@realbonds.app if you suspect unauthorised access.
- You are responsible for all activity under your account, including activity by others using your credentials.
- One person, one account. Sharing or transferring accounts is prohibited.
4. User-Generated Content & License
You retain all rights you have in the content you publish through the Services (“Your Content”), including stories, photos, videos, captions, comments, reviews and event details.
By publishing Your Content, you grant Realbonds a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable licence to host, store, reproduce, modify (e.g. resize, transcode), distribute and display Your Content, solely to the extent necessary to operate, promote and improve the Services. The licence ends when Your Content (or your account) is deleted, except where retention is required by law or where Your Content has been incorporated by other users (e.g. shared into their feeds) in which case it persists in those derived contexts.
You confirm that Your Content does not infringe any third-party rights and that you have all necessary permissions to share it.
5. Prohibited Conduct
You will not:
- Harass, threaten, defame, dox, or impersonate any person
- Upload illegal content, including child sexual abuse material, terrorist propaganda or content infringing intellectual property
- Use the Services for spam, fraud, money laundering or any unlawful purpose
- Spoof your location, manipulate XP or token mechanics, or evade content moderation
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, scrape or otherwise misuse the Services or our APIs
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any account, system or data
- Use the Services to build a competing product
We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts at our discretion for violations of these Terms or applicable law.
6. Tokens and In-App Purchases
- In-app purchases are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). Their terms and refund policies apply to the payment itself.
- Tokens are a virtual in-app currency only — they have no monetary value, are non-transferable, and cannot be redeemed for cash.
- Promo codes, gift bonuses and other token grants are governed by the rules displayed at the time of issuance and may have expiry dates.
- We reserve the right to modify token economics (pricing, balances, awarding logic) with reasonable notice for material changes.
7. Places, Events and Stories
You agree to use these features in accordance with our Community Guidelines (available within the app). We may remove places, events, or stories that violate these guidelines or applicable law without prior notice.
8. Termination
You may delete your account at any time via Settings → Account → Delete Account. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these Terms, expose us or other users to legal risk, or become inactive for an extended period. Upon termination, the rights you grant us under §4 continue to apply only to Your Content already shared with others, and otherwise lapse subject to the deletion timelines in our Privacy Policy.
9. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Realbonds disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement and quiet enjoyment.
We are not responsible for interactions between users — meet-ups, transactions, or any conduct outside the app are at your own risk. Use common sense and meet in public places.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Realbonds’ aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Services is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid Realbonds in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) USD 100. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, death or personal injury, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold Realbonds harmless from claims, damages and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of (i) Your Content, (ii) your breach of these Terms, or (iii) your violation of any law or third-party right. This obligation does not apply where it is excluded by mandatory consumer-protection law in your jurisdiction.
11. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Istanbul Anatolian Courts and Enforcement Offices, except that consumers domiciled in the European Union or the United Kingdom may also bring claims before the courts of their place of residence to the extent required by mandatory local law.
Nothing in these Terms requires EU consumers to waive any right under Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair contract terms or any equivalent national rule.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be notified at least 30 days in advance via in-app notice and email where required. Continued use of the Services after the effective date of an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
