PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR USE OF AND ACCESS TO OUR SERVICES (DEFINED BELOW) ARE SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS; IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE FOLLOWING, YOU MAY NOT USE OR ACCESS THE SERVICES IN ANY MANNER.

Effective date: September 24, 2019

Welcome to Hobnob.io. Please read on to learn the rules and restrictions that govern your use of our mobile application, website(s), products, services and applications (the “Services”). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding these terms or the Services, please contact us at help [at] hobnob.io . PO Box 1407, Haiku, HI 96708.

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a binding contract between you and MYHOBNOB, INC. (“Hobnob,” “we” and “us”). You must agree to and accept all of the Terms, or you don’t have the right to use the Services. Your using the Services in any way means that you agree to all of these Terms, and these Terms will remain in effect while you use the Services. These Terms include the provisions in this document, as well as those in the Hobnob Privacy Policy and Copyright Dispute Policy.

Will these Terms ever change?

We are constantly trying to improve our Services, so these Terms may need to change along with the Services. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time, but if we do, we will bring it to your attention by placing a notice on the hobnob.io website, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means such as, but not limited to, an in-app alert.

If you don’t agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.

Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.

What about my privacy?

Hobnob takes the privacy of its users very seriously. For the current Hobnob Privacy Policy, please click here.

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from children under 13; if you are a child under 13, please do not attempt to register for the Services or send any personal information about yourself to us. If we learn we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that a child under 13 may have provided us personal information, please contact us at help [at] hobnob.io.

What are the basics of using Hobnob?

You may be required to sign up for an account, and provide a password and mobile number, which will be used as your user name (“Hobnob User ID”). You promise to provide us with accurate, complete, and updated registration information about yourself. You may not select as your Hobnob User ID a name that you don’t have the right to use, or another person’s name with the intent to impersonate that person. You may not transfer your account to anyone else without our prior written permission.

You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract (or if not, you’ve received your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use the Services and gotten your parent or guardian to agree to these Terms on your behalf). If you’re agreeing to these Terms on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Terms on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to these Terms (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity).

You will only use the Services for your own internal, personal, non-commercial use, and not on behalf of or for the benefit of any third party, and only in a manner that complies with all laws that apply to you. If your use of the Services is prohibited by applicable laws, then you aren’t authorized to use the Services. We cannot and will not be responsible for your using the Services in a way that breaks the law.

You will not share your account information or password with anyone, and you must protect the security of your account and your password. You are responsible for any activity associated with your account.

Your use of the Services is subject to the following additional restrictions:

You represent, warrant, and agree that you will not contribute any Content or User Submission (each of those terms is defined below) or otherwise use the Services or interact with the Services in a manner that:

1. Infringes or violates the intellectual property rights or any other rights of anyone else (including Hobnob);
2. Violates any law or regulation, including any applicable export control laws;
3. Is harmful, fraudulent, deceptive, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable;
4. Jeopardizes the security of your Hobnob account or anyone else’s (such as allowing someone else to log in to the Services as you);
5. Attempts, in any manner, to obtain the password, account, or other security information from any other user;
6. Violates the security of any computer network, or cracks any passwords or security encryption codes;
7. Runs Maillist, Listserv, any form of auto-responder or “spam” on the Services, or any processes that run or are activated while you are not logged into the Services, or that otherwise interfere with the proper working of the Services (including by placing an unreasonable load on the Services’ infrastructure);
8. “Crawls,” “scrapes,” or “spiders” any page, data, or portion of or relating to the Services or Content (through use of manual or automated means);
9. Copies or stores any significant portion of the Content;
10. Decompiles, reverse engineers, or otherwise attempts to obtain the source code or underlying ideas or information of or relating to the Services.

A violation of any of the foregoing is grounds for termination of your right to use or access the Services.

What are my rights in Hobnob?

The materials displayed or performed or available on or through the Services, including, but not limited to, text, graphics, data, articles, photos, images, illustrations, User Submissions, and so forth (all of the foregoing, the “Content”) are protected by copyright and/or other intellectual property laws. You promise to abide by all copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and restrictions contained in any Content you access through the Services, and you will not use, copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content not owned by you, (i) without the prior consent of the owner of that Content or (ii) in a way that violates someone else’s (including Hobnob’s) rights.

You understand that Hobnob owns the Services. You will not modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce (except as expressly provided in this Section), create derivative works based on, or otherwise exploit any of the Services.

The Services may allow you to copy or download certain Content; please remember that just because this functionality exists, doesn’t mean that all the restrictions above don’t apply – they do!

Do I have to grant any licenses to Hobnob or to other users?

Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services is your “User Submission.” Some User Submissions are viewable by other users. In order to display your User Submissions on the Services, and to allow other users to enjoy them (where applicable), you grant us certain rights in those User Submissions. Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to our Privacy Policy to the extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable information.

For all User Submissions, you hereby grant Hobnob a license to translate, modify (for technical purposes, for example making sure your content is viewable on an iPhone and an iPad, as well as a computer) and reproduce and otherwise act with respect to such User Submissions, in each case to enable us to operate the Services, including to produce any product you or such other users request, as described in more detail below. This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.

If you store a User Submission in your own personal Hobnob account, in a manner that is not viewable by any other user except you (a “Personal User Submission”), you grant Hobnob the license above, as well as a license to display, perform, reproduce, and distribute your Personal User Submission for the sole purpose of making that Personal User Submission accessible to you and providing the Services necessary to do so and/or produce any product containing such Personal User Submission you request.

If you share a User Submission only in a manner that only certain specified users can view (for example, a private message to one or more other users)(a “Limited Audience User Submission”), then you grant Hobnob the licenses above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Limited Audience User Submission for the sole purpose of making that Limited Audience User Submission accessible to such other specified users, and providing the Services necessary to do so, as well as all other rights necessary to produce any product containing such Limited Audience User Submission such other users request. Also, you grant such other specified users a license to access that Limited Audience User Submission, and to use and exercise all rights in it, as permitted by the functionality of the Services.

If you share a User Submission publicly on the Services and/or in a manner that more than just you or certain specified users can view, or if you provide us (in a direct email or otherwise) with any feedback, suggestions, improvements, enhancements, and/or feature requests relating to the Services] (each of the foregoing, a “Public User Submission”), then you grant Hobnob the licenses above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Public User Submission for the purpose of making that Public User Submission accessible to all Hobnob users and providing the Services necessary to do so, as well as all other rights necessary to use and exercise all rights in that Public User Submission in connection with the Services and/or otherwise in connection with Hobnob’s business, including producing any product containing such Public User Submission that other users request. Also, you grant all other users of the Services a license to access that Public User Submission, and to use and exercise all rights in it, as permitted by the functionality of the Services.

Certain functionality of the Services allows users, including you, to purchase goods containing User Submissions. If you share a User Submission as a Limited Audience User Submission or a Public User Submission, you understand that the foregoing license grants include the right to reproduce and distribute such User Submissions by and for the specified users.

You agree that the licenses you grant are royalty-free, perpetual, sublicensable, irrevocable, and worldwide, provided that when you delete your Hobnob account, we will stop displaying your User Submissions (other than Public User Submissions, which may remain fully available) to other users (if applicable), but you understand and agree that it may not be possible to completely delete that content from Hobnob’s records, and that your User Submissions may remain viewable elsewhere to the extent that they were copied or stored by other users.

Finally, you understand and agree that Hobnob, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt those User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.

What if I see something on the Services that infringes my copyright?

You may have heard of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”), as it relates to online service providers, like Hobnob, being asked to remove material that allegedly violates someone’s copyright. We respect others’ intellectual property rights, and we reserve the right to delete or disable Content alleged to be infringing, and to terminate the accounts of repeat alleged infringers; to review our complete Copyright Dispute Policy and learn how to report potentially infringing content, click here. To learn more about the DMCA, click here.

Who is responsible for what I see and do on the Services?

Any information or content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such content originated, and you access all such information and content at your own risk, and we are not liable for any errors or omissions in that information or content or for any damages or loss you might suffer in connection with it. We cannot control and have no duty to take any action regarding how you may interpret and use the Content or what actions you may take as a result of having been exposed to the Content, and you hereby release us from all liability for you having acquired or not acquired Content through the Services. We cannot guarantee the identity of any users with whom you interact in using the Services and are not responsible for which users gain access to the Services.

You are responsible for all Content you contribute, in any manner, to the Services, and you represent and warrant you have all rights necessary to do so, in the manner in which you contribute it. You will keep all your registration information accurate and current. You are responsible for all your activity in connection with the Services.

The Services may contain links or connections to third party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Hobnob. When you access third party websites or use third party services, you accept that there are risks in doing so, and that Hobnob is not responsible for such risks. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Services and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each third party website or service that you visit or utilize.

You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction with any of these third parties. You agree that Hobnob shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings.

If there is a dispute between participants on this site, or between users and any third party, you agree that Hobnob is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you release Hobnob, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our Services. If you are a California resident, you shall and hereby do waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”

What do I need to know about sending text messages through the Services?

As part of the Services, you may be able to send short message service (“SMS”) or text messages (collectively referred to as “Messages”) to your friends or other people you know (“Recipients) through the Services. You must have permission from each Recipient before you send any Messages to such Recipient through the Services. If you do not have permission to send messages to a Recipient, you must not send any Messages through the Services to such Recipient.

You will be responsible for complying with the TCPA, all regulations promulgated under the TCPA, and with any applicable state laws.

Will Hobnob ever change the Services?

We’re always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. We’ll try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always practical. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content from the Services at any time, for any reason (including, but not limited to, if someone alleges you contributed that Content in violation of these Terms), in our sole discretion, and without notice.

Does Hobnob cost anything?

Hobnob currently offers both a free version of the Hobnob Services and paid subscriptions that enable you to access certain additional features of the Services. For details on the features and subscription fees for each type of subscription, see the FAQ section on Subscriptions. If you choose to enroll in a paid subscription, you agree to pay all applicable subscription fees for the subscription you select (the “Subscription Fees”). At enrollment, you can select a monthly or annual subscription term (the “Subscription Term”). Subscription Fees are non-refundable and are due in advance on either a monthly or annual basis, depending on the Subscription Term you select. Subscription Fees will be charged to the credit card you provide upon enrollment. Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each Subscription Term unless you cancel your subscription through the App Store or Google Play store prior to the end of the applicable Subscription Term. You may cancel your subscription at any time, but again, no refunds will be granted for Subscription Fees paid.

Hobnob may change the subscription fees, the available features, and the types of subscriptions it offers at any time upon notice to you, but such change will only take effect once your then-current Subscription Term has ended. Your use of the Services following such notification constitutes your acceptance of any new or increased charges. If you do not wish to pay the new Subscription Fees, your only remedy shall be to cancel your subscription, prior to the expiration of your then-current Subscription Term.

You must provide current, complete and accurate payment and billing information for your account. You must properly update all information to keep your account current, complete, and accurate (for example you must notify us of a change in billing address, credit card number, or credit card expiration date). Changes to such information may be made via updating your information with the App Store or Google Play directly. Failure to keep such payment method details current and accurate may result in the suspension or termination of your access to the Services.

Your account on the Hobnob Services may be affiliated with a sponsor, such as your employer or a company with whom you have a relationship (a “Sponsor”). If you are affiliated with a Sponsor, certain features of the Hobnob Services (such as certain types of invitations you send through the Hobnob Services) may be free or subject to a discount, but Hobnob reserves the right to charge our standard pricing for certain or all of the Services in the future. If your relationship with your Sponsor terminates or if our arrangement with your Sponsor terminates or expires, you must pay all applicable fees in accordance Hobnob’s then-current standard pricing (available at the FAQ section on Subscriptions) and these Terms in order to continue using the Services.

Can I pay other users or receive payments from other users through Hobnob? Hobnob may provide a feature that enables you to make payments to other users via the Services. This feature is provided as a convenience only. Access to the payment feature is provided by our third party payment processor and Hobnob is not responsible for any failure, unavailability, inaccuracy or any other performance or non-performance of such third party payment processor. You may be required to set up an account with Hobnob’s third party payment processor and provide them with information regarding your credit card or other payment instrument for purposes of facilitating payment to other users of the Services. You agree to comply with all terms of use and other conditions required by Hobnob’s third party payment processor. You represent and warrant to Hobnob that any payment information you provide is true and that you are authorized to use the payment instrument. You agree to promptly update your account information with any changes in your information. If you dispute any charged fees, you should contact the user who received such payments. Any products or services you receive from other users and any payments you make to or receive from other users are solely between you and such other users. You are solely responsible for any losses you incur due to erroneous or fraudulent transactions with other users in connection with your use of the Services. You will be responsible and liable for any payments you receive via the Services that are subject to chargebacks, refunds, reversals, returns, or other disputes, you agree to promptly refund or pay any such disputed amounts to Hobnob or its third party payment processor.

What if I want to stop using Hobnob?

You’re free to do that at any time, by contacting us at help [at] hobnob.io; please refer to our Privacy Policy, as well as the licenses above, to understand how we treat information you provide to us after you have stopped using our Services.

Hobnob is also free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services or your account, for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of these Terms. Hobnob has the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Terms.

Account termination may result in destruction of any Content associated with your account, so keep that in mind before you decide to terminate your account. We will try to provide advance notice to you prior to our terminating your account so that you are able to retrieve any important User Submissions you may have stored in your account (to the extent allowed by law and these Terms), but we may not do so if we determine it would be impractical, illegal, not in the interest of someone’s safety or security, or otherwise harmful to the rights or property of Hobnob.

If you have deleted any Content or your account by mistake, contact us immediately at help [at] hobnob.io – we will try to help, but unfortunately, we cannot promise that we can recover or restore anything.

Provisions that, by their nature, should survive termination of these Terms shall survive termination. By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any terms regarding ownership or intellectual property rights, and terms regarding disputes between us.

I use the Hobnob App available via the Apple App Store – should I know anything about that?

These Terms apply to your use of all the Services, including the applications available via the Apple, Inc. (“Apple”) App Store (the “Application”), but the following additional terms also apply to the Application:

6. You acknowledge and agree that Hobnob, and not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims you or any third party may have in relation to the Application;
7. You acknowledge and agree that, in the event of any third party claim that the Application or your possession and use of the Application infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, Hobnob, and not Apple, will be responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such infringement claim;
8. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties;
9. Both you and Hobnob acknowledge and agree that, in your use of the Application, you will comply with any applicable third party terms of agreement which may affect or be affected by such use; and
10. Both you and Hobnob acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third party beneficiary hereof.
