These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and SnapDolphin. By checking the acceptance box at sign-up, or by creating an account or using SnapDolphin, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the service. You must be at least 13 years old to use SnapDolphin and to create an account.
SnapDolphin helps you discover venues and events in New Jersey — with vibe scores, live Snap-Check status, Night Owl mode, the Pulse Map, and community reviews. It is an information and discovery service. We do not own, operate, or control the venues or events listed, and we are not a ticket seller or an agent of any venue or promoter.
Hours, prices, busyness signals, vibe scores, event dates, and similar details come from public sources, partners, and the community, and they change in the real world faster than any app can track. Always confirm directly with the venue or event organizer before making plans that matter to you. We do not warrant that any listing is accurate, complete, current, or reliable, and "open now," distance, and similar signals are estimates, not guarantees. A sponsored or featured label is a paid placement and is not an endorsement of accuracy.
Provide accurate information, keep your credentials confidential, and don't share your account. You are responsible for activity under your account. You can delete your account at any time in Settings; deletion requests are completed within 30 days. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
You agree not to: post false, fake, or incentivized reviews or otherwise manipulate ratings; check in at places you are not actually visiting; harass, threaten, or defame others; post unlawful, hateful, or sexually explicit content; impersonate anyone; scrape, bulk-extract, or harvest data; probe, overload, or disrupt the service; or use SnapDolphin to send spam.
We respect intellectual-property rights and respond to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512). If you believe content on SnapDolphin infringes your copyright, send a notice with the elements required by § 512(c)(3) to our designated agent:
DMCA Designated Agent · SnapDolphin
Email: support@snapdolphin.com (subject line: "DMCA Notice")
We provide a counter-notice procedure under § 512(g), and we have adopted and will reasonably implement a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.
SnapDolphin is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement, and any warranty that venue or event information is accurate, current, complete, or uninterrupted. Your use of the service and any reliance on its listings is at your own risk.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, SnapDolphin will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from your reliance on a listing (including a venue being closed, full, louder than expected, or an event being moved or cancelled). SnapDolphin's total liability for any claim relating to the service will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or (b) US $100.
These limits do not apply to liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct, or fraud.
If you are a New Jersey consumer, the following applies and controls over anything inconsistent in these Terms. The limitations in Sections 8 (Disclaimer) and 9 (Limitation of Liability) do not apply to you to the extent they would limit: (a) liability for negligence resulting in personal injury, or for grossly negligent, reckless, or intentional conduct; or (b) any right or remedy, including any right to recover attorneys' fees, under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, the New Jersey Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty and Notice Act (N.J.S.A. 56:12-14 et seq.), the Punitive Damages Act, or the Product Liability Act. Those Sections apply to New Jersey residents only to the extent New Jersey law permits, and nothing in these Terms waives or limits any clearly established legal right of a New Jersey consumer or requires you to pay fees that New Jersey law does not allow us to charge.
Some placements are paid and are clearly labeled (for example, SPONSORED, FEATURED, or PREMIUM). Paid placement never alters a venue's underlying community ratings or reviews.
If a dispute arises, please first contact us at support@snapdolphin.com and give us 30 days to resolve it informally — most issues can be settled that way. If it isn't resolved, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, and you and SnapDolphin agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New Jersey — except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court. We do not require binding arbitration.
We may update these Terms. If a change is material, we will give notice by email and an in-app notice at least 15 days before it takes effect, show the new effective date, and — where required — ask you to accept the new version before continuing. Non-material updates take effect when posted. We keep prior versions available on request, and continued use after a change takes effect means you accept it.
You may stop using SnapDolphin and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access for violations of these Terms. Sections 5 (the license you granted, as needed to operate existing content), 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12, and any other terms that by their nature should survive, will survive termination.
If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary and the rest will remain in effect (read together with Section 10 for New Jersey residents). Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and SnapDolphin about the service.
