Introduction
Welcome to Rindr’s mobile apps, web app, website, and related services (collectively, the “Services”) operated by Andy Judge (“Rindr”, “we”, “us”, “our”).
These Terms of Service & Conditions (this “Agreement”) set the rules for using the Services. By creating an account or using the Services, you agree to this Agreement and our Privacy Policy. Please read them carefully.
We may update this Agreement from time to time. The current version is published at https://www.rindr.app/legal/terms/ (also available as Terms & Conditions). Continued use after changes become effective means you accept the updated terms where permitted by law; where required, we may ask you to re-accept.
If you subscribe to paid features, your subscription may auto-renew unless you cancel as described in the Payments section and in your Apple, Google, or Stripe billing settings.
1. Age restrictions and safety
1.1 Adults only
The Services are intended only for legal adults. No person under eighteen (18) (or the age of majority where that is higher) may create an account or use the Services.
By accepting this Agreement and creating an account, you represent that:
- you are 18 or over (or the age of majority, if higher);
- you can lawfully enter this Agreement;
- the information you provide (including date of birth and country) is accurate.
Where required by country settings or law, we may ask for age assurance (for example selfie and/or ID). Those checks are imperfect. Providing false age information is a material breach.
1.2 Your interactions; no background checks
You are solely responsible for your use of the Services and your interactions with other users (on or off the Services). We do not control what users say or do.
We do not currently conduct criminal background checks on users. We do not independently verify identity, health, or physical condition beyond limited age/safety measures described in our policies.
Rindr is an adult dating/social product. You may see content that some people find objectionable. Meet people from Rindr at your own risk; prefer public places. We are not responsible for offline meetings or the legal consequences of using the Services where local law restricts personal interactions.
1.3 Location data warning
As explained in our Privacy Policy, location powers nearby discovery. Sophisticated users, or users who change location while you stay put, may use distance information to estimate your location. You can disable location services in device/browser settings (nearby features may then be limited).
2. International users and language
Rindr is operated from the United Kingdom. The Services may be accessed from other countries. We do not warrant that the Services are lawful or appropriate everywhere; you are responsible for complying with local law.
Your data may be processed in the UK and other countries as described in the Privacy Policy.
This English version controls if translations differ.
UK / EEA consumers: mandatory local consumer rights apply and may override conflicting contract terms. See Section 16 (Special terms).
3. Your account
- Keep registration information accurate and up to date.
- Accounts are for your personal use. Do not share login credentials or buy/sell accounts.
- You are responsible for activity under your account. Tell us promptly about suspected unauthorised access.
- The Services are not a backup service. Save important contacts/content separately if needed.
- We may delete inactive accounts or content as described in the Privacy Policy and product settings.
4. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share personal information. By using the Services, you acknowledge that processing.
5. Service modifications
We may modify, add, or discontinue features reasonably over time. If a material change to a paid plan you already purchased reduces paid functionality in a mandatory way, you may cancel and, where required by law or this Agreement, request a fair pro-rata refund for unused prepaid periods.
We may introduce or change fees prospectively. Changes generally do not affect fees already paid for a current prepaid period.
6. Our ownership
The Services (software, design, branding, text we publish, and related materials) are owned by Andy Judge or licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. Except as expressly allowed, you may not copy, modify, distribute, reverse engineer (except where law forbids that restriction), or create derivative works from our materials.
7. Community Guidelines and prohibited use
Our Community Guidelines are part of this Agreement.
We may remove content or ban accounts that violate this Agreement or the Guidelines.
You agree not to:
- use the Services if you are not a legal adult; communicate sexually with anyone you know or believe is under 18; fail to report suspected minors;
- stalk, harass, abuse, defame, threaten, extort, defraud, or impersonate others;
- collect or disclose others’ personal or location information without permission;
- post non-consensual intimate imagery, illegal content, child sexual abuse material, hate speech, or content that exploits others;
- use the Services for unsolicited commercial spam without our written permission;
- scrape, overload, or disrupt the Services; upload malware;
- infringe others’ intellectual property or privacy rights;
- use automated systems to abuse discovery, messaging, or safety systems;
- train or improve third-party AI systems using other users’ content obtained from the Services (except your own content and ordinary personal use);
- violate applicable law.
8. Premium features and payments
8.1 Paid plans
Certain features may require payment (“Premium Services”), including subscriptions, one-time purchases, or promotions shown in the app or web checkout. Pricing may vary by region, duration, and offer.
8.2 Auto-renewal
Unless stated otherwise at purchase, subscriptions automatically renew at the then-current price (plus tax) until you cancel according to the store or billing method you used (Apple App Store, Google Play, or Stripe/web checkout). Cancel before renewal to avoid the next charge. Deleting the app or account alone may not cancel store billing.
8.3 Cancellation and refunds
- Cancel via Apple, Google Play, or your Rindr/Stripe billing settings depending on where you subscribed.
- Except where consumer law or store policy requires otherwise, payments are generally non-refundable and cancellations take effect at the end of the paid period.
- Apple / Google purchases: refunds are usually handled by Apple or Google, not Rindr.
- Stripe / direct web purchases: contact support@rindr.app; we handle refunds as required by law and our policies.
8.4 Trials and promos
Free or discounted trials convert to paid plans if you do not cancel in time where auto-renew applies. Promo codes are non-transferable, may expire, and may be withdrawn.
8.5 Taxes
Unless shown otherwise at checkout, prices may exclude taxes you are responsible for paying.
9. Your content
You retain ownership of content you upload (photos, messages, profile text, etc.).
You grant Rindr a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, transmit, display, and process that content as needed to operate, secure, moderate, and improve the Services, consistent with the Privacy Policy.
You confirm you have rights to the content you upload and any people depicted have consented where required.
We may remove content or restrict accounts for safety, legal, or policy reasons. We do not endorse user content.
10. Monitoring and enforcement
We may (but are not obliged to) monitor use of the Services for safety and abuse. We may suspend or terminate access without prior notice where we reasonably believe there is a policy violation, fraud, or safety risk. Refunds apply only as expressly stated or required by law.
11. Third-party services and stores
The Services may link to third-party sites or use providers (Apple, Google, Stripe, Expo push, email/SMS gateways, Giphy, etc.). Their terms and privacy policies apply to their services. We are not responsible for third-party sites or storefronts.
Availability of mobile apps depends on the Apple App Store or Google Play. You must also comply with applicable store terms.
12. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. WE DO NOT WARRANT uninterrupted, secure, or error-free operation, or the conduct or identity of other users.
Nothing in this Agreement excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud).
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Rindr’s total liability arising out of or relating to the Services or this Agreement is limited to the greater of (a) the amounts you paid us for the Services in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) £50.
We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or loss of profits, data, or goodwill, except where prohibited by law.
14. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify Andy Judge against claims arising from your content, your misuse of the Services, or your breach of this Agreement (this indemnity does not apply where local consumer law prohibits it, for example certain German consumer rules).
15. Governing law and disputes
Subject to mandatory consumer protections where you live:
- This Agreement is governed by the laws of England and Wales.
- Courts of England and Wales have non-exclusive jurisdiction; consumers may also bring claims in their local courts where law requires.
We do not require mandatory consumer arbitration for UK/EEA users. If you are in the United States, either party may still pursue eligible small-claims matters in a court of competent jurisdiction.
16. Special terms for UK and EEA consumers
Where you are a consumer in the UK or EEA, the following apply to the extent required by law and override conflicting terms:
16.1 14-day cancellation (distance contracts)
For qualifying paid digital subscriptions purchased directly from us (not always for App Store purchases, which follow Apple/Google rules), you may have a 14-day right to cancel without giving a reason. Contact support@rindr.app. If you asked us to start the service during the cooling-off period, we may deduct a proportionate amount for use. Refunds are issued without undue delay using the original payment method where practicable.
16.2 Mandatory rights
Nothing in this Agreement limits mandatory consumer rights under UK or EEA law. Liability for death/personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud, is not excluded.
17. Notice and takedown (copyright)
If you believe content on the Services infringes your copyright, email legal@rindr.app with:
- your contact details and signature (physical or electronic);
- identification of the work and the allegedly infringing material (with enough detail to locate it);
- a good-faith statement that use is not authorised;
- a statement under penalty of perjury (where applicable) that you are authorised to act.
We may remove content and, for repeat infringers, terminate accounts.
18. Apple App Store terms
If you downloaded Rindr from the Apple App Store:
- this Agreement is between you and Rindr, not Apple;
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance/support;
- in case of warranty failure for a paid Apple download, you may contact Apple for a refund of the purchase price to the extent Apple’s terms require;
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these App Store-related terms.
19. Miscellaneous
- If a provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
- You may not assign this Agreement; we may assign it in connection with a business transfer.
- This Agreement (plus Privacy Policy and Community Guidelines) is the entire agreement on this subject.
- Notices may be given in-app, on the website, or by email.
