Welcome to Dately!

Thank you for using our products and services (“Services”). The Services are provided by Wiva Inc..

By using our Services, you are agreeing to these terms. Please read them carefully.

This agreement was written in English (US). To the extent any translated version of this agreement conflicts with the English version, the English version controls.

Using our Services

You must follow any policies made available to you within the Services.

Don’t misuse our Services. For example, don’t interfere with our Services or try to access them using a method other than the interface and the instructions that we provide. You may use our Services only as permitted by law, including applicable export and re-export control laws and regulations. We may suspend or stop providing our Services to you if you do not comply with our terms or policies or if we are investigating suspected misconduct.

Using our Services does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in our Services or the content you access. You may not use content from our Services unless you obtain permission from its owner or are otherwise permitted by law. These terms do not grant you the right to use any branding or logos used in our Services. Don’t remove, obscure, or alter any legal notices displayed in or along with our Services.

Our Services display some content that is not Dately’s. This content is the sole responsibility of the entity that makes it available. We may review content to determine whether it is illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display content that we reasonably believe violates our policies or the law. But that does not necessarily mean that we review content, so please don’t assume that we do

In connection with your use of the Services, we may send you service announcements, administrative messages, and other information.

Our Services are available on mobile devices. Do not use such Services in a way that distracts you and prevents you from obeying traffic or safety laws.

Unless licensed by us in a written agreement, you agree not to use or provide software or services that interact or interoperate with Dately, e.g. for downloading, uploading, creating/accessing/using an account, posting, flagging, emailing, searching, or mobile use. You agree not to copy/collect Dately content via robots, spiders, scripts, scrapers, crawlers, or any automated or manual equivalent (e.g., by hand).

You agree not to post content that is prohibited by any of Dately's policies or rules referenced as ("Prohibited Content"). You agree not to abuse Dately's flagging or reporting processes. You agree not to collect Dately user information or interfere with Dately.

You agree (1) not to bypass said moderation, (2) we are not liable for moderating or not moderating, and (3) nothing we say or do waives our right to moderate, or not.

Avoiding Scams

Deal locally, face-to-face —follow this one rule and avoid 99% of scam attempts.

Do not extend payment to anyone you have not met in person.

Beware offers involving shipping - deal with locals you can meet in person.

Never wire funds (e.g. Western Union) - anyone who asks you to is a scammer.

Don't accept cashier/certified checks or money orders - banks cash fakes, then hold you responsible.

Transactions are between users only, no third party provides a "guarantee".

Never give out financial info (bank account, social security, paypal account, etc).

Do not rent or purchase sight-unseen—that amazing "deal" may not exist.

Refuse background/credit checks until you have met landlord/employer in person.

If you are defrauded by someone you met in person, contact your local police department.

Your Content in our Services

Our Service allows you to upload, submit, store, send or receive content. You retain ownership of any intellectual property rights that you hold in that content. In short, what belongs to you stays yours.

When you upload, submit, store, send or receive content to or through our Services, you give Dately (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Services, and to develop new ones. This license continues even if you stop using our Services (for example, for a business listing you have added to Dately). Make sure you have the necessary rights to grant us this license for any content that you submit to our Services.

Our automated systems analyze your content (including messages) to provide you personally relevant product features, such as customized search results, tailored advertising, and spam and malware detection. This analysis occurs as the content is sent, received, and when it is stored.

If you have a Dately Account, we may display your Profile name, Profile photo, and actions you take on Dately or on third-party applications connected to your Dately Account (such as reviews you write and comments you post) in our Services, including displaying in ads and other commercial contexts.

About Software in our Services

Dately gives you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable and non-exclusive license to use the software provided to you by Dately as part of the Services.

It will hold harmless and indemnify Dately and its affiliates, officers, agents, and employees from any claim, suit or action arising from or related to the use of the Services or violation of these terms, including any liability or expense arising from claims, losses, damages, suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys’ fees.
