Effective Date: July 22, 2025

Welcome to NeighborTime.org (the "Site").

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("you," "your," or "User") and NeighborTime™️, ("NeighborTime™️," "we," "our," or "us").

By accessing or using the Site, mobile applications, email newsletters, or any other services we provide (collectively, the "Services"), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy (collectively, the "Agreement"), and any additional terms referenced herein.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Services.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to create an account or use the Services. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement and that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement.

2. Account Registration & Security

Account Creation. To access certain features, you may need to create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration, and to keep it updated.

Security. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at [email protected] of any unauthorized use or security breach.

Single Account. You may not create more than one account without our explicit permission.

3. Community Guidelines & Prohibited Conduct

Our mission is to foster kindness and neighborly support. Accordingly, you agree not to:

Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third‑party right.

Post or transmit content that is unlawful, harmful, harassing, discriminatory, libelous, obscene, or otherwise objectionable.

Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation.

Collect or harvest personal data of other Users without consent.

Use the Services for commercial solicitation, spamming, or pyramid schemes without written permission.

Upload viruses or malicious code, or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Services.

We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action (including suspension or termination) against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates these guidelines or any part of the Agreement.

4. User Content

Definition. "User Content" means any text, photos, videos, audio, data, or other materials you submit, post, or display on the Services.

Ownership. You retain all rights to your User Content, subject to the licenses granted herein.

License to NeighborTime™️.

By submitting User Content, you grant NeighborTime™️ a worldwide, non‑exclusive, royalty‑free, transferable, sublicensable license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, publish, display, distribute, and otherwise exploit such content in connection with operating, improving, and promoting the Services.

Representations. You represent and warrant that you own or have the necessary rights to your User Content, and that posting it does not infringe or violate any third‑party rights or laws.

Content Moderation. NeighborTime™️ may, but has no obligation to, monitor, review, or edit User Content. We may remove or disable access to any content at any time for any reason.

5. Matching & Volunteering Disclaimer

NeighborTime™️ provides a platform that connects individuals who wish to offer or receive help. We do not conduct background checks or endorse, certify, or guarantee the identity, suitability, reliability, or legality of any User or posted opportunity.

Interactions, meetings, acts of service, or exchanges arranged through the Services are solely between Users. You engage with other Users at your own risk. NeighborTime™️ disclaims all liability arising from or related to such interactions.

6. Payments & Donations (If Applicable)

From time to time, NeighborTime™️ may facilitate voluntary donations or membership fees. All payment processing is handled by third‑party providers (e.g., Stripe, PayPal). We do not store full payment card numbers. Transactions are subject to the provider’s terms and fees. All payments are non‑refundable unless expressly stated otherwise.

7. Third‑Party Links & Services

The Services may contain links to third‑party websites, apps, or services that are not owned or controlled by NeighborTime™️. We do not endorse or assume responsibility for any third‑party content or practices. Your interactions with third‑party sites are governed by their own terms and policies.

8. Intellectual Property

NeighborTime™️ Content. The Services, including the NeighborTime™️ name, logo, and all proprietary content, are protected by intellectual‑property laws. Except as expressly allowed, you may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works of NeighborTime™️ content.

DMCA Policy. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been infringed, please send a detailed notice to [email protected]. We will respond in accordance with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

9. Termination

You may end this Agreement at any time by deleting your account and discontinuing use of the Services. NeighborTime™️ may suspend or terminate your account, or the Services as a whole, at any time with or without notice and for any or no reason. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (e.g., User Content licenses, disclaimers, limitations of liability, arbitration) shall so survive.

10. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS‑IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, NeighborTime™️ DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON‑INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR‑FREE.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NeighborTime™️, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, AND SUPPLIERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED USD 100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US (IF ANY) IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations of liability, so the above may not apply to you.

12. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold NeighborTime™️ and its affiliates harmless from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, arising out of or in any way connected with (a) your use of the Services, (b) your User Content, or (c) your breach of this Agreement or violation of any law or third‑party right.

13. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

Governing Law. These Terms and any dispute will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict‑of‑law principles.

Informal Resolution. Before filing a claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting [email protected]. If unresolved after 30 days, either party may initiate arbitration.

Arbitration. All disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will take place in Wilmington, Delaware, unless the arbitrator requires a remote or different venue.

Class‑Action Waiver. You and NeighborTime™️ may bring claims only in your individual capacities. No class actions or representative proceedings are allowed.

30‑Day Opt‑Out. You may opt out of arbitration by sending a written notice to [email protected] within 30 days of accepting these Terms.

14. Modifications to the Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. When we do, we will post the updated version and revise the "Effective Date". If changes are material, we will provide notice (e.g., email or prominent posting) at least 30 days before they take effect. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

15. Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any supplemental policies, constitute the entire agreement between you and NeighborTime™️.

Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force.

Assignment. NeighborTime™️ may assign or transfer this Agreement without restriction. You may not assign your rights or obligations without our prior consent.

No Waiver. Failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision.
