Terms of Use
In short. Ridop is free and helps friends plan outings. You must be 16 or older. What you post is yours; respect others. Routes, times and distances are estimates: on the road, your judgment and the highway safety code are what count.
1. The service
Ridop is a mobile app operated by Louis Nault (“we”). It lets you create events (“ridops”), invite friends directly or through groups (“squads”), reply to invitations, and plan a route or itinerary together.
Ridop is a test version: features may change, be removed or not work properly, and the service may be interrupted. The app is free.
By creating an account, you accept these terms and our privacy policy.
2. Your account
- You must be 16 or older.
- An account belongs to one person. Use your real first name or a name your friends know you by; don't impersonate anyone.
- You are responsible for access to your email address and your phone: anyone with access to them can sign in to your account.
- You can delete your account at any time in Profile › Delete my account.
3. What you post
You keep all your rights to what you post (titles, descriptions, places, photos). You only grant us permission to store it, adapt it (for example, resize a photo) and show it to the people you invite, to make the app work. This permission ends when the content or your account is deleted, subject to the backups described in the privacy policy.
You must have the right to post what you post: not someone else's photo without their permission, nor protected third-party content.
4. What is not allowed
- Harassing, threatening, intimidating or discriminating against anyone.
- Posting content that is illegal, hateful, violent, sexually explicit or that exposes another person's private life.
- Organizing illegal activities, including street racing.
- Sending unwanted invitations in bulk or using the app commercially without our agreement.
- Trying to access other people's accounts or data, bypassing the app's limits, scraping it, or disrupting it.
If you see abuse, write to confidentialite@ridop.app. We may remove content, or suspend or delete an account that does not respect these terms.
5. On the road: be careful
- Routes, arrival times and distances are computed by Google and are estimates that do not account for traffic. A road may be closed, dangerous or not allowed for your vehicle.
- Do not use the app while driving. Follow the highway safety code and local instructions.
- Each participant decides for themselves whether to join an outing and is responsible for their own driving, vehicle and gear. Ridop does not organize outings: the organizer and participants do.
6. Liability
We do our best to make Ridop work well and protect your data. To the extent permitted by law, the app is provided as is, and we are not liable for damages resulting from a service interruption, an error in a route or estimate, or what happens during an outing. Nothing in these terms limits the rights the law guarantees you, including under Québec's Consumer Protection Act.
7. Changes and termination
We may change these terms; if the change is important, we will let you know in the app or by email before it applies. If you disagree, you can delete your account. We may also end the service; we will then give you at least 30 days' notice, except in an emergency.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Québec and the laws of Canada that apply there. The French version prevails.
