BREWHOOD TERMS OF SERVICE

Effective Date: September 25, 2026 Last Updated: September 25, 2026

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. THESE TERMS CONTAIN A BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROVISION AND A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDINGS (SECTION 15). YOU HAVE A 60-DAY RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION (SECTION 15.5). THESE TERMS ALSO LIMIT BREWHOOD'S LIABILITY (SECTION 17), REQUIRE YOU TO RELEASE CERTAIN CLAIMS (SECTION 18), AND LIMIT THE TIME WITHIN WHICH CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT (SECTION 16.2). IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS

These Terms of Service, together with any other policies or guidelines that Brewhood expressly incorporates by reference (collectively, the "Terms"), form a binding legal contract between you and Brewhood LLC, a California limited liability company ("Brewhood," "we," "us," or "our"), and govern your access to and use of the Brewhood mobile application, website located at brewhood.app, and any related services, features, content, and functionality offered by Brewhood (collectively, the "Service").

3. THE SERVICE; WHAT BREWHOOD IS AND IS NOT

3.1 What the Service is.

Brewhood operates an informational discovery platform that helps users locate and learn about Vendors in their community. The Service may display Vendor location, hours of operation, menus, events, photographs, ratings, reviews, and related Content sourced from Vendors, users, public records, and third-party data providers. The Service also offers the optional Engagement Features described in Section 9.

3.2 What the Service is not.

Brewhood is not, and does not act as: (a) a retailer, seller, distributor, importer, or licensee of alcoholic beverages; (b) a delivery service, courier, or fulfillment provider for any goods or services; (c) an agent, broker, employee, partner, joint venturer, or representative of any Vendor; (d) a verifier of any Vendor's licensure, food-safety compliance, alcoholic-beverage compliance, allergen information, dietary or religious-observance claims, sanitation, insurance, or any other regulatory or operational status; (e) a guarantor or warrantor of the accuracy, completeness, currency, or quality of any Vendor Content, User Content, or third-party Content; or (f) a reviewer, certifier, or endorser of any Vendor or any product or service offered by any Vendor.

3.3 No alcohol sales; no dram-shop or social-host role.

Brewhood does not sell, ship, deliver, fulfill, or facilitate the sale or delivery of alcoholic beverages. Any transaction involving alcohol or any other goods or services between you and a Vendor is solely between you and that Vendor and is governed by the Vendor's own terms, policies, and Applicable Law (including alcoholic-beverage-control licensing requirements). Brewhood does not furnish, serve, sell, or provide alcohol to any person, and these Terms do not create any duty under any dram-shop, social-host, or analogous statute or common-law doctrine.

3.4 No professional advice.

Content on the Service is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute medical, nutritional, allergen, dietary (including religious dietary), legal, financial, or other professional advice. You should consult appropriate professionals and confirm any information that materially affects your health, safety, religious observance, or finances directly with the Vendor or another authoritative source.

3.5 No endorsement.

The appearance of a Vendor, product, or service on the Service does not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or warranty by Brewhood. Where Content on the Service includes ratings, reviews, or rankings, such Content reflects the views of users or third parties and not Brewhood. Titles, rankings, and leaderboards generated by Engagement Features reflect user activity recorded by the Service and are not Brewhood's endorsement of any Vendor or user.

4. ELIGIBILITY AND ACCOUNTS

4.1 Age.

You must be at least 18 years of age to create an Account or use any account-restricted feature of the Service. By accepting these Terms, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age.

4.2 Capacity and authority.

You represent and warrant that (a) you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract; (b) you are not barred from using the Service under the laws of the United States, the State of California, or any other applicable jurisdiction; and (c) any information you provide to Brewhood is true, accurate, current, and complete.

4.3 Account security.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your Account, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to (a) use a strong, unique password, (b) not share your credentials with any other person, (c) notify Brewhood promptly at the address in Section 21 of any actual or suspected unauthorized use of your Account or any other security breach, and (d) cooperate with Brewhood in investigating any such incident.

4.4 One account per person.

You may not maintain more than one Account for personal use. You may not (a) create an Account using false, misleading, or another person's information; (b) create an Account on behalf of any person without that person's express prior authorization; or (c) access or use any other person's Account without that person's express prior authorization.

4.5 Visitors.

If you access publicly available portions of the Service without creating an Account, you have not accepted these Terms under Section 1, and Section 15 does not apply to you. Brewhood grants you a limited, revocable license to view those portions of the Service, conditioned on your compliance with Sections 5.1 and 6, and Brewhood may block or restrict access by anyone who does not comply.

5. LICENSE TO USE THE SERVICE; PAID FEATURES

5.1 License.

Subject to your continuing compliance with these Terms, Brewhood grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your own non-commercial purposes. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved by Brewhood and its licensors.

5.2 Paid features.

If Brewhood offers any paid feature, subscription, or other product for a fee, that offering is subject to additional terms that Brewhood will present before purchase, including any pricing, billing, renewal, cancellation, and refund terms and any disclosures, consents, and cancellation mechanisms required by Applicable Law (including California Business and Professions Code §§ 17600–17606 for any automatic-renewal or continuous-service offer). Those additional terms supplement these Terms and control over these Terms as to the paid offering only.

6. ACCEPTABLE USE

You agree not to do, attempt to do, or assist or permit any third party to do, any of the following (each, a "Prohibited Use"). Each Prohibited Use constitutes a Material Breach of these Terms.

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any Applicable Law, including any alcoholic-beverage-control, food-safety, consumer-protection, advertising, anti-discrimination, anti-spam, or privacy law.
  • Encourage, facilitate, normalize, promote, or glorify (a) underage drinking, (b) drinking and driving, (c) over-consumption of alcohol, (d) drinking games or other practices that pose a material risk of harm, or (e) any other conduct that is unlawful or that poses a material risk of harm to any person.
  • Coordinate, advertise, broker, or otherwise promote the unlicensed sale, distribution, or off-license transfer of alcohol or any other product or service requiring a license that you or the relevant counterparty does not hold.

  • Impersonate any person, business, or entity, including by (a) misrepresenting yourself as affiliated with, employed by, authorized by, or endorsed by any Vendor, (b) misrepresenting your credentials, certifications, or qualifications, or (c) creating a profile in another person's name without that person's express prior authorization.
  • Post Content that is false, misleading, deceptive, or fraudulent, including false reviews, fake endorsements, materially inaccurate statements about a Vendor's allergens or food-safety practices, or Content that violates the Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 C.F.R. Part 255), the Federal Trade Commission's Rule on the Use of Consumer Reviews and Testimonials (16 C.F.R. Part 465), or any analogous Applicable Law.
  • Falsify, spoof, simulate, or manipulate your device's location or any Tap In, including by using location-spoofing software, emulators, or another person's device, or by attempting to Tap In at a location where you are not physically present.
  • Earn, acquire, or accumulate Caps, Collectibles, or titles through automation, multiple Accounts, collusion, exploitation of errors in the Service, or any other means Brewhood has not authorized; or sell, buy, trade, transfer, or offer to transfer any Account, Caps, Collectible, or title for money or anything of value.
  • Use any information about another person obtained through the Service (including visit history, Crew information, leaderboards, titles, or Vendor Dashboard information) to locate, track, follow, monitor, harass, or contact that person outside the Service, or disclose that information to any third party, without that person's consent.
  • Post sexually explicit Content, Content depicting graphic violence, Content depicting or promoting self-harm, or Content that is otherwise obscene under Applicable Law.
  • Send unsolicited commercial messages or other forms of spam; conduct any commercial solicitation; or use the Service to develop, market, or distribute any competing product or service.
  • Infringe, misappropriate, or violate any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, right of publicity, right of privacy, or other intellectual-property or proprietary right of any person.
  • Scrape, crawl, harvest, index (other than via standards-compliant search-engine indexing of publicly accessible pages), bulk-download, or otherwise extract data from the Service by automated or manual means, except as expressly authorized by Brewhood in writing.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, attempt to derive source code from, or create derivative works of, any portion of the Service, except to the extent this prohibition is expressly limited by Applicable Law.
  • Use any robot, spider, crawler, scraper, or other automated means to access the Service for any purpose; bypass any rate limit, throttle, or other measure intended to manage the volume of access to the Service; or use any false header information or other identifier-spoofing technique.
  • Probe, scan, test, or attempt to circumvent any security feature of the Service; access or attempt to access any portion of the Service for which you have not been granted access; or interfere with the operation of the Service or any infrastructure on which it depends.
  • Upload, post, or transmit any virus, worm, trojan, ransomware, time bomb, spyware, or other malicious code; or take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the Service or its infrastructure.
  • Attempt to bypass the age requirement in Section 4.1, including by providing false date-of-birth information, by using another person's Account, or by directing or assisting any person under 18 to use the Service.
  • Create or distribute Content that is designed to market alcohol to persons under 21 (or the legal drinking age in the applicable jurisdiction) or that has substantial appeal primarily to persons under 21.
  • Use the Service in any other manner that, in Brewhood's reasonable good-faith judgment, materially harms users, Vendors, third parties, or the integrity, security, or reputation of the Service.

Nothing in these Terms restricts your ability to post honest reviews or other truthful statements about the Service, any Vendor, or Brewhood, and no provision of these Terms may be construed as a restriction of the kind prohibited by 15 U.S.C. § 45b or California Civil Code § 1670.8.

Brewhood reserves the right (but does not undertake any obligation) to monitor, review, remove, restrict access to, or modify any Content, and to suspend or terminate any Account, at any time, for any reason or no reason, including for any Prohibited Use. Where Brewhood reasonably believes that Content or conduct poses a threat to safety, security, or legal compliance, Brewhood may take action without prior notice.

7. USER CONTENT

7.1 Ownership.

As between you and Brewhood, you retain all right, title, and interest in and to the User Content you submit, subject to the licenses you grant in these Terms. Brewhood does not claim ownership of your User Content.

7.2 License to Brewhood.

You grant to Brewhood a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid, worldwide, sublicensable (solely as set forth in Section 7.3) license to host, store, reproduce, display, perform, distribute, transmit, index, cache, reformat, resize, encode, translate, and otherwise use your User Content solely for the following purposes:

  • To operate, maintain, improve, and provide the Service to you and to other users.
  • To make technical copies (including reformatting, resizing, format conversion, search indexing, caching, and content-delivery copies) necessary to deliver the Service across devices, platforms, and networks.
  • To feature your User Content in Brewhood's own promotional materials for the Service itself, including in-Service marketing, app-store listings, social-media accounts owned or controlled by Brewhood, and press materials about Brewhood, provided that such use describes or promotes the Service and not any third-party product or service.
  • To permit the specific Vendor that is the subject of your User Content to display, link to, embed, or pin that User Content on the Vendor's own profile page within the Service (but not elsewhere), so long as the Vendor does so within the Service and in accordance with these Terms.

The third and fourth purposes above apply only to User Content that you have made publicly visible on the Service. They do not apply to Tap Ins, visit history, location data, Content visible only to you or your Crew, or any other User Content that is not publicly visible.

7.3 License limits.

The license in Section 7.2 does not include, and Brewhood will not exercise or sublicense, any right to: (a) sell your User Content; (b) license your User Content to any external stock-photo service, syndication network, news outlet, or other third-party platform outside the Service; (c) use your User Content in any advertising or promotion for any product or service other than the Service itself; (d) sublicense your User Content to a Vendor for use outside the Service (for example, in the Vendor's own external advertising or off-platform social media); or (e) modify your User Content in any way that materially changes its meaning, other than format and length adjustments customary for display.

7.4 Duration; deletion.

The license in Section 7.2 continues for so long as your User Content remains on the Service. Upon deletion of your User Content or termination of your Account, the license terminates with respect to prospective uses by Brewhood, except (a) for technical copies retained in routine backup, archival, or disaster-recovery systems for a commercially reasonable period and not used to repopulate the Service, (b) for User Content that has been incorporated by other users, and (c) as set forth in Section 7.5.

7.5 Pseudonymous persistence.

To preserve the integrity of Vendor pages for other users, Brewhood may retain, in pseudonymous or de-identified form, User Content that you have posted publicly (for example, a Vendor review may remain on the Vendor's page attributed to "Brewhood User" rather than to your name). You may request removal of specific persisted User Content by contacting Brewhood at the address in Section 21; Brewhood will evaluate each such request in good faith but reserves discretion where retention is necessary for the integrity of public Vendor pages. This Section 7.5 does not apply to Tap Ins or visit history, which are deleted when your Account is deleted, as described in the Privacy Policy.

7.6 Moral rights.

To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, you waive, or agree not to assert, any moral rights, droit moral, or analogous rights you may have in your User Content as against Brewhood and its sublicensees acting within the scope of the licenses granted in this Section 7. Where such rights cannot be waived under Applicable Law, you grant Brewhood and its sublicensees the broadest possible consent to use your User Content within the scope of those licenses.

7.7 Your representations.

You represent and warrant, with respect to each item of User Content you submit, that:

  • You are the sole author or have all rights, licenses, consents, releases, and permissions necessary to grant the licenses in this Section 7.
  • Your User Content does not, and Brewhood's exercise of the rights granted in this Section 7 will not, infringe, misappropriate, or violate the intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any person, or violate any Applicable Law.
  • Your User Content is accurate to the best of your personal knowledge, particularly with respect to factual claims in reviews.
  • Your User Content complies with Section 6 of these Terms.
  • If your User Content reflects a material connection between you and any Vendor (for example, you are an employee, owner, agent, or compensated promoter of the Vendor), you have disclosed that connection clearly and conspicuously in your User Content, as required by 16 C.F.R. Part 255.

7.8 No obligation to monitor.

Brewhood has no obligation to pre-screen, monitor, edit, or remove User Content. Brewhood does not adopt, ratify, or endorse any User Content and, except where Brewhood has materially contributed to the development of unlawful Content, will not be deemed the publisher or speaker of any User Content for purposes of any Claim.

7.9 Feedback.

If you send Brewhood any suggestion, idea, enhancement request, or other feedback about the Service, you grant Brewhood a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable license to use, modify, and exploit that feedback for any purpose, without attribution, compensation, or any obligation of confidentiality. Feedback is not your confidential information, and Brewhood may develop, acquire, or offer products and services that are similar to or competitive with any feedback you provide.

8. VENDOR PROFILES AND BUSINESS CLAIMS

8.1 Vendor representations.

If you claim or operate a Vendor profile, you represent and warrant that (a) you are the owner, an authorized officer, or an authorized representative of the Vendor and have full authority to bind the Vendor to these Terms; (b) all information you provide about the Vendor is true, accurate, current, and complete; (c) the Vendor holds all licenses, permits, and authorizations required by Applicable Law to operate its business, including any alcoholic-beverage and food-service licenses; (d) the Vendor will at all times comply with Applicable Law, including with respect to food safety, allergen disclosure, alcoholic-beverage sales and service, advertising, and consumer protection; and (e) any cuisine or dietary tag you select for the Vendor is accurate. A dietary tag indicates that the Vendor offers qualifying options, not that its entire menu qualifies. The Vendor is solely responsible for the accuracy of any dietary or religious-observance claim (for example, Halal or Kosher), and Brewhood displays such tags as provided.

8.2 Verification and revocation.

Brewhood may, but is not obligated to, request documentation to verify Vendor identity, authority, or licensure. Brewhood may remove, suspend, or revoke any Vendor profile, with or without notice, where Brewhood reasonably believes the profile is fraudulent, unauthorized, inaccurate, or in breach of these Terms or Applicable Law. Brewhood may also correct or remove any Vendor category, cuisine tag, or dietary tag that it reasonably believes is inaccurate.

8.3 Vendor Content license.

By submitting Vendor Content, you grant Brewhood the licenses set forth in Section 7.2, and the Vendor Content is subject to the obligations and representations in Sections 7.3, 7.6, and 7.7, in each case as if Vendor Content were User Content.

8.4 Vendor Marks and Collectibles.

By claiming or operating a Vendor profile, or by uploading any logo, artwork, or other Vendor Content, you grant Brewhood, on behalf of the Vendor, a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, reproduce, adapt, combine with Brewhood templates, display, and distribute within the Service the Vendor's names, logos, trademarks, and other branding (collectively, "Vendor Marks") and Vendor Content in order to create, offer, and display Collectibles associated with the Vendor. This includes a starter Collectible that Brewhood may generate automatically from the Vendor's name or logo and any Collectible editions the Vendor creates using artwork it uploads. The Vendor retains ownership of the Vendor Marks. Brewhood owns the Collectible templates and designs, excluding the Vendor Marks and Vendor Content they incorporate. You represent and warrant that the Vendor has the right to grant this license and that Brewhood's use of the Vendor Marks and Vendor Content as permitted by these Terms will not infringe or violate any third party's rights. Brewhood may limit the number and frequency of Vendor-created Collectible editions.

8.5 Requests to stop using Vendor Marks.

An authorized Vendor representative may ask Brewhood in writing, at the address in Section 21, to stop using Vendor Marks in Collectibles. After receiving an authorized request, Brewhood will, within a commercially reasonable time, stop offering new Collectibles that display the Vendor Marks and may replace the Vendor Marks in any automatically generated Collectible with a design that shows only the Vendor's name. The license in Section 8.4 continues with respect to Collectibles that users acquired before the request, which may remain in those users' collections, unless Brewhood determines that removal or modification is required by Applicable Law.

8.6 Benefits for The Regular.

Any discount or other benefit that a Vendor offers to the holder of The Regular is offered solely by the Vendor. The Vendor is solely responsible for determining, honoring, changing, and ending any such benefit and for ensuring that it complies with Applicable Law, including alcoholic-beverage laws. Brewhood does not provide, fund, or guarantee any Vendor benefit and is not a party to any transaction in which a benefit is redeemed.

8.7 Vendor Dashboard information.

The Vendor Dashboard may show the display name of the user who holds The Regular at the Vendor's business and a short list of users next in line for that title. The Vendor may use this information only within the Service to recognize and understand engagement with its business. The Vendor may not copy, export, or disclose it to any third party; use it to contact, market to, profile, or discriminate against any user; or combine it with other information to identify or locate any user. The Vendor must comply with Applicable Law, including privacy law, in its use of any information obtained through the Service.

8.8 Vendors that leave the Service.

If a Vendor profile is removed or a Vendor stops participating in the Service, Brewhood will stop offering that Vendor's Collectibles for acquisition. Collectibles that users already hold remain as described in Section 9.4(e), and Sections 8.4 and 8.5 continue to apply to them.

9. TAP INS, CAPS, COLLECTIBLES, THE REGULAR, AND CREW

9.1 Optional features; changes.

Engagement Features are optional. Tap Ins require access to your device's location, and Brewhood processes that information as described in the Privacy Policy. Brewhood may change, suspend, or discontinue any Engagement Feature at any time, including how Caps are earned or spent, which Collectibles are offered, and the rules for The Regular and leaderboards. Changes to how Caps are earned or spent apply prospectively.

9.2 Tap Ins.

You may Tap In only when you are physically present at the Vendor's location. Brewhood verifies Tap Ins using your device's location and does not guarantee that verification will succeed at every location or at every time. Brewhood may reject, void, or remove any Tap In, and reverse any Caps, title, or other benefit resulting from it, if Brewhood reasonably believes the Tap In is inaccurate, fraudulent, or in breach of these Terms. A Tap In does not create any relationship between you and the Vendor.

9.3 Caps.

Caps are an in-Service currency that Brewhood makes available to you under a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license, solely for use within the Service. No purchase or payment is required to earn Caps. Caps (a) cannot be purchased with money; (b) have no cash or other monetary value; (c) cannot be sold, transferred, gifted, traded, or exchanged with any other user or person; (d) cannot be redeemed or exchanged for money, credit, or any goods or services outside the Service; and (e) are not your property and are not a deposit, stored value, or payment instrument of any kind. Your Caps balance is determined by Brewhood's records, and Brewhood may correct any balance that results from error, fraud, or breach of these Terms.

9.4 Collectibles.

(a) License, not ownership. Collectibles are licensed, not sold. Brewhood grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to hold and display each Collectible you acquire within the Service. You acquire no ownership or other property interest in any Collectible.

(b) Acquisition. Collectibles may be acquired only with Caps, and a Vendor's Collectibles may be acquired only if you have visited that Vendor, as verified by a Tap In.

(c) All acquisitions are final. Brewhood does not provide refunds, reversals, returns, or exchanges of Caps or Collectibles, including for Collectibles acquired by mistake. Brewhood may reverse any acquisition that results from error, fraud, or breach of these Terms.

(d) Changes after acquisition. Brewhood may modify any Collectible after you acquire it, including its artwork, name, description, and in-Service attributes, for example to correct errors, respond to a Vendor's request, or comply with Applicable Law or address a third-party rights claim. A modification does not entitle you to any refund or compensation.

(e) Withdrawal from availability. Brewhood may stop offering any Collectible for acquisition at any time, including when a Vendor leaves the Service. A Collectible withdrawn from availability remains in the collections of users who already hold it, except where Brewhood determines that removal or modification is required by Applicable Law or to address a third-party rights claim.

(f) In-Service benefits. A Collectible may provide limited in-Service benefits, such as bonus Caps when used with a Tap In. These benefits have no value outside the Service, and Brewhood may change them.

9.5 The Regular.

The Regular is a title that Brewhood awards, at each Vendor location, to the eligible user who visits most often under rules that Brewhood sets and may change. Brewhood may recalculate, reassign, or remove the title at any time. Users who have turned on Full Privacy are not eligible; if you turn on Full Privacy while holding the title, the title will be vacated and awarded to the next eligible user. While you hold the title, your display name is shown publicly on the Vendor's page and to the Vendor. If you are among the users next in line for the title, your display name and ranking may be shown to the Vendor, as described in the Privacy Policy. The title cannot be transferred and has no cash value. Any discount or other benefit associated with the title is offered solely by the Vendor, as described in Section 8.6, and any Claim relating to a Vendor benefit is a Claim described in Section 18.1.

9.6 Crew and leaderboards.

You are responsible for deciding whom to add to your Crew. Depending on your settings, your Crew may see your visit history, plans you share, and your leaderboard results, as described in the Privacy Policy. Leaderboards are provided for entertainment, do not award prizes, and reflect Brewhood's records.

9.7 Effect of Account deletion or termination.

If your Account is deleted or terminated for any reason, your Caps, Collectibles, and titles are forfeited without compensation, and your Tap In history is deleted as described in the Privacy Policy.

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF BREWHOOD

10.1 Ownership.

The Service, including all software, source code, object code, design, text, graphics, layout, look-and-feel, audio, video, data compilations, Collectible templates and designs (excluding any Vendor Marks, Vendor Content, or User Content they incorporate), and the selection, coordination, and arrangement of the foregoing, and all Brewhood Marks, is owned by Brewhood or its licensors and is protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, trade-dress, trade-secret, patent, and other intellectual-property laws.

10.2 No implied licenses.

Except for the limited licenses expressly granted in Sections 5 and 9, you do not acquire any right, title, or interest in or to the Service or any Brewhood Marks. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

10.3 Trademarks.

You may not use any Brewhood Mark without Brewhood's prior written authorization, except for nominative-fair-use references that (a) accurately identify Brewhood or the Service, (b) do not suggest sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation by Brewhood, and (c) comply with any then-current Brewhood brand guidelines made publicly available.

11. COPYRIGHT; DMCA NOTICE AND COUNTER-NOTICE

Brewhood respects the intellectual-property rights of others and will respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement consistent with the DMCA.

11.1 Designated Agent.

Brewhood has designated the following individual to receive notifications of claimed copyright infringement under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(2):

  • Address: c/o Brewhood LLC, 2108 N St., Ste. N, Sacramento, CA 95816
  • Email: dmca@brewhood.app

11.2 Notice of alleged infringement.

If you believe that any User Content infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to enforce, you may submit a written notice to the Designated Agent that includes:

  • A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works at a single online site are covered by a single notice, a representative list of such works.
  • Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of the infringing activity, with information reasonably sufficient to permit Brewhood to locate it (a URL is helpful).
  • Information reasonably sufficient to permit Brewhood to contact you, including an address, telephone number, and email address.
  • A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are the owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

11.3 Counter-notice.

If you receive notice that User Content you submitted has been removed in response to a DMCA notice and you have a good-faith belief that the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, you may submit a counter-notice to the Designated Agent, containing the elements required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).

11.4 Repeat infringers.

Brewhood will, in appropriate circumstances and in its sole discretion, terminate the Accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers.

11.5 Misrepresentations.

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that material was removed by mistake or misidentification, may be liable for damages.

12. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT AND LINKS

The Service may display Vendor Content, User Content, or other third-party Content, and may include links to external websites, applications, or resources operated by third parties. Brewhood does not control, endorse, warrant, or assume responsibility for any such third-party Content or external resources, or for any product, service, or transaction obtained from any third party. Your interactions with any third party are solely between you and that third party and are governed by that third party's terms, policies, and Applicable Law.

13. SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION

13.1 Termination by you.

You may terminate your Account at any time through the Account-deletion function within the Service or by contacting Brewhood at the address in Section 21. Upon termination, your right to access the Service immediately ceases, Section 9.7 applies, and Brewhood will process your Account data as described in the Privacy Policy.

13.2 Suspension or termination by Brewhood.

Brewhood may suspend or terminate your Account, or your access to all or any portion of the Service, at any time, with or without prior notice, if Brewhood reasonably determines that (a) you have committed a Material Breach of these Terms; (b) your use of the Service poses a material risk to the safety, security, integrity, or lawful operation of the Service or to any user, Vendor, or third party; (c) suspension or termination is required by Applicable Law or by an order of any court or regulator with competent jurisdiction; or (d) Brewhood discontinues the Service or any material feature of it.

Brewhood will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of termination, except where (i) Brewhood reasonably believes that providing notice would compromise an investigation of suspected fraud, abuse, or illegality, (ii) advance notice would create a risk to safety or to the security of the Service, or (iii) Applicable Law or legal process prohibits notice.

13.3 Effect of termination; survival.

Upon termination, your right to access and use the Service immediately ceases. Sections 2, 3.2 through 3.5, 5.2, 7.3 through 7.9, 8, 9.3, 9.4, 9.7, 10, 11.4, 11.5, 12, 13.3, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 21, and any other provision that by its nature is intended to survive termination, will survive any termination of these Terms or of your Account.

14. DISCLAIMERS

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS, AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH IT ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE. BREWHOOD AND ITS LICENSORS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR USAGE OF TRADE.

Without limiting the foregoing, Brewhood makes no warranty or representation that:

  • The Service will be uninterrupted, available, secure, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components.
  • Any Content available through the Service (including Vendor Content, User Content, hours, menus, pricing, allergen information, dietary tags, event information, or licensure status) is accurate, complete, current, or reliable.
  • Any Vendor is licensed, insured, qualified, compliant with Applicable Law, or suitable for any particular purpose.
  • Any User Content submitted by other users is accurate, truthful, or non-infringing.
  • Any Tap In will be verified, any Engagement Feature will remain available, or any Vendor will offer or honor a benefit associated with The Regular.
  • Any defects in the Service will be corrected, or that the Service will meet your requirements or expectations.

You are solely responsible for verifying any information that materially affects your decisions, including allergen information, dietary and religious-observance claims, hours, pricing, and Vendor licensure, directly with the Vendor or another authoritative source before relying on it.

Brewhood is an interactive computer service within the meaning of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, 47 U.S.C. § 230, and nothing in these Terms is intended to waive, limit, or affect any protection available to Brewhood under that section or any analogous Applicable Law.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. To the extent any such exclusion is held to be unenforceable, the exclusions in this Section 14 apply to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER

READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 15.4, IT REQUIRES YOU AND BREWHOOD TO RESOLVE DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION ON A MUTUAL BASIS AND WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU MAY OPT OUT OF THIS SECTION 15 WITHIN 60 DAYS AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 15.5.

15.1 Scope; mutuality; FAA and § 1670.15.

This Section 15 governs Covered Claims and applies equally to you and to Brewhood. Brewhood agrees to be bound by this Section 15 on the same terms as you. This Section 15 is governed by the FAA, and the parties intend that the FAA, and not the procedural provisions of the California Arbitration Act, governs the arbitration procedures under this Section 15. Consistent with California Civil Code § 1670.15, this Section 15 and Section 16 are limited to Claims arising out of or relating to the use, payment, or provision of the Service. Any provision that would extend further is, to that extent only, void and unenforceable.

15.2 Delegation.

The arbitrator, and not any court or agency, has the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, scope, or formation of this Section 15, except: (a) disputes about the validity, applicability, or enforceability of the class-action waiver in Section 15.3, which a court of competent jurisdiction will decide; (b) any matter that, under the EFAA or other non-preempted Applicable Law, must be decided by a court rather than by an arbitrator; and (c) the public-injunctive-relief carve-out in Section 15.4, which a court will decide.

15.3 Class-action waiver.

YOU AND BREWHOOD AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING COVERED CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, MASS, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING; THE MASS-ARBITRATION PROTOCOL IN SECTION 15.10 GOVERNS THE PROCEDURAL ADMINISTRATION OF MULTIPLE INDIVIDUAL DEMANDS BUT DOES NOT AUTHORIZE CONSOLIDATED SUBSTANTIVE ADJUDICATION. IF A COURT OR ARBITRATOR DETERMINES THAT THIS SECTION 15.3 IS UNENFORCEABLE AS TO ANY COVERED CLAIM, THAT CLAIM MUST BE BROUGHT IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION (AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 16) AND IS SEVERED FROM THIS SECTION 15; ALL OTHER COVERED CLAIMS REMAIN SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION.

15.4 Carve-outs.

This Section 15 does not require arbitration of, and does not apply to:

  • Any Claim that, at the election of the party alleging it, is covered by the EFAA (claims relating to a sexual-assault dispute or a sexual-harassment dispute, as those terms are defined in 9 U.S.C. § 401).
  • Any Claim brought in small-claims court, provided the Claim remains in that court and is brought on an individual basis.
  • Any Claim by either party for temporary, preliminary, or permanent injunctive relief to protect intellectual-property rights, trade secrets, or to enforce Section 6, pending arbitration of any related damages Claim.
  • Any claim for public injunctive relief (within the meaning of McGill v. Citibank, N.A. (2017) 2 Cal.5th 945), that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the general public. Such claims may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction under Section 16.
  • Any Claim that, under Applicable Law (including California Civil Code § 1670.15), cannot lawfully be subjected to a predispute arbitration agreement.

15.5 60-day opt-out.

You may opt out of this Section 15 by sending written notice to legal@brewhood.app within 60 days after the date you first accept these Terms. Your notice must include (a) your full name, (b) the email address associated with your Account, and (c) a clear statement that you opt out of arbitration. A valid and timely opt-out is effective only as to this Section 15; it does not affect any other provision of these Terms. Brewhood will not retaliate against you for opting out, and your decision to opt out (or not) will not affect your access to or use of the Service.

15.6 Informal resolution.

Before commencing arbitration, the party with a Covered Claim must send a written notice of dispute to the other party, describing the Claim and the relief sought. Notices to Brewhood must be sent to legal@brewhood.app. Notices to you will be sent to the email address associated with your Account. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the Claim informally for 30 days after delivery of the notice. If the Claim is not resolved within that period, either party may initiate arbitration. Any applicable statute of limitations, and any contractual or arbitration-administrator filing deadline, is tolled during the informal-resolution period.

15.7 Arbitration procedure.

Arbitration will be administered by the AAA under the AAA Rules. The AAA Rules are available at adr.org. If AAA is unavailable or declines to administer, the parties will select another nationally recognized administrator with comparable consumer-arbitration procedures, and if they cannot agree, a court of competent jurisdiction will appoint one. Arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator selected under the AAA Rules.

Hearings will be held, at your election: (a) in the county where you reside; (b) in San Francisco County, California; or (c) by telephone, videoconference, or written submissions only. Brewhood waives any objection to your chosen venue or format. The arbitrator's award is final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

15.8 Costs.

Brewhood will pay all arbitration filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in excess of the amount you would have paid as a filing fee to commence the same Claim in the Superior Court of California for the county where you reside. If the AAA Rules require Brewhood to bear additional fees, Brewhood will bear those fees. Each party is otherwise responsible for its own attorneys' fees and costs, except that the arbitrator may award attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party to the extent authorized by Applicable Law or the AAA Rules. Nothing in this Section 15.8 limits any right you may have to recover attorneys' fees or costs under any statute that authorizes such recovery.

15.9 Remedies; discovery.

The arbitrator may award any remedy that a court of competent jurisdiction could award on the Covered Claim presented, including monetary damages, statutory damages and penalties, declaratory and injunctive relief, restitution, and attorneys' fees and costs where authorized by Applicable Law, in each case only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide that relief. The arbitrator has the authority to award provisional, preliminary, and permanent injunctive relief as needed. Discovery will be as provided in the AAA Rules and, in any event, sufficient to allow each party a fair opportunity to vindicate any statutory or common-law right asserted in the arbitration. Nothing in this Section 15.9 limits any right of either party to seek provisional injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction under Section 15.4.

15.10 Mass-arbitration protocol.

If a Mass Filing occurs, the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules will apply to all such demands. The parties agree that (a) the AAA's process-administrator and global mediator procedures will be used; (b) bellwether arbitrations may be conducted as provided in the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, with results non-binding on other demands except as the parties may later agree; (c) each party is entitled to seek to consolidate scheduling, discovery, and procedural rulings for efficiency; and (d) all substantive determinations on each individual demand remain individual and bilateral. This Section 15.10 applies equally and reciprocally to demands filed by Brewhood and demands filed against Brewhood.

16. GOVERNING LAW; VENUE; TIME TO BRING CLAIMS

16.1 Governing law and venue.

These Terms and any Covered Claim are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, except that the FAA governs Section 15. For any Covered Claim that, under Section 15, is not subject to arbitration, you and Brewhood submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, and waive any objection to venue or forum non conveniens.

16.2 Time to bring claims.

Except where Applicable Law prohibits a shorter period, any Covered Claim must be commenced, whether in arbitration or in court, within one year after the Claim accrues. A Covered Claim not commenced within that period is permanently barred.

17. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND SUBJECT TO SECTION 17.3, THE BREWHOOD PARTIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, DATA, OR USE (INCLUDING ANY LOSS OF CAPS, COLLECTIBLES, OR TITLES), ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE BREWHOOD PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

17.1 Aggregate cap.

SUBJECT TO SECTION 17.3, THE BREWHOOD PARTIES' TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO BREWHOOD IN THE TWELVE MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (B) TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS (US$200).

17.2 Essential purpose.

The limitations in this Section 17 apply even if any limited remedy provided in these Terms is found to fail of its essential purpose.

17.3 Carve-outs.

Nothing in this Section 17 limits or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded under Applicable Law. Without limiting the foregoing, the limitations and exclusions in this Section 17 do not apply to (a) liability caused by a Brewhood Party's gross negligence, (b) a Brewhood Party's fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, (c) a Brewhood Party's willful injury to the person or property of another (within the meaning of California Civil Code § 1668; see New England Country Foods, LLC v. VanLaw Food Products, Inc. (2025) 17 Cal.5th 703), (d) a Brewhood Party's violation of any statute or regulation enacted to protect public safety, where Applicable Law prohibits exculpation, or (e) any other liability that cannot lawfully be limited under Applicable Law.

17.4 Allocation.

You acknowledge that the limitations in this Section 17 are an essential part of the bargain between you and Brewhood, that they reflect a reasonable allocation of risk between the parties, and that Brewhood would not provide the Service on these economic terms without them.

17.5 Some jurisdictions.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of certain damages. To the extent any such limitation or exclusion is held to be unenforceable, the limitations in this Section 17 apply to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

18. RELEASE AND LIMITED SECTION 1542 WAIVER

18.1 Release of Vendor-related claims.

To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, you release the Brewhood Parties from any Claim arising out of or relating to (a) any dispute between you and any Vendor or other user of the Service, (b) any product, service, transaction, conduct, or omission of any Vendor, including any benefit a Vendor offers or fails to honor in connection with The Regular, and (c) any reliance you place on Vendor Content, User Content, or other third-party Content available through the Service. This release does not apply to Claims based on a Brewhood Party's own gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or violation of Applicable Law.

18.2 Limited Civil Code § 1542 waiver.

If and only to the extent that the release in Section 18.1 would otherwise operate as a general release, you expressly waive, with respect to the Claims released in Section 18.1 and only those Claims, the protections of California Civil Code § 1542, which provides:

"A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY."

You acknowledge that you have read and understood § 1542 and intend to waive its protections only with respect to the Claims described in Section 18.1, including unknown Claims of the kind described in Section 18.1 that may exist as of the date you accept these Terms. The waiver in this Section 18.2 does not extend to, and you do not waive, any Claim against a Brewhood Party for the Brewhood Party's own conduct.

19. INDEMNIFICATION

To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Brewhood Parties from and against any third-party Claim, and any related liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), to the extent arising out of or relating to (a) your User Content; (b) your access to or use of the Service in breach of these Terms; (c) your violation of Applicable Law in connection with the Service; (d) your violation of any third party's rights; or (e) if you claim or operate a Vendor profile, the Vendor's products, services, Vendor Content, Vendor Marks, cuisine or dietary tags, use of Vendor Dashboard information, or any benefit the Vendor offers in connection with The Regular. Brewhood will (i) promptly notify you of any Claim for which it seeks indemnification, (ii) provide you with reasonable cooperation in the defense of the Claim at your expense, and (iii) permit you to control the defense and settlement of the Claim, provided that you may not settle any Claim in a manner that imposes any obligation on, or admits any liability of, a Brewhood Party without Brewhood's prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld).

20. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

Brewhood may modify these Terms from time to time. If Brewhood makes a material modification, Brewhood will provide reasonable advance notice by (a) posting the updated Terms within the Service, (b) updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of these Terms, and (c) sending notice by email to the address associated with your Account or by in-Service notice. A modification is effective on the date stated in the notice, which will be no earlier than 30 days after Brewhood provides notice, except where a shorter period is necessary to comply with Applicable Law or to address a security or fraud concern.

Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of the modification constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not accept the modified Terms, your sole remedy is to stop using the Service and to delete your Account. No modification to Section 15 will apply to a Covered Claim of which Brewhood had written notice as of the effective date of the modification. Changes that Brewhood makes to Engagement Features under Section 9.1 are not modifications of these Terms unless they change the text of these Terms.

21. CONTACT AND NOTICES

For legal notices, including notices under Sections 15.6 (dispute notice) and 15.5 (arbitration opt-out) and Vendor requests under Section 8.5, use:

Notices to you will be sent to the email address associated with your Account or, where appropriate, by in-Service notice. Notices are deemed given on the date sent if by email, or three business days after deposit in the mail if by certified or registered mail.

22. MISCELLANEOUS

22.1 Entire agreement.

These Terms, together with any policies expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Brewhood with respect to the Service and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, communications, and understandings, whether written or oral, on that subject. No statement or representation by Brewhood or any Brewhood Party that is not contained in these Terms forms part of these Terms.

22.2 Severability.

If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable while preserving its intent, or, if modification is not possible, will be severed from these Terms, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. The class-action waiver in Section 15.3 is not severable from the remainder of Section 15 and is subject to the specific severability rule in Section 15.3.

22.3 No waiver.

No failure or delay by Brewhood in exercising any right under these Terms operates as a waiver of that right. A waiver of any provision of these Terms is effective only if it is in writing and signed by Brewhood, and is effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given.

22.4 Assignment.

You may not assign, transfer, or delegate any right or obligation under these Terms, in whole or in part, without Brewhood's prior written consent, and any attempt to do so without consent is void. Brewhood may assign, transfer, or delegate any right or obligation under these Terms without your consent, including in connection with any merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, change of control, or operation of law.

22.5 Force majeure.

Brewhood will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance under these Terms to the extent caused by any event beyond Brewhood's reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, fire, flood, earthquake, pandemic, epidemic, war, terrorism, riot, civil unrest, governmental action, labor disturbance, internet or telecommunications outage, or failure of any third-party service or infrastructure.

22.6 No third-party beneficiaries.

Except for the Brewhood Parties (each of which is an intended third-party beneficiary of Sections 3, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 17, 18, and 19) and as provided in Section 22.11, there are no third-party beneficiaries of these Terms.

22.7 Relationship of the parties.

These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency relationship between you and Brewhood. Neither party has the authority to bind the other.

22.8 Construction.

Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. "Including" and its variants are illustrative, not limiting (each such word is read as "including, without limitation"). References to a statute, regulation, or rule include amendments and successor provisions.

22.9 Electronic communications.

You consent to receive communications from Brewhood in electronic form. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that Brewhood provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

22.10 Export control.

You may not use, export, re-export, or transfer the Service except as authorized by United States law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which you obtained the Service, and any other Applicable Law.

22.11 App marketplaces.

If you obtain the Brewhood application through the Apple App Store, the Google Play store, or another application marketplace, your use is also subject to that marketplace's applicable terms. These Terms are between you and Brewhood only, and not with any marketplace operator. Brewhood, and not the marketplace operator, is solely responsible for the Service and for any maintenance, support, warranty, product-liability, intellectual-property, or legal-compliance Claim relating to it, and the marketplace operator has no obligation to furnish maintenance or support for the Service. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a United States Government embargo or designated as a terrorist-supporting country, and that you are not listed on any United States Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple Inc. and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms with respect to any application obtained through the Apple App Store and may enforce these Terms against you.

22.12 Government users.

If you are a federal, state, or local government entity, your use of the Service constitutes acknowledgment that the Service is "commercial computer software" as that term is used in 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, and that the rights provided to you under these Terms are the only rights provided with respect to the Service.
