By creating an IOQ account, accessing the app, or using any IOQ features, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use IOQ.
When these Terms are updated, IOQ may require you to review and accept the latest version before continuing to use the platform.
Your acceptance applies to your account and to each enabled IOQ feature, module, workflow, or integration you choose to access or use, including any related actions, records, approvals, uploads, communications, payments, exports, AI-assisted flows, and real-world coordination that happen through the platform.
If IOQ introduces a new feature, or materially changes how an existing feature works, your continued use of that feature is also subject to these Terms and any in-product disclosures, notices, or feature-specific conditions shown at the time of use. Where required by law or product policy, IOQ may ask you to provide fresh consent before you continue.
IOQ is a platform that helps users connect and coordinate meetups and interactions. IOQ may include features such as chat, meet-up planning, location-related features, business listings/marketplace-style posts, and safety-related tooling.
IOQ is not:
You must be legally able to form a contract where you live. If you use IOQ on behalf of a business or organization, you confirm you have authority to bind that entity.
You agree to:
To protect account security and reduce abuse, IOQ may enforce active device/session limits. Where enabled, your account can be limited to a maximum number of concurrently active devices (for example, two).
If you attempt to sign in from an additional device after the active-device limit is reached, IOQ may require explicit confirmation before continuing and may sign out/revoke the oldest active device session.
You are responsible for activity under your account unless prohibited by law.
You may not use IOQ to:
IOQ can remove content or restrict accounts that violate these rules.
You may be able to post content (text, images, listings, messages, etc.). You keep ownership of your content, but you grant IOQ a worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, store, reproduce, display, and distribute it only as needed to operate and improve the service.
You confirm you have the rights to the content you post and that it doesn’t violate anyone else’s rights.
By using a feature, you confirm that you intend to use that feature for its proper purpose and that you accept the rules, risks, and responsibilities attached to that feature under these Terms.
If you do not intend to accept the rules for a feature, you must not use that feature.
Real-world interactions carry risk. You agree:
IOQ (I Own Quarters / IOQS) is a facilitation and exposure platform only. Once users approve each other, exchange details, or agree to meet, all participation, communication, movement, and outcomes are at users’ own risk and responsibility.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, IOQ is not responsible for incidents, losses, disputes, injuries, damages, misconduct, or criminal acts arising from user-arranged interactions, whether those interactions originated through waves, profile access approvals, networking requests, itinerary sharing, or any related feature.
IOQ may provide networking request flows (for example Network Radar) that include typed or voice intent, location/radius setup, in-person venue suggestions, virtual session setup, activation/staffing requests, and assist or errand-style local help requests.
Where community events are linked to staffing or activation needs, IOQ may connect community event records with networking activation requests, applicant interest flows, approvals, dispatch status, and related engagement records so the workflow remains traceable across modules.
For staffing/outfit review workflows, hosts may request outfit images, review them, react to them, and applicants may upload or caption those images inside the product. These actions are workflow signals only and do not constitute endorsement, certification, or guarantee of suitability.
For assist/errand requests, any item purchase, reimbursement, delivery, handoff, collection, or task completion arrangement is strictly between users unless IOQ explicitly states otherwise in-product.
IOQ may require approval before profile details are visible between users. Where this flow is enabled:
IOQ may provide itinerary-planning flows connected to nearby places, favorites, and planning prompts.
IOQ may issue referral or invite codes/links tied to your account.
IOQ may provide voice recording/transcription and AI-assisted text enhancement or personalization for networking intent and promoter workflows. Outputs are assistive only and are not legal, compliance, or professional advice.
You are responsible for reviewing and approving final submitted content. IOQ may apply usage limits and quotas to maintain product fairness and system stability.
Where AI analysis or transcription credits are shown in-product, credit deduction rules are controlled by current product logic and may require successful completion before usage is consumed.
If IOQ provides “emergency buttons,” calling features, or sharing location:
If IOQ allows business promotions or user-to-user listings:
Promotion creation may be tier-based and can include monthly publish limits, analysis/transcription credit limits, and media input constraints (including number of images, audio length, per-file size, and request-size ceilings).
Uploads that exceed configured limits (for example file size, request size, unsupported format, or processing timeouts) may be rejected and may not proceed to analysis or publish flows.
Business linking in IOQ may be offered as Linked (Unverified). This means the user asserts association with a place, but IOQ does not represent ownership authority to third parties unless and until official verification is completed.
IOQ may block any Google write-back action (for example profile edits, posting, or external business management operations) until official verification requirements are met.
IOQ may, from time to time, grant temporary promotional or preload access to features that are ordinarily associated with paid plans. Where this happens, feature visibility markers, upgrade prompts, labels, or plan references may still appear in-product for signaling or future billing context, even if enforcement is temporarily relaxed.
Temporary promotional access does not guarantee permanent free use of those features, and IOQ may restore, adjust, or reapply plan-based enforcement for future periods.
If IOQ offers paid plans:
Free plans may include limited monthly promotional posts and fixed monthly analysis credits. Upgraded plans may increase those allowances according to the active tier configuration shown in-product at the time of use.
Additional quota controls may apply to other actions (for example place search, saves/favorites, networking actions, or similar feature counters) and can be enforced with in-app upgrade prompts when limits are reached.
For recurring billing where supported, provider server notifications (for example payment notification events) are the authoritative source for subscription state transitions. Redirect/return pages are informational UX only and do not by themselves grant paid access.
Where itinerary collaboration/planning limits are enabled for free tiers, IOQ may allow view/share-only access after free creation credits are exhausted until an eligible paid plan is activated.
IOQ may provide report export tools (for example PDF exports) for Explorer and Promoter accounts. Exported reports are generated from available in-product data and are provided for operational reference only.
Some features may rely on third-party services (for example maps, place suggestions, social link destinations, payment gateways, AI providers, virtual meeting links, and app-security/session tooling). IOQ is not responsible for outages, policy changes, or actions of third-party services.
Share links and deep links (for example WhatsApp, map/navigation actions, call actions, or external profile links) are executed by third-party apps and may render differently by client/device.
Where you connect an external account, grant permissions, or trigger a third-party dependent action, you authorize IOQ to send and receive the minimum necessary data needed to operate that feature, subject to these Terms and the Privacy Policy.
Third-party providers may independently apply their own eligibility rules, quotas, geographic restrictions, moderation controls, pricing, account holds, or API limitations. IOQ may suspend, limit, or remove a dependent feature if required by provider terms, technical constraints, abuse-prevention controls, or legal obligations.
IOQ’s software, branding, designs, and other IP are owned by IOQ or its licensors. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works except as allowed by law or written permission.
IOQ may change, suspend, or discontinue features at any time. We try to keep IOQ available, but uptime is not guaranteed.
Features may be added, removed, gated, tested, renamed, rate-limited, or made available only to selected accounts, territories, business contexts, or tiers. Screens, flows, labels, and prompts visible in the product do not by themselves guarantee that a feature is active, available, or included in your current entitlement.
You may stop using IOQ at any time. IOQ may suspend or terminate accounts for violations, security reasons, legal compliance, or risk management.
IOQ may also pause or restrict specific modules, integrations, exports, business actions, or billing-linked features without terminating the full account where narrower action is reasonably necessary for safety, fraud prevention, provider compliance, payment risk, or operational integrity.
IOQ is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent allowed by law, IOQ disclaims warranties of merchantability, fitness for purpose, and non-infringement.
To the fullest extent allowed by law, IOQ is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or loss of profits/data, arising from your use of IOQ.
Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the minimum allowed by law.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa, unless mandatory local law says otherwise.
