Terms of Service

Last updated: July 2026

1. The Plain-English Version

Use the app responsibly, do not break things, and understand that we help you find festivals. We do not control them, manage them, or guarantee perfect vibes.

2. Acceptance of These Terms

The Service is operated by Vagabond Ventures LLC, a Georgia limited liability company ("we", "us", or "the operator"). By using this application (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please stop using the Service. No hard feelings.

3. What the Service Does (and Does Not)

The Service helps users discover festivals and events near their location. We do not host the events, sell tickets, or control weather, lineups, parking, or porta-potty availability.

4. Accounts Are Optional

You can use the Service without creating an account. If you do create one, you provide a username and email address through a third-party sign-in provider (currently Google Sign-In). What we receive and store is described in our Privacy Policy.

  • You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service or create an account.
  • You are responsible for your account activity.
  • You agree not to impersonate anyone cooler than you.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for illegal purposes
  • Attempt to access systems you should not
  • Interfere with the normal operation of the Service

6. Your Content and Event Ownership

The Service lets account holders add festivals and their set-times (the app calls these "microevents") to the catalog, and claim ownership of an event. Content you submit is your responsibility:

  • You confirm it is accurate to the best of your knowledge and that you have the right to share it.
  • You will not submit content that is unlawful, infringing, misleading, or that impersonates an event or organizer you have no connection to.
  • By submitting content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to display, distribute, and adapt it within the Service (for example, formatting it or showing it on the map and schedule).

Claiming ownership of an event is subject to our review and approval. It lets you manage that event's details and does not grant any real-world rights to the festival itself. We may approve, decline, or revoke ownership, and we may edit, archive, or remove any content, including automatically archiving events once they have passed, to keep the catalog accurate.

7. Location Usage

Location access is used only to show nearby festivals. We do not store historical location trails or follow you around like a lost puppy.

8. Accuracy and Availability

Event information is provided for convenience. Festivals change, cancel, reschedule, and occasionally vanish into the void. Always verify details before making plans.

9. Advertising and Cookies

The Service is ad-supported. We display third-party ads, currently through Google AdSense, to keep the core service free to use.

Serving ads involves cookies and similar technologies. Specifically:

  • Google may set cookies on your device to choose region-relevant ads and to remember which ads have already been shown.
  • In jurisdictions that require it (the EU, UK, and similar privacy regimes), a consent banner appears before any personalized ads are served. You can accept, reject, or customize choices through that banner, and we honor whatever you select.
  • You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time via Google Ad Settings or by clearing cookies in your browser. Non-personalized ads may still appear.

Full detail on what data ads collect, how Google uses it, and your privacy rights lives in the Privacy Policy.

10. Suspension or Termination

We may suspend or terminate access if these terms are violated or if someone is actively trying to set the app on fire (figuratively).

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do our best, but perfection is not a real thing.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the Service.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms occasionally. Continued use means you accept the updated version. The date at the top will tell you when we last messed with it.

14. Intellectual Property

The Service itself, its name, logo, design, software, and the organized festival catalog we compile, belongs to the operator of the Service (Vagabond Ventures LLC) or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose. You may not copy, scrape, resell, or build a competing product from the Service or its catalog except as expressly allowed here or with our written permission. Trademarks, event names, and logos that belong to festivals or other third parties remain the property of their respective owners.

15. Third-Party Links and Content

Listings may link to festival websites, ticket sellers, maps, and other third-party resources. We do not operate or control those sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, products, or privacy practices. Following an external link is at your own risk, and the third party's own terms and privacy policy apply once you leave the Service.

16. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the operator of the Service and its team from any claims, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of content you submit, your misuse of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or of any law or third-party right.

17. Copyright Complaints

We respect intellectual-property rights and expect users to do the same. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to FesturahApp@gmail.com that includes: a description of the work, where the material appears on the Service, your contact information, and a good-faith statement that the use is not authorized. We will review it and, where appropriate, remove the material and may disable repeat infringers' accounts.

18. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

Informal Resolution First

Most problems can be sorted out quickly. Before starting a formal proceeding, you agree to email us at FesturahApp@gmail.com with a short description of the dispute and what you would like to happen, and to give us 30 days to try to resolve it. We will do the same before bringing any claim against you.

Agreement to Arbitrate

If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you and the operator agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except for the claims described in "Exceptions" below. Arbitration will be administered by a recognized arbitration provider, such as the American Arbitration Association (AAA), under its consumer arbitration rules then in effect. The arbitration will take place in Georgia, or at your option by phone, video, or written submission where the rules allow. The arbitrator may award the same individual relief a court could, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

Exceptions

Either you or the operator may instead:

  • Bring an individual claim in a Georgia small claims court, as long as it stays in that court and proceeds on an individual basis.
  • Ask a court for an injunction or similar relief to stop actual or threatened infringement or misuse of intellectual property.

Class-Action Waiver

You and the operator agree to bring claims against each other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator may not combine more than one person's claims and may not preside over any class or representative proceeding. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim alone will be separated and heard in court, and the rest will remain in arbitration.

Your Right to Opt Out

Arbitration is not forced on you if you would rather keep the option of court. You may reject the "Agreement to Arbitrate" and "Class-Action Waiver" sections by emailing FesturahApp@gmail.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name and that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out affects only those two sections. Everything else in these Terms, including the Georgia governing law above, still applies.

19. Severability and Entire Agreement

If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and the operator regarding the Service and supersede any prior understanding. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.

20. Contact

Questions, concerns, or polite existential dread can be sent through the contact details provided on the site, or by email to FesturahApp@gmail.com.
