Welcome to xGluted. These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) form a legally binding agreement between you and xGluted Technologies LLC (“xGluted,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and govern your use of the xGluted mobile application, xgluted.com, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
Acceptance of these Terms
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
Service description
xGluted helps users discover breweries, bars, restaurants, stores, and beverage listings that may offer Gluten-Free, Gluten-Reduced, or other relevant options. The Service may also include map search, saved places, ratings, reviews, check-ins, profiles, Beer Passport features, and other discovery or community tools.
Features, availability, content, and supported locations may change over time. xGluted does not sell or deliver alcoholic beverages.
Beer information and verification
Listings may be provided by users, venues, producers, public sources, or other third parties. We do not guarantee that any listing is accurate, complete, current, available, or suitable for a particular person. “Gluten-Free” and “Gluten-Reduced” are different classifications and must not be treated as interchangeable.
The Service is not a substitute for professional medical advice. Consult a qualified healthcare professional about allergies, celiac disease, sensitivities, dietary restrictions, or other health concerns.
Eligibility and responsible use
You may use alcohol-related features only if you are legally permitted to access that content and, where applicable, purchase or consume alcohol in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for following local laws and using the Service responsibly. Never drink and drive. xGluted does not encourage excessive or unsafe alcohol consumption.
Accounts
Some features require an account. You agree to provide accurate information, keep your sign-in credentials secure, and promptly notify us of suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity under your account except to the extent caused by xGluted’s own actions.
Do not impersonate another person, create an account using information you are not authorized to use, or transfer account access in a way that compromises security or violates these Terms.
User content
The Service may let you submit ratings, reviews, check-ins, photos, profile information, venue or beer updates, and other material (“User Content”). You retain ownership of your User Content. You are responsible for it and represent that you have the rights needed to submit it.
By submitting User Content, you grant xGluted a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, distribute, and adapt that content only as reasonably necessary to operate, improve, and promote the Service. This license ends when the content is deleted from our systems, except where continued retention is reasonably necessary for legal, safety, backup, or Service-integrity purposes.
We may review, limit, or remove User Content that violates these Terms, applicable law, or the rights or safety of others. We are not required to monitor all User Content and do not endorse opinions posted by users.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Post content that is unlawful, fraudulent, harassing, defamatory, infringing, or intentionally misleading.
- Submit false venue, beer, ingredient, classification, availability, or check-in information.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or another user’s account.
- Interfere with security, operation, or availability of the Service.
- Scrape, harvest, copy, or commercially exploit Service data except as expressly authorized by us.
- Use automated systems to manipulate ratings, reviews, check-ins, rankings, or engagement.
- Use the Service for illegal activity or in a way that violates another person’s rights.
Subscriptions and app-store purchases
Some features may require a paid, automatically renewing subscription, including Beer Passport access. The price, billing period, trial terms (if any), and renewal details shown at purchase are part of your transaction.
App-store purchases are billed and administered by the app store through which you subscribe and are also subject to that store’s terms. Manage or cancel your subscription through your app-store account settings. Deleting the app or your xGluted account does not automatically cancel an active app-store subscription. Refund requests are handled under the applicable app store’s policies except where law requires otherwise.
Third-party places, products, and services
xGluted does not control and does not endorse or warrant the quality, safety, legality, accessibility, or availability of products or services offered by listed venues, breweries, producers, app stores, map providers, websites, or other third parties. Your dealings with third parties are between you and those parties and may be governed by separate terms.
Intellectual property
The Service, including its software, design, branding, logos, text, graphics, and other content supplied by xGluted, is owned by xGluted or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited right to use the Service under these Terms, no rights are granted to you. You may not reproduce, modify, distribute, sell, license, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from protected parts of the Service unless applicable law allows it or we give prior written permission.
Assumption of risk
You use the Service and rely on its information at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, xGluted is not responsible for adverse consequences—including allergic reactions or other health effects— related to products, venues, or information discovered through the Service. You must exercise your own judgment and verify information before acting on it.
Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate access, remove content, or take other reasonable action if we believe these Terms have been violated, an account presents a security or legal risk, or action is necessary to protect the Service or others. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will continue to apply.
Changes to the Service or these Terms
We may modify the Service and update these Terms from time to time. We will post the revised Terms and update the “Last updated” date. When changes are material, we may provide additional notice through the Service or another reasonable method. Your continued use after updated Terms become effective means you accept them.
Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the Service will be subject to the jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in Texas, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
