Terms of Service

Last updated: June 2026

Welcome to Rooted. These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the Rooted platform. Please read them carefully before using the App.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Rooted ("the App", "we", "us", or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not use the App. These terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the App.

2. User Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Rooted. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you are at least 13 years of age and that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. If you are under 18, you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian.

3. User Accounts

To access certain features, you must create an account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to safeguard your account information.

4. User Content and Responsibilities

You retain ownership of any content you post, upload, or share on Rooted ("User Content"). By posting content, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, display, and distribute your content within the App. You are solely responsible for your User Content and any consequences that arise from sharing it. You represent that you have all necessary rights to post your content and that it does not violate any third-party rights or applicable laws.

5. Marketplace Rules

Rooted provides a marketplace for users to list agricultural goods, equipment, and services. All listings must be accurate, truthful, and comply with applicable laws. You must not create misleading listings, sell counterfeit or illegal items, or engage in deceptive pricing. Transactions between buyers and sellers are conducted at your own risk. Rooted is not a party to any transaction and does not guarantee the quality, safety, or legality of items listed.

6. Job Board Rules

The job board allows employers to post agricultural job opportunities and allows users to apply. Job postings must be truthful, must not discriminate unlawfully, and must comply with all employment laws. Rooted does not verify employers or job postings and is not responsible for the accuracy of job listings or the outcome of any application. Users should exercise caution and conduct their own due diligence.

7. Payments and Boosted Listings

Rooted offers premium "Boost" features for marketplace listings and job posts through Stripe. Boost purchases are processed securely by Stripe. By purchasing a Boost, you agree to pay the stated price in the listed currency. Boosts are non-refundable once the boost has been delivered (i.e., the listing or job has been marked as premium). Rooted reserves the right to change pricing at any time with notice.

8. Prohibited Activities

You may not use Rooted to: harass, abuse, or harm others; send spam or unsolicited messages; commit fraud or misrepresent your identity; engage in illegal activities; post misleading, false, or defamatory content; distribute malware or harmful code; interfere with the App's operation; or violate any applicable law or regulation.

9. Content Moderation

Rooted reserves the right, but not the obligation, to monitor, review, and remove any content that violates these Terms or that we deem inappropriate, offensive, or harmful. We may use automated tools and human review to enforce these standards. We are not responsible for any failure or delay in removing such content.

10. Account Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately. All provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.

11. Intellectual Property

Rooted and its original content, features, and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of Rooted and its licensors. The App is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. You may not reproduce, modify, distribute, or create derivative works of any part of the App without our express written permission.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Rooted and its affiliates, officers, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, data loss, or personal injury, arising out of or in connection with your use of the App.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

Rooted is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that any defects will be corrected. Your use of the App is at your sole risk.

14. Changes to the Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. We will provide notice of material changes by updating the date at the top of these Terms and, where appropriate, through the App. Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
