Last Updated: [Insert Date]

Welcome to [Insert Brand Name]. We offer a social matchmaking platform connecting individuals in Hong Kong through curated group experiences, including group dinners and local social/sports activities such as group runs and hobby gatherings ("Events").

​

The Platform is owned and published by xxx.

​

1. General Principles & Scope of Service

• Contractual Scope: These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") form the sole binding agreement between [Insert Brand Name] ("we," "us," or "our") and any user ("Client," "you," or "your") governing access to and use of our platform and services.

​

• Services Provided: We connect members and coordinate arrangements at designated venues for social experiences (e.g., dinners, drinks, outdoor runs). We act solely as an event organizer and matchmaking platform—not as a venue owner, food provider, or athletic supervisor.

​

• Acceptance & Amendments: By registering an account or participating in any Event, you agree to these Terms. We reserve the right to amend these Terms at any time; material updates will be notified via email at least 14 days prior to taking effect.

​

• No Guarantees: We do not guarantee specific attendee compatibility, age profiles, gender ratios, or entirely unique participant pairings at any given Event.

 

2. Exclusions of Fees & Expenses

• Membership Fee Coverage: The membership subscription fee strictly covers access to our matching platform, event coordination, and group organization.

​

• Third-Party Expenses: The membership fee excludes all food, beverages, dining bills, venue entrance charges, transportation, personal equipment (e.g., running gear), or incidental costs.

​

• Direct Payment: You are solely and individually responsible for settling your own food and drink bills directly with third-party vendors or venues.

​

• Budget Preferences: You can select a budget preference when booking: $ for low, $$for medium, and$$$ for high. These symbols represent purely indicative price ranges. Actual prices charged by the Venue may change over time and depend on your consumption on site. Budget preferences are accordingly indicative; users are encouraged to review Venue prices directly to ensure they match their expectations.

 

3. Venues, Dietary Restrictions, and Allergies

• Venue Modifications: We display event locations on the platform before each Event, but reserve the right to change the Venue at any time to ensure safety, proper capacity, or event quality.

​

• Dietary Matching: While we endeavor to assign you to a Venue matching your dietary choices (e.g., vegetarian, meat, or fish), specific options cannot be guaranteed. Dietary selections are directional guidelines rather than guaranteed accommodations.

​

• Allergens & Health Risks: Because we do not prepare or supply food and beverages directly, we cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment or prevent cross-contamination. You are strictly responsible for confirming with Venue staff that menu items are safe for your specific allergies or restrictions before consuming them.

​

• Menu Suitability: You are encouraged to check the Venue's menu beforehand. If you find the menu unsuitable, please reach out to us and we will attempt to offer an alternative location or reschedule your slot, though changes cannot be guaranteed.

 

4. Hong Kong Severe Weather Protocol

• Pre-Event Weather Cancellations: If the Hong Kong Observatory issues or announces an intention to issue a Red Rainstorm Warning, Black Rainstorm Warning, Severe Thunderstorm Warning, or Typhoon Signal No. 8 or higher on the day of a scheduled Event prior to its start time, the scheduled Event will be automatically suspended or canceled for safety.

​

• Ongoing Outdoor Events: If an outdoor Event (such as a group run or outdoor gathering) is already in progress when a Thunderstorm Warning, Red/Black Rainstorm Warning, or Typhoon Signal No. 8 or higher is raised, the Event will be immediately stopped and participants must disperse or seek immediate shelter.

​

• Ongoing Indoor Events: Indoor Events (such as group dinners, café meetups, or indoor gatherings) that are already in progress may continue at the discretion of the Venue management and attendees, provided it is safe to remain indoors. Participants choose to stay or leave entirely at their own discretion and risk.

​

• Liability Exclusions for Weather: We are not liable for any disruption, cancellation, personal injury, travel expenses, or venue cancellation charges arising from severe weather conditions.

 

5. Community Features & Private Messaging

• Profile Visibility: By using the platform, you acknowledge that your basic profile, bookings, and activity may be visible to other members to facilitate matching and connection.

• Blocking and Reporting: You may block or report any user via the platform or by contacting customer support. We will make reasonable efforts to ensure you are not matched for the same Event as a user you have blocked.

• Private Messaging: We may provide access to a private messaging feature allowing you to communicate with participants from Events you have attended. Use of messaging must strictly adhere to the conduct standards in Section 7.

 

6. Assumption of Risk and Release of Liability

• 6.1 Scope of Platform Responsibility: We act strictly as an event organizer and matchmaking platform. We do not own, manage, prepare, cook, or serve food or beverages at any Event venues, nor do we supervise athletic or outdoor activities directly on-site.

​

• 6.2 Venue Operations & Food Safety: Partner venues are independent third-party businesses solely responsible for their own food preparation, hygiene standards, allergen management, premises safety, and service quality. While we exercise reasonable care in selecting event locations, we are not liable for venue negligence, food quality issues, allergic reactions, food-borne illnesses, slip-and-fall incidents, or personal injuries occurring on venue premises.

• 6.3 Voluntary Assumption of Risk: Joining any Event—whether dining out or participating in physical activities like group runs—is strictly voluntary. You voluntarily assume all associated risks, including food poisoning, allergic reactions, athletic injuries, personal property loss or theft, and traffic incidents occurring before, during, or after an Event.

• 6.4 Interpersonal Disputes & Background Checks: We facilitate social introductions but do not conduct criminal background checks or control individual user conduct. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other participants. We disclaim all liability for any loss, damage, harm, or distress resulting from the acts, omissions, or conduct of any third party or matched participant.

• 6.5 Total Incident Exclusion: To the maximum extent permitted under Hong Kong law (including Cap. 71 Control of Exemption Clauses Ordinance), [Insert Brand Name], its officers, and employees shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your participation in any Event, use of the Platform, or reliance on Platform content.

Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period, and each paid subscription period will be fully honored.

Failing to attend a confirmed event ("no-show") or late cancellations disrupt event planning.
