User Agreement & Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of These Terms

By downloading, accessing, or using the RelationShips mobile application or website (the “App”), you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and that you accept and agree to be bound by this User Agreement and Terms of Service (this “Agreement”). If you do not agree, do not create an account or use the App.

2. The Service

RelationShips is a social-discovery platform that helps cruise passengers find and connect with other passengers on the same sailing based on shared interests and itinerary. The App is provided by Tate Enterprises, LLC (“Tate Enterprises,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The App is a tool for introductions only. We do not conduct criminal background checks, identity verification, or screening of any user, and we make no representations about the character, intentions, or behavior of any person you may meet through the App.

3. No Affiliation With Cruise Lines

Tate Enterprises and the App are independent of, and are not owned, operated, sponsored, endorsed by, or affiliated with, any cruise line, cruise ship, or their parent or subsidiary companies (collectively, “Cruise Lines”). All cruise line and ship names referenced in the App are the trademarks of their respective owners and are used here for identification purposes only.

4. Assumption of Risk

You understand and agree that meeting or interacting with other users in person — whether onboard a ship, in port, or otherwise — involves real and serious risks. These risks include, without limitation, physical, emotional, and financial harm, theft, assault, harassment, injury, and even death. You voluntarily and knowingly assume all such risks, both known and unknown, arising from your use of the App and from any interaction with other users, and you accept full responsibility for your decision to contact, meet, or engage with any person introduced through the App.

5. Release and Waiver of Claims

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby release, waive, and forever discharge Tate Enterprises, LLC, its members, managers, officers, employees, contractors, and agents, and each Cruise Line, its parent and subsidiary companies, officers, employees, contractors, and agents (collectively, the “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, demands, damages, losses, costs, liabilities, and causes of action of every kind — whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen — that arise out of or relate to: (a) your use of the App; (b) any interaction, communication, or meeting with another user; or (c) any event, injury, loss, or dispute occurring onboard a ship, in port, or anywhere else in connection with the App.

You acknowledge that this release covers claims against the Released Parties even if a claim arises from the negligence or fault of a Released Party, except to the extent caused by a Released Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. You waive the protections of any statute or principle that would otherwise limit the effect of a release of unknown claims.

6. Indemnification by You

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the App; (b) your violation of this Agreement; (c) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party; or (d) any dispute, injury, or incident between you and any other user of the App. This indemnification obligation survives the termination of your account.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TATE ENTERPRISES AND THE OTHER RELEASED PARTIES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT ANY MATCH OR INTRODUCTION WILL BE ACCURATE, SUITABLE, OR SAFE.

8. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL TATE ENTERPRISES, LLC OR ANY OTHER RELEASED PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP OR ANY INTERACTION WITH ANOTHER USER — WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER THEORY — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO US IN THE PAST SIX MONTHS, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

9. User Conduct

You agree to use the App lawfully and respectfully. You will not harass, threaten, stalk, or harm another user, provide false information, or use the App for any commercial or illegal purpose. We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, without notice, for any reason.

10. Disputes and Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to the App or this Agreement shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Florida, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. You waive any right to participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration.

11. Changes to This Agreement

We may update this Agreement from time to time. We will post the updated version in the App with a new “Last updated” date. Your continued use of the App after any change constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
