Terms of Service and User License
Introduction
This document is intended to regulate the non-exclusive and non-transferable license agreement for the services provided by the software application called "Crubster" (Application), regardless of the channel (web or app) through which it is used. This document is also intended to govern service levels related to the Application and community guidelines.
1. Parties
Application Provider: Crubster S.r.l. (hereinafter referred to as “Crubster” or “Provider”)
User: The individual who has downloaded the application and uses it, with or without registration.
2. Object
2.1 Crubster provides the User with a cloud computing service for accessing and using the aforementioned Application, dedicated to creating a community and sharing content, opinions and thoughts in relation to a series of activities, experiences, services and products offered from third party suppliers on the market.
2.2 The Application allows access and consultation to registered and unregistered users. However, the user experience of unregistered users is limited to consultation activities without the possibility of creating and uploading content and without personalizing the experience on the Application.
2.3 The registration procedure allows for the creation of a User profile which is personal and non-transferable and which can be accessed through the credentials set during registration. The User undertakes not to create multiple profiles and not to create new profiles after the possible closure of the profile due to violation of these terms and/or community guidelines.
2.4 The minimum age for creating a User profile (and in any case for using the services offered by Crubster, even as an unregistered User) is 14 years old.

3. Service Provision
3.1 The User acknowledges that Crubster may provide communications relating to the status of the service exclusively through the Application or in any case through the crubster.com website. These communications must in any case be considered as a mere aid to the use of the Application.
3.2 In order to create a profile you need to have a valid email address. At the User's choice, registration can be made via social login (it should be noted that Crubster will in any case acquire the email data in order to verify if it has already been associated with a registration). Crubster assumes no responsibility deriving from the loss of availability of the email box to which the profile is associated and the activity carried out will in any case be attributable to the User until the unavailability and/or theft of the email access credentials is reported to Crubster. It will be the responsibility of the User to promptly notify Crubster of any change to the email address associated with the profile. Crubster will not be responsible for any malfunctions and/or impediments to accessing the portal due to the failure to update the contact details or their incorrect entry.
3.3 The User is also responsible for the credentials indicated for accessing the platform and undertakes not to disclose, transfer or allow the use of the access keys thus generated to third parties and to keep them with the utmost care and diligence, being the only subject authorized to access and the exclusive responsible for their custody and use.
3.4 The User accepts and recognizes, as of now, as his own any use and operation of the Application (connection, modification, service request, content insertion, data recording or other) that will be carried out with his/her access keys.
3.5 The User accepts that, as regards the attestation of all the operations carried out from his profile, only the logs on the Crubster servers shall prevail as proof.
3.6 Crubster reserves the right to verify on a sample basis and/or through keyword searches and/or with automated tools in its database that the use of the Application takes place in compliance with these terms and guidelines.
4. Duration
4.1 This document regulates the general conditions of the service offered by Crubster.
4.2 The User can request the cancellation of his profile from the Application by sending the request through the Application itself.

4.3 It is understood that following the deletion of the profile, Crubster will have no obligation to keep the data, information and content recorded by the User on the Application and will not be liable in any way for any damage, alteration or loss, even partial.
4.4 Within six months from the date of deletion of the profile, Crubster will definitively delete any data and information recorded and stored by the User. This period could be longer where there are contractual (e.g. to manage assistance activities in progress) or legal (e.g. as a tax justification) requirements.
4.5 Crubster reserves the right to keep the contents created by the User anonymously on the Application after the deletion of the profile.

16.2 The continuation of the use of the services offered by Crubster following the notification of the updated terms of service and/or Guidelines (which will be communicated to the User only through the Application together with the procedures for any unilateral withdrawal) entails acceptance of the updated terms of service and/or Guidelines.
Using the services provided by Crubster S.r.l you approve these Terms, the Community Guidelines and specifically approve the following clauses of the Terms: 2 (object), 3 (service provision), 5 (termination and withdrawal), 7 (Crubster obligations), 8 (service levels), 9 (intellectual property), 11 (termination of service), 12 (third party services), 13 (applicable law and jurisdiction).
Community Guidelines
Crubster is born as a community for sharing content and experiences related to a series of activities, experiences, services and products offered by third party suppliers on the market.
Our goal is to create a cohesive community around correct, truthful and quality content, thus providing a service to registered users of the Application as well as unregistered users.
Prohibited activities
Given the nature of the service, activities of a political or violent nature, hateful or sexual content, as well as illicit content or content that violates the copyrights of third parties, are prohibited.
Promotional and commercial marketing activities on the platform by Users are also prohibited, as are the sharing of content or the sending of communications that constitute spam or scams, as well as any activity aimed at circumventing our control measures and repression of prohibited activities ( for example registering with a new account after suspension).
Reviews
Activities involving evaluations of activities, services, products and experiences offered by third parties are the heart of our Application. The goal is that these reports are as correct, impartial, objective and truthful as possible, as well as focused on the quality of the content.
For this reason, reviews of reported facts which are not the result of direct knowledge of the author will not be admitted.
Except for some rare cases where this is relevant, direct comparisons and comparisons between suppliers should be avoided: the review must only concern the reviewed supplier.
The review must not contain irrelevant elements, religious, political or otherwise "partisan" evaluations and opinions, which do not meet objective criteria.
Crubster wants to be a welcoming place for every type of taste and ethical choice, therefore we cannot admit reviews that reward or censure a supplier just because his choices are or are not in line with our beliefs (for example we cannot admit a negative review of a vegan restaurant justified only by the preconception of the author about the vegan diet and by his beliefs in food ethics).
In order to maintain the quality of the service and avoid spam, links or contacts to external sites or people are not allowed in the reviews, the same, if inserted, will be obscured.
Finally, obviously, reviews by subjects who have a working, entrepreneurial, economic or family connection with the reviewed structure are not allowed.
Contents
Given that Crubster does not carry out any preventive checks on the contents published through the services offered (e.g. posts, comments, reviews), or imported by users from other services/platforms, and that it therefore declines any and all responsibility in this regard, Crubster however reserves the right to remove such contents as well as to suspend the user profile that generated/imported them in the following cases:
- illicit, false, misleading, obscene, scurrilous, allusive, discriminatory, invasive of privacy, invasive of intellectual property rights or otherwise objectionable content.
- content that could give rise to civil liability or violate the rights of other users or third parties;
- content that constitutes unsolicited advertising (eg the creation of profiles intended solely for sharing promotional posts of a certain company) and/or in any case content that represents a commercial use of the services offered by Crubster;
- content that includes confidential data of third parties (it should be noted that data such as name and surname, the image of a person, cannot be shared without having obtained consent before publishing the content);
- links to content external to the services offered by Crubster;
- other content which, in Crubster's sole discretion, is determined to be in violation of these terms of service and/or the Community Guidelines and/or otherwise deemed objectionable or is deemed to be a possible source of liability (of any kind) for Crubster and/ or its Users.
Suspension
The violation of these guidelines involves, at the sole discretion of Crubster, the suspension of the service for a fixed or indefinite period.
The User has the right to contact Crubster, through the appropriate tools and contacts made available within the Application and/or on the website www.crubster.com in order to submit a complaint about the suspension provision immediately. Complaints will be handled with the highest priority and within a reasonable timeframe by Crubster staff.
Reporting and removing prohibited content
Users have specific tools available within the Application in order to report content that they deem prohibited, illegal or in any case in violation of Crubster's terms of service and/or these Guidelines.
Crubster could proceed to the removal of such contents, where it deems the report founded or in any case as a result of random verification activities and/or through keyword searches and/or with automated tools of the contents present on the services offered.
The User has the right to contact Crubster, through the appropriate tools and contacts made available within the Application and/or on the website www.crubster.com in order to submit a complaint about the failure to remove the reported content ( so-called complaint of the reporting party) or about the removal of its content (so-called complaint of the reported). Complaints will be handled with the highest priority and within a reasonable timeframe by Crubster staff.
