constitute a fully binding agreement between you, and JCA Technologies LLC (“JCA”, “Us”,
“Our”, or “We”) who is the sole and exclusive proprietor of any and all rights in and to the
Service. We strongly recommend that you carefully read these TOU. The Service is provided

Policy (“Privacy Policy”). Before accessing or using our Products and/or Services, please

PROVISION, AS THIS TOU CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR
LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES, AND OBLIGATIONS, INCLUDING VARIOUS LIMITATIONS
AND EXCLUSIONS ON DAMAGES YOU MAY CLAIM AGAINST US AND INDEMNIFICATION
OBLIGATIONS YOU MAY OWE TO US. THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY
ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES PROVISION THAT, EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY
APPLICABLE LAWS, REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS

AND TO THE PRIVACY POLICY.
ABOUT THE SERVICE
The Service is a social navigation app that allows drivers to navigate to their desired destination.
It allows drivers and users to assemble and update maps to reflect road conditions and
occurrences on them, such as traffic congestions, road accidents, police roadblocks, etc. The
Service is provided mainly through the App.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The following important information of these TOU are highlighted for your convenience only.
These points are not meant to replace the full TOU and do not supersede or override any other
TOU or conditions provided by JCA.
• Road information takes precedence. The navigation information provided by the Service is
not intended to replace the information available on the road, such as travel directions, time-
based restrictions, lane restrictions, road blockades, traffic signs, traffic lights, police
instructions, and so on. You should always be aware of, and abide by, all posted speed limit
and all other applicable traffic signs (this is because things like road construction and web-
based information may not always being current and/or accurate).
• Always drive cautiously and adhere to road conditions and traffic laws. It is strictly prohibited
to send traffic updates (like updates on road accidents or traffic congestion) or engage in any
non-verbal interaction with the Service or use the Service in a non-verbal manner for any
purpose other than navigation while driving. Traffic updates or non-verbal reports you want to
submit to the Service can only be sent after you have stopped your vehicle in a lawful location.
Alternatively, such updates can be sent by a passenger other than the driver, provided it does
not interfere with the safe driving course and does not distract the driver’s attention from the
road.
• The navigation information provided by the Service is not continuous. It originates from other
users of the Service and is inherently fluctuating, potentially inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated.
JCA does not provide any warranties (implied or expressed) of any kind whatsoever regarding
the credibility or reliability of this navigation information.
• Low Speed Vehicles (“LSV”) typically do not meet the safety features of standard vehicles
(e.g., airbags, doors, lights, etc.), nor do LSV’s have the robust structural and/or safety
precautions to handle impact. You should aways be careful and cautious when operating your
LSV. Driving a LSV recklessly or irresponsibly can lead to extreme bodily harm and even
death. You should always think twice before making the decision to drive your LSV on public
roadways. It can be extremely dangerous.
• Location-based features of the Service utilize detailed location and route information, such
as GPS signals and other data sent by your mobile device when the App is installed and
activated. These features cannot be provided without utilizing this technology. For more details,
please refer to our Privacy Policy.
• JCA allows you to use the Service whether or not you choose to set up a username/account
for yourself. If you choose to use the Service without setting up a username/account you may
do so by skipping the username/account setup stage of the application installation process.
However, please note that JCA will still link all of your information with your account and a
unique identifier generated by JCA in accordance with the Privacy Policy. Note that in order to
access certain features of the Service (for example map editing, ranking, moods) you will need
to set up a username/account.
• Advertisements. Advertisements may appear on the Service from time to time. JCA does not
endorse these advertisements, and the advertisements are not intended to be, nor should they
be, viewed by drivers unless and until their vehicle has come to a complete stop.
• The Internet connection required to use the Service, and any associated charges (e.g.
mobile data expenses) incurred by your use of the Service are your exclusive
responsibility and made solely at your expense. Transmitting and receiving real-time
updates to and from the Service, requires an online (e.g. Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G) connection between
your cellular device and the Internet. The expenses of such connection are as prescribed by the
agreement between you and your communication service provider (such as your cellular
company), and according to their applicable terms of payment.
• Your age: The Service is intended for use by users who are of the legal age required to hold
a driving license. In any case, to use our Service you must be sixteen (16) years of age or older.
Anyone under sixteen (16) years of age is strictly prohibited from creating an account for the
Service without explicit parental consent (or other age to the extent that your jurisdiction
requires). If JCA is notified or has a reasonable belief that a username/account belongs to a
user who is under the age of sixteen (16) years, the account will be deleted without further
notice.
By providing consent for a child who is under the age of sixteen (16) years to use the
Service, parents and guardians agree to: (i) be fully responsible for and exercise oversight of
the child’s use of the Services, including ensuring that such use is always in accordance with
this TOU, all documents referenced in this TOU, and all applicable laws; (ii) to be fully
responsible and liable for the child’s compliance with this TOU and the child’s use of the
Services; and (iii) to be fully responsible for the disclaimers, waivers, and limitations of liability
set out in this TOU on your own behalf and on the child’s behalf, and all references to “you” or
“your” throughout this TOU will be deemed amended to include your child or your ward, as
applicable. The Service is not available to any person previously removed from the Service by
JCA.
USING THE SERVICE
You may use the Service solely for private and personal purposes. You may not use the Service
commercially. For example, you may not: (i) offer to third parties a service of your own that uses
the Service; (ii) resell the Service; (iii) offer to rent or lease the Service; or (iv) offer the Service
to the public via communication or integrate it within a service of your own, without the prior
written consent of JCA. For clarity, the examples listed are made for illustrative purposes only;
they do not constitute an exhaustive list of restricted activities involving the Service. You may not
copy, print, save, or otherwise use data from the Service’s database. This clause
does not limit the use of the database as intended by the Service and for the purposes of private
and personal use of the Service.
When using the Service, you may not engage in scraping, data mining, harvesting, screen
scraping, data aggregating, and indexing. You agree that you will not use any robot, spider,
scraper, or other automated means to access the Service’s database for any purpose without
the express prior written permission of JCA.
The Service may not be used in any way that is not expressly permitted by these TOU.

harmful to the Service, its users, JCA, or any of its agents or affiliates. In such cases, JCA may
also terminate your access to the Service or prevent you from posting additional Content on the

BILLING AND PAYMENT TERMS
This section provides additional policies and information regarding JCA’s billing practices,
pricing, and payment terms.
(a) Billing Policies
If you choose to utilize subscription features for use of the Service, you acknowledge and agree
to the pricing and payment terms displayed when you subscribe. JCA reserves the right to
introduce new features that may incur additional fees and charges, or modify existing fees and
charges for existing services, at any time in our sole discretion. Any changes to our pricing or
payment terms will only apply to you and will become effective in the billing cycle following at
least 30 days’ notice to you.
JCA is not responsible for all the mobile data usage resulting from the use of the Service. For
any questions related to billing, please consult your mobile network provider, as data rate
charges and limits may apply.
(b) Pricing and Payment Terms
All subscription fees, including applicable taxes and other charges, are payable in advance at
the beginning of your subscription term. Additionally, these fees will be charged at the then-
current subscription fee at the start of each subsequent billing period.
You may have the option to pay your subscription fee on a 4-day only basis ("4-day Subscription”),
a monthly basis (a Monthly Subscription”), or on an annual basis (an “Annual Subscription").
Your subscription with us will automatically renew until you cancel it. If you have
a 4-day Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you upon
commencement of the 4-day Subscription, and the period of use of the Service shall be limited to 4
days only, after which time the Service will automatically terminate. If you have a Monthly Subscription,
we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you
each month on the anniversary of the commencement of your Monthly Subscription, using the
payment information you have provided until you cancel your Monthly Subscription. If you have
an Annual Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you
annually on the anniversary of the commencement of your Annual Subscription, using the
payment information you have provided, until you cancel your Annual Subscription. If you have
an Annual Subscription, we will send you a reminder at least thirty (30) days prior to each
renewal with the then-current Subscription Fee. We may send additional reminders for other
subscriptions as required. We reserve the right to change our subscription fees for 4-day, Monthly, and/or
Annual Subscriptions fees at any time for any reason. We will provide you advance
notice of any increase in the subscription fees applicable to your subscription.
If you modify or upgrade your subscription plan, your billing date may also change. If you
change from a Monthly Subscription to an Annual Subscription, on your next billing date
you will be charged the then-current subscription fee for the Annual plan, and your Annual Subscription
will automatically renew on a n annual basis. If you decide to change from an Annual Subscription to a
Monthly Subscription, at the next renewal date for your Annual
Subscription, you will be charged the then-current subscription fee for the Monthly Subscription
which will automatically renew on a monthly basis.
(b) Payment Methods
JCA accepts most major credit and debit cards. It also accepts in-app payments from third-party
platforms like Apple or Google. If JCA encounters an issue with charging your card (e.g., an
expired credit card), JCA will notify you to update your card information. You’ll have a seven (7)
day grace period to update your billing details. If the account remains unupdated within this
period of time, JCA may terminate your subscription immediately.
By purchasing a subscription (each a “Transaction”), you explicitly authorize us (or our third-
party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may request additional
information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, expiration date,
email, and postal addresses for billing and notifications. This information, known as “Payment
Information,” represents the legal right to use all payment methods you provide. You
acknowledge and agree that we have no liability of any kind whatsoever for any actions or
omissions by your payment provider.
When initiating a Transaction, you authorize us to share your Payment Information with third
parties to complete the transaction and charge your payment method for the selected type of
transaction (plus applicable taxes and other charges). You may need to provide additional
information to verify your identity before completing the transaction. This information is included
within the definition of Payment Information.
JCA is not liable for any charges or expenses you incur due to charges billed by JCA in
accordance with this Agreement (e.g., overdrawn accounts or exceeding credit card limits). By
providing a credit card number or other payment method with advance authorization features
(e.g., certain PayPal accounts or in-app payments from third parties like Apple or Google), you
grant JCA permission to continue charging the payment method for all charges due to JCA,
including taxes, until your account is settled and your subscription is terminated by either you or
JCA. JCA, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to limit the number of accounts that may be
charged to a credit card or other payment or identification method per unique user.
(c) Pricing Changes
Subscription prices may change periodically to reflect inflation or evolving business
requirements. If such a change occurs and you currently have a subscription, JCA will provide
you with advance notice via email (or, if you haven’t provided a valid email address, through the
Services or another available method) before the price change takes effect. If you no longer
wish to continue at the new price, you can cancel your applicable subscription plan before the
price increase becomes active by following the instructions in the Section below (Cancel Your
Subscription or Close Your Account).
(c) Refunds
You can cancel your subscription and account anytime, as per the Section below (Cancel Your
Subscription or Close Your Account). However, except as specified in that Section or prohibited
by applicable law, there are no refunds for unused time on a subscription, any license or
subscription fees for a portion of the Service, any content or data associated with your account,
or for any other charges. When you cancel any features, your subscription remains valid, and
you’ll continue to access those features until the end of your current paid period. For instance, if
you buy an annual subscription and cancel it two (2) months into the year, you won’t receive a
refund for the remaining months. Instead, you’ll enjoy the features for the ten (10) months
you’ve already paid for.
(d) Payment Information; Taxes
All information that you provide in connection with a purchase or Transaction or other monetary
transaction interaction with the Service must be accurate, complete, and current. You agree to
pay all charges incurred by users of your credit card, debit card, or other payment method used
in connection with a purchase, or Transaction, or other monetary transaction interaction with the
Service at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. You will pay any applicable
taxes, if any, relating to any such purchases, Transactions, or other monetary transaction
interactions.
CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION OR CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT
You can cancel your subscription or close your account at any time, subject to the terms of this
TOU.
If you purchased a subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you
must cancel your subscription and recurring payments in those app stores to avoid
future charges.

validity, enforceability, or scope of this clause. The only Disputes excluded from this obligation
to arbitration are: (1) claims that could be brought in small claims court; and (2) JCA’s claims for
injunctive or other equitable relief.
You must send written notice of any dispute you have with JCA to us at least sixty (60) days
before filing a demand for arbitration pursuant to the following paragraphs. Your notice of
dispute should be sent to us at our official address or email address below to give us the

resolution of your dispute in good faith for the duration of the 60-day period. If we are unable to
resolve your dispute, then you may file a demand for arbitration pursuant to the paragraphs that
follow.

except where prohibited by applicable law, we each agree to resolve all Disputes (except the
small claims and equitable claims excluded above) by binding arbitration brought before the
arbitration body indicated below. Arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration

arbitrator. The arbitration will be conducted in English, in Orange County, Florida, USA. The
arbitral award will be final and binding on the parties and its execution may be presented in any
competent court, including any court with jurisdiction over either party. Each party will be
responsible for paying their own arbitration filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in
accordance with the applicable rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of
arbitration and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgement on the
award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. In
addition, reasonable attorneys’ fees shall be awardable to the prevailing party of such arbitration
proceeding. Any arbitration proceeding conducted in accordance with this Section will be
considered Confidential Information, including, without limitation, the existence of any
information disclosed during, and any oral communications or documents related to, the
arbitration proceedings or prior negotiations. The parties may disclose information regarding the
arbitration proceeding to a competent court as may be necessary to file any order or execute
any arbitral decision, but the parties must request that those judicial proceedings be conducted
in camera (in private).
