These Terms of Use, together with the Community Guidelines and Privacy Policy, which are incorporated by reference (collectively, the "Terms"), are an agreement between you and Wren Studio Inc. ("Wren," "we," "us"). The Terms govern your access to and use of the Wren mobile application (the "App"), the joinwren.app website (the "Website"), and any content, features, or services offered through them (collectively, the "Service"), including any posts, comments, photos, alerts, map data, or other materials appearing on the Service ("Content").
By creating an account or accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Service.
THESE TERMS REQUIRE THAT DISPUTES BE RESOLVED THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS, AND LIMIT THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE. PLEASE REVIEW SECTION 14 (GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION) CAREFULLY. YOU MAY OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 14(E).

We may condition membership on additional verification steps, including identity verification through a third-party provider, and may decline, suspend, or remove membership where these requirements are not met or cannot be confirmed.
You access the Service by signing in with your Apple ID. Within the Service, you are represented by a username generated by Wren. You may maintain only one account.

If you believe your account has been accessed without authorization, notify us immediately at hello@joinwren.app.
The Service is evolving, and its form and features may change from time to time without prior notice. We may add, modify, or discontinue features, or suspend or stop the Service in whole or in part, at any time. We may also create limits on use of the Service at our sole discretion.
We may modify these Terms from time to time. The current version will be posted on the Website with its Last Updated date. If a change materially affects your rights, we will provide notice in the App before it takes effect. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree to a change, you must stop using the Service.
By using the Service, you agree that we may send you communications related to the Service, including push notifications you have enabled, and email regarding your account, security, legal notices, and Service updates.

WREN IS NOT AN EMERGENCY SERVICE AND IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR ONE. IF YOU BELIEVE YOU OR ANYONE ELSE IS IN DANGER, CALL 911 OR YOUR LOCAL EMERGENCY NUMBER. DO NOT USE THE SERVICE TO REQUEST EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT: (1) CONTENT ON THE SERVICE CONSISTS OF ACCOUNTS AND OPINIONS SUBMITTED BY MEMBERS AND IS NOT VERIFIED FACT; (2) WREN DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT ANY CONTENT, ALERT, OR MAP INFORMATION IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, CURRENT, OR TIMELY, AND THE ABSENCE OF CONTENT ABOUT A LOCATION IS NOT A REPRESENTATION THAT THE LOCATION IS SAFE; (3) ALERTS AND NOTIFICATIONS DEPEND ON YOUR SETTINGS, YOUR DEVICE, AND NETWORKS OUTSIDE OUR CONTROL, AND MAY BE DELAYED, INCOMPLETE, OR UNAVAILABLE; AND (4) ANY RELIANCE ON THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT PLACE YOURSELF OR OTHERS IN DANGER IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, INCLUDING TRAVELING TO OR REMAINING IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION IN ORDER TO CREATE OR CAPTURE CONTENT. WREN HAS NO ABILITY TO DIRECT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU GATHER CONTENT, AND ANY INJURY OR DAMAGE YOU SUFFER IN DOING SO IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
All Content is the sole responsibility of the person who submitted it. We may, but are not obligated to, monitor, review, or moderate Content. We do not endorse, support, or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any Content. You may be exposed to Content that is inaccurate, offensive, or otherwise objectionable. Any use of or reliance on Content is at your sole risk. Under no circumstances will Wren be liable for any Content, including errors or omissions in Content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of Content posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available through the Service.
You retain ownership of the Content you submit. By submitting, posting, or displaying Content on or through the Service, you grant Wren a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense to our service providers, to host, store, use, copy, reproduce, process, adapt, modify (for technical and formatting purposes), publish, display, and distribute such Content in connection with operating, providing, improving, and promoting the Service. This license ends when you delete your Content or your account, except: (1) as described in the Privacy Policy regarding backups and deletion; (2) where your Content has been shared with others through the Service and they have not deleted it (for example, replies to a tombstoned comment); and (3) where retention is required by law or reasonably necessary for safety, security, or legal purposes.
You represent and warrant that: (1) you own or have the necessary rights to the Content you submit and to grant the license above; (2) your Content and our use of it as permitted by these Terms will not infringe, misappropriate, or violate any third party's intellectual property rights, rights of publicity or privacy, or any applicable law; and (3) your Content complies with the Community Guidelines, including the requirement that accounts of events be firsthand.
We reserve the right (but have no obligation) to remove or refuse to distribute any Content and to suspend or terminate accounts without notice or liability. You may not submit Content that:
You may not do, or attempt to do, or permit any third party to do, any of the following:
We reserve the right to access, preserve, and disclose Content and account information if we reasonably believe it is necessary to: (a) comply with applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request; (b) enforce these Terms, including investigating potential violations; (c) detect, prevent, or address fraud, security, or technical issues; (d) respond to member support requests; or (e) protect the rights, property, or safety of Wren, our members, or the public.
Subject to these Terms, Wren grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, solely for your personal, non-commercial use of the Service. Wren reserves all rights not expressly granted in these Terms.
All right, title, and interest in and to the Service (excluding Content submitted by members), including the App, the Website, and Wren's name, logo, and design, are and will remain the exclusive property of Wren Studio Inc. and its licensors. The Service is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of the United States and other countries. Any feedback, comments, or suggestions you provide regarding the Service is voluntary, and we may use it without restriction and without any obligation to you.
Wren is a membership service. The Service is currently offered without charge during its founding period; paid membership will be introduced. Membership will be offered as a subscription, such as monthly and annual plans, and the applicable fees, billing period, and terms will be disclosed to you before you are charged. Depending on the plan, payment is processed either on the web by our third-party payment processor, Stripe, or through Apple's in-app purchase system. Purchases made through Apple are billed to your Apple ID, are subject to Apple's terms, and are managed and canceled through your Apple ID subscription settings. Members granted founding status retain the benefits communicated to them at the time that status was granted.
If you purchase a subscription when one is offered: (1) your subscription will renew automatically at the end of each billing period for an additional period of the same duration, at the then-current rate, until you cancel; (2) you may cancel at any time, and cancellation takes effect at the end of your then-current billing period; (3) you will retain access through the end of the period you have paid for; and (4) except where required by law, fees are non-refundable and no refunds or credits are provided for partial periods. By purchasing a subscription, you authorize Wren and its payment processor, or Apple for in-app purchases, to charge your payment method at the start of each billing period until you cancel. For subscriptions purchased through Apple, cancellation and any refunds are handled by Apple through your Apple ID settings, under Apple's terms.
Any free trial or promotional access, if offered, is effective only for the period specified. Trials do not extend or accumulate. Promotional credits, including invite rewards, have no cash value, are non-transferable, and are applied as disclosed at the time of the applicable program.
Invite codes are for personal use in inviting people you know who meet the eligibility requirements. Selling invite codes, distributing them publicly, or using them to create accounts that violate these Terms is prohibited and may result in termination of the associated accounts and forfeiture of any related credits or benefits.
You may terminate this agreement at any time by deleting your account in the App (Settings, delete account) and discontinuing use of the Service. The effect of account deletion on your Content is described in the Privacy Policy.
We may remove Content, restrict features, or suspend or terminate your account or access to the Service, at any time, with or without notice, at our sole discretion, including if we reasonably believe: (1) you have violated these Terms or the Community Guidelines; (2) you do not meet the eligibility requirements; (3) you create risk or possible legal exposure for Wren or any member; (4) your account or use of the Service poses a risk to the safety or security of the Service or the community; or (5) providing the Service to you is no longer commercially viable. We are not liable to you or any third party for any suspension or termination. If your access is suspended or terminated, any amounts you have already paid are non-refundable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Upon termination, your license to use the Service ends. Sections 2, 3, 4, 6, 8(C), 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 16 survive any termination of these Terms.

We may remove Content alleged to be infringing and may terminate the accounts of repeat infringers, in each case without prior notice and at our sole discretion.
YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE AND ANY CONTENT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WREN AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, PARTNERS, AND LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, THE "WREN ENTITIES") DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
THE WREN ENTITIES MAKE NO WARRANTY AND DISCLAIM ALL RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY FOR: (1) THE COMPLETENESS, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, TIMELINESS, SECURITY, OR RELIABILITY OF THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT; (2) ANY HARM TO YOUR DEVICE, LOSS OF DATA, OR OTHER HARM RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT; (3) THE DELETION OF, OR FAILURE TO STORE OR TRANSMIT, ANY CONTENT OR COMMUNICATIONS; OR (4) ANY CLAIM THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR BE AVAILABLE ON AN UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE BASIS. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM THE WREN ENTITIES OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY MADE IN THESE TERMS.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE WREN ENTITIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO: (1) YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE; (2) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY MEMBER OR THIRD PARTY ON OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE, INCLUDING DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT; (3) ANY CONTENT OBTAINED FROM THE SERVICE OR RELIANCE THEREON; OR (4) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE WREN ENTITIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DEATH, BODILY INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR RELIANCE ON THE SERVICE.
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE WREN ENTITIES FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (U.S. $100.00) OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID WREN IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION APPLY TO ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, STATUTE, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER OR NOT THE WREN ENTITIES HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, AND EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU RELEASE THE WREN ENTITIES FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO: (1) ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OTHER MEMBER OR THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ANY PERSON REFERENCED IN CONTENT; (2) ANY LOSS, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR PHYSICAL INJURY SUSTAINED BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, YOUR RELIANCE ON ANY CONTENT, OR THE CAPTURING OF CONTENT TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE SERVICE. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHTS AND BENEFITS UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, AND ANY SIMILAR LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION, TO THE FULL EXTENT SUCH RIGHTS AND BENEFITS MAY LAWFULLY BE WAIVED. CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 STATES: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY."
You will indemnify and hold harmless the Wren Entities from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to or use of the Service; (b) your Content; (c) your conduct with respect to any other member or third party; or (d) your violation of these Terms.
These Terms and the relationship between you and Wren are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
Before initiating any formal dispute, you agree to first contact us at hello@joinwren.app and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. Most concerns can be resolved this way.
YOU AND WREN AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, THE SERVICE, OR ANY CONTENT (INCLUDING THE INTERPRETATION, SCOPE, AND ARBITRABILITY OF THIS PROVISION) SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND NOT IN COURT. YOU AND WREN ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as modified by these Terms, and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California, or, at your election, may be conducted remotely or in your county of residence to the extent the AAA rules permit. The arbitrator may award any individual relief or remedies permitted by applicable law. The arbitrator's award will be final and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party bears its own attorneys' fees and costs except where applicable law provides otherwise. Information about the AAA and how to file a claim is available at www.adr.org.
Either party may: (1) bring an individual claim in small claims court; or (2) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights, or the unauthorized scraping, collection, or misuse of Service data or member information. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than arbitration, it shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
You may opt out of this arbitration provision by emailing hello@joinwren.app within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name and that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out of arbitration does not affect any other provision of these Terms.
If the prohibition on class or representative proceedings in Section 14(C) is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then this entire arbitration provision shall be null and void, and the dispute shall proceed in the courts identified in Section 14(D). If any other part of this Section 14 is found invalid or unenforceable, the remainder shall remain in effect.
The App is distributed through the Apple App Store. The following terms apply to your use of the App:
The failure of Wren to enforce any right or provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account, by operation of law or otherwise, without Wren's prior written consent, and any attempt to do so without consent is null. Wren may assign or transfer these Terms without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
Notices provided by Wren under these Terms will be given by email or by posting to the Service. These Terms, together with the Community Guidelines and Privacy Policy, constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between you and Wren regarding the Service, and supersede and replace any prior agreements between you and Wren regarding the Service.
The Service is operated and provided by Wren Studio Inc. If you have questions about these Terms, contact us at hello@joinwren.app.
