1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using PuntoLatino (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Service.
2. Description of Service
PuntoLatino helps you find Latino events in the United States and meet people who are going to them. It includes this website and the PuntoLatino app for iPhone and Android. Event listings come from organizers who post them, and from publicly available information we gather and summarize with the help of AI. The app also has a community where members can make a profile, say they’re going to an event, start or join plans with a group chat, chat with others in their city, and see who else is nearby.
3. Your Account
You need to be 18 or older to make an account. Use your real first name and your real birthday, and keep your account to yourself. You’re responsible for what happens on it. You can delete your account at any time from the Profile tab in the app.
4. Community Rules
We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and for people who abuse others. You agree not to post, send, or upload anything that is:
- harassing, threatening, bullying, or hateful toward anyone
- sexually explicit, or nudity of any kind
- violent, or meant to encourage violence or self harm
- spam, scams, or ads nobody asked for
- pretending to be someone else, or using someone else’s photos
- illegal, or about selling drugs, weapons, or sex
You also agree not to message people who have made it clear they don’t want to hear from you, collect other members’ information, or use PuntoLatino to look for anyone under 18.
Every profile, plan, and message has a way to report it, and you can block anyone so you no longer see each other. We look at reports within 24 hours. If something breaks these rules we remove it, and we may remove the person who posted it from the community or close their account without warning. Don’t misuse the Service in other ways either, like trying to get into accounts or parts of the Service you shouldn’t, or sending us false information.
5. Your Content
What you post stays yours. That includes your profile, photos, events, plans, and messages. By posting it you let us store it and show it to the people it’s meant for, for as long as it’s on PuntoLatino. Only post things you have the right to share. We don’t review profiles, photos, or messages before they appear, but we can remove anything that breaks these Terms.
6. Meeting People
PuntoLatino helps you meet people, but we don’t screen members or run background checks, and we aren’t responsible for how anyone acts, online or in person. Meet in public places, tell a friend where you’re going, and trust your gut. If someone makes you feel unsafe, report them in the app, and call 911 if you’re in danger.
7. Third-Party Links and Listings
Listings link to and describe businesses and events operated by third parties. PuntoLatino does not control these third parties and is not responsible for their goods, services, content, or availability.
8. Intellectual Property
The PuntoLatino name, logo, brand, site design, software, and the original summaries, categorizations, and editorial content we produce are owned by PuntoLatino and protected by copyright and trademark law. You may not reproduce or redistribute these elements without permission.
Listings aggregate publicly available information about events and businesses operated by third parties, and may include images and excerpts originating from those third parties. We do not claim ownership of facts (such as names, dates, addresses, and times), nor of third-party content displayed in listings.
9. Content Removal & Correction Requests
If you are a venue owner or event organizer and would like a listing about your business or event corrected, updated, or removed, email puntolatinoapp@gmail.com. We respond within 5 business days.
Events posted by account holders are published without prior review. We remove listings that are not genuine Latino events, or that otherwise violate these terms, once we become aware of them.
If you have other concerns about content displayed in a listing, including questions about images or written material, please use the same email and include the URL of the listing and a description of your concern. We review and respond promptly.
10. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or availability of any listing or information on the Service.
11. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, PuntoLatino shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the Service.
12. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, California.
