Terms of Service

Last updated · 7 August 2026

1. Acceptance

By using Rowta, you agree to these Terms of Service.

2. Description

Rowta is a trip planning and expense sharing application for iOS. It helps you plan routes, track costs, and split expenses with travel companions.

3. Your account

• You sign in via Sign in with Apple — we never handle passwords
• You're responsible for keeping your device secure
• You can delete your account at any time from the app settings

4. User content

You own your trip data. By using Rowta, you grant us a limited licence to store and transmit your data solely for the purpose of providing the service.

• We don't claim ownership of your trips, notes, or expenses
• We won't use your data for marketing or sell it to third parties
• Shared trips are visible to all trip members

5. Acceptable use

Don't:

• Attempt to hack, reverse engineer, or compromise the app
• Use the app for illegal purposes
• Abuse the sharing features (spam invites, etc.)
• Misrepresent your identity

6. Objectionable content and abusive behaviour

We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and for abusive behaviour towards other members of a shared trip. This applies to everything you can type, name, or upload in Rowta — including trip names, stop names and notes, expense descriptions, member display names, and receipt photos.

You must not post, upload, or share content that is:

• Harassing, threatening, bullying, or abusive towards anyone
• Hateful or discriminatory, or that incites violence
• Sexually explicit, obscene, or otherwise pornographic
• Depicting or promoting the exploitation or endangerment of children
• Illegal, or that promotes illegal activity
• Someone else's personal information, or content you have no right to share
• Spam, scams, or deliberately deceptive

Blocking another user

You can block any Rowta user from the app, in Settings → Blocked users, or from your friends list. A blocked user cannot add you as a friend, add you to a trip, or join a trip you are part of, and any existing friendship between you is removed. Blocking takes effect on our servers, not just on your device.

Reporting objectionable content

To report objectionable content or an abusive user, email [email protected] with the trip name, what you saw, and — where you can — a screenshot. Reports are confidential.

What we do about it

• We aim to acknowledge every report within 24 hours and to act on it within 24 hours of that acknowledgement
• Content found to breach this section is removed, and the account responsible is warned, suspended, or terminated depending on severity — content involving the exploitation of children, or credible threats of violence, results in immediate termination and, where appropriate, a report to the relevant authorities
• We will tell you the outcome of a report you made. If your account is actioned, we will tell you why and how to appeal — write to [email protected]

Rowta is private group collaboration — content in a trip is visible only to the members of that trip, so we do not monitor it proactively. We rely on reports from members and on the blocking controls above.

7. Subscriptions & payments

• The Free tier is free forever
• Pro features are billed through the App Store
• Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled 24 hours before renewal
• Manage subscriptions in your Apple ID settings

8. Availability

We aim for high uptime but can't guarantee uninterrupted service. Rowta works offline by design — cloud features sync when available.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Sett & Stone Ltd shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of Rowta.

Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.

10. Termination

We may suspend accounts that violate these terms. You can stop using Rowta and delete your account at any time.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.

12. Changes

We may update these terms. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
