Terms of Service
By creating an account you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
1. Who can use it
You must be at least 18 years old and able to agree to these Terms. One account per person.
2. What People's Exchange is
A free community app to trade or give away everyday goods and simple services. We are not a party to any trade, we don't inspect items, and we don't guarantee the safety, quality or legality of anything offered. You trade at your own risk and are responsible for your own safety. Always meet in public places.
3. Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users
No harassment, hate, threats, sexual content, scams, or illegal activity. You may not post or trade: weapons or ammunition; alcohol, tobacco, vapes or drugs; medications or supplements; recalled or unsafe baby items; opened, homemade or expired food; stolen goods; or anything for cash (this is for trading and giving). Our automatic filter blocks some of this, and users can report and block anyone. We review reports within 24 hours and will remove content and ban users who break these rules.
4. Your content
You own what you post. You give us permission to display it in the app so the service works. Don't post anything you don't have the right to share, or anyone else's private information.
5. People's Exchange Plus (optional subscription)
The app is free with ads. Plus removes ads for $4.99 per month (or local equivalent), billed through your Apple ID or Google Play account. It renews automatically each month unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel any time in your Apple or Google account settings (or Settings > Plus in the app). Cancelling stops future charges; refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies. Trading, matching, messages and safety tools are always free; Plus only removes ads.
6. Ending your account
You can delete your account in Settings at any time. We may suspend or remove accounts that break these Terms or put others at risk. Deleting the app does not cancel a Plus subscription; cancel it through Apple or Google.
7. Disclaimers and limits
The app is provided "as is". To the fullest extent the law allows, People's Exchange isn't liable for losses or injuries arising from trades or meetups between users, and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the past 12 months (which may be $0).
8. Intellectual property: please don't copy
People's Exchange™ is owned by Anthony Hall. Everything on this website and in the app belongs to him, including the content, design, text, graphics, logos, the two-way "I need" / "I have" matching experience as implemented, the software, and the source code.

9. Apple-specific terms
These Terms are between you and People's Exchange, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content and has no duty to provide support. Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies.
10. Law
Nevada law applies, except where your local consumer law says otherwise. We may update these Terms and will tell you in the app if changes are important.
