Terms of Service

Last updated: May 7, 2026

Agreement to Terms

By using Bridgit (the "Service") at settledbybridgit.com, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Platform Purpose

Bridgit facilitates real-world activity matching and connections. We are not a dating app — we are a platform focused on shared interests and purposeful activities. Professional networking, friendship, and activity partnerships are all welcomed connections. We also host public events and partner-led venue programs.

Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to use Bridgit. By creating an account, you confirm that you meet this age requirement and that the information you provide is accurate.

Acceptable Use

✓ Do

  • • Be respectful and authentic in all interactions
  • • Meet in public places for first activities
  • • Provide accurate information in your profile
  • • Report inappropriate behavior or content
  • • Show up to activities you have committed to
  • • Use the platform for its intended purpose of activity matching

✗ Don't

  • • Harass, threaten, or discriminate against others
  • • Share inappropriate or offensive content
  • • Submit photos containing minors, nudity, weapons, or that depict third parties without their consent — automated moderation will reject these and repeat offenses lead to suspension
  • • Create fake profiles or impersonate others
  • • Attempt to extract, scrape, reverse-engineer, or train other models on Bridgit content, the matching algorithm, or AI explanations
  • • Use the platform to evade trust & safety actions taken against another account
  • • Use the platform for commercial purposes without permission (Business Partner programs are the sanctioned route)
  • • Share personal contact information publicly in profiles or activities
  • • Spam or send unsolicited promotional content
Community Standards

Our platform is built on trust and mutual respect. We have zero tolerance for:

  • • Harassment, bullying, or threatening behavior
  • • Discriminatory language or actions based on race, gender, religion, sexuality, or other protected characteristics
  • • Spam, scams, or fraudulent activities
  • • Sharing of inappropriate, harmful, or illegal content
  • • Repeatedly not showing up to confirmed activities without notice
  • • Attempting to circumvent safety features or privacy controls

Violations may result in account suspension or permanent ban.

Safety Guidelines
First Meeting Safety

Always meet in public venues for first activities. Use our venue suggestions, which are verified public locations.

Trust Your Instincts

If something does not feel right, trust your gut. You can always cancel or leave an activity if you feel unsafe.

Personal Information

Do not share personal contact information (phone, email, social media) in public activity descriptions or profiles. Use our in-app messaging until you're comfortable.

Public Events vs. Private Activities

Activities under /activity/* are private — only the host and matched participants can see them. Events under /events/* are publicly readable, with shareable QR posters and Open Graph metadata.

Don't post anything to a public event you wouldn't put on a public web page. Personal contact info, sensitive data, or anything you wouldn't want indexed by search engines doesn't belong there.

AI Features and Limitations

Bridgit uses third-party AI to generate match explanations and to rank results semantically. Match explanations are AI-generated and may be wrong or omit context. Don't rely on them for legal, medical, financial, or personal-safety decisions. Embedding-based ranking is similarly probabilistic — being matched does not imply endorsement, and not being matched does not imply incompatibility.

Business Partners (SF Chamber × Bridgit and similar programs)

Bridgit operates partner programs (currently the SF Chamber × Bridgit Championship Week program) that let businesses claim a venue profile, offer services to fans, and connect with other partners.

  • Eligibility. A partner account must be claimed by an authorized representative of the business. Eligibility is verified by matching your sign-in email to the contact email associated with the venue record.
  • Accuracy. Partners warrant that the information they provide (hours, capacity, services, supported teams, offers, needs, imagery, contact details) is accurate, lawful, and that they have permission to publish it.
  • B2B Connections opt-in.By completing the claim wizard, you agree that the offers and needs you publish may be matched against other partners' offers and needs and that an introduction may be initiated when both sides opt in.
  • License grant. Partners grant Bridgit a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to display the venue name, logo, hours, partner-supplied photos, public Google ratings, and Championship-Week status to fans during the Championship-Week window and on partner-facing surfaces. This license terminates when the partner account is closed.
    (This clause needs founder review before public ship — see commit notes.)
  • What we share back. Aggregate analytics about visit volume, ranges of expected fan traffic, and category-level demand. We do not share individual fan PII with partners.
  • Termination. Either side may terminate at any time. On partner-initiated deletion, the venue is unlisted from fan-facing surfaces within 7 days; aggregate analytics may be retained.
Intellectual Property

You retain ownership of content you post but grant us the rights necessary to operate the platform. You may not use our platform content, design, or algorithms without permission. Respect others' intellectual property rights.

"Bridgit" and "Social life settled" are trademarks of the operator. The SF Chamber lockup is used under license from the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce.

Liability and Disclaimers

We provide the platform "as is" and cannot guarantee specific outcomes from using our service. We are not responsible for the actions of other users or events that occur during activities. Use common sense and prioritize your safety.

Our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that the platform will be uninterrupted or error-free.

Account Deletion and Data Removal

You may delete your account at any time from the settings page. We soft-delete personal data within 30 days. Reports and ratings you submitted may be retained pursuant to our Privacy Policy. Backups roll off on the standard backup-rotation cadence.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or for other legitimate reasons, including protecting user safety.

Disputes and Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Bridgit launches in the United States; disputes arising from the Service will be resolved first through informal good-faith negotiation. If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, the parties agree to attempt resolution in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California.

(This section needs founder review before public ship — including whether to add an arbitration / class-action waiver.)

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms periodically. We'll notify users of significant changes through the platform. Continued use after changes indicates acceptance of the updated terms.
