Terms of Service

Last updated: March 28, 2026

Welcome to TripKit. By accessing or using the TripKit web application (available at tripkit.app), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, please do not use TripKit.

1. About TripKit

TripKit is a collaborative group trip-planning tool. It allows users to manage itineraries, track shared expenses, maintain checklists, share locations, upload travel documents, communicate via group chat, and use AI-assisted planning features — all within a shared trip workspace.

2. Eligibility and Age Requirements

You must be at least 13 years old to use TripKit. If you are located in the European Union or EEA, you must be at least 16 years old, or have verifiable parental consent, in accordance with GDPR Article 8. By using TripKit you represent that you meet these age requirements.

We do not knowingly permit children under the minimum age to use TripKit. If we become aware that an underage user has registered, we will delete their account.

3. Account Registration

You may register using an email address and password, or via Google OAuth ("Continue with Google"). You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate and truthful registration information
  • Keeping your account credentials secure and confidential
  • All activity that occurs under your account
  • Notifying us immediately of any unauthorised use at nikhil.ha@gmail.com

One person may not create multiple accounts to circumvent feature limitations or bans.

4. User Content and Intellectual Property

Your Content

You retain all intellectual property rights in the content you submit to TripKit, including itinerary entries, expense records, chat messages, checklist items, and uploaded files ("User Content").

By uploading or submitting User Content, you grant TripKit a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, display, and transmit your User Content solely for the purpose of providing the TripKit service to you and your trip group.

We do not claim ownership of your User Content. We do not use your User Content for marketing or advertising without your separate, explicit consent.

Uploaded Documents (Including Passports)

TripKit allows you to upload travel documents, including identity documents such as passports. You are solely responsible for your decision to upload sensitive identity documents. Documents are stored securely and accessible only to authenticated members of your trip group. We strongly recommend you consider whether uploading identity documents is necessary for your trip planning needs.

TripKit Intellectual Property

All other content, software, design, and branding associated with TripKit (excluding User Content) remains the intellectual property of TripKit. You may not copy, reproduce, or redistribute it without our written permission.

5. The AI Features and @tripkit Bot

TripKit includes AI-powered features, including the @tripkit chat bot, AI itinerary generation, and checklist suggestions. By using these features, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • Your trip data and chat messages containing @tripkit are sent to third-party AI services (Groq and/or Google Gemini) located in the United States for processing.
  • AI responses are automatically generated and may be inaccurate, incomplete, or inappropriate. Do not rely solely on AI responses for critical travel or safety decisions.
  • TripKit makes no warranty regarding the accuracy, reliability, or fitness of AI-generated content.
  • You will not use AI features to generate harmful, illegal, or abusive content.

6. Trip Roles and Permissions

TripKit supports three roles within a trip:

  • Owner — full control, including deleting the trip and managing members
  • Member — can add/edit trip content, send messages, and share expenses
  • Viewer — read-only access to trip content with limited chat permissions

As an owner, you have the right to remove members and delete trips. Deleting a trip permanently removes all associated data. As a member, you accept that the trip owner may remove you or delete content.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use TripKit to:

  • Violate any applicable law or regulation
  • Harass, threaten, or abuse other users
  • Upload content that is illegal, defamatory, obscene, or infringes third-party rights
  • Upload malicious files, viruses, or code
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to other users' data or trip workspaces
  • Scrape, reverse-engineer, or overload the service
  • Share your account with unauthorised parties
  • Use TripKit for commercial resale or to build a competing product without permission

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

8. Privacy

Your use of TripKit is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please read it carefully — it explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

9. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

No Warranties

TripKit is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not guarantee that TripKit will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TripKit and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of or inability to use TripKit, including loss of data, travel disruptions, or financial loss. Our total aggregate liability to you shall not exceed €100 / $100 / £100 (or equivalent in your currency).

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TripKit and its operators from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your violation of these Terms, your User Content, or your infringement of any third-party rights.

11. Service Availability and Modifications

We strive to keep TripKit available but cannot guarantee 100% uptime. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time, with or without notice. We are not liable for any service interruptions.

12. Account Termination

You may delete your account at any time via Profile → Delete Account. Deleting your account permanently removes your profile and authentication record. Trip data you contributed (expenses, messages, etc.) may remain within the trip workspace under ownership of the trip owner.

We may terminate or suspend your account at any time for violation of these Terms, with or without prior notice.

13. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Norway (or the jurisdiction where the operator resides), without regard to conflict of law provisions. For EU consumers, the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence also apply.

We encourage you to contact us at nikhil.ha@gmail.com to resolve any disputes informally before pursuing formal proceedings. EU users may also use the EU Online Dispute Resolution platform.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision. We will notify users of material changes via in-app notice or email where possible. Continued use of TripKit after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
