Terms of Use

Last updated: October 1, 2026.

Age and general audience

Nearuvo is a general-audience discovery service and is not directed to children under 13. Do not submit personal information about a child through Local Board, business, deal, social-link or privacy forms unless you are the child’s parent or legal guardian and the submission is necessary for a privacy request.

Third-party information

Nearuvo displays or links to information from third-party providers, including Google Maps Platform and OpenStreetMap. Nearuvo does not control third-party inventory, ticket availability, business hours, cancellations, pricing or policies and does not guarantee that a listing is complete or error-free.

Google Maps Platform

Nearuvo includes Google Maps Platform features and content. Your use of those features and content is subject to the then-current Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. Nearuvo’s integration is also governed by the Google Maps Platform Terms and applicable product policies.

Health, legal and veterinary directories

Nearuvo may help users discover nearby doctors, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, lawyers, veterinarians and related public businesses or facilities. These listings are directory information and are not medical, legal or veterinary advice, referrals, diagnoses, treatment recommendations, emergency dispatch, or a guarantee of professional qualifications, availability or suitability. Users should verify licensing, credentials, insurance participation, services, availability and other material details directly with the relevant provider or appropriate licensing authority. Nearuvo should not be used to submit medical records, diagnoses, symptoms, attorney-client communications, legal case facts or veterinary medical records through ordinary discovery/search features.

Movie theaters

Nearuvo uses Google Maps Platform to discover nearby movie theaters and may display current Google-supplied place details and Google-hosted place photos with provider and photo attribution. Nearuvo does not republish theater showtime inventories in this experience. Current schedules, ticket availability and purchases are checked on the theater’s official website or Google Maps. Google-backed theater content is requested live and is not intended to be stored as a permanent local copy.

Pulse submissions

Nearuvo may accept Local Board posts and business-submitted deals or specials. Submissions are not guaranteed to be published. Submitters must have permission to provide the information and any included content, must not submit private addresses or personal information about other people, and must not use Pulse for emergency reporting. Nearuvo may review, edit for clarity, reject, suspend or remove submissions. Businesses submitting promotions must be authorized to represent the business and are responsible for offer accuracy, eligibility rules, dates and legally required disclosures.

Official alerts and public agency data

Pulse may display alerts or transportation information from government or public-agency sources whose feeds and reuse terms Nearuvo has reviewed. Nearuvo is not an emergency service and may not display every alert, closure or change. Users should follow instructions from the responsible agency and call appropriate emergency services when necessary.

Social video and YouTube features

Only link public YouTube, TikTok or Instagram posts that are relevant to the listing. Do not submit private content, impersonation, spam, misleading links or material that violates another person’s rights. Social links are community-submitted or automatically discovered references, not endorsements by Nearuvo. Nearuvo may remove or refuse social links and does not re-upload the original video.

Automatic YouTube discovery is optional. By enabling that feature, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service. YouTube API use is also subject to Google’s applicable API policies and the Google Privacy Policy.

Business claims, sponsored placements and promotions

Nearuvo may sell featured listings or other promotional placements. Paid placements should be identified as Sponsored or otherwise clearly disclosed. Payment does not guarantee impressions, clicks, attendance, sales, rankings or any particular business result. Nearuvo may review, reject, pause or remove a promotion that is inaccurate, unlawful, unsafe, misleading or inconsistent with the service.

Submitting a claim or promotion request does not by itself guarantee verification or placement. Nearuvo may request additional proof of authority to represent a business before changing listing information or activating a promotion.

OpenStreetMap

Separate map tiles and supplemental outdoor data may use OpenStreetMap. OpenStreetMap data is credited to OpenStreetMap contributors and is available under the Open Database License (ODbL). Google Places content is not plotted on the OpenStreetMap map.

Safety, trails and access

Nearuvo does not verify that a venue, park or trail is appropriate or safe for a particular user. Trail conditions, closures, permits, parking, weather, seasonal access and land-management rules can change. Users are responsible for checking official managing-agency information, following local law and using appropriate safety practices before visiting.

Payments and third-party checkout

When Nearuvo offers a paid promotion, checkout may be handled by a third-party payment processor such as Stripe. Payment-card information is entered with and processed by that provider rather than stored by Nearuvo. Ticket, reservation and other consumer purchases may also be completed through third-party services. Their terms, privacy practices, refund rules and availability apply to those transactions.

Changes

These terms may be updated as Nearuvo adds accounts, payments, business tools or other functionality. Material changes should be reflected by updating the date on this page.

These terms are for an early-stage product and do not replace jurisdiction-specific legal review. Qualified counsel should review Nearuvo before a large commercial launch, especially before scaling paid placements, accounts, payments, or targeted advertising.

Third-party data and provider terms

Place, map, movie, ticketing and other third-party data remain subject to the applicable provider terms and may be changed, limited or removed. Nearuvo may keep an integration disabled until the permissions or commercial terms needed for that use are confirmed. Google Maps place summaries or review summaries, when shown, are provider-generated content and are displayed with the required provider attribution or disclosure.

Planning and distance information

Distance filters, displayed distances, opening hours and suggested visit order are planning aids and may be incomplete or change. For Google-backed places, Nearuvo uses supported Google Places search/routing-distance results when available and does not create a separate road-distance product from Google coordinates. Supplemental OpenStreetMap outdoor listings may use a local straight-line distance calculated from OpenStreetMap coordinates. Final turn-by-turn directions, closures and transit conditions should be confirmed in your navigation service before travel.

Search coverage and seasonal discovery

Nearuvo does not claim that Google Maps or any other provider returns every business, venue, event or seasonal attraction. “All” or nationwide browsing means all unique results returned to Nearuvo by the approved live queries or selected-state search at that time, subject to provider ranking, quotas and result limits. Nearuvo does not bulk-download or permanently copy Google Places records and does not scrape third-party event pages.

Guest mode and support submissions

Guest-mode preferences, saved collections and exported backups are convenience features and are not a cloud account or guaranteed backup service. Users are responsible for retaining any exported backup they wish to keep. Support and correction submissions may be reviewed, archived, rejected, or deleted by Nearuvo.
