Scores, titles, badges, streaks and invites are for recognition and fun. They are worth nothing in money, they belong to Hypefindr, and we can change or remove them at any time. These terms are part of the Terms of Service.
1. What these terms cover
| Feature | What it is |
|---|---|
| Profile types | The four ways to use Hypefindr: Attendee, Watcher, Streamer and Connector. You can switch between them |
| Points and Hype Score | Points you earn for activity in each profile type. Your Hype Score is the points in the profile type you are using |
| Titles | Names you reach as your points grow in a profile type |
| Badges | Awards for activity in each profile type, 12 per type and 48 in all. Some badges shown in the app cannot be earned yet |
| Milestones | Celebrations of your firsts and of counts you reach, such as your first moment, or 25 people attending your plan. Each is recorded once, can arrive as a notification, and stays private unless you share it |
| Weekly streak | The number of weeks in a row you have been active |
| Atmosphere average | An average calculated from reactions |
| Attendance passport, stream passport and broadcasts | Records of the events you checked in to, the live streams you watched, and the live streams you hosted |
| Wrapped | A short summary of your activity that you can share: the events you were part of (checked in to, made, posted a moment at, or attended once they started), the places they were at, and the moments and plans you made, with your streak, title and score |
| Invite codes and people you brought | Your personal invite code and link, and the list of people who joined with it |
Together these are "Recognition Features." They also include any similar feature we add.
2. No monetary value
Recognition Features have no cash value. They are not money, currency, securities, a deposit, a gift card or property. They cannot be bought, sold, traded, transferred, redeemed, cashed out, exchanged for anything, or inherited. Any attempt to sell or trade them, on Hypefindr or elsewhere, is a violation of the Terms and voids them.
3. Not a contest, sweepstakes or lottery
Recognition Features require no purchase and award no prize. A title, badge or ranking is recognition only. If we ever offer a prize, the official rules for that promotion will govern it and will control over these terms. Any such promotion is void where prohibited.
4. We control how they work
We decide, in our sole discretion, how every Recognition Feature is calculated, weighted, displayed and awarded, and who is eligible. We may change methods and weights, recalculate, cap, round, reset, expire, rename or remove any Recognition Feature at any time, without notice or compensation. Our exact formulas are confidential. On request, we explain the main factors behind a score that affects you, as the Privacy Policy describes.
5. Errors
We may correct any error in a Recognition Feature, including one caused by a bug, outage or data problem, even if the correction lowers your score or removes a title or badge. You have no right to keep anything awarded in error.
6. Integrity and forfeiture
We may void or remove any Recognition Feature, without compensation, if we believe it was earned through false check-ins, location spoofing, multiple accounts, bots, coordinated activity, bug exploits or any other breach of the Terms or Community Guidelines. All Recognition Features are forfeited when an account is banned or deleted.
7. Public display
Your profile type, title, badges, Hype Score, atmosphere average, streak and passports can be seen by other users on your profile. Your milestones and the list of people you brought are shown only to you, unless you share them.
8. What scores do not mean
Recognition Features are not endorsements, reviews, safety ratings, or statements about any person's character or any business's quality. Counts, energy and atmosphere averages are generated from user activity and algorithms. They are not Hypefindr's opinion of an event, venue or person. We do not change scores on request from users, hosts or venues.
9. Streaks
Streaks can break because of outages, bugs, travel, permission changes or anything else. We have no obligation to restore a broken streak. Never put yourself at risk to keep a streak, such as by going somewhere unsafe or using the app while driving.
10. Referrals and invite codes
- How it works. Your invite code and link are on your profile. Someone who joins can enter your code once, and they then appear in your list of people you brought. Entering a code records who brought them; it does not give either of you anything of value.
- Invite people you know who would welcome the invitation.
- You are the sender. When you share an invite by text, email or social media, you send it, not Hypefindr. You are responsible for following anti-spam and telemarketing laws where you and the recipient are, including the CAN-SPAM Act and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act in the United States. Never use automated dialers or texting tools to send invites.
- No spam or paid ads. Do not post invite codes in spam, on coupon or deal sites, or in paid advertising that uses the Hypefindr name, without our written permission.
- No fake referrals. Do not invite yourself, create accounts to claim referrals, or pay or reward anyone to sign up.
- No rewards. Referrals earn recognition only. If we add rewards with any value, separate terms will apply.
- We may void any referral or code, and disable invite codes, at any time.
11. Wrapped
Wrapped summarizes your activity, which includes the events you were part of and the places they were at. When you share it, anyone who sees it learns where you have been. Check it before you share it. It may contain errors and is provided for fun only.
12. Ending a feature
We may suspend or end any Recognition Feature, or all of them, at any time. You are not entitled to compensation for any change or ending.
