TERMS APPLICABLE TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES
You must be at least 18 years of age and have the requisite mental and legal capacity to use our Services.
You must register for a user account through the App (“User Account”) before any use of our App and in order to hire Vehicles via our App (“User Account”).

The payment details are provided to our third-party payment processors and are only accessed or stored by us in masked format.
Your User Account is personal to you and you will ensure that it is kept secure and not shared with or used by anyone else. You will not, directly or indirectly, create a User Account for another person or transfer your User Account to another person. When using a Vehicle, you will comply with all security measures that we may communicate to you from time to time in your User Account when unlocking the Vehicle. You are responsible for all loss and damage arising from your disclosure of your User Account information, or any electronic threats, attacks or fraudulent activity resulting from your failure to safeguard the security of your User Account. You must immediately report any suspicions of unauthorized access to your User Account to: support@ridedott.com. You are responsible for the use of your User Account at all times.
All information that you have provided to us must be accurate, true, up-to-date and complete and you agree to keep it this way.

All applications for User Accounts are subject to our approval, which shall be given on a non-discriminatory basis. We reserve the right to reject any application for a User Account. Registration for a User Account is completed when you receive a confirmation that you can start riding within the App.
Via your User Account you can rent a Vehicle based on an Individual Rental Agreement as follows: In your User Account you can identify any available Vehicles and unlock such Vehicles for usage. When you unlock the Vehicle in your User Account to start a ride (as further described in Section “Starting and Ending a Ride” below), you enter into an Individual Rental Agreement with TIER for the use of such specific Vehicle. Should you rent a Vehicle via a Third Party Platform you will enter into an Individual Rental Agreement upon unlocking a Vehicle via such Third Party Platform. In either case, the Individual Rental Agreement shall be based on these Terms as well as any additional terms (such as relating to fees and permitted operational areas as well as the applicable Insurance Policy) which will be displayed to you in your User Account or via the Third Party Platform (as applicable), at the time before you unlock the Vehicle.
You are obliged to follow the below rules at all times when making use of some or all Services:
Age and Capacity: You are at least 18 years old and, when required by local laws as indicated in your User Account or by a Third Party Platform, have a valid driver’s license. You will ensure that you are familiar with the way of operating our Vehicles and are physically and mentally fit to do so.
Safety First: Prior to using the Vehicle we recommend you inspect the Vehicle for damage (including checking the frame, deck, kick stand, tires, lights and display) and test the brakes and throttle. Make sure you check that the battery is sufficiently charged to get you to where you want to go. If you are using an e-bike, make sure your seat is properly adjusted prior to riding. Before taking off you should take note of the weather and check your surroundings in order to avoid a collision and confirm you have a clear path for movement. Make sure you constantly monitor the weather, the conditions of the Vehicle and your riding environment during the ride and adjust your riding behavior to ensure a safe ride. Should the Vehicle appear defective prior to riding or at any time during your ride you should cease using the Vehicle immediately and report it to us (“Defective Vehicle”). We recommend you wear a helmet and we require that you use helmets in all countries where they are legally required for operation of the Vehicles (as indicated in your User Account or by a Third Party Platform, as applicable).
Compliance with Laws: You are obliged to conduct yourself in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including laws and regulations relating to the use of the Vehicles and all traffic rules and regulations applicable to the use and parking of the Vehicles. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in fines, penalties, loss of drivers license and termination of your User Account.
Availability: Our Services may not be available 24/7. There may be circumstances where our Services are interrupted, delayed or unavailable, including due to planned maintenance, upgrades, urgent repairs. We also reserve the right to suspend the Services in whole or in part when this is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests. You can identify which Vehicles are available at any time via our App or via Third Party Platforms. The number of Vehicles is limited and Vehicle availability is never guaranteed.
Sole User: When you unlock a Vehicle you must be the sole user of such Vehicle and you are solely responsible for compliance with the rules as set forth in these Terms when using the Vehicle. Unless you are taking a Group Ride, you will ensure that no one except you uses a Vehicle once you have unlocked it. YOU WILL NOT CARRY OTHER PEOPLE OR ANIMALS ON OR IN CONNECTION WITH OUR VEHICLES. IT IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED TO RIDE A VEHICLE WITH MORE THAN ONE PERSON. THE VEHICLES ARE DESIGNED FOR USE BY ONE INDIVIDUAL AUTHORISED USER AT A TIME.
Handle our Vehicles with Care: You are obliged to treat any equipment (including Vehicles) provided to you with appropriate care, diligence and safety at all times.
Restrictions on use of Services: You will comply with the following use restrictions in relation to our Services at all times:
Parking: You must park Vehicles in Designated Parking Areas within the Operational Areas and where no Designated Parking Areas exist you will always park the Vehicle in a manner which is permitted by law and does not block building entrances or interfere with the use of public streets, roads and sidewalks by pedestrians, or traffic, and that allows us to access the Vehicle. We may request you send a photograph of the Vehicle to evidence that it has been parked correctly. Such request will be made within the App or Third Party Platform (as applicable) when you choose to end a ride and lock the Vehicle. Ending a ride for some Vehicles may involve additional manual steps, these will be communicated to you via the App via the App or Third Party Platform (as applicable). Do not attempt to secure or lock the Vehicles by any method other than through the App via the App or Third Party Platform (as applicable). . We may charge you an administrative fee of up to EUR300 in respect of our costs for recovering any Vehicle in the event you do not follow our above mentioned parking and locking instructions.
Starting and Ending a Ride: A ride starts from the moment you “unlock” a Vehicle in the App and ends as soon as you select the “end ride” option in the App (or via the equivalent process on a Third Party Platform) thereby locking the Vehicle again. Upon ending a ride you must park the Vehicle in accordance with our parking instructions above. After ending a ride you may no longer make use of the Vehicle and must repeat the unlocking process to gain use again. Should the Vehicle remain inactive for a certain period of time we may elect to end the ride on your behalf.
Fines: You will be solely liable for and will pay any fines, fees, penalties, impounding cost and/or other charges imposed by a governmental authority resulting from parking or using a Vehicle improperly, or by you violating any law, rule or regulation while using our Vehicles or by you failing to comply with any of these Terms (“Fines”). In such cases We will be authorised to provide any necessary information of you, requested or required by the relevant government authority. In some instances, we may pay such Fines on your behalf (in which case you will reimburse us for the payment of such Fines together with an administration fee of EUR50 and any additional costs reasonably incurred by us for handling the payment of the Fine on your behalf unless you can prove that the costs for such efforts made by us for handling such Fines were lower). We have the right to deduct such Fines and charges from your chosen payment method and should you have insufficient funds available for us to deduct such Fines and charges, you agree that we can contact you in order for you to make payment to us (such payment to be made immediately upon request). We may charge you a Fine of EUR50 for any breach of the Terms, regardless of whether another Fine, administration fee or penalty is imposed because of or in relation to a breach of the Terms.
Reporting Accidents and Loss or Damage to Vehicles: You will report any damages, accidents, personal injury, Defective Vehicles, stolen or lost Vehicle to us in the context of your use of the (Defective) Vehicle as immediately. You will immediately file a report with the local police department if a Vehicle you rented is stolen. Note that any failure to report an accident may impact your coverage under any insurance provided by us.
RISK OF INJURIES AND DAMAGES: RIDING, USING OR OPERATING A VEHICLE CARRIES AN INHERENT RISK OF CAUSING INJURY (INCLUDING DEATH) TO YOURSELF, OTHERS AND/OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY THAT CANNOT BE AVOIDED ENTIRELY EVEN IF PROPER PRECAUTIONS ARE TAKEN.
We will maintain all insurance required to operate our Services under local laws, such as third-party liability insurance to cover your liability for accidental physical injury to third parties or accidental damage to the physical property of third parties arising from your use of the Vehicles. In certain countries we will also provide you with additional insurance coverage (over and above that required by law) for accidental death or permanent disability caused by an accident arising from your use of the Vehicles which we will indicate in your User Account or via a Third Party Platform (as applicable).
All insurance coverage we provide to you is subject to the terms and conditions of Our Insurance Policy for the specific country in which you are using the Vehicle at the time of the accident.
COPIES OF OUR INSURANCE POLICIES ARE AVAILABLE HERE: https://ridedott.com/insurance. YOU ARE ADVISED TO READ THESE TERMS AS A FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE TERMS MAY RESULT IN THE INSURER REJECTING YOUR CLAIM.
OUR PROVISION OF INSURANCE IS IN NO WAY AN ADMISSION OF LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND AND IS NOT INTENDED TO ACT AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR OWN INSURANCE. We recommend that you ensure you have adequate personal insurance in place to cover the risks involved in using our Services.
