Service terms

Terms of Service

Effective September 26, 2026

These Terms govern access to and use of Curèpe, a carpool-coordination service operated by Marescaux Technologies, Inc. By creating an account or using Curèpe, you agree to these Terms.

1. Eligibility and acceptance

You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to agree to these Terms to create or manage a Curèpe account. If you use Curèpe for a family, carpool, or another person, you represent that you are authorized to provide the relevant information and make the selections you submit.

2. What Curèpe provides

Curèpe provides tools for participating families to share availability, coordinate schedules, identify ride-coverage needs, organize volunteer drivers and riders, and receive operational updates. Curèpe is not a transportation carrier, does not provide rides, and does not employ or control volunteer drivers. Families and carpool participants remain responsible for deciding whether a driver, vehicle, route, and arrangement are appropriate for their riders.

3. Participant responsibilities

You agree to provide accurate and current information, promptly communicate material schedule or availability changes, and use information about other participants only for authorized carpool coordination. Drivers are responsible for maintaining any license, insurance, vehicle condition, seating, restraints, and other requirements that apply to them. Parents and guardians remain responsible for their riders and for confirming transportation arrangements.

4. Accounts and security

You are responsible for activity under your account and for protecting access to your devices and authentication methods. Do not share access with an unauthorized person or impersonate another participant. Notify Curèpe promptly through the Feedback option or the contact below if you believe an account or carpool has been accessed without authorization.

5. Schedules and ride information

Schedules, assignments, capacity indicators, routes, notifications, and other coordination information can change and may contain errors or delays. Review the current carpool plan and confirm time-sensitive arrangements directly when necessary. Curèpe is not an emergency service; call 911 or the appropriate emergency service when immediate assistance is needed.

6. Shared participation

A carpool may establish shared-participation expectations for its members. Any acknowledgment presented by Curèpe applies to the identified carpool and version of those expectations. Coordinators and families remain responsible for addressing participation concerns fairly and consistently.

6A. Adult carpool contact sharing

By participating in a carpool, you acknowledge that your family’s designated cellphone number may be provided on demand to authenticated adult members of that same carpool for individual calls or texts and native group messaging. An assigned adult driver’s designated number may also be provided to the rider’s authenticated guardians during the active window for a current confirmed ride. Rider Access does not expose adult phone numbers.

Use another participant’s number only for carpool coordination, safety, or an emergency. Do not publish, add it to an unrelated directory, use it for marketing, or share it outside the applicable carpool. Curèpe opens the device’s native phone or messaging app and does not receive or store the resulting call or conversation. Changes to attendance, cancellations, or driver assignments remain effective only when recorded in Curèpe.

7. Acceptable use

You may not use Curèpe to violate law, harass or threaten another person, submit information you are not authorized to provide, interfere with the service, bypass access controls, probe for vulnerabilities, introduce malicious code, scrape protected participant information, or use carpool information for unrelated commercial or promotional purposes. We may restrict or suspend access when reasonably necessary to protect participants, the service, or legal compliance.

8. Optional text messaging

Curèpe may offer optional SMS or MMS messages for account notices, responses to user-initiated schedule or ride-coordination requests, ride and coverage updates, opt-in confirmations, help, opt-out, and service notices. Curèpe does not use this messaging program for third-party or affiliate marketing.

SMS participation is voluntary and is not a condition of purchasing anything, creating a Curèpe account, or using the core Curèpe application. Enrollment requires a separate affirmative consent action and confirmation from the verified mobile number. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Message frequency varies based on your requests, ride activity, and schedule changes. Message and data rates may apply. Your mobile carrier's terms and charges govern your wireless service.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Curèpe may suspend or end messaging to comply with carrier rules, protect users, or maintain service security. Do not use text messaging for emergencies. Our Privacy Policy explains how Curèpe handles mobile numbers and messaging consent.

8A. Schedule Assistant

The Curèpe Schedule Assistant is an optional texting program. A verified adult in a family can text it to check rides and to update the family’s weekly attendance, ride needs, and driving availability. It may not be available to every family. It is one of the optional messaging programs in section 8, and the terms of that section apply to it.

• Connecting. You connect a verified cellphone from your Curèpe Profile and reply YES to the confirmation text. A connection lasts 90 days; after that, you reconnect from your Profile. Text the assistant only from your own connected cellphone, and only about your own family.
• Automated replies. The assistant’s replies are generated automatically, with the help of third-party AI models, and may misunderstand a request or be wrong. The Ride Plan and schedule in Curèpe are the record of who is riding and driving. If a reply and Curèpe disagree, Curèpe is correct.
• Reviewing changes. Every change is shown to you as a preview first and is saved only when you reply YES. Read each preview before you confirm it. A saved change has the same effect as a change you make in the app, including notifying affected drivers.
• Driver phone numbers. The assistant shares a driver’s number only under the same rules as Ride Contact. Section 6A governs how you may use it.
• Driving reminders. While you are connected, the assistant may text you the evening before a drive you or your family are down for. Reminders are a convenience only. The Ride Plan in Curèpe is the record of who is driving. A missed, late, or incorrect reminder does not change your responsibility to drive, or to arrange a replacement through Curèpe if you cannot.
• Not for emergencies. Do not rely on the assistant for urgent or safety-critical communication. In an emergency, call 911 or your local emergency number.
• Ending it. Reply STOP or choose Disconnect in your Profile to end the connection. Your Curèpe account and manual scheduling remain available.

Section 6 of our Privacy Policy explains how Schedule Assistant messages are processed and kept.

9. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy describes how Curèpe collects, uses, discloses, protects, and retains personal information. Mobile information and messaging opt-in data are not shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

10. Third-party services

Curèpe relies on third-party infrastructure, authentication, communications, mapping, and other service providers. Their availability and processing may be governed by their own terms. Curèpe is not responsible for a third-party service outside its reasonable control.

10A. Voluntary contributions

Curèpe is currently available to families without a required service fee. A signed-in family may separately choose to make a one-time or monthly contribution toward development and operating costs. Monthly contributions renew each month until canceled; you may request cancellation by emailing support@curepe.app. A contribution is not payment for access or transportation, does not unlock features or priority, and does not change Curèpe service. Contributions are not charitable gifts and are not represented as tax-deductible.

Payment credentials are collected and processed on a secure page hosted by our payment processor, not by Curèpe. The processor may provide a receipt and deduct its processing fee before depositing net proceeds to Marescaux Technologies, Inc. To request a refund, email support@curepe.app with the processor receipt or transaction reference. Refund eligibility and timing may depend on the circumstances and processor rules.

11. Intellectual property and license

Curèpe and its software, design, branding, and original content are owned by Marescaux Technologies, Inc. or its licensors. Subject to these Terms, you receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Curèpe for its intended carpool-coordination purposes.

12. Feedback

If you submit feedback or suggestions, you permit Marescaux Technologies, Inc. to use them without restriction or compensation, provided that doing so does not grant us ownership of your personal information or carpool content.

13. Suspension and termination

You may stop using Curèpe at any time. We may suspend or terminate access when an account violates these Terms, creates a safety or security risk, is no longer authorized for the relevant carpool, or when reasonably necessary to comply with law. Provisions that by their nature should continue after termination will survive.

14. Service availability and changes

Curèpe may change, suspend, or discontinue features and does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We will use reasonable efforts to communicate material service changes when appropriate.

15. Disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Curèpe is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. Marescaux Technologies, Inc. does not warrant that schedules, assignments, capacity information, notifications, routes, Schedule Assistant replies, or participant-provided information will always be accurate, complete, available, or timely.

16. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Marescaux Technologies, Inc. and its officers, employees, and service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss arising from transportation decisions or conduct by carpool participants. Our aggregate liability for claims relating to Curèpe will not exceed $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you.

17. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Marescaux Technologies, Inc. and its officers and employees from claims, damages, and reasonable expenses arising from your unlawful use of Curèpe, information you submit without authorization, or material violation of these Terms.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms as Curèpe changes. We will revise the effective date and provide additional notice when appropriate. Material changes to an optional messaging program may require renewed consent.

19. Contact

Questions about these Terms may be submitted through the Feedback option in Curèpe or by email to info@curepe.app.
