Bonventure Terms and Conditions
Last Updated: October 31, 2025
By using the Bonventre app, you acknowledge that you have read, understand and abide by the Terms and Conditions.
Bonventure is a map-based experience management tool and social networking application developed by Boenventure, LLC ("we", "us", "our”). Together with the Bonventure “Privacy Policy”, “Community Guidelines” and these “Terms and Conditions” ("Terms") govern your use of the Bonventure application, website, and services (collectively, "Bonventure"). By accessing or using Bonventure, you agree to be bound by these Terms. Please read these Terms fully to the end of the document.
These Terms only apply to your personal and community engagement on Bonventure. We are not responsible for the content or practices of other social media and community engagement platforms.
Important Note: These Terms contain an agreement to resolve most disputes between us through arbitration (instead of suing in court) and to waive jury trials and class actions in most cases. Please read Section 13 carefully.
1. Eligibility and Age Verification
To use Bonventure, you must be at least 13 years old and meet the minimum age required by your local laws to enter into a binding agreement. In some locations, we may be required to restrict access to certain features or content unless you complete an age assurance process and demonstrate that you are an adult. When age assurance is required, we use methods that comply with the laws that apply in that jurisdiction.
2. Account Registration and Responsibilities
To be a Bonventure user, you must create an account (“Account”). You are responsible for any use of Bonventure made through your valid login credentials, including any communications or actions taken through your Account, whether or not you authorized it. Each time your credentials are used, we will presume you authorized the activity, and we are not required to verify the source of access. Do not share your Account with others or use anyone else’s account.
By uploading or posting content on Bonventure, you warrant that you possess or have secured all rights, licenses, consents, and releases that are necessary for your use of that content and for Bonventure’s use as set forth in these Terms.
If you’re using Bonventure on behalf of a company or organization, you confirm that you have the authority to represent your company or organization.
If you are a government entity or official using Bonventure in an official capacity and any provision of these Terms—whether on their own or as modified by the government amendment—is inconsistent with applicable laws that govern your use, please contact us at contact@thebonventure.com to discuss alternative arrangements.
You alone are responsible for protecting the security and confidentiality of your Account. In no event shall we be liable for any loss, theft or fraudulent use of your Account. If you believe your Bonventure Account has been compromised, report it to us at contact@thebonventure.com.
3. User Content
User Content. “Content” means anything you share on Bonventure, including posts, profile details, photos, videos, feedback, suggestions, links, and direct messages.
Your Responsibility. You are solely responsible for your Content. You agree that your Content will comply with all applicable laws and with the Bonventure Community Guidelines. Bonventure is not obligated to actively monitor or control your Content.
Use by Others. Bonventure does not control how others may use your Content. If you believe someone is using your Content in a way that violates these Terms or the Community Guidelines, please follow the Complaints and Appeals process outlined below.
Bonventure’s Use of Your Content. We use your Content only to (i) operate, provide, and improve Bonventure and its features, including by sharing it across Bonventure; and (ii) promote and market Bonventure and its services.
Bonventure’s License to Your Content. You retain ownership of your Content on the Bonventure application and website. Bonventure does not claim rights to your Content, except for the limited rights you grant us under this license.
By sharing Content on Bonventure, you grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:
Operate and Improve Services: Use your Content to develop, operate, and enhance Bonventure and future products and services. For example, we may store and display your posts to other Bonventure users.
Adapt and Display Content: Reproduce, modify, adapt, distribute, and publicly display your Content in any format or media. For example, we may resize content for different devices or feature user posts in promotional materials.
Enable Third-Party Tools: Allow trusted partners—such as content moderation providers—to use your Content as necessary to support Bonventure.
Enforce Our Policies: Remove, block, or modify your Content if we believe it violates these Terms, our Community Guidelines, or other applicable policies.
This license enables us to support core platform functionality and to ensure Bonventure remains safe, responsive, and engaging for everyone. We will never sell your Content without getting your permission first.
Content Deletion. If you delete your account, we will use reasonable efforts to remove your Content from Bonventure, in accordance with applicable laws and our Privacy Policy. Due to the nature of social media and the public dissemination of information across multiple platforms by third-parties, we cannot control or force other services to treat your Content in a particular way and some posts may continue to exist on these services that are outside our control. That means that complete deletion across other platforms may not always be possible.
Bonventure is not responsible for Content you’ve shared on other platforms. To request removal from those services, contact them directly.
4. Proactive Moderation and Illegal Content
We proactively use automated tools and human moderation to detect and act on prohibited content. Bonventure prioritizes the swift removal of terrorism content, child sexual exploitation and abuse (CSEA) content, and other priority illegal content. This proactive technology includes tools that help us recognize hashes of known illegal content and that can detect violations of our terms based on the text in and content of a post. We also rely on user reports, trusted flaggers, law enforcement reports, and reports we receive from NGOs and civil society. When notified, we act swiftly to minimize exposure.
5. Discover Feed and Recommender Systems
Bonventure currently does not use a recommender algorithm to populate the News Feed and personalize recommendations such as suggested accounts, but we reserve the right to do so in the future. You will be able to opt out of the News Feed via your settings. In addition to the News Feed, you will see content generated by other users on the Explore map page. This content is generated by users and is visible on the map by all users generally. Our algorithm on this map page does not use a recommender algorithm to suggest map based content, but we reserve the right to do so in the future.
6. Complaints and Appeals
Complaints. You can report posts or users for violations of our rules using the in-app reporting tools or feedback form. If you are not a Bonventure user but are legally entitled to submit a report or takedown request, please email us at contact@thebonventure.com.
We will promptly notify users when we take enforcement action in response to a report.
Appeals. If your account has been suspended, terminated, or otherwise restricted under these Terms, you may appeal the decision using the in-app appeal tool or by emailing contact@thebonventure.com. Appeals must be well-founded and include sufficient information or documentation for us to conduct a meaningful review. Appeals must be filed within two weeks of the account suspension, termination, or restriction you seek to appeal. Appeals that lack supporting detail or that are not filed within two weeks may not be eligible for reconsideration.

Information about certified bodies—such as their areas of expertise, languages, and procedures—can be found via your national Digital Services Coordinator and the EU Commission's public list.

7. Termination
This agreement remains in effect until terminated by either you or Bonventure.
Your Right to Terminate. You may terminate your Account at any time by using the account deletion option in your settings.

8. Third-Party Services

10. Warranty Disclaimer
Bonventure and all Content and services provided through it are offered on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind—express, implied, or statutory. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, including:
Implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade;

THESE DISCLAIMERS APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. Nothing in this section limits or excludes any warranty or legal right that Bonventure is prohibited from disclaiming under the law.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Bonventure, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Bonventure Parties”) from and against any and all claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses—including reasonable legal and accounting fees—arising out of or in any way related to:
Your access to or use of Bonventure;
Your User Content;
Your violation of these Terms or any other applicable Bonventure policies;
Any actions you take through or in connection with our services; or
Your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.

12. Limitation of Liability
Excluded Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by law, and except for claims covered under the Exceptions to Exclusion below, Bonventure and its affiliates will not be liable for:
Indirect, special, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages—such as lost profits, business interruption, or loss of data;
Costs for substitute services;
Any third-party claims, including those arising from User Content.
All third-party claims are expressly excluded from Bonventure's liability, regardless of cause or theory of liability.
Exceptions to Exclusion. The exclusions in this Section do not apply to claims of death or personal injury based on:
Bonventure's fraud or criminal misconduct;
Gross negligence or willful misconduct by Bonventure;
Violations of statutory rights that cannot be contractually disclaimed under applicable law.
Monetary Cap. Except for claims falling within the Exceptions to Exclusion, Bonventure's total cumulative liability for all claims arising out of or related to these Terms—whether in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise—is limited to one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100).
Scope & Legal Validity. These limitations apply to the maximum extent allowed by law. If any jurisdiction limits or prohibits certain exclusions or limitations, those exclusions or limitations will apply to the extent allowed, and the remainder of this Section will remain enforceable.
13. Governing Law, Jurisdiction, Venue, Dispute Resolution, and Arbitration
Governing Law and Jurisdiction. These Terms and any disputes or claims arising out of or relating to them (including non-contractual disputes) are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
Jurisdiction and Venue. Except as otherwise provided in these Terms, any legal action that is not subject to arbitration must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Colorado. You and Bonventure consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts and waive any objections based on forum or convenience.
Mandatory Local Law Exception. If you reside in a jurisdiction that requires the application of its own local laws, courts, or other mandatory procedures for non-arbitral disputes—such as Brazil—then those mandatory provisions will apply instead of the Colorado governing law and venue provisions in this Section, but only to the extent required by applicable law.
Dispute Resolution and Arbitration.
Informal Resolution. Most disputes can be resolved informally. If you have an issue with the services, you agree to contact us first and allow us at least 60 days to resolve the dispute before initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. You can do this by contacting us at contact@thebonventure.com. In order for your informal resolution request to be valid and for us to respond, you must provide us with: your name, your email address, a statement that you are invoking the pre-arbitration informal dispute resolution process, the jurisdiction where you live (city and state, province, or county), your account handle, the specific amount of damages and/or other relief you are seeking, all supporting evidence in your possession that will help us resolve the dispute, links to or descriptions of the location of any evidence you know of but do not possess that will help us resolve the dispute, and whether you intend to pursue arbitration if we cannot resolve your dispute informally and, if so, what your claim will be in arbitration.
You agree that after you submit your informal resolution request, you will participate with us via telephone or videoconference, in a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally. If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference as well, but you agree to fully participate in the conference personally. Likewise, if we are represented by counsel, our counsel may participate in the conference, but we will have a company representative fully participate in the conference.
The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this paragraph. You agree that participating in the informal dispute resolution process described in this paragraph is a necessary pre-condition to filing an arbitration demand.
Mandatory, Mutual Arbitration of Disputes. If the Informal Resolution process listed above does not resolve your dispute, you agree that, subject only to the below carve-out and to the maximum extent permitted by local laws, you will resolve any dispute, disagreement, or claim relating to these Terms through final and binding arbitration by AAA (U.S.) or ICDR (UK/EU), seated in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we agree to a different location. Both parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement. Each party shall select one arbitrator; the pair appoint a third.
The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. To start arbitration, submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to Bonventure as specified in the AAA Rules.
Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. If we prevail in arbitration we'll pay all of our attorneys' fees and costs and won't seek to recover them from you, unless the arbitrator determines your claims were frivolous. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
Carve-Out for Safety Claims. Arbitration does not apply to claims that fraud, criminal misconduct, or gross negligence by Bonventure caused death or personal injury. Those matters may be brought in court or arbitration, at the claimant's choice, subject to these Terms.
Waiver of Class Actions. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND BONVENTURE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, OR REPRESENTATIVE IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
If any part of this Waiver of Representative Actions is found to be unenforceable, Section 13.D ("Dispute Resolution and Arbitration") shall be deemed void in its entirety.
Nothing in this section shall prohibit the AAA's consolidation of the administration of multiple claims pursuant to the AAA Rules.
Bonventure's Discretion to Consolidate. Notwithstanding the foregoing waiver, Bonventure may, at its sole discretion, elect to consolidate multiple arbitrations involving similar issues or claimants into a single consolidated arbitration or class-arbitration-like proceeding. Any such consolidation will occur only under the applicable AAA rules.
Small Claims and Injunctive Relief. This clause, "Dispute Resolution and Arbitration," does not restrict you from bringing eligible claims in small claims court. It also does not waive your statutory rights under the law of your country of residence.
To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim in arbitration and seek public injunctive relief (injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
Survival. This Section survives account Termination.
14. Updates to Terms
We may update these Terms periodically. We will always post the revised version here and we will notify you through the App, website, or other communication channel if we make any material changes.
It’s your responsibility to review the Terms regularly. By continuing to use Bonventure after any update, you agree to the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using Bonventure.
15. Intellectual Property
We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms. Bonventure is protected by trademark, copyright, patent and other laws of the United States and other countries.
Bonventure owns all applicable rights, title, interest in and to Bonventure, and all Intellectual Property Rights in it. Your use of the Bonventure app is subject to these Terms, and, unless explicitly provided, these Terms do not grant you any rights to our Intellectual Property Rights or the Intellectual Property Rights of our licensors, licensees, or partners.
For the purposes of these Terms, "Intellectual Property Rights" are all patent rights, copyright rights, mask work rights, moral rights, rights of publicity, trademark, trade dress and service mark rights, goodwill, trade secret rights, and other intellectual property rights that may exist now or come into existence in the future, and all of their applications, registrations, renewals and extensions, under the laws of any state, country, territory or other jurisdiction.
16. General Terms
Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the Bonventure Community Guidelines, and Privacy Policy, constitute the complete and exclusive agreement between you and Bonventure regarding your use of Bonventure. They supersede and replace any prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, or communications—whether oral or written—between you and Bonventure concerning the same subject matter.
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or court, it will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision will be severed from these Terms, and the remainder will continue in full force and effect.
Notices. We may provide notices to you by posting them in the Bonventure app or on our website, or by sending them by email or other communication methods based on the information associated with your account. By using Bonventure, you agree to receive communications from us electronically and acknowledge that all electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement for a written communication.
Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of our rights to enforce it later. To be effective, any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized Bonventure representative. The exercise of one right does not waive other rights or remedies unless explicitly stated.
Interpretation. These Terms shall be interpreted fairly and without bias to either party. As used in these Terms, the terms "including," "includes," "such as," and "for example" mean "without limitation."

18. Apple App Store and Google Play Required Terms
The Apple App Store and Google Play (each, an "App Provider") require us to tell you that the following additional terms apply if you download or access Bonventure through an App Provider:
These Terms are between you and Bonventure—not the App Provider. The App Provider has no responsibility for Bonventure or its content.
Bonventure is solely responsible for the App, including any claims, losses, liabilities, or expenses arising from its failure to meet any applicable warranties. If the App does not conform to a warranty, you may notify the App Provider—but, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the App Provider will have no further warranty obligations.
The App Provider is not obligated to provide maintenance or support services for the App.
The App Provider is not responsible for addressing any claims you or third parties may have in connection with the App, including product liability, legal compliance, or intellectual property infringement.
If a third party claims that your use of the App infringes their intellectual property rights, Bonventure—not the App Provider—is solely responsible for handling that claim under these Terms.
The App Provider and its affiliates are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them accordingly.
You must comply with all applicable third-party terms of service when using the Bonventure app.
