Terms of use

Working draft dated 9 September 2026. Reconciled with application corrections. Unpublished, not yet in force. Legal and operational validation required: admission of 16- and 17-year-olds, map provider terms, identity and complete operational information remain to be resolved before publication.

Article 1. Publisher and purpose

Foulevo is a service published by Tristan MURAT, a sole trader (entrepreneur individuel, EI), trading as Tristanovate Solutions, registered in the Registre national des entreprises under SIREN number 925 380 586, SIRET 925 380 586 00014, with business address at Plan Villard, 73600 Moûtiers, France, hereinafter 'Foulevo' or 'the Publisher'.

Publication director and contact person: Tristan MURAT. Contact address: contact@foulevo.com. Service domain name: foulevo.com.

These general terms of use, hereinafter the 'Terms of Use', define the conditions for access to and use of the Foulevo application and the features of its website. They govern the relationship between the Publisher and any person using the service, hereinafter the 'User'.

Foulevo facilitates meeting people and organising running, trail running, hiking and fitness walking outings. Community features, profiles, groups and conversations support this purpose. The initial launch scope is France. A feature announced as forthcoming is available only once it has actually been activated.

The privacy policy, community rules and account deletion page supplement the information provided to the User. Accepting the Terms of Use does not constitute consent to personalised advertising, optional audience measurement, a newsletter or promotional use of their image.

Article 2. Access and acceptance

The documents are accessible from the application. Their complete version is being prepared for consultation on the website; this public availability must be confirmed before they enter into force. Creating an account requires accepting them through an affirmative action. The accepted version and date of acceptance are retained as evidence.

Access to profiles, outings and community spaces requires authentication. Legal information pages and the means to request deletion from the website remain accessible without an account.

The User has a compatible device and internet access. Equipment and communication charges billed by their own providers remain their responsibility.

Article 3. Age and personal account

The current flow sets a minimum age of 16. Effective access for 16- and 17-year-olds remains subject to validation of safeguards, terms applicable to minors and the map provider. The User supplies an accurate date of birth; this date is not intended to be published. This age limit is neither identity verification nor a guarantee that people encountered are adults.

A minor User uses the service in compliance with the rules on their legal capacity and parental authority. They obtain their legal representative's agreement where necessary, particularly to take part in an activity beyond ordinary acts appropriate to their age. Organisers take the presence of minors and the outing's specific conditions into account. Foulevo does not offer childcare, supervision or accompaniment services for minors.

The account is personal. The User provides truthful information, keeps relevant information up to date, protects their authentication methods and notifies Foulevo of suspicious access. They must not impersonate a third party, circumvent a suspension or share credentials giving access to other people's data.

The login methods offered are those actually available in the application. Using a third-party login provider does not authorise Foulevo to freely access other data held by that provider.

Article 4. Free access and advertising

Use of the test version's community features is free. Foulevo offers neither a paid subscription nor sales of sporting activities, and receives no commission on outings.

No AdMob, Unity LevelPlay or AppLovin MAX advertising SDK is integrated in this version. There is no advertising system to accept to access the current features. Any future advertising integration must be described and assessed before activation; these Terms of Use do not constitute agreement to unspecified future processing.

Any future paid offering will be accompanied by advance information on its price and terms, and express agreement before billing.

Article 5. Organising and taking part in outings

Each outing has an identified organiser. They carefully describe the useful details: activity, date, time, distance or duration where known, difficulty, meeting point, equipment and stated constraints. They indicate relevant uncertainties and inform admitted participants of significant changes or a cancellation.

The organiser chooses the available admission arrangements and applies them without unlawful or discriminatory behaviour. Sending a request does not constitute admission where approval is required. Visibility and admission rules must not be circumvented.

Each participant assesses whether the outing is compatible with their abilities, condition, equipment and the outdoor conditions. They consult the organiser's information, comply with local regulations and retain the option to withdraw or stop. Foulevo's level indicators and suggestions are aids, not medical expertise, sports certification or a safety guarantee.

Users respect other participants, places and the environment. They give notice when they can no longer participate. No obligation requires them to exceed their abilities or continue an activity they consider dangerous.

Paid activities and requests for payment to access outings are not part of the launch offering. A person may not present an activity as a service sold by Foulevo when it is not.

Article 6. Foulevo's role and the Publisher's outings

For an outing independently created by a User, Foulevo provides tools for connecting people and organising it. This alone does not make Foulevo the outing's actual organiser, a professional guide or an emergency service.

Tristan MURAT or Foulevo may also organise their own outings. In this case, their organiser status is stated and their obligations are assessed according to their actual role. These Terms of Use do not allow the Publisher to evade responsibilities attached to an activity it organises itself.

Registering with Foulevo and admission to an outing do not include an insurance contract taken out by Foulevo for participants' benefit. Each person checks the coverage they have for their activity. Insurance obligations legally applicable to an activity or its organiser remain fully applicable.

Foulevo provides no continuous supervision of participants, rescue monitoring or guarantee of intervention in the field. In an emergency, contact the appropriate emergency services, including 112 in the European Union, and do not wait for a support response.

Article 7. Community and communications

Posts, comments, photos and messages must respect the law, human dignity and third-party rights. Prohibited conduct includes harassment, threats, unlawful hateful or discriminatory content, sexual exploitation, sexual content involving minors, fraud, impersonation, unauthorised disclosure of private data, spam and incitement to endangerment.

The User does not publish a photo, private message, voice recording or information concerning a third party without the necessary rights and authorisations. They do not disclose the precise location of a meeting point restricted to admitted participants.

Discussion spaces are not intended for unsolicited commercial prospecting. A block, refusal of contact or exclusion from a group must be respected. Using multiple accounts to circumvent this choice is prohibited.

Reviews concern the outing and its organisation, not ratings of people. Thank-yous or recommendations intended for a profile respect the recipient's choice. The audience chosen for a summary does not authorise publishing a memory or thank-you elsewhere.

Group administrators perform the functions assigned to them in accordance with these Terms of Use. Their role does not grant them general access to private conversations or confidential data.

Article 8. Rights in content and brand identity

The User retains the rights they hold in their content. To provide the service, they authorise Foulevo, on a non-exclusive and free basis, to host, technically reproduce, display and transmit this content to recipients authorised by their visibility choices, and to make necessary technical adaptations, such as resizing or compression.

This authorisation is limited to the service's needs and to the period during which the content is retained there in accordance with the privacy policy. Service providers' technical operations necessary for the service fall within this scope. It entails neither a transfer of ownership nor a general right to market the content.

Using a User's photo, voice or testimonial in advertising, on Foulevo's social networks or in other promotional communications requires separate agreement specifying the content, media, purpose and duration. Silence or inability to contact a person does not constitute permission. The author's rights and the rights of identifiable people are considered separately; necessary authorisations from legal representatives are obtained for minors.

Foulevo's brand elements, texts, software, illustrations and sound creations are protected to the extent of the rights actually held by the Publisher or its licensors. Their presence in the service does not authorise commercial reuse that is not permitted by law or by the rights holder.

The Vive mascot and brand content may be created or interpreted using artificial intelligence tools. This use does not authorise training a model on Users' personal messages, photos or recordings. Promotional content must not present a synthetic person as a real User giving an authentic testimonial.

Article 9. Reporting and moderation

Content or behaviour can be reported using the feature provided in the application or to contact@foulevo.com, which also serves as the electronic contact point for moderation matters. Communications may be conducted in French.

To facilitate examination, the report specifies, as far as possible, the content concerned, its location or identifier, the reasons for reporting, useful evidence and a reply method. For a notice of allegedly illegal content, the reporter states that they believe in good faith that the information is accurate and complete. Legal exceptions to the requirement for the reporter's contact details are respected. It is not necessary to publicly share the reported content.

Reports are examined diligently, objectively and proportionately. Foulevo may ask for clarification, retain necessary evidence with restricted access and take an interim protective measure where the situation warrants it. There is no permanent human monitoring of all conversations.

Where a contact method is provided, Foulevo acknowledges receipt of the report without undue delay and informs the reporter of the decision taken and applicable avenues of appeal. This handling is distinct from the general support response commitment alone.

Depending on the seriousness, context, repetition and consequences of the breach, Foulevo may issue a warning, request a correction, remove or limit the visibility of content, restrict a feature, temporarily suspend an account or terminate its access. A serious or urgent measure may be taken without prior warning; sanctions therefore do not necessarily follow this order.

Where required by law, a restriction decision is accompanied by a statement of reasons indicating, in particular, the relevant facts, legal or contractual basis, scope and duration of the measure, and opportunities to challenge it. The reporter's confidentiality and legal restrictions on disclosure are preserved.

The User may request a review free of charge at contact@foulevo.com, identifying the challenged decision and their observations. The challenge is examined by a human; an unjustified measure is corrected. This remedy does not deprive the User of remedies provided by law or recourse to a competent court. Legally grounded requests from authorities are handled in accordance with the applicable provisions.

Article 10. Support and response timeframes

Support is provided by Tristan MURAT and can be reached at contact@foulevo.com or through support features actually available in the application. Support is not an emergency service. This working draft announces no firm timeframe for an initial response or resolution.

An initial response may ask for clarification or explain the processing steps. Statutory timeframes for exercising rights and diligence obligations specific to certain situations remain applicable.

Article 11. Availability and liability

The Publisher takes reasonable measures to ensure the service's operation and security. Interruptions may occur, in particular for maintenance, correction, incidents or a provider's unavailability. Useful information is communicated where possible.

Foulevo does not guarantee that an outing, group or person will meet each User's expectations or that information declared by another User will always be accurate. These limitations do not release the Publisher from its legal obligations, contractual commitments or diligent handling of reports brought to its attention.

Each party is liable for the consequences of its faults under the applicable law. No clause excludes or limits consumers' mandatory rights, liability that cannot legally be excluded, or Foulevo's obligations when it acts as an organiser itself.

Where the French Consumer Code's rules on contracts for the supply of digital services apply, the User benefits from the statutory guarantee of conformity throughout the period of continuous service provision. Foulevo provides the updates necessary to maintain this conformity, including security updates, under the statutory conditions. In the event of a defect, the User may request conformity to be restored free of charge and, where the legal conditions are met, the other remedies provided by the Code, including termination of the contract. A complaint can be sent to contact@foulevo.com. The regulatory box corresponding to the chosen scope of supply must supplement this version before publication if these rules apply.

Article 12. Account closure

The User can request deletion of their account free of charge from the dedicated section of the application or by the method described on the deletion page, including by email if they no longer have access to the application. Uninstalling the application does not delete the account.

Closure ends access to the account and leads to processing of the associated data under the privacy policy. The request must not be prevented solely because the User administers a group or outing. Any necessary organisational measures are handled without keeping the account indefinitely.

There is no plan to delete an account automatically solely because of a period of inactivity. This operating rule does not permit indefinite retention of data that is no longer useful; retention and review criteria are set out in the privacy policy.

Article 13. Changes to the terms

The Terms of Use may change to reflect the service, its organisation or regulations. The version date is indicated and significant changes are communicated to Users with reasonable notice, unless a legal obligation, security or another reason justifies faster application.

A change does not retroactively remove acquired rights. Where its nature requires new acceptance or new consent, these are obtained separately. A User who no longer wishes to use the service can close their account.

Functional changes distinct from updates necessary for conformity may be motivated by adaptation to new compatible systems, improvement of user flows or changes to how the service's features are organised. Where they fall under Article L224-25-26 of the French Consumer Code (Code de la consommation), they are offered at no extra cost and are subject to clear advance information on a durable medium specifying their date. If they negatively affect access or use, the User is informed of their right to refuse or uninstall them where relevant, and of termination free of charge under the statutory conditions and timeframes, subject in particular to the impact being only minor or an offer to keep a conforming version without the modification.

Article 14. Applicable law and disputes

These Terms of Use are governed by French law, without depriving a consumer of the mandatory protections they enjoy under the applicable law.

A complaint can be sent to contact@foulevo.com to seek an amicable solution. Where consumer mediation provisions apply, the User benefits from this remedy under the statutory conditions. The competent mediator's identity and contact details must be added before publication if this scheme applies to the service; no mediator is designated in this draft.

If no amicable solution is reached, the competent courts are determined under the applicable statutory rules. These Terms of Use do not impose exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at the Publisher's registered office to the detriment of consumer rights.
