Ahgoo acts solely as a platform facilitator and does not guarantee or take responsibility for the completion, accuracy, or legitimacy of P2P payments between users. All transactions are final, and disputes must be resolved between the sending and receiving parties. However, users may report unauthorized transactions, and Ahgoo may cooperate with Stripe and relevant authorities to investigate fraudulent activity.

4. Chargebacks, Disputes & Refunds

All P2P transactions are considered non-refundable, except where required by law. In cases of disputed transactions, users must contact Stripe’s dispute resolution services.

5. Account Verification & Security

To comply with financial regulations, Ahgoo and Stripe may require users to complete Know Your Customer (KYC) verification. This may include identity verification, linking a valid payment method, and providing additional documentation as needed.

3. Privacy & Encryption

Ahgoo prioritizes user privacy and implements end-to-end encryption for chat communications where applicable. However, users should be aware that:

· Ahgoo does not guarantee complete confidentiality of messages and reserves the right to comply with lawful data requests from authorities in accordance with applicable laws.

· Users are responsible for their own privacy settings and should exercise caution when sharing sensitive information.

· Third-party integrations (e.g., sharing Stripe transactions or external links) within the chat module are governed by those platforms’ policies, and Ahgoo assumes no responsibility for external content.

4. Content Sharing & Intellectual Property

By sharing content within the chat module (e.g., videos, images, audio files), you retain ownership of your intellectual property but grant Ahgoo a limited license to store, transmit, and display such content as necessary for the functionality of the chat service.

You must ensure that any shared content:

· Does not infringe on copyrights, trademarks, or other IP rights.

· Is legally permitted to be shared under applicable laws and regulations.

· Does not contain confidential or proprietary information that you do not have permission to distribute.

Ahgoo is not responsible for user-generated content and assumes no liability for any damages resulting from content shared in chat.

5. Data Retention & Reporting Abuse

· Ahgoo may retain chat data for a limited period as outlined in our Privacy Policy, except where required by law.

· Users can report harmful or illegal behavior in chat, and Ahgoo may take action, including content removal, user suspension, or legal escalation.

· If you receive unwanted or abusive messages, you may block, mute, or report users directly within the app.

6. No Liability for Third-Party Interactions

Ahgoo does not mediate disputes arising from interactions within the chat module. Users engage at their own risk, and Ahgoo is not liable for any harm, financial loss, or damages resulting from conversations, shared content, or external links exchanged via chat.

17. Events Module: Free & Paid Events (In-App & Real-World)

1. Overview of the Events Feature

Ahgoo enables users to discover, create, and participate in live virtual events within the app and real-world external events organized by individuals, businesses, or Ahgoo itself. Events can be free or paid, and transactions for paid events are processed through Stripe, our third-party payment processor.

By using Ahgoo’s Events feature, you acknowledge that Ahgoo acts only as a platform facilitator and does not own, manage, or assume liability for user-created events, unless explicitly stated otherwise for Ahgoo-sponsored events.

2. Event Organizers & User Responsibilities

Users who create and host events ("Event Organizers") are solely responsible for:

· Ensuring compliance with local laws, permits, and venue regulations for real-world events.

· Accurately describing event details, ticket prices, and refund policies.

· Managing event logistics, attendee safety, and dispute resolution.

· Complying with Ahgoo’s Community Guidelines and event content policies.

Attendees and participants are responsible for:

· Reviewing event details before purchasing tickets or attending.

· Following event rules, local laws, and any organizer-imposed guidelines.

· Exercising personal judgment when attending real-world events.

Ahgoo does not vet, endorse, or guarantee any user-organized events and is not liable for damages, accidents, or disputes between organizers and attendees.

3. Paid Events & Payment Processing

· All payments for paid events are processed through Stripe. Ahgoo does not store or process payment information.

· Event Organizers agree to Stripe’s terms and are responsible for payment disputes, chargebacks, and refunds.

· Ahgoo may charge a service fee on ticket sales, which is non-refundable except where required by law.

Refund policies for paid events must be clearly stated by the Event Organizer. Ahgoo is not responsible for issuing refunds unless the event is officially hosted by Ahgoo.

4. Event Cancellations, No-Shows & Disputes

· Cancellations: If an event is canceled, it is the Event Organizer’s responsibility to issue refunds where applicable.

· No-shows: Attendees who fail to attend an event are not entitled to refunds unless explicitly stated in the event’s refund policy.

· Disputes: Ahgoo does not mediate disputes between organizers and attendees, but it may suspend accounts engaging in fraudulent event listings.

5. Liability & Risk Assumption

By attending or hosting events, you acknowledge that:

· Participation in both in-app and real-world events is at your own risk.

· Ahgoo is not responsible for personal injury, property damage, or any unforeseen incidents.

· Ahgoo does not verify the credibility of event organizers or attendees and encourages users to exercise caution.

For real-world events, you agree to comply with local health, safety, and security regulations, including any COVID-19 or public safety measures imposed by authorities.

6. Prohibited Event Activities

Ahgoo prohibits events that involve:

· Illegal activities, discrimination, violence, or hate speech.

· Scams, fraudulent ticketing, or misrepresentation of event details.

· Gambling, unauthorized fundraising, or unlicensed financial activities.

· Adult content, explicit material, or events that violate public decency laws.

Events violating these rules may be removed, and organizers may be banned or reported to law enforcement where necessary.

7. Data & Privacy for In-App Events

For virtual in-app events, Ahgoo may record, store, or analyze engagement metrics to improve user experience. Organizers must inform attendees if sessions are recorded and comply with privacy laws such as GDPR (Europe), CCPA (California), and PIPEDA (Canada).

18. Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from these Terms will be resolved through binding arbitration rather than litigation. By using the Services, you waive the right to participate in class-action lawsuits. The governing law for arbitration shall be the jurisdiction of State of Delaware. Users must attempt to resolve disputes through Ahgoo’s internal dispute resolution process before initiating arbitration.

19. Termination and Suspension

Ahgoo reserves the right to suspend or terminate user accounts without prior notice if users violate these Terms. Users may request account deletion, but some data may be retained in accordance with legal requirements.
