A shared plan. An informed yes.
Booking risk acknowledgment and limited release · Draft version 2026-11-13-draft-1. Each party signs separately for each booking. This is not a guarantee against risk or a waiver of non-waivable rights.
Local pilot draft · Version 2026-11-13-draft-1. Legal and operational review is required before public transactions.
1. The agreement you are signing
By entering your full account name and affirmatively accepting, you agree electronically to this version and the booking’s saved activity, venue, date, duration, expense plan, spending cap, price, commission where applicable, and cancellation rules. BorrowAPal records your account ID, typed name, role, booking ID, policy version, timestamp, and the agreed booking details. You can view those details in the booking. A typed signature is not identity verification.
2. Eligibility and boundaries
You confirm you are 18 or older, choose to participate voluntarily, can consent to this plan, and will follow the Community Guidelines and venue rules. Participation is strictly platonic and in a public place. No intimate services, labor, caregiving, transportation by Pals, unlawful activity, or prohibited conduct is included. Either person may stop participating for safety or comfort.
3. Acknowledgment of ordinary risks
Meeting another person and attending an activity can involve misunderstandings, offensive conduct, travel or venue incidents, illness, property loss, and physical injury. Choose suitable activities and take reasonable precautions. You are responsible for your own travel, personal decisions, and possessions. Do not participate in an activity you cannot safely undertake. Identity screening does not eliminate these risks.
4. Limited release, where lawful
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you release the platform operator and its personnel from claims arising solely from ordinary risks you knowingly and voluntarily assume in the agreed activity, or another member’s independent conduct outside the platform’s control. This limited release does not excuse the operator’s own non-waivable duties and does not release fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct, unlawful conduct, or rights that applicable law does not permit you to waive. It is not a release of another participant’s intentional harm.
5. Rights you keep
Nothing here excludes liability where exclusion is prohibited, prevents contacting regulators or law enforcement, limits legally protected consumer or privacy rights, or requires silence about harassment or assault. New York and California impose restrictions on releases; enforceability depends on the facts and jurisdiction. Any invalid provision is limited only as law allows, without removing protections from the rest of this agreement.
6. Expenses, cancellation, and consent
The buyer covers the Pal’s agreed activity costs up to the recorded cap and pays the venue directly. No participant must approve a change or spend more. Cancellation and refunds follow the Booking Policy, subject to safety review and mandatory law. Leaving an unsafe situation is always allowed.
7. Get help or keep a copy
The booking page displays the plan and signature status; account export includes your agreement records. Use Help & reporting for concerns. In an immediate emergency call 911. Before launch, the operator’s legal name, address, live support contact, insurance arrangements, and jurisdiction-specific legal review must be finalized. No public transaction may rely on this draft as legal clearance.
