Effective Date: January 29, 2026

Overview

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Moterra mobile application ("the App", "Moterra", "we", "our", or "us"). By using Moterra, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

Please read these Terms carefully before using the App.

BETA PROJECT NOTICE

IMPORTANT: Please read carefully.

Moterra is currently a personal project in early beta testing. These Terms of Service serve as guidelines for beta participation, but you should be aware:

  • No formal legal entity: Moterra is not a registered company or legal entity. It is operated by Aaron Mennitto as a personal project with assistance from friends.
  • No legal review: These terms have not been reviewed or approved by legal counsel.
  • No registered IP: No copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights have been formally registered for Moterra. All rights mentioned are informal claims.
  • Limited enforceability: Without a formal legal entity, the enforceability of these terms may be limited. They serve as good-faith guidelines for respectful use of the app during beta testing.
  • No warranties: As a personal project, we provide no formal warranties, guarantees, or legal assurances beyond our best efforts.
  • Subject to change: As Moterra evolves from a personal project to a formal product, these terms will be updated and reviewed by legal professionals.

By participating in the beta, you acknowledge that this is an early-stage personal project and accept the informal nature of these terms.

If you have questions or concerns, please contact beta@moterra.app.
