Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-05-26

Use Garage Built to track and share your builds. Be cool to other people. Don't break laws. That's most of it.

Who can use the app

• You have to be at least 13. We block younger accounts.
• You sign in with an email + password, Google, or Apple. No phone numbers, no SMS.
• One account per person. Don't share logins.

What you can post

• Photos and videos of your builds, parts, performance results, events, and car spottings.
• Notes, tags, comments, reactions, and inspiration references.
• Crew names and crew content that you own or have permission to share.

What you can't post

• Spam, scams, or repetitive promotional content.
• Harassment, threats, hate speech, or content targeting people based on who they are.
• Impersonation of another rider, builder, brand, or moderator.
• Anything illegal — including stolen vehicles or stolen parts.
• Sexually explicit content, graphic violence, or anything you wouldn't post in a group chat with the entire community.
• Doxxing, leaked private info, or content that violates someone else's privacy.

If you post something that breaks these rules and it gets reported, we may remove it, suspend your account, or — for serious or repeated stuff — ban you. We try to surface why when we do.

Who owns what you post

You do. You keep ownership of every photo, video, comment, and build you create.

You grant Garage Built a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to display the content you post inside the app, on related web pages (the public sharing URLs at garagebuilt.app), and in features that surface your content to people who can already see it (crew feeds, search results, the Trending list, etc.). That license is so we can actually show your stuff to the people you're sharing it with.

If you delete your content or your account, that license ends — we hard-delete your stuff from our servers (see the Privacy Policy for details). The license doesn't cover anything outside the app: we never repurpose your photos for marketing, ads, or AI training.

Affiliate links

Some retailer links inside the app earn us a small commission when you make a purchase. Affiliate-tagged links are marked with an (affiliate) label, always. Other links pass through unmodified. The full disclosure lives at garagebuilt.app/legal/affiliate-disclosure.

Premium subscriptions

• Premium is an optional, auto-renewing subscription. You can cancel anytime from your App Store or Play Store account settings.
• Apple and Google handle the billing. Refund eligibility follows their standard policies — we can't override either one.
• If you cancel, you keep Premium access through the end of your current billing period.
• We don't store your card or bank details. Apple / Google handle that.

Account suspension and deletion

We may suspend or delete an account when:

• The owner posts repeated rule-breaking content.
• The owner harasses other users.
• We're legally required to (court order, valid law-enforcement request, etc.).

We may delete inactive accounts after a long period of inactivity — we'll email you first if we ever do this.

You can delete your own account anytime: Settings → Delete account. It's a hard delete with no grace period. All your data is purged.

Reporting content

Tap the Report affordance on any build, install, comment, profile, crew, event, spotting, or performance result. Reports go to our moderation queue. We don't tell the reported user who filed it.

Changes to these terms

We'll update the "Last updated" date above when we change something material. Your continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.

The legal small print

The app is provided "as is" — we work hard to keep it reliable but we can't promise zero downtime or zero bugs. To the extent the law allows, our liability for any claim related to the app is capped at the greater of \$100 or what you've paid us in the last 12 months.

You agree to handle disputes with us through informal resolution first (email [email protected]). If that doesn't resolve it, disputes go to a court of competent jurisdiction in the US.

These terms don't waive any rights you have under consumer protection laws that can't be waived (e.g., GDPR rights in the EU, CCPA rights in California).
