Terms of Service - Stretko

Last updated: September 28, 2026

1. Introduction

These terms govern the use of the Stretko application (formerly "Joinly"), operated by Marcel Šoták (the "operator" or "we"). By registering or using the app, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.

2. Description of Service

Stretko is an app for discovering and organizing nearby events. It lets you create your own events, join events created by others, chat with participants, add friends, and it also shows public events from external sources (e.g. Ticketmaster, public event calendars). The app is free and contains ads.

3. Age and Account

The app may only be used by people aged 16 and older. You confirm this when registering. Accounts of younger people will be deleted.
Most features require registration (email and password or a Google account).
Provide truthful information. Do not impersonate anyone else.
You are responsible for keeping your password safe and for all activity on your account.
One person may have only one account. Do not create accounts to get around a suspension or to mass-report others.

4. Content and Conduct Rules

You must not create, upload or send content that:

is illegal or promotes illegal activity (e.g. drugs, weapons, fraud, selling fake tickets),
is sexually explicit, vulgar, violent or depicts self-harm,
spreads hate, discrimination, harassment, bullying or threats,
violates the privacy of others (e.g. publishing someone's personal data or photos without consent),
infringes copyrights or trademarks,
is spam, advertising or a fake event that is not actually taking place.

You also must not:

misuse the app, circumvent its security, scrape data or interfere with its operation,
abuse the reporting system (false or coordinated reports),
repeatedly join events and not show up.

5. Moderation and Reporting Illegal Content

In accordance with the EU Digital Services Act (DSA), you can report content you believe is illegal or violates these terms:

In the app: using the report button on an event, profile or message (choose a reason).
By email: to marcel.sotak123@gmail.com with the subject "Content report". Describe the content (event title, user name, a screenshot if possible), explain why you consider it illegal, and include your name and email (except for reports of child sexual abuse material, which may be anonymous).

This email is also our single point of contact for users and authorities under the DSA. You can communicate with us in Slovak, Czech or English.

How we handle reports:

We actually remove reported content if it breaks the law or these terms. Email reports are reviewed without undue delay, usually within 7 days.
Content reported by 3 different users is removed automatically (event, message) or the account is suspended, and we then review it.
Texts and images also pass automated checks (Google Cloud Vision and Natural Language API and our own word filter), which may reject content before it is published.
If we remove your content or restrict your account, you will be told the reason (in the app or by email).
You can appeal a decision by email within 6 months. The appeal is reviewed by a human, not automatically.
Content that threatens someone's life or safety is reported to law enforcement.

6. Suspension and Account Termination

If you break these terms, we may remove content and suspend your account temporarily or permanently.
An account is suspended automatically after 3 confirmed reports or after 3 no-shows at events within 30 days.
You can delete your account at any time in the app (Settings → Delete account) or via a web request. What gets deleted is described in the Privacy Policy.

7. User-Created Events

The content, organization and safety of an event is the responsibility of its creator, not the app operator.
Be careful when meeting people you don't know – preferably in public places.
We do not guarantee that any event (including events from external sources) will take place, nor its quality or safety.
Tickets are purchased outside the app (e.g. via Ticketmaster). Stretko does not process payments and is not responsible for them.

8. Intellectual Property

The app's design, logo and source code belong to the operator. Content you upload (photos, descriptions) remains yours. By uploading it, you grant us a free, non-exclusive license to display it within the app until you delete it. Only upload content you have the rights to.

9. Limitation of Liability

The app is provided "as is", without warranty of uninterrupted or error-free operation. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for damages arising from use of the app or from attending events found through it. This does not affect consumer rights that cannot be excluded by contract.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms. We will inform you of material changes within the app. By continuing to use the app after a change, you agree to the updated terms.

11. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Slovak Republic. Consumers from other EU countries keep the protection of the laws of their own country.
