1. Using OpenCT
By creating an account, you agree to these terms.
- You must be 16 or older.
- Keep your phone number and login details secure.
- Use your real name and genuine profile photo.
- One account per person.
2. What You Can't Do
- Post hate speech, harassment, threats, explicit, or illegal content.
- Spam group chats or send unsolicited promotions.
- Attempt to hack, disrupt, or reverse-engineer the app.
- Create fake events, fake bookings, or impersonate others.
- Resell tickets at inflated prices.
3. Bookings & Payments
- Gatherings are run by independent hosts. Tickets are final once booked and the refund decision belongs to the host.
- Payments are processed securely via Cashfree. We don't store card/UPI details.
- If a gathering is cancelled in full by the host or by OpenCT, paid attendees receive a full refund of the ticket price.
- No-shows are not refunded. See our full Refund & Cancellation Policy for details.
4. Event Group Chats
- Every event creates an in-app group chat for booked attendees + organizers.
- Be kind. Be relevant. Keep conversations event-related.
- Admins can remove members who violate guidelines.
5. User Content
You own what you post. By posting in OpenCT, you grant us a license to display it to other users. We don't use your content for external advertising.
6. Account Deletion
You can delete your account anytime from Settings. Your profile stops being
visible, your posts are removed, you leave every event group chat, and you are
signed out on all devices straight away.
We keep the underlying account record after that. Bookings, payments and refunds
are attached to it and we need them for accounting, tax and resolving disputes.
If you want that record removed as well, email
support@openct.co and we will handle it
individually.
7. Service Availability
We work hard on uptime but can't guarantee 100%. We're not liable for missed events, lost messages, or other outage consequences.
8. Limitation of Liability
OpenCT connects you with third-party events. We are not responsible for event quality, safety, or conduct. Use common sense — public places, trusted friends, trust your instincts.
9. Changes to Terms
Significant updates announced in the app 7 days before taking effect.
