Last Updated:

Please read these Terms and Conditions ("Terms", "Terms and Conditions") carefully before using the WorkRideAlong application (the "Service") operated by WorkRideAlong ("us", "we", or "our").

Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned upon your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who wish to access or use the Service.

By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the terms then you do not have permission to access the Service.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet these eligibility requirements.

2. Service Description

WorkRideAlong provides a platform to connect drivers offering rides ("Drivers") with passengers seeking rides ("Passengers") for the purpose of carpooling, primarily for commuting. We are a platform provider only and are not a transportation carrier. We do not employ Drivers, and we are not responsible for the conduct of any user of the Service.

3. User Accounts

• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, including but not limited to the restriction of access to your computer and/or account. You agree to accept responsibility for any and all activities or actions that occur under your account and/or password.
• You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.

4. Driver Responsibilities

If you use the Service as a Driver, you represent, warrant, and agree that:

• You possess a valid driver's license and are authorized to operate a motor vehicle.

6. Payments and Cost Sharing

WorkRideAlong facilitates the connection between Drivers and Passengers but does not process payments for rides. Drivers may suggest a cost contribution for each ride.
