ANY DECISION BY A USER TO OFFER OR ACCEPT TRANSPORTATION ONCE SUCH USER IS MATCHED THROUGH HITCHMAN IS A DECISION MADE IN SUCH USER'S SOLE DISCRETION AND AT THAT USER’S SOLE RISK. HITCHMAN OFFERS INFORMATION AND A METHOD TO CONNECT DRIVERS AND RIDERS WITH EACH OTHER, BUT DOES NOT AND DOES NOT INTEND TO PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION SERVICES OR ACT IN ANY MANNER AS A TRANSPORTATION CARRIER, AND HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY TRANSPORTATION SERVICES VOLUNTARILY PROVIDED TO ANY RIDER BY ANY DRIVER USING HITCHMAN.

IT IS SOLELY YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO DETERMINE IF A DRIVER OR RIDER WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS. HITCHMAN WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND A DRIVER OR RIDER. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU MAY BE EXPOSED TO SITUATIONS INVOLVING DRIVERS OR RIDERS THAT ARE POTENTIALLY UNSAFE, OFFENSIVE, HARMFUL TO MINORS, OR OTHERWISE OBJECTIONABLE, AND THAT USE OF DRIVERS OR RIDERS ARRANGED OR SCHEDULED USING THE SERVICES IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK AND JUDGMENT.

HITCHMAN SHALL NOT HAVE ANY LIABILITY, RESPONSIBILITY, OR OBLIGATION ARISING FROM OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO YOUR TRANSACTIONS OR RELATIONSHIP WITH DRIVERS OR RIDERS AND/OR ANY RIDES OR TRIPS YOU TAKE IN CONNECTION WITH HITCHMAN’S SERVICES.

2.3 Access to the services

To avail of and use the services you will have to provide information about yourself as required by HITCHMAN for the registration process for the use of the services. You agree to provide us with complete, correct, accurate information and to maintain and update this information as required to keep it current, complete and accurate. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete or HITCHMAN has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete; HITCHMAN has the right to indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership without assigning any reasons and refuse to provide you with access to HITCHMAN and its services. HITCHMAN can share customer/member information with employees and agents, with any company which you acquire / acquires you, to the Government or law enforcement agencies (if officially requested or required by order, Notification, Statute of the Court) and with anyone else, with the consent of the customer.

2.4 Non-commercial Use

You agree to use HITCHMAN solely for personal, ridesharing purposes only, and shall not use HITCHMAN for any commercial or profit making purposes. In particular, a user should only give rides to passengers when the ride is incidental to the purpose of their trip. Although HITCHMAN cannot offer legal advice or opinions, it reserves the right to restrict or terminate users if it has a reasonable belief that the Service is being used for commercial purposes. You agree that you will not use the services in any such manner which is inconsistent with all applicable laws and regulations. You will not use the website or mobile application to perform any illegal or illegitimate activities and shall not you aid any third party to carry on such illegal activities through this website or its services.

2.5 Payment Policy

Hitchman follows no refund policy i.e. any fees charged to the Users by website for the Services provided are due immediately and are non-refundable. This no refund policy shall apply at all times regardless of (i) Your decision to terminate your usage, (ii) Our decision to terminate your usage, (iii) disruption caused to our Services either planned, accidental or intentional, or (iv) any other reason whatsoever. Hitchman, at its sole discretion, may provide customized offers to each customer i.e. varied promotional offers with different features at customized rates would be charged to different users. These promotional offers, unless made to you shall have no bearing whatsoever on your offer or contract.

You understand and agree that use of the Services as a Rider may require you to pay a reimbursement of a portion of the costs incurred by a Driver (“Reimbursement”). You agree that you will remit such Reimbursement solely and directly to Hitchman, not to a Driver unless otherwise determined by Hitchman. You further agree that you shall neither give a Driver, nor accept when serving as a Driver, Reimbursement in excess of the costs the Driver incurred for the particular trip in which you participated. After you have received services obtained through your use of the Service, Hitchman will facilitate payment of the applicable Reimbursement on behalf of the Driver, as such Driver’s limited Reimbursement collection agent, using the preferred payment method designated in your account. Payment of the Reimbursement in such a manner shall be considered the same as a Reimbursement made directly by you to the Driver. Reimbursements will be inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Reimbursements paid by you are final and nonrefundable, unless otherwise determined by Hitchman.

All Reimbursements are due immediately and payment will be facilitated by Hitchman using the preferred payment method designated in your account. If your primary account payment method is determined to be expired, invalid or otherwise not able to be charged, you agree that Hitchman may, as the Driver’s limited Reimbursement collection agent, use a secondary payment method in your account, if available.

Hitchman reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise Reimbursements for any or all aspects of the Services at any time in Hitchman’s sole discretion. Hitchman may from time to time provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different Reimbursements for the same or similar Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Reimbursements applied to you. You may elect to cancel your request for Services from a Driver at any time. If you elect to cancel your request for Services from a Driver after the Driver arrives, you will be charged for all or a portion of the Driver’s Reimbursement. Even if you elect to cancel your request for Services from a Driver prior to such Driver’s arrival, you may still be charged for all or a portion of the Driver’s Reimbursement, depending on when you cancel. Hitchman may also impose a charge for delay which will also be applicable on all the Riders and the Driver if they do not arrive or pick up during the specified time period

2.6 Carpool Rules

Since all drivers are independent third party users and are not employees of Hitchman, we do not guarantee any service quality or experience. You can choose to request change to other drivers or not use the service. You are also bound to follow any carpool rules mentioned on the websites or in terms of conditions. Some basic carpool rules, but not only limited to the following, are as follows:

- You are not allowed to talk to the driver or rider/riders in the carpool to respect their privacy and not cause any argument or disturbances

- You are not allowed to talk on phone during the ride. You can send a text message or chat message, only if you are a rider

- If you are a driver you can play the music or radio channel of your choice but at a reasonable volume level as agreed by all riders in the car

- If you are using your mobile for a game or any other purpose, make sure the volume is silent and doesn’t disturb other riders and driver in the car

- Do not take contact information from riders or driver unless allowed by the application. Do not contact the riders or driver unless it is necessary to assist in the pick up or drop off for the carpool

- The driver will be the main decision maker when it comes to the pick-up and drop-off points and timings

If you don’t agree with the carpool rules, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the carpool rules is effective, that means you agree to be bound by the carpool rules in effect at the time of such use.

HITCHMAN has the right to indefinitely suspend or terminate your membership if you do not follow the carpool rules
