TORQ
Terms of Use
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and BrilliantZero Technologies Private Limited (“BrilliantZero,” “TORQ,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and govern your use of the TORQ iOS application, the TORQ website, and related services (collectively, the “Services”). By installing, accessing, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms.
Effective date: 21 September 2026 · Last updated: 21 September 2026
By creating an account, installing TORQ, or otherwise using the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Services. You may be asked to affirmatively accept these Terms during onboarding.
You may use the Services only if all of the following are true:
TORQ is a social driving app. It uses sensors on your mobile device — including GPS — to record and present information about your drives (route, distance, duration, and related stats), and lets you build a digital garage, follow friends, view rankings and achievements, and share cards. Features may include manual start/end recording and optional automatic drive detection depending on your settings and permissions.
We may add, remove, modify, or replace features at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary disruption, but we do not promise that any particular feature will remain available.
To use most features, you must create an account using a supported sign-in method (for example email, Sign in with Apple, or Google). You agree to provide accurate information and keep it current. You are responsible for all activity under your account and for safeguarding your sign-in methods. Usernames must be unique; we may reclaim or reset usernames to address impersonation, trademark issues, or extended inactivity. You may not maintain more than one personal account or share your account with another person.
You agree that you will not, and will not attempt to or assist any third party to:
We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account or access, with or without notice, if we determine in good faith that you have violated these Terms or applicable law, or to protect TORQ, our users, or third parties.
TORQ is not a racing app. Do not use TORQ in a way that encourages dangerous driving, street racing, or breaking traffic laws. Never interact with your phone while driving — pull over first. You are solely responsible for how you drive.
We do not design features that reward dangerous street speed. There is no “fastest nearby,” live street racing, or public speed leaderboard for open roads. Performance records are personal unless a future closed-course or expressly disclosed context applies.
“User Content” means data, photographs, vehicle information, drive recordings, route data, comments, usernames, profile information, and other materials you submit to, generate within, or upload to the Services.
You retain ownership of your User Content and are responsible for it. You represent that you have all rights needed to grant the licenses below and that your User Content does not infringe third-party rights.
You grant BrilliantZero a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, display, adapt, and otherwise use your User Content to operate, secure, and improve the Services; conduct internal analytics and product development on aggregated or de-identified data; and promote TORQ in de-identified or aggregated form, or in identifiable form only with your additional consent. This license exists so we can run TORQ for you. As stated in our Privacy Policy, we do not sell your data.
Drive data — including route, distance, duration, derived metrics, and vehicle associations — is subject to the license in Section 7 and handled as described in our Privacy Policy. We use that data to operate and improve TORQ. We do not sell drive or vehicle data.
The Services, including software, interfaces, designs, logos, trademarks, text, graphics, and the selection and arrangement thereof (the “TORQ Materials”), are owned by BrilliantZero or its licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your personal, non-commercial use. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
TORQ relies on third-party platforms and services, including Apple iOS and Apple services, Google sign-in (where used), Supabase, PostHog, and Sentry. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the acts or omissions of those third parties.
The following terms apply to your use of TORQ as distributed through the Apple App Store. In the event of conflict with Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement, the more restrictive terms apply with respect to App Store distribution.
TORQ may be offered free of charge, with optional paid features (such as TORQ Pro) in the future. If we introduce paid features, subscriptions, or in-app purchases, additional terms (including pricing, billing, renewal, and cancellation) will be presented at the point of purchase and incorporated into these Terms upon acceptance. Purchases made through the App Store are also subject to Apple’s payment and refund rules.
You may terminate these Terms at any time by deleting your account in the app or contacting support. BrilliantZero may terminate or suspend your account or access at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice, including if we believe you have violated these Terms or that termination is necessary to protect TORQ, our users, or third parties.
Upon termination, your license to use the Services ends immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive (including licenses already granted for aggregated/de-identified data, IP, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and disputes) will survive. Retention and deletion are governed by the Privacy Policy.
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BRILLIANTZERO AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
Without limiting the foregoing, we do not warrant that TORQ will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free; that drive detection, routes, distance, speed, rankings, or generated media will be accurate or reliable; or that TORQ will meet your expectations. Measurements are estimates based on device signals and are not certified for official, legal, evidentiary, or competitive purposes.
TORQ IS NOT A DRIVER-ASSISTANCE, COLLISION-AVOIDANCE, NAVIGATION, ROUTING, SPEED-MANAGEMENT, FLEET-MANAGEMENT, INSURANCE-TELEMATICS, OR SAFETY SYSTEM. TORQ DOES NOT MAKE DRIVING DECISIONS, ISSUE REAL-TIME SAFETY WARNINGS, OR INTERVENE IN VEHICLE OPERATION. TORQ IS A DRIVE-TRACKING AND SOCIAL PRODUCT INTENDED FOR REVIEW OF DRIVES AND RELATED STATS.
BrilliantZero has no duty to detect, predict, prevent, warn about, or report unsafe driving by you or any other user. Features that present records, rankings, or achievements are not an encouragement to drive unsafely on public roads.
OPERATING A MOTOR VEHICLE IS INHERENTLY DANGEROUS. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ASSUME ALL RISK ARISING FROM YOUR OPERATION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE WHILE TORQ IS INSTALLED OR IN USE, INCLUDING RISK OF INJURY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE, CITATIONS, AND RELATED CLAIMS. You agree not to use TORQ features to compete or drive unlawfully on public roads.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BRILLIANTZERO AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (USD $100) OR (B) THE TOTAL AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO BRILLIANTZERO FOR TORQ IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations. Where limitations are not permitted, they apply only to the extent allowed by law. These limitations are an essential basis of the bargain.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless BrilliantZero and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from claims and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the Services; (b) your violation of these Terms or applicable law; (c) your User Content; (d) your operation of a motor vehicle; or (e) your violation of any third party’s rights. We may assume exclusive defense of any matter subject to indemnification, and you will cooperate. You may not settle such a claim without our prior written consent.
Before filing a formal claim, you agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute informally by emailing torqdrive.app@gmail.com with your name, a description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. The parties will attempt good-faith resolution for thirty (30) days.
These Terms and any dispute arising out of them are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to applicable consumer-protection rights that cannot be waived, the courts in India shall have exclusive jurisdiction, and you consent to that venue.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, any claim must be brought in an individual capacity and not as a class or representative action. Where class waivers are unenforceable, that portion is severed and the remainder continues in effect.
We may revise these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date and provide reasonable notice. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance, except where additional consent is required by law.
