Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026-06-02
1. Agreement to these Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Stubby mobile application, website, and related services (the "Services"), which are owned and operated by Latent Space Inc., an Ontario corporation based in Toronto ("Stubby", "we", "our", or "us"). By creating an account or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
2. Eligibility
To register an account you must have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement, be of legal drinking age in your province — 18+ in Alberta, Manitoba, and Québec, and 19+ elsewhere in Canada — and comply with all applicable laws regarding alcohol and online conduct. We may request age verification and may suspend or terminate accounts that do not meet these requirements.
3. Account registration
You are responsible for maintaining accurate account information, keeping your login credentials confidential, restricting access to your account, and all activity that occurs under it. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. We may refuse registration, or suspend or terminate accounts, at our discretion where permitted by law.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Violate any applicable law or use the Services for unlawful purposes;
- Impersonate another person or business;
- Harass, threaten, intimidate, or abuse others;
- Post defamatory, fraudulent, hateful, or misleading content;
- Upload malicious software or code;
- Attempt unauthorized access to systems or data, or circumvent security measures;
- Scrape, harvest, or collect data using automated means;
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code;
- Interfere with the operation of the Services.
We reserve the right to investigate and act on violations of these Terms.
5. User content
The Services let you submit photos, reviews, ratings, comments, check-ins, brewery experiences, profile information, and other content ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content. You are solely responsible for it and represent that you have all rights necessary to upload and share it.
By posting User Content, you grant Stubby a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, display, distribute, modify for technical purposes, and promote the Services — solely in connection with operating, improving, marketing, and providing Stubby. This licence ends when the content is deleted from the Services, except where retention is required by law, backups, or dispute resolution.
6. Content moderation
We may, but are not obligated to, monitor, remove, or restrict the visibility of content, and suspend or terminate accounts. We reserve the right to remove content that violates these Terms or that we reasonably determine may expose Stubby or its users to harm, liability, or legal risk.
7. Brewery information disclaimer
The Services display information about breweries, taprooms, beers, events, menus, hours, and locations sourced from breweries, business owners, third-party providers, community submissions, and automated sources. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, availability, or timeliness of any of it. Verify directly with the brewery before relying on it or visiting.
8. Brewer accounts
Breweries may claim their listing through a separate process governed by additional terms. By claiming, the brewery confirms it has authority to represent the business.
Breweries that claim or manage a brewery profile grant Stubby a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, display, reproduce, and distribute brewery-provided names, logos, trademarks, beer labels, photographs, menus, and promotional materials for the purpose of operating and promoting the Stubby platform.
9. No alcohol sales
Stubby is an informational and social platform. We do not manufacture, distribute, sell, deliver, or facilitate the purchase of alcoholic beverages unless explicitly stated through a separate service. Any transactions between users and third parties occur solely between those parties.
10. Responsible consumption
Stubby promotes responsible enjoyment of craft beer. You agree to comply with applicable alcohol laws, never drink and drive, never provide alcohol to minors, and consume alcohol responsibly. Information provided through the Services is not medical, health, or safety advice. If you or someone you know needs help, contact ConnexOntario (1-866-531-2600) or your provincial equivalent.
11. Intellectual property
Except for User Content and third-party content, all rights, title, and interest in the Services — including software, designs, user interfaces, logos, trademarks, databases, visual assets, and content compilations — are owned by Latent Space Inc. or its licensors. No rights are granted except as expressly provided in these Terms.
12. Brewery intellectual property
Trademarks, logos, beer names, labels, product images, and other brewery assets remain the property of their respective owners. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of that intellectual property; brewery materials are displayed with permission.
13. Copyright and IP complaints
If you believe content on Stubby infringes your intellectual property rights, follow our Copyright and IP Takedown Policy or submit a notice to legal@getstubby.com. We may remove or disable access to allegedly infringing content, or request additional information, while reviewing complaints.
14. Third-party services
The Services may integrate with or link to third-party services. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party websites, applications, products, or services. Your use of them is governed by their own terms and policies.
15. Service availability
The Services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We may modify features, add or remove functionality, suspend access, perform maintenance, or discontinue portions of the Services. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
16. Beta features
Some features may be identified as experimental, beta, preview, or early access. These may be changed or removed at any time and may be less reliable than production features.
17. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. We disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and availability. Your use of the Services is at your own risk.
18. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Latent Space Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, goodwill, data, or business interruption, arising from or related to the Services.
In no event shall Stubby's total aggregate liability exceed the greater of (a) CAD $100, or (b) the amount you paid to Stubby during the twelve months preceding the claim.
19. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Latent Space Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and affiliates from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses arising out of your use of the Services, your User Content, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party rights.
20. Termination
You may delete your account at any time in Settings. We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you violate these Terms, if we believe continued access presents a risk to users or Stubby, or where required by law. Termination does not affect rights or obligations accrued before it.
21. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
22. Dispute resolution
Before commencing legal proceedings, you agree to attempt to resolve disputes informally by contacting legal@getstubby.com. Any dispute not resolved informally shall be submitted exclusively to the courts located in Ontario, Canada, and you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts.
23. Electronic communications
You consent to receive communications electronically, including service notices, security alerts, legal notices, and policy updates. Electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
24. Force majeure
Stubby is not liable for delays or failures resulting from causes beyond our reasonable control, including internet outages, natural disasters, labour disputes, government actions, cyberattacks, and utility failures.
25. Assignment
We may assign or transfer these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets. You may not assign your rights without our prior written consent.
26. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
27. Entire agreement
These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Stubby regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
28. Changes to these Terms
We may modify these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated through the Services or by email. Continued use of the Services after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. The change log is at the bottom of this page.
