Terms of Service

Last updated: 19 May 2026

1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Covey ("Covey", "we", "us", "our"). By creating an account or using the Covey mobile application or related services (together, the "Service") you confirm that you have read, understood and agreed to these Terms, our Privacy Policy and our Community Guidelines. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Eligibility

  • You must be at least 18 years old. We verify age via government ID. Submitting a false ID is a criminal offence and a permanent ban.
  • Covey is a women-only space. Accounts found to misrepresent gender will be removed.
  • You must not have been previously banned from Covey, nor use the Service if barred from doing so under any applicable law.
  • You confirm you are not listed on any sex-offender register or subject to a court order prohibiting use of social or dating services.

3. Your Account & Verification

You must provide accurate information and keep your credentials secure. You are responsible for all activity on your account. We may require selfie + ID verification at signup and again at any point if we have reasonable concerns about authenticity, safety or compliance.

4. Subscriptions & Payment

Full access to the Service requires a recurring subscription (currently £2.99/month), billed by Apple or Google through their in-app purchase systems. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Cancellation and refund requests are handled by Apple/Google under their store policies. If your verification is rejected, your subscription will be auto-refunded.

5. User Content & Licence

"User Content" means anything you post, send or upload on Covey. You retain ownership of your User Content.

By submitting User Content you grant Covey a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, modify (for technical purposes such as compression and resizing), publish and display that content solely for the purpose of operating, providing and improving the Service. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except where retention is required by law or to protect the safety of others.

You warrant that (a) you own or have all necessary rights to your User Content, (b) it does not infringe anyone's rights, and (c) it complies with these Terms and our Community Guidelines.

6. Prohibited Conduct

You must not post or upload any content, or use the Service in any way, that:

  • Is unlawful under UK law, including the Online Safety Act 2023, the Communications Act 2003, the Malicious Communications Act 1988 and the Protection of Children Act 1978.
  • Is sexual content involving anyone under 18 (CSAM), grooming, sextortion or solicitation of minors. We report such content to law enforcement without notice.
  • Is non-consensual intimate imagery, upskirting or voyeurism.
  • Promotes terrorism, serious violence, self-harm, suicide or eating disorders.
  • Is hate speech or targets a person based on a protected characteristic.
  • Harasses, bullies, stalks, threatens or intimidates any person.
  • Discloses another person's private information ("doxxing").
  • Is spam, phishing, fraud, romance scams, MLM recruitment or commercial solicitation.
  • Infringes a third party's intellectual property rights.
  • Attempts to circumvent moderation — including evading bans by creating new accounts.
  • Interferes with the Service technically (scraping, automation, reverse-engineering, DoS).

7. Reporting, Moderation & Enforcement

You can report any profile, message, post or community at any time from inside the app. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team and may result in a warning, content removal, temporary suspension, or permanent ban. We operate a three-strike warning system but may skip directly to a ban for serious or illegal conduct.

Where we ban you, your email may be added to a blocklist to prevent re-registration. Appeal by emailing support@coveyapp.co.uk.

8. Copyright Notices

If you believe content on Covey infringes your copyright, send a takedown notice to copyright@coveyapp.co.uk. We will remove infringing content promptly and may terminate repeat infringers.

9. Real-World Meetings — Disclaimer

Covey introduces people for sport and fitness. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users, online and in person. Verification confirms identity, not character — we do not perform criminal background checks. Always video-call first, meet in public, tell a friend where you're going, and trust your instincts.

10. Termination

You can delete your account at any time from Profile → Settings → Delete Account. We may suspend or terminate your account immediately, without notice, for breach of these Terms or for any conduct that we reasonably consider harmful to other users or to Covey.

11. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the maximum extent permitted by law, Covey disclaims all warranties, express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that any particular match, friendship or outcome will result from its use.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Covey will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages. Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising under these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) £100 or (b) the amount you have paid Covey in the 12 months before the claim arose. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under UK law.

13. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Covey from any claims, damages, losses or costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your User Content, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

14. Changes to the Service or Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be notified in-app or by email. Continued use constitutes acceptance.

15. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, except where mandatory consumer-protection law in your country of residence grants you the right to bring proceedings locally.
