2. Definitions

3. What the Directory is
3.1 The Directory helps people find community groups and gatherings in Singapore. We are a listing platform, not an organiser, host, venue, insurer or booking service.
3.2 We do not run, supervise or approve the activities of any group. Each group is responsible for its own gatherings and their safety.
3.3 Listing on the Directory does not mean that we endorse, verify or recommend any group, person or activity. Featured Placement does not mean endorsement either.
3.4 We review listings before they are publicly shown. Our review checks that a listing is complete and appears genuine and lawful, based on the information available to us. We do not verify every statement in a listing, carry out criminal or background checks on organisers, or inspect any venue or activity. We may decline, change, hide or remove any listing at any time, with or without a reason.
3.5 Listings show the organiser's information. Organisers are not our employees, agents or partners. "Approved" status means only that a listing passed our review under clause 3.4. It is not an endorsement, guarantee or safety certification.
4. Accounts and sign-in
4.1 Organisers sign in by email link. You must keep your email account secure. You are responsible for all activity under your account.
4.2 You must give accurate information and keep it up to date.
4.3 We may suspend or close any account that breaches these Terms, or that we reasonably believe is being used for fraud or misuse.
4.4 Administrators sign in separately. Unauthorised access to admin areas is prohibited.
5. Listings and content
5.1 Accuracy. You must make sure each listing is accurate, current and not misleading. Update it when details change, including gathering times, locations, fees and contact details. Organisers must also keep the information accurate about who runs the group, where and when gatherings take place, and any fees or conditions for participation.
5.2 Authority. You must have the right to publish the listing and all content in it, including names, logos and images. Do not publish anyone else's personal data without their consent.
5.3 Images. Images must be JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 5 MB each, with a maximum of four per listing. Only upload images you own or have permission to use. If people appear in an image, you confirm they have consented to its publication.
5.4 Approval. Approved listings are public. Unapproved listings are not shown in search and are not indexed. Listings may also be shared by link.
5.5 Content standards. You must not publish content that:
- is illegal, or promotes or facilitates illegal activity;
- is hateful, harassing, threatening, defamatory or discriminatory, including on the basis of race, religion, sex, age, disability or nationality;
- promotes violence, extremism, or the sexual exploitation of anyone, especially minors;
- is false, deceptive or misleading, including fake reviews, fake gatherings or misrepresentation of a group's affiliation;
- infringes anyone's intellectual property, privacy or other rights;
- is spam, or is intended to mislead people into paying or handing over personal data;
- breaches the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act 2019, the Online Safety (Miscellaneous Amendments) Act 2022, or any other applicable Singapore law.
5.6 Our rights. We may review, edit, hide or remove any content, and suspend or close accounts, at any time and without notice where we consider a breach has occurred or that the content is harmful, unlawful or inappropriate.
5.7 Your licence to us. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to host, display, reproduce, adapt and promote your listing content on the Site and in related marketing, for as long as the listing is on the Site. You keep ownership of your content.
5.8 Social hub. Listings in the Social hub that offer dating, singles or romantic introductions must be for adults aged 18 and over. Organisers must not use the Site to solicit money, sexual services, or personal details from participants, and must comply with all applicable Singapore law. We may require age checks or additional information before approving these listings.
6. Enquiries and reports
6.1 When you send an enquiry, we pass your name, contact details and message to the group you contacted. The group may contact you about your enquiry.
6.2 Groups are responsible for handling enquiries and personal data they receive. We are not responsible for how a group uses information after it is shared with them, except as set out in our Privacy Notice.
6.3 You must not use enquiries or contact details from the Site to send unsolicited commercial messages, or for any purpose other than contacting the group about the matter in question.
6.4 Report concerns. If you believe a listing, gathering, organiser or participant is unsafe, dishonest, fraudulent or unlawful, report it to us at chloe@sgthirdspaces.com with as much detail as you can. We review reports and may act on them without notice to the organiser, including removing content, suspending accounts or refusing future listings. For any immediate danger, contact the police on 999.
7. Featured Placement and bidding
7.1 Overview. Organisers may bid for one of seven Featured Placement slots, one per hub, each month. Featured listings display a "FEATURED" label. The label does not mean endorsement (see clause 3.3).
7.2 Bidding rules.
- a) Bids are for a monthly slot in a specific hub and a specific approved listing.
- b) The starting price for the first month is S$10. The starting price for each following month is the last winning bid. If there is no bid for a slot, its starting price stays at the last winning bid.
- c) The minimum increase over the current highest bid is S$1.
- d) Bids close on the 25th of each month. The winning bidder is charged on the 1st of the following month, at the amount of their winning bid. This is a pay-as-bid auction, and the winner pays their own bid.
- e) If two bids are equal, the earlier bid wins.
- f) You provide a card on file when you place a bid. The card is charged only if you win.
- g) If payment fails, the slot passes to the next-highest bidder at their bid amount, and the failed bidder loses the slot.
- h) Bids are binding once placed, unless we cancel the auction under clause 7.4.
7.3 Prices and taxes. All prices are in Singapore dollars.
7.4 Cancellation and errors. We may cancel, suspend or re-run any auction if we find a technical error, fraud, or any other irregularity. If we do, we will refund any amount charged for the affected slot.
7.5 Refunds. Featured Placement fees are non-refundable once the slot period has started, except where we are at fault or the law requires a refund.
7.6 Changes to the bidding model. We may change the bidding rules, minimum increments, starting prices or slot structure by giving at least 20 days' notice on the Site and by email to organisers. Changes do not affect a slot already paid for.
7.7 Payment processing. Payments are handled by Stripe. Your use of that service is subject to its terms.
8. Fees
8.1 Listing on the Directory is free.
8.2 Featured Placement is available as described in section 7.
8.3 We may introduce other paid services in future, which we will describe before you pay for them.
9. Gatherings, organisers and personal safety
9.1 Groups and gatherings listed on the Site are run by independent third parties, not by us. We are not responsible for their conduct, the activities they run, or the venues they use.
9.2 Each organiser is solely responsible for:
- a) the safety of their gatherings, participants and any volunteers or helpers;
- b) the venues, equipment and activities they use, and any permits, licences, insurance or approvals those require;
- c) complying with all applicable laws, including laws on physical activity, food and drink, alcohol, and the safeguarding of children and vulnerable people;
- d) the accuracy of what they publish about their group and gatherings;
- e) the conduct of anyone acting for them.
9.3 Organisers that run gatherings involving minors, or that involve physical activity, must have appropriate safeguards and insurance in place. We may ask for evidence of this before approving a listing.
9.4 Participants take part at their own risk. Before attending, you should check the group's details, ask questions if unsure, and take sensible precautions, particularly when meeting people for the first time, travelling to or from gatherings, or taking part in physical activities.
9.5 Fees and payments. Any fees for a gathering are paid directly to the organiser, not through the Site. We never ask for deposits, transfers, cryptocurrency or other payments on behalf of an organiser. We are not a party to any payment between an organiser and a participant, and we are not responsible for any loss arising from it. If you are asked to pay outside the Site in a way that concerns you, report it to us under clause 6.4.
9.6 Limits of responsibility. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any injury, loss, theft, harassment, fraud or other harm arising from a gathering or from an interaction with an organiser or other participant. This does not limit any liability that cannot be excluded under Singapore law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence (clause 14.1).
9.7 Reporting to authorities. If you believe a person is in immediate danger, call 999. For non-emergency crime, call the Singapore Police Force on 1800 255 0000 or use the police online services. We will cooperate with the police and other authorities, and may disclose information about a listing, organiser or account where we believe this is needed to investigate or prevent harm, or where the law requires it.
