Terms of Use

Effective date: July 22, 2026

The short version

Local Take's recommendations are generated by AI and are for informational purposes only — they're a starting point for your research, not real-estate, financial, or legal advice. Neighborhoods change, data can be imperfect, and AI can be wrong, so verify anything important before making moving decisions. You own what you type; the service is provided as-is.

1. Agreement to these terms

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Open Form LLC, a company based in San Francisco, California ("Open Form," "we," "us," or "our"), and govern your use of Local Take (localtake.app) and related services (the "Service"). By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. What Local Take is (and isn't)

Local Take helps you explore neighborhoods and generates personalized suggestions based on the preferences you share. Recommendations, descriptions, comparisons, and other outputs are generated by artificial intelligence and are provided for informational purposes only.

3. Accounts and guest use

You can use the Service as a guest (subject to usage limits) or create an account. If you create an account, you agree to provide accurate information, keep your credentials secure, and accept responsibility for activity under your account. We may set, change, or enforce usage limits (such as message caps or rate limits) at any time. To delete your account, email [email protected].

4. Your content

You own what you enter into the Service — your messages, preferences, and notes ("Your Content"). By using the Service, you grant Open Form a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, store, process, and transmit Your Content solely as needed to operate, provide, protect, and improve the Service (including sending it to the AI and infrastructure providers described in our Privacy Policy). You represent that you have the rights to submit Your Content and that it does not violate any law or third-party rights.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

6. Our intellectual property

The Service — including its software, design, branding, and content we provide (excluding Your Content and third-party materials) — is owned by Open Form or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these Terms. Map data and tiles are provided by third parties under their own attributions and licenses.

7. Third-party services

The Service relies on third-party services (such as AI model providers, authentication, analytics, hosting, and map tiles) and may link to third-party websites. We are not responsible for third-party services or content, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms and policies.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE AND ALL OUTPUTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED AVAILABILITY. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, CURRENT, OR SUITABLE FOR YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OPEN FORM AND ITS MEMBERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OPPORTUNITY (INCLUDING ANY DECISION TO MOVE TO, RENT IN, OR PURCHASE IN ANY LOCATION), ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OPEN FORM'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (US $50) OR THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Open Form and its members, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to Your Content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

11. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, including if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or to protect the Service or its users. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 4 and 8–13) will survive.

12. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, and you consent to personal jurisdiction and venue there.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll update the effective date above and post the revised Terms here; material changes may be highlighted in the app. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you don't agree to the changes, stop using the Service.
