The ground rules
Terms of Service
A few ground rules for a little less dinner debate.
Last updated: October 15, 2026
1. Our agreement
These Terms of Service govern your use of the Get Forked website, mobile app and related services (the “Service”), operated by Byte Ranch, LLC, Asheville, North Carolina, United States (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Service, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information. Contact us at [email protected].
2. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 13 years old and meet any higher minimum age required where you live. If you are under the age of majority, your parent or legal guardian must review and agree to these terms and supervise your use.
Provide accurate account information, protect your sign-in details and notify us if you suspect unauthorized access. Do not impersonate someone else or use another person’s account without authorization. One account per person.
3. What Get Forked does
Get Forked helps you choose where to eat through restaurant discovery and randomized selections. App features include saved collections, double downs on a menu, friend sessions, check-ins and virtual points. The website demo uses fictional restaurants and does not make reservations, place orders, verify real visits or award app points.
The app is in development. Pre-release builds can contain errors, and features may change. We do not promise a release date, particular restaurant coverage or continuous availability.
Get Forked is not a restaurant, delivery service or payment intermediary. You arrange and pay for your meal directly with the restaurant. The Service is free today. Any future paid feature will disclose its price and applicable terms before purchase.
4. Restaurant information and your decisions
Restaurant information comes from third parties and users and may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify opening hours, prices, availability, ingredients, allergens and dietary suitability directly with the restaurant. A filter or menu suggestion is not a guarantee of safety or suitability.
You decide whether to follow any suggestion and remain responsible for your purchases and travel. Use the Service safely and never operate it while driving.
5. Points and rewards
Points, levels and streaks are recreational features. They have no cash value and cannot be bought, sold, transferred or redeemed for money. They are not wagers or financial rewards. We may adjust points or their rules to correct errors, respond to abuse or change the experience.
Only claim check-ins, double downs and other rewards for activity you actually completed. A result is a suggestion, not an obligation to visit or spend money.
6. App license and ownership
Subject to these terms and applicable app-store rules, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose on devices you own or control. We and our licensors retain rights in the Service, branding, design and software. No other rights are granted.
For an app obtained through Apple, use is also subject to Apple’s applicable usage rules, including permitted Family Sharing or volume purchasing arrangements.
7. Content you provide
You retain ownership of content you submit, such as an avatar, restaurant collection, menu contribution or receipt photo. You grant us permission to host, process and display that content only as needed to operate the Service, provide features you use, handle support and meet legal requirements. Sharing with other users depends on the features you choose.
Submit only content you have the right to use. Do not upload another person’s private information without permission or content that is unlawful, infringing, abusive, harassing or otherwise harmful. Receipt uploads should relate to your own meals. Harassment, hateful or discriminatory content, sexual content, threats, graphic violence, spam and disclosure of another person’s private information are not allowed. We may remove content or restrict sharing access for violations. Use Report / block beside a person or menu item to report a concern or stop contact. Manage blocks in You → Safety. Contact [email protected] for support or to appeal a moderation decision.
8. Acceptable use
Do not misuse the Service by faking check-ins, manipulating points, impersonating others, harassing users, distributing malware, attempting unauthorized access or disrupting service operation. Do not scrape or resell restaurant data in violation of applicable rights or service restrictions.
Do not reverse engineer or bypass access controls except to the extent applicable law expressly permits. You may report a suspected security issue privately to [email protected].
9. Third-party services
Sign-in, restaurant information, maps and app distribution may be provided by third parties under their own terms and policies. We do not control those services or restaurant operations, and we are not responsible for resolving a restaurant order, booking or payment dispute.
10. Suspension and deletion
You may stop using the Service at any time and request deletion through the app or the account-deletion page. Retention and deletion are described in our Privacy Policy. Removing the app from a device does not delete your account.
We may restrict or end access when needed to address a violation, protect the Service or comply with law. We may also change or discontinue the Service. Where reasonably practicable and legally required, we will provide notice and an opportunity to request your data.
11. Disclaimers and responsibility
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of uninterrupted operation, accuracy or fitness for a particular purpose. Pre-release features may not work as expected.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for indirect or consequential losses arising from use of the Service. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, or limits your mandatory consumer rights.
12. App-store provisions
If you obtain the app from Apple’s App Store, these terms are between you and Byte Ranch, LLC, not Apple. Byte Ranch, LLC is responsible for the app and its content, maintenance, support and applicable claims, including product-liability, consumer-protection and intellectual-property claims. Apple has no obligation to provide support or maintenance.
If the app fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple may refund the purchase price, if any, as required by its terms and applicable law. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo or designated as a terrorist-supporting country, and are not on a U.S. government prohibited or restricted parties list. You must comply with applicable third-party terms. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of the applicable app-related provisions and may enforce them.
If you obtain the app from Google Play, applicable Google Play terms also govern its distribution and use.
13. Questions and disputes
Please contact [email protected] if you have a concern so we can try to resolve it. These terms do not require arbitration or waive your right to bring a claim in a court available under applicable law. Mandatory protections and rights under the law where you live are preserved.
14. Updates and general terms
We may revise these terms as the Service evolves. We will update the date on this page and provide notice of material changes where required. Changes apply prospectively, subject to applicable law.
If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. Not enforcing a provision immediately does not waive it. Provisions that reasonably need to continue after use ends, including ownership, permitted retention, disclaimers and dispute provisions, survive termination to the extent applicable.
