These Terms of Use ("Terms") outline the conditions for accessing and using the applications, websites, content, products, and services (collectively referred to as the "Services") provided by RescueTap, a private limited company registered in Nigeria, with its offices located at 22 Kigoma Street, Wuse Zone 7, Abuja.
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING OUR SERVICES.
By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms, forming a contractual agreement between you and RescueTap. If you do not agree with these Terms, you are not permitted to access or use the Services. These Terms override any previous agreements or arrangements between you and RescueTap.
RescueTap reserves the right to terminate these Terms, discontinue its Services, or restrict access to them—whether in whole or in part—at any time and for any reason.
Additional supplementary terms may apply to specific Services, including policies related to events, promotions, or activities. These supplemental terms will be communicated alongside the relevant Services and will be considered an extension of these Terms. If there is any conflict between the supplemental terms and these Terms, the supplemental terms will take precedence.
RescueTap may update or modify these Terms periodically. Any changes will become effective once posted at this location or within the relevant Service. Your continued use of the Services after such updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
RescueTap collects and uses personal information under its Privacy Policy, available at (docs, landing page or website)notice. In the event of a complaint, dispute, or conflict, RescueTap may share necessary details, including your contact information, with an insurer or claims processor to facilitate resolution.
The Services provided by RescueTap function as a technology platform that allows users of RescueTap's mobile applications and websites (each referred to as an "Application") to connect with emergency service providers, including private ambulances, doctors, medical staff, and drivers, who operate under agreements with RescueTap or its affiliates (collectively referred to as "Third-Party Providers"). Unless otherwise stated in a separate written agreement with RescueTap, these Services are available solely for personal, non-commercial use.
Provided you comply with these Terms, RescueTap grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, revocable, and non-transferable license to:
All rights not explicitly granted under these Terms remain the property of RescueTap or its licensors.
You are prohibited from:
The Services may integrate with or provide access to third-party services and content (including advertisements) that RescueTap does not control. You acknowledge that these external services and content may be subject to separate terms of use and privacy policies, which will apply to your interactions with them. RescueTap does not endorse, manage, or take responsibility for any products or services provided by third-party entities.
Additionally, if you access the Services through Apple iOS, Android, Microsoft Windows, or BlackBerry-powered devices, then Apple Inc., Google Inc., Microsoft Corporation, and their international affiliates are considered third-party beneficiaries of this agreement. However, these companies are not parties to this contract and hold no responsibility for the provision or support of the Services. Your use of the Services on these platforms is governed by their respective terms of service.
The services, along with all associated rights and intellectual property are and will remain the sole property of RescueTap or its licensors. Your use of the Services does not grant you any ownership or rights to:
To access most features of the Services, you are required to register and maintain an active personal account ("Account"). To create an Account, you must be at least 18 years old or meet the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction if it differs from 18.
During registration, you must provide RescueTap with certain personal details, including your name, address, mobile phone number, age, and at least one valid payment method (such as a credit card or an approved payment provider). You must ensure that all information associated with your Account is accurate, complete, and up to date at all times. Failure to do so—including having an expired or invalid payment method on file—may result in restricted access to the Services or the termination of your agreement with RescueTap.
You are solely responsible for all activities carried out through your Account and must maintain the confidentiality of your username and password. Unless explicitly permitted by RescueTap in writing, you are allowed to register for only one account.
At its sole discretion, RescueTap may allow you to submit, upload, publish, or share various forms of content through its Services. This may include text, audio, video, feedback, support requests, and entries for promotions or competitions ("User Content"). While you retain ownership of any User Content you provide, by submitting it to RescueTap, you grant the company a global, permanent, irrevocable, transferable, and royalty-free license—including the right to sublicense—to use, copy, modify, distribute, publicly display, create derivative works of, and otherwise utilize the content in any format or distribution channel, whether currently existing or developed in the future. This can include use on RescueTap's platforms, business operations, and third-party sites, without requiring further consent or compensation to you or any other party.
By submitting User Content, you confirm that:
You also agree not to submit content that is defamatory, obscene, violent, hateful, pornographic, unlawful, or otherwise offensive. RescueTap reserves the right—but is not obligated—to review, monitor, and remove any User Content at its discretion, without prior notice.
You are responsible for securing the necessary data network access to use RescueTap's Services. Your mobile carrier's data and messaging fees may apply when accessing the platform via a wireless-enabled device, and you bear sole responsibility for such costs.
Additionally, you must obtain and maintain compatible devices and hardware needed to use the Services and Applications, including any necessary updates. RescueTap does not guarantee that its Services will be compatible with all hardware or devices, and performance may be affected by internet connectivity issues or electronic communication disruptions.
By using RescueTap's Services, you acknowledge that you may incur charges for goods or services provided by Third Party Providers ("Charges"). Once you receive these goods or services, RescueTap will process the payment on behalf of the Third Party Provider acting as their authorized payment collection agent. This means that your payment to RescueTap will be considered equivalent to a direct payment made to the Third Party Provider.
Charges may include additional fees, such as booking private/personal doctors, and any applicable taxes as required by law. Unless otherwise determined by RescueTap, all payments made are final and non-refundable. However, you retain the right to negotiate a lower charge directly with the Third Party Provider at the time of service. If a Third Party Provider requests a price adjustment, RescueTap will consider the request accordingly.
RescueTap reserves the right to modify, add, or remove Charges for any of its Services or Goods at its sole discretion. You also understand that in certain geographical locations or periods of high demand, Charges may significantly increase. While RescueTap will make reasonable efforts to inform you of applicable Charges, you are responsible for all costs incurred under your Account, whether or not you were explicitly aware of them.
Occasionally, RescueTap may offer promotional discounts or special pricing to certain users, leading to varying Charges for similar services. You acknowledge that such promotions or discounts are independent of your Charges and do not entitle you to similar pricing unless explicitly offered to you. Additionally, if you choose to cancel a service request before the Third Party Provider arrives, a cancellation fee may apply.
The payment structure is designed to fully compensate the Third Party Provider for their services or goods. Unless stated otherwise for specific transportation services, RescueTap does not designate any portion of your payment as a tip or gratuity. Any statements by RescueTap indicating that tipping is "optional," "not required," or "included" do not imply that additional amounts are paid to the Third Party Provider beyond the stated charges.
You are free to provide a gratuity at your discretion, but it is completely voluntary. Once you have received a service or product through the RescueTap platform, you will also have the opportunity to rate your experience and provide feedback regarding the third-party Provider.
THE RESCUETAP SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. RESCUETAP MAKES NO GUARANTEES OR WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, THAT ARE NOT EXPLICITLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. THIS INCLUDES BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
FURTHERMORE, RESCUETAP DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES OR ANY GOODS OR SERVICES OBTAINED THROUGH THEM WILL BE RELIABLE, TIMELY, OF A CERTAIN QUALITY, SUITABLE, AVAILABLE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR-FREE. RESCUETAP ALSO DOES NOT MAKE ASSURANCES REGARDING THE SAFETY, SUITABILITY, OR CAPABILITIES OF THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS.

RESCUETAP SHALL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA, PERSONAL INJURY, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. THIS APPLIES EVEN IF RESCUETAP HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
ADDITIONALLY, RESCUETAP IS NOT LIABLE FOR:
IF ANY THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS OFFER ADDITIONAL SERVICES, RESCUETAP ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR THOSE SERVICES BEYOND WHAT IS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.
IN ANY CASE, RESCUETAP'S MAXIMUM TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR CLAIMS ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED $200.
SOME CONSUMER RIGHTS CANNOT BE EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, AND NOTHING IN THIS SECTION IS INTENDED TO OVERRIDE OR ALTER THOSE RIGHTS.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless RescueTap, along with its officers, directors, employees, and agents, from any claims, demands, losses, liabilities, or expenses (including legal fees) that arise from:
Except as otherwise stated in these terms, this agreement shall be governed and interpreted exclusively in accordance with the laws of Nigeria.
