What Kind of Services Does Uber Provide?

Uber provides means and information that enable individuals who access or use the Services or the Applications (“Users”) to request transportation services provided by third party transportation providers, drivers, or vehicle drivers (collectively, “Transportation Providers”. In the case of private paid passenger transportation under with Article 78, Item 2 of the Road Transportation Act of Japan and private car utilization business by taxi companies under Article 78, Item 3 of such act, municipality, specified nonprofit organization, taxi company, etc., may outsource transportation services to drivers who are independent contractors, to the extent permitted by law. In this case, the subcontracted drivers are not the party to the contractual relationship for transportation services with Users.) through applications (“Applications”) that are downloaded and installed on a mobile device (smartphone) and are provided by Uber B.V. and are managed by Uber B.V. (Uber B.V., incorporated under the laws of the Netherlands, having its office at Burgerweeshuispad 301, 1076 HR Amsterdam, the Netherlands). All services provided by Uber to Users through the Applications are referred to as “Services” in these User Terms.

How Are Agreements between Uber and Users Executed?

Users are deemed to agree with the User Terms by using the Applications or the Services and an agreement between the Users and Uber (“Agreement”) shall come into effect. In order to use the Applications or Services, the Users firstly need to register with a prescribed system. In order to make a registration, they need to provide Uber with their personal information such as mobile phone numbers and credit card data. After Users complete registration with the prescribed system, Uber creates a personal account that is accessible using a password set by them.

In addition to these User Terms, the Travel Agent Contract as specified separately by Uber [ https://uber-static.s3.amazonaws.com/web-fresh/legal/jp/201407UberJapanYakkan.pdf ] applies to tour contracts in relation to the Services.

Only persons of the legal age of adulthood or older may use Applications or Services. Persons who live in an area where they are prohibited from using the Applications or the Services due to an age limit set forth in laws and regulations, or where they are prohibited from executing this Agreement due to an age limit may not use the Services or the Applications until such a time as they meet the age limit. Users represent that, if they are individuals, they may individually execute an enforceable Agreement, or if they register on behalf of a corporation, they agree with the User Terms and execute an Agreement as a corporation and are entitled to register for the Services and the Applications.

How to Use the Services and the Applications.

Users may request Transportation Providers for transportation services using the Applications. In order to make a request, their mobile device (smartphone) on which they have downloaded the Application needs to be equipped with a GPS receiver. This GPS receiver obtains the location data of Users and sends it to Transportation Providers. The Transportation Providers, at their discretion, determine whether they accept or refuse the request for transportation services from Users. They also determine whether they use the Applications to receive the request for transportation services from Users through them at their discretion. If they accept the request, the Users are notified through the Applications, and information related to the Transportation Providers, such as the Transportation Provider’s name, number of the vehicle’s number plate, and customer service score, is provided to the User, enabling the User to contact the Transportation Providers by phone. Using the Applications, Users may also monitor the location of Transportation Providers in real time until the Transportation Providers come to the riding spot.

Notice: Uber itself does not provide transportation services. Uber is not a Transportation Provider. Transportation Providers, at their discretion, determine whether they provide transportation services requested through the use of the Applications and/or the Services. Uber merely acts as a provider of the Applications, or a travel agent who conducts arranged tours or packaged tours. There is no employment relationship between Uber and Transportation Providers.

Use of the Applications or the Services.

Users guarantee that information provided to Uber is accurate and complete. Uber may verify the information provided, and refuse to provide Users with the Services and/or Uber B.V. refuse use of the Applications by Users, at any time without presenting a reason.

Users may not access the Services using a method other than permitted ones. Users are to confirm whether the Applications downloaded on their mobile device (smartphone) are authentic. If Users fail to conduct the confirmation and use an incompatible mobile device (smartphone) with the Applications or download the inappropriate version on their mobile device (smartphone), Uber and its affiliates have no responsibility or liability for damage suffered by the Users due to this. If Users are using the Services or the Applications using an incompatible device or an improper device, Uber reserves a right to terminate the provision of the Services to the Users or Uber B.V. terminate their use of the Applications.

For using the Applications or the Services, Users agree with the following items:

1. Users use the Services or download the Applications only for their private use and do not let third parties use the Services or resell the Applications to third parties;
2. Users do not permit third parties to use their accounts;
3. Users do not transfer or assign their accounts to other individuals or corporations;
4. Unless otherwise permitted by Uber in writing, Users may only possess one Account;
5. Users do not use accounts whose rights are owned by third parties without appropriate permission;
6. Users do not use the Services or the Applications for unlawful or improper purposes including transmission or restoration of illegal information and things;
7. Users do not conduct acts that cause problems or inconvenience for third parties including freight companies or staff related to Uber or make them feel uncomfortable with regard to using the Services or the Applications;
8. Users do not interfere with appropriate operation of systems and networks related to the Services;
9. Users do not inflict damage to the Services or the Applications in any way;
10. Users do not prepare or distribute a copy of the Applications or other Uber Contents (see the definition below; the same shall apply hereinafter) unless otherwise permitted by Uber in writing;
11. Users confidentially and safely restore account passwords that permit access to the Services and the Applications, and ID information provided by Uber;
12. If requested reasonably by Uber, Users provide Uber with a certification of ID information;
13. If available in Users’ area, Users acknowledge that standard message transmission fees are charged when they request transportation services using SMS (short message service);
14. Users do not use the Services or the Applications using an incompatible or improper device;
15. Users comply with applicable laws and regulations in the country, prefecture, and municipality where they are when they use the Applications or the Services; and
16. Users comply with the community guidelines, which may be modified from time to time by Uber in its sole discretion, set forth at https://www.uber.com/legal/ja/document/?name=general-community-guidelines&country=japan&lang=ja .

If Users violate any of the above items, Uber reserves the right to immediately terminate the provision of the Services to Users and their use of the Applications.

Payment.

Users will be charged service fees by Uber and Transportation Providers as follows.

1. In an arranged tour, Users will pay travel business handling fees to Uber and the fees are set by Uber (if applicable), and transportation service fees (including tolls and parking fees, if applicable) to Transportation Providers and the fees are set by Transportation Providers. These fees are shown in the Applications or on the Website (if applicable. For Surcharge, please refer to this page). The indications of transportation service fees may be changed or updated if necessary and it is the User’s responsibility to refer to the latest fees. Uber may charge Users, on behalf of Transportation Providers, with transportation service fees (including tolls and parking fees, if applicable) provided by Transportation Providers to Users. In such cases, Payment of such fees made by Users to Uber shall be considered the same as payment made directly by Users to the Transportation Providers.

2. In a packaged tour, Users will pay a tour price (including tolls and parking fees, if applicable) to Uber that is set by Uber. The tour price is shown in the Applications.

Even with an upfront price, you may be charged a different amount than your upfront price (see here for details).

You may be charged cancellation fees by Uber on behalf of Transportation Providers or Uber itself after requests for transportation services from Users are accepted by Transportation Providers. The details of the cancellation policy can be found on https://help.uber.com/riders/article/%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A3%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BB%E3%83%AB%E3%83%9D%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B7%E3%83%BC%E3%81%AB%E3%81%A4%E3%81%84%E3%81%A6?nodeId=5f6415dc-dfdb-4d64-927a-66bb06bc4f82 (as amended by Uber from time to time).

Uber does not designate any portion of Users’ payment as a gratuity (tip). Users understand and agree that the provision of an additional payment as a gratuity is not obligatory but is voluntary. Where a User pays a gratuity to a Transportation Provider or its drivers, Uber may receive the gratuity on their behalf. In such cases, Payment of such gratuity made by Users to Uber shall be considered the same as payment made directly by Users to the Transportation Providers or its drivers.

Users agree that Uber may charge service fees for all services provided by Transportation Providers and Uber, and costs related thereto (including taxes, and delay damages, and gratuities (if applicable)) to User through the payment method accounts provided when they register for use of the Services (the payment method shall be specified by Uber. For the avoidance of doubt, Uber may not facilitate certain payment methods or any combination of payment methods.). Users may use the preferred payment method if Uber approves it. Users pay all service fees without delay and are, at any time, responsible for providing Uber with their valid payment method account information for payment of all service fees.

Uber uses a third party payment processor (“Payment Processor”) and links Users’ payment method accounts (e.g., credit card accounts) to the Applications and the Services. Payment or credit (if applicable) related to use of the Applications and the Services is handled in accordance with the User Terms as well as the terms and conditions of the Payment Processor and Users’ payment method providers (e.g., credit card companies), and personal information protection policies. Uber is not responsible or liable for any negligence by Payment Processor. In relation to use of the Services by Users, Uber obtains certain transaction information. This information is used only by Uber in accordance with the “Notification in connection with Personal Information Protection and Cookies.”

Indemnity.

Users agree that they indemnify, defend, and hold Uber and its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, representatives, licensors, and other users harmless from every claim, damage, loss, liability, and cost (including legal fees) arising from or in relation to:

1. Users’ breach and default of the terms and conditions of the User Terms, or applicable laws or regulations irrespective of whether they are set forth in the User Terms;

2. Users’ infringement of rights of third parties including Transportation Providers whom Users request transportation services from using the Applications; or

3. Users’ use or abuse of the Applications or the Services.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Users are to comply with the responsibilities and liabilities under tour contracts that are governed by the Travel Agent Contracts as specified separately by Uber.

UBER’S LIABILITY.

Uber does not represent and warrant that the contents of information, proposals, and/or the services provided to Users on the Website or through the Services and the Applications are errorless, up-to-date, accurate, or complete. Uber makes an effort to the extent it is reasonable to keep the Website, the Applications, and their Contents accessible, errorless, and updated; however, Uber does not guarantee that Users may use (the contents of) the Website and/or the Applications or that they have no faults, malware, or viruses, or that they are errorless, up-to-date, accurate, or complete.

Uber is not responsible or liable for any damage, including that caused by malware, viruses, or inaccuracy or incompleteness of the Website or the Applications, arising from or related to use of the Website or the Applications (or the fact that Users may not use them), or use of electronic means of communication through them (or the fact that Users may not use them).

When Users use electronic means of communication through the Website or the Applications, Uber also does not guarantee that, among other things, failure or delay of the electronic means of communication, blocking or operation of the electronic means of communication by a third party or by computer programs used in the electronic means of communication and transmission of viruses will not occur.

Uber does not represent and warrant anything other than that explicitly represented and warranted in this Agreement.

Transportation Providers who provide transportation services to Users are responsible for quality of transportation services requested through use of the Applications or the Services. Uber is not responsible or liable for damage in relation to or arising from transportation services provided by Transportation Providers, or actions, acts, behavior, words and deeds, or negligence of the Transportation Providers’ side. Users shall submit to Transportation Providers complaints related to transportation services provided by them.

However, the foregoing provisions do not apply to any defaults or tortious acts of Uber arising from matters attributable to Uber. Even if Uber is liable to Users in connection with the Website or the Applications, Uber shall be liable only for ordinary and direct damages actually incurred by Users up to an aggregate amount of 2,000 USD (or the Japanese Yen equivalent of 2,000 USD), except for cases where such liability is incurred by Uber's willful conduct or gross negligence.

Further, Uber’s liability under the tour contract shall be governed by the Travel Agent Contracts as specified separately by Uber.

In addition to these Rideshare Terms, the Travel Agent Contract as specified separately by Uber [https://uber-static.s3.amazonaws.com/web-fresh/legal/jp/201407UberJapanYakkan.pdf] applies to tour contracts in relation to the Services.

4. How to Use the Services and the Applications.

You may request that Drivers provide a ridesharing service using the Applications. In order to use the Services, your mobile device (smartphone, tablets, etc.) on which you have downloaded the Applications needs to be equipped with a GPS receiver. This GPS receiver obtains your location and sends your location data to Drivers. The Drivers, at their discretion, determine whether they accept or refuse the request for ridesharing. They also determine whether they use the Applications to receive requests made through them, at their discretion. If the Drivers accept the request, you are notified through the Applications, and Drivers’ information such as the Driver’s name, number of the vehicle’s number plate, and service score, is provided to you, enabling you to contact the Drivers by phone. Using the Applications, you may also monitor the location of the Drivers in real time until the Drivers come to the riding spot.

Notice: Uber does not provide ridesharing services, and it is not a ridesharing services provider. Ridesharing is provided by Drivers independently and may be merely requested through the use of the Applications or the Services. Uber merely act as a provider of the Applications, or a travel agent who intermediates between you and Drivers, etc. Therefore, ridesharing between you and Drivers is conducted in accordance with all possible agreements executed between you and the Drivers. Uber never becomes a party to such agreements. There is no employment relationship between Uber and Drivers.

5. Use of the Applications or the Services.

You guarantee that your information provided to Uber is accurate and complete. Uber may verify the information provided, and refuse to provide you with the Services and/or Uber B.V. refuse use of the Applications by you, at any time without presenting a reason.

You may access the Services only using permitted means. You have an obligation to confirm whether the Applications downloaded on your mobile devices (smartphone, tablets, etc.) are authentic. If you fail to conduct the confirmation, possess a mobile device compatible with the Applications, or download an inappropriate version of the Application on your mobile devices, Uber has no responsibility or liability due to this . If you are using the Services or the Applications using an incompatible device with the Applications, or an improper device, Uber reserves a right to terminate the provision of the Services to you and your use of the Applications.

For using the Applications or the Services, you agree with the following items:

12. If reasonably required by Uber, you provide Uber with a certification of ID information;

6. Payment.

Uber may charge fees to you for the Services provided by Uber if applicable.

Drivers may charge fees to you. In this case, Uber may charge you the fees on behalf of Drivers. Payment of such fees made by Users to Uber shall be considered the same as payment made directly by Users to the Drivers.

These fees may be available through the Applications. These fees may be changed or updated if necessary. With respect to fees for Driver, please check latest fees at User’s responsibility.

Uber does not designate any portion of Users’ payment as a gratuity (tip). Users understand and agree that the provision of an additional payment as a gratuity is not obligatory but is voluntary. Where a User pays a gratuity to Drivers, Uber may receive the gratuity on behalf of Drivers. Payment of such gratuity made by Users to Uber shall be considered the same as payment made directly by Users to the Drivers.

Uber uses a third party payment processor (“Payment Processor”) and links your payment method accounts (e.g., credit card accounts) to the Applications and the Services (the payment method shall be specified by Uber. For the avoidance of doubt, Uber may not facilitate certain payment methods or any combination of payment methods.). Payment (including the payment of a gratuity) or credit (if applicable) related to use of the Applications and the Services is handled in accordance with these Rideshare Terms as well as the terms and conditions set forth by the Payment Processor and your payment method providers (e.g., credit card companies), and personal information protection policies.
