Terms of Service

Last updated: 9 June 2026

By using the We Belong website, creating an account, booking an activity, or joining our waitlist, you agree to these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully. If you do not agree, please do not use We Belong.

1. About We Belong

We Belong is an online platform that connects people in The Hague with local hobby activities and the hosts who run them. We Belong is operated by Christopher Tremlett, based in The Hague, Netherlands. In these terms, "We Belong", "we", "us", and "our" refer to that operator; "you" refers to anyone who uses the platform.

We Belong is a marketplace and an introduction service. We provide the platform that lets hosts list activities and lets seekers (the people who book those activities) find and request a place. We Belong does not own, run, supervise, or control any activity, and we are not the organiser or provider of any activity. Activities are created, described, priced, and delivered by independent hosts. When you book, any resulting agreement is directly between you and the host. We Belong is not a party to that agreement and does not act as anyone's agent.

The platform is still developing. Features described on this website represent our current product and may change, be added, or be removed over time.


2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use We Belong, create an account, book an activity, or sign up for our waitlist. By using this website, you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide about yourself is accurate.


3. Your account

To book activities and use our community features, you create an account using your email address and a password, or by signing in with Google. You are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for all activity that takes place under your account. Please let us know promptly at info@webelong.nl if you believe your account has been used without your permission.

You can edit your profile or delete your account at any time. We may suspend or remove an account that breaches these terms, is used unlawfully, or puts other members or the platform at risk. How we handle the personal data linked to your account is explained in our Privacy Policy.


4. Waitlist and updates

If you submit your email address to join our waitlist or to receive updates, we use it to let you know about We Belong. This creates no obligation on either side, and you can unsubscribe or ask to be removed at any time by emailing info@webelong.nl.


5. Booking an activity

When you request a place on an activity, you submit a booking request to the host. A booking request is not confirmed until the host accepts it. Until then, your place is not guaranteed. The host may accept or decline a request at their discretion, and we will email you to let you know the outcome.

You agree to provide accurate booking details and to read the activity listing, including its description, location, timing, price, requirements, and cancellation policy, before you book. The host is solely responsible for the activity itself, including its content, safety, quality, accuracy of the listing, and for meeting any legal or insurance requirements that apply to it.


6. Prices and payment

Prices are set by the host and shown on each listing. We Belong does not currently process payments and does not hold or transfer any money. Payment for a confirmed booking is arranged and collected directly by the host, separately from the platform. We are not the merchant of record for any activity, and we are not responsible for collecting payment, issuing receipts, or handling payment disputes between you and a host.


7. Cancellations and refunds

You can cancel a pending request or a confirmed booking from your My bookings page. Each listing displays the host's cancellation policy before you book, and one of the following tiers applies:

Activities without a fixed date, such as interest lists, are fully refundable when cancelled. A request that the host has not yet confirmed has not been charged, so there is nothing to refund.

Because We Belong does not process payments, any refund you are owed is calculated against the host's policy and then issued directly by the host. We Belong does not move money and is not responsible for paying refunds. If a host cancels a confirmed booking, you are entitled to a full refund of anything you paid for it.


8. Community and social features

We Belong includes optional community features. If your profile is set to be visible, other seekers booked onto the same session can see a limited public profile, namely your first name, profile photo, and interests, so that people attending the same activity can recognise and connect with one another. Members can send each other connection requests and, once connected, exchange messages through the platform.

You control this. You can turn off your visibility to other members at any time in your profile settings, and you do not have to accept any connection request or reply to any message. When you take part in these features, you agree to treat other members with respect and to follow the conduct rules in section 9. Messages and connections are between members; We Belong does not monitor every interaction, but we may review reported content and remove it or suspend accounts where appropriate.


9. Your conduct

When you use We Belong, whether through the website, email, bookings, or community features, you agree not to:

You can report a member, message, or listing to us at info@webelong.nl. We reserve the right to remove any content, booking, or account that breaches these standards, without being required to give reasons.


10. Safety and assumption of risk

Activities take place in the real world and may involve physical effort, equipment, travel, or contact with other people. You take part in any activity, and in any interaction with hosts or other members, at your own risk. You are responsible for deciding whether an activity is suitable for you, and we encourage you to consider your own health, ability, and insurance before booking.

We Belong does not verify the identity, background, qualifications, or conduct of any host or member, and we do not carry out background checks. We are not responsible for the conduct, actions, content, safety, or omissions of hosts or members, whether online or in person. To the extent permitted by law, you release We Belong from any claims arising out of disputes or incidents between you and a host or another member.


11. Intellectual property and your content

All content on this website, including text, images, logos, and design, is owned by or licensed to We Belong. You may not reproduce, copy, or redistribute any part of this website without our written permission.

When you submit content to the platform, such as a profile, photo, message, application, or review, you keep ownership of it and you grant We Belong a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, display, and use that content for the purpose of operating, improving, and promoting the platform. You confirm that you have the right to share any content you submit and that it does not infringe anyone else's rights.


12. Host applications

Submitting a host application does not guarantee acceptance onto the platform. We Belong reviews all applications individually and reserves the right to accept or decline any application at its sole discretion, without being required to give reasons.

If your application is accepted, our separate Host Terms and Host Privacy Policy also apply, covering the specifics of listing activities, commission, payments, cancellations, and platform conduct. These apply in addition to these Terms before you go live on the platform.


13. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

The We Belong website and platform are provided "as is" and "as available". We do our best to keep them accurate and running, but we make no warranties about the completeness, reliability, suitability, or availability of the site, its content, or any activity listed on it.

Because We Belong is an introduction service and not the provider of any activity, we are not liable for the activities themselves or for any act or omission of a host or member. To the fullest extent permitted by law, We Belong is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of the platform or any activity booked through it. Where We Belong is found liable to you, our total liability will not exceed the greater of the amount you have paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or 100 euros. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited under Dutch law.


14. Third-party services

We Belong relies on the following third-party services, each governed by its own terms and privacy policy:

We are not responsible for the practices of these third parties. How they handle your data is described further in our Privacy Policy.


15. Governing law

These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the Netherlands. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of We Belong will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of The Hague, Netherlands.


16. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the platform after changes are made constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
