The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, these “Terms of Use”), govern your access to and use of zero5.co or subdomains thereof, including any content, functionality and services offered on or through zero5.co (each, a “Website”), which enables parking facility owners or operators (“Parking Facility Operator”) that use our platform manage their parking facility and enables end users (“End Users”) to sign up for and use our platform to manage payment for parking at our locations. Use of zero5’s goods and services, including the access and use of our Website, by Parking Facility Operators may also be governed by additional terms and conditions set forth in our agreement for services. Your use of any mobile applications used to access the same or similar functionality as the Websites is also governed by our Mobile Application End User License Agreement, which is available when you download and use one of our mobile applications.

The Websites are offered and available to users who are 13 years of age or older and reside in the United States or any of its territories or possessions.
