Terms of use for the RoadStars communication platform

Community

User profile, friendships, chats, photo album, comments and social login are part of the community at "RoadStars". We keep track of user activities in the RoadStars community with ActivityStars.

The more active the users are, the more ActivityStars they receive. This allows users to see for themselves who is contributing what to the RoadStars community. The 5 most active users can be shown in the Community section of the RoadStars members( tile. All these activities offer users the chance to network together and exchange ideas. This means that:

Users can set up a profile
Users can be friends and network with other users
Users can exchange chat messages
Users can keep a photo album and show pictures to other users on the network

Truck drivers registered on RoadStars/the blue steering wheel

Community members who enter the driver(s licence number of their valid truck driver(s licence in their profile can receive special bonus campaigns from RoadStars which are directed specifically at this target group only (registered truck drivers/blue steering wheel). These could be, for example: vehicle tests, product surveys, driving safety training or other special truck driver events.
