1. About Who's Pooling?
Who's Pooling? (“the Service”, “we”, “us”) is a free carpool coordination tool that helps event organizers and attendees arrange shared rides.
Important:Who's Pooling? is a coordination platform only. We do not provide transportation services, employ drivers, dispatch vehicles, or participate in any actual ride or journey. We simply help people find each other and organize carpools voluntarily.
