Terms and legal information

Public version · 5 September 2026

ADOKVA is an independent interactive project displaying voluntarily selected geographic connections. It is not a government, immigration or official registry.

Terms of use

  1. The basic version requires no account, name, phone number or email address.
  2. Users choose birthplace and residence locations themselves. ADOKVA does not verify identity, citizenship, birthplace or actual residence.
  3. Selected places and generated routes stay in the user's browser localStorage and are not placed in the URL. ADOKVA does not publish user lists or individual routes. A separate voluntary participation action may increment one anonymous global aggregate counter; the selected cities and route are not included.
  4. Threats, harassment, doxxing, fraud, unlawful discrimination, disclosure of another person's personal data, automated attacks and other unlawful use are prohibited.
  5. ADOKVA materials and visualizations are provided for informational and entertainment purposes. They are not a public offer, professional advice, official statistics, a guarantee or a promise of results.
  6. The service is provided as is, may change and may be temporarily unavailable. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the project owner is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential loss. Nothing here excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Local Path Beacon

Path Beacon is a locally generated label for the selected route. ADOKVA does not maintain a Beacon directory, receive Beacon values or establish the identity of a Beacon holder. Users decide whether to disclose a code and which external service to use. Once a code is sent, that service's own terms apply.
