Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions govern all service arrangements made through BlackRide Car Service for limo and chauffeur services in Tampa, St. Petersburg, Orlando, Sarasota, and all of Central Florida.

Last Modified: June 23, 2026

General Provisions

BlackRide Car Service, LLC, located in Tampa Bay, Florida (USA), facilitates the booking of transportation services through its proprietary online platform, including integrations with third-party tools and mobile applications (collectively, "BR Tools").

The company arranges transportation for users through independent ride service providers ("Transportation Providers" or "TPs") but does not directly provide transportation services. Its role is to coordinate service agreements between users and independent TPs.

These Terms and Conditions govern all service arrangements made through BlackRide Car Service and define the relationship between the user, BlackRide Car Service, and the TP. Any conflicting terms presented by users are not recognized unless explicitly agreed to in writing by company management.

Contractual Relationship

BlackRide Car Service is not a transportation provider nor an agent of any TP. The company acts solely as a facilitator, granting users direct access to services from independent TPs.

Agreements between BlackRide Car Service and TPs establish a "contract for the benefit of third parties," giving users enforceable rights to receive transportation services.

The user's contract is limited to the arrangement of transportation. The total booking cost includes a coordination fee for BlackRide Car Service and payment to the TP for the ride itself.

Booking Confirmation

A contract begins when a user submits a ride request via BR Tools or phone.

An acknowledgment of the request is sent by email, followed by a separate booking confirmation, which finalizes the agreement and grants the user the right to receive transportation from the assigned TP.

User Registration

Users must provide accurate and truthful information when registering through BR Tools.

Automated, incomplete, or fraudulent registrations are strictly prohibited.
