These Terms & Conditions govern your access to and use of DriveBW. By downloading, opening, purchasing through, or using DriveBW, you agree to these Terms and the DriveBW Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
DriveBW is an independent educational application designed to help users prepare for Botswana driving licence theory tests. Features may include study notes, section quizzes, mock tests, answer review, progress tracking, booking guidance, advertising-supported access, offline access, and paid Premium access.
DriveBW is provided for learning and practice only. It is not an official examination, licence, legal qualification, driving-school certificate, or guarantee that you will pass an official test.
DriveBW is not affiliated with, endorsed by, authorised by, sponsored by, or connected to the Government of Botswana, the Department of Road Transport and Safety (DRTS), or any other government entity.
Users must rely on official government sources for current rules, fees, eligibility requirements, booking procedures, and licence information.
The free version of DriveBW is supported by advertising. Ads may include banner, interstitial, rewarded, or other formats provided by Google AdMob or its advertising partners.
DriveBW does not control every advertisement shown and does not endorse products or services merely because an advertisement appears in the app. Advertising availability, content, and frequency may vary.
DriveBW may offer a one-time non-consumable product known as Lifetime Premium, legacy subscriptions, promotional access, or other paid products. The exact product, price, currency, benefits, and billing terms shown in the app store or purchase screen at the time of purchase form part of these Terms.
Premium benefits may include:
“Lifetime” means access for as long as DriveBW continues to make the applicable Premium service available, the purchase remains valid, the app remains compatible with the relevant platform, and the user complies with these Terms. It does not guarantee that DriveBW, every feature, or every platform will operate for the purchaser's natural lifetime.
“Ad-free” means DriveBW will not intentionally serve its normal third-party advertising placements to an active Premium user. It does not apply to store notices, external websites, third-party content, or promotional material that is not an AdMob advertisement served by DriveBW.
Purchases are processed by Google Play or Apple App Store, not directly by DriveBW. You agree to the billing terms of the store through which the purchase is made.
DriveBW uses RevenueCat and app-store records to validate purchases and determine whether Premium access is active. You may be required to connect to the internet to purchase, restore, or refresh entitlement status.
Purchases are normally tied to the Apple ID, Google account, store, platform, and transaction through which they were made. Restore Purchase may require the same store account. Cross-platform transfer between Android and iOS is not guaranteed unless DriveBW expressly confirms it in the app.
Premium access may be suspended or removed if a purchase is refunded, reversed, revoked, fraudulent, invalid, expired, or no longer recognised by the relevant app store or RevenueCat.
Some DriveBW functions require internet access, a supported device, a compatible operating system, functioning app-store services, advertising availability, or access to third-party servers.
You are responsible for your device, internet connection, mobile-data charges, app-store account, and compatibility. DriveBW does not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free, or permanently available service.
Certain content may be available offline. Free offline access may be limited by time, feature, session, device, or rolling-use allowance. Premium users may receive broader offline access, but occasional online verification may still be required for purchase validation, updates, security, or restoration.
Clearing app data, reinstalling the app, changing devices, changing store accounts, modifying the device, or using unsupported software may reset or affect locally stored progress and access records.
DriveBW may add, remove, replace, restrict, redesign, or discontinue features, content, advertising placements, free-use allowances, Premium benefits, prices, or supported platforms where reasonably necessary.
Changes will not create recurring charges for a one-time purchase. Existing statutory rights and valid app-store purchase rights remain subject to applicable law and platform rules.
Subject to these Terms, DriveBW grants you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the app on devices you own or control for personal educational purposes.
You may not:
DriveBW's software, branding, layout, original questions, notes, images, explanations, databases, and design elements are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. No ownership rights are transferred to you.
Certain educational concepts may be informed by official or publicly available driving materials, including materials associated with Botswana driving education. Any permissions, acknowledgements, or third-party rights remain subject to their applicable terms. Users may not copy or reuse DriveBW content without permission.
We aim to provide helpful and accurate learning content, but laws, road rules, official procedures, examination standards, prices, and government information may change. DriveBW does not guarantee that every question, answer, note, link, score, or simulation is complete, error-free, current, or identical to an official examination.
Always consult official government publications and qualified driving instructors. You remain fully responsible for lawful, safe driving and compliance with road-traffic laws.
DriveBW relies on third-party services including Google AdMob, Google Play, Apple App Store, RevenueCat, and external websites. Those services are governed by their own terms, privacy policies, availability, and technical requirements.
DriveBW is not responsible for third-party advertisements, purchases, websites, outages, decisions, content, or services, except to the extent responsibility cannot legally be excluded.
Use of DriveBW is also governed by the DriveBW Privacy Policy. The free version uses advertising services, and purchase validation uses app-store services and RevenueCat. Review the Privacy Policy before using the app.
Information about clearing local data and requesting deletion of data associated with DriveBW is available on the DriveBW Data Deletion page.
We may restrict or terminate access where reasonably necessary to address fraud, abuse, invalid purchases, security risks, legal requirements, app-store action, intellectual-property violations, or material breach of these Terms.
You may stop using DriveBW at any time. Deleting the app does not automatically cancel an active app-store subscription; subscriptions must be managed through the relevant store account.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, DriveBW is provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, availability, non-infringement, and uninterrupted operation, except where such warranties cannot legally be excluded.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, DriveBW and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or economic loss arising from use of or inability to use the app, including failure to pass a test, loss of progress, lost data, lost opportunities, advertising content, store decisions, or reliance on educational material.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.
For versions obtained through Apple's App Store, Apple's applicable Usage Rules and Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement may also apply to the extent required by Apple or not replaced by a valid custom agreement.
Apple Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement
We may update these Terms when DriveBW's services, advertising, purchases, legal obligations, or platform requirements change. The effective date at the top will be updated. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised Terms, subject to any consent required by law.
If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
These Terms are governed by the laws of Botswana, subject to mandatory consumer rights that apply in your country. Disputes will be handled in the courts of Botswana unless applicable law requires otherwise.
