Terms of Service

These terms set out the conditions and procedures for using the running app provided by PlayRoute (the “Service”), and the rights and duties of the Service and its users. By installing and using the app, you agree to these terms.

The Korean version of these terms is the original. If a translation differs from it, the Korean version prevails.

• ·Recording runs with iPhone and Apple Watch, or with Android phones and Wear OS watches (distance, time, pace, route, heart rate, cadence, and more)
• ·Keeping your records and statistics, and saving and sharing result images
• ·Logging in with an email account to pick up the same runs and courses on several devices (optional)
• ·Saving a run as a public course, and running along saved courses
• ·Rankings that compare the distance you ran with other users in the same country

The Service is provided free of charge. The Service may add, change, or remove features, and will announce changes that matter to users in advance through the app or this website.

The Service can be used without signing up; it tells users apart by an identifier the app creates on your device (the “device account”). Because a device account is tied to that device, you may not be able to carry over your previous account and server records if you change or reset the device. Device accounts in the iPhone app and the Android app are separate and are not linked to each other. If you wish, you can sign up under Profile in the app with an email address and a password (the “email account”) and log in to the same account on other devices to pick up your records. You can also sign up by signing in with a Google account or an Apple account (in the iPhone app); such accounts are treated as email accounts. If an email account already exists with the same email address, you are signed in to that account.

You must sign up for an email account with an email address that you use yourself, and you are responsible for keeping your password safe. If you think someone else knows your password, change it in the app. When you log in to an email account, you can merge that device's records from before you logged in into the email account; each email account can merge records only once. Records you do not merge are kept aside on the device and shown again when you log out.

Your nickname may be visible to other users. Nicknames that impersonate others or are offensive are not allowed, and the Service may change such nicknames or restrict use.

You can delete your account at any time under Profile in the app. Deleting your account also deletes all the runs and courses you uploaded to the server (including courses published to other users) and the records and personal settings stored in the app on this phone, and deleted records cannot be restored. If you delete it while logged in to an email account, that email account is deleted, and the records kept aside from before you logged in are not erased and show again. Workouts and heart rate that Apple Watch saved to the Apple Health app, and workouts that the iPhone app saved there, are not deleted; you can delete them yourself in the Health app. On Android, the records the Service saved to Health Connect are not deleted either; you can delete them yourself in Health Connect. If you keep using the app after deleting your account, a new device account is created. Section 7 of the Privacy Policy describes in detail what is erased and what remains.

You must not do any of the following.

• ·Falsify records or rankings, for example by spoofing your location or uploading travel by vehicle as a run
• ·Put profanity, hate speech, obscene content, advertising, or other people's personal information in a nickname, course name, or course description
• ·Infringe the rights of others or break the law
• ·Sign up with someone else's email address, or log in to someone else's account without permission
• ·Interfere with the Service's servers or communications, access them by unauthorized means, or disassemble or tamper with the app
• ·Publish as a course a route that passes through restricted areas or private property

If any of the above is confirmed, the Service may delete the record or course concerned and exclude it from rankings, and may restrict use of the Service if it is repeated or serious.

If a nickname, course name, or course description contains sexually explicit or obscene words, the Service may delete that course or nickname without notifying you in advance.

The routes you save as courses, and their names and descriptions, are visible to other users along with your nickname. You permit the Service to store and display that content within the Service and to make it available for other users to run. This permission ends when you delete the course or your account.

If you find inappropriate content in another user's course or nickname, please let us know at admin@playmong.com. We will review it and act without delay.

Rankings compare the distance run in a period by users in the same country. Periods (day, week, month, year) are divided according to the date and time zone of your device. Estimates may be shown while the app is not connected to the server.

Rankings are for fun and motivation and do not guarantee any reward or entitlement. The Service may exclude records suspected of being falsified.

The distance, pace, heart rate, calories, and other figures shown by the Service are reference values that may contain errors depending on your device's sensors and satellite signals. They are not medical advice or diagnosis. If you have a health condition or are starting to exercise, please consult a doctor first.

While running, you are responsible for paying attention to your surroundings and obeying traffic laws. Course guidance and voice guidance are for reference only and do not guarantee actual road conditions or that a path is passable. Please do not let the screen distract you.

Maps in the app are provided by Google Maps and Apple Maps, and place search by Google; each company's terms also apply to their use. Health information such as heart rate is read and written through the Apple Health app on iPhone and through Health Connect on Android, and its handling follows your device settings.

The app uses the open-source software and icons listed below. The full text of each license is available from its project.

• ·Google Maps SDK for iOS, Maps SDK for Android, Places SDK for Android — Google Maps Platform Terms of Service and the open-source notices included in the SDKs
• ·Android Jetpack (AndroidX), Jetpack Compose, Material Components for Android, Health Connect Client — Apache License 2.0
• ·Kotlin, kotlinx.coroutines, kotlinx.serialization — Apache License 2.0
• ·Retrofit, OkHttp, Okio, Glide, Guava — Apache License 2.0
• ·Lucide — ISC License (some icons from Feather, MIT License)
• ·Phosphor Icons — MIT License

The Android app also includes the Google and AndroidX components these libraries depend on, each under its own license (mostly Apache License 2.0).

The Service may temporarily suspend or end all or part of the Service for maintenance, outages, or operational reasons. If the Service is to be discontinued, we will announce it 30 days in advance. Records stored on your device remain viewable in the app even while the server is down.

To the extent permitted by law, the Service is not liable for damages arising from your use of the Service, which is provided free of charge. This does not apply to damages caused by the Service's intent or gross negligence.

• ·Records lost because of device failure, loss, reset, or deletion of the app
• ·Records that differ from reality because of satellite signal or sensor error
• ·Problems arising when other users use a course you published
• ·Accidents or injuries that occur while running
• ·Problems caused by sharing your password with others or not keeping it safe

These terms are an agreement between you and the Service, not with Apple. The Service, not Apple, is responsible for the app and its content, and Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app, and is not responsible for warranties or for third-party intellectual property claims. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you directly.

The Service may change these terms to the extent that doing so does not violate the law. Changes will be announced on this page at least 7 days before they take effect, or at least 30 days before if they are unfavorable to users. If you continue to use the Service after the changed terms take effect, you are deemed to have agreed to them.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. Disputes between the Service and a user will first be resolved through good-faith discussion and, failing that, by the court with jurisdiction under the Korean Civil Procedure Act. This section does not reduce any rights guaranteed to you by the consumer protection laws of the country where you live.
