Runner Training is an early private pilot. These terms describe how the app actually works today, but they have not yet been reviewed by a lawyer, and they will change before the app is offered publicly.
These terms are the agreement between you and the operator of the Runner Training mobile app (“the app”).
By creating an account or using the app, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the app.
We may update these terms. If a change is material we will tell you in the app before it takes effect, and continuing to use the app afterwards means you accept the update.
You must be at least 18 years old.
The app is not designed for children and we do not knowingly hold their data. If we learn an account belongs to someone under 18, we will close it and delete the data.
You sign in with your email address and a one-time code sent to it. There is no password.
This means anyone who can read your email can sign in as you. Please keep your email account secure, and tell us if you think someone else has used yours.
Please keep to one account. Your plan is built from one runner’s history, so a shared account produces training advice based on somebody else’s running — not merely inaccurate, but potentially unsafe.
The app builds a running training plan around a goal you choose, and adjusts it as you train. Adjustments are made by a deterministic set of rules running under a configuration we approve — the same rules, applied the same way, every time.
It also imports your completed runs, shows you what you have done, and writes short comments about individual runs.
The app is a training tool. It is not medical care, and nothing in it is medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. It does not replace a doctor, a physiotherapist, or a coach who can see you run.
Training plans, load figures, recovery guidance and run commentary are general information based on distances and durations. They are not personalised medical advice and are not tailored to any condition you may have.
Heart rate, cadence, elevation and similar measurements are imported from your watch and shown to you for your own interest. We do not interpret them clinically and you should not draw any health conclusion from them.
Please speak to a doctor before you start training, or substantially increase it, especially if you have any medical condition, are pregnant, or have been inactive for a while.
If you feel pain, illness, dizziness, chest discomfort, or anything that concerns you: stop, and seek medical advice. Do not wait for the app to tell you to.
Running carries a risk of injury, and you accept that risk when you run. Only you can judge, on the day, whether a session suits you — the app cannot see how you feel, the weather where you are, the traffic, or the ground.
Some text in the app is written by an AI assistant: comments on your completed runs, and replies in the coaching chat.
AI-written text can be wrong. Please read it as a knowledgeable friend’s remark, not as instruction.
The assistant does not decide your training. It may describe what you did; it cannot change your plan. Plan changes come only from the rules described above.
The assistant is given your training numbers. It is not given your name, your email address, or your route.
You may connect Apple Health, Health Connect, or Strava so your runs arrive automatically. You choose what to connect and can disconnect at any time.
Those services are operated by other companies under their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for how they behave, whether they are accurate, or whether they are available.
Where two devices record the same run and disagree about it — which happens — the app uses the device you nominate.
If your watch recorded a route, the app stores it and draws it for you.
Please think about what a route reveals about where you live or work before you share a screenshot of it. The app has no sharing feature; anything you share, you share yourself.
Everything you enter or import stays yours: your check-in notes, chat messages, runs, routes, your name and your profile photo.
You give us permission to store and process that content only so far as is needed to run the app for you — to build your plan, show you your history, and keep the service working.
We do not take any right to use your name, your photograph, your routes or your activities for marketing or advertising, and we do not sell your data.
The app is free. There is no subscription, nothing to purchase, and nothing to cancel.
If we ever introduce paid features we will say so clearly in advance, and nothing you already have will start costing money without you choosing it.
The app is an early, private pilot. It may be unavailable at times, it will change, features may be added or removed, and we may end the pilot.
Your training data remains yours throughout, and section 14 explains how to remove it.
Please do not try to reach other people’s data, interfere with the app’s security, collect data from it automatically, or use it for anything unlawful.
The app is for your own training. Please do not use it to provide coaching services to other people.
The app is provided as it is. We do not promise it will always be available, that it will be free of errors, or that the information in it will be accurate — particularly information reaching us from your watch or another service.
You decide whether to run, how far, and how fast. We are not responsible for injury, illness or loss arising from training you chose to do, or from your reliance on general training information in the app.
We are not responsible for the acts, omissions, accuracy or availability of the third-party services described above, or of any device you use.
Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud.
You can delete your account from within the app at any time.
Deleting starts a 30-day period during which you can change your mind by signing in again. After 30 days your data is permanently removed and cannot be recovered.
We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, or if we stop operating the app.
Your data is stored in Singapore and handled in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012.
The “Your data” screen describes what the app stores, what it does with it, and how long it keeps it. A full privacy policy will accompany these terms before the app is offered publicly.
These terms are governed by the laws of Singapore, and the courts of Singapore have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them or from the app.
If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest continues to apply.
If we do not enforce a right straight away, we do not lose it.
These terms are between you and us; nobody else can enforce them.
