1. Scope
These terms of use apply to the MyFootprints app. Google Play’s terms also apply to obtaining the app and making payments through Google Play.
You can find the provider and contact details in the Legal notice.
2. MyFootprints features
MyFootprints can process location data on your device to display personal footprints and travel trails on a map. Other features include manual footprints, timeline views, statistics, notes, photo references, day videos, and backup, import, export and sharing functions.
The features included depend on the particular app version and its description.
3. Location data and permissions
The quality of tracking and map display depends on factors including the device, Android version, location reception, permissions, power-saving features and map availability. You decide whether to grant location and background permissions. Without them, related features may be limited.
4. Your content and sharing
Your rights to your own content remain with you. MyFootprints does not automatically upload it to a server operated by the provider. When exporting or sharing content, you are responsible for respecting other people’s rights and privacy.
5. Backups and responsibility for data
You are responsible for backing up important content using the available backup functions and protecting external backups. Before imports or changing devices, you should create a current, readable backup.
6. Access to the online map
Valid access is required for the online map and map-dependent features. When that access ends, your previously stored footprints, travel trails and notes are not deleted as a result. Your photos remain in your device gallery.
7. Free trial and subscription
The regular offer includes a monthly and an annual subscription. Valid access, such as a subscription or valid free activation, is required for the online map. If Google Play shows you the offer, users who have not previously had a MyFootprints subscription can begin the annual subscription with seven free days. The monthly subscription has no free trial. Google Play shows the binding local price and billing period before you subscribe. Subscriptions renew automatically for another month or year respectively, unless you cancel through Google Play.
Unless you cancel the subscription through Google Play before the free trial ends, it becomes paid under the terms shown there. Your subscription, payments and cancellation are managed through your Google Play account. Mandatory statutory consumer rights and rights of withdrawal remain unaffected.
8. Warranty, liability and availability
Statutory warranty rights apply. The provider’s liability is unlimited for intent and gross negligence, culpable injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act, and within the scope of any express guarantees.
For a slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation, liability is limited to the foreseeable loss typical of the contract. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded to the extent permitted by law. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected. Uninterrupted or error-free availability at all times cannot be guaranteed.
9. Changes
These terms may be adjusted for an objective reason, in particular changes in law, security requirements, technical developments or new features. You will be informed of material changes where required by law. Mandatory consumer rights that have already arisen remain unaffected.
10. Applicable law
German law applies. Mandatory consumer-protection provisions in the country where you habitually reside remain unaffected. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
