Terms of Service

Last updated: May 27, 2026

Welcome to Mappu (the "Application"). The Application is owned and operated by Pegasus Coders LLC ("we", "us", or "our"). By downloading, installing, or using the Application, you ("user" or "you") agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (the "Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, install, or use the Application.

1. Eligibility and license

• Age requirement. You must be at least 13 years of age to use this Application.
• Grant of license. We grant you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited license to download, install, and use the Application strictly for your personal, non-commercial use on an Apple-branded device that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.

2. Free service and data syncing

• Free application. This Application is provided completely free of charge. There are no in-app purchases, paid tiers, or hidden subscriptions.
• No developer accounts. You are not required to create an account, register, or provide any login credentials to us to use the Application.
• Local and iCloud storage. The Application allows you to save favorite locations locally via a Realm database. If enabled on your device, these favorites sync automatically via Apple iCloud (CloudKit). You acknowledge that your use of iCloud is subject to Apple's own iCloud Terms and Conditions.

3. Safe use and driver responsibility

• Traffic law compliance. Compliance with local traffic laws, road regulations, visible street signs, and safe driving practices remains entirely your responsibility. Distracted driving is highly dangerous and a violation of local laws.

4. MapCode accuracy disclaimer

• Informational purposes only. MapCodes, geographical coordinates, routing indicators, and location data provided by the Application are strictly for general informational purposes.
• No guarantee of accuracy. We do not warrant or guarantee the absolute accuracy, completeness, safety, or timeliness of any location data or MapCode translations. Real-world conditions (including but not limited to road closures, construction, weather, or localized mapping updates in Japan) may vary significantly from the data displayed in the Application. Always cross-reference and verify coordinates before beginning your drive.

5. Third-party services and infrastructure

• Integrated SDKs. The Application integrates third-party Software Development Kits (SDKs) provided by Google LLC, specifically Google AdMob (for displaying advertisements) and Google Firebase (for crash logging and analytics).
• Limitation of control. You acknowledge and agree that these third-party SDKs operate under their own independent terms and privacy policies. We hold no control over, and assume zero liability for, the performance, uptime, data handling practices, transmission speeds, or technical glitches caused natively by Google's external software architecture.

6. Intellectual property

The Application, including its name, logo, icon, design, and code, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to our trademarks. "MapCode" is a trademark of its respective owner; we use it descriptively to refer to the location-encoding standard the Application helps you look up.

7. Disclaimer of warranties ("As-Is")

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APPLICATION IS PROVIDED TO YOU ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.

WE HEREBY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE APPLICATION WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE.

8. Limitation of liability (hard cap)

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL PEGASUS CODERS LLC BE LIABLE FOR PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE (INCLUDING VEHICULAR ACCIDENTS), OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER. THIS INCLUDES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA LOSS, DEVICE DAMAGE, BATTERY DEGRADATION, HARDWARE FAILURE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APPLICATION, HOWEVER CAUSED, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE).

WE ARE EXPLICITLY NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SYNC FAILURES, DATA LOSS, CORRUPTION, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS YOUR SAVED LOCATIONS CAUSED BY APPLE ICLOUD OR CLOUDKIT SERVICE OUTAGES.

IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FIFTY DOLLARS ($50.00 USD). THIS LIMITATION WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE-STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

9. Apple Inc. as a third-party beneficiary

• Acknowledgement. You acknowledge that these Terms are concluded solely between you and us, and not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the Application and its content.
• Maintenance and support. We are solely responsible for providing maintenance and support services for the Application. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Application.
• Third-party beneficiary. You acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple's subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

10. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, U.S.A., without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. Any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms will be brought exclusively in the courts located in California.
