EarLocAlertTerms of Service
EarLocAlert · Android · iOS
These terms set out the rights and responsibilities between the developer (Saechan Seo, "the developer") and you when you use EarLocAlert ("the app"). By installing or using the app, you agree to these terms.
The app relies on your phone's location data and operating system features, so it cannot promise that an alert arrives on time in every situation. For anything you cannot afford to miss, please keep another way of checking.
1. The service
The app alerts you by vibration or earphone sound when you arrive at or leave a place you registered. It is free, needs no account, and location matching happens on your device. How information is handled is described in the Privacy Policy.
2. Limits of the service
- GPS error, weak signal indoors or underground, power saving, manufacturer background limits, and your location and notification permission settings can make an alert late or missing.
- The app checks whether earphones are connected before playing sound; if it cannot confirm, it alerts by vibration only.
- On iOS, the operating system may limit how many places can be registered.
3. Your responsibilities
- You need to allow the permissions the app asks for (location, notifications, and so on) for it to work.
- Put safety first when driving and pay attention to the road, not the app.
- Do not reverse engineer the app or generate ad impressions or clicks by abnormal means.
4. Advertising
The app is free and shows ads through Google AdMob: a full-screen ad after you dismiss an alert and a banner at the bottom of the home, settings and place screens. No ads appear on the alert screen. Users in the European Economic Area and the UK choose their ad consent on first launch and can change it any time in Settings.
5. Intellectual property and open source
The app's name, icon and design belong to the developer. The app includes open-source software; each license is listed under Settings → Open-source licenses.
6. Changes and discontinuation
The developer may add or change features or discontinue the service. Important changes will be announced in app update notes or on this page.
7. Limitation of liability
The app is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, the developer is not liable for loss caused by late or missing alerts, malfunctions due to location, network or device conditions, or failures of third-party services (Google Maps, AdMob and others). This does not apply where the developer acted intentionally or with gross negligence.
8. Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. For questions about these terms, contact:
