Terms of Service
By using the Pupnik mobile application or website (“Pupnik”), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, please don't use Pupnik.
1. Your account
You're responsible for keeping your account secure. We'll close abusive accounts at our discretion. You can delete your account anytime in Pupnik → Settings → Account → Delete account.
2. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use Pupnik to harm other users, animals, or property — including walking your dog unsafely to chase collectibles.
- Attempt to falsify location data to gain XP, collectibles, or leaderboard rank.
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or scrape Pupnik beyond what is permitted by law.
- Resell, rent, or commercially redistribute Pupnik features or data.
3. Subscriptions
Pupnik+ is a recurring auto-renewing subscription managed by Apple. Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings → [Your Name] → Subscriptions on your iPhone, or via Pupnik → Settings → Subscription → Manage subscription.
A free trial, when offered, is granted by Apple and converts to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless cancelled.
4. Walks, location data, and your dog
You're responsible for your dog's safety while using Pupnik. Real-world collectibles are seeded based on map data; we don't guarantee any particular spawn is in a place safe to walk to. Always evaluate the route before following the app.
5. Photos and content you upload
You retain ownership of photos and other content you upload. By uploading, you grant Pupnik a non-exclusive license to store, process, and display the content within the app for you. We will not publish your photos without your action.
6. Disclaimers
Pupnik is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation, error-free results, or specific health outcomes from increased walking. Pupnik is not a fitness or veterinary product.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Pupnik's aggregate liability for any claim arising from these Terms is limited to the amount you paid Pupnik in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or $50, whichever is greater.
8. Changes
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced in-app and by email. If you continue to use Pupnik after a change, you accept the updated Terms.
