Terms of use
The ground rules.
Applies to the current alpha version of RunCoached and this website. Updated 26 October 2026.
Who makes RunCoached.
RunCoached is published by Dead Villager Dead Adventurer Games (DVDA Games). By using RunCoached or this website, you agree to these terms. If you get RunCoached through the App Store, Apple’s standard licence agreement also applies.
You must be 18 or older, or have a parent’s or guardian’s consent, to use RunCoached.
Training advice, not medical advice.
RunCoached builds and adjusts a running plan from the training history your devices record. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, or prevent any condition.
Check with a doctor before you start running or change how much you train, especially with a heart condition, an injury, or pregnancy. Stop and get help if something hurts or feels wrong. You decide what you run.
Readings such as fitness, fatigue, and heart-rate zones are estimates from your data, and they are only as accurate as the devices that recorded it.
Test builds.
RunCoached is in testing. Features may change, stop working, or be removed, and a fault may change or lose your plans, settings, or reflections. RunCoached makes restore points before automatic changes to stored data, but cannot guarantee them.
Other services.
RunCoached reads data you allow from Apple Health and requests forecasts from Apple Weather. It may offer optional connections to other services, such as Oura. Each connection is off until you turn it on, and you can turn it off at any time. Each service has its own terms and privacy policy, which apply to your use of it.
Third-party service providers, including Apple and Oura, make no warranties to you through RunCoached, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. They are not liable to you for any consequential, special, punitive, or indirect damages arising from your use of RunCoached.
Warranty and liability.
RunCoached and this website are provided as they are and as available, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the extent the law allows.
To the extent the law allows, DVDA Games is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any injury, lost data, or lost training time, arising from your use of RunCoached or this website. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.
