IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: Runtime Racing is a data collection and analytics tool designed for use at motorsport events, race tracks, and closed-course environments. It is NOT a safety device. Do not operate your device while driving a vehicle. Always prioritize the safe operation of your vehicle above any interaction with this App. You assume all risk for your participation in motorsport activities.

This document is a Terms of Service agreement for informational and contractual purposes. Consult with a qualified attorney for legal advice specific to your situation.

1.1 Agreement to Terms

By downloading Runtime Racing from the Google Play Store, installing it on any device, creating an account, or using any feature of the App (including the Wear OS companion application), you affirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

Your continued use of the App following any modification to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to any amendment, you must discontinue use and uninstall the App.

1.2 Relationship to Google Play Terms

Because Runtime Racing is distributed through the Google Play Store, your use is also subject to Google's Terms of Service, Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement, and Google Play's policies. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and Google Play's policies with respect to billing, refunds, or distribution, Google Play's policies govern for those specific matters.

1.3 Electronic Agreement

You acknowledge that your acceptance of these Terms is made electronically and carries the same legal force and effect as a handwritten signature. No physical signature is required for this Agreement to be binding.

1.4 Disclaimer

This Terms of Service is a template provided for informational and contractual purposes. Strategia-X recommends that all users review this Agreement carefully and consult with qualified legal counsel if they have questions about their rights or obligations.

2.1 Minimum Age Requirement

Runtime Racing is intended for users who are at least 13 years of age. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you are at least 13 years old. If you are under 13, you are not permitted to use the App, create an account, or submit any personal information, in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), 15 U.S.C. §§ 6501–6506.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we discover that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will delete that information immediately and terminate the associated account. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided information to the App should contact us at [email protected] immediately.

2.2 GDPR Age of Consent (Users in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland and are under the applicable age of digital consent in your country (16 in most EU member states, 13 in the UK under the UK GDPR), you must obtain verifiable consent from your parent or legal guardian before using the App, particularly before enabling cloud synchronization, creating an account, or enabling social features. Refer to Article 8 of the GDPR and applicable national implementing legislation for the specific age threshold in your country.

2.3 Motorsport Context

Because Runtime Racing is primarily designed for use in motorsport and competitive driving environments — which typically require participants to hold valid licenses, be of a minimum age established by sanctioning bodies, and meet other eligibility criteria — we acknowledge that the vast majority of users are adults. However, karting and junior racing programs may involve younger participants, and eligibility requirements for the App apply independently of any motorsport licensing requirements.

2.4 Capacity to Contract

You represent that you have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts under the laws of your jurisdiction. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a legal entity (such as a racing team, driving school, or club), you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

2.5 Geographic Availability

The App is available in jurisdictions where it is offered on the Google Play Store. We make no representation that the App is appropriate or legally available in all locations. Accessing the App from territories where its content is illegal is prohibited and is your sole responsibility.

3.1 Overview

Runtime Racing is a professional-grade motorsport telemetry application designed to record, analyze, visualize, and share performance data from track days, time attack events, circuit racing, autocross, rallying, karting, and other motorsport disciplines. The App runs on Android smartphones and integrates with Wear OS smartwatches as a companion application.

3.2 Telemetry and Sensor Recording

The App's core telemetry capabilities include:

• GPS Telemetry (up to 10 Hz): Continuous, high-frequency precise GPS recording including latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, heading, accuracy, and satellite count. GPS recording continues in the background while the App is running an active session, including when the screen is off or the App is not in the foreground.
• Sensor Fusion (up to approximately 60 Hz): High-frequency recording of accelerometer (G-force on three axes), gyroscope (angular velocity), rotation vector (device orientation), and magnetometer (compass heading) data from device sensors.
• OBD-II Vehicle Diagnostics via Bluetooth: Connection to vehicles' On-Board Diagnostics (OBD-II) port via compatible Bluetooth adapters, supporting 60 or more diagnostic parameters including engine RPM, throttle position, vehicle speed, coolant temperature, manifold pressure, fuel trim, air-fuel ratio, and fault codes.
• External Bluetooth Sensors: Connectivity with external Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Bluetooth Classic sensors, including external heart rate monitors (HRM), Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS), external GPS receivers, and lap timing beacons.

3.3 Media Recording

• Video Recording: In-session video recording using the device camera, synchronized with telemetry data and optionally overlaid with real-time data displays. Video files are stored locally on your device.
• Audio Recording (Optional): Optional microphone capture during sessions for cockpit audio or voice commentary. Audio is stored locally on your device.

3.4 Wear OS Companion Features

The Wear OS companion application provides:

• Heart Rate Monitoring: Continuous real-time heart rate data collected from the Wear OS device's optical heart rate sensor during active sessions, using the Android BODY_SENSORS permission. Heart rate data is classified as biometric and health data under applicable privacy laws.
• Real-time telemetry display and lap timing on the watch face.
• Session start/stop control from the wrist.
• Synchronized session data with the companion phone application.

3.5 Analytics and Driver DNA

The App provides post-session analytics including:

• Lap time analysis, sector splits, speed traces, G-force maps, and braking/acceleration zone analysis.
• Driver DNA: Anonymized aggregated driving style statistics that characterize your driving patterns (e.g., braking aggression, cornering style, throttle application). Driver DNA data is uploaded to Strategia-X servers using a randomly generated identifier that is not linked to your account or personal identity. However, driving patterns may be quasi-identifying in combination with other data, and we disclose this analytical data handling in our Privacy Policy.
• Track mapping, best-lap overlays, and comparative analysis tools.

3.6 Cloud Services

With your explicit action, session data — including GPS traces, sensor data, and associated metadata — can be synchronized to cloud storage powered by Google Firebase. Cloud sync is not automatic and requires deliberate user action. Video and audio files are only uploaded if you explicitly initiate a cloud sync that includes media content. Cloud-synced data is accessible across your registered devices.

3.7 Social and Community Features

Runtime Racing includes an integrated social community layer with the following features:

• Activity Feed: A chronological or ranked feed of activities from users you follow, including session completions, lap records, and challenges.
• Friend Connections: The ability to search for, add, and follow other Runtime Racing users.
• Leaderboards: Track-specific and global leaderboards for lap times and performance metrics. Submission to public leaderboards is an explicit opt-in action.
• Challenges: User-to-user or community challenges based on performance targets at specific tracks or events.
• Comments and Chat: In-app messaging and commenting on sessions and activities shared by other users.
• Live Telemetry Streaming: The ability to broadcast real-time telemetry data to followers or spectators during an active session, subject to Pro subscription availability and network connectivity.

3.8 Advertising

The free tier of Runtime Racing includes advertisements served through Google AdMob. Advertising is subject to the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) consent flow, which presents a consent dialog to applicable users prior to displaying personalized advertisements. Pro subscribers do not receive advertisements.

3.9 Service Availability

We strive to maintain continuous availability of the App and its cloud services, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Features dependent on network connectivity (cloud sync, social features, live streaming, leaderboards) may be unavailable when your device lacks internet access. Core telemetry recording capabilities function fully offline.

• Sign out of your account when using shared devices.

We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to maintain account security or from unauthorized use of your account.

4.5 One Account Per Person

You may only create one account per person. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent bans, restrictions, leaderboard policies, or feature limitations is prohibited and will result in termination of all associated accounts.

4.6 Account Deletion

You may delete your account at any time through the account settings within the App. Account deletion initiates a process to remove your personal data from our systems in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law, including all cloud-synced session data, social content, and profile information. Some data may be retained for a limited period as required by law or for legitimate business purposes as described in the Privacy Policy. Anonymized Driver DNA data that has already been aggregated into anonymized statistical datasets cannot be retrieved or deleted because it is no longer linked to your identity.

5.1 Pro Subscription

Runtime Racing offers a Pro subscription tier ("Runtime Racing Pro," "Pro") that unlocks advanced features beyond the free tier. The Pro subscription is available on a monthly or annual recurring basis, with pricing displayed in the Google Play Store at the time of purchase.

5.2 Google Play Billing

All subscription purchases and in-app purchases are processed exclusively through Google Play Billing. By subscribing, you agree to Google Play's billing terms and Google Play's Terms of Service in addition to these Terms. Payment is charged to your Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. We do not process payment information directly and do not store payment card data.

5.3 Automatic Renewal

Your Pro subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annual, as selected) unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Renewal charges are applied to your Google Play account at the same price as the initial subscription unless we provide advance notice of a price change.

14.1 Privacy Policy

Our collection, use, storage, disclosure, and protection of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, available at www.strategia-x.com/privacy/runtime-racing. The Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into these Terms and forms a binding part of this Agreement. By accepting these Terms, you acknowledge and accept the Privacy Policy.

14.2 Categories of Data Collected

Runtime Racing collects and processes an unusually broad range of personal data given its nature as a comprehensive telemetry platform. Categories include:

• Account Data: Email address, display name, profile photo URL, authentication provider, account creation and sign-in timestamps. Stored in Firebase Authentication and Firebase Firestore.
• Precise Geolocation Data: Continuous, high-frequency GPS data (latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, heading) collected during active recording sessions, including while the App operates in the background with background location permission. GPS data is stored locally and may be cloud-synced by your explicit action. This constitutes "precise geolocation" and "sensitive personal information" under CCPA/CPRA and comparable state laws.
• Biometric and Health Data: Heart rate data collected via Wear OS using the BODY_SENSORS permission. Heart rate constitutes biometric data under the CCPA/CPRA, health data under GDPR Article 9, biometric identifier data under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), and similar sensitive categories under multiple other state privacy laws.
• Motion and Orientation Data: Accelerometer, gyroscope, rotation vector, and magnetometer readings at up to approximately 60 Hz. Stored locally and cloud-syncable.
• Vehicle Diagnostic Data: OBD-II parameters from your vehicle's diagnostic port, reflecting engine and vehicle operational data. Stored locally and cloud-syncable.
• Video and Audio Recordings: In-session video and audio recordings stored locally on your device. Uploaded only if you explicitly initiate a cloud sync that includes media content.
• Social Content: Activity feed posts, comments, chat messages, challenge records, leaderboard submissions, friend connections, and live streaming broadcasts stored in Firebase Firestore and Firebase Cloud Storage.
• Driver DNA Analytics Data: Anonymized driving style statistics uploaded to Strategia-X servers with a randomly generated identifier not linked to your account.
• Analytics and Crash Data: App usage events, session metadata, feature usage statistics, and crash reports collected via Firebase Analytics.
• Advertising Data: For free-tier users who have consented, advertising identifiers processed by Google AdMob.

14.3 Background Location Collection

Runtime Racing requests the ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission to enable continuous GPS telemetry recording during active sessions even when the device screen is off or the App is not in the foreground. Background location collection occurs ONLY during active recording sessions that you have explicitly started. It does not occur at any other time. You may revoke the background location permission at any time through Android device settings (Settings > Apps > Runtime Racing > Permissions), which will limit GPS recording to foreground-only operation.

14.4 Cloud Data Storage and Firebase

Cloud-synced data is stored using Google Firebase, which includes Firebase Authentication, Firebase Firestore (database), and Firebase Cloud Storage (file storage). Firebase services may store and process your data on servers located in the United States and other countries. Data transfers from the European Economic Area or United Kingdom are governed by Google's Standard Contractual Clauses and Firebase's data processing agreements. See Section 18 for information on international data transfers.

14.5 Data Retention and Deletion

Session data stored locally on your device is retained until you delete it or uninstall the App. Cloud-synced data is retained for as long as your account is active. You may delete individual sessions or all cloud data through the account settings. Upon account deletion, we initiate deletion of all personal data associated with your account in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law. Driver DNA anonymized data, once aggregated into statistical models, cannot be individually retrieved or deleted as it is no longer linked to your identity.

15.1 Scope

This section applies to individuals located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom (UK), and Switzerland whose personal data is processed by Strategia-X in connection with Runtime Racing. Strategia-X processes personal data as a data controller under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulation, "GDPR") and the UK GDPR as retained by the Data Protection Act 2018.

15.2 Legal Bases for Processing (Article 6 GDPR)

We rely on the following legal bases to process your personal data:

• Article 6(1)(b) — Performance of a Contract: Processing necessary to provide the App's core features — account management, session recording, cloud sync, and subscription management.
• Article 6(1)(a) — Consent: Processing for personalized advertising (AdMob), analytics beyond operational necessity (Firebase Analytics), and background location collection. Consent is obtained through the UMP consent dialog and the App's onboarding flow. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
• Article 6(1)(f) — Legitimate Interests: Processing for fraud prevention, security monitoring, abuse detection, leaderboard integrity verification, service improvement through anonymized analytics, and the provision of social features that users have voluntarily opted into.
• Article 6(1)(c) — Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable law, including data retention obligations and responses to lawful requests from competent authorities.

15.3 Processing of Special Category Data (Article 9 GDPR)

Heart rate data collected via Wear OS constitutes health data and potentially biometric data within the meaning of GDPR Article 9(1), which generally prohibits processing of special category data. We process this data on the basis of Article 9(2)(a) — Explicit Consent. Before enabling Wear OS heart rate monitoring, we present a clear consent request that explains the nature of the data, its purpose, and your right to withdraw consent. You may disable heart rate collection at any time by revoking the BODY_SENSORS permission from the Wear OS companion app settings.

We do not process heart rate data for purposes beyond session performance analytics and the direct provision of the App's features. Heart rate data is not shared with third parties except as required to store it in Firebase (our data processor) when you explicitly cloud-sync a session containing heart rate data.

15.4 Data Subject Rights (Articles 12–22 GDPR)

As a data subject under the GDPR, you have the following rights:

• Right of Access (Article 15): The right to obtain confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to receive a copy of that data.
• Right to Rectification (Article 16): The right to have inaccurate personal data corrected without undue delay.
• Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten") (Article 17): The right to request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, where you withdraw consent (where consent was the legal basis), or where you object to processing and no overriding legitimate grounds exist. You may initiate erasure through the App's account deletion feature or by contacting us.
• Right to Restriction of Processing (Article 18): The right to restrict processing of your data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.
• Right to Data Portability (Article 20): The right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit it to another controller, where the processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means.
• Right to Object (Article 21): The right to object at any time to processing based on legitimate interests (Article 6(1)(f)), including profiling. Where you object, we will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms.
• Rights Related to Automated Decision-Making (Article 22): The right not to be subject to decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects. We do not make automated decisions of this nature with your data.
• Right to Withdraw Consent (Article 7(3)): Where processing is based on consent, the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.

To exercise your rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within one calendar month, with an extension of up to two additional months where necessary for complex or numerous requests, in accordance with Article 12 GDPR. We may request identity verification before processing your request.

15.5 Privacy by Design (Article 25 GDPR)

We implement data protection by design and by default. Core telemetry features operate locally without requiring cloud connectivity. Cloud sync, social features, and analytics require explicit user action or consent. Sensitive data such as heart rate and background location collection requires explicit, separately obtained consent and specific hardware permissions.

15.6 Security (Article 32 GDPR)

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data, including:

• Encryption of data in transit (TLS 1.2 or higher for all Firebase communications);
• Firebase security rules governing access to Firestore and Cloud Storage;
• Firebase Authentication for secure account access;
• Access controls limiting employee and contractor access to personal data;
• Regular security assessments and monitoring.

15.7 International Transfers (Articles 44–49 GDPR)

Personal data of EEA, UK, and Swiss residents may be transferred to and processed in the United States and other countries where Firebase infrastructure is located. Such transfers are governed by Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) pursuant to Article 46 GDPR, as implemented in Google's Data Processing Addendum for Firebase. UK data transfers are governed by the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA). Swiss data transfers comply with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nFADP) transfer mechanisms.

15.8 Right to Lodge a Complaint (Article 77 GDPR)

If you believe that our processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR or applicable national data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority of the EU member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. UK residents may lodge complaints with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk. Swiss residents may lodge complaints with the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC).

21.4 Account Deletion and Data

Upon account deletion (whether initiated by you or by us pursuant to these Terms), we will delete or anonymize your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law. We may retain certain data as permitted or required by law, such as records of transactions, legal holds, or data necessary to prevent fraud or abuse. Publicly shared User Content (such as leaderboard records or activity feed posts) may be anonymized rather than deleted if removal would materially affect other users' experience (for example, if your session is referenced in a challenge another user completed).

22.1 Governing Law

These Terms and any disputes arising out of or related to them or the App shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. For users located in the European Union or United Kingdom, mandatory consumer protection laws and data protection rights of your country of residence apply and cannot be waived by these Terms.

22.2 Informal Resolution

Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will attempt to resolve any dispute within thirty (30) days of receiving your notice. If the dispute cannot be resolved informally, either party may pursue the formal resolution processes set out below.

22.3 Binding Arbitration (United States Users)

For users located in the United States, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the App, or any breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, that cannot be resolved through informal negotiation, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The arbitration shall be conducted in English. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Exceptions to Arbitration: Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent unauthorized use of intellectual property or to address violations that could cause irreparable harm. Claims for amounts within the jurisdictional limit of small claims court may be brought in small claims court.

22.4 Class Action Waiver

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. IF THIS PROVISION IS FOUND UNENFORCEABLE, THE ENTIRETY OF SECTION 22.3 SHALL BE DEEMED VOID.

22.5 EU / UK Users — Jurisdiction

If you are a consumer located in the European Union or United Kingdom, you may bring claims before the courts of the EU member state or UK jurisdiction in which you are domiciled. Nothing in these Terms limits your right to bring a complaint before the relevant data protection supervisory authority or to use available alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanisms under EU or UK law.

22.6 Limitation Period

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App must be filed within one (1) year after the cause of action arose, or such claim is permanently barred. This limitation does not apply to claims arising under laws that provide a different limitation period that cannot be waived by contract.

23.1 Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable for any reason — including by reason of its scope, duration, or application — that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect.

23.2 Modification Rather Than Invalidation

Where possible, the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable in a manner that most nearly reflects the original intent of the parties. Where modification is not possible, the provision shall be severed and the remainder of the Terms shall continue.

23.3 Waiver

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms at any time shall not constitute a present or future waiver of that right or provision. No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Strategia-X. A waiver of any breach or default does not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default of the same or any other provision.

23.4 Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Strategia-X with respect to Runtime Racing and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, warranties, and understandings, whether oral or written, relating to the App.

24.1 Right to Modify

Your continued use of the App after the effective date of any modification constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must discontinue use of the App and uninstall it from all devices.
