Yūgen — Terms of Use

Last updated: 8 November 2026

These terms apply to the Yūgen app, developed by Matlaeva Anastasiia ("we"). By using the app you accept these terms together with Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/). Where they differ, Apple's agreement prevails for matters it covers.

1. What Yūgen is

Yūgen is a map of real places where unusual natural, geological, historical and human phenomena can be observed. Descriptions, coordinates, opening times and access notes are prepared carefully but may be incomplete or out of date.

2. Your safety and the law

• Places in Yūgen may be in nature, in cities, on private or protected land. Check access, opening hours, entry fees, weather and conditions yourself before going.
• Follow local laws, signs, park rules and the instructions of staff and landowners. Do not enter closed or private areas.
• Some places involve cliffs, water, caves, tides or difficult terrain. You are responsible for your own safety and for that of the people with you.
• A "paid entry" mark means entry was paid when we checked; prices and rules change.

3. Account

Signing in is optional. Keep access to your Apple Account secure. You can delete your Yūgen account at any time in the app.

4. Purchases

Yūgen is currently free and has no in-app purchases. If paid features are added, their terms will be added to this section before launch.

5. Content

The texts, selection, descriptions, routes and design of Yūgen belong to us or our licensors. You may use them for your personal, non-commercial use within the app. Do not copy, scrape or redistribute the content in bulk.

Notes, places and collections you create remain yours. You give us only the permission needed to store and sync them for you.

6. Acceptable use

Do not misuse the app: do not try to break or bypass its security, interfere with the service, or use it to break the law.

7. Disclaimer and liability

The app is provided "as is". To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for losses arising from reliance on the information in the app, from visits to places listed in it, or from temporary unavailability of the service. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, or your statutory rights as a consumer.

8. Changes and termination

We may update the app and these terms. If the changes are significant, we will tell you in the app. You can stop using the app at any time.
