Terms of Use
Last updated: August 7, 2026
Agreement to These Terms
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Grange Dev Group ("we," "us," "our") governing your access to and use of the ZYRNTOPO application, in any distribution — Android, installable web app (PWA), desktop builds, and any future platform we release ZYRNTOPO on — together with this website (collectively, the "Service"). By downloading, installing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the Service.
If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization (for example, a search-and-rescue unit or guide service), you're confirming you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
Who Can Use ZYRNTOPO
You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction to use the Service. The Service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly allow anyone under 13 to use it, consistent with our Privacy Policy. If your region sets a higher minimum age for agreeing to online terms without a parent or guardian, that higher age applies to you.
License to Use the App
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use ZYRNTOPO on devices you own or control, for your own lawful personal or organizational field use. This license does not give you any ownership interest in the app.
You agree not to:
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits despite this restriction.
- Resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the app or any beta APK outside the channels we publish (Google Play, our website, or an app store we list on).
- Remove or obscure any proprietary notices in the app or on this site.
- Use the Service to build a competing product using our source, assets, or trademarks.
- Circumvent any purchase, licensing, or access-control mechanism in the Service, including the ZYRNTOPO Pro license check.
ZYRNTOPO makes use of open-source software and open geospatial data (including OpenStreetMap contributors under the Open Database License). Those components remain governed by their own licenses; nothing here restricts rights you separately hold under them.
ZYRNTOPO Pro, Pricing, and Payments
ZYRNTOPO Pro is tied to a ZYRNTOPO account, so a single purchase unlocks Pro across the app, web, and desktop. Your Pro license is verified on your device and does not require a continuous connection to us; see our Privacy Policy for the account data we hold.
What you are buying. ZYRNTOPO Pro unlocks the Pro features on your ZYRNTOPO account, across every platform we support. There are two ways to buy it, and which one you chose is shown on the checkout page before you pay.
The permanent unlock is a single payment. It is yours for good: it does not expire, nothing renews, nothing is charged again, and there is nothing to cancel. If we ever stop selling ZYRNTOPO or shut down the licence server, a permanent unlock you have already bought keeps working — the app verifies it on your device rather than asking us.
The monthly plan is a subscription. It is charged once a month, automatically, until you cancel it. You may cancel at any time and without giving a reason, from the link in your purchase receipt or by emailing us; Pro then continues to the end of the period you have already paid for and is not charged again. If a payment fails we will retry it for a short period before access ends, so a card that expires does not cut you off immediately. We will tell you before the recurring price changes.
Neither includes any hosted service, storage, or support commitment beyond the app itself, and neither entitles you to future paid products we may release separately. The checkout page states the exact price, currency and total before you pay; that page, at the moment you pay, is what governs.
How payment works. Where a purchase is offered through an app store, it is processed by that store's own billing system — Google Play Billing, the App Store, or the Microsoft Store — and that store is the seller for that transaction. For direct purchases on this website, payment is processed by the third-party provider named on the checkout page, acting as merchant of record: that provider is the seller of record, invoices you, and collects any VAT, GST or sales tax due where you live. We never see or store your card details. Depending on your country, tax may be added at checkout or already included in the displayed price; either way the total is shown before you confirm.
Immediate delivery. A Pro unlock is digital content delivered as soon as payment succeeds. At checkout we ask you to consent to that immediate delivery and to acknowledge what it means for the statutory right of withdrawal in the EU, EEA and UK. That interacts with your cancellation rights — section 4 of the Refund Policy explains exactly how, including when the 14-day statutory right still applies.
Refunds. Our Refund Policy is part of these Terms and sets out the whole picture: a 14-day, no-reason refund on purchases made directly from us; refunds on store purchases handled by Google, Apple or Microsoft under their own rules, because that store took the payment; and your statutory rights, which nothing here reduces. If a refund is issued, the Pro entitlement on the account is revoked — but nothing on your device is touched, and the free app keeps working.
Price changes. We may change what Pro costs, or what it includes, for future purchases. A price change never reaches back to a purchase you already made: what you bought stays unlocked at the price you paid.
Transfers and account closure. You may transfer your Pro license to another ZYRNTOPO account, or close your account and delete its data, from the account page.
We may change ZYRNTOPO Pro's price, the specific features it includes, or the way it is sold, over time. We may also introduce other paid options in the future — for example additional one-time unlocks, or a subscription for any server-hosted, cloud, or relay feature we add after the date of these Terms (such as an optional hosted relay for Team Sync, which today runs only peer-to-peer, over your LAN, or over a mesh). Where a change affects an existing purchase, we'll describe it here and, where required by law or by the applicable app store's policies, notify existing users before it takes effect.
Your Content and Local Data
Maps, markers, tracks, notes, gear lists, photos, and other content you create in the app ("Your Content") are stored locally on your device, as described in our Privacy Policy. You retain all rights to Your Content. We don't claim ownership of it, and — because we don't operate a server that stores it — we generally have no ability to access, back up, or recover it on your behalf. Exporting and backing up Your Content is your responsibility.
If you use Team Sync or another sharing feature, Your Content (including your live location while a session is active) is transmitted directly to the other participants you connect with, using the transport that session is configured for (peer-to-peer, your local network, or a mesh/relay bridge). See Team Sync and Peer Location Sharing in the Privacy Policy for how that works.
Acceptable Use
Team Sync, chat, and voice messages let you share a session with other people. When you do, you agree not to:
- Harass, threaten, defame, or abuse another participant.
- Share content that is illegal, obscene, or infringes someone else's rights.
- Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation with any organization, including ours.
- Join or attempt to join a Team Sync session you weren't invited to, or interfere with another session or user's device.
- Use the Service to violate any applicable law, including local regulations on land access, drone operation (for the MAVLink/drone features), or radio use (for the ATAK or mesh-radio bridges).
- Introduce malware, attempt to overload, or otherwise abuse the third-party map, weather, routing, or POI services the app connects to (see the Privacy Policy for the list) beyond ordinary use.
Because Team Sync sessions are peer-to-peer, LAN, or mesh by design, we generally have no visibility into a session's content and cannot moderate it in real time. Leaving a session or declining to share a session code with someone is the immediate way to stop sharing with them. If you believe someone has abused the Service or another user through it, contact us at the address below — we investigate reports and may restrict or terminate access for anyone who violates this section.
Not a Safety Device — Read This Before Relying on the App in the Field
ZYRNTOPO is a navigation aid, not a substitute for proper training, sound judgment, or dedicated emergency equipment such as a personal locator beacon (PLB) or satellite messenger. Always carry backup navigation and share your plans before heading into the field.
Map, terrain, and point-of-interest data displayed in the app comes in part from third-party and crowd-sourced sources (including OpenStreetMap contributors and public elevation datasets) and may be incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate. GPS accuracy depends on your device's hardware, sky visibility, and terrain, and can be degraded or lost entirely in canyons, dense forest, or bad weather. Offline maps, 3D terrain, and Team Sync all depend on your device's battery, storage, and hardware working correctly — none of that is guaranteed. You are solely responsible for your own safety, route decisions, and compliance with land-use and permit requirements when using the Service in the field.
Third-Party Services
Optional online features connect directly from your device to third-party map, weather, elevation, routing, and search providers, listed in the Privacy Policy. We don't operate those services and aren't responsible for their availability, accuracy, or content. Your use of them may be subject to their own terms.
Google Play and the Google Play logo are trademarks of Google LLC. ATAK, CalTopo, Gaia GPS, Garmin, and Google Earth are trademarks of their respective owners; references to them describe interoperability only and don't imply affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement.
Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We don't warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that map, elevation, weather, or POI data will be accurate or current. Some jurisdictions don't allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Grange Dev Group will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of — or inability to use — the Service, including any reliance on the Service while traveling, navigating, or operating in the backcountry or in a search-and-rescue context. This includes damages arising from inaccurate map or terrain data, GPS or connectivity failure, device or battery failure, or the conduct of other users in a Team Sync session.
To the extent we're found liable despite the above, our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the twelve months before the claim arose, or fifty US dollars if you paid us nothing. Some jurisdictions don't allow these limitations, so some of them may not apply to you.
What we never try to exclude. Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited. If you are a consumer, you keep every mandatory right your country of residence gives you — including rights in respect of digital content that is faulty, not as described, or not fit for the purpose you told us about — and these Terms apply only so far as they do not cut across those rights. Where a term here conflicts with a mandatory consumer right, the right wins and the rest of these Terms stay in force.
Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold Grange Dev Group harmless from any claim, damage, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms, your use of the Service, or Your Content, except to the extent caused by our own violation of applicable law.
Apple App Store Additional Terms
ZYRNTOPO is not on Apple's App Store yet; an iOS release is planned. From the moment a version ships there, the following additional terms — required by Apple for apps distributed through the App Store — apply to your use of that version, in addition to the rest of these Terms. We will also meet Apple's own requirements for that release, including in-app account deletion under App Store Review Guideline 5.1.1(v) and App Privacy labels that match our Privacy Policy.
- This agreement is between you and Grange Dev Group only, not Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the Service or its content.
- The license granted to you is limited to a non-transferable license to use the app on an Apple-branded product that you own or control, as permitted by Apple's Usage Rules.
- Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services for the Service.
- In the event of any failure of the Service to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for that app, if any, to you; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the Service.
- Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the Service, including product-liability claims, claims that the Service fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar law.
- In the event of a third-party claim that the Service infringes that party's intellectual property rights, Grange Dev Group, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
- You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a US government embargo, or that has been designated a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any US government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- You must comply with any applicable third-party agreement terms (for example, your wireless data service agreement) when using the Service.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance, Apple has the right to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
Google Play Additional Terms
If you obtained the app through Google Play, your use of it is also subject to Google Play's Terms of Service, and any purchase made there is subject to Google's own billing terms and refund policy — Google is the seller for that transaction and handles refunds, including the 48-hour self-service window described in our Refund Policy.
Where ZYRNTOPO Pro is offered inside the Android app, it is sold in the way Google Play's Payments policy requires for the country you are in — through Google Play Billing, or through an alternative billing or external-offer route where Google permits one. Whichever applies is shown at the point of purchase, along with who takes the payment, before you pay for anything.
You can delete your ZYRNTOPO account, and the data attached to it, at zyrntopo.com/account or from Settings ▸ Account & ZYRNTOPO Pro inside the app, as Google Play's account-deletion policy requires. What that removes and what is kept is set out in the Privacy Policy.
Microsoft Store Additional Terms
The Windows build is currently a direct download from this website (section 15). If we publish ZYRNTOPO to the Microsoft Store, the following apply to the copy you get there, in addition to the rest of these Terms:
- Microsoft is the seller for any purchase made through the Store, and Store purchases are refunded by Microsoft under Microsoft Store policy — generally within 14 days, from your Microsoft account order history.
- This agreement is between you and Grange Dev Group. Microsoft is not a party to it, is not responsible for the app or its content, and provides no support for it.
- Your use of the Store copy is also governed by the Microsoft Store Terms of Sale and the Microsoft Services Agreement.
- Our Privacy Policy is the privacy statement for that listing, as the Store requires, and describes every category of data the app touches.
Desktop Builds and Direct Downloads
The Windows, macOS-in-future and Linux desktop builds are distributed by us directly from pois.zyrntopo.com/downloads rather than through a store. (Android is distributed both ways: through Google Play and the Amazon Appstore, where those stores' own terms apply to it, and as a signed APK from the same download archive, where this section applies instead.) A few things follow from direct distribution, and you should know them before you install:
- The installers are not code-signed yet. Windows SmartScreen will warn you on first run, and your browser may warn on download. Every published build's SHA-256 is listed in the download archive and in a signed-off checksum file for each release — verify the download against it rather than relying on the warning. Only install a build you obtained from our own site or a link we published.
- There is no auto-update. Desktop builds do not update themselves and do not run a background updater. You update by installing the new version over the old one, or on Linux with
zyrntopo update. We are not liable for a defect that a release you chose not to install had already fixed. - Uninstalling keeps your data. Saved maps, offline tiles and everything you created stay in the app's data folder so an upgrade never destroys field data. Delete that folder yourself if you want a clean slate; the paths are listed in the Privacy Policy.
- Redistribution. You may install the app on devices you own or control, including across an organisation's machines under section 3. You may not repackage, mirror, or redistribute the installers as your own, or distribute a modified build.
Changes to the Service
We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service — including a feature you rely on — at any time. Because most of the app runs and stores data on your device, we generally can't push a forced update; you control when you update.
Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time by uninstalling the app. We may suspend or terminate your access to any online feature (such as Team Sync, POI sync, or a future purchase system) if you violate these Terms, without affecting your ability to use the parts of the app that run entirely on your device. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, and 19) will survive.
Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising from these Terms or the Service will be handled in the state or federal courts located in Washington, and you consent to that venue, except where applicable consumer-protection law in your jurisdiction requires otherwise.
If you are a consumer in the EEA or the United Kingdom, that choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory law of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of that country. Wherever you are: before filing anything, please email us. Most issues are a misunderstanding or a bug, and both are cheaper to fix than a claim.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time, including to reflect a new purchase model, a new platform (such as iOS), or a new feature. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date, and where required by law or app store policy, we'll provide additional notice. The version published when you buy or use the Service is the one that applies to that purchase or use — a later change cannot retroactively take away something you already paid for.
Miscellaneous
If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service, and supersede any prior agreement on the same subject. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
