- Retain ownership of your content
- Grant us a non-exclusive licence to display and distribute it to other users of the platform

We aim to keep RUN LANCS available at all times but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may update, suspend or discontinue any part of the Service at any time without notice. We are not liable for any loss resulting from downtime or changes to the Service.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, RUN LANCS is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to injuries sustained during runs discovered through the platform.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or via the app. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
