The Company's location-based service business filing has been accepted:
no. 1357 (2026-08-04, Korea Communications Office).
These Terms set out the rights, obligations and responsibilities of Irony Company Inc.
(주식회사 아이러니컴퍼니, "the Company") and users in connection with the RecRun
(Korean name: 렉런) location-based service ("the Service").
1. These Terms take effect when posted on the service screens or otherwise notified to users.
2. The Company may amend the Terms within the bounds of the Act on the Protection and Use of Location Information and other applicable law. Amendments are announced in the in-app notices at least 7 days before the effective date, stating the effective date and the reason — or at least 30 days before, if the change is unfavourable to users.
3. A user who does not agree to an amendment may terminate the service agreement.
1. The Company provides the following location-based services:
2. The raw location data of a run (GPS coordinates and times) is by default processed and stored only on the user's device. What is sent to the server is the de-identified checkpoint record (splitSec). However, if the user explicitly taps "Publish course and save" on the save screen, that course's route (polyline) is uploaded to the Company's server and made public to other users. The save screen asks every time with two buttons — Publish / Keep private — and nothing is pre-selected. A course saved as "Keep private" stays on the device only.
3. Background collection: if the user grants the "Always allow" location permission, location is collected and processed on the device with the screen off only while a run is in progress (for run measurement). Collection stops when the run ends, and while active it is visible in the device's status indicators. Users who do not grant "Always allow" can still run with the screen on.
The Company's location-based services are free of charge. No separate fee is charged for collecting, using or providing location data. Mobile data used while using the Service is borne by the user according to their carrier's tariff.
1. The Company uses location data only for run judging and map display.
2. The Company does not provide personal location data to third parties. The following two cases occur only when the user chooses them directly:
3. The Company keeps records that allow the facts of location use and provision to be verified.
4. If the Company were to provide personal location data to a third party, it would, under Art. 19 of the Location Information Act, notify the data subject in advance of the recipient and the purpose and obtain consent, and notify the data subject immediately each time data is provided. The Company currently provides no personal location data to third parties.
1. Under Art. 16(2) of the Location Information Act, the Company automatically records and retains verification records of the use and provision of personal location data in its location information system.
2. These verification records are retained for 6 months, after which they are destroyed by irrecoverable means.
1. The Company retains personal location data only for run judging (checkpoint passage and finish) and map display.
2. Raw location data (GPS coordinates and times) is retained only on the user's device, not on the Company's servers. On-device retention lasts until the user deletes the record or the app.
3. A course route the user uploaded by choosing "Publish course" is retained until the user deletes the course or deletes their account.
4. The Company destroys personal location data without delay by irrecoverable means in any of the following cases (Arts. 11, 23 and 24 of the Location Information Act):
1. Users may withdraw consent to location use at any time (revoke the location permission in device settings).
2. Withdrawing consent may limit location-based features such as run judging.
3. Users may exercise the following rights against the Company, for which the Company maintains technical means (Art. 24 of the Location Information Act):
4. These demands can be made in the app via Profile › Contact us or through the contact in Article 7; the Company will act without delay absent justified grounds.
5. If the Company suspends or closes all or part of the location-based service business, it will notify data subjects at least 30 days before the suspension or closure (Art. 11 of the Location Information Act).
The Company does not collect, use or provide the personal location data of children under 14.
1. Where the guardian of a person falling under any of the following ("child aged 8 or under, etc.") consents to the use or provision of personal location data for the protection of that person's life or body, the person's own consent is deemed given:
2. A guardian giving such consent must submit documentation proving guardianship to the Company, and may exercise the rights in Article 5 on behalf of the child aged 8 or under, etc.
To prevent leakage, alteration or damage of location data, the Company maintains, under Art. 16 of the Location Information Act and Art. 20 of its Enforcement Decree, administrative measures (designating a location information officer, tiered access authorization and restriction, handling and management guidelines, periodic self-inspection) and technical measures (identification and authentication of access rights, access control such as firewalls, automatic electronic logging and retention of access, security software, encryption in storage and in transit).
If a user suffers damage because the Company violated Arts. 15–26 of the Location Information Act, the Company bears liability in accordance with applicable law. The Company is not liable for damage caused by force majeure, the user's own fault, or failures of the third-party routing server.
1. If agreement with a user on a location-related dispute cannot be reached or is impossible, the Company may apply to the Korea Communications Commission for a ruling.
2. If agreement between the parties on a location-related dispute cannot be reached or is impossible, the Company or the user may apply for mediation to the Personal Information Dispute Mediation Committee under the Personal Information Protection Act.
