Registration is only possible by using the user’s civil name, i.e., the use of fantasy names or pseudonyms is not possible; or

  2. via adoption by Runtastic of registration details provided by the user in the social networks Facebook or Google: Registration via Facebook Connect or via Google Sign-In requires the user to confirm that the selected details, which the user previously provided on Facebook or Google, shall be adopted by the Runtastic network. The user can subsequently add to or reduce such details in such user’s profile on the Platform; or

  3. if available in your country: via the registration forms provided by adidas on its websites and/or apps.

4.2. Premium Membership.

  • A Runtastic Premium Service for Premium Members, with all options and features in the adidas Running app ("Premium Membership”), is also available against payment of a certain price.

6. SPECIAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR PREMIUM MEMBERS

6.1. Subscription Requirement. In order to use the Runtastic Premium Service for Premium Members, you must (i) be a Registered User, and (ii) pay the stipulated price, including applicable VAT, if any, and any other fees or amounts associated with the Premium Services, by credit card, via AppStores, or any other form of payment accepted by Runtastic (the “Subscription").

6.2. Types and Prices of Subscription. Runtastic offers different Subscription periods so that you can choose the one that best satisfies your needs. The different Subscription types and applicable prices are available for viewing here or in the App Stores. All prices are subject to change at Runtastic’s discretion at any time. Any price changes will be announced on the Platform or in the App Stores.

6.3. Payment. Payment is made in advance for each subscription period. In other words, you can select the subscription period that best satisfies your needs to access the Premium Services. Once you signed up and paid for the Subscription, the selected validity period will be associated with your account. Payments for the entire term of your Premium Membership shall be due immediately upon invoicing. Payment can be made using different online payment systems. If Runtastic is unable to collect any fees from an account designated by the user due to lack of funds, the user shall bear all costs arising therefrom, including bank charges related to any debit entries or similar charges. Runtastic may deliver invoices and payment reminders to the user by email.

6.4. Automatic Renewal. When your Subscription period expires, your credit card will be charged automatically with the standard subscription price which was valid at the time of Subscription, i.e., special offer prices do not apply in this case, and your Subscription will be renewed for the same period of time unless you cancel your Subscription, at least prior to the expiration of your current Subscription. The standard subscription price can be viewed on the Platform and in the App Stores.

6.5. Cancellation. You may cancel your Subscription to Runtastic Premium Service for Premium Members at any time by initiating the cancellation on the Platform or via the App Store. Unless otherwise provided for in Section 7, Runtastic will not refund previously paid amounts.

7. DISCONTINUATION

7.1. Discontinuation of Runtastic Products. Runtastic reserves the right to discontinue one or more Runtastic Product. We might discontinue Runtastic Products if this is necessary to comply with changes in legislation, technical and/or safety requirements or to reflect changes in our company and product strategy and to respond to the market and competitive situation. All users shall be given reasonable prior notice of the discontinuation of a Runtastic Product. After the notification, Premium Members shall be able to use the App for the duration of their current Subscription period. Please note that during this period the two following limitations apply:

  • It may not be possible to download the App on another device.

  • Runtastic will not update the Runtastic Product during this period for any other purposes than security and conformity with the contract. This means that if the operating system of your device is updated or if other relevant third party technical services change during this period, it may not be possible to use the Runtastic Product any longer. Runtastic assumes no liability for this.

If you have purchased your Premium Membership through an App that will be discontinued, your Subscription will not be automatically renewed and will expire at the end of your current Subscription. If you have purchased your Premium Membership through another App - that will not be discontinued - automatic renewal as described in Section 6.4 shall still occur. Subject to the two limitations as described above, only if Runtastic cannot provide the possibility for you to use the App until your current Subscription period has ended, are you entitled to a pro rata refund of the payment for the current Subscription of your Premium Membership. If this occurs, you can contact Runtastic (see Section 6.8 ) to claim your refund.

7.2. Notice. Runtastic may give notice as mentioned under Section 7.1 by informing you either by email or through communication within the Runtastic Products.

7.3. Connection to the Platform. Subsequent to discontinuation of the Runtastic Product, the Runtastic Product will be disconnected from the Platform.
