Simorgh Run

Terms and Conditions

Last updated: September 2026

1. Introduction

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the Simorgh Run iOS application and the website operated at simorghbridge.org (together, the “App”) by Simorgh Bridge Foundation (“Foundation,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a nonprofit society incorporated under the Societies Act, SBC 2015, c 18, registration number A0137986. By creating an account, or accessing or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the App.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least the age of majority in your province, state, or country of residence to create an account and use the App without the consent of a parent or legal guardian. A Participant under the age of majority may use the App only with the consent and active supervision of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to be bound by these Terms, including Part 1 and Section 4 below, on the Participant’s behalf.

By registering, you represent that you are in good health and physically able to participate in a running activity, and that you are not aware of any medical condition that would be aggravated by physical exertion. If you have any doubt about your fitness to participate, consult a physician before registering.

3. Personal Run Tracking

Personal run tracking is free and requires only an account, which can be opened using an email address, and the eligibility and fitness representations in Section 2.

4. Assumption of Risk and Release of Liability

This Section restates and supplements the release you agreed to in Part 1 above, and applies to your use of the App generally, whether or not you are participating in a specific event.

  1. Nature of the activity: Miles for Mehr and any other run tracked through the App is voluntary, self-guided, and virtual. You choose your own route, pace, time, and location. The Foundation does not supervise, inspect, or control the route, surface, traffic, weather, or other conditions where you run.
  2. Assumption of risk: You acknowledge that running carries inherent risks, including motor vehicle and traffic hazards, uneven or hazardous terrain, adverse weather, interactions with other people or animals, and physical exertion, which can result in injury, illness (including cardiac events), death, or property damage, and you voluntarily assume all such risks.
  3. Release: To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release, waive, and forever discharge the Foundation and its directors, officers, employees, volunteers, contractors, sponsors, and agents (the “Released Parties”) from any and all claims, demands, damages, actions, or causes of action, whether known or unknown, arising out of or in connection with your participation, including claims based on the negligence of the Released Parties, except claims arising from a Released Party’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
  4. Indemnification: You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any claim, loss, or expense, including reasonable legal fees, brought by a third party arising from your participation or your breach of these Terms, except to the extent caused by a Released Party’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

For your safety, you also agree to:

  1. be cautious of hazards in your environment and obey all applicable traffic and safety laws;
  2. run within your bodily limits, stay appropriately hydrated, and stop and call for help if you feel unwell; and
  3. in the case of an emergency, contact your local emergency number (911 in Canada and the United States, 112 in the European Union, 000 in Australia), and look up and be aware of the emergency support available in your region.

5. The App

The App provides tracking, not safety guidance. This means you are responsible for your own safety while running and must:

  1. always check your weather app before starting your run;
  2. always pay attention to your surroundings; and
  3. always and actively monitor traffic and people.

GPS measurements are estimates only and may vary with device, iOS version, satellite reception, and other factors outside the Foundation’s control. The Foundation does not warrant the accuracy of any distance, pace, route, or location data generated by the App.

6. Event Registration and Payments

7. Fair Play

Event leaderboards depend on honest results. Submitting manipulated runs (including by vehicle, GPS spoofing, or account sharing) may lead to removal of results, disqualification, or suspension or termination of your account.

8. Your Account

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for all activity that occurs under your account. You may delete your account at any time from the App; see our Privacy Policy for what information is removed and what is retained.

9. Intellectual Property

The App, including its software, design, trademarks, and content, is owned by the Foundation or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use the Foundation’s name, logos, or trademarks without the Foundation’s prior written consent.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App 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, and non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Foundation’s total aggregate liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms will not exceed the amount, if any, you paid to the Foundation in the twelve months before the claim arose. In no event will the Foundation be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, or goodwill, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. This Section does not limit liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

12. Force Majeure

The Foundation is not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including natural disaster, extreme weather, public health emergency, government action, or failure of a third-party payment processor.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms as the App evolves, with or without notice. Your continued use of the App after an update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

14. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable in British Columbia, without regard to conflict of laws principles. You irrevocably attorn to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of British Columbia for any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, except that the Foundation may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

15. Severability

If a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

16. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Foundation regarding the App and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements concerning the same subject matter.

17. Assignment

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or any right or obligation under them, without the Foundation’s prior written consent. The Foundation may assign or transfer these Terms without restriction, including in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of assets.
