Using MythFog means you enter these terms with the operator. You must be 13 or older. Ages 13 to 18 need a guardian’s consent.
1. The service
MythFog is an exploration record built on real movement and on-site photos. You can visit, light fog, capture two-sided cards, and after sign-in request manifestation so the server can later write the myth face. Manifestation is not instant and is not guaranteed to succeed every time.
2. Accounts
Without signing in you can visit and keep reality cards on the device. Sign in with Apple or Google is for save, sync, and manifestation. You are responsible for account security. We may suspend or end an account for abuse, unlawful use, or harm to others. The operations console uses a separate allowlisted Google login, not traveler accounts.
3. Field photos and manifestation
Capture uses the in-app camera only. Faces are not taken into the chronicle. After sign-in, every valid capture is uploaded and kept for manifestation, safety filtering, debugging, and improving recognition and generation. A copy also stays on the device. Manifestation makes a working copy that we aim to delete after success, failure, or at most 24 hours. Generated myth images are service output and stay with your card.
4. Photo and training license (training is optional)
Using an account, sync, and manifestation requires that we upload and keep your field photos. Using those uploaded, faceless photos to improve MythFog recognition, safety filtering, and generation is a separate, optional license; while it is on it also covers quality work by processors acting on our instructions. This license:
- does not include face recognition or identifying a person;
- does not include selling your original photo library to others;
- can be turned off at any time on the traveler page, and turning it off does not affect sign-in, sync, or manifestation. After you end the account, cloud personal fields, visit cells, myth images, and field photos are all deleted, and the Sign in with Apple authorization is revoked; MythFog Pass does not cancel itself, so cancel it in the App Store.
5. Prohibited use
Do not upload someone else’s likeness as manifestation material, bypass the on-site camera policy, interfere with the service, or use MythFog to infringe rights or break the law.
5A. User content and zero tolerance
The friends feed shows content other travelers upload and share (reality photos, two-sided cards, notes, and other user content). You are fully responsible for what you upload or share and must hold the rights to it. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content:
- Uploading or sharing objectionable, harassing, bullying, hateful, threatening, violent, pornographic, unlawful, or infringing content is strictly forbidden — zero tolerance.
- You can report any objectionable content or abusive user from inside the app, and you can block other users; a blocked user’s content no longer appears in your friends feed.
- After a report we review it as fast as we can and within 24 hours at the latest, remove violating content, and suspend or terminate the offender’s account as warranted.
- To report, appeal, or ask for help you can also email support@mythfog.com.
6. Disclaimer
Watch traffic and your own safety while exploring. Location, fog, generated results, and calorie / nutrient estimates from food photos can be wrong. Those estimates are not lab tests, nutrition labels, or medical advice. The service is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect loss.
6A. Safety check-in
After sign-in you may add one emergency contact email and tap I'm safe. Moving on a visit also counts. This is a contact and reminder tool, not emergency rescue. We do not call police, an ambulance, or government agencies. A missed check-in only means 24 hours passed with no tap and no real movement on a visit, not that an accident happened. Email is not guaranteed to arrive or be read at once. The contact is emailed only after they accept an invite. The notice may include the last stored location, which may be old.
6B. Flight journal
After sign-in you may search by flight number and date, and you may forward itinerary mail to a private inbound.mythfog.com address. A ticket is a plan; flight distance counts on the departure date. Lookups and confirmed flights stay in a shared catalog. Added flights do not light fog, and flight distance is never added to GPS visit distance. The subject and body of forwarded mail are kept up to 90 days, only to retry when reading fails and to investigate problems, and are deleted as soon as you revoke consent.
6C. Auto-renewing subscription (MythFog Pass)
MythFog Pass is a yearly auto-renewing subscription bought through the Apple App Store, priced as the App Store shows. It unlocks importing external history (Flighty, Fog of World), a higher Ink cap of 5, and up to 3 guardians in Visit Guardian. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and your Apple account is charged for the next year within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel it at any time in Subscriptions under your App Store account settings; after cancelling, the Pass runs to the end of the paid period. Refunds follow Apple's rules and are requested from Apple. Restore purchases brings it back on a new device or reinstall. We may change the benefits or the price; a price change is announced in advance and needs your consent under Apple's process.
6D. Life trail and AI recaps (optional, only if you turn them on)
The life trail is off by default. Recording starts only after you turn it on yourself and allow location in the system dialog, and it continues while the app is closed only if you also allow Always. You can pause or turn it off at any time. AI memory and recaps need your separate, explicit consent; when you withdraw it we stop sending immediately and delete the index already built on the server. What these features produce — stays, how journeys are split, recap text — is inference and can be wrong. It is not proof of travel, not legal evidence, and not navigation or medical advice. In the app you can clear one day of trail, delete your whole location history, export your data, and delete the account; none of these rights need a subscription. The privacy policy has the data details.
7. Changes and governing law
A terms update changes the version number; if you are signed in, the next app open may ask you to agree again. These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan). The Taipei District Court may be the court of first instance.
