Terms of
Service
Plain English summary: By using Recura you agree to these terms. Recura provides AI gait analysis and ranked 1v1 running duels, it is not a medical service. Use it sensibly, don't cheat, respect other users. We can suspend accounts that break these rules.
Welcome to Recura. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Recura mobile application and website (collectively, the "Service"), operated by Recura ("we", "us", or "our"), a sole trader business based in the United Kingdom.
By downloading, creating an account, or using Recura, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
01 / Eligibility
To use Recura, you must:
- Be at least 16 years of age
- Have legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement (or parental/guardian consent if aged 16–17)
- Not be prohibited from using the Service under applicable law
- Comply with these Terms at all times
If you are aged 16–17, a parent or guardian should review these Terms with you before you use Recura.
02 / Description of Service
Recura provides two core features:
- AI Running Gait Analysis: Record a short video of yourself running. Our AI analyses your running biomechanics and returns a gait score and movement metrics including cadence, stride length, ground contact time, vertical oscillation, foot strike pattern, and related data points.
- Ranked 1v1 Duels: A competitive ranked system where you race opponents in the same division. Users progress through nine ranks: Rebuilding, Pacer, Stride Runner, Tempo Runner, Iron Runner, Apex Runner, Recura Ultra, Recura Legend, and Hall of Fame, each containing three internal divisions (Div III, Div II, Div I). Progress is measured in Recura Points (RP) earned or lost in each duel.
About duel opponents and leaderboards: Recura is a live competitive service. So that you always have an opponent to race and divisions are never empty, some duels and some leaderboard entries may be against AI-simulated runners rather than live human players. Simulated runners follow the same ranking rules as human players. We do not represent that every opponent or leaderboard entry is a live human.
Recura does not provide personalised coaching, physiotherapy, sports medicine, or any form of medical advice. Gait analysis outputs are for informational purposes only and do not constitute professional health guidance of any kind.
03 / Account Registration

- Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
- All activity occurring under your account
- Keeping your account information accurate and current
- Notifying us immediately at Mozza@recura.pro if you suspect unauthorised access
You may only hold one account. Creating multiple accounts to gain competitive advantage, evade suspension, or manipulate rankings is strictly prohibited.
04 / Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any illegal purpose or in violation of applicable law

05 / Health and Medical Disclaimer

- If you experience pain, discomfort, or injury, stop exercising and seek appropriate medical attention
- Do not rely solely on Recura's analysis for decisions about training, injury rehabilitation, or health

06 / Ranked Duels and Competitive Features
The 1v1 duel and ranking system is a competitive feature for entertainment and motivation. You acknowledge that:
- Live duels use your device's GPS to measure distance, including while the app is in the background or your screen is locked for the duration of an active duel, see our Privacy Policy for how this location data is handled
- Duel outcomes are determined algorithmically based on distance and gait performance metrics
- Each duel awards or deducts Recura Points (RP) from your account, win RP and loss RP amounts vary by rank, with win RP decreasing and loss RP increasing at higher ranks to make top positions progressively harder to maintain
- There are nine ranks: Rebuilding, Pacer, Stride Runner, Tempo Runner, Iron Runner, Apex Runner, Recura Ultra, Recura Legend, and Hall of Fame, each containing three internal divisions (Div III, Div II, Div I)
- Rankings may rise or fall based on duel results, this is an intended and core feature of the system
- We reserve the right to adjust ranking algorithms, RP values, division thresholds, and duel mechanics at any time to improve the Service
- Cheating, manipulation, or unsporting behaviour may result in account suspension or permanent ban
- Your username and ranking position are displayed publicly on leaderboards as part of the competitive feature, participating in ranked duels constitutes consent to this public display
