RanMatch Terms of Service

  • Document version: 2026-10-16
  • Last updated: October 16, 2026
  • Application: From the date this version is presented to you in the app; any required acceptance or explicit consent is obtained separately before the relevant operation.

1. Parties and acceptance

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the RanMatch mobile application and related services (the “Service”). The Service is provided by Halil İbrahim Tayfur (“RanMatch,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

When you accept these Terms during account registration, the usage rules described here and the incorporated Community and Safety Guidelines apply to your account. Do not create an account if you do not accept the Terms. The Privacy Policy provides information about personal-data processing; reading it or accepting these Terms does not constitute explicit consent to all processing. Any required explicit consent must be obtained separately for the specific processing. You do not waive your statutory rights.

Unless a custom end-user license agreement is expressly provided, the license for the RanMatch application on Apple platforms is governed by Apple’s Standard End User License Agreement. These Terms govern the RanMatch account, social features, user content, activities, paid features, and subscription services.

2. Eligibility and 18+ requirement

RanMatch is intended only for people who are at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding agreement. The date of birth and age information you provide must be accurate.

We may suspend or delete an account if we determine that its user is under 18 or has provided misleading age information. If you believe a person under 18 is using RanMatch, contact support@ranmatch.com.

You may not use RanMatch if use of the Service is prohibited in your country or would violate applicable sanctions or export restrictions.

3. Nature of the Service

RanMatch is a social platform that helps adult users discover one another based on sport and physical-activity interests, match by mutual choice, exchange messages, create activities, and join activities.

RanMatch:

  • is not designed as a romantic dating service;
  • is not a gym, event organizer, tour operator, healthcare provider, or emergency service;
  • does not guarantee a user’s identity, background, health, skill, intent, or conduct;
  • does not guarantee a match, a particular result, uninterrupted availability, or that a user-created activity will take place.

A profile-verification badge indicates only completion of a particular photo-comparison or review step. It does not establish that official identity, age, criminal record, professional qualifications, or health have been checked. Automated comparison can produce false positive or false negative results. A badge, rating, review, or recommendation does not guarantee a person’s safety, honesty, ability, or future conduct. RanMatch’s statutory duties concerning its own service remain unaffected.

4. Account registration and security

You must provide current, accurate information that belongs to you. You may not impersonate another person, create a deceptive profile, sell or rent your account, or share it without authorization.

You are responsible for protecting your password and device access. If you suspect unauthorized use, change your password promptly and contact support@ranmatch.com.

You are responsible, to the extent provided by law, for your own actions and consequences caused by your culpable breach of account-security obligations. Use of an account alone does not establish that you performed every action or are liable for every loss. RanMatch’s own security duties remain unaffected. Keep your account information up to date.

5. Profiles, discovery, and location

Your profile name, age, photos, biography, sport/activity preferences, experience level, interests, languages, education/work information, and other profile fields you choose may be shown to other RanMatch users. Remember that other people may save or take screenshots of information you share online.

Device location may be used to show nearby users and distance. Location shown in discovery is reduced to an approximate area. If you share an exact meeting point for an activity, that information should be disclosed only to people authorized to access that activity. Think carefully before sharing a home, work, or otherwise sensitive location.

You can change location permissions in device settings, although proximity, distance, or meeting features may then be unavailable.

In Travel mode, discovery and distances use your selected city center; the selection does not mean that a person is physically there. The selected city and Travel mode status may be shown to users who can view your profile. You can turn the mode off or change the city.

6. User Content and the license you grant

Profile photos, biographies, messages, images, GIFs, audio recordings, activity descriptions, cover images, comments, ratings, reports, and other materials you upload are “User Content.”

You retain ownership of your User Content. By uploading it, you grant RanMatch a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license, including necessary sublicenses to service providers, only to the extent needed to host, store, transmit, display, technically adapt, back up, secure, and support that content as part of the Service. This license ends when the content is removed from the Service and active systems, except for records that must lawfully be retained, safety records, and ordinary backup cycles.

You may upload only content you have the right to share. You are responsible for ensuring that your User Content complies with law, these Terms, and the Community Guidelines.

7. Acceptable use

When using RanMatch, you may not engage in:

  • harassment, threats, hate speech, discrimination, bullying, stalking, or unwanted sexual conduct;
  • fake accounts, impersonation, fraud, spam, chain messages, or unauthorized commercial promotion;
  • illegal, harmful, violent, exploitative content or conduct that puts anyone’s safety at risk;
  • inviting minors to the Service, sexual content involving minors, or conduct that endangers children;
  • disclosing another person’s private information, exact location, or contact information without permission;
  • infringement of intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
  • circumvention of security, unauthorized reverse engineering, bots, scraping, or conduct that disrupts the Service;
  • manipulation of ratings, verification status, attendance records, subscription entitlements, or usage quotas;
  • use of RanMatch for crime, illegal gambling, dangerous-product sales, or any other unlawful purpose.

The Community and Safety Guidelines form part of this section.

8. Sport, activity, and in-person safety

Sport and physical activities can involve injury, illness, property loss, and other risks. Before participating, assess whether an activity is appropriate for you, including its equipment, weather, route, organizer, participants, and your own health. Consult a qualified health professional where appropriate.

You decide whether to communicate with or meet people found through RanMatch. Take reasonable precautions, such as meeting in public first, telling a trusted person about your plans, arranging your own transportation, and contacting the local emergency number when necessary.

For user-created activities, the organizer is responsible for accurate information, required permits, any professional authorization and insurance, suitable equipment, and safety measures within their control. Participants decide whether participation is appropriate for their own abilities and circumstances. Listing, recommending, or promoting an activity for payment does not mean RanMatch organizes, supervises, insures, or endorses it. Unless expressly undertaking that role, RanMatch is not a party to the activity agreement between users; its statutory obligations for its own acts and omissions remain. These statements are not an advance waiver of remedies or compensation for injury.

9. Messaging and media

Matching and activity features may allow users to exchange text, photos, GIFs, and audio messages. A recipient may save or share what you send. Do not send unnecessary sensitive, financial, or private information.

Short-lived typing status and delivery/read status may be shown to the relevant chat participants; draft content is not shared. A message report may send the selected message and up to five preceding messages, including attachments shown to you before submission, to authorized reviewers. Retention and deletion of the evidence copy are described in the Privacy Policy.

10. Reporting, blocking, and moderation

You can report inappropriate users or content using in-app reporting tools and can block users. If there is immediate danger or suspected crime, do not rely only on a RanMatch report; contact local emergency services or law enforcement.

We may investigate reports and take proportionate measures, including removing content, restricting features, issuing a warning, reducing visibility, correcting verification or rating status, suspending an account, or deleting an account. Unless prohibited by law or safety considerations, we may notify a user of a decision and offer an appeal through support@ranmatch.com.

Submitting a report does not automatically establish a violation. We assess reports while balancing safety, privacy, abuse prevention, and legal obligations.

11. Paid features, consumable products, and auto-renewable subscriptions

RanMatch may offer free features, one-time consumable digital products such as Super Likes, profile boosts, and activity boosts, and auto-renewable subscriptions such as Plus or Pro. Before purchase, the App Store purchase interface displays the product and quantity, current price and currency, and, for a subscription, its billing period, any trial terms, and included features.

Consumable digital entitlements may be used only by the RanMatch account to which the purchase is linked. They cannot be transferred to another account, sold, redeemed for cash, or earn interest. The relevant entitlement is consumed when a Super Like is sent or a boost is activated. A purchase does not guarantee that a particular user will see a profile, that a profile will be shown first, an interaction, an activity request, or a match.

  • Apple charges the payment method associated with your Apple Account and verifies the transaction.
  • If a purchase is refunded or revoked, or determined to be unauthorized, unused entitlements may be removed or the balance adjusted.
  • Refund requests are governed by Apple’s process and applicable consumer law.
  • Deleting a RanMatch account removes unused consumable entitlements from active systems and does not automatically create a refund.
  • A subscription may renew for the same period unless canceled before the current period ends.
  • You can manage or cancel it through the Subscriptions section of your Apple Account settings.
  • Subscription cancellation generally takes effect at the end of the paid period, and paid features remain available until then.
  • Deleting your RanMatch account may not cancel an Apple subscription; cancel it separately through Apple before deleting the account.

Unless mandatory law provides otherwise, we may change future features or prices. The price displayed by the App Store at the time of a new purchase applies; subscription price changes remain subject to Apple’s required notice and consent process.

12. Third-party services

The Service may use third-party infrastructure or services, including Apple, Google Firebase, and Apple Maps/MapKit. Third-party terms may apply. RanMatch exercises appropriate care in selecting and managing its service providers but does not fully control an independent third-party platform, its content, or service interruptions.

13. Intellectual property

The RanMatch name, application design, software, logos, original graphics, text, and other RanMatch-created materials are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. These Terms give you only a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes.

You may not copy, sell, license, or commercially exploit any part of the Service without prior written permission, except where mandatory law permits otherwise.

14. Service changes and availability

We may update, change, suspend, or discontinue the Service for security, legal, technical, or product-development reasons. Where reasonable and practicable, we will provide advance notice of material changes.

We do not guarantee that the Service will always be error-free, secure, or uninterrupted. Your mandatory consumer rights are unaffected.

15. Suspension and termination

We may temporarily or permanently restrict your account or particular features if you breach these Terms or the Community Guidelines, create a safety risk, harm others’ rights, misuse the Service, or if restriction is legally required.

You may delete your account through the application settings. Account deletion is designed to remove the RanMatch account, unused consumable entitlements, and associated data from active systems; limited records may need to remain for legal obligations, safety, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or ordinary backup cycles. Deleting the account does not cancel an Apple subscription.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination—including intellectual property, liability, disputes, and necessary safety records—remain in effect.

16. Warranties and limits of responsibility

RanMatch does not promise a particular match, friendship, admission to an activity, sporting outcome, or another user’s conduct. Distances, recommendations, and user statements help inform decisions; they are not professional advice or safety guarantees.

To the extent mandatory law permits, RanMatch is not responsible for loss caused solely by users’ independent conduct, agreements between users, or events outside RanMatch’s control where there is no legally relevant causal connection to RanMatch’s culpable conduct or breach of duty. Events outside its control do not provide a blanket exemption for failing to take reasonable precautions or comply with mandatory duties.

Claims for indirect loss or loss of anticipated profit may be limited only to the extent applicable law permits. This section does not exclude or reduce liability for willful misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury, mandatory consumer remedies for defective services, rights arising from unlawful personal-data processing, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be limited. Statutory burdens of proof are not shifted against the user.

No clause removes the duty to provide the Service with legally required care and security. Responsibility is determined by the circumstances and applicable law.

17. Third-party claims

If a third party brings a claim against RanMatch because of your culpable and unlawful content or conduct, RanMatch may seek only legally recoverable, documented, reasonable losses and costs having a legally relevant causal connection to your fault and breach. RanMatch’s own fault is not allocated to you; an amount set unilaterally by RanMatch does not automatically become a debt.

Information that can lawfully be disclosed will be provided so that you can assess and contest the claim. This section does not limit consumer rights, rights of defense, or statutory rules of evidence, and does not create automatic or unlimited indemnity obligations.

18. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without prejudice to mandatory consumer and data-protection laws in your country of residence. Jurisdiction and available dispute-resolution mechanisms are determined under applicable mandatory law. This section does not limit a consumer’s non-waivable rights or right to complain to a competent authority in their own country.

You may contact support@ranmatch.com to seek a resolution. Contacting us first is not a prerequisite for applying to a consumer arbitration committee, court, data-protection authority, or other competent body, and does not automatically suspend statutory deadlines.

19. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes in law, security, or the Service. For material changes, we will update the effective date and provide an appropriate in-app notice, email, or other reasonable notification. We will request renewed acceptance where required.

Changes do not retroactively remove rights relating to past transactions. Where renewed affirmative acceptance or consent is required, silence or continued use is not a substitute. Rights for paid periods and mandatory termination/refund rights are preserved.

20. General provisions

If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective. A delay in exercising a right is not a waiver. We may transfer these Terms as part of a merger, reorganization, or transfer of the Service without reducing users’ mandatory rights.

If the Turkish and English versions differ, they should be interpreted together, taking mandatory law and consumer protections into account.
