GoPlants Terms of Use

Effective: on the app's launch date | Last updated: October 5, 2026

Article 1 (Purpose)

These Terms set out the conditions and procedures for using the mobile app “GoPlants” (the "App") provided by the operator of GoPlants (the "Operator"), as well as the rights and obligations of users and the Operator.

Article 2 (Definitions)

Garden records: All data that the App stores on the device, including the crops a user grows in the App, care history, seeds, stamps, thank-you gifts, and journal entries.
Seeds: In-app points received as a result of caring, harvesting, and delivery in the App. They can be used only to unlock pots, decorations, and crops within the App.
Delivery and thank-you gifts: The in-app scene in which harvested crops are sent to the “department store” in the App, and the digital items, such as decorations and signboards, received in the App as a result.
Gift card: An image showing a harvested crop and how it was grown. Users send it themselves using the operating system's sharing feature.

Article 3 (Effect and Amendment of the Terms)

These Terms apply to all users who install and use the App. The App starts without sign-up, and your agreement to these Terms and the Privacy Policy (linked) is obtained when you choose a seed on the first screen.
The Operator may amend these Terms to the extent that doing so does not violate applicable laws. When amending them, the Operator will give notice through an in-app announcement or on this page 7 days before the effective date (30 days before for changes unfavorable to users).
Users who do not agree to the amended Terms may stop using the App and delete it.

Article 4 (Description of the Service)

The App is a fruit-pot care app in which users choose a virtual crop, care for it every day, and harvest it after a set period (which varies by crop; 15 days by default).
A day in the App rolls over at midnight based on the device's date. Care missed on past days can be restored only under the rules set by the App (only the missed days can be recovered, using seeds, once per crop).
The App provides a home screen widget and notifications (3 per day by default; 2–8 selectable in Settings, and they can be turned off).
If you choose “My area” (from a list of cities and provinces, by searching for a city name, or, only when you wish, by your current location), the App fetches the actual weather for that area and reflects it in the garden's weather (rain, snow, wind, heat). Weather information is obtained from an external service (MET Norway, the Norwegian Meteorological Institute, CC BY 4.0), and the Operator does not guarantee its accuracy or connection status. If the connection is unavailable, the App runs with demo weather.
The Operator may change the content of the service (types of crops, care rules, reward values, seasonal effects, etc.) through App updates, and will announce major changes within the App.

Article 5 (Sign-up and Account-Free Service)

The App has no sign-up or login. Garden records are stored only on the user's device, and the Operator does not hold any copy of them.

If you change devices or delete the App, your garden records will be lost. Before changing devices, tap “Download save backup” in Settings on your old device and save the record file (.gpsave, a file locked so that only the App can open it) somewhere you can open it from the new device, such as a cloud drive or a messenger's “send to myself” feature. Then install the App on your new device and select that file with “Import save file” in Settings, and your garden will continue as it was. Importing overwrites the records on the new device with the records in the file (one copy of the records from before the overwrite is kept within the App). If the operating system's device backup (Android Auto Backup, iOS iCloud Backup) is turned on, your records may also be restored with it; however, this is a feature of the operating system and is not guaranteed by the Operator.
The Operator cannot recover garden records that were lost because the user did not back them up.
If an account feature is introduced in the future, the Operator will provide separate notice and obtain consent at the time of its introduction.

Article 6 (Seeds and In-App Items)

All items in the App, including seeds, stamps, thank-you gifts, decorations, and pots, are digital content usable only within the App, and have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for cash, gift certificates, or physical goods, and cannot be transferred to other users.
Seeds cannot be used to obtain physical goods or benefits related to physical goods.
The “department store” in the delivery scenes and the thank-you gifts are storytelling devices within the App and have no connection with any actual department store or shop.
The boxes and fruit shown on gift cards are virtual crops grown within the App. Nothing physical is delivered to the person who receives a card.
The Operator may adjust the types, values, and acquisition rules of items when necessary for operating the service. The Operator will not take back items that users have already received without a legitimate reason.

Article 7 (Physical Reward Events)

At launch, the App has no physical reward events, such as real fruit delivery. If the Operator holds such an event in the future, it will first announce a separate notice setting out the period, quantity, conditions of participation, and handling of personal information, together with amended Terms. Apple and Google are not sponsors of any such event and are not involved with it in any way.

Article 8 (Paid Features)

At launch, the App is free and has no in-app purchases.
If paid features (such as subscriptions) are introduced in the future, the price, period, what is provided, and how to cancel will be clearly stated within the App, and payments and refunds will follow the payment policies of Google Play and the App Store and the Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce (전자상거래 등에서의 소비자보호에 관한 법률). The Operator does not receive users' card information.
The App offers rewarded ads that users choose to watch themselves. Ads appear from the 3rd day of using the App and are limited to 3 per day for seed top-ups, 1 per day for “Invite guests,” and 1 per course for reviving a wilted tree. Rewards are given only when you watch to the end. Ads are never inserted into key actions such as opening the App, harvesting, or opening boxes, and you can complete a course without watching any ads.

Article 9 (User Obligations and Prohibited Conduct)

Users must not engage in the following conduct.

Manipulating the device's date or time, or altering record files, to unfairly obtain care, harvests, or seeds
Operating the App with macros or automation tools
Copying, distributing, or commercially using the App's artwork, characters, sounds, or text without the Operator's permission (sharing gift cards and invitation cards for personal purposes is permitted)
Reverse engineering the App or interfering with the operation of the service

If any of the above conduct is confirmed, the Operator may adjust the seeds and items unfairly obtained through it.

Article 10 (Intellectual Property Rights)

Copyright in all content of the App, including the artwork of crops, characters, visitors, backgrounds, and decorations, as well as sounds, text, and software, belongs to the Operator. The “My one-liners” journal entries that users write in the App belong to the users and are stored only on their devices.

Article 11 (Changes to and Suspension of the Service)

The Operator may change parts of the service or suspend it temporarily due to App updates, maintenance, changes to operating system policies, and the like.
If the Operator ends the service completely, it will give notice through an in-app announcement or on this page 30 days in advance. Because the App runs on the device, the basic features of an already installed App may continue to be used after the service ends, to the extent permitted by the operating system; however, updates and responses to inquiries will be discontinued.

Article 12 (Limitation of Liability)

The App runs on the user's device. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Operator is not responsible for the loss of garden records caused by device failure, operating system errors, insufficient storage, deletion of the App, backup failure, or the like. However, the Operator is liable in accordance with the law for damages caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence.
The App is not a service that teaches how to grow real plants, and the Operator is not responsible for any results arising from applying the App's care methods to growing real plants.

Article 13 (Inquiries and Dispute Resolution)

Inquiries about using the App are accepted via “Contact us” in Settings or at the email address below. The Operator will endeavor to reply within 3 business days of receipt.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. Any dispute will first be resolved through consultation; if it cannot be resolved through consultation, it will be brought before the court having jurisdiction under the Civil Procedure Act (민사소송법).

Article 14 (Personal Information)

Users' personal information is handled in accordance with the separate Privacy Policy. The Operator does not receive personal information during basic use of the App, and the information sent from the user's device to each provider for ads and weather lookups is described in the Privacy Policy.
