GaARi Terms of Use

Effective date and last updated:

These Terms apply to the GaARi app for Android and iPhone/iPad (“GaARi – AR Car Sim & Drive” on Google Play and “GaARi: AR Car Visualizer Drive” on the App Store; Android app ID com.SecundumReality.Gaari, App Store ID 1629459924), published by Secundum Reality.

The short version

  • GaARi is free to download. There is no account and nothing to buy.
  • It is supported by ads from Google AdMob, and some cars are unlocked by choosing to watch a rewarded ad.
  • Stay aware of your surroundings while using AR, and never use GaARi while driving a real vehicle.
  • The 3D cars are representations for fun and visualisation. They are not exact specifications, offers to sell, or endorsed by any car maker.

By installing or using GaARi, you agree to these Terms and to the GaARi Privacy Policy.

1. Who we are and what these Terms cover

GaARi is developed and published by Secundum Reality ("we", "us", "our"), Islamabad, Pakistan. Secundum Reality is operated by HOMEVISM SMC-PRIVATE LIMITED. On the App Store, the app is listed under the developer name Osman Ahsan Sheikh.

GaARi is an augmented reality (AR) car viewer and driving simulator. It lets you place 3D vehicles in the room or space around you through your camera, scale them up to life size, walk around them, look inside, and drive them with on-screen steering, accelerator and brake controls. You can also browse the cars in the in-app garage without AR.

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and us. They govern how you download, install and use GaARi, including any updates ("GaARi" or "the app"). If you do not agree to them, do not install or use GaARi.

GaARi is distributed through the Apple App Store and Google Play. Your use of the store, and anything you get from it, is also subject to the store's own terms: the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions or the Google Play Terms of Service.

2. If you downloaded GaARi from the App Store

If you got GaARi from the Apple App Store, your licence to use it on Apple devices is granted under Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Standard EULA"). These Terms add to the Standard EULA. If the two conflict, the Standard EULA governs your licence on Apple devices, but only to the extent of the conflict. You also acknowledge that:

  • these Terms are between you and Secundum Reality only, not Apple, and Apple is not responsible for GaARi or its content;
  • Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for GaARi;
  • if GaARi fails to meet any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price you paid for the app, if any. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app;
  • Apple is not responsible for dealing with any claim by you or anyone else about GaARi, including product liability claims, claims that the app fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws;
  • if anyone claims that GaARi or your use of it infringes their intellectual property, we, not Apple, are responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim, as far as these Terms require;
  • you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist-supporting" country, and you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties;
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, once you accept them, may enforce them against you.

3. Your licence to use GaARi

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to install and use GaARi on devices that you own or control, for personal use or for your internal business use (for example, showing a vehicle to a customer). GaARi is licensed to you, not sold. We and our licensors keep all rights not expressly granted here.

You may not, and may not allow anyone else to:

  • copy, modify, translate, adapt or create derivative works of the app;
  • reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise try to obtain the app's source code, except where the law expressly permits it despite this restriction;
  • sell, rent, lease, sub-license, distribute or otherwise make the app available to third parties;
  • remove or alter any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notice in the app;
  • get around any technical restriction in the app, including its ads;
  • use the app in any way that breaks the law or harms anyone.

4. Who can use it

GaARi is rated for general audiences on the stores. If you are under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must read and agree to these Terms for you, and should supervise your use of the app. You must also be allowed to use the App Store or Google Play under their terms.

5. Free app, ads and unlocking cars

GaARi is free to download and use. It has no in-app purchases and no subscription.

GaARi is supported by ads supplied by Google AdMob and its advertising partners:

  • a banner ad may be shown while you use the app;
  • a full-screen ad may be shown at some points, for example before an AR mode opens;
  • some cars in the garage are always free. Other cars can be unlocked by choosing to watch a rewarded ad. The unlock lasts until you close the app, and nothing is saved, so the next time you open GaARi they are locked again. A rewarded ad is only shown when you ask for one.

Where the law requires it (for example in the European Economic Area and the UK), GaARi asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown, using Google's consent message. You can change your choice at any time with Privacy Options in GaARi's settings, when that option is shown.

We do not control the content of ads and are not responsible for the products or services they promote. Ads need an internet connection and may not always be available. We may change how and when ads are shown, and which cars are free, in future versions.

6. AR and driving safety

AR puts virtual objects on top of your view of the real world. While you use GaARi:

  • stay aware of your surroundings, people, pets, furniture, stairs and traffic. Do not walk into things while looking at the screen;
  • only use AR in a safe place. Do not use it on or near roads, in car parks with moving vehicles, near water or edges, or anywhere you could be hurt;
  • never use GaARi while driving, cycling or operating any real vehicle or machinery;
  • driving in GaARi is a game. It is not driver training and does not teach you to drive a real car;
  • take breaks. Stop using the app if you feel dizzy, sick or uncomfortable.

Parents and guardians should supervise children who use AR.

7. The vehicles in GaARi

The 3D vehicles in GaARi are digital models made for entertainment and visualisation. Size, shape, colours, interiors, features and behaviour are approximate and may differ from the real vehicle. Do not rely on GaARi for buying decisions, measurements (for example whether a car fits your garage) or safety information. Check with the manufacturer or a dealer.

Nothing in GaARi is an offer to sell a vehicle. Vehicle makes, model names, logos and designs are trademarks or other property of their owners. Their appearance in GaARi does not mean that we are affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by those owners.

8. Device and AR requirements

AR features need a compatible phone or tablet with a camera, and on Android may need Google Play Services for AR. GaARi asks for camera permission to show AR; you can turn it off in your device settings at any time, but the AR modes will not work without it. The image target mode needs the GaARi target image, which you print or show on another screen yourself. Because AR is demanding, a device may become warm, and on Android GaARi may close an AR mode on a device that is too hot until it cools down.

9. Your privacy

How GaARi handles information is explained in the GaARi Privacy Policy. GaARi has no account or sign-in. Third-party services built into the app, such as ad networks, may collect information as described in their own privacy policies.

10. Intellectual property

GaARi is owned by Secundum Reality or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. This includes its software, design, 3D models, graphics, sounds, text, logos and the GaARi name. Nothing in these Terms transfers any ownership to you. Third-party content and components used in the app remain the property of their owners and may have their own licence terms.

Google Play and Android are trademarks of Google LLC. Apple, App Store, iPhone and iPad are trademarks of Apple Inc.

11. Third-party services

GaARi relies on these third-party services. Each is governed by its own terms and privacy policy:

We are not responsible for the availability, content or conduct of third-party services, or for any app or service you choose to share content to.

12. Updates, changes and availability

We may release updates that add, change or remove features, fix bugs or improve security. Some updates may be needed for the app to keep working, and some features depend on your device and operating-system version. We may also change, suspend or stop offering GaARi, in whole or in part, at any time.

13. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by law, GaARi is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory. This includes implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the app will be error-free or uninterrupted, that defects will be corrected, or that it will work with every device or operating-system version.

Some countries do not allow certain warranties to be excluded, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.

14. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Secundum Reality and its owners, employees and contractors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits or business, arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, GaARi, even if we were told such damages were possible.

Our total liability to you for all claims relating to GaARi will not exceed USD 20.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, and your statutory rights as a consumer.

15. Your rights as a consumer

If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or another country with consumer protection laws, you have legal rights that these Terms cannot take away. Nothing in these Terms affects those rights.

16. Your responsibility to us

You agree to compensate us for losses, costs and reasonable legal fees that result from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of GaARi, or your breach of any law or third-party right while using the app, to the extent the law allows.

17. Termination

You may stop using GaARi at any time by deleting it. We may suspend or end your licence if you materially breach these Terms. When these Terms end, your licence ends and you must stop using and delete the app. The sections on intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, your responsibility to us and governing law survive termination.

18. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, and the courts of Islamabad have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them. This does not affect any mandatory consumer protection rights you have under the laws of the country where you live, including the right to bring proceedings in your local courts.

Before starting formal proceedings, please contact us at the address below so we can try to resolve the matter informally.

19. General

These Terms, together with the GaARi Privacy Policy and, for App Store downloads, Apple's Standard EULA, are the entire agreement between you and us about GaARi. If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. If we do not enforce a right, that is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer these Terms to anyone else; we may transfer them to a successor of our business. Otherwise, these Terms create no rights for any third party, except Apple as described above.

20. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when the app or the law changes. We will change the date at the top of this page, and note material changes in the app's release notes. If you keep using GaARi after an update, you accept the revised Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the app.
