Terms of Use
Last updated: August 3, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Smoky mobile application, website, related services, content, features, and subscriptions (collectively, the “Service”).
The Service is operated under the Smoky and Roya Tech Studios brands by Ali Yıldırım, an individual business operator established in Türkiye (“Smoky,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By downloading, accessing, creating an account for, purchasing a subscription through, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Eligibility
You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement under the laws applicable to you. If you are under the required legal age, you may use the Service only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. You are responsible for ensuring that your use is lawful in your location.
2. Purpose of the Service
Smoky helps users locate smoking areas and may provide maps, directions, place details, opening hours, accessibility information, photographs, notices, and related information. The Service is provided for information and convenience only. We do not guarantee that:
- a listed smoking area currently exists or permits smoking;
- a location is open, accessible, safe, or available;
- coordinates, routes, hours, images, or descriptions are accurate;
- information supplied by third parties is complete or current.
Rules, venue policies, access conditions, and local circumstances can change without notice. Always follow applicable law, posted signs, venue rules, and instructions from owners, staff, and authorities. The Service is not legal, medical, health, safety, or travel advice.
3. Health Notice
Smoking and exposure to tobacco smoke involve serious health risks. Smoky does not encourage, promote, recommend, or endorse smoking or the use of tobacco, nicotine, vaping, or related products. The Service only provides location information to users who independently seek it. You remain solely responsible for your decisions and conduct.
4. Accounts
If an account is required, you agree to:
- provide accurate, current information and keep it updated;
- keep your login credentials secure;
- notify us promptly of suspected unauthorized use;
- accept responsibility for account activity, where lawful.
You may not impersonate anyone, use false information, transfer an account without permission, or act for another person without authority. We may require verification or additional security measures.
5. License and Acceptable Use
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to use the Service for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not:
- copy, sell, rent, sublicense, distribute, or exploit the Service;
- reverse engineer or attempt to obtain source code, except where law prohibits that restriction;
- bypass access controls, subscriptions, rate limits, or protections;
- scrape, crawl, harvest, or systematically extract Service data;
- interfere with the Service using bots, automation, or malicious code;
- use the Service to build a competing product or dataset;
- remove proprietary notices or misuse third-party map data;
- use the Service for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or harmful acts.
No rights are granted except those expressly stated in these Terms.
6. Free Features, Limits, and Advertising
Free access may be subject to quotas, availability, geography, device, account, or other conditions. We may modify or remove free limits where permitted by law. The Service may show advertisements. Rewarded ads may provide temporary credits only when completion is confirmed by the ad provider. We do not guarantee any ad, reward, credit, or free feature.
Credits, rewards, and promotional benefits:
- have no monetary value and cannot be transferred or exchanged;
- may expire or be limited by account, device, territory, or campaign;
- may be revoked for fraud, abuse, technical error, or provider rejection.
7. Smoky Pro and Auto-Renewable Subscriptions
Smoky may offer auto-renewable weekly, monthly, yearly, or other plans. Benefits may include increased route usage, fewer ads, and premium map features. The purchase screen controls the exact plan name, duration, benefits, price, currency, trial terms, and billing period.
7.1 Billing and renewal
Apple purchases are billed to your Apple Account and Google Play purchases to your Google Play account. Unless cancelled before the end of the current billing period, a subscription renews automatically as disclosed by the store, which may charge shortly before renewal.
7.2 Managing and cancelling
Manage or cancel through your Apple or Google Play subscription settings. Deleting Smoky or your account does not cancel an app-store subscription. Cancellation normally takes effect after the current paid period.
7.3 Restoring purchases
Where supported, eligible purchases may be restored using the store account used to buy them. We may verify entitlements through Apple, Google, RevenueCat, or another subscription-management provider.
7.4 Trials and offers
Trials, introductory prices, discounts, and other offers may be limited, changed, or discontinued. Unless cancelled before the disclosed period ends, an offer may convert to a paid subscription at the displayed price.
7.5 Feature changes
We may improve, add, replace, reorganize, or discontinue subscription features. We will not intentionally remove an essential paid benefit during an active period without reasonable notice or a legally required remedy. Immediate changes may be made for security, legal compliance, fraud prevention, technical integrity, or platform requirements.
8. Prices and Taxes
Prices may vary by country, currency, platform, tax, exchange rate, promotion, and store tier. Apple or Google may calculate and collect taxes. Price changes are handled under applicable law and store rules, including notice or consent where required. Different lawful offers or packages may be available to different users or territories.
9. Refunds and Billing Disputes
Apple or Google processes store payments. Refund requests generally must be made to the store and are decided under store rules and mandatory consumer law. If a purchase is refunded, reversed, revoked, expires, or becomes invalid, we may remove its premium access. Nothing here limits a non-waivable refund, withdrawal, or consumer right.
10. Maps, Directions, and Location Information
Third parties may supply routes, estimates, map pins, entrances, paths, and place details. Actual conditions may be unsafe, private, inaccessible, restricted, or closed. Use your judgment and follow road rules, property boundaries, safety notices, and local law. Never use the Service while it would distract you from driving, cycling, walking safely, or operating machinery.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for injury, loss, delay, trespass, fines, or penalties caused by reliance on directions or place information.
11. Third-Party Services
The Service may rely on Apple, Google, map and location providers, advertising and analytics providers, cloud hosts, authentication providers, and subscription platforms. Their own terms and privacy policies may apply. We do not control their availability, accuracy, security, content, or practices and may change providers at any time.
12. Feedback and Submissions
If you submit corrections, suggestions, feedback, photographs, descriptions, reviews, or other content, you retain your lawful ownership. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, adapt, translate, modify, publish, display, distribute, analyze, and use it to operate, improve, moderate, secure, support, and promote Smoky and related Roya Tech Studios services. This license lasts as reasonably necessary for those purposes, subject to law and our Privacy Policy.
You represent that your submission:
- is yours or is submitted with permission;
- is accurate to the best of your knowledge;
- does not violate privacy, intellectual-property, or contractual rights;
- is not unlawful, misleading, defamatory, abusive, or harmful.
We may review, reject, edit, retain, or remove submissions where lawful.
13. Data and Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we process data such as install identifiers, subscription status, location-related requests, searches, route activity, device information, diagnostics, advertising events, and submissions. We may create information that is aggregated or de-identified so that it does not reasonably identify a person and use it for lawful analytics, research, security, and product development. A change to these Terms does not authorize processing that privacy law prohibits.
14. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its software, interface, designs, branding, databases, text, graphics, icons, logos, compiled place information, and original content, is owned by or licensed to us and protected by law. Smoky, Roya Tech Studios, and associated branding may not be used without written permission. Third-party maps, marks, data, and content remain their owners’ property.
15. Availability and Service Changes
We may update, restrict, suspend, replace, or discontinue the Service. We do not guarantee continuous availability, unchanged features, support for every device or territory, permanent data retention, or error-free operation. Updates may be required for security, law, compatibility, or operations. Where reasonably possible, we will notify users before permanently ending a material paid service.
16. Suspension and Termination
We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access where we reasonably believe you violated these Terms, acted unlawfully or fraudulently, bypassed protections, created risk, or where action is required by law or a platform provider. Where appropriate, we may provide notice and a chance to correct the issue. You may stop using the Service at any time.
Provisions that by nature should survive termination remain effective, including intellectual-property, payment, disclaimer, liability, indemnity, and dispute provisions.
17. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, and uninterrupted operation. Nothing excludes warranties or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.
18. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Smoky, its operator, licensors, providers, contractors, and representatives are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or loss of profits, data, goodwill, opportunity, or anticipated savings.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising from the Service will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid directly for the Service during the six months before the event or USD 50. These limits do not apply to fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or liability that cannot legally be limited. Mandatory consumer rights remain intact.
19. Indemnification
Where permitted by law, you agree to indemnify Smoky and its operator against third-party claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use, violation of these Terms, submissions, or violation of another person’s rights. This does not apply where mandatory consumer law prohibits it.
20. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms for Service, legal, platform, security, ownership, provider, or business changes. We will post the revised date and may give additional notice for material changes. Changes apply prospectively unless immediate effect is required by law, security, or platform rules. Continued use constitutes acceptance where lawful; where consent is required, we will request it separately.
21. Business Transfers
We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, restructuring, asset sale, change of control, or transfer of the Service. Personal data remains subject to applicable law and the Privacy Policy. You may not assign these Terms without written consent.
22. Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts and enforcement offices in Türkiye have jurisdiction, subject to mandatory consumer law that permits a claim in your country of residence. Either party may seek urgent protective relief. Before filing a claim, contact us and allow a reasonable opportunity for informal resolution, unless doing so would prejudice a legal right or deadline.
23. Apple-Specific Terms
For an application downloaded through Apple’s App Store:
- these Terms are between you and us, not Apple;
- Apple is not responsible for the Service, content, or support;
- if the app fails an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, which may refund the app purchase price, if any, as provided by its rules;
- we, not Apple, address claims about the app, including product, regulatory, consumer, and intellectual-property claims;
- you represent that you are not in a U.S.-embargoed country or on a U.S. prohibited or restricted-party list;
- you must comply with applicable third-party terms;
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries and may enforce these Apple-specific provisions after your acceptance.
24. Severability and No Waiver
If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remainder will stay effective. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
25. Entire Agreement
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and purchase terms shown by an authorized platform form the entire agreement concerning the Service. Mandatory law and applicable store purchase terms control if there is a conflict.
