Terms of use

This is an English translation provided for convenience. The binding version is the Polish one (Regulamin).

Safety in the mountains

The terrain models, trails and descriptions on this website are for illustration only and do not replace a hiking map, a guide or navigation. The 3D models have true proportions but a 10 m grid, so they do not show small landforms. Trail routes come from OpenStreetMap and may be incomplete or out of date. Before you set off, check an up-to-date map, the weather forecast and mountain rescue announcements.

Mountain rescue numbers in Poland (GOPR and TOPR): 985 and +48 601 100 300, as well as 112 (topr.pl).

§ 1. General provisions

  1. These terms set out the rules for using the website koronagorpolski.com.pl (the “Website”).
  2. The service provider is TAKZEN DEV, based in Kościan, Poland (the “Provider”). Contact: the form at takzendev.pl/contact.
  3. These terms are the terms referred to in Article 8 of the Polish Act of 18 July 2002 on the provision of electronic services.

§ 2. Services

  1. The Website provides, free of charge: interactive 3D models of the peaks of the Crown of Polish Mountains with story chapters, a map of the peaks and background sound generated in the browser. It is available in Polish and in English.
  2. Using the Website does not require registration or any personal data. The agreement for the provision of services is concluded when you open the Website and terminated when you leave it.
  3. The exception is the optional, free journal of climbed peaks: it requires an account created by signing in with a Google account. The agreement for keeping the journal is concluded at the first sign-in and terminated when the account is deleted, which the User can do at any time in the journal. Entries and photos in the journal are visible only to the User, who is responsible for their content and for the rights to the photos they add.
  4. Climbers’ gallery: a User with an account may add one photo to each peak saved in their journal, with an author credit and a short caption. The photo appears on the peak’s page only after the Provider approves it.
  5. By adding a photo, the User declares that they are its author and that people who can be recognised in it have agreed to its publication. The User keeps the copyright and grants the Provider a free, non-exclusive licence, without territorial limits, for as long as the photo is in the gallery, covering: fixing and reproducing it on servers (including reducing its resolution) and making it available to the public on the Website, with the credit and caption, so that anyone can access it at a place and time of their choosing. The Provider grants no sublicences.
  6. The User may delete their photo on the peak’s page at any time – the licence ends on deletion. Deleting the journal entry or the account also removes the photo from the gallery.
  7. Photos unrelated to the peak, advertising, offensive, unlawful or infringing the rights of others (including a person’s image without consent) are not allowed. The Provider may decline or remove a photo without giving a reason. Unlawful photos can be reported through the form at takzendev.pl/contact.
  8. Before upload, the photo is scaled down in the browser (to 1600 px) and saved without metadata (EXIF), including GPS location.
  9. The Provider may develop, change or switch off features of the Website.

§ 3. Technical requirements

  1. To use the Website you need a device with internet access and an up-to-date browser with JavaScript and WebGL enabled. Without WebGL the content is available, but without the 3D scene.
  2. The 3D scene makes heavy use of the graphics card. On less powerful devices the Website reduces the number of points by itself.
  3. Sound is off by default. The Website respects the system setting for reduced motion and switches animations off when it is on.

§ 4. Nature of the content and liability

  1. The content of the Website is for information and education.
  2. Peak heights come from the list of the Crown of Polish Mountains. Heights read from the terrain model may differ from them – such differences are described at the peaks.
  3. The Provider makes every effort to keep the content accurate (facts are checked in the sources given), but does not guarantee that it is complete or up to date and is not liable for decisions made on its basis, in particular when planning mountain trips.
  4. Using the Website in a way that disrupts its operation is prohibited, in particular mass automated downloading of its resources.

  7. Photos in the place cards come from Wikimedia Commons and are under free licences (CC0, public domain, CC BY, CC BY-SA). The author, the licence and a link to the original are given with each photo. The photos have been scaled down; otherwise they are unchanged.
