Terms of Service
Summary: Pog Yatzy is an entertainment game. You may play locally without an account, or create an account to use online multiplayer. Use the App lawfully and respectfully. Online services, third-party platform services, and purchases are subject to their own terms.
1. Agreement
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Hans Martin Austestad ("we", "us", or "our") regarding Pog Yatzy (the "App"). By installing, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. Eligibility and Accounts
You may play local games without an account. An account is required for online multiplayer, friends, invitations, leaderboards, and notifications. You are responsible for providing accurate information, protecting access to your account, and all activity performed through it. You must meet any minimum age requirement applicable where you live and obtain a parent's or guardian's permission where required.
3. License
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on devices you own or control for lawful entertainment or educational use. We retain all rights not expressly granted.
4. Acceptable Use and Online Conduct
You may not:
- Use the App for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, harassing, threatening, defamatory, or misleading purposes.
- Impersonate another person, misuse another user's account, or attempt to access accounts, games, data, or services without authorization.
- Cheat, exploit bugs, manipulate game state, interfere with turn synchronization, reverse engineer network services, or use bots, scripts, or automation to gain an unfair advantage.
- Submit content that infringes intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights, or that contains malware or harmful code.
- Probe, overload, disrupt, scrape, or circumvent security measures protecting the App or its services.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, copy, redistribute, or create derivative works from the App except to the extent applicable law expressly permits it.
You retain responsibility for anything you submit through online features. We may remove content, restrict access, or take other reasonable action when necessary to protect users, services, or legal rights.
5. Online Services and User Content
Online games depend on internet access and third-party services. We may change, suspend, or discontinue online features, including games, chat, notifications, friends, and leaderboards, at any time. We do not guarantee that game state, chat, rankings, invitations, or progress will always be available or error-free.
By submitting a username, chat message, reaction, or other content to the App, you grant us a limited license to store, reproduce, transmit, and display it only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, and improve the relevant online features. You represent that you have the rights needed to submit it.
6. Purchases and Advertising
The App may contain advertising supplied by Google Mobile Ads. Advertising can be removed through the one-time remove-ads in-app purchase where offered. Purchases are processed by Apple App Store or Google Play, not directly by us, and are subject to the applicable store's payment, refund, and purchase terms. We do not receive your full payment-card information.
Purchase availability, price, taxes, and restoration depend on the platform and store account. You are responsible for reviewing the purchase details before confirming. To request a refund, use the store's support and refund process unless applicable law gives you another right.
7. Third-Party Services
The App uses platform and third-party services including Firebase, Google Mobile Ads, Apple App Store, Google Play, push notifications, and native review services. Those services may have separate terms, policies, outages, or requirements. We are not responsible for third-party services that we do not control.
8. Intellectual Property
The App, including its software, design, branding, artwork, sounds, text, and content supplied by us, is owned by or licensed to Hans Martin Austestad and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. "Pog Yatzy" and associated branding may not be used without permission.
9. Availability and Disclaimer
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP AND ONLINE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, OR THAT THE APP WILL BE SECURE, uninterrupted, or error-free. Some jurisdictions do not allow all exclusions, so some of this section may not apply to you.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ACCESS, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE APP, ONLINE SERVICES, CONTENT, PURCHASES, OR THESE TERMS. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability will be limited to the amount you paid for the App or relevant purchase during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or the minimum amount required by law. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
11. Suspension and Termination
You may stop using the App and delete it at any time. We may suspend or terminate access to online features or accounts if you breach these Terms, create risk or harm, abuse other users, or where necessary for legal, security, or operational reasons. Sections that by their nature should continue, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations, and dispute provisions, will survive termination.
12. Changes to the App or Terms
We may update the App and these Terms. We will update the date above and may provide notice of material changes through the App or another reasonable method. Your continued use after revised Terms take effect means you accept them. If you do not accept a change, stop using the App.
13. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable to Hans Martin Austestad's place of residence, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer-protection law in your country requires otherwise. Nothing here removes rights you have under mandatory local law.
