You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account.

You agree not to use false or misleading information in connection with your user account and acknowledge that we reserve the right to disable any user account with a profile which we believe (in our sole discretion) is false or misleading (including a profile that impersonates a third party).

3. Gameplay and Content

We may update, modify, or remove features at any time to improve the player experience or ensure legal compliance.

The Game is free to download and play. It contains:

• Advertisements provided by Google AdMob.

Each third party may process data according to its own privacy policy.

9. Termination

We may temporarily or permanently terminate your access to the Game at any time if you breach these Terms or engage in fraud or abuse. No right to refund or compensation exists, to the extent permitted by law and without prejudice to the policies and refund rules of the respective app store.

Upon termination, your access to the Game will be disabled, and any remaining data may be deleted.

You may delete the app and stop using the Game at any time.

10. Third-Party App Stores

You acknowledge that Apple Inc. and Google LLC (each a “Third-Party App Store”) are not parties to these Terms and are not responsible for providing maintenance, support, or warranty for the Game.

All purchases and refunds are handled by the respective App Store under its own terms of service.

Both Apple and Google are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you if necessary.

11. Disclaimers and Liability

You use the Game at your own risk. Some jurisdictions do not allow exclusions of implied warranties; in such cases, these exclusions apply only to the extent permitted by law.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Studio Bitworks B.V. and its affiliates, directors, employees, licensors, and partners are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of your use of the Game.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for death, personal injury, or damages caused by intent or gross negligence.

We are not responsible for delays or failures in performance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including internet outages, natural disasters, strikes, or governmental restrictions.

15. Severability and Waiver

If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force.

Failure by Studio Bitworks B.V. to enforce any provision shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other provision.
