2.1 The specific game rules and guidelines for each Game can be found underneath the Game itself or in our FAQ section.

The charged amount includes all sales taxes and other charges. Depending on which bank and/or payment processing partner you use, additional charges may be issued; we have no control over this and are not liable for compensating these additional charges if applicable. If you are unsure whether you will be subject to such additional charges then you should check this with your bank or the payment processing partner, before making a purchase via our Services. We accept payment via different payment processing partners, which are listed when you open our deposit screen and can differ per country. Our payment processing partners may have their own terms and conditions and you should ensure you agree with these prior to making any payment. If your transaction with our payment processing partners is not successful, then your purchase will not be fulfilled. Upon the completion of a successful payment transaction your purchase will be fulfilled to you as soon as possible – we aim to fulfill your order immediately at the point of purchase.

2.3 You are responsible for the internet connection and/or mobile charges that you may incur for using our Services. You should ask your mobile operator or internet service provider if you are unsure what these charges will be, before you play.

2.4 We have the right to withdraw or modify one or more of our Games or any other part of our Services (in whole or in part) without liability to you from time to time:

  • for technical reasons (such as technical difficulties experienced by us or on the internet);
  • to allow us to improve user experience;
  • where we have legal reasons for doing so (including privacy or other legal objections to the content or conduct of our Services);
  • because it no longer makes business sense for us to provide the relevant Game or part of our Services, or
  • because we have altered the services we provide.

2.5 There may also be times when our Services or any part of our Services is not available for technical or maintenance related reasons, whether on a scheduled or unscheduled basis. Our Services are ‘as is’, meaning that we cannot guarantee our Services to be always 100% bug free, however we do strive for the best performance possible and will solve know bugs in future updates of our Services.


3. Accounts

3.1 You agree that you shall take all steps necessary to protect your log-in details and keep them secret. You agree that you shall not give your log-in details to anyone else or allow anyone else to use your log in details or account. In these terms, references to “login details” or “account” include your log-in details and account for any social network or platform that you may allow our Services to interact with.

As soon as your Personal Information is no longer required for the purpose it was collected for or to provide you with access to our services, we will delete your Personal Information from our database.

 

10. Will we transfer your Personal Information overseas?

10.1 Your Personal Information may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA").

We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your Personal Information is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

 

11. How do we protect your Personal Information?

11.1 The security of your Personal Information is important to us.

We use the same level of skill in protecting your Personal Information as other similar games developers. However, since the Internet is not a completely secure environment we cannot guarantee that information you transmit via our Games will not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed by breach of any of our safeguards.
