Crossroads DuelTerms of Use

1. Accepting these terms

By creating an account or playing Crossroads Duel, you agree to these terms. When you create an account, the app asks you to accept them, and we record the date and version you accepted. If you do not agree, please do not use the game.

2. Age

You must be 13 or older to create an account and play. If you are younger than 18, we recommend that you read these terms together with a parent or guardian.

3. Your account

• Keep your password secret, and don't use it for anything else. If you think someone else knows it, email us.
• If you sign in with Google, keep your Google account safe too: anyone who can use it can sign in to your game account. If you think someone else did, email us.
• An account belongs to one person. Don't share, sell or give away your account, and don't use someone else's.
• Use an email address that belongs to you.
• Your username must not be offensive, hateful, sexual or threatening, and must not pretend to be someone else (another player, a real person or the developer). We may suspend or delete accounts whose usernames break this rule.
• Tip: don't put your real name, phone number or other personal details in your username. Other players can see it.

4. Fair play

Duels are only fun when they are fair. You must not:

• cheat in any way, including arranging results with other players or losing on purpose to give someone rating or coins;
• use a modified, hacked or unofficial version of the app, or tools that change how it works;
• use bots, scripts, macros or other automation to play for you;
• exploit bugs. If you find one, please tell us instead;
• attack the service: for example overloading the server, trying to get into accounts or parts of the server that are not yours, or disturbing other players' matches or connections.

If you break these rules, we may cancel or correct results, ratings, stats, coins, items, Reputation or feat progress, and suspend or ban your account.

5. Coins, items and purchases

• You earn coins by winning matches, clearing Arcade stages and finishing the day's target practice course. How many coins can be earned per day is limited. You can also buy coins, and the founder's pack, in the app through Google Play. You spend coins on items in the Shop.
• Coins and items (looks, hats, chest pieces, guns and finishes), whether earned or bought, are a limited licence to use them in the game. They are not your property and have no real-world money value. They cannot be sold, exchanged, moved to another account or cashed out.
• What you can buy is cosmetic or coins only. Nothing you can buy makes you aim, shoot or hit better or take less damage, and nothing you buy is random (no loot boxes). Buying coins never skips a Reputation level: an item still needs its Reputation level before it can be bought with coins. Showman and Fabled items, Arcade boss items and feat items can only be earned by playing.
• The founder's pack (the First Gong look and coins) can be bought once per account, from Reputation 20, for as long as we offer it. We may stop offering it at any time. If you bought it, you keep it.
• Prices and payment. Google Play shows the price in your currency, including tax where Google collects it, and takes the payment under its own terms. We never see your card or other payment details.
• Refunds. Refunds go through Google Play, under Google Play's refund policies: you can ask for one in the Google Play app or on the Google Play website. If a purchase is refunded or charged back, we take back what it gave: its coins, as far as your balance allows (a balance never goes below zero), and its items (an item you were wearing is replaced by the default one).
• A purchase is delivered to the game account it was bought for. If the game server can't confirm it with Google, the app tries again later; if a purchase is never confirmed, Google refunds it automatically after three days.
• We may adjust or reset coins, items, Reputation and feat progress, for example to fix errors, to undo the effects of cheating or when we change the game. We will not use this to take away what you paid for, except after a refund or chargeback or under sections 4 and 7.
• Coins and items, earned or bought, are lost if your account is deleted or banned, or if the game ends. If we decide to end the game, we will say so in the app at least 30 days before the server stops, and stop selling coins and packs from that day.
• Reputation and item tiers have no money value. Reputation can't be bought, sold or transferred.
• Nothing in these terms limits the rights you have under the consumer law of your country.

6. Availability

• The game is free to play (purchases are optional) and works only online, so you need an internet connection.
• The game runs on a rented server. It can be offline at times, for example during maintenance, during updates or if our hosting company has a problem.
• You may need to update the app to keep playing.
• We may change, add or remove features, and we may stop offering the game at any time.

7. Suspension and ending your account

• We may suspend or ban accounts that break these terms, harm other players or put the game at risk. If you think we made a mistake, email us.
• You can stop playing at any time and delete your account: in the app (Settings → Account → Delete account) or on the delete account page. What happens to your data is explained in the Privacy Policy.

8. Who owns the game

• Crossroads Duel, including its art, sounds and code, belongs to the developer. You may install the app and play the game for your own, non-commercial use.
• Do not copy, sell or redistribute the game or its art and sounds, except where the law or an open-source licence allows it.
• The app contains open-source software, which is used under its own licences. You can read them in the app under Settings → About → Open-source licences. Nothing in these terms limits your rights under those licences.

9. Play safely

With motion controls you move your phone quickly. Hold it firmly, make sure you have enough space, watch out for people and things around you, and don't play while walking, cycling or driving.

10. No guarantees

The game is provided “as is” and “as available”. As far as the law allows, we make no promises that it will always be available, work without errors, or that ratings, stats, coins or items will never be lost.

11. Limitation of liability

As far as the law allows, the developer is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, for lost data, ratings, stats, coins or items, or for damage that happens while you play (for example a dropped phone). Nothing in these terms limits any liability that cannot be limited by law, or takes away rights you have as a consumer under the law that applies to you.

12. Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. When we do, we update this page and the version date at the top, and we may ask you to accept the new version in the app. If you keep playing after a change, you accept the new terms. If you do not agree, stop playing and delete your account.

13. General

• If you have a problem with the game, please email us first. Most things can be sorted out that way.
• Disputes are subject to applicable law.
• If a part of these terms turns out to be invalid, the rest still applies.
