Likewise, you do not own any Virtual Items that you obtained through our Services, regardless of whether you “earned” those Virtual Items or “purchased” them.

You are not allowed to sublicense, trade, sell, or attempt to sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange Virtual Items for value of any kind outside of a game.

5. MONITORING USE OF SERVICES AND USER CONTENT
We have no obligation to monitor the Services for inappropriate or illegal User Content or the conduct of other players, and we take no responsibility for such conduct. We also are not responsible for information, materials, products, or services provided by other players (for instance, in their profiles) and User Content is not approved by us. By using our Services, you understand that you may be exposed to conduct that you might find offensive or otherwise objectionable. We do not endorse any User Content posted on the Services, and nor do we guarantee its truthfulness or accuracy. However, if someone is violating these Terms or misusing the Services, please let us know by contacting us through contact@spill.games.
While we have no obligation to monitor the Services, we have the right, in our sole discretion, to monitor, record, or store your interactions with the Services or your communications with Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited or another player when you are using the Services. For more information, see our Privacy Policy spill.games/privacy. We may also, at our discretion, choose to edit, refuse to post, or remove any User Content or any other materials that we deem in our sole discretion to be objectionable. If we determine that your communications or User Content violate these Terms, Feature Terms, we have the right, in our sole discretion and without notice, to disable your ability to post User Content or to communicate with other players, or we may terminate your access to the Services entirely.
6. YOUR DEALINGS WITH OTHER PLAYERS
If you have a dispute with another player, Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited is not responsible for any claims, demands, and/or damages of any kind, whether known or unknown, resulting from or connected to that dispute. This includes damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, or data. This does not apply to users located in the EEA. If you are located in the EEA, your liability vis-à-vis Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited is as set forth by the law applicable in the country where you reside.
As part of the Services, we may offer you the opportunity to play with your friends or other matched opponents. To ensure that you always have available opponents at the right skill level, some of these matched opponents may be auto-generated players that look and play like real people.
We may allow you to use the Services to initiate SMS or MMS text messages to your contacts. You are not required to send such text messages to use our Services and standard text messaging and data rates may apply based on your plan with your mobile phone carrier. Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited does not control the recipients, content, or timing of these text messages. If you choose to send text messages through the Services, you are confirming that the recipients of the text messages have appropriately consented to receive the text messages.
7. PAYMENT TERMS
We provide some services for real money to obtain a limited license and right to use Virtual Items and/or other goods or services.
How it Works:
You get a limited license and right to use Virtual Items by visiting the purchase page in one of our games or Services and providing billing authorization through the platform on which you are playing (e.g., Facebook, Apple, Google).
When you make a purchase on any Service offered by Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited, the payment page will let you know what payment methods you can use to pay when you make your purchase. The price of the product will be the price indicated on the order page when you place your order. When your purchase is complete, we may send you a confirmation email that will have details of the items you have ordered. Please check that the details in the confirmation message are correct as soon as possible and keep a copy of it for your records. Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited keeps records of transactions in order to handle any future questions about that transaction.
When you purchase Virtual Items in our games on other platforms such as Facebook, Apple, or Google, Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited is not a party to the transaction and your purchase will be governed by the third-party platform’s payment terms and conditions. Please review the platform’s terms of service for additional information. You can also contact our Billing Support team as described below for questions concerning refunds of purchases made through Facebook or Google.
For Virtual Items, your order will represent an offer to us to obtain a limited license and right to use the relevant Service(s) or Virtual Item(s) that will be accepted by us when we accept payment. At that point, the limited license begins.
For orders to obtain a limited license and right to use Virtual Items, by clicking the purchase/order button on the purchase window or page you:
agree that we will supply the Virtual Items to you as soon as we have accepted your order; and
if you reside in the European Union (the “EU”), you acknowledge that you will therefore no longer have the right to cancel under the EU’s Consumer Rights Directive (as implemented by the law of the country where you are located) once we start to supply the Virtual Item.
You understand that while you may “earn,” “buy,” or “purchase” Virtual Items in our Services, you do not legally “own” the Virtual Items and the amounts of any Virtual Items do not refer to any credit balance of real currency or its equivalent. Any “virtual currency” balance shown in your Account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value, but instead constitutes a measurement of the extent of your limited license.
ALL SALES ARE FINAL: SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED VIRTUAL ITEMS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED, EITHER VOLUNTARILY OR INVOLUNTARILY, OR NO MATTER WHICH PLATFORM YOU MADE YOUR PAYMENT THROUGH.
PURCHASES TO ACQUIRE A LIMITED LICENSE AND RIGHT TO USE VIRTUAL ITEMS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW.
Additional Payment Terms:
You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using an Account registered to you. Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited may revise the pricing for the goods and services it licenses to you through the Services at any time.
Billing Support:
For all billing support, please contact us through Customer Support/ Help Center
8. PROMOTIONS AND OFFERS
From time to time, we may offer limited-time promotions. Please review the official rules or Feature Terms (if any) associated with any promotion. They will apply in addition to these Terms.
Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited is not required to give, and you are not required to accept any Offer. Offers are not transferable, redeemable, or exchangeable for other things of value, except at our sole discretion. If you accept an Offer, you may have to sign a declaration of eligibility and liability release or other paperwork to receive the Offer. Some Offers will be subject to taxes and other charges, travel, or activities outside of the virtual world, all of which will be disclosed before you accept the offer. If you accept any Offer, you assume all liability associated with the Offer.
9. THIRD-PARTY ADVERTISING
Our Services may feature advertisements from us or other companies. Our Privacy Policy spill.games/privacyexplains what information we share with advertisers. Sometimes we provide links in our games or on the Services to other third-party companies’ websites or to companies who invite you to participate in a promotional offer and offer you some features of the Services or upgrade (such as in-game currency) in exchange. Any charge or obligation you take on in dealing with these other companies is your responsibility.
We are not responsible for any third-party website that we link to in our Services, and such a link does not mean we endorse or approve that linked site or any information you obtain from it. We are not liable for any claim relating to any content, goods, and/or services of third parties.
Please also note that the linked third-party sites are not under our control and may collect data or ask you to provide them with personal or other information, or they may automatically collect information from you. When you use these third-party sites and services, the third-party company may (or may not) ask you for permission to access your information and content. We are not responsible for these other companies’ content, business practices, or privacy policies, or for how they collect, use, or share the information they get from you.
10. COPYRIGHT NOTICES/COMPLAINTS
We respect the intellectual property rights of others and ask that you do, as well. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), the E-Commerce Directive and associated legislation in the EU, and similar or equivalent other local laws that may apply. We reserve the right to terminate any player’s access to the Services if we determine that the player is a “repeat infringer.” We do not have to notify the player before we do this.
11. FEEDBACK AND SUGGESTIONS
We may request your feedback and suggestions on certain features through an in-app feature or a survey on email or social media. You are not obliged to respond to our request. Any feedback you provide at our request is subject to the rules of the specific program. And any idea, information, or feedback you submit to us voluntarily shall be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary.
12. AVAILABILITY OF OUR SERVICES
Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited makes no promise to make our Services and content always available, uninterrupted, or error-free. We may suspend, withdraw, or restrict the availability of all or any part of our Services for business and operational reasons.
SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTIES OF TITLE OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, OR OTHER TERMS OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
If your state or country does not allow these disclaimers, they do not apply to you. If your state or country requires a certain period for which a warranty applies, it will be either the shorter of 30 days from your first use of the Services or the shortest period required by law.
13. LIMITATIONS; WAIVER OF LIABILITY
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED IS NOT LIABLE
(1) FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR DATA, IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICES; OR
(2) FOR THE CONDUCT OF THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES AND OPERATORS OF EXTERNAL SITES.
THE RISK OF USING THE SERVICES AND EXTERNAL SITES RESTS ENTIRELY WITH YOU AS DOES THE RISK OF INJURY FROM THE SERVICES AND EXTERNAL SITES.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY ANY LAW THAT APPLIES, THE DISCLAIMERS OF LIABILITY IN THESE TERMS APPLY TO ALL DAMAGES OR INJURY CAUSED BY THE SERVICES, OR RELATED TO USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICES, UNDER ANY CAUSE OF ACTION IN ANY JURISDICTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ACTIONS FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE).
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS, THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED IS LIMITED TO THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED IN THE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DAYS (180) DAYS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE ON WHICH YOU FIRST ASSERT ANY SUCH CLAIM.
IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED ANY AMOUNT IN THE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY DAYS (180) DAYS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE ON WHICH YOU FIRST ASSERT ANY SUCH CLAIM, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH SPILLVOY GAMING PRIVATE LIMITED IS TO STOP USING THE SERVICES AND TO CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT.
Some states or countries do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitations/exclusions of liability described above, which means these limitations/exclusions may not apply to you if you reside in one of those states or countries.
These limitations/exclusions do not apply to users located in the EEA. For those users, if Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited fails to comply with these Terms, Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited is responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited’s breach of these Terms or is a result of Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited’s negligence, but Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited is not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if it was an obvious consequence of our breach or if it was contemplated by you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited at the time we entered into these Terms.
14. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
Before bringing a formal legal case, you must first contact our Customer Support team through support@spill.games. In the event that you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited can’t resolve the dispute through Customer Support, you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited both agree to arbitrate as described below.
By voluntarily accepting these Terms (and in many of our Services by voluntarily clicking or tapping an in-game button to affirmatively indicate your agreement to these Terms), you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited agree to the fullest extent permitted by law to resolve any claims arising out of, relating to, or in connection with the Terms, Feature Terms including but not limited to your use of the Services and information you provide via the Services, through final and binding arbitration. This applies to all claims under any legal theory unless the claim fits within the Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate identified below. This agreement to arbitrate also applies even after you stop using your account or delete it. (In this Section 14 and in Section 16, you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited may be referred to individually as “a party” or collectively as “the parties.”)
An arbitration proceeding is before a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge and jury, so by voluntarily accepting these Terms, you, and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited agree to give up the right to a trial before a judge and jury. Arbitrations have different rules from lawsuits in court. They are less formal than lawsuits in courts and provide limited opportunities to force the other side to share information relevant to the dispute—a process called discovery. The arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. But, if any party does not like the arbitrator’s decision, the courts only have a limited ability to change the outcome of arbitration or make the arbitrator reconsider his or her decision.
If any party disagrees about whether this Section 14 (or any portion of this Section 14 including without limitation the provisions relating to arbitration, class action waiver, and opting out) can be enforced or whether it applies to the dispute, the parties all agree that the arbitrator will decide that, too.
In addition, if you or Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited brings a claim in court that should be arbitrated, or any party refuses to arbitrate a claim that should be arbitrated, any other party can ask a court to force the parties to go to arbitration to resolve the claim (i.e., compel arbitration). You or Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited may also ask a court to halt a court proceeding (i.e., stay the court proceedings) while an arbitration proceeding is ongoing.
The Arbitration Process
The Singapore International Arbitration Centre(“SIAC”) will control any arbitration between you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited and SIAC’s then-current rules and procedures, including the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, will be used. You can look at SIAC’s rules and procedures on their website at https://www.siac.org.sg/. If something in these Terms is different from SIAC’s rules and procedures, then the parties agree to follow these Terms instead.
To start an arbitration proceeding, use the form on SIAC’s website (www.siac.org.sg).
If you reside outside of the Singapore, arbitration may take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing. If you reside in the Singapore, the arbitration shall be initiated in Singapore. You and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited further agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Singapore in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If your claim is for ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely based on documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the SIAC Rules. If your claim exceeds ten thousand dollars ($10,000), the right to a hearing will be determined by the SIAC Rules.
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator costs and expenses imposed by SIAC will be governed by the SIAC rules, provided that if you are initiating an arbitration against Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited and the value of the relief sought is ten thousand dollars ($10,000) or less, then Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited will advance all filing, administrative, and arbitration costs and expenses imposed by SIAC (subject to reimbursement as set forth below). If the circumstances in the preceding sentence apply, but the value of the relief sought is more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000) and you demonstrate to the arbitrator that such costs and expenses would be prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding, then Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited will pay the amount of any such costs and expenses that the arbitrator determines are necessary to prevent the arbitration from being prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding (subject to reimbursement as set forth below). If the arbitrator determines that all of the claims you assert in arbitration are frivolous according to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, you agree to reimburse Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited for all such costs and expenses that Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited paid and that you would have been obligated to pay under the SIAC rules.
Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate
The parties all agree that they will go to court to resolve disputes
Relating to Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited’s intellectual property
Where the sole form of relief sought is injunctive relief; or
Within the jurisdiction of small claims courts.
No Class Actions
By voluntarily accepting these Terms (and in many of our Services by voluntarily clicking or tapping an in-game button to affirmatively indicate your agreement to these Terms), you and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited all agree that the parties can only bring a claim against each other on an individual basis.
That means:
The parties agree that neither you nor Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited can bring a claim as a plaintiff or class member in a class action, consolidated action, or representative action.
The parties agree that the arbitrator cannot combine more than one person’s claim into a single case, and cannot preside over any consolidated, class, or representative arbitration proceeding (unless the parties all agree to change this).
The parties agree that the arbitrator’s decision or award in one person’s case can only impact the person who brought the claim, not other Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited players, and cannot be used to decide other disputes with other players.
If this subsection on “No Class Actions” is found to not be enforceable or valid, then the entire Section 14 (Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver) will be null and void (i.e., go away). But the rest of the Terms and Feature Terms will still apply.
Opting out of the Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver
You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions in Section 14 by sending us written notice of your decision to opt-out through contact@spill.games. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Services or availability of this opt-out, whichever is later; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes as set out in this Section 14 . If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited too will not be bound by them.
Changes to Section 14 Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver
We will give you 60-days’ notice by email or through the Services if we change this Section 14 on our Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver. If this subsection on “Changes to Section 14 on Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver” is found to not be enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from Section 14 , and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver section in existence after you began using the Services.
Survival
This Section 14 shall survive termination of these Terms.
15. APPLICABLE LAW
If you are located in the United States, you agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act (including its procedural provisions) governs the interpretation and enforcement of Section 14 (Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action Waiver). Also, these Terms and our relationship will be governed by California law, except for its conflicts of laws principles.
If you are located anywhere other than the United States, these Terms and our relationship will be governed by SIAC Rules, except for its conflicts of laws principles.
16. VENUE FOR LEGAL DISPUTES NOT SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION
If you are located in the United States, judicial proceedings (other than small claims actions) that are excluded from the Arbitration Agreement in Section 14 must be brought in state or federal court in San Francisco, California, unless the parties agree to some other location. You and Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in San Francisco, California.
If you are located anywhere other than the United States, judicial proceedings must be brought in the courts of Bangalore , India unless the parties all agree to some other location.
17. SEPARATION OF TERMS
Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. Except as described in Section 14 under the “No Class Actions” heading, if any part of these Terms and Feature Terms is not enforceable, the rest of these Terms and Feature Terms still apply and are binding, and any unenforceable term will be substituted with a term that comes as economically close to the unlawful or unenforceable term as possible.
18. ASSIGNMENT
We may give our rights, or our obligations, under these Terms or Feature Terms to any person or entity at any time with or without your consent. You may not give your rights or your obligations under these Terms or Feature Terms to anyone without first getting Spillvoy Gaming Private Limited’s written consent, and any attempt to do so without our consent is void.
19. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Terms, and any other policies or rules we reference in these Terms, make up the entire agreement between you and us relating to the subject matter of these Terms and supersede all prior understandings of the parties relating to the subject matter of these Terms, whether those prior understandings were electronic, oral or written, or whether established by custom, practice, policy or precedent, between you and us. This provision does not apply to users located in the EEA.
20. LANGUAGE OF THE TERMS
If we provide a translated version of these Terms, Feature Terms, Privacy Policy, or any other terms or policy, it is for informational purposes only. If the translated version means something different from the English version, then the English meaning will be the one that applies. This provision does not apply to users located in the EEA.
21. NO WAIVER
If we do not enforce our rights under these Terms or Feature Terms that does not waive our right to do so later. And, if we do expressly waive a provision of these Terms or Feature Terms that does not mean it is waived for all time in the future. If we do waive a default or breach by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default or breach by you.
