Terms of Service

1. Agreement

These terms govern your use of Stacker ("the game"), an iOS application published by GAICOMTEL SRL ("we", "us"). By downloading or playing the game you accept them. If you do not accept them, do not use the game.

2. Your licence

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and play the game on Apple-branded devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, in line with the App Store Terms of Service and the usage rules set out there.

The game is licensed, not sold. Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies to your copy; these terms supplement it, and where the two conflict on a point Apple's EULA covers, Apple's EULA prevails.

3. What you may not do

• Reverse engineer, decompile, or modify the game, except to the extent that applicable law expressly permits it despite this restriction.
• Distribute, resell, rent, or sublicense the game or copies of it.
• Manipulate leaderboards — through modified builds, memory editing, automated play, or any other means of posting a score that was not played.
• Use the game to harass others, or set a Game Center alias that is unlawful, hateful, or obscene, where that alias will appear on a leaderboard.
• Interfere with the game's operation or with Apple's services that it uses.

4. Leaderboards and replays

If you use Game Center, your scores and public Game Center alias appear on leaderboards visible to other players. If a run of yours earns a leaderboard place, the game may upload a replay of that run — the sequence of moves that produced the score — so other players can watch it. By submitting a score you agree that we may store and display that score and its replay alongside your public alias for as long as the leaderboard exists.

We may remove any score, replay, or alias we reasonably believe was cheated, falsified, or is offensive, and may exclude a player from leaderboards for repeated abuse. Leaderboards run in seasons and may be reset when a season ends. See the Privacy Policy for what these features store.

5. Availability and changes to the game

The game's online features depend on Apple services — Game Center and iCloud — that we do not control. Those features may be unavailable, delayed, or discontinued. We may change, update, or stop supporting any part of the game, including leaderboards, replays, and previously released content. Scores, replays, progress, and unlocked content are not guaranteed to persist and carry no monetary value.

6. Purchases

The game offers one in-app purchase, The Back Room, which unlocks two additional machines. It is a one-off purchase, not a subscription, and nothing renews. There are no consumable purchases: the tickets you earn by playing cannot be bought, and no advantage in the game is for sale.

The purchase is sold and processed by Apple under the App Store Terms of Service and Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement. It buys a licence to use the unlocked content under section 2, not ownership of it. Where the purchase is eligible for Family Sharing, Apple makes it available to your family group on Apple's terms.

Refunds are handled by Apple, not by us. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. If Apple refunds or otherwise revokes a purchase, the content it unlocked is locked again. If you are a consumer in the EU/EEA, the UK, or another region with a statutory right to withdraw from a digital purchase, that right applies as your local law provides and nothing here limits it.

You can restore a purchase on a new or reset device at any time, free, from the game's Settings screen; the record lives with Apple. As section 5 says, we may change or stop supporting parts of the game — but we will not remove content you have paid for from a version you have already bought while that version is supported.

7. Intellectual property

The game, including its code, artwork, sound, and name, is owned by us and protected by copyright and other laws. Nothing in these terms transfers ownership of it to you. You are welcome to record and publish footage of your own play, including monetised video, provided you do not present the game as your own work.

8. No warranty

The game is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the game will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of data loss. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you, and nothing here limits rights you have as a consumer under mandatory local law.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for lost data, lost progress, or lost scores, arising out of your use of the game. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for the game, or, if that is nothing, to a nominal sum. Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded.

10. Apple

These terms are between you and us, not with Apple. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the game and is not responsible for addressing any claim about it, including product-liability, legal-compliance, and intellectual-property claims, which are our responsibility. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.

11. Termination

This licence ends if you breach these terms; you may end it at any time by deleting the game. Sections 7 through 10 survive termination.

12. Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms. The current version is always posted at this address with its effective date. Continuing to play after a revision means you accept it.

13. Governing law

These terms, and any dispute arising out of them or out of your use of the game, are governed by the laws of the Republic of Moldova, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. This does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory consumer-protection law in the country where you live: if you are a consumer resident elsewhere, you keep every right that law gives you and may bring proceedings in your local courts.
