Summary
Trip Sort is a free puzzle game made by an independent developer. You can play it for personal fun; you may not copy it, cheat it or resell it. Coins and boosters are virtual items with no real-world value, and purchases are handled by Apple or Google. The game is provided as it is, and our responsibility is limited to what the law requires. Your privacy is covered by our Privacy Policy.
1. Who we are and what these terms cover
Trip Sort ("the game") is published by Nicolas Gula, an independent developer based in Uruguay ("we", "us"). These Terms of Use are an agreement between you and us about the game for iOS and Android and this website at dezeo.lat/tripsort. By downloading, installing or playing the game you accept these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the game.
Apple's and Google's own terms also apply to anything they provide: the download, the stores, payments and refunds. Where their terms give you more rights than ours, theirs prevail for those matters.
2. Who can play
The game is intended for players aged 13 and over (16 in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom). If you are a minor, you may only play with the permission of a parent or guardian, who accepts these terms on your behalf and is responsible for any purchases made on their account.
3. Your license to play
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and play the game on devices you own or control, for your own entertainment. Everything in the game, including its code, artwork, illustrations, icons, postcards, sounds, texts, the name "Trip Sort" and its logo, belongs to us or to our licensors and is protected by copyright and trademark law. The license does not give you any ownership of the game or its content.
You may not, except where the law expressly allows it:
- copy, modify, translate, decompile, reverse-engineer or create derivative works of the game or its content;
- sell, rent, lend, redistribute or sublicense the game, or publish it under another name;
- use cheats, bots, exploits, modified builds or any tool that alters the game, its prices or its rewards;
- use the game's artwork, name or logo for your own products or promotions without our written permission;
- use the game in any way that is unlawful or that interferes with its operation or with the services it relies on.
Screenshots and short videos of your own gameplay, shared for non-commercial purposes such as social media or reviews, are welcome.
4. Coins, boosters and other virtual items
The game includes virtual coins, boosters, postcards, trophies and similar items ("virtual items"). Virtual items are a limited license to use a feature of the game; they are not money, have no value outside the game and cannot be exchanged for cash, goods or services. They cannot be transferred, sold or shared between players, and they do not accrue interest or any right against us.
Virtual items are stored only on your device. If you delete the game, change device or lose your device, your progress and unpurchased virtual items are lost and we cannot restore them. One-time purchases (such as Remove Ads or the Starter Pack) can be restored from the store with the "Restore Purchases" button, because the store keeps a record of them.
We may adjust the game's economy over time, for example the price in coins of a booster, the rewards of a level or the contents of the daily gift, to keep the game balanced. We will not take away virtual items you have already received without a good reason, such as cheating.
5. Purchases and refunds
All purchases are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play), under their terms and with the payment method of your store account. Prices are shown in the store in your local currency, taxes included where applicable, and may differ between countries. We never see your payment details.
Because Apple and Google process the payment, refund requests must be made to them, through the App Store or Google Play, and are decided under their policies. We cannot issue refunds ourselves, and a refund of a purchase removes the virtual items it provided. Purchases of consumable items such as coin packs are delivered to the game on the device where they were bought.
6. Advertising
The game is free because it shows ads provided by Google AdMob: optional rewarded ads that you choose to watch for a reward, and full-screen ads between some levels. You can remove the ads between levels with the Remove Ads purchase. Ads are provided by third parties; we do not control their content and are not responsible for the products, services or websites they advertise. How ad data is handled is explained in our Privacy Policy, together with your choices about personalized ads.
Rewarded ads grant their reward only when the ad network reports that the ad was watched to the end. If an ad fails to load, for example without an internet connection, the reward is not available at that moment; this is not a fault in the game.
7. Availability and changes
We work on the game continuously and may add, change or remove features, levels, destinations, items and prices in coins at any time, through updates or otherwise. We may also suspend or stop offering the game, or any part of it, with reasonable notice where possible, for example through the stores or this website. If we discontinue the game, we will try to give notice in advance; virtual items are a license to use features of the game and expire with it.
The game needs an internet connection for ads and purchases; everything else works offline. Some features depend on services run by Apple and Google, which may be unavailable from time to time for reasons outside our control.
8. Ending the agreement
You may stop using the game at any time by deleting it, which also deletes everything it stored on your device. We may end your license if you breach these terms, in particular by cheating or by using the game in an unlawful way. Sections 3, 4, 9, 10 and 12 continue to apply after the agreement ends.
9. Disclaimer
The game is provided "as is" and "as available", for entertainment. To the extent permitted by law, we make no warranties, express or implied, about the game, including that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with your device or that any error will be corrected. Nothing in these terms excludes rights that the consumer law of your country gives you and that cannot be excluded by agreement.
10. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, including loss of progress, virtual items or data, arising from your use of the game or the inability to use it. Where our liability cannot be excluded, it is limited, in total, to the greater of the amount you paid for purchases in the game in the twelve months before the claim, or the equivalent of USD 50. This limitation does not apply to liability for our willful misconduct or gross negligence, or to any liability that the law does not allow us to limit.
11. Feedback
If you send us suggestions or ideas about the game, you agree that we may use them freely, without any obligation to you, and you confirm that you have the right to share them. We will not use your name in connection with them without your permission.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of Uruguay. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country where you live, and you may bring a dispute before the courts of that country. We will always try to resolve any issue directly first: write to us at gulabonzinillc@gmail.com.
For players in the European Union, the European Commission provides an online dispute resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are not obliged, and do not undertake, to take part in dispute resolution before a consumer arbitration body.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms when the game or the law changes. The "last updated" date at the top changes with every revision, and material changes will also be mentioned in the game's release notes. Continuing to play after a change means you accept the updated terms; if you do not, you can stop playing and delete the game.
