Terms of service

1. Who we are

Avalon Arena (“the game”) is an online multiplayer arena game developed by Seven Mages and published by Derwort Media (“we”, “us”), based in the Netherlands.

• Address: Derwort Media, c/o Dutch Innovation Factory, Bleiswijkseweg 37, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands
• E-mail: [email protected]

These terms apply to the game as you get it from Google Play or the Apple App Store, and to the version you play in a web browser at arena.avalonrpg.net. By installing or playing the game, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the game.

2. The store you got it from

If you downloaded the game from Google Play or the App Store, that store's own terms also apply to your download, including its rules on payments and refunds. If you got the game from the App Store, the following also applies:

• These terms are between you and us, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for the game and its content.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the game.
• If the game fails to meet a warranty that applies to it, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any. To the extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the game.
• Apple is not responsible for any claims by you or anyone else relating to the game or your use of it. That includes product liability claims, claims that the game fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection or privacy laws.
• If anyone claims that the game or your use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim.
• You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms. Once you accept them, Apple may enforce them against you.

3. What you get

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to play the game for your own non-commercial use, on devices you own or control, under these terms and the store's usage rules.

The game, its characters, art, music, sounds, maps and code belong to us or to our licensors. You may not copy, sell or rent out the game, reverse-engineer it (except where the law allows), or use it to make a competing product.

You may stream the game and publish videos and screenshots of it, including ones you earn money from, as long as you don't present them as official.

4. Price

The game is free to play. It has no in-app purchases and no advertising. If we ever add paid content, it will be sold through Google Play or the App Store. You will see the price before you buy, and that store's payment and refund terms will apply.

5. Online play

Online matches run on our servers. You don't need an account. The name and character you choose are shown to the other players in your arena, and so are your kills and your place on the scoreboard.

The game is still in active development. We may change maps, weapons, rules and features. We may also take the servers down for maintenance or updates. We will do our best to keep the game available, but we can't guarantee that it will always be online, free of errors, or that a match won't be interrupted. Practice mode works without our servers.

To play online, you may need an up-to-date version of the game. An older version may no longer be able to join an arena.

6. Fair play

Play fair and treat other players with respect. In particular, you must not:

• choose a player name that is offensive, hateful, sexual, threatening, or that impersonates someone else, including us;
• cheat, use bots, or modify or automate the game to gain an advantage;
• exploit bugs on purpose, and fail to tell us about them;
• attack, overload or disrupt our servers, or try to access parts of them you aren't meant to;
• harass other players or deliberately spoil their game.

If you break these rules, we may remove you from a match, block you from playing online, or change your player name. Where possible, we will take into account how serious the breach was.

To report a player, an offensive name or a bug, e-mail [email protected].

7. Age

The game contains cartoon-style violence. If you are under 16, ask a parent or guardian to read these terms with you and to agree to them before you play online.

8. Privacy

To run online matches, our servers handle the name and character you choose, your gameplay input, and your IP address, which is needed to connect. Your settings and personal statistics stay on your device. We may also count matches, rounds and connection quality without your name or IP address, to improve the game. We do not sell your data, and the game has no advertising.

For more, see our privacy page, or e-mail us.

9. Liability

The game is provided free of charge and “as is”. As far as the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect or consequential damage, or for loss of data or progress, arising from your use of the game or from it being unavailable.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for intent or gross negligence. Nothing in them affects your statutory rights as a consumer, either.

10. Ending

You can stop using the game at any time by uninstalling it. We may stop offering the game or its online servers. If we do, we will announce it on this website in advance whenever we can.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms, for example when the game gets new features. We will post the new version on this page and change the date at the top. If a change matters to you, we will mention it in the game or on this website. If you keep playing after a change, you accept the updated terms.

12. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by Dutch law. If you live in the European Union, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer law of the country you live in.

If you have a complaint, e-mail us first so we can try to solve it together. Any dispute goes to the competent court in the Netherlands, unless the law gives you the right to go to a court where you live.
