Terms of Use

Terms of Service and End User Licence Agreement · Last updated: 30 October 2026

1. Agreement

These Terms of Use (the "Terms") are a legal agreement between you and the makers and operators of AI Thrones (the "Operator", "we", "us" or "our"). They govern your access to and use of the game AI Thrones: The Rising on any platform, including test builds distributed through TestFlight (the "Game"); the website at aithrowns.app and any related pages (the "Website"); the in-game feedback service and any other servers, features, updates, content, communications and services we offer (together with the Game and the Website, the "Services").

Our Privacy Policy forms part of these Terms. By downloading, installing, opening, playing, accessing or otherwise using any part of the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not use the Services. Not using the Services is always your choice and your only remedy if you disagree with these Terms.

Some features may have additional rules shown when you use them. Those rules form part of these Terms. If they conflict with these Terms, the additional rules apply to that feature.

2. Who may use the Services

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian, who agrees to these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your use. If you are a parent or guardian and allow a minor to use the Services, you accept these Terms for them and are responsible for their activity, including any purchases.

You may not use the Services if you are barred from doing so under any applicable law, or if we have previously suspended or banned you. You are responsible for making sure that your use of the Services is lawful where you are.

3. Your licence to use the Game

Subject to your continued compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to download, install and use the Game, for your own private, non-commercial entertainment, on a device that you own or control, as allowed by the rules of the store or platform from which you obtained it. This licence also applies to any updates, patches and content we choose to provide.

The Game is licensed to you, not sold. This licence does not give you any ownership of or other rights in the Services. We may revoke this licence at any time, for any reason or no reason, including if you break these Terms.

4. Ownership

The Services and everything in them, including the code, software, game design, mechanics, rules, maps, stages, characters, clans, names, story, comics, dialogue, artwork, animations, images, music, sounds, text, user interface, trademarks, logos and all copies and derivative works (the "Content"), are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws around the world. All rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms are reserved by us and our licensors.

AI Thrones is a work of fiction and parody. Characters, clans and events in the Game are fictional. Any resemblance to real companies, products, people or events is used for satire and commentary and does not suggest any affiliation with or endorsement by them.

5. Rules of conduct

You agree that you will not, and will not help or allow anyone else to:

• copy, reproduce, sell, rent, lease, lend, distribute, broadcast, publicly display or otherwise make available the Game or any Content, except as the platform you got it from expressly allows;
• exploit the Services or any Content for any commercial purpose;
• reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decrypt, modify, translate or create derivative works of the Services, or try to extract their source code, assets or data, except to the extent the law expressly permits this despite this restriction;
• use cheats, exploits, bots, scripts, automation, hacks, mods, or any unauthorised software that modifies, interferes with or gains an advantage in the Services;
• access or try to access servers, accounts, data or systems you are not authorised to access, or get around any security, rate limit or technical protection;
• overload, disrupt, flood, spam or attack the Services or the infrastructure behind them, including through denial-of-service attacks or by sending excessive requests;
• scrape, crawl, harvest or collect data from the Services by automated means;
• send, upload or post any content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, hateful, discriminatory, invasive of anyone's privacy, or that infringes anyone's intellectual property or other rights;
• send personal information about another person without their permission, or impersonate any person or entity;
• upload viruses, malware or any other harmful code;
• use the Services in any way that breaks any law or regulation, or that could expose us, other players or anyone else to harm or liability.

We may investigate and take any action we think appropriate against any breach, including removing content, blocking access, suspending or ending your use of the Services, and reporting you to the authorities.

6. Payments, virtual items and donations

The Game is free to play today. In the future we may offer optional purchases with real money, such as virtual currency, items, characters, stages, cosmetic content, upgrades, subscriptions or ad removal (together "Virtual Items"), and ways to support the Game through donations or tips. If and when we do, the following applies.

Payment processing

Purchases and donations are processed by Apple, Google or another third-party payment provider under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not receive or store your full card or bank details. You are responsible for all charges made through your device or account, including those made by children or others using it. Prices may include taxes depending on where you live, and may change at any time.

Virtual Items

• Virtual Items are licensed to you, not sold. You get a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to use them within the Game only. You do not own them.
• Virtual Items have no monetary value, are not money or property, cannot be redeemed, exchanged or cashed out for real money or anything of value, and cannot be transferred, sold or traded, except where we expressly allow it in the Game.
• We may manage, regulate, control, change, rebalance, limit or remove any Virtual Items, their prices and their availability at any time, with or without notice, and we will have no liability to you for doing so.
• Virtual Items may be lost if you delete the Game, change devices, reset your data, if an update changes how data is stored, if the Game or a feature ends, or if we end your access under these Terms. We are not responsible for that loss.
• Delivery of Virtual Items begins immediately after purchase. Where the law allows, you agree that you lose any right of withdrawal once delivery has started.

Donations

Donations, tips and other voluntary contributions are gifts to support the development of the Game. They do not buy any goods, services, features, content, ownership, equity, influence, priority or promise of future development, support or availability. A donation does not create any obligation for us to continue the Game. Donations are not charitable donations and are not tax-deductible unless we expressly say otherwise.

No refunds

Except where applicable law requires otherwise, all purchases and donations are final and non-refundable, including if the Game is changed, suspended or shut down, if a feature or Virtual Item is removed, if your access is ended, or if you stop using the Services. Any refund requests for purchases made through an app store must be made to that store and are handled under its rules.

7. Changes, interruptions and ending the Game

The Game is under active development and may contain bugs, errors and unfinished features. We may, at any time, at our sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, and with or without notice:

• change, update, add, remove or rebalance any part of the Services, including features, stages, rules, difficulty, numbers, characters, Content and Virtual Items;
• require you to install an update before you can keep playing;
• limit, suspend or interrupt any part of the Services, including for maintenance, outages or problems beyond our control;
• stop providing support, updates, bug fixes, servers or the feedback service;
• permanently discontinue the Game, the Website or any other part of the Services, or remove the Game from any store.

We have no obligation to keep the Services available, to keep them working on any device or operating system, to fix any problem, to provide any support, or to give you any refund or compensation for any change, interruption or discontinuation.

8. Your progress and data

Your progress, settings and any Virtual Items are stored on your device unless we tell you otherwise. They may be lost or reset for many reasons, including deleting the Game, changing or resetting your device, updates, bugs or the end of the Game. We do not guarantee that any progress or data will be kept, restored or transferred, and we are not liable for any loss of it. How we collect and use data is described in the Privacy Policy.

9. Feedback and user content

The Services let you send us messages, ideas, suggestions, bug reports, screenshots and other material ("User Content"). You are solely responsible for your User Content. By sending it, you confirm that you own it or have all the rights needed to send it and to give us the licence below, and that it does not break these Terms or any law.

You grant us and anyone we authorise a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid, transferable and sublicensable licence to use, store, copy, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, analyse, publish, publicly display, distribute and create derivative works from your User Content, in any form and media now known or later developed, for any purpose, including improving the Game, marketing, and training, testing and improving artificial intelligence and machine learning models, without any notice, credit, approval or payment to you. To the extent allowed by law, you waive any moral rights in your User Content.

We are not required to read, answer, keep, use or act on any User Content. We may remove or refuse any User Content at any time. Ideas you send may be similar to ideas we already have or develop independently, and you will not be entitled to any compensation if we use something similar. Do not send anything you consider confidential.

10. AI-generated content

Parts of the Game, its art, text and other Content, and some replies to your feedback, may be created or assisted by artificial intelligence. AI output can be wrong, strange or unexpected. Nothing in the Services is advice of any kind, and you should not rely on it for any purpose outside the Game.

11. Third parties

The Services rely on third parties such as app stores, hosting, network and sign-in providers, and may include links to third-party websites or services. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, availability, policies or practices, or for any loss caused by them. Your use of them is at your own risk and under their own terms.

12. No warranties

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Services, the Content, Virtual Items and everything else we provide are provided "as is", "as available" and "with all faults", without any warranty, guarantee, representation or condition of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise. We expressly disclaim all warranties, including any implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title, quiet enjoyment, accuracy, and non-infringement, and any warranties arising from a course of dealing or usage of trade.

Without limiting the above, we do not warrant that the Services will meet your requirements or expectations; be available, uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free; work with your device or software; be free of viruses or other harmful components; that defects will be corrected; that any data, progress or Virtual Items will be kept or not lost; or that the Services will continue to be offered for any length of time. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained from us or through the Services creates any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.

13. Assumption of risk

You use the Services entirely at your own risk and discretion. You are solely responsible for your device, your data, your internet connection and any costs it causes, and for any damage or loss that results from downloading or using the Services. Take regular breaks. Some people may experience discomfort, eye strain or seizures from flashing lights or patterns in video games; if you or anyone in your family has a history of epilepsy or seizures, consult a doctor before playing, and stop playing immediately if you feel unwell. Do not play while driving, walking or doing anything that requires your attention.

14. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will we, our affiliates, or our and their owners, directors, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, service providers or partners (the "Protected Parties") be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, business, goodwill, data, progress, Virtual Items, use, or device, or for any cost of substitute goods or services, or for any personal injury or emotional distress, arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Services, however caused and under any theory of liability, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the total aggregate liability of the Protected Parties for all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will not exceed the total amount you actually paid to us for the Services in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim. If you have paid us nothing, our total liability is zero. These limits apply even if any remedy fails of its essential purpose, and they are an essential basis of the bargain between you and us: we would not provide the Services, especially for free, without them.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for certain damages, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud. In those jurisdictions, the exclusions and limits above apply to you only to the fullest extent permitted by law, and nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability or any consumer right that cannot be excluded or limited by law.

15. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release the Protected Parties from all claims, demands, damages and losses of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with the Services, including any dispute with another player or third party. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party." You waive any similar law in any other jurisdiction.

16. Indemnity

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Protected Parties from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, fines, costs and expenses, including reasonable lawyers' fees, arising out of or relating to: your use or misuse of the Services; your User Content; your breach of these Terms; your breach of any law or of any third party's rights; or the use of the Services by anyone using your device. We may take over the defence of any such matter at your cost, and you will cooperate with us.

17. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Services at any time by deleting the Game and not using the Website. We may suspend, limit or end your access to all or part of the Services at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice, including if we believe you have broken these Terms. When your access ends, your licence ends, you must stop using the Services, and you will lose any progress and Virtual Items without refund or compensation, except where the law requires otherwise. Sections 4, 6 (no refunds), 8, 9, 10 and 12 to 21, and any other terms that by their nature should continue, survive the end of these Terms.

18. Disputes

Talk to us first. Before starting any claim, you agree to contact us through FEEDBACK and try in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 60 days.

Individual claims only. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any claim must be brought only in your individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding. You waive any right to a jury trial.

Time limit. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services must be brought within one (1) year after it arose, or it is permanently barred.

Governing law and courts. These Terms and any dispute arising from them or the Services are governed by the laws of the place where the Operator is established, without regard to its conflict of law rules, and the courts of that place have exclusive jurisdiction, except that we may seek injunctive or other relief in any court. If you are a consumer, you keep any mandatory protections and any right to bring a claim in your local courts that the law of your country of residence gives you.

19. Apple and app stores

If you got the Game from Apple's App Store or TestFlight: these Terms are between you and us only, not Apple, and we, not Apple, are responsible for the Game to the extent set out in these Terms. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no warranty obligation for the Game; if the Game fails to conform to any warranty that cannot be excluded, you may notify Apple, which may refund the purchase price, if any. Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the Game, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, consumer protection, privacy, or intellectual property claims. You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting", and are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. Your use of the Game must also follow the app store's own terms. The same principles apply to any other store or platform we use.

20. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms at any time. We will post the updated Terms on this page and change the "Last updated" date. Changes take effect when posted, unless we say otherwise. Your continued use of the Services after a change means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services. We may also notify you of material changes in the Game, but we are not required to.

21. General

• Entire agreement. These Terms, the Privacy Policy and any additional rules referred to here are the entire agreement between you and us about the Services and replace any earlier agreements.
• Severability. If any part of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent possible or limited as needed, and the rest of the Terms stay in full force.
• No waiver. If we do not enforce a right or provision, that is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any of your rights. We may assign or transfer them, in whole or in part, without restriction, including to a buyer of the Game.
• Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages of hosting, network or third-party services, natural disasters, war, strikes or changes in law.
• No relationship. Nothing in these Terms creates any partnership, employment, agency or fiduciary relationship.
• Export. You will comply with all applicable export control and sanctions laws.
• Language. These Terms are written in English. If they are translated, the English version prevails.
• Headings and summaries are for convenience only and do not affect how these Terms are read.
