Terms of Service

Last updated: [to be announced]

Some details marked as [PLACEHOLDER] below are pending — an official update will replace them soon.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS: THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CONTAIN A BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND JURY TRIALS FOR UNITED STATES RESIDENTS (SEE SECTION 14). IT AFFECTS HOW DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US ARE RESOLVED. YOU HAVE A TIME-LIMITED RIGHT TO OPT OUT.

1. About These Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern the relationship between you and [PLACEHOLDER-1: STUDIO LEGAL ENTITY], operating under the trading name "Hobbee Fusion" ("Hobbee Fusion", "we", "us", or "our"), regarding your access to and use of our mobile games, our website, and all related services (together, the "Services"). The Services include all content, software, graphics, audio, and other materials made available through our games and website, regardless of the platform or device you use to access them.

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Services — or by clicking "I Agree" wherever these Terms are presented — you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Services.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use your personal data and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version and change the "Last updated" date above. Where required by law, or in the case of material changes, we will provide additional notice (for example, an in-game notification). Your continued use of the Services after updated Terms take effect constitutes your acceptance of them.

These Terms are written in English. If we provide translations for your convenience, the English version shall prevail and be legally binding in the event of any discrepancy.

2. Eligibility and Age

Our games are designed to be suitable for players of all ages. If you are a minor under the laws of your country of residence, these Terms must be reviewed and accepted on your behalf by your parent or legal guardian, who will be responsible for your use of the Services. We recommend that parents and guardians supervise their children's play and make use of the parental control tools available on their devices and app store accounts, including purchase restrictions.

Certain features of the Services (for example, chat) may be subject to additional age restrictions based on content, functionality, or applicable law. You must not attempt to access age-restricted features unless you meet the required minimum age.

3. Account, User ID, and Third-Party Login

When you play our games, we automatically create a unique player identifier ("User ID") for you. You can find your User ID in the game's Settings. Please include it when you contact support — it helps us find your game data quickly.

Some features of the Services may allow or require you to link a third-party account (such as Google, Apple, or Facebook) for sign-in and cloud save. If you link a third-party account, you agree to:

  • keep your login credentials secure and confidential
  • not share, sell, rent, transfer, or otherwise make your account available to any third party
  • not create or use an account with false information or on behalf of another person.

You are responsible for all activity that occurs through your account, including unauthorized purchases resulting from your failure to keep your credentials secure. Your account, including all game progress, achievements, and Virtual Items associated with it, is part of the Services and remains the property of Hobbee Fusion; you are granted a personal, non-transferable, revocable license to use it for personal, non-commercial purposes only.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your account as described in Section 10.

4. Virtual Items, Purchases, and Subscriptions

4.1 Virtual Items. The Services may allow you to purchase for real money, earn, or otherwise obtain virtual currency, items, boosters, lives, or other digital content ("Virtual Items"). Virtual Items are digital content that exist solely within our games. They have no monetary or real-world value, are not your personal property, and cannot be exchanged for real money, goods, or services outside the Services. All Virtual Items are licensed, not sold: you receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use them within the Services for personal, non-commercial purposes only. We may add, modify, restrict, or remove Virtual Items at any time, including their functionality, availability, or price.

4.2 Purchases via Platforms. Purchases are processed by third-party platforms such as the Apple App Store and Google Play ("Platforms") and are subject to the Platform's own terms, including payment processing and refund policies. When you make a purchase, you authorize the Platform to charge your selected payment method, including applicable taxes. Delivery of Virtual Items is typically immediate. By purchasing, you request immediate performance and acknowledge that you lose any statutory right of withdrawal once the digital content is delivered, to the extent permitted by applicable law (including Article 16(m) of the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU).

4.3 Refunds. ALL PURCHASES OF VIRTUAL ITEMS ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE, EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR THE PLATFORM'S OWN REFUND POLICIES. Hobbee Fusion does not issue refunds directly for purchases made through Platforms. If you believe you are entitled to a refund, please contact the Platform through which you made the purchase (Apple: Apple Media Services Terms; Google: Google Play Terms of Service).

4.4 Subscriptions. Some parts of the Services may be offered on a subscription basis with automatic, recurring billing ("Subscription"). Subscriptions are purchased and managed through the Platforms. Your Subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period, and the Platform will charge your payment method the then-current fee, unless you cancel through the Platform's subscription settings before the current billing period ends. If you cancel, you keep your Subscription benefits until the end of the current billing period; fees already paid are not refunded except as required by law or the Platform's policies. We may change Subscription benefits or pricing prospectively; material changes will be notified in advance, and your continued Subscription after such notice constitutes acceptance.

4.5 Loss of Virtual Items. Unused Virtual Items and Subscription benefits are forfeited without compensation when your account is deleted or terminated, whether voluntarily or in accordance with these Terms. We are not responsible for loss of Virtual Items resulting from unauthorized access to your account caused by your failure to safeguard your credentials.

5. Advertising

The Services may display third-party advertisements (such as rewarded videos, interstitials, and banners). While we select our advertising partners carefully, we are not responsible for the content of third-party advertisements or the products and services they promote. Your interactions with third-party advertisements are at your own risk and subject to the third party's own terms and privacy policy. Our use of data in connection with advertising is described in our Privacy Policy.

6. User Conduct

You agree to use the Services only for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes. Under no circumstances may you:

a) transmit or post any content that is unlawful, offensive, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, hateful, sexually explicit, or discriminatory — including attempts to bypass content filters through misspellings or symbols

b) harass, bully, threaten, defraud, or impersonate other players, or disclose another person's personal data without their consent

c) cheat, exploit bugs, or use hacks, bots, scripts, automation tools, mods, or any unauthorized third-party software to access, alter, or interfere with the Services or gain unfair advantage

d) sell, rent, trade, or transfer any part of the Services — including Virtual Items, accounts, or account access — for money or anything of value

e) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the Services, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law

f) interfere with or disrupt the Services, other players' use of the Services, or the servers and networks connected to the Services, including transmitting viruses or malicious code

g) use the Services to develop, train, or provide source material for any artificial intelligence or machine learning tools without our express written permission

h) use offensive, inappropriate, misleading, or infringing names for your profile or for in-game groups, teams, or similar entities

i) misuse our customer support channels, including submitting false reports or abusing complaint or appeal systems

j) encourage, enable, or assist any other person to do any of the above.

Violations may result in the actions described in Section 10, including suspension or termination of your account.

7. User Content, Chat, and Moderation

7.1 User Content. The Services may allow you to create and share content, including chat messages, usernames, team or group names, and profile information ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content. By submitting User Content through the Services, you grant Hobbee Fusion a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license, for the duration of your use of the Services, to host, store, reproduce, display, and distribute that content solely for the operation, promotion, and improvement of the Services. This license ends when you delete your User Content or your account, except where retention is necessary for legal, security, or contractual purposes.

You represent that you have all necessary rights to submit your User Content and that it does not infringe any third party's rights or violate these Terms or applicable law.

7.2 Chat. If the Services include chat features, you agree to use them only for lawful, respectful, non-commercial communication. Messages you send may be visible to other players — do not share personal information in chat.

7.3 Moderation. We may monitor and moderate User Content and chat, using automated tools (such as word filters) and/or human review, to detect and address violations of these Terms or applicable law. We may remove, modify, block, or restrict access to any User Content, restrict your access to chat or social features, or suspend or terminate your account.

7.4 Reporting and Appeals. If you believe any content or conduct on the Services violates these Terms or applicable law, please report it via the in-game reporting tools or by contacting support@hobbeefusion.com. Where we take moderation action against your content or account, we will, where required by applicable law, notify you of the action and its reasons, and you may appeal the decision by contacting support@hobbeefusion.com. We will review appeals in good faith. Abuse of the reporting or appeal systems is itself a violation of these Terms.

8. Intellectual Property and Limited License

The Services — including all games, software, source code, graphics, artwork, music, sound effects, text, animations, characters, gameplay features, user interfaces, and branding — are owned by or licensed to Hobbee Fusion and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Services solely for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. You do not acquire any ownership rights in the Services or any Content. You may not copy, distribute, modify, publicly perform, create derivative works from, commercially exploit, or otherwise use any part of the Services except as expressly permitted by these Terms, and you may not remove or alter any proprietary notices.

All trademarks, logos, and trade names appearing in the Services are the property of Hobbee Fusion or their respective owners and may not be used without prior written permission.

9. Copyright Complaints

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement, including notices submitted under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). If you believe that any content available through the Services infringes your copyright, please send a notice to support@hobbeefusion.com including: (1) your name and contact details; (2) a description of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (3) the location or a description of the allegedly infringing material; (4) a statement of your good-faith belief that the use is not authorized; (5) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorized to act on their behalf; and (6) your physical or electronic signature. We may remove or disable access to the material in question and, in appropriate circumstances, take action against repeat infringers.

10. Termination

10.1 By you. You may stop using the Services at any time and may request deletion of your account and personal data as described in our Privacy Policy.

10.2 By us. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Services, your account, and associated Virtual Items if: (a) you breach these Terms or applicable law; (b) you use the Services fraudulently, or in a way that creates legal exposure for us, disrupts the Services, or harms other players; (c) your account has been inactive for an extended period; or (d) we are required to do so by law or by a Platform. Where practicable and permitted, we will notify you in advance of a termination or suspension and its reasons.

10.3 Effect. Upon termination, your license to use the Services ends immediately, and any User Content, account data, progress, and Virtual Items associated with your account may be deleted and are forfeited without compensation. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 8, 11, 12, 13, and 14) will survive.

11. Disclaimers

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HOBBEE FUSION DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH YOUR DEVICE. ANY DOWNLOAD OR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any warranty or right that cannot be excluded or limited under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country of residence.

12. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL HOBBEE FUSION OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

SUBJECT TO MANDATORY LEGAL OBLIGATIONS, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US (IF ANY) IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (USD 100).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for fraud, for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

13. Governing Law and Disputes (Outside the United States)

Except as provided in Section 14 for United States residents, these Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them or your use of the Services shall be governed by the laws of [PLACEHOLDER-4: GOVERNING LAW JURISDICTION — country of the studio legal entity], without regard to conflict-of-laws rules, and shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that country — unless the mandatory law of your country of residence gives you the right to bring claims in your local courts and/or to the protection of your local consumer laws, in which case those rights are unaffected.

14. For United States Residents: Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS.

14.1 Agreement to Arbitrate. If you are a resident of the United States, you and Hobbee Fusion agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy of any kind between you and Hobbee Fusion arising out of or relating to these Terms (or previous versions), the Services, or your use of the Services — including the arbitrability of such claims — shall be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures and, where applicable, its Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines (together, the "JAMS Rules"). If there is a conflict between these Terms and the JAMS Rules, these Terms govern. The arbitration shall be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.). The form and location of the hearing will be determined under the JAMS Rules; fees will be allocated per the applicable JAMS fee schedules. The arbitrator's award will be in writing, final, and binding, subject to limited review under the Federal Arbitration Act, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To learn more, visit www.jamsadr.com.

14.2 Informal Dispute Resolution First. Before initiating arbitration, you and Hobbee Fusion agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for 60 days. The party raising the dispute must send a written Notice of Dispute — to Hobbee Fusion at support@hobbeefusion.com (subject line: "NOTICE OF DISPUTE"), or to you at the contact information associated with your account or User ID. To be valid, your Notice must include your full name, contact information, your in-game username and User ID, a description of the nature of the dispute, and the specific relief sought. The 60-day period begins when a valid Notice is received; applicable statutes of limitations are tolled during this period. Completing this process is a mandatory prerequisite to initiating arbitration.

14.3 Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver. YOU AND HOBBEE FUSION EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to resolve that party's individual claim. Nothing in this section prevents participation in a class-wide settlement.

14.4 Mass Arbitration. If 75 or more arbitration demands of a substantially similar nature are filed against Hobbee Fusion by the same or coordinated counsel within 180 days of one another, the parties agree that JAMS shall administer them in batches of no more than 75 demands per batch, with a single set of filing and administrative fees and one arbitrator per batch, in accordance with the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines. The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to implement this process.

14.5 Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Either party may elect to (a) bring an individual claim in small claims court in your city or county of residence if it falls within that court's jurisdiction; or (b) bring an action in state or federal court asserting claims of patent infringement or invalidity, copyright infringement, piracy, moral rights violations, trademark infringement, or trade secret misappropriation. Any claim or remedy that cannot be arbitrated under applicable law shall be stayed in a court of competent jurisdiction pending completion of arbitration of the remaining claims, to the maximum extent permitted.

14.6 OPT-OUT. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days after you first accept these Terms (or first use the Services, whichever is later) by sending written notice to support@hobbeefusion.com with the subject line "ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT". To be valid, your notice must include your full name, your in-game username, and your User ID. If you do not opt out within that period, this arbitration agreement is binding.

14.7 Severability. If any part of this Section 14 is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy (and only that one) shall be severed and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, and all other claims shall remain subject to arbitration.

15. Photosensitive Seizure Warning

A very small percentage of people may experience seizures when exposed to certain light patterns or flashing lights, including effects that may appear in video games — even people with no prior history of epilepsy or photosensitivity. If you or anyone in your family has an epileptic or photosensitivity condition, please consult a physician before playing. Immediately stop playing and consult a physician if you experience dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, involuntary movement, or convulsions while playing.

16. Miscellaneous

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign or transfer our rights and obligations without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms, together with the documents incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services.
