1. Provider and scope
Tap Away Aura (the “Game”) and its related website and support services (together, the “Services”) are provided by Artem Popov / Tap Vortex Games (“Tap Vortex Games”, “we”, “us”, or “our”).
These Terms form an agreement between you and Tap Vortex Games. The app store or platform through which you obtain the Game may impose additional terms. If platform terms conflict with these Terms, the platform terms control only to the extent required by that platform or applicable law.
2. Eligibility and acceptance
You must be at least 13 years old, and at least the minimum age required in your country, to use the Services without a parent or legal guardian. If you are a minor, your parent or guardian must review and accept these Terms on your behalf and supervise your use of the Services.
You confirm that you are legally permitted to use the Services and are not prohibited from doing so under applicable law.
3. Limited license
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to download, install, and use the Game on a device you own or control solely for lawful, personal, non-commercial entertainment.
No rights are granted except those expressly stated in these Terms. You may not copy, sell, rent, distribute, publicly display, modify, create derivative works from, decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or otherwise exploit the Game except where applicable law expressly permits an activity that cannot be restricted by contract.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- cheat, exploit errors, automate gameplay, or use bots, hacks, mods, emulators intended to manipulate results, or unauthorized third-party software;
- interfere with the operation, security, integrity, or availability of the Services;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems, data, purchases, rewards, or another person's platform account;
- circumvent technical limits, advertising, purchase verification, or security measures;
- transmit malware, abusive requests, fraudulent information, or content that infringes another person's rights;
- use the Services for unlawful, commercial, advertising, resale, or competitive-analysis purposes; or
- encourage or assist another person to do any of the above.
5. Game progress and platform features
Game progress and settings may be stored locally on your device. Clearing app data, uninstalling the Game, changing devices, device failure, or loss of platform access may cause progress to be lost. We do not guarantee that locally stored progress can be recovered.
Optional Google Play Games features may provide sign-in, achievements, and leaderboards. Those features are operated by Google and are subject to Google's terms. You are responsible for keeping your platform account secure.
6. Virtual items and rewards
The Game may provide coins, lives, boosters, hints, rewards, unlocks, or other virtual items (“Virtual Items”). Virtual Items are licensed, not sold. They:
- may be used only within the Game and only as permitted by its rules;
- have no cash value and cannot be redeemed or exchanged for money, goods, or services;
- may not be sold, transferred, traded, or used outside the Game; and
- may be balanced, changed, limited, or removed when reasonably necessary to operate or update the Game.
Except where required by law, we are not required to compensate you for unused Virtual Items if the Game or a feature is changed or discontinued.
7. Purchases and subscriptions
The Game may offer non-consumable purchases or automatically renewing subscriptions, including options that remove advertising. Purchases are offered and processed by the applicable app store, not directly by us. You agree to provide accurate payment information to the store and to pay the displayed price and applicable taxes.
For a subscription, the price, billing period, trial terms, and renewal terms are displayed by the app store before purchase. Unless cancelled through your app-store account before renewal, a subscription may renew automatically and the store may charge the selected payment method. Deleting the Game does not cancel a subscription.
You are responsible for purchases made through your device or platform account, including maintaining authentication controls. If a purchased entitlement is not delivered, contact us with the Game name, platform, product, approximate purchase time, and transaction or order identifier. Do not send full payment-card details.
8. Cancellations and refunds
Refunds, cancellations, and billing disputes are handled under applicable law and the policies of the store that processed the transaction. We cannot directly reverse a transaction controlled by an app store.
- Google Play: use Google Play's purchase history and refund process. See Google Play refund guidance.
- Apple App Store: requests may be submitted at reportaproblem.apple.com.
Where a platform asks us to evaluate a refund, we may provide information relevant to the request, such as purchase status, entitlement delivery or use, app usage, and prior refunds, as described in our Privacy Policy. Statutory refund rights are not limited by these Terms.
9. Advertising and third-party services
The Game may display advertising, including rewarded advertising, and may link to third-party content or services. Availability and content of ads are controlled partly by third-party advertising providers. Choosing to view a rewarded ad does not guarantee a reward if playback, verification, or delivery is not completed.
Third-party platforms, app stores, advertising networks, and service providers operate under their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party content or services outside our control. Information about advertising and privacy choices is available in our Privacy Policy.
10. Intellectual property
The Services and all associated software, game mechanics as expressed in the Game, artwork, graphics, level content, designs, text, audio, names, logos, and other materials (“Content”) are owned by or licensed to Tap Vortex Games and are protected by intellectual-property and other laws.
You may not reproduce, publish, distribute, sell, license, modify, transmit, publicly perform, publicly display, or create derivative works from Content without prior written permission, except for normal personal use of the Game or as otherwise permitted by mandatory law. Third-party names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
11. Feedback and communications
If you send suggestions, ideas, bug reports, ratings, or other feedback, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, and incorporate that feedback for operating, improving, and promoting the Services, without compensation or obligation to you.
You retain ownership of personal information and any other rights that cannot legally be assigned. Our handling of feedback and support messages is described in the Privacy Policy.
12. Updates, changes, and availability
We may patch, update, rebalance, add, or remove features and Content. An update may be required to continue using the Game. Features may differ by device, operating system, store, country, language, or version.
We may suspend or discontinue some or all of the Services where reasonably necessary. We do not guarantee that the Services will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that every error will be corrected.
13. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Services and uninstall the Game at any time. We may restrict or terminate access if you materially or repeatedly violate these Terms, create legal or security risk, engage in fraud, or misuse the Services. Where reasonable and legally required, we will consider the seriousness of the violation and provide notice or an opportunity to remedy it.
On termination, the license granted by these Terms ends. Provisions concerning intellectual property, feedback, disclaimers, liability, disputes, and any terms that by their nature should survive will remain effective.
14. Warranties and disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available”. We disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Services will meet every requirement, operate without interruption, preserve all progress, or be compatible with every device.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits a warranty, consumer guarantee, or other right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
15. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Tap Vortex Games will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, business, opportunity, goodwill, data, game progress, or Virtual Items arising from or related to the Services.
Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited only to the maximum extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that applicable law does not allow us to limit.
16. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in the developer's jurisdiction, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. If you are a consumer, this choice does not remove mandatory rights or protections available under the laws of your country of residence.
Before starting formal proceedings, please contact us and describe the dispute so both sides can attempt to resolve it informally. You may also have access to courts, regulators, app-store procedures, or consumer dispute mechanisms provided by applicable law.
17. General terms
- Changes: We may update these Terms when the Services or legal requirements change. The revised version will be posted here with a new effective date. Additional notice will be provided where required.
- Severability: If a provision is found invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue to apply.
- No waiver: Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of the right to enforce it later.
- Assignment: You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our consent. We may transfer these Terms as part of a reorganization, financing, merger, acquisition, or transfer of the Services, subject to applicable law.
- Entire agreement: These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the agreement concerning the Services, except for mandatory platform terms or additional terms expressly presented for a feature.
