Terms of Service for WordWonk

Effective date:

WordWonk is provided by LimaBeanLabs ("we," "us," or "our"). These terms apply to the WordWonk website, apps, multiplayer services, and Discord Activity (together, the "Service").

1. Agreement and eligibility

By using WordWonk, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. You must be at least 13 years old and meet any higher minimum age required where you live. If you are not old enough to agree to these terms yourself, your parent or legal guardian must review and agree to them on your behalf.

Playing through Discord also requires that you meet Discord's eligibility requirements and follow its Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.

2. Permission to play

We give you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable permission to use the Service for lawful entertainment while you follow these terms. This permission does not transfer ownership of WordWonk to you. Rights granted by applicable law or a separate open-source license remain intact.

3. Profiles and access

You are responsible for protecting your devices, Discord account, and any private WordWonk recovery codes. Do not share recovery codes or use someone else's profile without permission. Contact us if you believe your profile has been accessed without authorization.

Browser profiles may depend on saved browser data. Clearing that data or changing devices can affect access to your progress. Discord-linked profiles depend on access to the associated Discord account. We cannot guarantee that lost profiles, scores, or progress can be restored.

4. Fair play and acceptable use

When using WordWonk, you must not:

Report bugs, security concerns, and abusive behavior to limabeanlabs@gmail.com.

5. Multiplayer and Discord

Other players in your game can see gameplay information such as your player name, avatar, words played, and scores. Multiplayer history may include opponents and results. Choose names and images that you have permission to use and are comfortable displaying to other players.

When channel result posting is enabled, WordWonk may post round results and player names in the Discord channel associated with the Activity. Those posts can be visible to channel members who did not play. Channel messages are also subject to Discord's controls and the server's moderation rules.

WordWonk is operated by LimaBeanLabs. These terms are an agreement between you and LimaBeanLabs. Discord is responsible for its own platform, and these terms do not replace or modify your agreement with Discord. Features that rely on Discord or another platform may change or become unavailable when that platform changes.

6. Content and ownership

WordWonk's software, branding, artwork, and other original materials belong to LimaBeanLabs or their respective owners. Third-party materials remain subject to their own licenses.

You retain any rights you have in names, images, or other content you provide. You give us permission to use, store, and display that content as needed to operate WordWonk, including multiplayer profiles, game history, and enabled channel result posts. This permission is limited to providing the Service and does not transfer ownership of your content.

7. Privacy and deletion

See our Privacy Policy for information about data handling and our Account Deletion Policy for deletion requests. You can also contact limabeanlabs@gmail.com with questions about your data. Never email us a password, access token, or private recovery code.

8. Availability and game changes

We may update game rules, word lists, scoring, features, and supported platforms, and may correct invalid scores or results. Maintenance, outages, connectivity problems, and updates can interrupt games or affect saved progress. We do not promise uninterrupted access or permanent availability of any feature, score, ranking, or game history.

9. Ending access

You may stop using WordWonk at any time and request deletion as described above. We may restrict or suspend access when reasonably necessary to address violations of these terms, protect users or the Service, or meet legal requirements. We may also discontinue the Service. If you believe a restriction was a mistake, contact us to request a review.

10. Disclaimers and responsibility

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the Service will be error-free or that every word list, definition, score, or result will be accurate.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, LimaBeanLabs is not responsible for indirect or consequential losses arising from use of, or inability to use, the Service, including lost profits or lost game progress.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, or gross negligence where applicable. These terms do not remove mandatory consumer rights available where you live.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms and will publish the updated text and effective date on this page. For material changes, we will provide notice on the website or in the Service before they take effect, except when an immediate change is needed for legal or security reasons. If you do not agree to updated terms, stop using the Service. Changes do not retroactively remove rights you already have under applicable law.

If a provision cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
