Terms of Use
Last updated: 1 January 2026.
These terms are an agreement between you and PuzzlesTime covering our mobile games and the website at puzzlestime.com. By downloading, installing or playing, you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use our apps.
1. Your licence
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and play our games on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial entertainment. Everything else stays with us.
2. What you agree not to do
- Copy, sell, rent, sub-licence or redistribute the apps or their content.
- Reverse engineer, decompile or modify the apps, except where the law expressly allows it.
- Cheat, use bots or automation, or tamper with in-app purchases, ads or game data.
- Use the apps in a way that breaks the law or harms other players or our providers.
3. Intellectual property
The games, artwork, level designs, audio, code, the PuzzlesTime name and logo are owned by us or licensed to us and are protected by copyright and trade mark law. Nothing here transfers ownership to you.
4. Advertising
Our games are free and are funded by advertising served through Google AdMob. By playing you accept that ads may be displayed, including banner, interstitial, app-open and rewarded formats. Where an ad-free option is offered as a purchase, it is described in the app. How advertising data is handled is set out in our Privacy Policy and, for apps that ask for tracking permission, our ATT Privacy Policy.
5. Purchases and subscriptions
Any purchase is processed by Apple or Google, not by us, and is subject to their terms. Prices are shown before you confirm. Digital items are delivered immediately and are generally non-refundable — refund requests go to the store you bought from (Apple: reportaproblem.apple.com; Google: Play Store order history). Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in your store account settings; cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. Statutory consumer rights, including EU withdrawal rights, are not affected.
6. Virtual items
Coins, hints, boosters and similar items have no monetary value outside the game, cannot be exchanged for cash, and may be changed or discontinued as the game evolves. They are licensed to you, not sold.
7. Availability and updates
We may update, change, suspend or discontinue any game or feature. We aim to give notice of significant changes, but we cannot promise uninterrupted availability.
8. Third-party services
Our apps rely on services from Apple, Google, AdMob and Firebase. Their own terms and privacy policies apply to what they do. Links from our site or apps to third-party content are provided for convenience and we are not responsible for that content.
9. Age
You must be old enough to accept these terms in your country, or have a parent or guardian's permission. Parents remain responsible for purchases made on their devices.
10. Disclaimer
The apps and website are provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by law we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Some jurisdictions do not allow such exclusions, in which case they do not apply to you.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, lost data or lost profits arising from your use of our apps. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the previous twelve months or USD 50. Nothing here limits liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot legally be limited.
12. Termination
You may stop at any time by deleting the app. We may suspend or end your licence if you breach these terms. Sections 3, 6, 10, 11 and 13 survive termination.
13. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws applicable at our place of establishment, without affecting mandatory consumer protection rights you enjoy where you live, including the right to bring proceedings in your local courts.
14. Apple-specific terms
For apps downloaded from the App Store: this agreement is between you and PuzzlesTime only, not Apple. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple for a refund of the purchase price; otherwise Apple has no warranty obligation. Apple is not responsible for product liability, third-party IP claims or legal-compliance claims relating to the app. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
15. Changes to these terms
We may revise these terms; the date at the top shows the current version. Continuing to use the apps after a change means you accept the revised terms.
