  1. Limited License

Glu grants you access to our Services for your personal enjoyment, only. Our Services may be updated anytime without notice to you. We use specific security software, tools, and technologies to combat fraud and cheating. If you use our Services for a prohibited purpose, we will terminate your use of the Services.

Our Services, including the text, graphics, images, photographs, videos, illustrations, trademarks, trade names, service marks, logos, slogans, Virtual Items (defined below) and other content contained therein, are owned by or licensed to Glu and are protected under United States laws and the laws of other jurisdictions. Except as explicitly stated in these Terms, Glu and our licensors reserve all rights in and to our Services. You are hereby granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use our Services for your own personal use and to install our mobile applications on a device that you own or control; however, such license is subject to these Terms and does not include any right to (a) sell, resell or commercially use our Services; (b) copy, reproduce, distribute, publicly perform or publicly display the Services, except as expressly permitted by us or our licensors; (c) modify the Services, remove any proprietary rights notices or markings, or otherwise make any derivative uses of our Services; (d) reverse engineer, except to the limited extent expressly authorized by statute (where applicable), any aspect of our Services or do anything that might discover source code or bypass or circumvent measures employed to prevent or limit access to any part of our Services; or (e) use our Services other than for their intended purposes.

  1. Glu Virtual Items Terms

Glu provides games, features, and content through their Services.  Some Services may include the ability to earn or purchase Virtual Items, including through a subscription plan. You can cancel your subscription plan at any time. Virtual Items have no value outside of our Services and cannot be resold or transferred. Virtual Items are non-refundable unless required by local law.

Glu may offer different types of digital content, credits, coins or other virtual items for which you may (i) purchase a limited license to use via the Services (“Purchased Virtual Items”) or (ii) earn or otherwise receive a limited license to use via the Services (“Earned Virtual Items”, together with the Purchased Virtual Items, collectively, “Virtual Items”).  You understand that while you may “earn” “buy” or “purchase” Virtual Items in our Services, you do not legally own the Virtual Items and the amounts of any Virtual Item do not refer to any credit balance of real currency or its equivalent. Any virtual currency balance shown in your account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value, but instead constitutes a measurement of the extent of your limited license.  You acknowledge that any Virtual Items (including without limitation any virtual currency) that you obtain in connection with the Services have no monetary value, and do not have any value of any kind outside of the Services.

(a) Payment and Billing. Your purchase of Virtual Items through any authorized third party distributor of our Services, such as the Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Games,  Facebook, Samsung or Xsolla (collectively, the “Authorized Distributors”), is subject to the applicable Authorized Distributor’s payment terms and conditions, and any data or information you provide to an Authorized Distributor will be subject to that Authorized Distributor’s privacy policy.  Please review the applicable Authorized Distributor’s terms of service and privacy policy for additional information. You represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the payment method you use to purchase Virtual Items.  You authorize the applicable Authorized Distributor to charge your payment method for the total amount of your purchase (including any applicable taxes and other charges). If the payment method cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable, your order may be suspended or cancelled. You must resolve any problem encountered in order to proceed with your order.  When you purchase a limited license to use Virtual Items from our Services, we and/or the applicable Authorized Distributor may send you an acknowledgment email that will have details of the items you have ordered. Please check that the details in the acknowledgement email are correct as soon as possible and keep a copy of it for your records.

(b) Withdrawal Right for Purchased Virtual Items. You have a legal right to withdraw your purchase of Purchased Virtual Items within 14 days from the date of purchase; provided, however, that you may not be able to withdraw an order for Purchased Virtual Items once they have been made available to you.  Please contact the applicable Authorized Distributor you used to purchase the Purchased Virtual Items  and review their terms for further details regarding the withdrawal right provided by such Authorized Distributor, or to exercise your withdrawal right with such Authorized Distributor.

(c) Third-Party Sales. Glu does not authorize, and expressly prohibits, the purchase of Virtual Items from third parties (i.e., from any third party that is not one of our Authorized Distributors).  You will not offer to sell or purchase Virtual Items to or from other users or third parties and will not sell or purchase Virtual Items to or from third parties.  In addition to violating these Terms, these resale purchase transactions may be fraudulent or may lead to identity theft.  Glu is not responsible for any such transactions or any damages or harm that you might incur if you engage in transactions involving Virtual Items with other users or third parties.

(d) Pricing and Taxes. All prices for Virtual Items include applicable taxes and other charges.  Prices for Virtual Items are subject to change at any time, but changes will not affect any order you have already placed.   You are responsible for any value-added or other governmental taxes, fees or duties due with respect to your order.

(e) Subscriptions. We may offer different subscription plans for purchasing Virtual Items (each, a “Subscription”). WHEN YOU PURCHASE A SUBSCRIPTION, (I) YOU AUTHORIZE THE AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR YOU USE TO ACQUIRE THE VIRTUAL ITEMS TO CHARGE YOUR DESIGNATED PAYMENT METHOD FOR THE PERIOD (E.G., WEEKLY, MONTHLY OR ANNUALLY) SPECIFIED IN YOUR SUBSCRIPTION (IN ADDITION TO ANY APPLICABLE TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES SPECIFIED AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE) FOR AS LONG AS YOUR SUBSCRIPTION CONTINUES, AND (II) YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IS CONTINUOUS UNTIL YOU CANCEL IT OR WE SUSPEND OR STOP PROVIDING ACCESS TO OUR SERVICES OR PRODUCTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS.  The Subscription period (or an indication that the Subscription will continue until cancelled), how to cancel your Subscription, the cost of the Subscription you purchase and any other material terms are disclosed prior to purchase and may be confirmed via email by Glu and/or the applicable Authorized Distributor.

(f) Cancelling Subscriptions. YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME THROUGH THE TOOLS MADE AVAILABLE BY THE APPLICABLE AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR.  SUBSCRIPTIONS MUST BE CANCELLED BEFORE THE END OF THE BILLING CYCLE (I.E., BEFORE THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD ENDS AS INDICATED BY THE AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR) IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING CHARGED FOR THE NEXT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD.  IF YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AFTER THE APPLICABLE BILLING CYCLE ENDS, IT WILL NOT TAKE EFFECT UNTIL THE FOLLOWING SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD.  YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL CHARGES (INCLUDING ANY APPLICABLE TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES) INCURRED WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUBSCRIPTION ORDER PROCESSED PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF YOUR CANCELLATION.

(g) Redemption. Virtual Items may be redeemed solely for digital goods or services made available through our Services.  You may redeem Virtual Items only by the method and within the scope described via the Services. For example, unless otherwise specifically designated for a particular Virtual Item, if you purchase Virtual Items in a specific game, you can only redeem those Virtual Items in that specific game.

(h) Restrictions. Subject to Section 4(b), except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law (for example where Purchased Virtual Items are defective), all sales of Purchased Virtual Items are final, and all Purchased Virtual Items are non-returnable and non-refundable.  Virtual Items cannot be resold, transferred for value, redeemed for cash or applied to any other account.  We may limit the number of Virtual Items you can purchase or use within certain periods of time or implement other restrictions on the receipt or use of Virtual Items.  Any limitations will be made available to you in the game tutorial, when reaching a new level, when attaining a new status or some similar event or achievement within a game, or otherwise within the Services.  We may further restrict your ability to redeem your Virtual Items based on your place of residence. SUBJECT TO SECTION 4(B), EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW (FOR EXAMPLE WHERE PURCHASED VIRTUAL ITEMS ARE DEFECTIVE), YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT GLU IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, NOR IS GLU REQUIRED TO PROVIDE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED VIRTUAL ITEMS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED, WHETHER SUCH CLOSURE WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY (FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAVE DECIDED TO STOP MAKING THE GAME AVAILABLE OR WE CLOSE YOUR ACCOUNT BECAUSE OF YOUR VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS OF USE), WHETHER YOU MADE A PAYMENT THROUGH AN AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR OR ANY OTHER SITES OR PLATFORMS WHERE WE OFFER OUR SERVICES. Glu will endeavor to inform you of these consequences prior to the closure of your account.  AS AN EXAMPLE, WE MAY SEND NOTIFICATIONS OF IMPENDING SHUTDOWNS OF GAMES IN ADVANCE THROUGH THE AFFECTED GAME IN POPUP MESSAGES. ALSO, WHERE SUCH GAME FEATURES EXIST, WE MAY BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE VIA A GAME’S MESSAGING FEATURE ABOUT SHUTDOWNS AND/OR THE VIOLATIONS OF THE TERMS OF USE THAT WE OBSERVE; HOWEVER, NOTE THAT UNINSTALLING A GAME FROM YOUR DEVICE WILL PREVENT ANY OF THESE TYPES OF NOTICES FROM REACHING YOU.

(i) Inactivity. While the Virtual Items you purchase do not expire, if you do not log into your account for a period of at least 4 years, or if you deactivate your account, then you authorize us, without further notice to you, to distribute Virtual Items in your account to other users as gifts or to redeem all Virtual Items remaining in your account for any content or items we select and to distribute or provide access to that content or items to other users as gifts.

These Terms are the agreement between you and Glu relating to your access and use of the Services.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, if any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Glu relating to your access to and use of our Services. The failure of Glu to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity. All of your transactions and communications with us may, at our option, be conducted electronically.

These Terms can be updated by Glu at any time.  If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may not be able to play our games.

We may make changes to these Terms from time to time to, for example, reflect changes to our Services (e.g., adding new features or benefits to the Services, retiring certain features of certain Services) or for legal, regulatory or security reasons. If we make changes to these Terms, such changes will apply on a going-forward basis, and we will provide notice of such changes, such as by sending an email notification or providing notice through our Services, and by posting the amended Terms to our Services and updating the “Last Updated” date above. Unless we say otherwise in our notice, the amended Terms will be effective immediately.
