Terms of Service

By downloading or using the Spades: No Ads app (“the App”) you agree to these terms.

License

You receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the App on devices you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms under which you installed it.

In-app purchases

The App is free to download. A single optional Unlimited Play in-app purchase removes the per-game coin cost forever. There are no subscriptions, no coin packs, and no other recurring charges.

All purchases are processed by Apple. Family Sharing is enabled — one purchase covers your household per Apple’s Family Sharing rules. Purchases are restorable on any device signed in with the same Apple ID; tap “Restore Purchases” inside the App.

Your content

The App does not let you create accounts, post content, or share data with other users. Your game progress, settings and finished games are saved locally on your device. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Game data for training the AI

When you accept these terms in the App, the App sends a record of each game you finish to its developer, to train and test the App’s computer players. A record holds the game’s rules, the cards dealt, every bid and card played, which seats were played by the computer and at what difficulty, and the App’s version number. It holds no name, account, device identifier, location or contact details, and it is not linked to you. Games you started from a shared deal, and games you did not finish, are never sent.

You grant the developer a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, copy and use those game records to develop, train and evaluate game-playing software, including the App. The records are not sold, and are not used for advertising.

Accepting is optional: if you choose “Not Now”, no games are sent and the App works the same way. Once accepted, sending is part of using the App; there is no setting to turn it off, so if you no longer want games sent, stop using the App. Records already received cannot be traced back to you, so they cannot be picked out and deleted on request.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change, the new version is posted at this address with a new “Last updated” date, and the App asks you to review it on the next launch. Game data is sent only under a version of these terms you have accepted.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Decompile, reverse-engineer, or attempt to extract source code from the App, except to the extent applicable law permits
• Use the App in a way that violates applicable laws or infringes the rights of others
• Circumvent or attempt to circumvent the in-app-purchase mechanisms

Warranty disclaimer

The App is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the maximum extent allowed by law.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App’s developer shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the App.
