These terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and PocketBurst Arcade. Your continued use of our services indicates your acceptance of any updates or modifications to these terms.
Service Description and Availability
PocketBurst Arcade provides ultra-light casual games designed for quick play sessions, including puzzles, reflex challenges, and micro-competitions. Our services include free ad-supported games and premium subscription options.
We strive to maintain service availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Services may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or technical issues beyond our control.

To access certain features, you may need to create an account with accurate and complete information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.
You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. Users under 18 must have parental consent. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any security breaches.
Acceptable Use Guidelines
You agree to use our services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these terms. You may not use our services to transmit harmful, offensive, or illegal content, or to interfere with other users' enjoyment of our games.
Prohibited activities include cheating, hacking, exploiting bugs, creating multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions, and any behavior that disrupts the gaming environment or violates fair play principles.
Intellectual Property Rights
All content, features, and functionality of our games and services, including but not limited to text, graphics, logos, icons, images, audio clips, and software, are owned by PocketBurst Arcade and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.
You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use our services for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works without our express written permission.
Payment Terms and Subscriptions
Premium subscriptions and in-game purchases are processed through secure third-party payment providers. All fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable law or as specifically stated in our refund policy.
Subscription fees are charged in advance on a recurring basis. You may cancel your subscription at any time, but cancellation will not result in a refund for the current billing period. Premium benefits continue until the end of the paid period.
User-Generated Content
You may have the opportunity to submit content such as scores, achievements, or feedback. By submitting content, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, and display such content in connection with our services.
You represent that any content you submit is original, does not infringe third-party rights, and complies with our community guidelines. We reserve the right to remove any content that violates these terms or our policies.
Privacy and Data Protection
Your privacy is important to us. Our collection, use, and protection of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these terms by reference.
By using our services, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in our Privacy Policy. We implement appropriate security measures to protect your data but cannot guarantee absolute security.
Service Modifications and Termination
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of our services at any time without prior notice. We may also update game content, features, and functionality to improve user experience.
We may terminate or suspend your account and access to our services immediately, without prior notice, for conduct that we believe violates these terms or is harmful to other users or our business interests.
Disclaimers and Limitations
Our services are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We disclaim all warranties, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
We do not warrant that our services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure. Your use of our services is at your own risk, and you assume full responsibility for any risks associated with such use.
Liability Limitations
To the maximum extent permitted by law, PocketBurst Arcade shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, or use.
Our total liability to you for all claims arising from or relating to these terms or our services shall not exceed the amount you paid to us in the twelve months preceding the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless PocketBurst Arcade and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses arising from your use of our services or violation of these terms.
This indemnification obligation includes reasonable attorney fees and costs incurred in defending against such claims. We reserve the right to assume exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification.
Dispute Resolution
Any disputes arising from these terms or our services shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the applicable arbitration association, rather than in court, except where prohibited by law.
You waive any right to participate in class action lawsuits or class-wide arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted in English and governed by the laws of Brazil, without regard to conflict of law principles.
General Provisions
These terms constitute the entire agreement between you and PocketBurst Arcade regarding our services. If any provision is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. These terms are binding upon your heirs, successors, and assigns.
