Terms of Service — Get Down, CAT!!

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the mobile game Get Down, CAT!! (the "Game"), provided by CliffPoint Technologies LLC, doing business as MattyC Labs ("we", "us"). By downloading, installing, or playing the Game, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the Game.

1. The app-store agreement also applies

You get the Game through a third-party app store (such as the Apple App Store or Google Play). Your use is also subject to that store's terms, and any purchase, refund, or billing is handled by the store, not by us. Where these Terms conflict with the store's terms regarding purchases, the store's terms govern the transaction itself.

2. License

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and play the Game on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial entertainment. You do not own the Game; you are licensed to use it.

3. Purchases

The Game is a paid app — a one-time purchase from the app store. It also offers optional in-app purchases, of two different kinds, both sold from the in-game "The Good Stuff" screen. We describe them separately here because they are genuinely different things.

(a) Boosts — these change how the Game plays.

They are not cosmetic. Each one makes a run easier or gives you more to work with — an extra counter, an extra item slot, permanent power-ups, or automated targeting. Every boost is described in the Game before you buy, and each can be switched on and off at any time once owned.
They are sold individually or as a single bundle.
Runs that use any boost are recorded on a separate leaderboard from unboosted runs, so buying a boost does not displace players who haven't. See section 5.

(b) Skin packs — these change only how things look.

A skin pack is a set of costumes: outfits for the player character, headgear for the cats, and alternative looks for weapons you already have. You can mix and match freely across any packs you own.
A skin changes appearance only. It does not change any weapon's damage, reach or speed, any cat's behaviour, or anything else about how a run plays — a weapon wearing a skin is the same weapon. Buying a skin pack does not move your runs to the boosted leaderboard; a run with skins and no boosts is a standard run.
Some packs are tied to a season and go on sale when that season opens. Once a pack has gone on sale it stays available, and a pack you have bought stays yours year-round.
Kitchen themes are free. The seasonal looks that dress the kitchen itself are included with the Game and are not sold.

Applying to both kinds:

You do not need to buy anything to play the whole Game. Every part of how the Game plays — all waves, weapons, items, cats, and every leaderboard — is available without any in-app purchase. Boosts are optional and lock no gameplay away; skin packs lock away nothing but their own artwork.
All purchases are one-time and permanent (non-consumable). There are no subscriptions, no consumable charges, no loot boxes, and no in-game currency.
Purchases are tied to your app-store account, not to us — we have no accounts. You can re-download them on your other devices signed in to that same store account, and the Game's Restore Purchases button asks the store to re-check what you own.
All prices are shown in the store, in your local currency, before you buy. Prices may change over time; a change never affects something you have already bought.
Purchases, billing, and refunds are processed by the app store. Refund eligibility is governed by the store's policies and applicable law, not by us.
In-app purchases confer no real-world value and cannot be exchanged, transferred, sold, or cashed out.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the Game's source or assets, except where that restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
Cheat, exploit, script, or otherwise manipulate the global leaderboards, or submit automated or fraudulent scores, or submit a boosted run to the standard board.
Submit leaderboard initials or other content that is unlawful, hateful, harassing, obscene, or that impersonates or identifies another person.
Use the Game to violate any law or the rights of others.

5. Leaderboards

The Game includes optional global leaderboards where you may submit a short set of initials with your score. You are responsible for what you submit.

Boards are split by whether a run used paid boosts. A run in which any boost was active at any point is recorded on the boosted board; only a run with none active throughout goes to the standard board. The Game decides this for you and cannot be talked out of it by switching a boost off mid-run — attempting to defeat that split by any other means is a breach of section 4.

We may remove any leaderboard entry — and restrict leaderboard access — at our discretion, for example if an entry appears abusive, fraudulent, or in violation of these Terms. See the Privacy Policy for what leaderboard data is handled and how.

6. Intellectual property

The Game, including its code, art, characters, audio, and name, is owned by MattyC Labs and protected by law. These Terms grant you no rights to our trademarks or content beyond the license to play the Game.

7. Disclaimer of warranties

The Game is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Game will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the leaderboard will always be available. Some jurisdictions don't allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of the above may not apply to you.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CliffPoint Technologies LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data or profits, arising from your use of the Game. To the extent liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid us for the Game and any in-app purchases (if any). Some jurisdictions don't allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.

9. Changes to the Game and Terms

We may update, change, or discontinue the Game or any feature (including the leaderboards) at any time. We will not revoke an in-app purchase you have already made, though a feature it affects may change as the Game is updated. We may also update these Terms; when we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date. Continuing to play after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

10. Termination

You may stop using the Game at any time by uninstalling it. We may suspend or terminate your access (for example, leaderboard access) if you violate these Terms.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute will be subject to the courts located there, unless applicable consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring it elsewhere.
