Terms & Conditions
Welcome to The Gnomestead Collective. These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and The Gnomestead Collective (“the Collective,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your use of our website and mobile applications (together, the “Services”). By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Services.
1. Who can use the Services
You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required in your region) to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you should review these Terms with a parent or guardian.
2. Your account
Some features require an account. You’re responsible for keeping your account secure and for activity that happens under it. Please let us know right away if you believe your account has been used without your permission.
3. Being a good neighbor
When using the Services, you agree not to:
- Break the law or infringe anyone’s rights;
- Cheat, tamper with, reverse engineer, or interfere with the Services or gameplay;
- Falsify step or activity data, or use bots, scripts, or devices to generate movement you didn’t actually make;
- Upload harmful code, attempt to gain unauthorized access, or disrupt other visitors’ experience;
- Harass, threaten, or mistreat fellow members of our little community.
4. Health & safety
Our apps encourage walking and movement, but they are for fun and are not medical or fitness advice. Always be aware of your surroundings, follow local laws, and don’t use the Services while doing anything that requires your full attention (like driving). Move at a pace that’s safe for you.
5. Our content & intellectual property
The stories, artwork, characters, names, logos, software, and other materials in the Services belong to the Collective and their respective makers, and are protected by law. You may enjoy them for your own personal, non-commercial use, but you may not copy, distribute, sell, or create derivative works from them without our permission.
6. Your content
If the Services let you submit content (such as a display name or messages), you keep ownership of it, but you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use it as needed to operate and improve the Services. Please only submit content you have the right to share, and keep it kind.
7. Purchases
If the Services offer paid items or subscriptions, purchases are handled through the applicable app store and are subject to that store’s terms. Unless required by law, purchases are non-refundable.
8. Changes to the Services
We’re always tending and growing the Gnomestead, so we may add, change, or remove features, or pause or discontinue the Services, at any time.
9. Disclaimers
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We don’t promise the Services will always be uninterrupted, error-free, or perfectly accurate.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Collective will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services.
11. Changes to these Terms
We may tidy up these Terms now and then. When we make meaningful changes, we’ll update the date above and, where appropriate, let you know within the Services. Continuing to use the Services means you accept the updated Terms.
