Most Recent Update: 12/12/2020
I. Introduction and Agreement to these Terms of Service
Welcome and thanks for your interest in the products and services of Rocketeer Games Studio, LLC. ("RGS"). By accessing and playing any games, websites, or forums created or maintained by RGS (the "Games"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the most recent version of these Terms of Service ("Terms"). “RGS”, "Rocketeer", "we", "us", or "our" refer to Rocketeer Games Studio, LLC, and all of its subsidiaries.
Rocketeer reserves the right to revise these Terms at any time. If we do, we will post the modified Terms on this page and indicate the date of most the recent change above. You agree to read all notifications we send you and to periodically check this page for updates to these Terms. Your continued use of the Games constitutes acceptance of these Terms and any modifications thereto. If you object to any changes, your sole recourse is to cease use of the Games.
These Terms will cover your use of all products and services of RGS, including but not limited to our Website, Forums, our Games on all platforms, whether PC or Macintosh downloadable or browser based, Facebook, iOS, Android, Xbox, PlayStation, or any other game platform. The Terms will apply to all online and socially connected games. If you are playing any of the Games on Facebook, any activities on Facebook beyond the scope of the Games are governed by Facebook's Statement of Rights and Responsibilities. You can find Facebook's Statement of Rights here: http://www.facebook.com/terms.php.
II. Grant of a Limited License to Access Games
Subject to your agreement and continuing compliance with these Terms and any other relevant Rocketeer policies, RGS is granting you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable limited license to access the Games for your own non-commercial entertainment purposes only. You agree not to use the Games for any other purpose. If you violate any of these Terms, we reserve the right to terminate your license without notice. By accessing or using the Games, you accept and agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. You may also be required to register an account on the Games or Rocketeer website (an "Account"), have a valid account on the social networking service ("SNS") through which you connect to the Games, if any, or have an account with the applications provider for your mobile device. You warrant that you are not prohibited from receiving products of U.S. origin, including services or software. If you are between the ages of 13 and 17, you represent that your legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms.
You must provide all equipment and software necessary to connect to the Games, including, but not limited to, a mobile device that is suitable to connect with and use the Games, in cases where the Games offers a mobile component.
You are responsible for any fees, including Internet connection or mobile fees that you incur when accessing the Games. You are also responsible for adhering to any third party terms for using any third party SNS or mobile platforms.
III. Grant of Limited License for In-Game Currency, Goods and Items
You understand that while at times you may “earn” "buy" or "purchase" (a) virtual currency, including but not limited to virtual coins, cash, tokens, or points, all for use in the Games (“Virtual Currency”); or (b) virtual in-game goods or items (together with Virtual Currency, "Virtual Items" or “Virtual Goods”); these real world terms are only being used as shorthand. You do not in fact "own" the Virtual Items or Goods and the amounts of any Virtual Item do not refer to any credit balance of real currency or its equivalent. Rather, you may purchase a limited license to use the Games, including software programs that occasionally manifest themselves as these items. The purchase and sale of the limited license referred to in these Terms is a completed transaction upon receipt of your direct payment, in-app purchase, or redemption of a third party game card or a third party virtual currency like Facebook Credits. 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 license.
Virtual Items and Goods may be purchased with "real world" money from a third-party. Please note that RGS often does not handle any of the transactions of Virtual Currency. Your purchase of in game Virtual Currency is subject to terms and conditions of the third party or parties handling the transactions.
In addition to any third party obligations, the following shall apply. In no way can Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods be redeemed for "real world" money, goods, or other items of monetary value from any party. Transfers of Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods outside of the Games are strictly prohibited. This means you may not buy or sell Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods for "real world" money or otherwise exchange items for value outside of the Games.
You also agree that all sales of Virtual Currency and Virtual Goods are final. Neither Third Parties nor RGS will give any refunds. Other than a limited, revocable, non-transferable license to use the Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods in the Games, you have no right in or title to such Virtual Currency and Virtual Goods. In the event that your account is terminated or suspended for any reason, in RGS's sole and absolute discretion, or if RGS discontinues any of its Games, you forfeit any and all Virtual Currency and Goods. RGS has the absolute right to manage, regulate, control, modify, and/or eliminate Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Goods as it sees fit in its sole discretion, and Rocketeer Games Studio shall have no liability to you or anyone for the exercise of such rights.
IV. Rights to Content
"Content" means all software, communications, images, sounds, and material perceived or made available from the Games. Unless otherwise specified in writing, all Content is owned, controlled, or licensed by RGS. All Content is copyrighted under United States copyright laws and/or similar laws of other jurisdictions, protecting it from unauthorized use.

Rocketeer has no responsibility to monitor player behavior or enforce the Code of Conduct. RGS may choose at its own sole discretion not to penalize a user for a claimed violation of this Code of Conduct. Non-enforcement in one instant of any violation by a user does not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent violation by that or any other user.
