1. INTRODUCTION
In order for us to provide you with our games and related services which include gaming applications for mobile computing devices, social media gaming applications, fan pages, contests, promotions, forums, websites, viral features and related technology, and certain other services we provide ("Services"), it is important that we incorporate certain legal guidelines and rules to make sure everyone's rights are respected and that we are doing what we can to protect users' rights and your personal privacy.

These Terms govern only the Services We provide and do not cover other websites or any corresponding content, features, and activities made available by any other company, even if URLs or hyperlinks to such websites are provided within the Services, unless specifically stated.
These Terms apply to all users of the Services, whether you have registered an account or not (referred to herein as "User", "You" or "Your"), and by using the Services, you understand, acknowledge and agree that You shall comply with the terms and conditions of these Terms and any additional terms and conditions that govern certain products or services. The Services may also provide rules of participation for certain activities and services, including, without limitation, contests, sweepstakes, and other initiatives. Our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms, rules, or conditions, are hereby incorporated into these Terms by reference. To the extent that there is a conflict between these Terms and the specific terms or rules for the activity in which you choose to participate, these Terms shall govern.
2. ELIGIBILITY

If You provide information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or We suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, We have the right to suspend or terminate Your registration (in whole or in part) and refuse any and all current or future use of the Services (or any portion thereof), in Our sole discretion. If You reside outside of the United States of America (the "U.S."), You further acknowledge and agree that the Services are being provided solely in accordance with, the laws of the U.S., and the laws of the U.S. may differ from those of your particular jurisdiction(s). Please ensure that you are comfortable with these differences before accessing and using the Services.
3. MODIFICATIONS

We recommend that You check back frequently and review these Terms of Use regularly so you are aware of the most current rights and obligations that apply to You.
This agreement may not be otherwise amended except in a writing hand signed by You and Us. For purposes of this provision, "writing" does not include an e-mail message and a signature does not include an electronic signature.
If at any point You do not abide by Cyber Story's Terms, rules or codes of conduct relating to Your use of the Services, your license to use the Services shall immediately terminate and You must immediately stop using the Services.
4. LIMITED LICENSE
Subject to Your agreement and continuing compliance with these Terms and any other relevant Cyber Story policies, terms, conditions, or rules, Cyber Story grants You a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable limited license subject to the limitations set forth herein to access and use the Services using a supported web browser or mobile device solely for Your own non-commercial entertainment purposes.

You do not in fact "own" the Virtual Items 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 Services, 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 or redemption of a third party virtual currency that We accept. 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.

Even if you subsequently see or learn of a presentation, sound recording, composition, demo, idea, script, drawing, motion picture, photograph, film, video or any other content which appears to incorporate any idea or concept or include anything similar or identical to that contained in any User Posting you or anyone else submits, that is purely coincidental and unavoidable.
g) Your information, and the contents of all of your online communications (including without limitation chat text, voice communications, IP addresses and your personal information) may be accessed and monitored as necessary to provide the Services and may be disclosed: (i) when We have a good faith belief that We are required to disclose the information in response to legal process (for example, a court order, search warrant or subpoena); (ii) to satisfy any applicable laws or regulations (iii) where We believe that the Services is being used in the commission of a crime, including to report such criminal activity or to exchange information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection and credit risk reduction; (iv) when We have a good faith belief that there is an emergency that poses a threat to the health and/or safety of you, another person or the public generally; and (v) in order to protect the rights or property of Cyber Story, including to enforce our Terms.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
11. ACCOUNT AND PASSWORD
In order to access and use certain content, features, functionality and/or Services, we shall require you to register for the Services and have a unique username and password combination (collectively, a "User ID"). If you elect to become a registered User of the Services, you are responsible for maintaining the strict confidentiality of your User ID, and you shall be responsible for any access to or use of the Services by you or any person or entity using your User ID, whether or not such access or use has been authorized by you or on your behalf, and whether or not such person or entity is your employee or agent. You agree to (a) immediately notify Us of any unauthorized use of your User ID or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you log off from your account at the end of each session. It is your sole responsibility to (i) control the dissemination and use of your User ID, (ii) control access to your account, and (iii) cancel your account for the Services. We reserve the right to deny access, use and registration privileges to any User of the Services if we believe there is a question about the identity of the person trying to access any account or element of the Services.

12. ORDERS AND PURCHASES FOR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Within the Services and by virtue of your use thereof, you may purchase, with "real world" money, a license to use Virtual Items and or other goods or services. Purchases or redemptions of third party virtual currency to acquire a license to use virtual items are non-refundable.
You can license Virtual Items by visiting the purchase page in one of our games, providing your billing information, confirming the particulars of your purchase and re-affirming your agreement to these Terms. When you purchase a license to Virtual Items from our Services, We may send you a confirmatory e-mail that will contain details of the items you have ordered. Please check that the details in the confirmatory e-mail are correct as soon as possible and maintain a copy of it for your records. Cyber Story keeps records of transactions in order to deal with any subsequent queries. If you purchase third party virtual currency, you are agreeing to such third party's Payment Terms and agree that Cyber Story is not a party to the transaction.
For Virtual Items, your order will represent an offer to us to purchase a license for the relevant Services which will be accepted by us when We make the Virtual Items available in your account for you to use in our games or debit your credit card or account, whichever comes first.
Your license to Virtual Items for use in Our games is a service provided by Us that commences upon acceptance by Cyber Story of your purchase or redemption of third party virtual currency. By ordering a license to use Virtual Items you agree and accept that Cyber Story will provide it to you promptly following completion of your purchase. If you reside in the European Union and you purchase a product or service from Cyber Story, you may have the right to withdraw from a purchase within seven calendar days, commencing on the day after the date of purchase (the "Cooling Off Period"). However, you lose your right of withdrawal if the performance of the Services begins before the end of the Cooling Off Period. Accordingly, please note that if you purchase a license to use Virtual Items from Us, your right of withdrawal is lost as the performance of our Services begins promptly once your purchase is completed.
You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using a User account registered to you. Cyber Story may revise the pricing for the goods and services it licenses to you through the Service at any time. You acknowledge that Cyber Story is not required to provide a refund for any reason, and that you will not receive money or other compensation for unused virtual items when an account is closed, whether such closure was voluntary or involuntary.
13. ADVERTISMENTS
From time to time, you may choose to communicate with, interact with, or obtain goods and services of or from third parties such as our advertisers, sponsors, or promotional partners (collectively, the "Advertisers") found on or through the Services or a hyperlinked website. All such communication, interaction and participation is strictly and solely between you and such Advertisers and we shall not be responsible or liable to you in any way in connection with these activities or transactions (including, without limitation, any representations, warranties, covenants, contracts or other terms or conditions that may exist between you and the Advertisers or any goods or services you may purchase or obtain from any Advertiser).

12. ORDERS AND PURCHASES FOR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Within the Services and by virtue of your use thereof, you may purchase, with "real world" money, a license to use Virtual Items and or other goods or services. Purchases or redemptions of third party virtual currency to acquire a license to use virtual items are non-refundable.
You can license Virtual Items by visiting the purchase page in one of our games, providing your billing information, confirming the particulars of your purchase and re-affirming your agreement to these Terms. When you purchase a license to Virtual Items from our Services, We may send you a confirmatory e-mail that will contain details of the items you have ordered. Please check that the details in the confirmatory e-mail are correct as soon as possible and maintain a copy of it for your records. Cyber Story keeps records of transactions in order to deal with any subsequent queries. If you purchase third party virtual currency, you are agreeing to such third party's Payment Terms and agree that Cyber Story is not a party to the transaction.
For Virtual Items, your order will represent an offer to us to purchase a license for the relevant Services which will be accepted by us when We make the Virtual Items available in your account for you to use in our games or debit your credit card or account, whichever comes first.
Your license to Virtual Items for use in Our games is a service provided by Us that commences upon acceptance by Cyber Story of your purchase or redemption of third party virtual currency. By ordering a license to use Virtual Items you agree and accept that Cyber Story will provide it to you promptly following completion of your purchase. If you reside in the European Union and you purchase a product or service from Cyber Story, you may have the right to withdraw from a purchase within seven calendar days, commencing on the day after the date of purchase (the "Cooling Off Period"). However, you lose your right of withdrawal if the performance of the Services begins before the end of the Cooling Off Period. Accordingly, please note that if you purchase a license to use Virtual Items from Us, your right of withdrawal is lost as the performance of our Services begins promptly once your purchase is completed.
You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using a User account registered to you. Cyber Story may revise the pricing for the goods and services it licenses to you through the Service at any time. You acknowledge that Cyber Story is not required to provide a refund for any reason, and that you will not receive money or other compensation for unused virtual items when an account is closed, whether such closure was voluntary or involuntary.
