These Terms of Service explain the rules for using Penguin Village (the “App”). The App is provided by Ethann Yakabuski, trading as Piledrivegames, based in Ontario, Canada (“we”, “us” or “our”). You can contact us at piledrivegames@gmail.com. If the App has a published Google Play listing, additional developer contact details are available in its App support section.
1. Using the App
Please read these terms before using the App. By using the App after having an opportunity to review these terms, you agree to them to the extent an agreement can validly be formed under applicable law. If you do not agree, do not use the App. Nothing in these terms takes away rights that the law gives you and does not allow you to waive.
The App is intended for personal entertainment. Its current features, content rating and device requirements are described in its Google Play listing. Availability and compatibility may vary by device, operating system version and region.
2. Children, parents and guardians
If you are not old enough to enter into a binding agreement where you live, ask a parent or legal guardian to review these terms and the App’s privacy policy with you and give permission before you use the App. Parents and guardians should consider the content rating and supervise use in a way appropriate to their child’s age.
A parent’s permission to play is separate from any verifiable parental consent required by privacy law. Agreeing to these terms does not provide consent to collect, use or disclose a child’s personal information, authorize personalized advertising to children, or waive children’s or parents’ privacy rights. The App’s privacy policy explains its data practices and applicable advertising settings.
3. Permission to play and ownership
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable permission to install and use the App on devices you own or are authorized to use, for personal, non-commercial play, subject to these terms and applicable Google Play rules.
The App’s code, artwork, audio, names and other content belong to Piledrivegames or their respective rights holders. This permission does not transfer ownership of that content. You must not sell, redistribute or commercially exploit the App or its assets without the relevant rights holder’s permission. Any rights granted by applicable open-source or third-party licences remain in effect.
4. Fair play and acceptable use
Use the App lawfully and respect other players. You must not:
- Manipulate online scores, achievements or rankings through cheats, unauthorized automation or knowingly submitted false results.
- Interfere with the App’s security or operation, distribute malicious code, or attempt unauthorized access to services or another person’s account.
- Use player names or other information you submit to harass others, impersonate someone, or infringe another person’s rights.
- Copy, modify, reverse engineer or extract the App or its assets except where we authorize it, an applicable licence permits it, or the law gives you that right.
If you find a bug or security issue, please report it to us. Good-faith reporting does not itself violate these terms.
5. Free play, advertisements and charges
The App is free to download and play. As of the effective date above, it contains advertisements and does not offer paid downloads, in-app purchases or subscriptions. Your mobile provider may charge for data or internet access.
Advertising availability and formats may vary. If the App offers a rewarded advertisement, choosing to watch it is optional and the offered reward is described in the App. Ad loading can depend on your connection and the advertising provider. Contact us if a completed advertisement fails to provide the stated reward.
Advertising does not change your rights under privacy law or applicable protections for children. An advertisement is not an endorsement of the advertised product. If you choose to visit an advertiser’s website or obtain a separate product, that provider’s terms apply to that separate interaction.
We will not introduce charges based solely on your acceptance of these terms. If paid features are offered in the future, their price and relevant purchase terms will be presented before you choose to buy them. Any applicable cancellation, refund or other consumer rights will continue to apply.
6. Progress, rewards and online features
Game progress, scores, achievements, in-game currency and unlocked items are features of the App. They have no cash value and cannot be redeemed for money or transferred outside the App unless we expressly provide that functionality.
Progress may be stored on your device or through supported third-party services, depending on the App and the features you use. Do not assume that every game or feature includes cloud backup or cross-device restoration. Uninstalling the App, clearing its data, changing devices or losing access to a connected account may affect saved progress. These practical limitations do not exclude any responsibility or remedy required by law.
Where available, online features such as leaderboards, achievements or connected saves may require internet access and an eligible Google Play Games account. Google’s account requirements and service terms apply to your use of its services. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure; do not send passwords to us.
7. Privacy and third-party services
Please read the Penguin Village privacy policy for information about data handling, advertising and services used by the App. These terms do not replace that policy or any separate consent required by law.
Google Play, Google Play Games, advertising providers and other third-party services may be subject to their own terms and privacy notices. Their involvement does not remove our obligations to you under applicable law. If you have a privacy question or are a parent or guardian seeking help with a child’s information, contact piledrivegames@gmail.com.
8. Updates and availability
We may update the App to fix bugs, address security or legal requirements, improve performance, or change gameplay and balance. Some features may depend on third-party services or require a supported version of the App. We do not promise uninterrupted availability or compatibility with every device.
If a change materially reduces an ongoing service or we plan to discontinue it, we will provide reasonable advance notice where practicable and any notice or remedy required by law. Urgent security, legal or operational issues may require quicker action. Nothing in this section excludes any legal obligation to supply necessary updates or maintain conformity.
9. Ending use and restricting access
You can stop using the App at any time and uninstall it. Uninstalling may remove locally saved progress and does not necessarily delete information held by third-party services; consult the privacy policy and those services’ account controls.
Where we operate an online feature, we may remove manipulated results or restrict access if reasonably necessary to address a material breach of these terms, fraud, a security risk or a legal requirement. We will use proportionate measures and, where appropriate and practicable, explain the reason and give you an opportunity to respond or correct the issue. You can ask us to review a restriction by emailing piledrivegames@gmail.com.
10. Consumer rights and responsibility
We aim to provide an enjoyable and functioning App, but cannot promise that it will be free of every bug, interruption or compatibility issue. Contact us if it does not work as described so we can investigate.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for losses that were not reasonably foreseeable when you accepted these terms, or for business losses arising from use of an App supplied for personal entertainment. This does not exclude liability for fraud, deliberate wrongdoing, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or anything else for which liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Nothing in these terms excludes or restricts mandatory rights or remedies under applicable consumer law, including in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom. Any legal rights concerning digital content or services, required updates, conformity, repairs, refunds or compensation remain available where applicable, including where the law applies to a service provided without a monetary payment.
11. Changes to these terms
We may revise these terms for legal, security or operational reasons, or to reflect changes to the App. We will post the revised terms here with an updated effective date. Material changes will be communicated by appropriate means, such as a prominent website notice, an App notice or the store update information, with reasonable advance notice where practicable and as required by law.
Changes do not take away rights or claims that have already arisen. Where the law requires your agreement to a change, we will obtain it before applying the change to you. If you do not agree to a proposed change, you may stop using the App, without losing any rights or remedies available under applicable law.
12. Applicable law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, except where mandatory law provides otherwise. If you are a consumer living elsewhere, this choice does not deprive you of protections under mandatory laws of your country of residence.
Please contact us first if you have a concern so we can try to resolve it. Doing so is not a prerequisite to exercising a legal right. These terms do not impose mandatory arbitration, waive collective or class-action rights, or prevent you from bringing a claim in a court available to you under applicable law. If a provision cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law.
