Terms of Service

Last updated: March 31, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of Geo Climber (the "App") provided by Twikkel B.V. ("we", "us", or "our"), a company registered in the Netherlands. By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the App. If you are under 18, you must have your parent or guardian's consent to use the App, and your parent or guardian must agree to these Terms on your behalf. By using the App, you represent that you meet these requirements.

2. Accounts

  • You may create an account using Apple Game Center, social login providers (such as Apple, Google, or Facebook), or other methods we make available.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. We assume that anyone using your account has your permission to do so.
  • You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it up to date.
  • Accounts that are inactive for 180 or more consecutive days may be deleted without notice. Any virtual currency, virtual items, or progress associated with a deleted account will be forfeited without refund.

3. License

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to download and use the App on your personal device for your own non-commercial entertainment purposes. Your use of the App is licensed, not sold, to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Twikkel B.V..

4. In-App Purchases and Virtual Currency

  • The App may offer in-app purchases ("IAPs") for virtual currency ("Virtual Money"), virtual items, cosmetics, or other digital content (collectively, "Virtual Content").
  • Virtual Content has no real-world monetary value, is not real currency, and cannot be redeemed for real money, goods, or services outside the App.
  • You have no property interest, ownership, or other right in any Virtual Content, regardless of any real money you may have spent to acquire it.
  • Trading, selling, gifting, or otherwise transferring Virtual Content to other players or third parties is prohibited, whether inside or outside the App, unless expressly enabled by us.
  • All sales of Virtual Content are final and non-refundable, except as required by applicable law.
  • All IAPs are processed through Apple's App Store or other authorized payment processors and are subject to their payment terms and refund policies.
  • We reserve the right to manage, regulate, control, modify, or remove any Virtual Content at any time and without notice, including adjusting prices, availability, earning rates, and conversion ratios. We shall have no liability to you or any third party for the exercise of such rights.
  • If your account is terminated for violation of these Terms, you forfeit all Virtual Content associated with your account without refund.

EU/EEA residents: You have a 14-day right of withdrawal from the date of purchase. However, by making an in-app purchase, you consent to the immediate performance of the digital content and acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once the Virtual Content is delivered to your account.

5. User Conduct

You agree not to:

  • Cheat, exploit bugs, use automation software (bots), mods, hacks, or manipulate gameplay in any unauthorized way
  • Harass, threaten, abuse, or engage in conduct that is racist, xenophobic, sexist, discriminatory, defamatory, or otherwise offensive toward other players or our staff
  • Share inappropriate, offensive, or illegal content through any social, sharing, or community features
  • Impersonate any person or entity, or falsely represent your affiliation with any person or entity
  • Sell, trade, or distribute Virtual Content outside the App, or exploit the App commercially without our written consent
  • Harvest, mine, scrape, or collect personal data about other players
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the App, other accounts, or our systems, or circumvent any security or authentication measures
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works from the App or its components
  • Upload or transmit malicious code, viruses, or any content designed to disrupt the App
  • Engage in any activity that disrupts, damages, or interferes with the App or other players' experience

We may monitor gameplay, communications, and account activity to detect and enforce violations of these Terms.

6. Social Features and User Content

  • The App may include social features such as leaderboards, friend connections, messaging, content sharing, and player profiles.
  • By using social features, you agree that certain information (display name, avatar, scores, shared content, location) may be visible to other players and may be used in connection with the App's features and marketing.
  • Display names must not contain personal information (real name, email, phone), impersonate other players or public figures, or include offensive or prohibited content. We reserve the unconditional right to remove, reclaim, or reassign any display name at our sole discretion. Automated moderation tools may be used to detect prohibited content.
  • You retain ownership of content you create, but you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, reproduce, modify, display, distribute, and create derivative works from your content in connection with the App and our services. You waive any moral rights in your submitted content to the extent permitted by law.
  • We may remove any user content that violates these Terms or that we find objectionable, at our sole discretion, without notice.

7. Intellectual Property

The App and all its content — including artwork, music, sound effects, code, game design, characters, and branding — are owned by Twikkel B.V. and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from any part of the App without our prior written permission.

8. Account Suspension and Termination

  • We may suspend or terminate your account at any time if you materially breach these Terms, repeatedly commit minor breaches, or engage in behavior that is harmful to other players, our staff, or the App.
  • For serious violations, no prior notice will be provided.
  • Upon termination, you lose access to your account and forfeit all Virtual Content without refund or compensation.
  • You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us at hello@geoclimber.app. Account deletion results in permanent loss of all associated data and progress.

9. Service Changes and Discontinuation

We may update, modify, or discontinue the App or any of its features at any time. If we permanently discontinue the App, we will provide reasonable advance notice (at least 30 days) through the App or our website. EEA residents will have the right to terminate their account and receive a pro-rata refund for any unused prepaid subscription period.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not guarantee that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of harmful components.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Twikkel B.V. shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the App, including but not limited to loss of virtual currency, virtual items, progress, data, or profits.

For US residents: Our total aggregate liability for all claims arising from or related to the App shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amounts you have paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) USD $10.

For EEA residents: Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for matters where liability cannot be limited or excluded under applicable EU/EEA consumer protection laws. Where Virtual Content does not conform to its description, your legal rights under local consumer law apply.

12. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration (US Residents)

This section applies only to residents of the United States.

Informal resolution first: Before filing any formal claim, you agree to contact us at hello@geoclimber.app and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 60 days.

Binding arbitration: If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, you and Twikkel B.V. agree to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or relating to these Terms or the App through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may bring claims in small claims court if eligible.

No class actions: You and Twikkel B.V. agree that disputes will be resolved on an individual basis only. Neither party may bring claims as a plaintiff or class member in any class action, collective action, consolidated action, or representative proceeding.

Opt-out: You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to hello@geoclimber.app within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. If you opt out, you and Twikkel B.V. retain the right to resolve disputes in court.

13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

For US residents: These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration agreement in Section 12. For any claims not subject to arbitration, the courts located in California shall have exclusive jurisdiction.

For all other users: These Terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts in the Netherlands. If you are an EEA resident, nothing in these Terms affects your rights under mandatory local consumer protection laws.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting updated Terms in the App or on our website with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you should stop using the App.
