Legal
Terms of Service
Template notice. These Terms of Service are a general, industry-standard template provided for convenience. They are not legal advice. Please review and adapt them with qualified legal counsel — including the specific requirements of each app store you publish to — before relying on them.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Play Stream Studio ("Play Stream Studio", "we", "us" or "our") and govern your access to and use of our streaming, gaming and media applications for smart TVs, phones, tablets and the web, and this website (together, the "Services"). Please read them carefully. By downloading, accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1. Eligibility & accounts
You must be the age of majority in your place of residence, or be old enough to form a binding contract and have the consent of a parent or legal guardian, to use the Services. Some Apps or features have additional age requirements. If you create an account, you agree to provide accurate information, to keep your credentials confidential, and you are responsible for activity under your account.
2. Licence to use our apps
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to download and use our Apps on devices you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use. We and our licensors retain all rights not expressly granted. This is a licence, not a sale; you receive no ownership rights in the Apps or their content.
3. Acceptable use
You agree not to, and not to permit anyone else to:
- copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile or attempt to extract source code, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
- rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, sublicense or commercially exploit the Services;
- circumvent, disable or interfere with security, digital rights management, geographic or usage restrictions, or rate limits;
- access the Services through automated means (bots, scrapers) except as expressly permitted;
- upload or transmit malware, or use the Services to infringe intellectual property or other rights, or to post unlawful, harmful or abusive content; or
- use the Services in violation of any applicable law or the rules of the platform you are using.
4. Subscriptions, purchases & billing
Some Apps offer paid subscriptions and in-app purchases. Unless stated otherwise, all purchases are processed by the app store or platform from which you downloaded the App (such as the Apple App Store, Google Play, Roku or Amazon), and are also subject to that store's terms.
- Auto-renewal. Subscriptions automatically renew at the then-current price for the same period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period (or as otherwise specified by the store).
- Managing & cancelling. You can manage or cancel a subscription in your app-store account settings. Deleting an App does not cancel a subscription.
- Free trials. If a free trial is offered, unused portions are forfeited when you purchase a subscription, where permitted.
- Price changes. We may change prices and plan features prospectively; we will give notice where required, and changes do not affect the period already paid for.
- Refunds. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable and refunds are handled under the policies of the app store that processed your purchase.
5. App stores & third-party platforms
Your use of an App is also subject to the terms of the platform you obtained it from. The following applies where you download an App from the Apple App Store, and similar principles apply to Google Play, Roku and Amazon:
- these Terms are between you and Play Stream Studio only, and not with Apple; Apple is not responsible for the App or its content;
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App;
- in the event the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and, where applicable, Apple may refund the purchase price; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App;
- Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product-liability, regulatory or intellectual-property claims; and
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as "terrorist-supporting", and that you are not on any U.S. Government restricted-parties list.
6. Intellectual property
The Services, including all software, content, design, text, graphics, logos, the "Play Stream Studio" name and the Pixel Play mark, and all related intellectual property, are owned by Play Stream Studio or its licensors and are protected by law. Except for the limited licence in section 2, nothing in these Terms transfers any rights to you.
7. Feedback & user content
If you submit feedback, ideas or suggestions, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use them without restriction or compensation. If an App lets you submit content (such as reviews or lists), you retain ownership of your content and grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, use and display it for the purpose of operating and promoting the Services. You are responsible for the content you submit and represent that you have the rights to do so.
8. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that content will always be available in your region.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Play Stream Studio and its suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, data, goodwill or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of (or inability to use) the Services. Our total liability for all claims relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us for the Services in the 12 months before the claim, or US$50. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Play Stream Studio and its officers, employees and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your misuse of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
11. Termination
You may stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the Services or other users. On termination, the licence in section 2 ends and you must stop using the Apps; sections that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnification and governing law) will survive.
12. Changes to the apps & these terms
We may add, change or discontinue features of the Services at any time. We may also update these Terms; when we make material changes we will update the "Last updated" date and provide reasonable notice (for example, in-app or by email). Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
13. Governing law & disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Play Stream Studio is established, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules, and you and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located there, except where applicable consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts. (Insert your governing-law jurisdiction, venue, and any arbitration or class-action-waiver provisions appropriate for your business and confirmed with counsel.)
14. General
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any store terms, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
