Terms of Use
By accessing, browsing, installing or otherwise using the Service, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old (or the higher minimum legal age applicable in the jurisdiction in which you are located), and that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, you must not access or use the Service.
We may change, modify, add to or remove parts of these Terms of Use at any time by publishing the amended version on the Service. Your continued use of the Service after publication constitutes acceptance of the amended terms. If at any time you do not agree with the then-current version, your licence to use the Service terminates immediately and you must stop using it.
1. About Rhinoplay
1.1 We licence our games to gaming operators, aggregators and platform providers (“Operators”), who make that content available to their own customers under their own licences, terms and regulatory permissions.
1.2 We do not operate a gambling service. We do not accept wagers, we do not hold player accounts or funds, and we do not offer real-money gaming to end users. Any game accessible on the Website is provided for demonstration and informational purposes only, uses no real money, and confers no monetary value, prize, credit or entitlement of any kind. Balances, credits or points displayed in demonstration play are simulated, are not redeemable, and cannot be transferred, exchanged or withdrawn.
1.3 Where you play a Rhinoplay game in real-money mode, you do so through an Operator. Your contractual relationship in respect of that gameplay - including registration, identity verification, deposits, wagers, winnings, withdrawals, bonuses, dispute resolution and responsible gambling controls - is with that Operator and is governed by the Operator’s terms. Rhinoplay is not a party to it and is not responsible for it. Complaints relating to real-money play must be addressed to the Operator, and thereafter to the Operator’s regulator or approved dispute resolution body.
1.4 Nothing on the Service constitutes an offer, invitation or solicitation to gamble in any jurisdiction where doing so is unlawful.
2. Eligibility and restricted jurisdictions
2.1 The Service is intended solely for persons aged 18 or over, or such higher age as applies in your jurisdiction. You must not access the Service if you do not meet this requirement. You are responsible for preventing access by minors through your devices and accept responsibility for any unauthorised use by minors.
2.2 You must not access the Service if you have previously been excluded or banned by Rhinoplay.
2.3 You are solely responsible for ensuring that your access to and use of the Service is lawful in the jurisdiction in which you are located. Access is void where prohibited by local law. We may restrict or block access from particular jurisdictions at our discretion.
2.4 You represent that you are not subject to, and are not owned or controlled by a person subject to, any applicable sanctions regime, including sanctions administered by the European Union, the United Nations, the United Kingdom or the United States. You must not use the Service in breach of applicable sanctions or export control laws.
3. Licence
3.1 Subject to your ongoing compliance with these Terms of Use, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable licence to access and use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial and informational purposes, or where you are a representative of an Operator or prospective business partner for the purpose of evaluating or administering our licensed content under a separate written agreement.
You agree not to use the Service for any other purpose. In case of any conflict between these Terms of Use and a signed commercial agreement between Rhinoplay and an Operator, the signed agreement prevails as between Rhinoplay and that Operator.
3.2 You must not:
• use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in any way that breaches these Terms of Use or applicable law;
• use the Service to advertise, solicit or transmit commercial communications, chain messages, junk mail or spam;
• combine the Service, or any part of it (including any image, graphic, title, sound or code), with any other game, product, service or software without our prior written consent;
• damage, disable, overburden or impair the Service, or interfere with any other party’s use of it;
• use exploits, automation software, bots, scrapers, crawlers, hacks, mods or any unauthorised third-party software designed to modify or interfere with the Service;
• disrupt or overburden, or assist in disrupting or overburdening, any server or network used to provide or support the Service;
• carry out, assist or participate in any attack against the Service, including the distribution of viruses or malicious code and denial-of-service attacks;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, its servers, or any computer, network or database connected to it, by any means other than the interface we provide;
• obtain or attempt to obtain materials or information by any means not intentionally made available through the Service;
• reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decrypt or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, algorithms, mathematics or return-to-player models of any software or content used in the Service, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
• circumvent, disable or interfere with any security, authentication, geolocation or age-verification feature;
• post or transmit material that is abusive, threatening, obscene, defamatory, or racially, sexually, religiously or otherwise objectionable;
• harass, abuse or harm, or advocate or incite the harassment, abuse or harm of, any person or group, including Rhinoplay personnel and support staff;
• make available through the Service any material infringing any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, right of privacy or publicity, or other right of any person, or impersonate any person, including any Rhinoplay employee.
3.3 We determine, at our discretion, what conduct falls outside the intent or spirit of these Terms of Use, and may take action accordingly, including prohibiting your use of the Service in whole or in part.
3.4 Where we become aware of a breach that constitutes a criminal offence, we may report it to the competent law enforcement authorities and co-operate with them, including by disclosing your identity. In such cases your right to use the Service ceases immediately.
4. Partner portal and credentials
4.1 Access to any partner portal, back-office, demonstration environment, API or documentation we make available is granted only to authorised representatives of Operators and business partners, and is subject to any additional terms notified to you.
4.2 You are responsible for keeping your credentials confidential, for all activity carried out under your credentials, and for notifying us immediately at [email protected] of any suspected unauthorised access. You must not share, sell or transfer credentials.
4.3 Any non-public information, documentation, specifications, mathematics, roadmaps or commercial terms disclosed to you through the Service are confidential and must not be disclosed to third parties or used for any purpose other than the purpose for which they were provided.
5. Suspension and termination
5.1 Without limiting any other remedy, we may limit, suspend, terminate, modify or delete accounts or access to the Service, in whole or in part, with or without notice, if you fail (or we reasonably suspect that you fail) to comply with these Terms of Use, or in the case of any actual or suspected unlawful or improper use of the Service.
5.2 We may also limit, suspend or terminate the Service, prohibit access to our games, sites, content and tools, remove hosted content and take technical and legal steps to prevent access where we believe that a user is creating risk or potential legal liability, infringing third-party intellectual property rights, or acting inconsistently with the letter or spirit of our terms and policies.
5.3 We may cease offering or supporting the Service, or any particular game or part of the Service, at any time, at which point your licence terminates automatically. We are not required to provide any refund, benefit or other compensation in connection with a discontinued Service.
5.4 Clauses which by their nature are intended to survive termination - including those on ownership, confidentiality, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and governing law - survive.
6. Ownership and intellectual property
6.1 All rights, title and interest in and to the Service - including website design, text, graphics, photographs, games, titles, computer code, themes, objects, characters, character names, stories, dialogue, catchphrases, concepts, artwork, animations, sounds, musical compositions, audio-visual effects, methods of operation, game mathematics, documentation, underlying source code, software and other proprietary rights - are owned by or licensed to Rhinoplay. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.
6.2 You may not reproduce the Service or any part of it in any form without our express written consent. Where material may be downloaded or printed, it may be downloaded to a single device and printed solely for your own personal, non-commercial use.
6.3 Use of the Service grants you no interest in any intellectual property rights owned by us or by any third party. No right is granted to use or reproduce any trade name, trademark or logo except as specifically permitted in writing by the owner of those rights.
6.4 Any breach of this section of which we become aware will be notified within a reasonable time to the relevant rights owner for appropriate enforcement action.
7. User content
7.1 Definition. “User Content” means any communication, image, sound, material, data or information that you upload or transmit through the Service, including any chat or comment text.
7.2 Your warranties. By submitting User Content you represent and warrant that it is (a) accurate and not confidential; (b) not in breach of any law, contractual restriction or third-party right, and that you have the permission of any third party whose personal data or intellectual property is included; (c) free of viruses, adware, spyware, worms and other malicious code; and (d) that any personal data contained in it will be processed by us in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
7.3 Screening. We do not and cannot pre-screen or monitor all User Content, and we assume no responsibility for the conduct of any user submitting it. Your use of the Service is at your own risk, and you may be exposed to content that is offensive or not in line with your expectations. We have the right, but not the obligation, at our sole discretion, to review, monitor, edit, refuse to post, disable access to or remove any User Content, at any time, with or without notice.
7.4 Monitoring and recording. Our representatives or systems may monitor and record your interaction with the Service, including communications, for security, quality and compliance purposes. By accepting these Terms of Use you consent to such monitoring and recording, and acknowledge that you have no expectation of privacy in the transmission of User Content.
7.5 Licence you grant. You grant Rhinoplay an irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, fully paid-up, royalty-free, worldwide licence (including the right to sublicense and assign) to copy, reproduce, adapt, modify, create derivative works from, publish, distribute, license, transmit, publicly display and perform, store and otherwise use your User Content and derivative works of it in connection with the provision, marketing and promotion of the Service. Except where prohibited by law, you waive any moral rights and rights of attribution in your User Content. We claim no ownership of your User Content, and nothing here restricts your own rights to use it. We have no obligation to monitor or enforce your intellectual property rights in your User Content.
7.6 Ideas and information. If the Service includes forums, blogs or comment features, we cannot guarantee that other users will not use ideas or information you share. Do not post anything you wish to keep confidential. We have no obligation to evaluate, use or compensate you for any idea or information you submit.
7.7 User interactions. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users and third parties. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to become involved in any dispute. You will co-operate fully with us in investigating any suspected unlawful, fraudulent or improper activity. If you have a dispute with another user, you release us, our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries and employees from all claims, demands and damages of every kind arising out of or connected with that dispute.
8. Updates to the Service
The Service is evolving. We may require you to accept updates to the Service and to our games, and may update the Service with or without notifying you. You may need to update third-party software from time to time in order to access the Service.
9. Responsible gaming
We support responsible gaming. Gambling should be treated as entertainment and never as a source of income. Where you play through an Operator, that Operator is required to provide responsible gaming tools such as deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion; you should use them if gambling stops being enjoyable. If you are concerned about your gambling or someone else’s, seek help from a qualified support organisation in your jurisdiction and through the responsible gaming pages of your Operator.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
Without limiting our liability under section 11, the Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and those arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
We do not warrant that you will be able to access or use the Service at the time or location of your choosing; that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free; that defects will be corrected; or that the Service is free of viruses or other harmful components. Any content on the Website relating to our games, features or performance is provided for general information only and does not constitute a warranty or a commitment.
11. Limitation of liability and indemnity
11.1 We shall not be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive or similar damages, including loss of revenue, lost profits, lost data or business interruption, or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms of Use or the Service, whether based in contract, tort or any other legal theory, and whether or not we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
11.2 Our aggregate liability to you shall not exceed the amount you have paid to us under these Terms of Use in the six months immediately preceding the date on which you first assert a claim. If you have paid us nothing during that period, your sole remedy - and our exclusive liability - is to stop using the Service.
11.3 Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for certain damages, so some of the above may not apply to you. To the extent we may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim a warranty or limit our liability as set out here, the scope of that warranty and the extent of our liability shall be the minimum permitted under that law. In particular, nothing in these Terms of Use affects the statutory rights of a consumer, or excludes or restricts liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
11.4 You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Rhinoplay, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents against any claim, demand, damages or other loss, including reasonable legal fees, asserted by a third party and resulting from or arising out of your use of the Service or your breach of these Terms of Use. This does not apply where the infringement is not attributable to your intentional or negligent conduct.
12. Links to third-party sites
The Website may contain links to other websites (“Linked Sites”), including those of Operators. Linked Sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for their contents, for any link contained in them, for any change or update to them, or for any transmission received from them. Links are provided for convenience only, and their inclusion does not imply endorsement or any association with their operators. You acknowledge that we cannot be held liable for the content of Linked Sites or for any consequence of accessing them, and that such access is at your sole option, discretion and risk.
13. Privacy
Our collection and use of personal data in connection with the Service is described in our Privacy Policy. Where you play through an Operator, the Operator is the controller of your player data and its own privacy policy applies.
14. Governing law and jurisdiction
14.1 These Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, our Privacy Policy or the Service (including non-contractual disputes or claims), are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Cyprus, without regard to conflict of law rules.
14.2 The courts of the Republic of Cyprus shall have exclusive jurisdiction, save that where you are a consumer resident in the European Union, you retain the benefit of any mandatory protections and any right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence.
14.3 If a dispute arises, we strongly encourage you to contact us first at [email protected] so that we can try to resolve it directly.
15. General provisions
15.1 Severability. If any provision of these Terms of Use or of our Privacy Policy is found to be illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be ineffective in that jurisdiction only to the extent of the invalidity or unenforceability, without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder, which continues in full force and effect.
15.2 Assignment. We may assign or delegate these Terms of Use and/or our Privacy Policy, in whole or in part, to any person or entity at any time, with or without your consent. You may not assign or delegate any right or obligation without our prior written consent, and any unauthorised assignment is ineffective.
15.3 Entire agreement. These Terms of Use, together with any supplemental policies and documents expressly incorporated by reference (including the Privacy Policy), constitute the entire understanding between you and us and supersede all prior understandings relating to their subject matter, whether electronic, oral or written, or established by custom, practice or precedent.
15.4 No waiver. Our failure to require or enforce strict performance of any provision, or to exercise any right, is not a waiver of our right to assert or rely on that provision or right on that or any other occasion. An express waiver of any provision, condition or requirement does not waive any future obligation to comply with it. Except as expressly set out here, no representation, statement, consent, waiver or other act or omission by us constitutes a modification of these Terms of Use or is legally binding unless recorded in writing and signed by a duly authorised officer of Rhinoplay.
15.5 Notices. We may notify you by posting on www.rhinoplay.com or by any other means using the contact details you have provided. All notices you are required to give under these Terms of Use or our Privacy Policy must be in writing and addressed to [email protected]. Notices given without complying with this section have no legal effect.
15.6 Equitable remedies. You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made to Rhinoplay under these Terms of Use are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which would irreparably harm us and could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages alone, and that we are therefore entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without any obligation to post bond or surety, or to prove damages) in the event of any breach or anticipated breach by you. You waive, to the extent permitted by law, any right to seek injunctive relief that would enjoin or restrain the operation of the Service or the exploitation of any advertising or other material issued in connection with it, and agree to limit your claims to claims for monetary damages, subject to section 11.
15.7 Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, flood, accident, epidemic, strike, cyber-attack, failure of telecommunications or internet infrastructure, or shortages of transport, fuel, energy, labour or materials.
15.8 Language. These Terms of Use are drafted in English. Where we provide a translation, the English version prevails in the event of any inconsistency.
