These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your download, purchase, access to, and use of the Wunder Runes mobile application (the “App”). In these Terms, “we,” “us,” and “our” mean Ancient Alphabets Pty Ltd, the developer and publisher identified above.
By downloading, purchasing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
Nothing in these Terms limits any consumer rights that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded in your country or region.
1. About Wunder Runes
Wunder Runes is an educational game designed to help users learn historical runic alphabets, words, and related information. The App is provided for general educational and entertainment purposes. It is not academic, archaeological, linguistic, religious, legal, or professional advice, and we do not guarantee that every interpretation or historical detail is complete or universally accepted.
Version 1 uses local device profiles. These profiles are not online accounts and do not provide cross-device synchronisation, cloud backup, or account recovery.
2. Eligibility and children
You must be legally capable of agreeing to these Terms. If you are below the age at which you may enter a binding agreement in your location, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms for you and supervise your use of the App.
Parents and guardians are responsible for purchases and for the use of the App by children under their supervision. Local profile names should not contain a child’s full legal name or other identifying information.
3. Licence to use the App
Subject to these Terms and any applicable Google Play terms, we grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use the App on compatible devices that you own or control.
This licence is for personal, non-commercial use. It does not transfer ownership of the App, its content, artwork, software, trademarks, or other intellectual property to you.
4. Free access period
The App includes up to 30 cumulative minutes of free active gameplay on a device. This is an App access allowance, not a Google Play subscription trial.
- Trial time is counted only during active gameplay where technically practicable.
- The allowance does not automatically convert into a paid subscription.
- You will not be charged merely because the 30 minutes expire.
- After the allowance is used, paid access may be required for further gameplay, while any specifically identified free features may remain available.
- Clearing App data, changing devices, reinstalling, operating-system behaviour, technical faults, or anti-abuse measures may affect locally stored trial information.
We may reasonably modify or discontinue the free access allowance for future users or future App versions, but will not use such a change to create an undisclosed charge.
5. Monthly subscription
The App may offer a monthly auto-renewing subscription through Google Play.
- The intended United States launch price is US$1.99 per month. Your actual local price, currency, tax treatment, and billing terms are the values displayed and confirmed in the Google Play purchase screen.
- Payment is charged to your Google Play account when you confirm the purchase.
- The subscription renews automatically for successive monthly billing periods unless you cancel it before renewal.
- An active subscription provides continued access to the paid App features included in the plan.
- Cancelling stops future renewal. Unless Google Play or applicable law provides otherwise, you normally retain access until the end of the billing period already paid for.
- Deleting or uninstalling the App does not cancel a subscription.
You can manage or cancel the subscription through the App’s Manage Access screen or directly in the Google Play Subscription Centre.
6. Lifetime purchase
The App may offer a one-time, non-consumable lifetime purchase through Google Play. The intended United States launch price is US$8.99; the price and currency displayed in Google Play when you confirm the purchase control.
“Lifetime access” means a non-expiring licence for the purchaser to use the paid features of the App for as long as Wunder Runes is made available and remains technically supported on compatible devices. It refers to the lifetime of the App as an available product, not necessarily the purchaser’s lifetime. It does not guarantee that the App, Google Play, particular devices, operating systems, or online services will remain available indefinitely.
The lifetime purchase is personal, non-transferable, and tied to the Google Play account used to make the purchase, subject to Google’s rules.
7. Price changes
We may change prices for future purchases for valid commercial reasons, including changes in operating costs, taxes, exchange rates, features, content, or platform fees.
A change to the price of an existing subscription will be handled through Google Play and with any advance notice or consent required by Google Play or applicable law. You may cancel before a price change takes effect. A later price change does not create an additional charge for a completed lifetime purchase.
8. Billing, restoration, cancellation, and refunds
Google Play processes payments and may apply its own billing, cancellation, refund, and purchase restoration rules. We do not receive your complete payment-card or bank-account information.
Access is granted only after Google Play reports a completed purchase. A pending transaction does not unlock paid access until payment is confirmed. Purchase restoration requires use of the Google Play account that owns the purchase and may require an internet connection.
Refund requests may be handled by Google Play or by us where appropriate. Refund eligibility is subject to Google Play’s policies and applicable consumer law. Nothing in these Terms removes a legal right to a refund, repair, replacement, cancellation, or other remedy.
9. Acceptable use
You must not:
- Copy, sell, sublicense, redistribute, or commercially exploit the App or its content except as expressly permitted by law;
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to extract source code except where the law expressly permits it;
- Circumvent, manipulate, or interfere with the free-access counter, purchase verification, entitlement controls, or other security features;
- Use modified clients, automation, or other means to obtain paid access without payment;
- Introduce malware, disrupt the App, overload related services, or attempt unauthorised access;
- Use the App or its sharing features unlawfully or to infringe another person’s rights; or
- Remove or alter copyright, trademark, attribution, or proprietary notices.
10. Local profiles, progress, and device data
Local profiles, progress, scores, saved sessions, trial usage, and some purchase-status information are stored on the device. You are responsible for maintaining access to your device and Google Play account. Uninstalling the App, clearing its storage, device failure, or changing devices may cause local information to be lost.
We do not promise recovery, backup, or transfer of local information. Purchase restoration may restore paid access but does not necessarily restore profiles, progress, or scores.
11. User-directed sharing
The App may allow you to create and share a score card or similar content through your device’s sharing interface. You choose the recipient and service. You are responsible for what you share and must not use this feature to violate the law or another person’s privacy or intellectual-property rights.
12. Intellectual property
The App, software, design, original text, branding, graphics, audiovisual material, and other content are owned by or licensed to the developer and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Third-party materials remain the property of their respective owners and may be subject to separate licence terms.
“Wunder Runes” and associated branding may not be used in a way that suggests sponsorship, endorsement, or affiliation without prior written permission.
13. Updates, compatibility, and availability
We may release updates that correct defects, improve security, change compatibility, add or remove features, or modify content. Some updates may be required for continued use or purchase verification.
We do not guarantee compatibility with every device or operating-system version. The App or particular features may occasionally be unavailable because of maintenance, platform changes, network failure, security concerns, legal requirements, or circumstances outside our reasonable control.
If we permanently discontinue paid functionality, we will comply with applicable consumer law and any applicable Google Play obligations.
14. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the App at any time. You remain responsible for separately cancelling an active subscription through Google Play.
We may suspend or terminate access where reasonably necessary because of fraud, unauthorised payment, serious or repeated breach of these Terms, security risk, legal requirement, or misuse of the App. Where appropriate and legally required, we will provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to remedy the issue.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination—including intellectual property, disclaimers, liability provisions, and dispute terms—will continue to apply.
15. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation, error-free content, permanent availability, or that the App will meet every user’s requirements.
These disclaimers do not exclude warranties, guarantees, or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded, including mandatory consumer protections.
16. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or purely economic losses arising from use of or inability to use the App, including loss of local progress or scores, where such losses were not reasonably foreseeable.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, wilful misconduct, or death or personal injury caused by negligence where applicable.
17. Third-party services
The App relies on Google Play for distribution, billing, purchase restoration, and subscription management. Your use of Google Play is also governed by Google’s applicable terms and policies. Third-party services are responsible for their own operation and data practices.
18. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect changes to the App, purchases, platform requirements, security, or law. We will update the effective date and provide notice of material changes through the App, store listing, or another reasonable method where required.
Changes will apply prospectively unless applicable law permits otherwise. If you do not accept a material change, you may stop using the App and cancel any active subscription before its next renewal.
19. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except that mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence continue to apply.
Before starting formal proceedings, please contact us and allow a reasonable opportunity to resolve the concern informally. This section does not prevent either party from using a small-claims court, regulator, consumer-protection body, or other remedy available under applicable law.
20. General terms
If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our consent, except where applicable law provides otherwise. We may transfer our rights and obligations as part of a legitimate sale, reorganisation, or transfer of the App, subject to applicable law.
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, the purchase information shown in Google Play, and any mandatory consumer terms form the agreement concerning your use of the App.
