Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Nuddle mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Nuddle website (together, "Nuddle"), provided by SCHMUT/WEISS GmbH, Sieveringer Straße 9/13, 1190 Vienna, Austria ("we", "us"). By downloading, installing, or using Nuddle, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use Nuddle.

1. The service

Nuddle is a daily number-puzzle game. It offers a shared Daily Nuddle and several Logic, Speed, and Memory games. Nuddle is free to download and play. No account is required; your progress, streaks, and best scores are stored locally on your device and may be lost if you uninstall the App or reset your device.

2. Licence

We grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use Nuddle for your own private, non-commercial purposes, in accordance with these Terms and the applicable app-store rules.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to: reverse-engineer, decompile, or modify the App except where permitted by mandatory law; tamper with, automate, or manipulate gameplay, scores, or advertising; or use Nuddle in any unlawful way or in breach of these Terms or the app-store rules.

4. Advertising

The free version of Nuddle is financed by advertising delivered through Google AdMob, including banner, interstitial, and rewarded ads. Rewarded ads are optional and are only shown when you actively choose to watch one (for example, to reveal a hint). How advertising data is processed, and how to manage your ad-personalization consent, is described in our Privacy Policy.

5. In-app purchase — "Remove ads forever"

Nuddle offers a single optional in-app purchase, "Remove ads forever":

  • It is a one-time, non-consumable purchase (not a subscription — there is no recurring charge). After purchase, advertising is permanently disabled on devices signed in to the same App Store or Google account.
  • The current price is shown in the App before you confirm and is charged to your Apple App Store or Google Play account. We do not receive or store your payment details.
  • You can transfer the purchase to a new device using "Restore purchases" within the App, provided you use the same store account.
  • Because the digital content is made available immediately, you acknowledge that the statutory right of withdrawal expires once performance begins with your consent (§ 18(1)(11) FAGG). This does not affect your mandatory consumer rights.
  • Billing, cancellations, and refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their terms. We cannot process payments or issue refunds directly; please contact the relevant store. We will, of course, help where the issue is with the App itself.

6. Intellectual property

Nuddle, including its name, logo, design, puzzles, and software, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual-property law. These Terms grant you no rights in our trademarks or content beyond the licence in Section 2.

7. Availability and changes

We may update, change, or discontinue features of Nuddle, and may update these Terms where there is a valid reason (e.g. new features, or legal or technical changes). If a change is material, we will make it apparent in the App or on the Website. Your continued use after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance.

8. Disclaimer and liability

Nuddle is provided "as is". To the extent permitted by law, we exclude implied warranties. We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence and for personal injury. For slight negligence, we are liable only for breach of a material contractual obligation, and limited to the foreseeable, typical damage. This does not limit any mandatory statutory liability (including under the Austrian Product Liability Act) or your mandatory consumer rights.

9. Apple App Store (additional terms)

If you obtained the App from the Apple App Store, the following also applies:

  • These Terms are concluded between you and us only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
  • Your licence to use the App is limited to a non-transferable licence to use it on Apple-branded devices you own or control, as set out in the Apple Media Services Terms and the Usage Rules of the App Store Terms (the "Apple Standard EULA"). Where these Terms are more restrictive, these Terms apply; otherwise the Apple Standard EULA applies.
  • Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support. Any product warranty claims and product-liability or third-party intellectual-property claims relating to the App are handled as set out in the Apple Standard EULA.
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
  • You confirm you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated "terrorist-supporting", and you are not on any U.S. Government restricted-parties list.

10. Google Play (additional terms)

If you obtained the App from Google Play, your use is also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App.

11. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by Austrian law, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of habitual residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts there. The statutory place of jurisdiction applies.
