Terms of Use

The Services

little dill is a free virtual pet game with mini-games and an online multiplayer arena. There are no accounts and no purchases. Some features, including the arena, need an internet connection.

Who May Play

Anyone may play. If you are under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian should review these Terms with you and agrees to them on your behalf.

Arena Nicknames and Conduct

Other players see your nickname. Keep it friendly. You agree not to:

• Use nicknames that are hateful, sexual, threatening, or that impersonate someone else
• Cheat, use bots or automation, or exploit bugs to gain an advantage
• Flood the servers, get around connection or room limits, or interfere with other players
• Reverse engineer the Services to harm them or other players

We may rename, disconnect, or limit any player, and remove or reset rooms, to keep the arena fair and safe.

Coins, Outfits, and Scores

Coins, outfits, scores, and other in-game items have no monetary value. They cannot be bought, sold, or exchanged for anything outside the game. We may change how they are earned or reset them, for example to fix a bug.

Your Pickle and Saves

Your progress is stored on your device. We cannot recover it if you clear your browser data, delete the app, or lose your device. Keep a .dill backup if your pickle matters to you.

Beta Versions

Test versions of the app distributed through TestFlight may be incomplete or unstable and may change or stop working. Apple's TestFlight terms also apply to them.

License and Ownership

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Services for non-commercial entertainment. The game, artwork, characters, music, and code are owned by us or our licensors. These Terms do not transfer any ownership to you.

Apple App Store Terms

If you got the app from Apple's App Store or TestFlight:

• These Terms are between you and us only. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
• Your license is limited to using the app on Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
• Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
• If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any. To the extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
• Apple is not responsible for addressing claims about the app, including product liability claims, claims that it fails to meet legal or regulatory requirements, and consumer protection or privacy claims.
• Apple is not responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, or discharge of any third-party claim that the app infringes intellectual property rights.
• You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• You must also follow applicable third-party terms, such as your wireless data service agreement, when using the app.
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

Third-Party Services

The Services run on and link to services we do not control, including Cloudflare, Apple, and Game Center. Their terms and policies govern your use of them.

Availability and Changes

We may change, pause, or end any part of the Services at any time, including arena rooms and features. We try to keep things running, but we do not promise the Services will always be available or free of errors.

Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the fullest extent the law allows.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data or progress. Our total liability for any claim about the Services is limited to fifty U.S. dollars. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.

Ending Use

You may stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or end your access to the arena if you break these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive will survive.

Governing Law

New York law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Courts located in Westchester County, New York, have jurisdiction over disputes, except where a mandatory consumer-protection law of your residence gives you the right to bring a claim where you live.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. The "Last updated" date shows the current version. If a change is material, we will also say so on this website. Continuing to use the Services after an update means you accept it.
