Terms & Conditions

GAME NIGHT MASTERS TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your purchase, download, installation, access to, and use of digital games, game show software, downloadable content, and related products offered by Game Night Masters ("Game Night Masters," "we," "us," or "our").

By purchasing, downloading, installing, activating, or using any Game Night Masters product, you agree to these Terms.

1. ABOUT GAME NIGHT MASTERS

Game Night Masters creates and distributes downloadable game show games and related digital entertainment products designed for use at parties, events, corporate functions, schools, churches, entertainment programs, and other group activities.

Our games may include downloadable Windows applications, game files, question packs, templates, graphics, audio, updates, and other associated digital content.

2. DIGITAL PRODUCTS

Unless otherwise stated on the applicable product page, Game Night Masters products are digital products delivered electronically.

No physical product will be shipped unless a product is specifically identified as including physical goods.

Customers are responsible for reviewing the product description, system requirements, compatibility information, and other requirements before purchasing.

3. SOFTWARE LICENSE

When you purchase a Game Night Masters game, you are purchasing a license to use the software, not ownership of the software itself or its underlying intellectual property.

Unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, each purchase grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the purchased game on one device at a time.

The license may be used by an individual or business to operate the game for lawful purposes including:

personal parties and gatherings;
corporate events;
schools and educational events;
churches and community organizations;
private events;
professional game hosting;
paid events; and
other entertainment events.

Commercial event use is permitted. Purchasing a Game Night Masters game does not, however, grant the purchaser the right to resell, redistribute, sublicense, copy, publish, or otherwise commercially distribute the software itself.

4. SINGLE DEVICE LICENSE

Unless a product specifically states otherwise, each Game Night Masters software license is intended for use on one device.

A license key may be associated with the device on which the software is activated.

You may not use one license key to activate the software simultaneously on multiple computers.

If you require the game on multiple computers, additional licenses may be required.

We understand that computers may occasionally be replaced, repaired, upgraded, lost, or damaged. Game Night Masters may, at its discretion, reset or transfer a legitimate license to another device upon request.

We may require reasonable information to verify the original purchase before resetting or transferring a license.

5. LICENSE KEYS AND ACTIVATION

Certain Game Night Masters products may require a license key, online activation, device verification, account authentication, or another method of validating a legitimate purchase.

You are responsible for protecting your license key and account information.

License keys may not be sold, shared, published, transferred, rented, or distributed to another person or organization without our written permission.

We reserve the right to deactivate license keys that we reasonably determine have been:

illegally distributed;
shared between unauthorized users;
resold without authorization;
fraudulently obtained;
used to circumvent licensing restrictions; or
otherwise used in violation of these Terms.

6. PROHIBITED USE

You may not:

copy or redistribute our games;
upload our games to file-sharing websites or services;
sell or give copies of our software to another person;
share license keys with unauthorized users;
sell access to the software itself;
remove copyright, trademark, licensing, or ownership notices;
bypass or attempt to bypass activation or licensing systems;
reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or modify the software except where applicable law expressly permits such activity;
extract our assets for use in another product;
reproduce substantial portions of our question databases or other content for redistribution;
claim Game Night Masters software, artwork, game formats, graphics, audio, or other proprietary materials as your own; or
use our products for unlawful purposes.

You may charge customers to host or operate events using your legitimately licensed copy of the game.

For example, a DJ, entertainer, event company, trivia host, school, church, or corporate facilitator may purchase a game and use it as part of events they operate.

That permission does not include selling or distributing copies of the actual Game Night Masters software.

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Game Night Masters and its licensors retain all applicable intellectual property rights in our software and original content.

This may include, where applicable, software code, game mechanics and implementations to the extent legally protectable, artwork, interface designs, animations, graphics, logos, branding, sound effects, original questions, written content, documentation, videos, and other materials.

Purchasing a product does not transfer these intellectual property rights to you.

"Game Night Masters" and associated branding may not be used in a manner that falsely suggests that another product, company, event, or service is owned, operated, sponsored, or officially endorsed by Game Night Masters.

8. USER-CREATED CONTENT AND CUSTOM QUESTIONS

Some games may allow customers to import or create their own questions, images, audio, videos, CSV files, worksheets, or other content.

You are responsible for any content you import into the software.

You represent that you have the necessary rights or permissions to use that content.

Game Night Masters is not responsible for copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, licensing, or other claims arising from content supplied or imported by a user.

9. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT

Certain games may allow customers to use or display third-party content.

The ability of the software to display or import content does not mean Game Night Masters grants you permission to use that content.

You are responsible for obtaining any licenses or permissions required for third-party music, photographs, videos, trademarks, characters, logos, questions, or other protected material you choose to add to or use with the software.

10. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Our games may have specific operating system, hardware, display, internet, or software requirements.

It is the customer's responsibility to review the listed system requirements before purchasing.

Unless otherwise stated, our downloadable desktop games are designed for the operating systems identified on their respective product pages.

We do not guarantee compatibility with operating systems or devices that are not specifically identified as supported.

11. SOFTWARE UPDATES

We may occasionally provide updates, bug fixes, improvements, or modifications to our software.

We may also make reasonable changes necessary to maintain compatibility, security, licensing systems, or functionality.

We do not guarantee that every product will receive updates indefinitely.

Future major versions, expansions, additional games, or premium content may be sold separately.

12. PRICING AND PAYMENT

Prices are displayed on our website at the time of purchase.

Applicable taxes may be added during checkout.

We reserve the right to change prices, promotions, discounts, bundles, and product offerings at any time.

A later price reduction or promotion does not automatically entitle a previous purchaser to a refund of the difference.

If an obvious pricing error occurs, we reserve the right to cancel the affected transaction and refund the amount paid.

13. DIGITAL DELIVERY

Digital products will normally be made available electronically following successful payment.

Delivery may occur through a download page, customer account, email, license key, third-party delivery platform, or other electronic method.

Customers are responsible for providing accurate contact information during checkout.

14. REFUNDS

Because Game Night Masters products are digital products that can be downloaded and accessed immediately, purchases are generally considered final once the digital product has been delivered, downloaded, or activated.

However, we understand that circumstances vary.

Refund requests will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

A refund may be considered where, for example:

a legitimate technical problem prevents the software from functioning as advertised;
the customer was charged more than once for the same purchase;
the wrong product was delivered;
the purchased product was materially misrepresented; or
another circumstance exists that we determine reasonably warrants a refund.

Before approving a refund for a technical problem, we may ask the customer to allow us a reasonable opportunity to troubleshoot or correct the problem.

A change of mind, failure to review system requirements, or deciding that a game is no longer needed does not automatically qualify for a refund.

Nothing in this section limits any refund, cancellation, or other consumer right that cannot legally be excluded under applicable law.

15. CHARGEBACKS AND PAYMENT DISPUTES

If you experience a problem with a purchase, please contact Game Night Masters before initiating a payment dispute so we have an opportunity to resolve the issue.

Fraudulent chargebacks or payment disputes concerning legitimately delivered products may result in suspension or termination of the associated license.

Nothing in this section prevents a customer from exercising any lawful rights available through their payment provider or applicable consumer protection laws.

16. AVAILABILITY AND ONLINE SERVICES

Some features may require internet access for activation, license verification, updates, multiplayer functionality, companion-device functionality, or other online services.

We cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability of internet-dependent services.

Temporary interruptions may occur because of maintenance, third-party hosting services, network failures, security incidents, updates, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

17. EVENTS AND GAME RESULTS

Game Night Masters provides entertainment software.

We do not guarantee any particular event outcome, participant response, competition result, audience experience, business result, educational outcome, or financial result from using our products.

The purchaser or event host remains responsible for operating the game appropriately for their participants and environment.

18. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Game Night Masters will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or similar damages arising from the use of or inability to use our products.

This may include loss of profits, loss of business, event interruption, loss of data, or other indirect losses.

Where liability cannot legally be excluded, our liability will be limited only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability or consumer rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

19. TERMINATION OF LICENSE

We may suspend or terminate a software license where we reasonably determine that the license has been used in material violation of these Terms, including piracy, unauthorized redistribution, fraudulent acquisition, or deliberate circumvention of our licensing system.

Termination does not give Game Night Masters ownership of user-created content imported into the software.

20. WEBSITE USE

You may use the Game Night Masters website for lawful purposes.

You may not attempt to interfere with the website, gain unauthorized access to our systems, scrape or reproduce substantial portions of the website for unauthorized commercial purposes, distribute malware, or otherwise misuse the website.

21. PRIVACY

Personal information collected through our website, checkout process, licensing system, or customer support services will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable privacy laws.

Our Privacy Policy should be read together with these Terms.

22. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

Our website, checkout process, software, or delivery systems may use third-party providers for services such as payment processing, ecommerce, hosting, analytics, software distribution, or license management.

Those third-party services may be governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

Game Night Masters is not responsible for third-party services beyond the extent required by applicable law.

23. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may update these Terms periodically to reflect changes to our products, technology, business practices, or legal requirements.

The updated Terms will be posted on our website with a revised "Last Updated" date.

Changes will not retroactively remove rights that have already accrued under applicable law.

24. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms and any dispute relating to them will be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without limiting any mandatory consumer protections that may apply based on a customer's jurisdiction.

25. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.

26. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, applicable product descriptions, and any additional terms expressly presented at the time of purchase, constitute the agreement between you and Game Night Masters concerning your purchase and use of our products.
