WorldPlay Terms of Use

Last updated: 15/10/2026  ·  Effective date: 15/10/2026

1. About these terms

WorldPlay ("WorldPlay," "we," "us") is a mobile application published by Bryen Vieira ("the Developer"). These terms set out the rules for using WorldPlay and for buying WorldPlay Premium. By using the app, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use WorldPlay.

The app store you downloaded WorldPlay from (Google Play or the Apple App Store) has its own terms, which also apply to your download and to any purchase you make through it. How we handle your information is explained in our Privacy Policy.

2. Who can use WorldPlay

WorldPlay is intended for players aged 13 and over. If you're under 18, please make sure a parent or guardian is happy for you to use the app and agrees to these terms, especially before making a purchase.

3. Your account

• You can play without signing in. Signing in (for example with Google or Apple) lets you keep your progress across devices, add friends, and buy WorldPlay Premium.
• You're responsible for keeping the account you sign in with secure.
• You can delete your account and its game data at any time from our account deletion page.

4. Display names and friends

Other players can see your display name, for example on the friends leaderboard. Your display name must not be offensive, hateful, sexual, or misleading, and must not impersonate anyone else. WorldPlay filters names for inappropriate words, and we may change or remove a display name that breaks these rules. Friends you add can see your display name and your daily puzzle results.

5. WorldPlay Premium

• What it is: WorldPlay Premium is an optional, one-time purchase. It removes ads and unlocks premium themes. It is not a subscription, and you won't be charged again.
• How long it lasts: Premium is yours for as long as WorldPlay is available ("lifetime" means the lifetime of the app, not of your device).
• Your account: Premium is linked to the account you're signed in with when you buy it, so you can restore it on any device by signing in to the same account and using "Restore purchases" in Settings.
• Payment: Purchases are made and processed through Google Play or the Apple App Store, at the price shown before you confirm. We never see or store your payment details.
• Refunds: Refunds are handled under the refund policies of Google Play or the Apple App Store. This doesn't affect your legal rights as a consumer, including your rights if Premium is faulty or not as described.

6. Ads

The free version of WorldPlay shows ads through Google AdMob. Ads are non-personalized for everyone. WorldPlay Premium removes them.

7. Fair play

When using WorldPlay, please don't:

• cheat, for example by using bots, scripts, or modified versions of the app, or by exploiting bugs to gain an advantage on leaderboards or daily puzzles;
• try to access other players' accounts or data, or interfere with the app or the services it runs on;
• copy, reverse engineer, or resell the app or its content, except where the law allows it.

We may remove results that we reasonably believe were achieved by breaking these rules.

8. Our content

The app, its games, design, and content belong to the Developer or are used under licence. Some parts, such as word lists, definitions, and software libraries, come from third parties under their own licences, which are listed in the app under Settings → Open-source licences. We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use WorldPlay for your own, non-commercial enjoyment.

9. Changes to the app

We may update WorldPlay over time, for example by adding, changing, or removing games, puzzles, words, or features. We may also stop offering WorldPlay in the future. If we do, we'll try to give reasonable notice in the app, and your Premium purchase will end when the app stops being available.

10. Ending your use

You can stop using WorldPlay and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or close an account that seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms.

11. Our responsibility to you

We work to keep WorldPlay running smoothly, but we can't promise it will always be available or free of errors. To the extent the law allows, WorldPlay is provided "as is," and we aren't responsible for losses that weren't foreseeable, or that weren't caused by us breaking these terms.

Nothing in these terms limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud, and nothing in them affects your legal rights as a consumer.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and disputes can be brought in the courts of England and Wales. If you live elsewhere, you also keep the protection of any mandatory consumer laws where you live, and you may bring proceedings in your local courts.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date above and, where required by law, provide additional notice. Continuing to use WorldPlay after an update means you accept the updated terms.
