Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms,” “Agreement”) set out the rules for accessing and using itchiogamesbox.com (the “Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). They cover every page, article, guide, review, game feature, playable browser content and any other material or service offered on the Site. By visiting or using the Site, you confirm that you have read these Terms and agree to follow them.

itchiogamesbox.com is an independent informational website with a catalog of browser games inspired by the itch.io indie scene. The Site may offer game descriptions, editorial pieces, reviews, guides and access to browser-based titles taken from publicly available sources, as well as recommendations of other titles. In these Terms, “you” means anyone who visits or uses the Site. If you do not accept these Terms, please stop using the Site.

Depending on applicable law and where you are located, some disputes may go to arbitration or another alternative resolution process instead of court. Please read the “Dispute Resolution” section below.

Updates to These Terms

We may change these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to the Site, the law or our practices. The version posted on this page, along with its effective date, is the current Agreement.

Changes apply going forward from the moment they are posted and do not reach back to disputes or situations that arose earlier. If you keep using the Site after an update appears, you accept the revised Terms.

We may also add, change, pause or remove pages, features, content or other parts of the Site at any time, with or without notice.

Privacy

Our Privacy Policy describes how information linked to your use of the Site may be gathered, processed and handled. Using the Site means you also accept the practices it describes.

Any information you give us should be accurate and reasonably current. Where these Terms and the Privacy Policy conflict on the handling of personal information, the Privacy Policy prevails on those points.

Eligibility and Use of the Site

The Site serves a general international audience and is not designed specifically for children. We do not knowingly ask for or gather personal information from children where the law prohibits it.

If you are below the legal age that applies where you live, use the Site only with the knowledge and supervision of a parent or legal guardian when local law requires it.

Compliance With Applicable Laws

You are responsible for making sure your use of itchiogamesbox.com follows the laws, regulations and restrictions that apply to you and your location.

We may limit, suspend or end access to certain content, features or sections of the Site when we find it necessary for legal, security, operational or other legitimate reasons.

Prohibited Activities

While using the Site, you agree that you will not:

• Spread unlawful, abusive, threatening, defamatory, fraudulent or harmful material through the Site.
• Use the Site for unauthorized ads, spam or unrelated commercial promotion.
• Try to obtain, gather or misuse other visitors’ personal information without their consent.
• Disrupt the operation, availability, performance or security of the Site or the systems behind it.
• Copy, reproduce, alter, republish, distribute or commercially exploit original Site content without proper permission.
• Try to reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble or get around technical protections used on the Site.
• Frame, mirror, reproduce or embed large parts of the Site or its content on another website without permission.
• Republish large portions of our original guides, reviews, articles or other editorial work elsewhere.
• Use bots, scrapers, crawlers, scripts or other automated tools to collect significant amounts of data from the Site without authorization.

Content Management

We have no duty to constantly monitor every item of content, link, feature or material on or through the Site. We do, however, keep the right to review, edit, limit, disable or remove content whenever we consider it appropriate.

We may do so for legal, technical, security, editorial, operational or other reasons. Details on how personal information is handled are in our Privacy Policy.

Third-Party Websites and Content

The Site may include links, ads, embedded media, game resources or other material supplied by third parties, including work by independent developers whose titles appear in the catalog.

Third-party websites and services run separately from itchiogamesbox.com. We do not control their content, availability, security, policies or business practices, and a link or embedded item does not by itself mean we endorse that party or its services.

If you decide to visit or use a third-party website, service or resource, you do so at your own discretion and under that party’s terms and policies.

Disclaimer of Warranties

The Site and everything available on it are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent the law allows, we give no express or implied warranties about the availability, reliability, accuracy, completeness, security or suitability of the Site or its content.

We do not promise that the Site will always be reachable, uninterrupted, secure, without errors or fully current. Game information, guides, reviews, embedded content and third-party material may contain mistakes or become out of date.

If you run into a problem with the Site or think something should be corrected, please tell us through our Contact page or at [email protected].

Information for Parents and Guardians

Parents and guardians decide which content is suitable for the children in their care. Some titles in the catalog include horror themes, so checking a page before a child plays is a good idea. To restrict access to certain websites or types of content, you can use parental-control software, browser restrictions, filters or similar tools.

Copyright and DMCA Notices

If you think material on the Site infringes your copyright, you can send a complaint as described in our DMCA Policy.

We review notices that are properly submitted and, where appropriate and legally required, may remove, restrict or disable access to the material named in a valid complaint.

Dispute Resolution

As far as applicable law permits, any dispute about your use of the Site that cannot be settled informally may be decided by binding arbitration instead of a court case. This does not stop you from using rights that cannot legally be waived, such as any right to bring an individual claim in small-claims court.

Before beginning formal proceedings or arbitration, both sides agree to make a reasonable attempt to resolve the issue informally. You can start by writing to us through our Contact page and describing the matter in enough detail for us to review it.

General Provisions

Nothing in these Terms creates an employment, partnership, agency, joint venture or other business relationship between you and itchiogamesbox.com.

If any part of these Terms is found invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining parts stay in effect to the fullest extent the law allows.

You may not assign or transfer your rights or duties under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer ours as part of a sale, restructuring, merger, acquisition or other transfer involving the Site or its operation.

These Terms, together with the policies they refer to, form the entire agreement between you and the Site about your use of itchiogamesbox.com and replace any earlier agreements or understandings on the same subject.

We are not liable for delays, interruptions or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, such as technical failures, infrastructure problems, service outages or natural events.
