thereof or remove or edit Content (as defined below), without prior notice
either permanently or temporarily, at which point your right to use those
Services or any part thereof will be automatically terminated or suspended.
The transmission of information over wireless

we may not guarantee that your personal data or private communications will
always remain private when using our Services. You accept all responsibility
for such security risks and any damage that may result therefrom. It is also

as complex passwords, etc.) in order to secure your device from any unauthorized
access.
U.S. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS: Our
Services have been developed entirely at private expense and are provided as “Commercial Computer Software” or “restricted computer software”. Any use, duplication or disclosure by the U.S. Government or a U.S.
Government subcontractor is subject to the restrictions set forth in
subparagraph (c)(1)(ii) of the Rights in Technical Data and Computer Software
clauses in DFARS 252.227-7013 or as set forth in subparagraph (c)(1) and (2) of

4. Purchases In The
Services
When you make in-app purchases ("Virtual
Items"), the payment for such purchases may be processed either by third
parties on our behalf, or directly by the owner of the Online Store. If you
download the Apps from the Online Store owner, when you purchase Virtual Items
in our game, Linn Nielsen is not a party to the transaction and your
purchase will be governed by the third-party platform’s payment terms and conditions. Please
review the platform’s terms of service for additional
information. Thus, if you have any payment related issues (including
cancellation or refund requests), then you will need to contact the respective
Online Store owner directly.
You understand that while you may “earn,” “buy,” or “purchase”
Virtual Items in our Services, you do not legally “own” the Virtual Items and the amounts of any Virtual Item do not refer
to any credit balance of real currency or its equivalent. Any “virtual currency” balance shown in your
account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value,
but instead constitutes a measurement of the extent of your limited license.
Please note that you only purchase a limited,
revocable, non-transferrable license for personal use of Virtual Items in the
Services. Virtual Items are not “sold” to you. You agree that you do not own
any Virtual Items that you obtained through the Services, regardless of whether
you earned those Virtual Items or purchased them.
When making purchases in the Services, you
agree that the digital content will be available to you immediately, and
acknowledge that you will lose your rights to the 14 days cancellation period
and refunds available for EU and EEA residents.
Some of Linn Nielsen’s Games may offer subscription-based
Services. If you purchase a subscription, then by clicking the purchase button
you are requesting that we begin supplying the subscription Services
immediately and you are entering into a recurring subscription contract with Linn
Nielsen. You are also authorizing a charge to you on a recurring
subscription fee at the rate quoted at the time of purchase. By purchasing a
subscription, we will automatically charge on a recurring basis the payment
method associated with your account. For subscription Services purchased in a Linn
Nielsen Game played on a platform such as Apple or Google, the applicable
platform will charge you for the subscription fee and the platform’s payment terms will apply. Please review the appropriate platform’s payment terms for additional information.
Trial subscriptions are offered free of
charge for a certain period of time from activation specified in the relevant
trial offer in the Game. If you do not cancel the subscription within such
trial period, the trial subscription will automatically convert into a paid
subscription for the fees and for the subscription period set out in the Game
at the time of the activation of the trial period. You may cancel a
subscription during its free trial period using the subscription setting of
your account.
Your subscription will automatically renew
each subscription period unless and until you terminate your subscription or we
terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews, otherwise
payment of the subscription fees for the next period will be taken
automatically via your chosen payment method. In case the subscription fee
cannot be taken from your account due to absence of monetary funds, invalidity
of credit card or for any other reason, your subscription will be automatically
cancelled.
Except where required by applicable law, paid
subscription fees are non-refundable.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT Linn Nielsen IS NOT
REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE
MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED VIRTUAL ITEMS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED,
WHETHER SUCH CLOSURE WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY, OR WHETHER YOU MADE A

OR ANY OTHER SITES OR PLATFORMS WHERE WE OFFER OUR SERVICES.
