Sudoku Hurdle Terms of Use

Sudoku Hurdle is made by RopoLabs. You may play it; you may not tamper with the leaderboard or resell the app. Purchases are handled by Apple, so refunds and cancellations go through Apple, not through us.

Sudoku Hurdle is licensed, not sold. Your licence to use the app is Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which applies in full. These terms sit alongside it and cover the service — the leaderboard, the daily puzzle and the coin economy — rather than the app binary. Where the two genuinely conflict, Apple’s agreement wins.

You do not need an account. If you make one, keep your password to yourself; you are responsible for what happens under your account.

One person, one account. Do not automate the game, modify it, or otherwise file a time you did not actually achieve by solving the puzzle in the app.

Leaderboard names are public. Choose one that is not offensive, not impersonating somebody, and not an advertisement. We may remove or reset a name that is any of those, and we may remove times we have good reason to believe were not honestly achieved.

Solve times are verified on our server. A submission that fails verification may be rejected or removed.

Coins are a feature of the game. They have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money, cannot be transferred between accounts, and are not property. They exist only inside Sudoku Hurdle and can be changed or discontinued as the game changes.

Every puzzle includes one free hint, on the daily and on Classic alike; Plus includes ten. Coins are for hints beyond that allowance in either mode, for Auto notes, and for opening a past day.

Coin packs are one-off purchases. Sudoku Hurdle Plus is an auto-renewing subscription, sold in two lengths: one month or one year. It renews at the end of each period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before that period ends, and your Apple account is charged for the renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends.

You manage and cancel a subscription in your Apple ID settings, not in this app. Deleting your Sudoku Hurdle account does not cancel a subscription — cancel it with Apple first, or it will keep renewing.

Refunds are Apple’s to give. If Apple refunds a purchase, we are told, and the coins or the Plus period that purchase paid for are withdrawn.

Prices are shown in the app in your own currency, as reported by the App Store, and may change. A price change never applies retroactively to a purchase already made.

Plus removes the ads, opens every past daily puzzle, and starts every board with ten free hints instead of one — the ranked daily included. It does not grant coins. The leaderboard ranks on solve time alone.

“Removes the ads” means the ads the game shows you: the banner and the full-screen ads between puzzles. Rewarded ads — the optional ones you choose to watch in exchange for a hint, coins or a past day — remain available on both Plus and the one-time Remove Ads purchase. You are never required to watch one.

The daily puzzle, the leaderboard and the archive depend on our server. We try to keep it running and we do not promise that it always will be. Puzzles you have already started remain playable on your device.

We may change or discontinue features. If a change removes something you have paid for, we will say so rather than let it lapse quietly.

You can stop using Sudoku Hurdle at any time, and delete your account from inside the app — read section 10 of the privacy policy for exactly what that does today. We may suspend an account that breaks these terms, in particular one manipulating the leaderboard.

Sudoku Hurdle is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, RopoLabs is not liable for indirect or consequential loss arising from using it. Nothing here limits any right you have as a consumer that cannot be limited by agreement.

If these terms change, the date at the top changes and the new version is published here. Continuing to play after that means the new version applies.
