Terms of Service

Effective date: July 5, 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Glenn Bacon ("we", "us") about your use of the Gumdroplet app. By downloading or playing Gumdroplet you agree to them. They're short — Gumdroplet is a game, not a platform.

License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and play Gumdroplet on Apple devices you own or control, for your own entertainment, subject to Apple's App Store terms. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works from the app except where the law expressly permits it.

Advertising

The free version shows occasional full-screen advertisements served by Google AdMob. Ads appear only between moves at natural pauses. Ad content is provided by third parties and we don't endorse it.

In-app purchase: Remove Ads

• Remove Ads is a one-time, non-consumable purchase ($4.99 USD, or the equivalent in your local storefront) that permanently disables advertising.
• Billing is handled by Apple through your Apple Account; we never receive your payment details.
• The purchase can be restored at no charge on any device signed in to the same Apple Account via "Restore Purchases" in the game's settings.
• Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's refund policies — request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. If Apple refunds the purchase, ads will return.

Intellectual property

Gumdroplet — including its name, characters (yes, the Muncher too), procedurally generated art, sounds, and code — is owned by Glenn Bacon and protected by copyright and other laws. These terms don't transfer any ownership to you.

Acceptable use

Don't use the app in any unlawful way, attempt to interfere with its operation or its ad and purchase systems, or misrepresent your relationship with us.

Disclaimer of warranties

Gumdroplet is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We don't guarantee the app will be uninterrupted or error-free.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the app. Our total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid for it in the twelve months before the claim (which, if you never bought Remove Ads, is zero).

Changes and termination

We may update the app or these terms from time to time; the current terms will always be at this page with the effective date above. Continuing to play after a change means you accept the updated terms. We may discontinue the app at any time, though your Remove Ads purchase remains valid for as long as the app is available.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which the developer resides, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Nothing in these terms limits any consumer rights you have under the law of your place of residence.
