Letroca — Terms of Use

1. What Letroca is

Letroca is a Portuguese (Brazil) word game for iPhone: you connect neighboring letters on a grid to form words before time runs out, in Classic, Survival, Team and Daily Mission rounds. You can play solo, in local versus against a second player on the same iPhone, or online with other players in a room. How your information is handled is described in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.

2. License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use Letroca on Apple devices that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, reverse-engineer or create derivative works from the app or its word list, except where the law expressly allows it.

3. Your profile and local progress

Your nickname, avatar, best scores, trophies and Daily Mission history are stored on your iPhone. You are responsible for the nickname and avatar you choose. Uninstalling the app, or using the "erase local data" control in Settings, permanently removes this local progress; we cannot recover it for you.

4. Online play, rooms and the Daily Mission

Online modes connect you to a room identified by a code, run by our server. Joining a room shares your nickname and avatar, and the words and scores you submit during a round, with the other players in that room. There is no account, sign-in or password: a session is created for you when you start, and a room's host can start rounds, change settings or be reassigned if they disconnect. The Daily Mission gives every player the same grid for the day and counts one official attempt per day; replaying it afterwards is for practice and is not scored.

You agree not to use another player's name or avatar to impersonate them, to abuse reconnection or the room system to disrupt other players' games, or to attempt to interfere with the server's word validation.

5. Game Center

Letroca can optionally report trophies as achievements and scores to leaderboards through Apple Game Center. This requires you to sign in to Game Center through Apple's own screen; we never see your Apple ID or Game Center credentials, and the app works the same if you stay signed out.

6. Acceptable use

You agree not to use Letroca to:

• harass or abuse other players in online rooms;
• interfere with, damage, overload or attempt to gain unauthorized access to our servers or to Apple's services;
• reverse-engineer the word-validation or scoring logic to cheat;
• use the app for any unlawful purpose.

7. Availability and changes

We may update, change or discontinue features of the app, including online modes, word lists, leaderboards and the rooms server. Online play requires a working internet connection and depends on our server being available; solo and local versus play do not. If we discontinue online play, your locally stored progress is not affected.

8. No warranty

Letroca 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 do not guarantee that the word list is complete or free of errors, or that online rooms, reconnection or scoring will always work without interruption.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of data, arising from your use of or inability to use Letroca, including loss of local progress or interrupted online rounds. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid for the app in the twelve months preceding the claim.

10. Apple

These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support, and is not responsible for any claim relating to the app. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you. Where these terms conflict with the App Store Terms of Service or Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement, Apple's terms prevail to the extent of the conflict.

11. Termination

You may stop using Letroca at any time by deleting it from your device, which deletes its local data. We may suspend your access to online rooms, or terminate the license, if you materially breach these terms.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and subject to any mandatory consumer protection rights in your place of residence.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the app changes materially — for example, if new online modes or paid features are introduced. The current version, with its effective date, is always available inside the app and at the public link listed in the App Store.
