Castle Jump Terms of Use

Last revised: 11 October 2026

These Terms of Use (the "Terms") are an agreement between you (the "Player", "you" or "your") and Kota Studios (the "Studio", "we", "us" or "our") about the mobile game Castle Jump, including its updates (the "App"). How the App handles information is explained in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

Castle Jump in one paragraph: the game is free to download and play. Play it for fun and don't cheat, copy or resell it. Coins, gems and other items are part of the game, not money. Your progress lives only on your device, so we can't bring it back if it's deleted. Nothing here takes away your rights under consumer law.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. BY INSTALLING, OPENING OR PLAYING THE APP YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THEM. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE APP AND DELETE IT FROM YOUR DEVICE.

1. Accepting these Terms

By using the App you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy. If you are under 18, or not old enough to enter a contract where you live, a parent or guardian must read and agree to these Terms for you, and is responsible for your use of the App.

2. The App

Castle Jump is a casual climbing game for general audiences, made for Android and iOS devices. It is free to download and play, needs no account, and every part of it can be played offline. Some features may only work on certain devices or operating system versions. Your mobile carrier's normal data charges may apply when you download or update the App.

3. Virtual items

The App includes in-game items such as coins, gems, spring boots, boosters, upgrades, relics, skins and trophies ("Virtual Items"), which you earn by playing. About Virtual Items:

  1. they are licensed to you for use in the App only; you do not own them;
  2. they have no value in real money and cannot be sold, exchanged for money or anything outside the App, or transferred to another Player;
  3. we may add, change, rebalance or remove Virtual Items, their prices in coins or gems, and what they do, for example to keep the game fair and fun;
  4. they are stored only in your save file on your device, so they are lost if the App or its data is deleted, and we cannot restore them;
  5. no Virtual Item is given at random for real money; chests and rewards in the App pay out fixed amounts that the App shows you.

4. Ads and in-app purchases

The App currently shows no ads and takes no real-money payments. Shop items shown with a real-money price are previews and cannot be bought yet. You are never required to pay to finish any level. If we add ads or purchases in a future version, we will update these Terms and the Privacy Policy before that version is released. Purchases will then be made through your app store account, under the store's payment and refund rules, in addition to your rights under consumer law.

5. Your licence to play

Subject to these Terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to install the App and play it on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial entertainment. You may record, stream and share videos and screenshots of your play, including on social media and video sites, as long as you do not suggest that the Studio endorses you.

6. Fair play rules

You agree not to:

  1. copy, sell, rent, lend, sublicense or redistribute the App or any part of it, including its art, music and sounds;
  2. decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or modify the App, except where the law expressly allows this and cannot be excluded;
  3. create, use or distribute cheats, hacks, bots, save editors or modified versions of the App;
  4. remove or change any copyright, trademark or other notice in the App;
  5. use the App in any unlawful way or to harm the Studio or anyone else.

7. Ownership

The App and everything in it, including its code, design, levels, art, characters, the Castle Jump name and the Kota Studios name and logo, belong to the Studio or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. Apart from the licence in section 5, these Terms do not give you any rights in the App. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

8. Third-party components

The App is built with the Unity engine and includes some music, sound effects and fonts made by others and used under their own licences, such as Creative Commons Zero (CC0) and the SIL Open Font License. Those licences continue to apply to those components, and their authors keep their rights in them.

9. Feedback and ideas

We love hearing from Players. If you send us ideas, suggestions or feedback, you agree that we may use them to improve the App or our other games, without any obligation to pay you or credit you.

The App links to our website, which may link to other sites and services, such as our social media pages and the app stores. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or practices; their own terms and privacy policies apply.

11. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains what information the App handles and your rights. In short: no account, no ads, no tracking, and your progress stays on your device.

12. Availability and updates

We work to keep the App running smoothly, but we do not promise that it will always be available, work on every device or be free of errors. We may release updates that fix problems, change or add levels and features, or rebalance the game, and your device or app store may install them automatically. These Terms apply to every update. We may also stop offering or supporting the App, in whole or in part, at any time.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms by posting a new version on this page with a new "Last revised" date. For important changes, we will give reasonable notice in the App or on our website, and those changes will take effect seven days after that notice. Other changes take effect from the "Last revised" date. If you keep using the App after a change takes effect, you accept the updated Terms; if you don't accept them, please stop using the App and delete it.

14. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", AND THE STUDIO MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or changes any right or remedy, or any guarantee, warranty or other term or condition, implied or imposed by law that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. This includes the consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law and similar consumer protection laws where you live.

15. Limitation of liability

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE STUDIO WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS OR DAMAGE, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF GAME PROGRESS OR VIRTUAL ITEMS, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE APP.

Where our liability for failing to meet a consumer guarantee can be limited by law, it is limited to supplying the App again or paying the cost of having it supplied again. Some places do not allow some of these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

16. Ending these Terms

You can end these Terms at any time by deleting the App from all your devices. Your licence ends automatically if you break these Terms. If the licence ends, you must stop using the App and delete it. Sections 3, 7, 9 and 14 to 19 continue to apply after these Terms end.

17. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Australia. If you have a problem with the App, please contact us first so we can try to sort it out together. If we cannot, you and we agree to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Australia. If you live outside Australia, you also keep the protection of any mandatory laws of the country where you live and may bring a claim in its courts where those laws allow.

18. App store terms

If you downloaded the App from an app store, that store's terms and usage rules also apply. If these Terms conflict with those usage rules, the usage rules prevail.

18.1 Apple App Store

If you downloaded the App from the Apple App Store, you and the Studio acknowledge that:

  1. these Terms are between you and the Studio only, not Apple Inc. ("Apple"), and the Studio, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content;
  2. your licence is limited to using the App on Apple-branded products that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, including through Family Sharing;
  3. Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the App;
  4. if the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation for the App, and any other claims, losses or costs from a failure to conform to a warranty are the Studio's responsibility;
  5. the Studio, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App, including product liability claims, claims that the App fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection, privacy or similar laws;
  6. if a third party claims that the App or your use of it infringes their intellectual property rights, the Studio, not Apple, is responsible for investigating, defending, settling and discharging that claim;
  7. you confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated by the US Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties;
  8. questions, complaints or claims about the App should be sent to the Studio using the contact details in section 20;
  9. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, once you accept them, Apple may enforce them against you as a third-party beneficiary.

18.2 Google Play

If you downloaded the App from Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service also apply. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App.

19. General

These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and the Studio about the App. If any part of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that part will be limited to the minimum extent necessary and the rest will remain in effect. If we do not enforce a right straight away, we have not given it up. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms to anyone else; we may transfer ours, for example if the App is sold, as long as your rights are not reduced.

20. Support and questions

We will make reasonable efforts to help with any problems you have with the App. For support, questions or complaints, email Kota Studios at [email protected].
