12.2 You can use Virtual Currency to acquire other Virtual Items within our Games. Except as required by law, we do not provide any refunds for Virtual Currency. You are responsible for checking that Virtual Items have been correctly credited to your Account and notifying us immediately if it has not.
12.3 When you sign up or pay for Virtual Items (including Virtual Currency), we grant you a licence pursuant to section 6. Virtual Items have no monetary value, no value outside of our Digital Goods & Services, and will not earn interest. You cannot sell, trade or transfer the license to Virtual Items, or exchange them for cash. Any attempt to sell, trade or transfer the license to Virtual Items, or exchange them for cash is a breach of these Terms and may result in actions taken against you, including the termination of your Account.
12.4 We may manage, regulate, control, modify, or eliminate Virtual Items (including a cap on the number of Virtual Items that can be acquired or held) at any time, with or without giving you any notice. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to reissue, reintroduce, resell, rotate, modify, or otherwise make Virtual Items available again at any time, including, without limitation, as part of special events, bundles, promotional campaigns, discounted offers, or other game features. You acknowledge and agree that the purchase or acquisition of any Virtual Item does not grant you any right or entitlement to continuous availability, exclusivity, or future restrictions on how, when, or at what price such Virtual Items may be offered.
12.5 Prices, availability, and methods of obtaining Virtual Items may change at any time at our discretion, and we shall have no liability to you or any third party for exercising any such rights. Virtual Items that you previously purchased or acquired may later be offered at a lower price, as part of a bundle, at an event price, or at no additional cost as part of game features, rewards, or promotional activities. You acknowledge and agree that any such changes do not create any right to a refund, credit, or compensation, except where required under applicable law.
13.1 When accessing our Digital Goods & Services, you may acquire a license to use the Digital Goods, including Virtual Items and Virtual Currency. When you do so, it may result in charges to you and you agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred from acquiring a license to the Digital Goods. Payments can be executed by using the payment methods associated with your Account. In some cases, we may also provide discounts or special offers for the Users for certain Digital Goods.
13.2 We aim to ensure that the pricing of our Digital Goods & Services (including Virtual Items, Games and any other Digital Goods available in our store) is correct at all times. However, the Game and website pages may not always accurately reflect the correct details at the moment at which you place your order. We reserve the right to change prices without prior notice at any time before the formation of the contract. We cannot confirm the price of an item until your order is accepted. Where you are resident in the European Union, we will charge VAT or applicable sales tax on purchases as required by law, and you agree to provide the information we reasonably require in order to determine the applicable VAT or sales tax rate.
13.3 All credit and charge card holders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to us, your order will not be accepted and we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
13.4 You are allowed to purchase Digital Goods made available to you on Pawprint’ Website or through the Game. Pawprint may make available to you various payments processing methods to facilitate such payment. You agree to abide by any relevant terms or other legal agreement, whether with us or with a third party, that governs your use of a given payment processing method. If you are directed to our third-party payment processor page, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party's service and that third party's privacy policy. Please review such third party's terms and conditions and privacy policy before using such service. We may add or remove payment methods in relation to our Digital Goods & Services at our sole discretion and without notice to you.
13.5 It is also your responsibility to put in place security measures on your device and the card linked to your Account, such as for example PIN, password, fingerprints and face recognition.

13.7 We may cancel a payment and make a chargeback to you, including any transaction fees incurred with payment providers, if we have reason to believe any purchase is incomplete or any purchase is made, or we suspect it is made, fraudulently or in an otherwise non-bona fide manner.

It will state what the item(s) you have ordered are, the cost (including VAT) and where a physical product, the postage and packaging and delivery, invoice and cancellation details. If your order has been unsuccessful, you will be made aware of the reason why and possible explanations. Please note that this acknowledgement email/message does not mean that your order has been accepted – your order constitutes an offer to us to purchase the Digital Goods & Services. All orders are subject to acceptance by us. When we make the Digital Goods & Services available e.g. as a download, this represents our legal acceptance of the offer you made to purchase the Digital Goods & Services and the contract between us will then be formed (and we or the third party platform or service provider will debit your account).
We want to provide you with the best possible service. We hope you are delighted with your Games, Virtual Items and Digital Goods & Services. However, if you change your mind, the cancellation policy set out below will apply.

If you require customer support or would like to report a complaint, a fault or abusive behaviour in violation of the rules set out in Section 8 and Section 12 or if you have any other questions or comments in relation to our Games, Virtual Items or Digital Goods & Services then you may contact Pawprint Support Team.
24 .1 This Section offers a streamlined way to resolve disputes between you and us if they arise. Most of your concerns can be resolved by contacting Pawprint Support Team. If we cannot resolve your concern within 60 days of receiving notice of the dispute from you, both you and we agree to be bound by the procedure set forth in this section to resolve any and all disputes between us. For U.S. and Canadian residents, see section 26.8 below.
24 .2 You will be responsible for all your legal costs incurred in relation to any dispute between us and fifty per cent (50%) of any arbitration costs, including fees payable to the arbitrator. This will apply notwithstanding the outcome of any Arbitration.
24 .3 Claims Covered by Arbitration: All Disputes shall be determined exclusively by binding arbitration. This includes claims that accrued before you entered into these Terms. The only Disputes not covered by this section are claims regarding the infringement, protection or validity of your, our or our licensors’ intellectual property, trade secrets or copyright, trademark or patent rights.
24 .4 Informal Negotiations: you and we shall first attempt to resolve any Dispute informally for at least sixty (60) days before initiating arbitration. The informal negotiations commence upon receipt of a Notice of Dispute. The Notice of Dispute must: (a) include the full name and contact information of the complaining party; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. We will send our Notice of Dispute to your billing or email address. You will send your Notice of Dispute by contacting Pawprint Support Team. Most Disputes are resolved by our Pawprint Support Team but if for whatever reason they are not able to solve the issue, you will be provided an opportunity to escalate the matter first to our responsible management team.
2 4 .5 Binding Arbitration: If you and we cannot resolve a Dispute informally, subject to the exceptions in sections 26.3 and 26.4, you or we will have the Dispute finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration shall be administered by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) under the SIAC Administered Arbitration Rules in force when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted. The seat of arbitration shall be Singapore. You shall be responsible for fifty per cent (50%) of all arbitration fees. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing, and shall provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. You and we may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgement on the award entered by the arbitrator.
24 .6 Limitations: YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN OUR OR YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator shall not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and shall not preside over any type of representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favour of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If this specific subsection is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of these Terms to arbitrate shall be null and void and the parties acknowledge that any such claim and dispute shall be resolved exclusively by and in the courts in Singapore and in accordance with the laws of Singapore.
26.7 Location: if an in-person hearing is required, the hearing under section 26.5 will take place in Singapore and any other required hearing will take place in Singapore. Any decision or award may be enforced as a final judgement by any court of competent jurisdiction or, if applicable, application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement.
24 .8 FOR U.S. AND CANADIAN USERS ONLY: This section 24 .8 applies only to Users who reside in the U.S. or Canada and offers a streamlined way to resolve disputes between you and us if they arise. Most of your concerns can be resolved by contacting Pawprint Support Team. If we cannot resolve your concern within 60 days of receiving Notice of your dispute, both you and we agree to be bound by the procedure set forth in this section to resolve any and all disputes between us. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT PROVIDES THAT YOU AND WE ARE AGREEING TO RESOLVE MOST DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF COURT TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS.
24 .8.1 Claims Covered by Arbitration: All Disputes shall be determined exclusively by binding arbitration unless you have opted-out pursuant to these Terms. The term “Dispute” is intended to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced. If you have a Dispute that cannot be resolved through negotiation within the time frame described in the “Notice of Dispute” clause below, you and we agree to seek resolution of the Dispute only through arbitration of that Dispute in accordance with the terms of this section, and not litigate any Dispute in court, except for those matters listed in the Exclusions from Arbitration clause. Arbitration means that the Dispute will be resolved by a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury. Your agreement to arbitrate survives your, or our, termination of your access to the Digital Goods & Services.
24 .8.2 Exclusions from Arbitration: You and we each agree that the following causes of action and/or claims for relief are exceptions to the Disputes covered by the arbitration agreement and will be brought in a judicial proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction (as outlined in this arbitration agreement): (i) any claim or cause of action alleging actual or threatened infringement, protection or validity of your, our or our licensors’ intellectual property, trade secrets or copyright, trademark or patent rights; (ii) any claim or cause of action seeking emergency injunctive relief based on exigent circumstances (e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack); or (iii) a request for the remedy of public injunctive relief, where such remedies are permitted and cannot be waived by applicable law. In addition, to the extent your claim or Dispute qualifies under applicable law, you may elect to proceed in small claims court.
24 .8.3 Opt-Out Right: YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER WITHIN 30 DAYS, BUT YOU MAY NOT OPT OUT OF A PRIOR AGREEMENT WITH PAWPRINT . IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THIS SECTION, YOU MUST NOTIFY US IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU ACCEPT, OR ANYONE ACTING ON YOUR BEHALF ACCEPTS, THESE TERMS UNLESS A LONGER PERIOD IS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THIS SECTION BY EMAIL TO PAWPRINT SUPPORT TEAM. WITH THE SUBJECT LINE “Terms of Use – Opt-Out Notice.” YOUR WRITTEN NOTICE MUST INCLUDE: (1) YOUR PLAYER ID, (2) YOUR NAME, (3) YOUR ADDRESS, (4) THE EMAIL ADDRESS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR APP STORE OR PAWPRINT STORE ACCOUNT, IF YOU HAVE ONE, AND (5) A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH US THROUGH ARBITRATION. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, IF YOU PREVIOUSLY AGREED TO ARBITRATE UNDER A PRIOR VERSION OF THESE TERMS, THAT AGREEMENT IS STILL BINDING ON YOU; THIS OPT-OUT RIGHT ONLY APPLIES TO THE CURRENT TERMS THAT DIFFER FROM YOUR PRIOR AGREEMENT.
In order to validly terminate the arbitration agreement, we must receive your opt out notice no later than 3 days after the Opt-Out Deadline for it to be valid. You agree that you must pursue any claim in arbitration or small claims court if we do not receive an opt-out notice from you, or if we receive an opt-out notice from you more than 3 days after the Opt-Out Deadline.
24 .8.4 Notice of Dispute: If you have a Dispute with us, or any of our affiliates, you must send a written notice to Pawprint Support Team with the subject line “Notice of Dispute”. The informal negotiations commence upon receipt of a Notice of Dispute. The Notice of Dispute must: (a) include the player ID, full name and contact information of the complaining party; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought (together, the “Required Information”). If your notice does not contain all of the Required Information (or an explanation of why you are unable to include any of the Required Information), then the Notice of Dispute shall be without effect, and must be re-sent before any arbitration or other legal action may be initiated. This requirement is intended to inform us that you have a Dispute to be resolved. We will send our Notice of Dispute to your billing or email address. You and we agree to use best efforts to resolve any dispute promptly and in good faith, which efforts shall be a precondition to either party initiating an arbitration pursuant to these Terms. Most disputes are resolved by our customer service team but if for whatever reason they are not able to solve the issue, you will be provided an opportunity to escalate the matter first to our responsible management team member(s). You and we agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute informally, and in good faith, for at least 60 days after an effective Notice of Dispute is provided, before initiating arbitration pursuant to the terms of this section.
24 .8.5 Arbitration Procedure: If you and us cannot resolve a Dispute informally, subject to the exceptions in section 24 .8.2, you and we agree to have the Dispute finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), unless the AAA declines or is unable, then we will select an alternative arbitral forum.
We agree that we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees other than the initial filing fee that you must pay to file the initial arbitration demand. If your Claim is for less than US$1,000 we will reimburse you for the filing fee if you provide a written request for reimbursement with evidence of insufficient funds to pay the fee yourself. In the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, we will pay as much of your filing fee in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation. Otherwise, we will each bear the fees and expenses of our respective attorneys, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration.
Arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the AAA’s rules, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules respectively the AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules (as applicable), as modified by these Terms. The AAA rules and information about arbitration and fees are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at +1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted in English by one arbitrator, who will be appointed by the AAA. For claims under US$25,000, the arbitration will not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses but will instead be conducted based solely on written submissions, unless you or we request an in-person or telephonic hearing, or the arbitrator determines that an in-person or telephonic appearance is required. In the case of a hearing, the presumption shall be in favour of a virtual hearing, unless the arbitrator determines that a party’s right to a fundamentally fair process would be impaired without an in-person hearing. In the case of an in-person hearing, the hearing shall be conducted in a mutually convenient location. We will ordinarily request that the hearing be held in New York. You may petition the arbitrator to select an alternative location for the hearing. The arbitrator’s selection of a hearing location shall be final and binding. You agree that in the event of an in-person hearing, we or any of our employees or affiliates who are based outside of the United States and who are participating in the hearing may participate by telephone or video conference, and their physical presence will not be required.
The AAA Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees, and we will each bear the fees and expenses of our respective attorneys, experts, witnesses and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration.
Any arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award. Judgement on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction.
Ordinarily, pre-hearing information exchange will be limited to the reasonable production of non-privileged documents directly relevant to the dispute. Unless the arbitrator determines that an additional form of information exchange is necessary to provide for a fundamentally fair process, those documents will be limited to your game play data and in-app purchases and communications directly about that information among you and us. Any issues regarding discovery, or the relevance or scope thereof, will be determined by the arbitrator, and the arbitrator’s determination will be conclusive.
The arbitrator will have the power to grant declaratory or injunctive relief, whether interim or final, only in favour of you individually and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by your individual claim without affecting our other customers, and any provisional measures ordered by the arbitrator may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall not be empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages and the parties waive any right to recover such damages, including any damages excluded by section 22 above. The arbitration decision and award shall consist of a written statement signed by the Arbitrator regarding the disposition of each claim and the relief, if any, as to each claim. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the award shall be a reasoned award and contain a concise written statement of the reasons for the award. Nothing in these Terms will prevent you from seeking public injunctive relief separately from arbitration in court pursuant to these Terms, and any such application will not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or as a waiver of the right to arbitrate your individual claims. You and we agree that any proceedings seeking a remedy of public injunctive relief will proceed after the arbitration of all arbitrable claims, remedies, or causes of action, and will be stayed pending the outcome of the arbitration pursuant to section 3 of the US Federal Arbitration Act.
You and we agree that any award issued by the arbitrator in excess of USD 50,000 in favor of either party, or any award which grants any form of declaratory or equitable relief that would impact Pawprint’s offering of the Digital Goods & Services to other users, may be appealed in accordance with the AAA’s Optional Appellate Arbitration Rules at either party’s election.
24 .8.6 Class Action Waiver: TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER YOU NOR PAWPRINT SHALL BE ENTITLED TO ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. YOU MAY ONLY ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ON AN INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS BASIS AND FOR YOUR OWN LOSSES. UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN ARBITRATION OR COURT AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, MEMBER OR PART OF ANY PROPOSED CLASS, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL SUIT, QUI TAM ACTION OR ANY REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, OR OTHERWISE SEEK TO RECOVER ON BEHALF OF OTHERS OR FOR THE BENEFIT OR USE OF OTHERS IN ANY TYPE OF CLAIM OR ACTION. YOU AND PAWPRINT ARE EACH WAIVING RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY PAST, PENDING OR FUTURE CLASS ACTION OR ANY OTHER CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, INCLUDING ANY PROCEEDING EXISTING AS OF THE DATE YOU AGREED TO THIS AGREEMENT.
24 .8.7 Severability. This section 24 .8 and its subsections apply solely to the extent permitted by law. If for any reason any provision of this section 24 .8 or a portion thereof, is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part of the Terms will be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remainder of the Terms which shall continue in full force and effect. To the fullest extent allowable by law and equity, the parties agree that any such provision may be blue-penciled or otherwise construed by the forum presiding over any dispute to give effect to the intent of the parties and consistent with the overall purpose and intent of the agreement, and may be deemed replaced by an enforceable provision that comes closest to the intention underlying the unenforceable provision.
24 .8.8 Batch Arbitration. To increase efficiency of resolution, in the event 20 or more similar arbitration demands against Pawprint, presented by or with the assistance of the same law firm or organization or group of law firms or organizations working in coordination, are submitted to AAA in accordance with the rules described above within a 6-month period, AAA shall consolidate those arbitrations as contemplated in the AAA Rules by (a) grouping the arbitration demands into batches of no more than 25 demands per batch (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 25 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining demands); and (b) providing for resolution of each batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and one arbitrator assigned per batch. For avoidance of doubt, consolidation does not require that all arbitrations in a single batch be decided the same, nor does it impair your right to present any evidence or argument that you think particular to your case, so long as consistent with the AAA Rules. You agree to cooperate in good faith with Pawprint and AAA to implement such a batch approach to resolution and fees.
24 .8.9 Separate Agreement. For U.S. residents, You and we acknowledge and agree that the agreement to arbitrate under this section 24 .8 is a separate agreement between the parties governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and that any alleged or determined invalidity or illegality of all or any part of the Terms shall have no effect upon the validity and enforceability of this agreement.
24 .8.10 By signing a demand for arbitration, a party certifies, to the best of their knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, that: (i) the demand for arbitration is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution; (ii) the claims and other legal contentions are warranted by existing law or by a non-frivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law; and (iii) the factual contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, will likely have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery. The arbitrator shall be authorized to afford any relief or impose any sanctions available under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 or any applicable state law (including attorney’s fees) for either party’s violation of this requirement.

25 .3 General
The headings in these Terms are for ease of reference only and shall be disregarded in construing or interpreting the Terms. If we fail to enforce any provision of these Terms, that failure will not preclude us from enforcing either that provision (or any similar provision) on a later occasion. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court to be invalid, we agree that the court should endeavour to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision and that other provisions remain in full force and effect. We may transfer all or part of our rights or duties under these Terms provided we take reasonable steps to ensure that your rights under these Terms are not prejudiced. As these Terms are personal to you, you may not transfer any of your rights or duties under it without our prior written consent. A person who is not a party to these Terms shall have no rights to enforce any of its terms.
