Terms of Service
1. Agreement to these terms
These terms govern your use of the Timeslipapp and the timeslip.me website (together, the “Service”), operated by the Timeslipteam (“we”, “us”). By downloading or using the Service you agree to these terms; if you do not agree, please do not use the Service. You can reach us any time at support@timeslip.me.
2. The Service
Timeslip is a daily history game. Each day at midnight UTC, one new challenge becomes available to everyone worldwide: a moment in history to place in space and time, with clues, an exploration quiz, streaks, and optional groups with leaderboards. Daily content is delivered over the internet.
3. Your subscription
Playing the daily challenge requires an auto-renewing subscription purchased through Apple. A free sample day is included so you can try Timeslip before subscribing.
- Subscription: Timeslip Annual (an auto-renewing subscription, product app.timeslip.annual).
- Length: 1 year, renewing automatically each year.
- Price: US $19.99 per year, or the equivalent local price shown in the App Store at the time of purchase.
- Free trial: new subscribers get a 7-day free trial. If you do not cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends, the subscription begins and your Apple Account is charged. Any unused portion of the trial is forfeited if you purchase a subscription before it ends. One trial per Apple Account.
- Renewal: payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends.
- Managing and cancelling: you can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your App Store account settings (Settings → your name → Subscriptions). Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription.
- Refunds: purchases are billed by Apple, and refund requests are handled by Apple under its policies (reportaproblem.apple.com).
4. Apple’s standard EULA
The Timeslip app is licensed to you under Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement, which these terms supplement. Your agreement is with us, not with Apple; Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
5. Accounts
You can play Timeslip without an account. Signing in with Apple is optional and is required only for groups and for recovering your history on a new device. You are responsible for activity that happens under your account, and you can delete your account — along with all synced data — from inside the app at any time.
6. Display names, group names, and conduct
The only text you can publish through Timeslip is your display name and the names of groups you create. Names must not impersonate others or contain content that is offensive, hateful, harassing, sexually explicit, or infringing. Group members will see your display name and your results, as described in our Privacy Policy. We may reset names, remove groups, or suspend accounts that break these rules.
7. Fair play
Please do not cheat. You must not attempt to extract answers from the app or its content delivery, submit falsified results, access our servers other than through the app, use automated tools against the Service, or interfere with its operation. You must not reverse engineer the app except to the extent applicable law permits despite this restriction.
8. Intellectual property
Everything that makes up Timeslip — the daily scenes, narration, clues, quizzes, artwork, software, and branding — is owned by us or our licensors. We grant you a limited, personal, non-commercial, non-transferable licence to use the Service. You may not copy, redistribute, or create derivative works from Timeslip content.
9. Availability and changes to the Service
New daily challenges require an internet connection. We may change, suspend, or discontinue features of the Service over time, and we do not guarantee that it will always be available, uninterrupted, or error-free.
10. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Timeslip’s historical content is created for entertainment and learning; we work hard on accuracy but do not warrant that every detail is complete or error-free.
11. Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded. Sections 10 and 12 apply only to the extent permitted by those laws.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss arising from your use of the Service, and our total liability for all claims is limited to the amount you paid for the Service in the 12 months before the claim arose. Where liability cannot be excluded but can be limited, our liability is limited to re-supplying the Service or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.
13. Termination
You can stop using the Service at any time by cancelling your subscription through Apple and deleting your account in the app. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these terms. Sections 8 and 10–14 survive termination.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia, and the courts of Victoria, Australia have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute — without limiting any mandatory consumer protections that apply where you live.
15. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If we do, we will update this page and revise the effective date above, and flag material changes in the app or on this site. Continuing to use the Service after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms.
