Who you are agreeing with

These terms are between you and [legal name not set], trading as MyWorldsArt (“we”, “us”). By making an account or subscribing you accept them. If you do not accept them, do not make an account.

Subscriptions are sold by Paddle.com Market Ltd as Merchant of Record, which means it is the seller on your receipt and handles payment, invoicing and tax. Its own buyer terms apply to the transaction itself.

Your account

• Give a real email address. It is how we reach you and the only way to recover access.
• Your account is yours alone. Do not share it, sell it, or sign in as somebody else.
• Keep your password to yourself, and tell us if you think it has been used by someone else.
• Choose a display name that is not offensive, and does not impersonate another person. We may reset a name that breaks this.
• You must be at least 13 to hold an account.

The subscription

There are three monthly plans: One world ($5 a month, 1 project of your choice); Three worlds ($10 a month, 3 projects of your choice); Every world ($15 a month, every project, including projects released while you are subscribed). The projects your plan covers get their higher access; every other project keeps its free version. You choose your projects from your account and can change them once per billing month. Moving to another plan is charged or credited for the rest of the month straight away.

If a member invited you with their referral link and you have never subscribed before, your first month is free. After it, your plan renews at its normal price unless you cancel before the free month ends.

It renews every month until you cancel. What happens in each case:

• You cancel — access continues until the end of the period you have already paid for, then stops. We do not take another payment.
• A renewal payment fails — access pauses until payment succeeds. Update your card through the billing link on your account page.
• You are refunded — access ends at once, including any part of the period already paid for, because the payment for it has been returned.

Refunds are covered by our refund policy.

What the subscription is, and is not

Many MyWorldsArt projects are prototypes or still in development, and the subscription is early access to work in progress. Features may change, break, be rebuilt or be withdrawn. A project may never be finished. We do not promise any particular project, feature or release date, and the roadmap is a statement of intent rather than a commitment.

Subscribing grants you a personal, non-transferable permission to use the projects while your subscription is paid for. It does not transfer ownership of anything. The projects, their code, art, music, names and branding remain ours, and you may not copy, resell, redistribute or reverse-engineer them, or work around the checks that control access.

Giving

Each calendar month, we set aside a share of that month's subscription income, after payment fees and tax, for charity: 10% to start, 15% once 100 people subscribe, 20% once 500 people subscribe, 25% once 1,000 people subscribe. Paying subscribers vote among a shortlist we choose, and the month's share is split in proportion to the votes; a month with no votes carries its share into the next. We make the donations after the month ends and publish each one, with its receipt, on the Giving page.

Your subscription pays for access to the projects. It is not itself a donation to any charity, and is not tax-deductible.

Using the projects fairly

Do not:

• cheat, exploit bugs for advantage, or interfere with other players’ games;
• harass, threaten or abuse anyone, in multiplayer or anywhere else we host;
• attack the service, probe it for weaknesses without asking us first, or try to overwhelm it;
• use automated means to create accounts or claim access.

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms. Where we close a paid account for a serious breach, we do not refund the remainder of the period.

Found a security problem? Email contact@myworlds.art and give us a reasonable chance to fix it. We will not pursue anyone who reports in good faith and does not damage or access other people’s data.

Availability

We do not promise the service will always be available. Projects and this site may go offline for maintenance, or because something has broken. We will try to keep interruptions short, and to warn you about planned ones where we can.

If something goes wrong

We provide the service with reasonable care, but as work in progress and without further guarantees. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, lost data, lost progress or lost profits, and our total liability to you is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the problem arose.

Nothing here removes rights you have as a consumer that cannot be removed by agreement, including your statutory refund and cancellation rights.

Closing your account

You can stop at any time: cancel the subscription, and email contact@myworlds.art if you also want the account and its data deleted. We may close accounts that break these terms, or stop offering the service altogether, in which case we will give notice by email and not charge you for a period you cannot use.

Changes to these terms

We may change these terms. If a change matters to subscribers we will say so on this page and by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use the service after that means you accept the new terms; if you do not, cancel.
