Terms of Use

1. Acceptance and scope

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) form an agreement between you and Virtux regarding your use of Jarana, a mobile party-games app, and any optional web page or feature that expressly links to these Terms. By installing, accessing, or using Jarana, you agree to these Terms and the Jarana Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use Jarana.

2. Eligibility and shared-device use

You may use Jarana only if you can legally agree to these Terms. If you are below the age of majority where you live, use Jarana with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. The person who starts or hosts a game is responsible for making sure the group understands the rules, has appropriate permission to participate, and uses the app safely.

Jarana is designed for a shared phone. Do not enter information that you would not want another person with access to that phone to see.

3. Licence to use Jarana

Subject to these Terms, Virtux grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to install and use Jarana for your own lawful, non-commercial entertainment on devices you own or control.

Except where applicable law gives you a right that cannot be restricted, you may not copy, modify, adapt, translate, distribute, sell, rent, lease, sublicense, publicly perform, commercially exploit, or create derivative works from Jarana or its content. You may not remove notices, bypass technical protections, or use Jarana to build a competing product or service.

4. How the app works

Jarana provides local game rules, prompts, content, setup tools, scoring, and other entertainment features. The core game loop is intended to work without an account or internet connection. Local saves are convenience features, not a backup service: we do not promise that game history, player profiles, photos, scores, or preferences will survive a device change, reset, storage failure, operating-system cleanup, or uninstall.

Some games may offer QR codes that open optional browser pages hosted by Virtux, including Garabato Loco and Descifra el Código. Those pages may require a compatible browser and network connection, and are governed by these Terms only to the extent they link here.

5. Photos, names, and other user content

Jarana may let you enter names, nicknames, emojis, scores, text, or a player photo. You keep any rights you have in content you provide. You represent that:

• you have the right and permission to enter or use the content;
• you have permission from people shown in a photo and will respect their reasonable privacy expectations;
• the content does not contain passwords, payment details, government identifiers, health information, or other sensitive information that is unnecessary for the game; and
• the content does not violate law, another person’s rights, or these Terms.

Because the current Jarana game loop is local, Virtux does not claim a general licence to publish your local player photos or party content. You are responsible for any content you voluntarily show, export, screenshot, transmit, or upload outside Jarana, including content entered into a QR companion page or shared with another service.

6. Acceptable use

You must use Jarana lawfully and with respect for the people playing. You must not:

• use Jarana to threaten, harass, bully, humiliate, discriminate against, stalk, or endanger anyone;
• create or share content that is unlawful, defamatory, hateful, sexually exploitative, abusive, or invasive of another person’s privacy;
• use the app to facilitate fraud, gambling, illegal activity, or conduct that could cause physical or emotional harm;
• interfere with, overload, probe, scan, scrape, or attempt to compromise the app, QR pages, servers, or another person’s device;
• introduce malware, harmful code, automated requests, or content designed to disrupt the service;
• reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or circumvent a protection in Jarana except to the extent applicable law expressly permits it; or
• use Jarana or its content for commercial redistribution, paid event services, advertising, or training a competing system without our written permission.

7. Physical, social, and age-appropriate safety

Jarana is entertainment, not professional advice or a safety system. Some prompts may involve movement, acting, dares, personal opinions, or social disclosure. Before starting, the host should skip anything unsuitable for the group, venue, age, health, accessibility needs, culture, or relationship boundaries.

Never use Jarana while driving, cycling in traffic, operating machinery, or doing anything that requires attention to safety. Do not follow a prompt that feels unsafe, unlawful, coercive, humiliating, or non-consensual. Do not use Jarana to pressure someone into physical contact, sexual activity, dangerous acts, consuming alcohol or drugs, revealing private information, or breaking the law. Participants may stop or skip at any time. You and the host are responsible for your choices, consent, boundaries, supervision, and the safety of the venue and group.

8. QR pages and third-party services

A QR code may move you from the app to a browser. Virtux does not guarantee that every browser, network, QR scanner, device, or external service will be available, secure, accurate, or compatible. Browser local storage can be cleared, blocked, or lost. Mobile platforms, browsers, hosting providers, and any linked third-party service may impose additional terms and process information under their own policies.

We may change, restrict, remove, or discontinue a QR page or link at any time. Do not rely on a QR page as the only copy of important information.

9. Ownership and feedback

Jarana, its software, game engine, visual design, names, logos, prompts, text, artwork, and other materials are owned by Virtux or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. These Terms give you a right to use Jarana; they do not transfer ownership to you.

If you send feedback, ideas, or suggestions, you grant Virtux a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use, adapt, and incorporate that feedback without payment or attribution, provided we do not use it to identify you in a way that conflicts with the Privacy Policy.

10. Updates, availability, and data loss

We may release updates, new games, content changes, security fixes, or compatibility changes. An update may change, remove, or reset a feature. We may suspend or discontinue all or part of Jarana, a game, or a QR page for maintenance, security, legal, operational, or product reasons. We do not promise uninterrupted, error-free, permanently available, or fully compatible operation.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Jarana and its content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, security, and that the app will meet your expectations or be free of errors or harmful components.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits a warranty, guarantee, right, or remedy that applicable consumer law does not allow us to exclude or limit.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Virtux and its owners, affiliates, licensors, service providers, officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive loss, or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, opportunity, data, or device content arising from or related to Jarana, a QR page, or these Terms.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for claims arising from your use of Jarana will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for Jarana in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim or one hundred euros (€100). This limit does not apply where liability cannot legally be limited, including for fraud, wilful misconduct, or death or personal injury caused by negligence where applicable law prohibits limitation.

13. Indemnity

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Virtux and its affiliates, licensors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and reasonable expenses arising from your unlawful use of Jarana, your breach of these Terms, or content and conduct you introduce or share through Jarana or a QR companion page. This does not require you to indemnify Virtux for Virtux’s own unlawful conduct where applicable law prohibits it.

14. Suspension and termination

You may stop using Jarana and uninstall it at any time. We may suspend or terminate access to a hosted feature, QR page, or Jarana distribution where reasonably necessary to address security, legal, abuse, operational, or product concerns, or if you materially breach these Terms. Sections concerning ownership, acceptable use, safety, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, and dispute handling survive termination to the extent necessary.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when Jarana changes or when legal requirements change. We will publish the updated version at this URL and change the “Last updated” date. Material changes will be communicated through an appropriate product, store, or website notice where required. If you continue using Jarana after the effective date, the updated Terms will apply to future use, subject to rights that cannot be waived.

16. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are subject to the mandatory consumer-protection laws that apply where you live. Where those laws permit a choice of law or forum, these Terms will be governed by the law of the jurisdiction where Virtux is established and disputes will be handled by the competent courts there, unless applicable law gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere. Nothing here removes your right to use a mandatory consumer dispute-resolution process or to bring a claim before a court that applicable law says is competent.
