About these terms

These terms govern use of the Hearth & Banner website operated by Rustic Ruby Games. Contact us at hello@hearthbanner.com. The game is in development and information published here may change.

These terms apply to the website only. Private testing and any future public game service may be subject to separate terms.

Permitted use

You may use the website for lawful personal and non-commercial purposes. You must not disrupt or interfere with the website, bypass access controls, attempt unauthorised access, use abusive automated collection, or falsely represent an association with Hearth & Banner or Rustic Ruby Games.

Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, the website, Hearth & Banner, and the associated names, text, artwork and other materials are owned by Rustic Ruby Games or the relevant licensors. No intellectual-property rights are transferred to you by making the website available. This does not restrict any use permitted by law.

Third-party services and links

The website and private-test services may depend on third-party hosting, security, authentication, sign-in or diagnostics services, and may link to third-party websites. Your use of a third party's own service is subject to its applicable terms. See our privacy information for how personal data is handled.

Availability and accuracy

The website is provided for information about a game in development. We do not guarantee that development information will remain current, complete or unchanged, or that the website will always be available. We may change, suspend or withdraw content or access where reasonably necessary.

Liability

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any mandatory consumer rights.

Subject to the paragraph above, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Rustic Ruby Games is not liable for loss arising solely from reliance on provisional development information or from temporary unavailability of this informational website.

Privacy and account deletion

Our privacy information explains how personal data is processed. Account-deletion requests are covered by our account deletion guidance. These terms do not remove any rights you have under applicable data-protection law.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the website or applicable legal requirements change. The date above identifies the current version.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of mandatory protections or court rights available under the law that applies to you. Otherwise, the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
