Terms of Use

Last updated: 25 July 2026 · Version: 2.0
Developer: Atekian · Contact: atekiandev@gmail.com

By downloading or using 13: Jack Hunt (the "app") you accept these terms. If they do not work for you, please do not use the app.

1. Acceptance, age, and capacity

• The app is for people aged 13 and over. If you are under 13, do not use it.
• If you are under 18, you may use the app and make purchases with the permission of a parent or guardian. You must get that permission before making any purchase.
• By accepting these terms you confirm that you have the capacity to enter a binding agreement, or that you have obtained the necessary permission.

2. Licence and intellectual property

The app's name, logo, artwork, card and theme designs, sounds, texts, and software belong to Atekian. What you receive is a limited, non-transferable, revocable right to use the app on a supported device for personal, non-commercial purposes.

You may not copy, distribute, rent, sell, modify, reverse engineer, or attempt to derive the source code of the app (except where applicable law overrides these restrictions).

3. Account and identity

• Automatic account. When you first open the app you receive an anonymous identity. There is no sign-up, and no email or phone number is required.
• Linking is optional. You may link your account to Apple or Google. Linking is not a login wall but insurance for your progress: your coins, cosmetics, and nickname stay exactly as they are, and your identity becomes recoverable.

• No transfers. You may not sell, rent, trade, or transfer your account to anyone else; we are not responsible for losses arising from account sharing.
• One person, one account. Using multiple accounts to influence rankings, rewards, or matchmaking is prohibited (see section 7).
• Deleting your account. You can delete your account and server-side data instantly from inside the app; details: Account & Data Deletion.

4. Nickname rules

Your nickname is content you create and it is visible to other players (at the table and on the leaderboard). It is subject to these rules:

• It is unique. Only one player can hold a nickname; a difference in letter case does not make it a different name.
• Format: 3–16 characters, must start with a letter, and may contain only letters, digits, and underscores (_).
• Prohibited content: profanity, insults, hate speech, sexual content, incitement to violence, advertising/spam, and other people's personal data.
• No impersonation: names implying that you represent another player, Atekian, a staff member, a brand, or an institution are not allowed.
• We may reset a name. We can reset a nickname we find to be in breach without prior notice; you will then have to choose a new one, and any coins you paid are not refunded.
• Changing it: the first nickname is free and immediate. Later changes cost 200 coins and can be made once every 7 days. We may change both values for game balance without prior notice; the value in force is the one the app shows you at the time.

If you see an inappropriate nickname, report it to atekiandev@gmail.com.

5. Online play and server authority

• Server authority. In online matches, dealing, rule enforcement, and scoring happen on our server. In a dispute, the server record prevails; what your device shows is only a reflection of it.
• Auto-move on timeout. If you do not play within the time limit on your turn, the server makes a safe move on your behalf. If you miss several turns in a row, your seat may be taken over by a bot for the rest of the game; the match is completed on your behalf.
• Disconnection. If you disconnect, the match continues without you and is resolved with automatic moves. No compensation, coin refund, or rematch can be claimed for losses caused by connectivity.
• Bot backfill — stated openly. When matching with strangers through "Quick Play", if there are not enough people in the queue, empty seats are filled with computer-controlled players (bots) after a short wait. Humans are always preferred over bots. We are not hiding this: some of your opponents at the table may be bots.
• Cancelling or ending a match. In case of technical failure, suspected cheating, or maintenance, we may cancel or end a match; rewards and points from that match may then be voided.
• Continuity is not guaranteed. Online features may be interrupted temporarily for maintenance, updates, or infrastructure failure, and we may discontinue them permanently (see section 9). The app's single-device modes are unaffected.

6. Leaderboards and periods

• Periods reset. Leaderboards are kept in weekly and monthly periods; every new period starts from zero.
• Ranking accuracy is not guaranteed. Points are computed server-side; ranks may temporarily appear wrong because of latency, failure, or corrections. No claim arises from ranking errors.
• Friendly matches do not count. Invite matches, where you pick your opponents, do not affect the leaderboard.
• No prize commitment. Appearing on the leaderboard does not by itself create a right to any reward today. If we introduce rewards, we will announce the conditions in advance and reserve the right to change them.
• On detected cheating. If we detect ranking manipulation, we may delete your entry, reset your points, and restrict your access to leaderboards.

7. Prohibited conduct

While using the app you may not:

• Use bot clients, automation, macros, or a modified build of the app
• Abuse exploits, bugs, or unintended behaviour (we would appreciate a report instead)
• Use multiple accounts to manipulate rankings, rewards, or matchmaking
• Farm rewards or coins: accumulating ad rewards, game-finish rewards, or leaderboard points by artificial means
• Send excessive, automated, or malicious requests to our servers, or attempt to circumvent rate limits
• Reverse engineer the app or its network traffic, break its encryption, or bypass security measures
• Harass or threaten other players, or spread offensive content
• Use the app for any purpose contrary to applicable law

8. Coins, purchases, and refunds

• The app is a social entertainment game; it is not a gambling or betting service. There is no wagering of real money and no cash prizes.
• In-game coins and cosmetics (themes, card decks, pawn skins) have no real-world monetary value; they cannot be cashed out, transferred, or sold, and create no right outside the app. A coin is an in-game counter, not a currency or store of value.
• Everything purchasable is cosmetic; nothing that affects the outcome of a game is for sale.
• Payment and refunds. Purchases are made through the App Store or Google Play and are subject to that store's payment, billing, and refund policies. Refund requests must go to the store; since we do not take the payment, we cannot issue the refund either.
• Restoring. One-time purchases such as "Remove Ads" can be moved to a new device with the same store account via restore purchases. Consumable purchases such as coins cannot be restored; they are tied to your game account.
• If the account closes. If you delete your account, or we close it, your remaining coins and unlocked cosmetics are lost irreversibly and no refund is given for them. A "Remove Ads" entitlement bought from the store remains tied to your store account and can be restored.
• Prices and content may change. We may change coin prices, reward amounts, and store content for game balance. Changes do not affect ownership of items you have already bought.
• Your consumer rights are reserved. Nothing in this section limits your statutory rights of withdrawal or your rights regarding defective services.

9. Suspension and termination

• You, at any time. You can end this agreement whenever you like by deleting the app or deleting your account.
• Us, on breach. If you breach these terms, we may suspend your access temporarily or end it permanently. For lesser breaches we try to warn you first; for cheating, fraud, and conduct that harms others we may close the account immediately.
• Consequences. If your account is closed, your coins, cosmetics, statistics, and leaderboard entries are lost, and no refund is given for them.
• Appeals. If you believe a decision was wrong, write to atekiandev@gmail.com and we will do our best to review it.

10. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

The app is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not guarantee that it will run uninterrupted, error-free, or flawlessly on every device, nor that data will never be lost.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for loss of profit, loss of data, loss of progress, reputational harm, or indirect, incidental, or punitive damages. Where liability does arise, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim arose.

This section does not cover liability for our wilful misconduct or gross negligence, liability for death or personal injury, or any other liability that consumer law does not allow to be limited. Your statutory rights as a consumer are unaffected by this text.

11. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by Turkish law. The courts and enforcement offices of Istanbul have jurisdiction over disputes.

Your consumer rights are reserved: as a consumer, you keep the right to apply to the consumer arbitration committee or consumer court where you live. If you live outside Türkiye, the mandatory rights granted to you by your country's consumer law are unaffected by this clause.

12. Apple App Store additional terms

If you obtained the app from the App Store, this section also applies and prevails in case of conflict:

• These terms are between you and Atekian only, not with Apple. Atekian alone is responsible for the app and its content.
• Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish maintenance and support for the app; maintenance and support are solely Atekian's responsibility.
• If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple may refund the purchase price. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation; all other warranty claims are directed to Atekian.
• Atekian, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including product liability, conformity with consumer law, and infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. If a third party claims the app infringes their intellectual property, defence and settlement are Atekian's responsibility.
• Export compliance: you represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. embargo and are not on any U.S. list of prohibited or restricted parties.
• U.S. Government end users: the app is "commercial computer software" under the applicable federal regulations and is provided with only those rights granted there.
• Apple as third-party beneficiary: Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and have the right to enforce them against you directly.

13. Changes and contact

We may update these terms from time to time; for material changes the "Last updated" date and version number change. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the new terms. If you do not accept them, you can stop using the app and delete your account.
