This is the agreement between you and us for our services that we make available via our websites. You can only access the services once you agree to the terms. > You are now reading our Terms of Service Agreement (“Terms”) which is a legal agreement between you and Exploding Kittens Inc ( “EK”, “we”, “us”, “our”, as appropriate) regarding the Services you use from us. “Services” means collectively, and sometimes individually, the following: any website(s) (“Sites”), software or other services we make available via our Sites including, but not limited to, Mobile Messaging (defined below). We’ve tried to be straightforward in our Terms and if you have any questions feel free to send us a note at legal@explodingkittens.com (our “Support Email Address”). You’ll notice that we added some text in italics throughout the Terms to make it easier to read; however this text is provided for guidance only, and does not form part of the Terms.
You’ll notice some capitalized terms in the Terms. They’re called “defined terms,” and we use them so we don’t have to repeat the same language again and again, and to make sure that the use of these terms is consistent throughout the Terms. We’ve included the defined terms throughout because we want it to be easy for you to read them in context.
When you give us information, you need to make sure it stays up to date. Also, don’t share your account with others without our permission.
As long as you agree to the Terms (and as long as the Terms are not terminated—see Section 18), we grant you permission to access and use our Services. If you can’t agree, we can’t let you use our Services.
We may sell products and services via the Site, which will be posted on the Site with the applicable price. We may change these prices at any time and reserve the right to do so. We will charge the payment method (e.g., credit card) for the applicable products purchased, including, but not limited to applicable shipping fees (which will be disclosed to you prior to your purchase) and sales, use or other taxes (each, a “Transaction”). All amounts are payable and charged at the time your order is placed. You expressly authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to third parties so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected. You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity before completing your Transaction (such information is included within the definition of Payment Information). By initiating a Transaction, you agree to the pricing, payment and billing policies applicable to such fees and charges, as posted or otherwise communicated to you. All amounts and applicable taxes, if any, are payable in United States dollars. Title and risk of loss pass to you upon our transfer of the products to a common carrier.
We strive to make all of our users feel safe and welcome when using our Services and we want everyone to *play* by the same rules. So, if you use our Services as intended, without being abusive, disruptive or disrespectful, or being unfair, you are probably in the clear, but please read all of the Terms carefully to be sure. You agree not to do any of the following with respect to the Services, as determined by us, as applicable:
Our Service including our Content is owned by us or our licensors. Our Services may let you upload, post and store photos and other content that you own.

We may (but don’t have to) remove or disable access to any Content, at any time and without notice. We may (but don’t have to) investigate violations of the Terms or conduct that affects the Services.
We’d love to hear your feedback, good or bad. It helps us improve! But if you give us feedback, we need to be free to use it how we want and without paying you.

This license does not lapse or expire even if we do not exercise our rights under this license within a period of one year. If you have rights in the Feedback that cannot be licensed to us under applicable law (such as moral and other personal rights), you hereby waive and agree not to assert those rights. You understand and agree that you are freely giving your Feedback, that we don’t have to use it, and that you will not be compensated in any way for your Feedback. You represent and warrant that you have rights in any Feedback that you provide to us sufficient to grant us and other affected parties the rights described above, including, without limitation, intellectual property rights or rights of publicity or privacy. In posting such Feedback, you warrant that your feedback is in compliance with the Terms and you will not use obscene or offensive language or submit any material that is, or may potentially be, defamatory, abusive or hateful, an invasion of anyone's privacy, harmful to other users, or breach the applicable laws.
