1 · Who we are & what this covers — Powderline is a free browser game operated by Roman Princ, ID No. (IČO) 21782571, registered office Hluboká 4591/10, Mšeno nad Nisou, 466 04 Jablonec nad Nisou, Czech Republic ("we", "us"). These terms govern the game, this website, rider accounts, leaderboards, quests, coins and cosmetics, purchases, 1v1 races, and the feedback you send us (together, the "service"). Contact for anything in these terms: powderlinegame@gmail.com. How we handle personal data is described in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
2 · Acceptance & changes — by playing you accept these terms; if you do not agree, do not play. Creating an account requires explicit acceptance (the checkbox at sign-up, or continuing with Google where the sign-up screen says so); we record the time and the version of the terms you accepted. We may amend these terms for legal, regulatory, security, technical, economic or gameplay reasons. The current version, with its effective date, is always published on this website and in the game menu; material changes are announced in the game at least 14 days before they take effect, unless a shorter period is required by law or to address a security or legal risk. If you do not agree with a change, stop playing and, if you have an account, delete it before the effective date; continued use after the effective date means acceptance.
3 · Eligibility & your account — you must be at least 15 years old to create an account, or have a parent's or guardian's permission (the game itself is playable without an account at any age). One account per person, registered with a real e-mail address or Google account you control. Keep your credentials to yourself — we will never ask for your password — and tell us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised; you are responsible for activity on your account until you do. Rider names are unique; we may change or remove a name that is offensive, misleading, impersonates someone or infringes rights. We may refuse, suspend or close accounts under section 8. You can delete your account at any moment under ACCOUNT → DELETE ACCOUNT; deleting is as easy as signing up and takes effect immediately.
4 · The service — free to play (with optional coin purchases under section 9), provided "as is" and "as available", with no warranty of availability, uninterrupted or error-free operation, compatibility with your device or browser, or preservation of progress. The game is under continuous development: features, the economy, drop odds, difficulty, the leaderboards and the game itself may be changed, rebalanced, reset, suspended or discontinued at any time without compensation — though we will stop selling coin packs ahead of any permanent shutdown and give reasonable notice where we can. You are responsible for your device, browser, internet connection and any data charges. Nothing in these terms limits your mandatory statutory rights.
5 · Health & safety — the game contains fast motion, rapidly changing images and light, and repetitive inputs. A small number of people may experience seizures or discomfort from such content; if you or anyone in your family has an epileptic condition, consult a doctor before playing, and stop immediately if you feel dizzy, disoriented, nauseous or unwell. Take regular breaks. The tricks in the game are simulated and exaggerated: do not attempt to imitate them or any in-game behaviour in real life. We are not liable for injury or loss caused by real-world imitation of the game.
6 · Fair play & prohibited conduct — you must not: cheat, exploit bugs for advantage, or use bots, scripts, macros, modified clients or any automation to play, to post scores or to interact with the service; probe, scan, overload, disrupt or interfere with the service, its API or its infrastructure, or bypass any limit, cap or security measure; access or attempt to access another person's account or data; create or control multiple accounts to farm invite rewards, quests, coins or feedback rewards; impersonate other people or misrepresent your affiliation; use rider names, leaderboard entries, feedback or screenshots that are offensive, hateful, sexual, threatening, harassing, misleading, unlawful or infringe anyone's rights; harass or abuse other riders, in races or elsewhere; copy, scrape, decompile, reverse-engineer, re-host, frame or create derivative works of the game or its assets except to the extent mandatory law expressly permits; use the service for any commercial purpose without our written permission; or sell, buy, trade or transfer accounts, coins or items. Report exploitable bugs to us instead of using them — a report that leads to a fix is rewarded (section 10).
7 · Your content — rider names, leaderboard posts, feedback and screenshots you submit remain yours. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, reproduce, display and use them for the purpose of running, moderating, securing and improving the service: leaderboard names and scores are shown publicly for as long as the entry stands; feedback and screenshots are used internally. You confirm that you have the right to submit what you submit, that it contains no unlawful material and no personal data of other people, and that it does not infringe anyone's rights. We may remove or refuse any content without notice if we believe it breaks these terms or the law. Illegal content or conduct can be reported to powderlinegame@gmail.com; we review reports and act on them without undue delay.
8 · Enforcement — if these terms are broken we may, in proportion to the breach: warn you; remove leaderboard entries, names or content; revoke coins, items or rewards gained through abuse; restrict features; and suspend or delete the account. Where practicable we will tell you what rule was broken. You can object to any measure at powderlinegame@gmail.com and we will review it. We may report unlawful conduct to the competent authorities.
9 · Coins, cosmetics & purchases — coins and cosmetic items are virtual content, not money or property: they have no monetary value, exist only as a limited licence to use them in the game, which ends with the account, and they cannot be sold, transferred between accounts, exchanged or cashed out. Coins are earned through quests, invites and feedback rewards, or bought as coin packs in the shop, with the final price including VAT shown at checkout. Payments are processed by Stripe under its own terms; we never see your card details. Purchased coins are delivered to your account within seconds of payment — by buying you expressly request this immediate delivery and acknowledge that, once delivered, the 14-day right of withdrawal for digital content no longer applies (art. 16(m) of Directive 2011/83/EU, § 1837(l) of the Czech Civil Code). Your statutory rights for digital content that does not conform to the contract are unaffected — if paid coins do not arrive or do not work, write to us and we will fix it or refund you. Otherwise purchases are non-refundable to the extent the law allows. If you are a minor, buy only with a parent's or guardian's consent. Deleting the account forfeits any remaining coins and items. Wheel odds are published in the shop, including the legendary pity timer; the economy may be rebalanced under section 4, but coins you bought will never be taken away except where a payment is reversed, disputed or found to be fraudulent, in which case we may remove the coins and items obtained with it and suspend the account.
10 · Feedback rewards — we may reward a bug report or suggestion with coins when, in our judgement, it leads to a change in the game. Rewards are discretionary: there is no entitlement to a reward, duplicate, vague or spam reports are not rewarded, our decision on whether a report qualifies is final, and the programme may be changed or ended at any time.
11 · Leaderboards — by posting a run you grant us the right to display the rider name, score and distance you submitted, publicly and for as long as the entry stands. Entries that break section 6 may be removed, and boards may be reset when the game or its economy changes materially. Anonymous entries can be removed on request (see the Privacy Policy).
12 · 1v1 races — races run peer-to-peer between the two players. We do not operate the connection infrastructure (PeerJS, STUN/TURN servers) and are not responsible for its availability, for the quality of the connection, or for your opponent's conduct. Racing reveals your IP address to your opponent — see the Privacy Policy. We do not guarantee that an opponent will be available.
13 · Ownership & your licence — the game, its code, artwork, sounds, name and logo belong to us or to their respective authors (third-party assets are credited in the project's CREDITS file and used under their own licences). You receive a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to play the game in your browser for private, non-commercial purposes. You may record and publish videos or streams of your own gameplay, including on monetised channels, provided they are not misleading and do not present the game as your own. Any other reproduction, distribution, re-hosting, framing or extraction of the game or its assets requires our written permission.
14 · Third-party services — parts of the service rely on third parties: Stripe (payments), Google (sign in with Google), Supabase (hosting of accounts and data), Resend (e-mail delivery) and PeerJS/STUN/TURN (races). Their terms and privacy policies apply to your use of them, and we are not liable for their availability or conduct.
15 · Liability — the service is free, and to the extent permitted by law we are liable only for damage caused intentionally or by gross negligence. We are not liable for loss of virtual items, coins, progress or leaderboard entries; for unavailability, interruptions or changes of the service; for the acts of other riders or of third-party services; for damage caused by your own device, browser, connection or by your breach of these terms; or for real-world imitation of the game (section 5). Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited — in particular liability for harm to life or health, for intentional or grossly negligent conduct, and your mandatory rights as a consumer.
16 · Indemnity — to the extent permitted by the law applicable to you, you will compensate us for losses, costs and claims by third parties that arise from your breach of these terms, from content you submitted, or from your unlawful use of the service.
17 · Termination — you may stop playing and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access or account for breach of these terms (section 8), where the law requires it, or, with reasonable notice where possible, if we discontinue the service. On termination your licence ends and any coins and items are forfeited, without prejudice to section 9 and to your mandatory rights; personal data is handled as described in the Privacy Policy.
18 · Law & disputes — these terms are governed by the laws of the Czech Republic; if you are a consumer, the mandatory protections of the law of your country of residence still apply, and nothing here deprives you of the right to bring proceedings before the courts of that country. Please contact us first — most issues are solved by e-mail. Consumers in the Czech Republic and the EU may use alternative dispute resolution before the Czech Trade Inspection Authority (Česká obchodní inspekce, Štěpánská 567/15, 120 00 Praha 2, coi.cz) or another body entitled to resolve consumer disputes in their country.
19 · General — if any provision of these terms is invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. We may transfer these terms and the service to a successor operator, telling you in advance; you may not transfer your account or rights under these terms. These terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service. They are written in English; a translation, if offered, is for convenience and the English text governs to the extent the law allows.
Version 3 — published 6 September 2026. Effective immediately for new accounts and from 20 September 2026 for existing riders (version 2 of 18 August 2026 applies to them until then).
