Terms of Use

Home Heroes — The Game Effective date: 2026-06-04 Version 1.2

Note: These Terms of Use are published in Finnish and English. In case of conflict between language versions, the Finnish version (terms-of-use-fi.md) prevails, unless mandatory consumer-protection law requires otherwise.

1. About the App

Home Heroes — The Game is a gamified household chores management app developed by NOX Visual Oy (Business ID: 3371824-6). The app is available on the Apple App Store for iPhone and iPad.

The app is designed for families: parents assign chores or other everyday tasks to children (primarily ages 5–12), who complete tasks to earn points and rewards. The app's gameplay works entirely locally on your device — no account creation or registration is required, and no gameplay data is sent over the network. Purchasing a subscription and verifying its status, however, happen through the Apple App Store, which requires an Apple ID and an internet connection (see section 3).

By using the app, you accept these Terms of Use. If you are under 18, your parent or guardian must accept these terms on your behalf.

2. License

Granted license

We grant you a personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the app on your Apple device for personal, non-commercial use within your family.

What the license does not cover

You may not:

• Copy, modify, or distribute the app or its content.
• Use the app for commercial purposes or resale.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to access the app's source code.
• Create derivative works based on the app.

3. Subscription, Free Trial, and Payments

Premium subscription

The app's full content is unlocked with a Home Heroes Premium subscription. The subscription is auto-renewable and available in two options:

• Monthly — €4.99 / month
• Yearly — €39.99 / year

Prices apply to Finland (EUR). Apple may display locally adjusted pricing in other regions.

7-day free trial

New subscribers receive a 7-day free trial during which the app is fully usable at no charge. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the trial, the subscription automatically converts to paid and the price of your chosen period is charged. If you purchase a subscription during the trial, any unused portion of the free trial is forfeited.

Payment, renewal, and cancellation

• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account upon confirmation of purchase.
• The subscription renews automatically at the same price at the end of each period. To stop the next renewal, cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Apple charges the renewal fee within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
• You can manage and cancel the subscription at any time in your device's App Store account settings (Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions). Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; the period already started is not refunded.

What the subscription unlocks

The subscription unlocks the app's full content: all heroes and worlds, weekly boss battles, daily puzzles, treasures and achievements, and the parent management tools. The app has no separate one-time purchases and no advertising.

Family Sharing

The subscription supports Apple Family Sharing: a single subscription can be shared among members of the same Apple Family group, in accordance with Apple's terms.

Subscriptions are handled by Apple

Subscription payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not process or store your payment information, and we have no access to your payment-card or Apple ID details. Subscription management and any refunds are handled by Apple under its own terms.

4. User Responsibilities

Parental responsibility

The app is designed for joint use by parents and children. The parent or guardian is responsible for:

• Supervising children's use and setting up the app appropriately.
• Keeping the PIN code private from children (if desired).
• The accuracy of information entered into the app.
• Using the app in accordance with these terms.

Data backup

All data stored in the app is the user's own responsibility. We recommend that parents export data regularly (Settings → Export and import data) as a backup, especially before switching devices or updating the app.

Accuracy of information

You decide what information is entered into the app. We do not review or evaluate entered information, and we are not responsible for its accuracy.

5. Prohibited Use

The following uses are prohibited:

• Using the app for illegal purposes.
• Attempting to break, bypass, or circumvent the app's security mechanisms.
• Using the app in a way that may cause harm to its operation.

The app currently has no social features (chat, user-to-user messaging, shared content, etc.). If such features are added in the future, we will update these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy before they are introduced.

6. Intellectual Property

Developer ownership

All intellectual property rights related to the app — including but not limited to copyrights, trademarks, artwork, code, and structure — belong to NOX Visual Oy or its licensors. These Terms of Use do not transfer any intellectual property rights to you.

User content

Information you enter into the app (such as children's names, family-created tasks, and messages) is your own property. It is stored only on your device, and we do not have access to it.

Third-party components

The app includes open-source components (e.g., React). These components have their own licenses. The app does not include paid third-party content or licensed music.

7. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

The app is provided "as is"

The app is provided without warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding error-free or uninterrupted operation, or fitness for a particular purpose. We make our best effort to keep the app functional, but cannot guarantee error-free operation on all devices and iOS versions.

Limitation of liability

The developer is not liable for:

• Loss of data (for example, if the device breaks or the app is deleted without a prior export — local data may be permanently lost in such cases).
• Indirect or consequential damages.
• Interruptions in app availability or technical issues.

To the maximum extent permitted by mandatory consumer-protection law, the developer's maximum liability to the user is in all cases limited to the amount the user has paid for the subscription during the preceding 12 months. This limitation does not restrict the user's mandatory consumer-protection rights.

Important note about local data

All app data is stored on your device. Data will be lost if you delete the app without exporting first, if your device is reset, or if a technical issue occurs. We strongly recommend regular data exports via Settings → Export and import data.

8. Changes and Termination

Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms of Use as needed. Changes will be communicated through app updates or on our App Store page. Continued use of the app after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

Termination

You can stop using the app at any time by deleting it from your device. An active subscription must additionally be cancelled separately in your App Store account settings (section 3), as deleting the app alone does not cancel the subscription. We may also discontinue support for the app or publish a replacement version without separate notice. This does not restrict the user's mandatory consumer-protection rights.

Your license automatically terminates if you violate these terms.

9. Governing Law

These Terms of Use are governed by Finnish law.

Any disputes will first be addressed through negotiation. If no agreement is reached, disputes will be resolved in a Finnish court of general jurisdiction.

Consumers also have the right to bring matters to the Finnish Consumer Disputes Board: https://www.kuluttajariitalautakunta.fi/
