Prices and availability of Virtual Items are subject to change without notice. In addition to the foregoing, AAAGAME may selectively remove or revoke Virtual Items associated with your Account upon its sole discretion.
Virtual Items may only be held by legal residents of countries where access to and use of the Services are permitted.

AAAGAME does not recognize any purchases or transfers made outside of the Service on any other platform or e-commerce website, and shall not be liable for any claims or damages caused to the users with respect to Virtual Items purchased or obtained from third parties, and not through the means provided within the game. We reserve the right to refuse your request to purchase and/or acquire Virtual Items for any reason or revise the pricing for the Virtual Items at any time. You can get a limited license to Virtual Items by visiting the purchase page in one of our games, providing your billing information, confirming the particulars of your purchase and re-affirming your agreement to these Terms. Virtual Items purchased in our games on other applications stores or platforms such as but not limited to Facebook, Apple iOS, or Android will be subject to those platforms’ payment terms and conditions. AAAGAME does not control how you can pay on those platforms and shall not be liable for processing the payment by such third parties. Please review those platforms’ terms of service for additional information. Your order for Virtual Items will represent an offer to us to obtain a limited license for the relevant service(s) or virtual in-game item(s) which will be accepted by us when we make the Virtual Items available in your account for you to use in our games or debit your credit card or other account through which you paid, whichever comes first. Your limited license to Virtual Items for use in AAAGAME games is a service provided by AAAGAME that starts when we accept your payment or redemption of third party virtual currency. When you get a limited license to use Virtual Items, they will reside in your Account until discharged through use of the Service or otherwise surrendered as a result of termination of the Services in accordance with these Terms. When purchasing Virtual Items or other content as may be made available, you agree to pay us the applicable charges for your purchase, including applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using an Account registered to you, using a valid charge card or other payment method we may accept in accordance with the billing terms and prices in effect at the time the fee or charge becomes payable. All sales of Virtual Items and/or other content are final. If your Account is charged for items you did not purchase, or you did not receive the items you purchased, or you were charged an incorrect amount, you may request a refund or correction in accordance to payment provider policy. Any refund request must be received within 96 hours from the time of purchase in order for refunds to be issued in accordance to payment provider policy. Refund requests past 96 hours from time of purchase will be honored according only in accordance to our payment policy. Other than charges to your Account, you agree to notify us about any billing problems or discrepancies within 30 days after they first appear on your Account statement. If you do not bring them to our attention within 30 days, you agree that you waive your right to dispute such problems or discrepancies. You are responsible for and agree to reimburse us for all reversals, charge-backs, claims, fees, fines, penalties and other liability incurred by us (including costs and related expenses) that were caused by or arising out of payments that you authorized or accepted. You understand that we may suspend or terminate your Account if for any reason a charge you authorize us to make to your credit card or other method of payment cannot be processed or is returned to us unpaid and, if such event occurs, you shall immediately remit to us payment for such charge through an alternative payment method. You acknowledge that AAAGAME is not required to provide a refund for any other reason, and that you will not receive money or other compensation for unused virtual items when an Account is closed, whether such closure was voluntary or involuntary, or whether you made a payment through AAAGAMEAPP.com, applications stores or another platform such as but not limited to Apple, Google, Facebook, or any other sites or platforms where we offer our Services. All Virtual Items are forfeited by You if your Account is terminated or suspended for any reason, in AAAGAME's sole and absolute discretion, or if the Service is no longer available. If your Account, or a particular subscription for the Service associated with your Account, is terminated, suspended and/or if any Virtual Items are selectively removed or revoked from your Account, no refund will be granted, no Virtual Items will be credited to you or converted to cash or other forms of reimbursement.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND AAAGAME TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU AND AAAGAME CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER.
By agreeing to these Terms, you and AAAGAME agree that any and all disputes, claims or causes of action between you and AAAGAME arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, the formation of these Terms or any other dispute between you and AAAGAME or any of AAAGAME’s licensors, distributors, suppliers or agents (including but not limited to any application store or platform from which the Service is accessed or downloaded), and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this Section, (collectively, “Dispute(s)”) will be governed by the procedure outlined below. You and AAAGAME further agree that any arbitration pursuant to this Section shall not proceed as a class, group or representative action.
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of China and all disputes arising shall be referred to the Shanghai Arbitration Commission in China. Any such proceedings shall be conducted in Chinese and the location of arbitration shall be in China.
If you live in the United States or another jurisdiction that allows you to agree to arbitration, you and COMPANY agree that all Disputes, as defined below, between you and COMPANY will be settled by binding arbitration, unless otherwise provided herein.
This agreement does not apply (1) if you are a resident of any jurisdiction which prohibits this arbitration agreement, (2) if you opt out of this arbitration agreement as described in section (e) below, or (3) to certain types of Disputes described in section (e) below. Please read this provision carefully.
a. Purpose
This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Provision (“Provision”) facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any disputes that may arise between you and COMPANY. Arbitration is a form of private dispute resolution in which persons with a dispute waive their rights to file a lawsuit, to proceed in court and to a jury trial, and instead submit their disputes to a neutral third person (or arbitrator) for a binding decision. In the absence of an arbitration agreement, you may otherwise have a right or opportunity to bring claims in court, before a judge or jury, and/or participate in or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including, but not limited to, class actions). Arbitration replaces the right to go to court. Except as otherwise provided herein, by agreeing to these Terms, you waive your right to litigate claims in court and waive the right to have your claims heard by a judge or jury. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorneys’ fees). You have the right to opt-out of this Provision (as explained below), which means you would retain your right to litigate your disputes in a court, either before a judge or jury. For the purpose of these Terms, including this Provision specifically, “COMPANY” means AAAGAME, its partners, parent companies, subsidiaries, licensees, licensors and affiliates. “Dispute” means any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and COMPANY regarding any aspect of your relationship with COMPANY, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence), or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below). “Dispute” is to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced.
b. Agreement to Arbitrate / Waiver of Right to Jury Trial
YOU AND COMPANY EACH AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION, AND YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. you understand and agree that by entering into this agreement you and COMPANY are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, you and COMPANY might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring Disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that you would have if you went to court, such as the right to appeal and to certain types of discovery, may be more limited or may also be waived.
c. Class Action Waiver
Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless both you and COMPANY specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration. If you choose to pursue your Dispute in court by opting out of this Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other user of the Service can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.
d. Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution
For all Disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give COMPANY an opportunity to resolve the Dispute. You must commence this process by written notification to:
Address: AAAGAME Unit 417,4th Floor, Tower Two Lippo Centre, 89 Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong
That written notification must include (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) a written description of your Claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief you seek. If COMPANY does not resolve the Dispute within 45 days after it receives your written notification, you may pursue your Dispute in arbitration. You may pursue your Dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.
e. Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt Out
Notwithstanding the above, you or COMPANY may choose to pursue a Dispute in court and not by arbitration if (i) the Dispute qualifies, it may be initiated in small claims court; or (ii) YOU PROVIDE THE COMPANY WRITTEN NOTICE OF YOUR DESIRE TO OPT-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THIS AGREEMENT (the “Arbitration Opt-Out Notice”). To opt-out of these arbitration procedures, you must provide written notification to:
Address: AAAGAME Unit 417,4th Floor, Tower Two Lippo Centre, 89 Queensway, Admiralty, Hong Kong
Your written notification must include (1) your name, (2) your address, and (3) a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with COMPANY through arbitration. Your decision to opt-out of this Provision will have no adverse effect on your relationship with COMPANY. If you do not provide the Company with an Arbitration Opt-Out Notice within 30 days from the date that you first consent to these Terms, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any dispute except as expressly set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above.
Additionally, notwithstanding the above, COMPANY reserves the right to bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction against you to stop and/or seek compensation for the intentional or willful misuse or abuse (e.g. hacking or falsifying location) of its intellectual property, services, and products.
f. Arbitration Procedures – United States Users
If this Provision applies and the Dispute is not resolved as provided above (“Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution”) either you or COMPANY may initiate arbitration proceedings. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all Disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration. Unless both you and the Company agree in writing, the arbitrator shall not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope and enforceability of this Provision, as well as any dispute related to its interpretation, applicability, or formation, including any claim that all or any part of it is void or voidable. For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules for Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action procedures or rules apply to the arbitration. Because the Service and these Terms concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all Disputes. However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.
Arbitration Award – The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.
Location of Arbitration – For Disputes between the COMPANY and users who are residents of the United States, you or COMPANY may initiate arbitration in either San Francisco, California or the federal judicial district that includes the address you provide in your written notification of Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution. In the event that you select the federal judicial district that includes the address you provide in your written notification of Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution, COMPANY may transfer the arbitration to San Francisco, California in the event that it agrees to pay any additional fees or costs you incur as a result of the transfer, as determined by the arbitrator.
Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs – Each Party shall pay its own arbitration filing fees and arbitrator’s costs and expenses. You are responsible for all fees and costs that You incur in the arbitration, including, but not limited to, attorneys or expert witnesses. Fees and costs may be awarded as provided pursuant to applicable law.
g. Arbitration Procedures – Users Outside the United States
For Disputes between the COMPANY and users who are not residents of the United States that are not resolved through the Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution procedures set forth above, either you or COMPANY may initiate arbitration by submitting the Dispute to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) for arbitration. Such arbitration shall be conducted exclusively in Hong Kong, at HKIAC, in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of applying for arbitration. The appointing authority shall be HKIAC. The language to be used in the arbitral preceding shall be English. In such arbitration before HKIAC, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of Hong Kong, regardless of choice of laws or conflicts of laws.
The arbitral award is final and binding upon both parties and the award shall be rendered in the English language pursuant to the laws of Hong Kong. No demand for arbitration may be made after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim or dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitation.
h. Severability
If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision, and the remainder of this Provision will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the Dispute will be decided by a court.
i. Continuation
This Provision shall survive this Agreement, the termination of your Account (if applicable), and/or your access to or use of the Service.
16. GENERAL
You are subject to all laws of the geography in which you reside and from which you access the Services and are solely responsible for obeying those laws. You agree AAAGAME cannot be held liable if laws applicable to you restrict or prohibit your participation. AAAGAME makes no representations or warranties, implicit or explicit, as to your legal right to access or participate in the Services nor shall any person affiliated, or claiming affiliation, with AAAGAME have authority to make any such representations or warranties. AAAGAME reserves the right to monitor the location from which you access the Services and to block access from any jurisdiction in which participation is illegal or restricted.
The AAAGAME’s Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and AAAGAME relating to the subject matter hereof, and (except in the case of fraud or made a fraudulent misstatement) supersede all prior understandings of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, whether those prior understandings were electronic, oral or written, or whether established by custom, practice, policy or precedent, between you and us. Nothing in this subsection will prevent AAAGAME from modifying the AAAGAME’s Terms.
You and AAAGAME agree that if any portion of the AAAGAME’s Terms is found illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective solely to the extent of such determination of invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of the AAAGAME’s Terms, which shall continue to be in full force and effect.
AAAGAME may assign or delegate the AAAGAME’s Terms, in whole or in part, to any person or entity at any time with or without your consent. You may not assign or delegate any rights or obligations under the AAAGAME’s Terms without AAAGAME’s prior written consent, and any unauthorized assignment and delegation by you is void and ineffective.
The failure of AAAGAME to require or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of the AAAGAME’s Terms or failure to exercise any right under them shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of AAAGAME's right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance. The express waiver by AAAGAME of any provision, condition, or requirement of the AAAGAME’s Terms shall not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement. Except as expressly and specifically set forth in this these Terms, no representations, statements, consents, waivers, or other acts or omissions by AAAGAME shall be deemed a modification of these Terms nor be legally binding, unless documented in physical writing, hand signed by you and a duly appointed officer of AAAGAME. You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made under the AAAGAME’s Terms to AAAGAME are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which shall irreparably harm AAAGAME and which cannot be replaced by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, AAAGAME shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligations of posting any bond or surety or proof of damages) in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach by you. You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, or to enjoin or restrain the operation of the Service or any AAAGAME game, exploitation of any advertising or other materials issued in connection therewith, or exploitation of the Service or any content or other material used or displayed through the Service and agree to limit your claims to claims for monetary damages, limited by Section “Limitation of Liability” set forth above (if any).
The headings titles in these Terms are provided solely for convenience and have no legal or contractual significance.
AAAGAME shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside the reasonable control of AAAGAME, including without limitation any failure to perform hereunder due to unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond AAAGAME’s control such as acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, network infrastructure failures, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.
