Terms of Use for Garden Tiles

Last updated: October 19, 2026
Effective date: October 19, 2026

Welcome to Garden Tiles. These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Pristn Technologies LLC, a limited liability company organized in the State of Nebraska, United States ("Pristn", "we", "us", or "our"), and govern your access to and use of the Garden Tiles mobile game and related services (together, the "Service").

Please read these Terms carefully. By downloading or playing Garden Tiles, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

The Service is available wherever it is offered through the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Buying gives you a license, not ownership. Garden Tiles and everything in it, including seeds, tile sets, tables and other items, and the "No video ads" and "No ads at all" purchases, are licensed to you, not sold. When you buy something in the Game, you get a limited, revocable license to use it in the Game, not ownership of it or of the Game. Section 4 explains what the license includes and when it ends.

1. Definitions

"Service" means the Garden Tiles game, its features, and related services operated by Pristn, including cloud saves, the Garden Show, leaderboards, friends and invite links.
"Account" means your game account. One is created for you when you start playing, as a guest, and you can connect it to Google Play Games or Sign in with Apple so you can recover it on another device.
"Virtual Items" means all in-game content and currencies, including seeds, tile sets, tables, hats, garden friends, frames, hints, shuffles and undos, and any other items, rewards or bonuses in the Game.
"Garden Show" means the ranked mode in which every player receives the same boards in the same order each week and points are placed on leaderboards.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are between 13 and the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian, where your local law requires it. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. The Service is not available to anyone previously removed from the Service by us.

3. Your account and player name

Guest play. Your garden is tied to your device and to an anonymous player identifier until you connect Google Play Games or Apple. If you lose the device or delete the Game without connecting one, your garden may be unrecoverable.
Connecting an account. You can connect Google Play Games (on Android) or Sign in with Apple (on iPhone, where available) to keep your garden safe and use it on another device.
Player name. You choose a player name, and a number is added to it (for example, Wren#1234). Your name is shown to other players on the Garden Show leaderboards, on your gardener card and in friends lists. Names must not be offensive, hateful or misleading, must not impersonate any person or brand, and should not include personal information you do not want public. We may reject, filter or change names that break these rules.
Security. You are responsible for your sign-in provider account and for all activity under your Account. Notify us promptly at contact@pristntechnologies.com if you suspect unauthorized use.
One person, one account. Do not create accounts by automated means, keep several accounts to manipulate the leaderboards, or use another person's account without permission.

4. A license, not ownership

Garden Tiles is licensed to you, not sold, and so is everything you get in it.

4.1 The Game

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and play the Game on devices you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. If you got the Game from the Apple App Store, your use is also limited to what the Usage Rules in Apple's Media Services Terms and Conditions allow. Downloading the Game, or paying for anything in it, does not make you the owner of the Game or of any copy of it: Pristn Technologies LLC and its licensors keep all ownership, and we reserve all rights not expressly granted.

4.2 What you get when you buy

What you get. When you buy a seed pack, "No video ads" or "No ads at all", or spend seeds on a tile set, a table, a hat, a garden friend, a frame or help on a board, you get a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use it inside the Game, with your Account, for as long as we offer the Game.
What you don't get. You do not get ownership of, title to, or any property right in the Game, your Account, your progress, seeds, Virtual Items or one-time purchases, and none of them is a deposit, a balance or stored value. Words in the Game such as "buy", "purchase", "price", "owned" or "Yours" describe getting this license, not ownership.
No cash value, no transfers. Seeds and other Virtual Items exist only inside the Game. They have no monetary value, cannot be exchanged for money or anything else of value, and cannot be sold, traded, given or transferred to another person or account, or used outside the Service.
When the license ends. Your license to an item ends if you delete your Account, if your Account is terminated for a breach of these Terms (Section 18), if the purchase is refunded or reversed, or if we stop offering the Game. We will try to give reasonable notice in the Game before we stop offering the Game. Except where the law requires otherwise, the end of a license does not entitle you to a refund.
Your rights under the law. Nothing in this section takes away rights you have under the consumer-protection laws where you live.

5. Virtual Items and seeds

License, not property. Virtual Items are licensed to you, not sold, as Section 4.2 explains. They exist only inside the Game, have no monetary value, and cannot be exchanged for money, transferred to another person, or used outside the Service.
Earning and buying. You earn seeds by playing (clearing boards, the daily puzzle, achievements and optional rewarded videos), and you can buy seed packs through the app stores. Seeds are spent on Virtual Items such as tile sets, tables, hats, garden friends and frames, and on help during a board, such as an extra hint, shuffle or undo. Finishing a garden in the story also adds that garden's tile set and table to your collection.
Balance and economy changes. We may change the price, availability or effect of Virtual Items and in-game rewards at any time to keep the Game balanced and fun. We will not remove Virtual Items you have already bought with real money except as provided in these Terms.
Loss of Virtual Items. Virtual Items may be lost if you delete your Account, delete the Game without having connected Google Play Games or Apple, or if your Account is terminated for a breach of these Terms. Except where required by law, Virtual Items are not refundable, including when the Service is modified or discontinued.
Anti-fraud. Seeds or items obtained through bugs, exploits, unauthorized tools or fraud may be removed, and the related accounts may be suspended.

6. Purchases, billing, and refunds

Purchases through the app stores. All purchases are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play through their in-app purchase systems. Prices are shown in the Game in your local currency before you confirm. What a purchase gives you is the license described in Section 4.2. We do not receive or store your payment card or bank details.
Seed packs are consumable: the seeds are added to your balance when the purchase completes, are kept with your game progress, and are then spent in the Game. Unlike the one-time purchases, seed packs cannot be restored from the store, and they cannot be transferred to another account or recovered after account deletion.
No video ads and No ads at all are one-time purchases: you pay once, and the license lasts for as long as we offer the Game (Section 4.2). "No video ads" removes the videos shown between boards and makes Undo free and unlimited on every board; the small banner stays. "No ads at all" also removes the banner, with the same free undos. Optional rewarded videos remain available after either purchase, because they only play when you choose to watch one. A one-time purchase is kept with your game progress and is tied to the Apple or Google account you bought it with: you can restore it with Restore purchases in the shop on a device signed in to that store account, and Google Play also restores it automatically.
Refunds. Payments are generally non-refundable except where required by law. Because purchases are made through the app stores, refund and cancellation requests are handled under Apple's or Google's policies through their support channels. If a purchase is refunded, cancelled or charged back, we may remove the seeds or the benefit it gave. For users in jurisdictions with mandatory consumer-protection or cancellation rights, nothing in these Terms limits those rights.
No real-money value. Purchased seeds are Virtual Items under Section 5: they have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn or exchanged.

7. Advertising and rewarded videos

The Service is funded by advertising and may show a banner, videos between boards, and optional rewarded videos that you choose to watch in exchange for a reward such as seeds, an extra hint or shuffle, two more undos, or double the seeds a board gives. Ads are provided by third-party ad networks; we do not control and are not responsible for the content of third-party ads, and a reward requires the video to complete under the ad network's rules. Ad availability is not guaranteed; rewarded videos may sometimes be unavailable in your region or at a given moment. Our Privacy Policy describes the information ad partners process and your choices about personalized advertising.

8. The Garden Show, leaderboards, and fair play

How the Garden Show works. Each week a new series of boards begins, the same for every player in the same order. Points from the boards you clear are placed on the weekly and all-time leaderboards, where your player name, picture, frame, points and place are visible to other players.
Fair play. You agree not to cheat. This includes using bots, scripts, automation, modified game clients, memory editors, network manipulation, exploits, or any other unauthorized means to play, to alter results, or to gain Virtual Items or a place on a leaderboard.
Enforcement. We may investigate suspicious results and may remove points, reset places or leaderboards, remove accounts from leaderboards, revoke improperly obtained Virtual Items, and suspend or terminate accounts, with or without notice, to protect the integrity of the Game.
Adjustments. We may recalculate, reset or restructure leaderboards, series, scoring or rewards from time to time (for example, when fixing bugs or rebalancing). Leaderboard places confer no rights and no monetary value.

You can add friends with their player name and number, or by sharing an invite link from the Game's Friends screen. An invite link contains your player name with its number, so share it only with people you want to add you. Do not use social features to harass anyone, and do not share another person's name, number or invite link without their permission. You can remove a friend, decline a request or take back one you sent at any time.

10. Acceptable use

You agree not to, and not to allow anyone else to:

Use the Service for any unlawful, harmful, fraudulent or abusive purpose.
Cheat, exploit bugs, or use unauthorized third-party software that interacts with the Game (Section 8).
Upload viruses, malware or any code designed to disrupt or harm.
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other accounts or our systems, or interfere with or overload the Service.
Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code or game data, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law.
Use bots, scrapers or automated means to access the Service or collect data from it, including other players' names or gardener cards.
Resell, rent or commercially exploit the Service, or buy, sell or transfer Accounts or Virtual Items, without our written permission.
Circumvent any usage limit, reward limit, or security or anti-cheat feature.

We may investigate and take appropriate action, including suspending or terminating accounts, for any violation.

11. Third-party services

The Service relies on third parties, including Apple, Google, Unity Technologies (Unity Gaming Services and Unity LevelPlay), and the advertising partners described in our Privacy Policy, and may link to or interoperate with their services. We are not responsible for third-party services, and your use of them is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

12. Intellectual property

The Service, including its software, boards, story, characters, gardens, tile and table designs, art, sounds, logos, and the "Garden Tiles" name, is owned by Pristn Technologies LLC and protected by intellectual property laws. Music, sound effects, voices and fonts licensed from third parties are owned by their respective licensors, are used under license, and are made available to you only as part of the Game. Except for the license in Section 4, these Terms do not grant you any right in our or our licensors' intellectual property, and you may not extract, copy or redistribute the Game's art, music or audio on a standalone basis. You may not use our trademarks without our prior written permission. You may share ordinary screenshots and recordings of your own play for personal, non-commercial purposes.

13. Feedback

If you send us suggestions or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use it for any purpose without obligation to you.

14. Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains what information is handled when you play, including by our advertising partners, and the choices you have. By using the Service, you consent to that handling.

15. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT PROGRESS OR VIRTUAL ITEMS WILL NEVER BE LOST, THAT SYNC WILL NEVER FAIL, OR THAT ANY LEADERBOARD RESULT WILL BE PRESERVED. YOU USE THE SERVICE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you. In that case, our warranties are limited to the minimum extent permitted by law.

16. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PRISTN TECHNOLOGIES LLC AND ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, VIRTUAL ITEMS, OR OTHER TANGIBLE OR INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US THROUGH THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) TWENTY-FIVE U.S. DOLLARS (USD 25.00).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including mandatory rights granted by applicable consumer-protection law in your country of residence.

17. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Pristn Technologies LLC and its officers, members, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or any law or third-party right.

18. Suspension and termination

By you. You may stop using the Service at any time and may delete your Account from inside the Game, as described in our Privacy Policy.
By us. We may suspend or terminate your access, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms (including the fair-play rules), if required by law, or to protect the Service or other players. We may also discontinue the Service or any feature.
Effect. On termination, your license to use the Service, your license to Virtual Items and your license to one-time purchases end, and none of them is refunded except where the law requires. Sections that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution) survive.

19. Changes to the Service and these Terms

Garden Tiles is a live game: gardens, boards, modes, events, rewards, Virtual Items and features may be added, changed, rebalanced or removed over time. We may also modify these Terms. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and give reasonable notice, such as asking you to review and accept the updated Terms when you next open the Game. Changes take effect when posted, or on a later date we specify. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service.

20. Governing law and dispute resolution

20.1 Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska and applicable federal laws of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. This choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence.

20.2 Informal resolution

Before filing a claim, you agree to first contact us at info@pristntechnologies.com and try in good faith to resolve the dispute informally. Most concerns can be resolved this way.

20.3 Binding arbitration and class-action waiver (United States users)

This Section 20.3 applies to users located in the United States, to the extent permitted by law.

If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you and Pristn agree to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service through final and binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by a recognized arbitration provider under its consumer rules, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court. You and Pristn waive the right to a jury trial and to participate in a class, collective, or representative action. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing info@pristntechnologies.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. This Section does not apply where prohibited by law.

20.4 Courts and venue

For users outside the United States, or where arbitration does not apply, disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Nebraska, United States, except that consumers may bring claims in the courts of their country of residence where local law gives them that right, and we may bring claims in your country of residence where required.

21. Apple App Store: additional terms

If you download the Game from the Apple App Store, the following also applies, and these Terms are between you and Pristn only, not Apple:

Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the Game.
Apple is not responsible for any product warranties; to the extent any warranty is not effectively disclaimed, Apple may refund the purchase price (if any), and otherwise has no warranty obligation.
Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the Game, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, or consumer protection claims.
Apple is not responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, or discharge of any third-party intellectual property claim relating to the Game.
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

22. Google Play: additional terms

If you download the Game from Google Play, your use is also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service. To the extent of any conflict between these Terms and the Google Play Terms regarding your use of the Game obtained through Google Play, these Terms govern the relationship between you and Pristn, and the Google Play Terms govern your relationship with Google.

23. General

Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Pristn regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect, and the unenforceable provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
Force majeure. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
Notices. We may provide notices through the Game, or by posting on https://pristntechnologies.com/. You may contact us as set out below.
Language. These Terms are provided in English, the Game's language. If we provide a translation, the English version governs in case of conflict, except where your local law requires otherwise.
