Advertising
Kitten and its licensors may display advertisements and other information in proximity to your User Content. You are not entitled to any form of compensation for these advertisements. The presentation, method, and scope of such advertising may be altered without prior notification to you.
User Licenses
a) Grant of License. In accordance with these Terms, Kitten grants you a non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the compiled code version of the Services for a single Kitten Account for personal, non-commercial purposes. Kitten does not guarantee that the Services will be compatible with your web browser and/or mobile device at all times.
b) Limitations. You are prohibited from: (i) altering, disassembling, decompiling, or reverse-engineering the Services, unless such restrictions are explicitly prohibited by law; (ii) renting, leasing, lending, reselling, sublicensing, distributing, or otherwise transferring the Services to any third party or using the Services to provide time-sharing or similar services to any third party; (iii) duplicating the Services; (iv) removing, circumventing, disabling, damaging, or otherwise interfering with security features of the Services, features that prevent or restrict the use or copying of any content accessible through the Services, or features that enforce limitations on the use of the Services; or (v) erasing copyright and other proprietary rights notices from the Services.
c) Updates. You recognize that Kitten may periodically release updated versions of the Services and may automatically electronically update the version of the Services you are using. You consent to such automatic updates and agree that these Terms will govern all such upgrades. You acknowledge that Kitten will not be held liable to you for any modifications made.
d) Rights Retained. The license granted under these Terms does not constitute a sale of the Services or any copy thereof, and Kitten or its third-party partners or suppliers retain all rights, titles, and interests in the Services (and any copies thereof). Any attempt by you to transfer any rights, duties, or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided for in these Terms, is null and void. Kitten reserves all rights not expressly granted under these Terms.
e) App Distribution Platforms. You understand and agree that the availability of the Services is contingent upon the third parties from which you obtain the Services, such as Google Play or the Apple App Store (collectively "App Stores"). You acknowledge that these Terms are solely between you and Kitten, not with the App Stores, and that each App Store may have its own terms and conditions to which you must agree before downloading the Services from it. You agree to adhere to, and your license to use the Services is subject to, all applicable terms and conditions of the respective App Store.
Paid Services
a) Overview. Kitten offers a variety of paid Services. Firstly, you have the option to buy virtual currency, known as "Kitten Coins," for use within the Services as detailed in the Kitten Software. Additionally, you may occasionally earn Kitten Coins or other virtual items by completing certain activities, such as downloading third-party apps. Kitten Coins and these virtual items are collectively known as "Virtual Goods." Secondly, you have the opportunity to purchase a Subscription that grants access to premium features and enhancements of the Services, as described in the Kitten Software. (We may introduce the second type of paid service at a later time when it seems appropriate.)
Kitten does not handle payments or credit card information directly. Paid Services can be purchased through a Third Party Account, such as Google Play or Apple iTunes. When you buy any of our fee-based Services ("Subscription Fees"), including Virtual Goods, Kitten Coins, and/or a Subscription (collectively, "Paid Services"), you authorize Kitten to collect the current iTunes unique transaction IDs and receipts data. Subscription Fees for these Paid Services will be processed through your Third Party Account. Please note that Kitten does not control the terms and conditions of Third Party Accounts, so please review them carefully. You also agree to pay the Subscription Fees for the Paid Services (including periodic fees as specified in the Kitten Software and all related taxes). All payments to Kitten for the use and access to the Services, including Subscription Fees for Paid Services, are final, and all charges are nonrefundable.
For more details on the purchase of Virtual Goods and the use of virtual currency, please refer to our Virtual Goods and Currency Terms of Use. Typically, our virtual currency can be used to buy certain features or Virtual Goods related to the Services. Any virtual currency you receive as a promotion is subject to our Virtual Goods and Currency Terms of Use. We reserve the right to increase or change the fees for any Paid Services in the Services at any time. We also reserve the right to introduce new fees for accessing parts of the Services or the entire Services upon notifying you by posting such changes on the Kitten Software.
b) Automatic Renewal of Subscriptions. When you subscribe through a Third Party Account and do not cancel before the end of the term, your subscription will continue indefinitely until you cancel it. After your initial subscription period and any subsequent periods, your subscription will automatically renew for another equivalent term at the price you agreed to when subscribing. You agree to this automatic renewal feature for your Kitten Account. You acknowledge that your Third Party Account will be charged automatically for these subscription fees, including taxes, upon each renewal. You understand that your subscription is subject to automatic renewals, and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges through a Third Party Account based on this feature without further authorization and without further notice, except as required by law.
c) Cancelling Subscriptions. When you subscribe through a Third Party Account, you must cancel through that third party, not Kitten, in accordance with their terms and conditions. Cancellations take effect in the next billing period when payment is due. If you cancel, your subscription benefits continue until the end of the current term, but your subscription will not renew after that term. You will not receive a prorated refund for any part of the subscription fees paid for the current term.
Complimentary Trials and Special Offers
Occasionally, we might introduce complimentary trials or other special offers (a "Promotion"). For instance, we could provide Promotions that grant a free Subscription to our Services for a specified duration. To prevent being charged automatically for Subscription Fees, you must cancel your subscription before the Promotion period ends, following the procedures outlined in Section.
17. In another scenario, we might offer our virtual currency at no cost. Any such virtual currency is governed by the terms of our Virtual Goods and Currency Terms of Use. Additional Terms relevant to specific Promotions may be detailed within the Kitten Software.
Amendments to These Terms
We hold the right, at our discretion, to alter, modify, add to, or remove parts of the terms and conditions included in these Terms, including any policies or guidelines related to the Services. Unless otherwise noted, any such changes will take effect immediately upon the updated version being published on the Services, and your continued use of the Services after such publication will indicate your acceptance of these changes. You should periodically review the Terms and any incorporated policies and documents to stay informed about the terms and conditions governing your use of the Services. The "last updated" date will always be displayed at the top of the Terms. Should you not agree with the revised Terms, you must cease using the Services. For any inquiries regarding these Terms, please reach out to us via email at the contact information provided below. These modifications will apply immediately to both new and existing Users of the Services.
Disclaimers

Consequently, Kitten disclaims all liability for your interactions with other users and for any identity theft or misuse of your identity or information.
Kitten does not: (i) ensure the precision, exhaustiveness, or utility of any information on the Services or the outcomes of your use of the Services; (ii) take on, support, or accept responsibility for the actions of any users or the accuracy and reliability of any views, advice, or statements made by parties other than Kitten.

Liability Constraints and Indemnification
You hereby relinquish and agree not to bring any claims or allegations against Kitten, its affiliates or subsidiaries, their sponsors, contractors, advertisers, vendors, or other partners, any successors or assigns, or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, or employees (collectively, the "Released Parties") related to your use of the Services or Proprietary Materials. This includes, but is not limited to, claims or allegations regarding alleged infringement of proprietary rights, alleged inaccuracy of User Content, or allegations that any Released Party should indemnify, defend, or hold you or any third party harmless from any claim or allegation arising from your use of the Services. Your utilization of the Services and Proprietary Materials is entirely at your own risk.
Without limiting the foregoing, neither Kitten nor any other Released Party will be liable to you for any direct, special, indirect, exemplary, consequential, or punitive damages, or any other form of damages, including but not limited to loss of use, loss of profits, loss of data, loss of goodwill, intangible losses, or other economic damages, whether in contract action, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, arising from or related to your use of the Services or any Proprietary Materials. This includes damages caused by or resulting from: (i) your use or inability to use the Services or any Proprietary Materials; (ii) any third party claims that your use of the Services or Proprietary Materials infringes upon any third party's intellectual property or privacy rights; (iii) any failure in the performance of the Services or any Proprietary Materials, related to errors, omissions, interruptions, defects, delays, deletion of files or emails, computer viruses, or any performance failure (whether or not resulting from force majeure, communication failure, theft, destruction, or unauthorized access to Kitten's or any other Released Party's records, programs, or services); (iv) any damages arising from communications or transactions with other Users of the Services, whether through blogs or otherwise, or persons you meet through the Services; or (v) any other matters related to the Services, Proprietary Materials, any User Submissions, based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, fundamental breach, failure of essential purpose, or otherwise, whether or not Kitten had knowledge, actual or constructive, that you might incur such damages.
In no case will the total liability of Kitten or the Released Parties arising from or related to these Terms or from the use of or inability to use the Services or Proprietary Materials exceed the amount you have paid to Kitten for the use of the Services and Proprietary Materials. The limitations of damages mentioned above are fundamental elements of the agreement between Kitten and you.
You shall fully defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Kitten and the other Released Parties from any losses, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including legal fees), claims, and proceedings arising from your use (or the use by any person to whom you have given access to your Kitten Account) of the Services, provision of User Content and Proprietary Materials, including any claims made by any person that any of your User Content infringes the rights, including intellectual property rights, of any third party.
20.Resolution of Disputes
Unless otherwise restricted by law, any dispute, controversy, or claim—whether based in contract, tort, statutory or regulatory provisions, or otherwise, and whether occurring before, at present, or in the future—concerning these Terms, the Services, User Content, or related oral or written statements, advertisements, or promotions concerning these Terms or the Services, or the relationships that arise from these Terms, the Kitten Software, the Kitten Site, the Services, User Content, or posts (collectively referred to as a "Dispute"), shall be submitted to and resolved by a single arbitrator, excluding the courts, in accordance with the Hong Kong Arbitration Law.
You agree, to the extent permitted by law, to indemnify, defend, and hold Kitten, our affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, agents, and employees harmless from and against any and all complaints, demands, claims, damages, losses, costs, liabilities, and expenses—including attorney’s fees—that relate to, arise from, or are in any way connected with your use of the Service, your Content, or your violation of this Agreement.
21.Termination of Service
These Terms become effective upon your first use of the Services and continue until terminated as outlined herein.
a) Termination by Kitten. Regardless of any other provision in these Terms, Kitten retains the right to suspend, disable, deactivate, or terminate your Kitten Account and your access to the Services at any time, for any reason, without explanation and without prior notice to you (including, but not limited to, blocking Users from certain IP addresses). We also reserve the right to remove or block access to your Kitten Account information, User Content, or data from the Services and any other records at any time, at our sole discretion. If we determine that your access to any of the Services is terminated, blocked, deactivated, removed, or suspended at any time, for any reason, without explanation and without notice or for cause, such as due to any breach or violation of these Terms, flagged conduct or content, third party complaints, or infringement of the intellectual property rights of others, you agree that all fees then paid to Kitten by you will be nonrefundable.
b) Termination by You. You have the option to deactivate or delete your Kitten Account at any time by navigating to "My Profile>Settings" and selecting Deactivate Account or Delete Account, or by contacting our customer support team at kitten@qtdance.com
Deactivating your account does not cancel your subscription. You will need to manage your in-app purchases through your device platform (e.g., iTunes, Google Play) to prevent additional charges.
For account deletion:
To delete your account, you must do so directly within our app. Please be aware that you will permanently lose your matches, messages, and other information associated with your account.
Log into our app (if you've deleted the app, you'll need to download it again)
Tap the profile icon at the bottom of the main screen
Go to "Settings"
Scroll down and select "Delete Account"
Deleting the Kitten app does not delete your account. Deleting your account does not cancel your subscription. You will need to manage your in-app purchases through your device platform (e.g., iTunes, Google Play) to avoid additional charges.
If you wish to use our app again, you will need to create a new account. If you log in to Kitten again after deleting your account, a new account will be created.
c) Surviving Provisions. Upon any termination, discontinuation, or cancellation of the Services or your Kitten Account, all provisions of these Terms that by their nature are intended to survive will survive, including, without limitation, Sections regarding ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability, and dispute resolution provisions.
22.Additional Provisions
You are not permitted to transfer or assign these Terms or any rights and licenses granted under them, but Kitten retains the right to assign them without limitation. Any attempt to do so in contravention of this clause shall be considered null and void. Should any provision, or part thereof, within these Terms be deemed illegal, void, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified and interpreted to achieve its intended purpose to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The absence of enforcement by Kitten of any right or provision in these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
23.Language of the Terms
The official language of these Terms is English. The English version of these Terms shall supersede and govern your relationship with Kitten.
