End User License Agreement
Last updated 20 August 2026
This EULA is the licence for the Shiplanet game software: what you may and may not do with it, and the terms the app stores require. It works alongside our Terms of Service (which govern the game service and community) and our Privacy Policy.
1. This agreement and what it covers
This End User License Agreement (the "EULA") is a binding agreement between you and Shiplanet ("we", "us", "our") that governs your licence to install and use the Shiplanet game software and its updates (the "Software"). It works together with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy: the Terms of Service govern your use of the game service and community, this EULA governs your use of the Software itself, and where a term is specific to the Software this EULA controls.
By downloading, installing, or using the Software, or by accepting the Terms of Service, you agree to this EULA. If you do not agree, do not install or use the Software. If you obtained the Software through an app store or platform, the additional terms in the "App store and platform terms" section below also apply.
2. Licence we grant you
Subject to this EULA and the Terms of Service, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable licence to download and install one copy of the Software on a device you own or control, and to run it for your own non-commercial entertainment. Where you obtained the Software from an app store, this licence is also subject to that store's usage rules, which may allow use across devices linked to your account or through family sharing.
3. Ownership and reserved rights
The Software is licensed to you, not sold. We and our licensors own the Software and the Service, including all software, code, art, text, sounds, characters, names, logos, and overall look and feel, and all intellectual property rights in them. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you in this EULA. Your licence gives you no ownership of the Software or of any in-game items, which are covered by the "Virtual items" section of the Terms of Service.
The Software may include third-party or open-source components provided under their own licences. Those licences continue to apply to those components, and where they grant you rights or impose conditions that differ from this EULA, they govern for that component. We make any required notices for such components available on request.
4. What you may not do with the Software
Except as this EULA or applicable law expressly allows, you may not:
- copy, modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Software;
- distribute, sell, rent, lease, lend, sublicense, or otherwise transfer the Software or your licence to it;
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Software, or otherwise attempt to derive or extract its source code, except to the limited extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
- remove, disable, or circumvent any security, access-control, ownership, moderation, rate-limit, or anti-cheat mechanism, or use bots, automation, or modified or unofficial clients to gain an advantage;
- use the Software to build a competing product, or use our names, logos, or branding without our prior written permission;
- export or re-export the Software in violation of any applicable export-control or sanctions laws; or
- use the Software in violation of any applicable law or to infringe anyone's rights.
Anti-cheat and monitoring. To protect fair play, the Software and our servers may detect the use of prohibited tools such as bots, trainers, or modified clients, and may report limited technical information about that detection to us (for example your account identifier, network address, and details of what was detected). If prohibited tools are detected, we may end this licence and your access to the Service. This is described further in our Privacy Policy.
5. App store and platform terms
If you obtained the Software from a third-party app store or platform, your use is also subject to that platform's terms, and the following applies to that version of the Software.
Apple App Store. These terms apply where you obtain the Software from the Apple App Store, and you acknowledge and agree that:
- This EULA is concluded between you and Shiplanet only, and not with Apple. Shiplanet, not Apple, is solely responsible for the Software and its content.
- Apple grants you no licence to use the Software other than as permitted by the App Store Usage Rules, and your licence to use the Software is limited to a non-transferable licence to use it on any Apple-branded products that you own or control, as those Usage Rules allow.
- Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services for the Software. Any maintenance or support is our responsibility.
- Shiplanet, not Apple, is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. If the Software fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) you paid for the Software; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the Software.
- Shiplanet, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the Software or your possession or use of it, including product-liability claims, any claim that the Software fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, claims under consumer-protection or similar law, and claims arising under privacy law.
- In the event of a third-party claim that the Software or your use of it infringes that party's intellectual property rights, Shiplanet, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement, and discharge of that claim.
- You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- You must comply with any applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the Software.
- Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this EULA, and upon your acceptance they will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this EULA against you as a third-party beneficiary.
- Questions, complaints, or claims about the Software should be directed to Shiplanet at [email protected].
Google Play and other platforms. Where you obtain the Software from Google Play or another platform, your use is also governed by that platform's terms of service and usage rules. Where those required platform terms conflict with this EULA for that version of the Software, the platform's minimum required terms prevail for that platform only.
6. Connectivity, updates, and changes to the Software
Connectivity and device requirements. Shiplanet is an online game. To use the Software you need a compatible device and an internet connection, and you are responsible for any data or carrier charges. Some features require an account. The quality and availability of the Software can depend on your device and network, and it may not run on every device or through every carrier or network provider.
The Software is in active development. We may provide updates, patches, or new versions, and we may add, change, or remove features. You agree that the Software may download and install updates automatically, that some updates may be required for the Software to keep working with the Service, and that we may stop supporting older versions once an update is available. This EULA covers any update we provide unless that update comes with its own terms.
7. Termination of this licence
This licence lasts until terminated. It ends automatically if you breach this EULA or the Terms of Service, and we may suspend or terminate it as described in the Terms of Service. On termination you must stop using the Software and remove it from your devices. The sections on ownership, restrictions, warranties and liability, and governing law survive termination.
8. Warranties and liability
The Software is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind to the maximum extent permitted by law. The disclaimers of warranties and the limitations of liability in our Terms of Service apply equally to this EULA and to your use of the Software, and are incorporated here by reference. Nothing in this EULA limits any rights you have under mandatory consumer law that cannot be waived, and for the Apple App Store version the warranty-refund term in the section above also applies.
9. Governing law, changes, and contact
This EULA is governed by the laws of Türkiye, on the same basis and subject to the same consumer protections set out in the "Governing law and disputes" section of our Terms of Service. We may update this EULA as the Software develops; when a change is material we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, take reasonable steps to notify you, and your continued use of the Software after a change means you accept it.
Questions or legal notices about this EULA can be sent through our contact page or to [email protected].
