TERMS OF SERVICE

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. These Terms include a binding individual arbitration agreement and a class-action waiver (Section 20) that affect your legal rights. They require most disputes to be resolved by individual arbitration rather than in court, and waive your right to a jury trial and to participate in class actions. You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days as described in Section 20.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using TrendTrivia™ (the "App") or any related websites and services (together, the "Services"), operated by TrendTrivia LLC, an Indiana limited liability company ("we," "our," or "us"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (these "Terms"), including the arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in Section 20. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, access, or use the Services. You affirm that your electronic acceptance of these Terms has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature.

2. ELIGIBILITY

You must be at least 13 years of age to use TrendTrivia. If you are between 13 and 18 years of age (or the age of majority where you live), you may use the App only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms. By using the App, you represent and warrant that: (a) you meet these age requirements; (b) you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms; (c) you are not barred from using the Services under the laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction; and (d) you are not located in, and are not a national or resident of, any country or region subject to U.S. embargo or sanctions, and are not listed on any U.S. government restricted-party list.

3. ACCOUNT REGISTRATION

To access certain features, you must create an account. When creating an account, you agree to:

• Provide accurate and complete information and keep it current
• Choose an appropriate username that does not contain profanity, hate speech, or impersonate others
• Maintain the confidentiality and security of your account credentials
• Accept responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account
• Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account

You are limited to one account per person unless we expressly permit otherwise. We reserve the right to reclaim usernames, and to refuse, suspend, or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, in our sole discretion.

4. SUBSCRIPTIONS AND PAYMENTS

TrendTrivia offers both free and premium subscription tiers.

Free Tier: Includes Solo Play, Daily Challenge, Trending Now, and Challenge a Friend, with banner advertisements during gameplay.

Premium Subscription: Provides access to all game modes, removes advertisements, unlocks the global leaderboard, and includes weekly performance recaps. Available as monthly ($2.99/month) or annual ($29.99/year) plans, with pricing as displayed in the App at the time of purchase.

Subscriptions are sold, processed, and managed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, and are subject to their respective terms and payment policies. Subscriptions automatically renew for the same term and at the then-current price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. Your account will be charged for renewal within the 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription, and disable auto-renewal, through your device's app store settings. We may change subscription pricing and features prospectively; where required by law, we will provide advance notice and an opportunity to cancel.

5. REFUND POLICY

All subscription payments are processed by Apple or Google. Except where required by applicable law, all purchases are final and non-refundable. Refund requests must be submitted directly to the applicable app store; we do not process refunds directly. Please refer to Apple's refund policy or Google Play's refund policy for more information.

6. VIRTUAL ITEMS, XP, AND IN-GAME CONTENT

The App may include experience points ("XP"), levels, streaks, achievements, badges, rankings, and other virtual items or in-game content (collectively, "Virtual Items"). Virtual Items have no monetary value, are not real currency, and do not constitute property, a balance, or a banked credit in any account. Virtual Items are licensed, not sold, and are non-transferable, non-tradeable, and non-redeemable for cash or anything of value. You have no ownership or proprietary interest in any Virtual Items. We may manage, regulate, modify, remove, or eliminate Virtual Items at any time, with or without notice, and we have no liability for doing so. Game features that involve risking or "wagering" XP (such as Daily Doubles or Tower Climb) are provided solely for entertainment and do not constitute gambling, as no real money or item of monetary value is at stake or can be won.

7. ACCEPTABLE USE

You agree not to:

• Use the Services for any unlawful, fraudulent, or unauthorized purpose
• Cheat, exploit bugs, or use unauthorized tools to manipulate scores, XP, or leaderboard rankings
• Circumvent, disable, or interfere with advertising, premium gating, security, or rate-limiting features
• Harass, abuse, threaten, defame, or send inappropriate, infringing, or harmful content to other users through the challenge or any other system
• Create multiple accounts to manipulate the leaderboard, abuse referrals, or earn duplicate rewards
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity
• Attempt to access other users' accounts or data, or any non-public areas of the Services
• Infringe the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any person or entity
• Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law
• Use automated scripts, bots, scrapers, or other automated means to access, interact with, or collect data from the Services
• Introduce malware or any harmful code, or interfere with or disrupt the Services' servers, networks, or infrastructure

Violations may result in account suspension, termination, or a permanent ban, at our sole discretion, and may be reported to law enforcement.

8. USER CONTENT AND LICENSE

"User Content" means any content you submit or that is generated through your use of the Services, including your username, avatar selection, gameplay activity, challenge messages, and reported-question or suggestion submissions. You retain ownership of your User Content. By submitting User Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, store, use, reproduce, display, and distribute that User Content in connection with operating, providing, and promoting the Services.

You represent and warrant that you own or have all necessary rights to your User Content and that it does not violate these Terms or any law or third-party right. Your username, avatar, level, scores, achievements, and leaderboard rank are visible to other users, and by using the App you consent to this public display. We are not obligated to monitor User Content, but we may review, screen, or remove any User Content at any time, in our sole discretion, without notice.

9. FEEDBACK AND SUGGESTIONS

If you send us ideas, suggestions, feedback, or recommendations about the Services (including through the in-app suggestion feature), you agree that we may use them for any purpose, commercial or otherwise, without restriction, attribution, or compensation to you. You hereby assign to us all right, title, and interest in such feedback, or, to the extent any rights are not assignable, grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them. We are under no obligation to keep any feedback confidential.

10. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

All rights not expressly granted are reserved. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or create derivative works from any part of the Services without our prior written consent.

11. COPYRIGHT COMPLAINTS (DMCA)

We respect the intellectual property of others. If you believe that material available through the Services infringes your copyright, you may submit a written notice to our designated agent under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") containing: (a) your physical or electronic signature; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (c) identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to locate it; (d) your contact information; (e) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

We may remove allegedly infringing material, and we will, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of repeat infringers. If you believe material was removed in error, you may submit a counter-notification with the information required by the DMCA.

12. QUESTION CONTENT AND ACCURACY

TrendTrivia questions are created and compiled for entertainment and general educational purposes only, and are sourced from publicly available information and current events. While we strive for accuracy, we make no representation or warranty that questions, answers, or any other content are accurate, complete, current, or error-free, and nothing in the Services constitutes professional, legal, financial, medical, or other advice. You should not rely on the content for any decision. If you believe a question contains an error, please report it through the App's built-in reporting feature.

13. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS

The Services rely on and may contain links to third-party products, services, and websites, including Apple, Google, Supabase, RevenueCat, Google AdMob, and Firebase. We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services, content, or practices, and your use of them is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. Your dealings with third parties are solely between you and them, and we are not responsible for any loss or damage arising from those dealings.

14. PLATFORM TERMS (APPLE & GOOGLE)

If you download the App from the Apple App Store, you acknowledge and agree that: (a) these Terms are between you and TrendTrivia LLC only, not Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the App or its content; (b) Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App; (c) in the event the App fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any), and to the maximum extent permitted by law Apple has no other warranty obligation with respect to the App; (d) Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App, including product-liability, legal/regulatory, or intellectual-property claims; and (e) Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. If you download the App from Google Play, your use is also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service. You represent that you are not located in a region subject to embargo or listed on a prohibited-party list, as required by the applicable platform.

15. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, ACCURATE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DATA, SCORES, STREAKS, OR PROGRESS WILL NOT BE LOST. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

16. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TRENDTRIVIA LLC AND ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND AFFILIATES (THE "TRENDTRIVIA PARTIES") WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TRENDTRIVIA PARTIES' TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (a) THE TOTAL AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (b) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THESE LIMITATIONS ARE AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN AND ALLOCATE RISK BETWEEN US. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

17. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the TrendTrivia Parties from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the Services; (b) your User Content; (c) your violation of these Terms or any applicable law; or (d) your violation of any right of a third party. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim.

18. RELEASE

The Services include social features through which users interact. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release the TrendTrivia Parties from any claims, demands, and damages of every kind arising out of or related to disputes between you and other users, or the acts or omissions of third parties. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states: "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party."

19. TERMINATION

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Services ceases immediately, and we may delete your account and associated data, subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law. You may delete your account at any time through the App's account-deletion feature or by contacting us at support@trendtrivia.com. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 6, 8–18 and 20–24 — will survive.

20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION, BINDING ARBITRATION & CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Please read this section carefully — it affects your legal rights.

Informal resolution first. Before starting any arbitration, you agree to first contact us at support@trendtrivia.com and provide a written description of the dispute and your contact information, and to allow 60 days for good-faith efforts to resolve it informally.

Binding arbitration. If the dispute is not resolved, you and TrendTrivia LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration, administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this section. The arbitration may be conducted by telephone, video, written submissions, or in person in the county where you reside, at your election. The arbitrator will decide all issues, except that a court has authority over the enforceability, scope, and validity of the class-action waiver below.

Class action and jury waiver. You and we agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. You and we waive any right to a jury trial. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any form of class or representative proceeding.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect its intellectual property or to stop unauthorized use of the Services. Nothing here prevents either party from notifying a government agency of a dispute.

30-day opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by emailing support@trendtrivia.com with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" and your account email. Opting out will not affect any other part of these Terms. If any portion of this Section 20 (other than the class-action waiver) is found unenforceable, that portion will be severed; if the class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim will proceed in court.

21. LIMITATION ON TIME TO BRING A CLAIM

To the maximum extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or the Services must be filed within one (1) year after the claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred.

22. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs Section 20. To the extent any dispute is not subject to arbitration and is not brought in small-claims court, you agree that it will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Hamilton County, Indiana, or the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of, and venue in, those courts and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.

23. CHANGES TO THE SERVICES

We are continually improving the Services and may add, change, suspend, or discontinue any feature, game mode, or part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, and without liability to you. We do not guarantee that any particular feature or content will always be available.

24. GENERAL PROVISIONS

Entire agreement. These Terms and our Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede any prior agreements.

Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, outages, network or hosting-provider failures, labor disputes, or governmental actions.

Electronic communications. You consent to receive communications from us electronically, and agree that electronic notices satisfy any legal requirement that communications be in writing.

Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.

25. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above, and where appropriate we will provide additional notice through the App. Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
