These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your download, installation, access to and use of the mobile game Bimka online crash racing (the “App” or the “Service”) provided by Stepa Mobile FZE LLC (“Stepa Mobile”, “we”, “us” or “our”). The App is a free, advertising-supported racing game distributed through Google Play, and it includes online multiplayer features. Please read these Terms carefully before using the App. By downloading, installing, accessing or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the App.
1. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms
These Terms form a binding agreement between you and Stepa Mobile and apply to all users of the App worldwide. By downloading, installing, accessing or using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you are using the App on behalf of another person, you represent that you have the authority to accept these Terms on their behalf. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must stop using the App and uninstall it from your device.
2. About the App and the Provider
The App is developed and provided by Stepa Mobile FZE LLC, a company established in the United Arab Emirates. The App is a mobile game distributed through the Google Play store and is offered free of charge, with its development and operation supported primarily by advertising. The App is provided for your personal entertainment on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Our contact details are provided at the end of these Terms in the “Contact Us” section.
3. Eligibility and Age Requirements
You must be at least 13 years old, or the higher minimum age required in your country, to use the App, and if you are below the age of majority where you live, you must have the consent of a parent or legal guardian. The App is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 13. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements and that you are legally permitted to use the App under the laws applicable to you. Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising the use of the App by anyone in their care.
4. Licence to Use the App
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable licence to download and install one copy of the App on an Android device that you own or control, and to use the App for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. This licence is also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service and any other rules that apply to applications obtained through Google Play. All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by us and our licensors.
5. The App Is Free and Advertising-Supported
The App is made available to you free of charge and is funded primarily through advertising. By using the App, you acknowledge and agree that advertisements are an integral part of the Service and that we and our advertising partners may display advertising to you as described in our Privacy Policy. Advertisements may be personalised or non-personalised depending on your region and your privacy choices. We may change the format, frequency or placement of advertising at any time, and we may add, remove or modify features and monetisation methods as the App evolves.
6. In-App Purchases and Virtual Items
The App may, now or in the future, offer optional in-app purchases – such as the removal or reduction of advertising, in-game currency, or other virtual items or features. Where in-app purchases are offered, they are processed by Google through Google Play billing using the payment method associated with your Google account, and we do not receive or store your full payment details. Prices are displayed before you confirm a purchase and may vary by country and over time. Any virtual items or in-game currency you obtain are licensed to you for use within the App only; they have no monetary value, cannot be exchanged for real money or transferred outside the App, and are non-refundable except where required by applicable law. Refunds for in-app purchases are handled by Google in accordance with the Google Play refund policies, although you may also contact us and we will try to help.
7. User Responsibilities and Acceptable Use
You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You are responsible for your own use of the App, for any device and network you use to access it, and for complying with all laws, rules and regulations that apply to you. You agree not to use the App in any way that could damage, disable, overburden or impair it, or interfere with any other party’s use of the App, and not to attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the App, its systems or its networks.
8. Prohibited Conduct
When using the App, you agree that you will not: (a) use the App for any unlawful, fraudulent or harmful purpose; (b) copy, modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any part of the App, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law; (c) remove, obscure or alter any proprietary notices; (d) use cheats, automation software, bots, hacks, mods or any unauthorised third-party software to modify or interfere with the App or the gameplay; (e) attempt to circumvent, disable or interfere with security-related features of the App, or features that restrict use or protect content, including any advertising or purchase mechanisms; (f) exploit bugs or glitches to gain an unfair advantage or to obtain virtual items without authorisation, or otherwise breach the fair-play rules set out below; or (g) resell, sublicense, rent, lease or otherwise commercially exploit the App without our written permission.
9. Online Multiplayer Features
The App offers online multiplayer features that let you race against other players, appear on leaderboards, and play with friends by joining or inviting others to a room. Use of these features requires an internet connection, and you are responsible for any data charges from your mobile operator. Online features depend on network conditions and on our game servers, and we do not guarantee that they will always be available, uninterrupted, lag-free or error-free. We may add, change, suspend, limit or discontinue online features, reset or recalculate leaderboards, or end a season at any time, including where necessary to maintain fair play or the integrity of the game.
10. Nicknames and Conduct Towards Other Players
To take part in the online features you choose a nickname, or display name, which is visible to other players together with your race results and leaderboard position. You are responsible for the nickname you choose. You agree not to choose a nickname that is unlawful, offensive, obscene, hateful, harassing, deceptive, that impersonates another person, that infringes anyone's rights, or that contains personal information about you or anyone else. We may refuse, change or remove any nickname that we reasonably consider inappropriate or in breach of these Terms, and we may restrict your access to the online features if you misuse them. When playing with others, you agree to behave respectfully, not to harass or disrupt other players, and not to interfere with their enjoyment of the game.
11. Fair Play and Anti-Cheating
Because the App has competitive online features, fair play is essential. You agree not to cheat or gain an unfair advantage by any means, including by using bots, automation, hacks, mods, modified clients, speed manipulation, exploits or any unauthorised third-party software, by tampering with game data or network traffic, by manipulating matchmaking or leaderboards, or by exploiting bugs or glitches. We may use technical measures to detect cheating and unfair play. If we reasonably believe that you have cheated or otherwise violated this section, we may remove your scores and leaderboard entries, reset your progress, and restrict, suspend or terminate your access to the online features or to the App, without notice and without liability to you.
12. Game Progress and Data
Your game progress, settings and similar data may be stored locally on your device and, where a feature provides it, may be associated with platform services. We do not guarantee that game progress will be preserved, backed up or recoverable, and progress may be lost if you uninstall the App, change or reset your device, or clear the App’s data. You are responsible for any backup mechanisms offered by your device or platform. We are not liable for any loss of progress, virtual items or in-game currency, except to the extent required by applicable law.
13. Intellectual Property Rights
The App and all of its contents that are provided by us – including its software, code, design, artwork, characters, graphics, audio, text, layout, logos and other materials – are owned by Stepa Mobile or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws. Except for the limited licence expressly granted in these Terms, nothing in these Terms transfers to you any right, title or interest in the App or its contents. You agree not to use our intellectual property without our prior written permission.
14. Trademarks
“Stepa Mobile” and any associated logos and product names, as well as the name and branding of the App, are trademarks or trade names of Stepa Mobile or its affiliates. Nothing in the App or these Terms grants you any right to use any trademark, logo or trade name of Stepa Mobile, Google or any third party without the prior written permission of the owner.
15. Feedback and Submissions
If you send us feedback, suggestions, ideas or reports relating to the App, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual and irrevocable licence to use, reproduce, modify, publish and otherwise exploit that feedback for any purpose, without any obligation or compensation to you. You represent that you have the right to provide such feedback and that it does not infringe the rights of any third party or violate any law. We are free to use feedback without restriction and are under no obligation to keep it confidential.
16. Third-Party Services, Advertising and Links
The App integrates and relies on third-party services, software development kits and platforms, including advertising, analytics, attribution, crash-reporting and messaging services, and it may display advertisements or contain links that open third-party websites, applications, stores or offers. These third-party services and destinations are governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for them or for any content, product or service available through them. Your interaction with any advertiser or third party, including any purchase or correspondence, is solely between you and that third party. Categories of the third-party providers we use are described in our Privacy Policy.
17. Privacy
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we and our partners collect, use and share information in connection with the App. By using the App, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference and forms part of your agreement with us.
18. App Updates and Availability
We may from time to time release updates, upgrades, patches or new versions of the App, and your device may be configured to download and install them automatically. Some updates may be required for the App to continue functioning properly, and certain features may not work if you do not install them. We do not guarantee that the App, or any particular feature, will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free or compatible with your device or operating system, and we may modify system requirements over time.
19. Modifications to the Service
We reserve the right, at any time and without liability, to modify, suspend or discontinue the App or any feature, content or part of it, temporarily or permanently, with or without notice. We may also impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the App. You agree that we will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuation of the App or any part of it, subject to any rights you may have under applicable law.
20. Disclaimers and “As Is”
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the App and all content and services provided through it are supplied on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will meet your requirements, that it will be compatible with your device, or that it will be secure, uninterrupted or free of errors, viruses or other harmful components. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.
21. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Stepa Mobile, its affiliates, or its directors, officers, employees, agents or licensors be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, game progress or virtual items, arising out of or relating to your use of, or inability to use, the App, whether based on warranty, contract, tort or any other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms will not exceed the greater of the total amount you actually paid, if any, in connection with the App in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the liability, or ten United States dollars (USD 10). Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
22. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Stepa Mobile and its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or relating to your use or misuse of the App, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any right of any third party.
23. Suspension and Termination
These Terms remain in effect for as long as you use the App. We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe that you have violated these Terms or applicable law, or to protect the App, our users or third parties, or for any other legitimate reason. You may stop using the App at any time and may terminate these Terms by uninstalling the App from your device. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination – including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification and governing law – will survive.
24. Export Controls and Sanctions
You agree to comply with all applicable export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations. You represent that you are not located in, and are not a national of or ordinarily resident in, any country or territory subject to comprehensive government sanctions, and that you are not otherwise prohibited from receiving the App under applicable law. You agree not to use or export the App in violation of any applicable export control or sanctions laws.
25. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Arab Emirates, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, unless mandatory local consumer-protection laws in your country of residence provide otherwise. Subject to any mandatory rights you have as a consumer to bring proceedings in your local courts, you agree that the competent courts located in the United Arab Emirates will have jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms.
26. Dispute Resolution
If you have any concern or dispute about the App, we encourage you to contact us first using the details at the end of these Terms so that we can try to resolve it informally. Many issues can be resolved quickly and to your satisfaction this way. Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer under the mandatory laws of your country of residence, including any right you may have to bring a claim in your local courts or before a competent consumer authority.
27. Google Play Terms
Because the App is distributed through Google Play, your download and use of the App are also subject to the Google Play Terms of Service and the applicable policies of Google. These Terms are concluded between you and Stepa Mobile only, and not with Google, and Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the App or its content. Any in-app purchases are processed by Google through Google Play billing and are subject to Google’s applicable terms and payment and refund policies. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Google Play Terms of Service with respect to your use of Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service will govern that relationship.
28. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in the App, in our practices, or in legal requirements. When we make changes, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and post the updated Terms in the same location. If the changes are material, we may provide additional notice as appropriate. Your continued use of the App after the updated Terms take effect constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the App.
29. Severability and Waiver
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or, if it cannot be so modified, will be severed, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of that right or provision, and no waiver will be effective unless made in writing.
30. Entire Agreement and Assignment
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional terms that apply to specific features or purchases, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements between you and us relating to it. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or any of your rights or obligations under them, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, to any affiliate or successor, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganisation or sale of assets.
31. Force Majeure
We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performing, any of our obligations under these Terms that is caused by events outside our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, epidemics or pandemics, war, terrorism, civil unrest, governmental action, labour disputes, failures of telecommunications or internet networks, power failures, or failures or interruptions of third-party services and platforms, including Google Play.
