FGL has developed several quality tools and features over the years to help developers and publishers come together to deliver quality games to millions of players across the world.  These Terms govern and affect your rights with FGL's services, mobile and website applications, software products and payment processing referral program (the "Service" or "Services" as further defined herein) which FGL provides.

 

BY ACCESSING ANY OF THE SITES, YOU AGREE TO ABIDE BY THESE TERMS. ACCESS OR USE OF A SITE FOLLOWING ANY CHANGE TO THE TERMS OF USE CONSTITUTES YOUR AGREEMENT TO THOSE CHANGES. IF AT ANY TIME YOU CHOOSE NOT TO ACCEPT THE TERMS OF USE THAT ARE IN EFFECT AT SUCH TIME, YOU SHOULD NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SITE.

1.   Acknowledgement and Acceptance of these Terms

Please read these Terms Agreement carefully. These Terms include FGL's Privacy Policy, and Enhance's Privacy Policy. You agree and understand that certain features of the Service may be subject to additional terms and conditions or registration requirements, such as our EasyLicense service and associated agreements, and other requirements further described in our FAQs (each a "Separate Agreement"). You agree to abide by the terms of any Separate Agreement between us, and you further agree that a violation of those terms while you are using the Service shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. Use of the Service is permitted only by individuals who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, use of the Service is not permitted by anyone under the age of 13. If you do not qualify, please do not use the Service.

2.   Account Registration

In order to use the Services, you are required to register with us and provide us with certain information ("Account Information") and must open an "Account".  You agree to provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself and your business, including an email address and password that you control, and you agree to not misrepresent your identity or your Account Information.

You agree that we may store and use the Account Information you provide for use in maintaining your Account. You may receive confirmation and other acknowledgement emails associated with your registration. You agree to keep your all Account Information updated, complete, and accurate.

1.      Fees for Services.

Registering an Account is free.  However, we do charge fees for certain services.  When you use a service that has a fee you have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. You are responsible for paying all fees and taxes associated with your use of the Service. We reserve the right to change our fees upon thirty (30) days' advance notice. You must agree to the change in fees to continue to use the Service. If you do not agree to the change you will need to notify us and we will close your Account. Payment terms for all invoiced amounts will be thirty (30) days from the date of invoice as long as your Account is current. All payments shall be in U.S. dollars. If you do not pay an invoice(s) when due, we may charge a late payment fee on the unpaid amounts equal to the lesser of: (i) 10% per annum, or (ii) the maximum legal rate, and we may suspend the Service without prior notice until we have received the Fees due.

We are not a payment card processor and as such we do not process payment card transactions. Payments are collected by Paypal and Moneybookers (Skrill) (collectively, the "Payment Processors").  We are not responsible for the performance of any Payment Processor. We collect, analyze, format, organize and relay information generated in connection with your payment processing to you and to processors. In so doing, we may use third parties to provide certain services accessible through the Site. Such services include, without limitation, payment processing services.  FGL does not control those third parties or their services, and you agree that we will not be liable to you in any way for your use of such services. These third parties may have their own terms of use and other policies. Paypal's terms are found here: https://www.paypal.com/.

You must comply with such terms and policies as well as these Terms when you use those services. You understand and acknowledge that our Payment Processors and not FGL, is the processor of payments made by you through the Site, and terms relating to your purchases are subject to Payment Processors terms. If any such terms or policies conflict with FGL's Terms, agreements or policies, you must comply with FGL's Terms, agreements or policies, as applicable.
