Battle of Mind

Terms of service

Effective 20 October 2026

These terms are an agreement between you and Rovos International W.L.L. (commercial registration 146421-1), Building 201, Road 505, Block 305, Manama Center, Kingdom of Bahrain ("we", "us"), for the Battle of Mind app. By using the app you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the app. Our privacy policy explains what data the app collects.

1. Who can play

You must be at least 13 years old. If you are under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you.

2. Your account

You can play as a guest or create an account. Keep your password private; you are responsible for what happens on your account. Give a real email address, and use one account per person. A guest's progress is tied to the phone and can be lost if the app's data is cleared.

3. Fair play and conduct

When you play online, in rated games or in tournaments, you must not:

• get help from a chess engine, another person or any other outside source during a game;
• use more than one account, or arrange results, to change ratings or tournament outcomes;
• choose a display name that is offensive, hateful, sexual, impersonates someone, or includes personal information;
• harass, threaten or abuse other players;
• exploit bugs, or interfere with the app or our servers, including through automated tools, overloading them, or reverse engineering them.

4. What we can do about it

We may change or remove a display name, remove games, correct or reset ratings, end tournaments, and suspend or ban players, accounts, devices or network addresses, with or without notice, when we believe these terms were broken. If you think we got it wrong, email support@rovosinternational.com.

5. Ratings, leaderboards and tournaments

Ratings, leaderboards and tournaments are for fun. They have no money value, there are no prizes, and we may recalculate or reset them. A player who hosts a tournament runs it and is responsible for how they run it; we may close any tournament.

6. Ads and purchases

The app is free and shows ads. The one thing for sale is "Remove all ads": a one-time purchase, made through Google Play at the price shown there, which removes the ads for your account on every phone you sign in to. You need an account to buy it. Payments, refunds and cancellations are handled by Google Play under its own terms. If you delete your account, the purchase is no longer attached to it; it stays with your Google Play account and can be restored to a new account of yours. A ban under section 4 does not entitle you to a refund from us.

7. Availability and changes

Online play depends on our servers and may be unavailable at times, for example during maintenance or when usage limits are reached. We may change, add or remove features, or stop offering the app, at any time.

8. Our content and your licence

The app, its design, art and code belong to us or to the people who licensed them to us; the licences are listed in the app under Settings > Licences. We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use the app for your own non-commercial play. You may not copy, sell or modify the app.

9. Your games

You keep your rights in what you create, but you allow us to store, show and replay your display name and the games you play online, including to spectators and on leaderboards, for as long as we keep them under the privacy policy.

10. Disclaimer

The app is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we make no promises that it will be uninterrupted, error-free or suitable for any purpose.

11. Limit of liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for lost data, ratings or progress, and our total liability to you is limited to USD 50 or what you paid us in the past 12 months, whichever is more. Nothing in these terms limits a liability that the law does not allow to be limited.

12. Ending these terms

You can stop using the app and delete your account at any time (Settings > Account > Delete account). We may suspend or end your access under section 4.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Bahrain, and disputes go to the courts of Manama, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring them in your local courts.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will change the effective date above and, for important changes, tell you in the app. If you keep using the app after that, you accept the new terms.
