Count Shift Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-08-04

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and the publisher of Count Shift ("we", "us", "our" — Valento Apps), for the mobile application distributed under the package com.valentoapps.countshift (the "App").

1. Acceptance of these Terms

By installing, opening, downloading, accessing, or playing Count Shift, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

If you do not agree to these Terms or the Privacy Policy, you must not install or use the App, and you should uninstall it.

If you use the App on behalf of another person (for example a child or dependent), you represent that you have authority to accept these Terms for them and that you remain responsible for their compliance.

Continued use after we publish updated Terms constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms (see section 15).

2. The service

Count Shift is a casual number-stride puzzle game. One swipe moves all pieces; each piece travels a different distance based on its count. Levels are generated on your device. Core play runs on your device.

Internet access may be used for Google Play updates and opening linked pages (such as these Terms). As of the date above, the App does not show in-app advertising.

Count Shift is entertainment software only. It is not educational certification, medical advice, financial advice, or professional advice of any kind. Puzzle difficulty and outcomes may vary by device performance and settings.

3. Eligibility and age (13+)

You must be at least 13 years old to use Count Shift.

By using the App you represent and warrant that:

you are at least 13 years of age, or
if you allow someone under 13 to access a device where Count Shift is installed, you are a parent or legal guardian and you accept full responsibility for that use.

We do not knowingly design or market Count Shift for children under 13. We are not responsible if a person under 13 uses the App without meeting these requirements, including where a parent, guardian, or other adult installs the App, shares a device, disables age controls, or otherwise permits that use.

Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising device use and Google Play purchases on devices used by minors.

If we learn that we hold information from a child under 13 in a way that violates applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to delete what we control (for example support emails). Contact support@valentoapps.com.

Where local law sets a higher digital-consent age than 13, you must meet that higher age to use the App.

4. Licence to use the App

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to install and use Count Shift on devices you own or control, solely for personal entertainment.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer (except to the limited extent mandatory law allows), or create derivative works from the App, except as expressly permitted by us or by applicable law.

5. Accounts and Google Play

Count Shift does not require a Valento Apps account for core gameplay.

Distribution, updates, device integrity checks, and any store billing are provided by Google Play and are also subject to Google's terms and policies. We are not responsible for Google Play outages, account issues, or store decisions outside our control.

6. Local data and your device

Progress and preferences are stored on your device. Uninstalling the App or clearing App data may permanently erase that information.

You are responsible for:

keeping your device secure,
any backups you choose to keep outside the App,
network charges incurred while updating the App or opening linked pages.

We are not liable for loss of local game data, corrupted saves, or device malfunction.

7. Virtual items

Any in-game progress, unlocks, or similar virtual items:

exist only inside Count Shift,
have no real-world cash value outside the App unless required by law,
may be modified, reset, or removed as part of balancing, bug fixes, or updates,
may be lost if you clear data or uninstall.

8. Advertising

As of the date above, Count Shift does not show third-party in-app ads. If advertising is added later, we will update these Terms and the Privacy Policy, and third-party ad networks will be subject to their own policies.

9. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

reverse engineer, cheat, exploit bugs for unfair advantage, or disrupt the App in ways that violate applicable law,
attempt to attack, overload, or misuse any related Valento Apps services,
use the App in violation of applicable law or Google Play policies,
misrepresent your age or identity to obtain access.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate access, or refuse support, where reasonably required to protect the App, users, our rights, or to comply with law or store policies.

10. Intellectual property

The Count Shift name, branding, game design, and App software are owned by us or our licensors. These Terms do not grant you rights to our trademarks except as needed to use the App.

11. Purchases

If the App offers paid downloads or in-app purchases through Google Play, those transactions are processed by Google. Refunds follow Google Play's refund policies and applicable law.

As of the date above, Count Shift is distributed without paid in-app purchases. This section still applies if store purchases are enabled later.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Count Shift is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement.

Without limiting the above, we do not warrant that:

the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components,
puzzle generation, scoring, or progression will behave identically on every device,
third-party services (including Google Play) will operate without interruption.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty disclaimers. In those places, disclaimers apply only to the extent permitted.

13. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

we are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages,
we are not liable for loss of data, profits, goodwill, device damage, third-party actions, or inability to use the App,
our total aggregate liability arising from or related to the App is limited to the greater of 50 EUR or the amount you paid us for the App in the twelve months before the claim (if any).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law (for example liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence where such exclusion is prohibited, or mandatory consumer rights).

You agree that these limitations are a reasonable allocation of risk and a fundamental basis of our providing the App.

14. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising out of your misuse of the App or your breach of these Terms, except to the extent caused by our wilful misconduct.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when the App or the law changes. The "Last updated" date is the source of truth. Material changes will be announced in the App or on our website when practical.

Continued use of the App after updated Terms take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the App and uninstall it.

16. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable to the publisher, without regard to conflict-of-law rules that would require another jurisdiction's law, except where mandatory consumer protection law in your country of residence applies and cannot be waived.

Courts in the publisher's jurisdiction have non-exclusive jurisdiction, subject to mandatory consumer venue rights.
