Terms of Use

Last updated: September 3, 2026 · Hrvatska verzija

These Terms of Use are an agreement between you and INTELEKTUALCICI, obrt za računalno programiranje i usluge, vl. Petar Barać, Čitluk, Croatia ("we", "us"; full details in section 16), the developer of Cardarena. By installing or using the app on Android or iOS you agree to them, together with our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the app. Nothing in these Terms limits the rights you have as a consumer under the law of the country where you live.

1. Eligibility, Safety and Your Responsibility

• You must be at least 16 years old to use Cardarena. By creating a profile you confirm that you meet this requirement and that the age you enter is true. If you are under 18, you need your parent's or guardian's permission to use the app and to make any purchase in it.
• The app contains party-game content - truths, dares, duels, group games and rules - some of which refers to alcohol, flirting or adult themes. If any player at a table is under 18, that content is excluded for the whole table. The app is intended for players aged 16 and over.
• Every card can be refused, always. Refusing has consequences only inside the game. If a card is unsafe, illegal, unwelcome to someone, or simply more than you want to do, refuse it.
• You decide what you actually do, and you are responsible for it. Cards are written by players and dealt automatically. The app knows nothing about where you are, how you feel, who is with you, or what is legal there.
• Never, because of a card:
  • hurt yourself or anyone else, or attempt a stunt;
  • go into water, traffic or heights beyond your ability;
  • eat or drink anything harmful;
  • touch, follow, film or contact someone who has not agreed to it, or harass strangers or staff;
  • break the law or enter a place you may not enter.
  Refuse such a card and report it from its menu; reports lead to removal.
• Alcohol is never required. Only adults of legal drinking age drink, never anyone who is driving, pregnant, on medication or unwilling, and never to the point of harm.
• People outside the game have not agreed to play. Be respectful, stop as soon as they are not enjoying it, and never involve minors.
• You play at your own risk. We do not supervise games, screen players or check what you do. You accept the risks of a party game played face to face and, to the extent the law allows, INTELEKTUALCICI is not liable for injury, loss, damage or legal consequences of what you or other players choose to do because of a card. Section 13 applies.

2. Account

• Your account is created automatically through Google Play Games (Android) or Game Center (iOS). Android and iOS accounts are separate and cannot be merged, transferred or shared; progress and purchases stay on the platform where they were made.
• You are responsible for everything that happens under your account and on your device.
• Your display name must not be offensive, misleading, or impersonate another person or brand. Names pass an automatic word filter; we may also rename or remove a display name at any time, including after reports from other players, and remove the matching Wall of Fame entry. Your first name is free; each later change costs in-game coins (currently 500).
• You may delete your account at any time from the Settings screen. Deletion is permanent and forfeits all balances, items and progress.

3. Fair Play

• Play fair. Do not exploit bugs, glitches or vulnerabilities; if you find one, report it to us instead of using it.
• Cheats, hacks, modified clients, automation tools and tampering with network traffic are prohibited.
• Deliberately disrupting games for other players (griefing, stalling, tapping through cards to farm rewards) is not allowed.
• Automated fair-play checks. The game measures how long each card actually takes. If a table taps through its cards instead of playing them, the rewards for that game (coins, chest, aura, win credit and a Wall of Fame number) are reduced or withheld automatically. Losses and eliminations still count. These checks are applied to the game as a whole and run automatically. If you believe a game was wrongly judged, write to us and we will review it.
• The table decides. Players at a table can remove another player by a kick vote of two thirds of those present. A player who leaves, is kicked, or loses connection for a long time may be removed from the game by the server so the others can continue. Leaving a game early forfeits that game's rewards and any tokens or jukebox songs already used.

4. User-Generated Content

Cardarena lets you write challenge cards, create custom skins, and choose a display name that other players will see. By submitting content you agree that:

• Your content must not be illegal, hateful, discriminatory, sexually explicit, harassing, or promote violence, self-harm or dangerous behaviour, and must not target a real person.
• Your content must not infringe anyone else's intellectual property or privacy rights, and must not contain personal data of other people.
• How moderation works. Submitted cards go through an automated AI check before they can be rated. Cards that pass are rated and can be reported by other players, and are promoted, kept back or removed based on those ratings and reports and on our own review. If a card of yours is rejected or removed and you disagree, write to us (section 16) within 14 days and we will look at it again. Removal does not entitle you to compensation. Rewards for approved cards are granted at our discretion and may change.
• You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive license to use, display, translate, modify and distribute your submitted content within the app and in any video or image the app itself produces - including recordings a player makes of a performance, which show the card being performed and may be saved to that player's device and shared by them on any platform. Your display name is never shown in such a video.
• Once another player has recorded and shared such a video, we cannot recall or delete their copy of it. Removing your card from the app does not remove videos already made.
• Approved cards remain in the shared deck after you delete your account, as community content.
• Other players may block you as a creator, rate and report your cards, and report your display name. Repeatedly submitting rejected or reported content may lead to a card-submission ban or account action.
• We reserve the right to review, reject, edit, translate or remove any user-generated content at our discretion.

5. Recording Performances

Cardarena can record a video of a player performing a card, using your device's camera and microphone. Recording is always started by you, never automatically, and the video is created and saved on your device - we never receive it. If you use this feature:

• Everyone who can be seen or heard must agree to be recorded - including people in the background, and including minors, for whom the agreement of a parent or guardian is required. You are responsible for obtaining that agreement, for following the recording and privacy laws where you are, and for stopping the recording if anyone withdraws their agreement. Cardarena cannot and does not verify it.
• Do not record anyone secretly, anyone who has asked you to stop, or in places where people reasonably expect not to be filmed. Do not use recordings to harass, threaten, shame, blackmail or expose anyone.
• Take particular care with truth, dare, spicy and alcohol cards: what is funny among friends can be humiliating or unlawful once it is a video on the internet, and it cannot be taken back.
• The video is saved directly to your device's Photos or Gallery in a single attempt; if saving fails, the take is deleted. On iPhone and iPad, add-only access to Photos is required for the feature to work. The app keeps no copy and has no viewer.
• Your gallery and any cloud backup of it are yours; sharing the video sends it to whichever app or service you choose, under that service's terms, not ours. You are responsible for where you share it and with whom.
• The card shown in the video may include the names of players in your game and may be a card another player created.
• Recorded videos are not Cardarena user-generated content: we do not host, moderate, review or back them up, and none of the reporting in section 4 applies to them.
• We may change or withdraw this feature at any time; doing so does not affect videos you have already saved.

6. In-Game Economy

• Cardarena features virtual currencies (coins, diamonds, aura) and virtual items and services (chests - BASIC, MYSTERY, LUCKY and ULTIMATE - skins, jukebox song plays, name changes, marketplace listings). Chest contents are random; the odds are shown in the app before you open one.
• Virtual currencies, items and services have no real-world monetary value, are licensed to you for use in the app only, and cannot be exchanged, refunded, sold or transferred for real money or outside the app. Selling, buying or transferring accounts, items or currency outside the app is prohibited.
• In-game marketplace trades between players are final once completed. A listing fee (currently 5% of the price) is charged to the seller when a listing is created and is not refunded.
• Queuing a song on the jukebox spends coins or diamonds when the song is queued; the cost is not refunded if the song is skipped, the game ends, or you leave.
• We may change prices, rewards, drop rates, limits and the in-game economy, and may remove or replace virtual items, without compensation. A change that makes things worse for you is announced in the app at least 15 days before it takes effect, unless the law or a store rule requires an earlier change. A change to prices or rewards never takes away coins or diamonds you have already bought.

7. Purchases and Refunds

• Coins and diamonds may be purchased with real money through Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iOS). All payments are processed by Google or Apple under their own terms; we never see your payment details. Every purchase is verified on our server before it is credited.
• All purchases are consumables and are credited to the account on the device where they were made. Once credited, all sales are final, except where a refund is required by law or granted by Google Play or Apple.
• Refund requests go to the store: the Google Play refund policy or reportaproblem.apple.com for Apple. If a purchase is refunded or revoked, the corresponding coins or diamonds are removed from your account; if they have already been spent, the resulting negative balance is deducted from your future purchases and rewards. Repeated refund abuse may lead to account action.
• We do not offer refunds for virtual items or services that have already been used or consumed.
• If you are in the EU, delivery of purchased virtual currency begins immediately after payment. You give your express consent to this, and acknowledge that you thereby lose your statutory 14-day right of withdrawal for that purchase, in the store's checkout when you confirm the purchase, to the extent the law allows.

8. Music, Sounds and Other Third-Party Content

The music in the jukebox, the ambient tracks and the sound effects are licensed to us for playback inside the app only (credits are listed in Settings → Credits). You may not extract, copy, redistribute or publicly perform them outside the app. The app's music is paused while you record a performance and is not part of the exported video.

9. Prohibited Conduct

You may not:

• Use the app for any illegal purpose, or to encourage anyone to do something illegal or dangerous.
• Harass, threaten, bully or abuse other players, in the game or through content.
• Attempt to access other players' accounts or data, or impersonate another person.
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble or tamper with any part of the app or its communication with our servers, except where the law expressly allows it.
• Use the app to distribute malware, spam or unsolicited advertising.
• Create multiple accounts to circumvent bans, farm rewards or manipulate ratings, reports or votes.
• Record other people without their consent, record minors, or use a performance video to harass, threaten, shame or expose anyone.
• Use a card as an excuse to pressure anyone - a player, a bystander or staff - into anything unsafe, illegal or unwanted, or into drinking.

10. Account Suspension and Termination

Grounds for account action include, but are not limited to: cheating, exploiting, harassment, refund abuse, submitting prohibited content, misuse of the recording feature, or any behaviour that negatively affects other players. We may also discontinue the app or any feature at any time.

11. Intellectual Property

All app content, design, code, graphics, characters, sounds, music, fonts and game mechanics are owned by INTELEKTUALCICI or its licensors. You may not copy, reproduce, modify or distribute any part of the app without permission. Player-written cards and custom skins remain their authors' content, licensed to us as described in section 4.

One exception: videos the app itself produces for you - a recorded performance, including the card and the Cardarena design drawn into it - are yours to keep and to share, on any platform, for personal, non-commercial use. This permission covers only videos the app created; it does not extend to extracting artwork, sounds, fonts or card text from the app by any other means, and you may not present such a video as an official Cardarena publication.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

Cardarena is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law allows. We do not guarantee that the app will be available at all times, error-free, or free of harmful components, that any game will finish, or that in-game balances or items will never be lost. We are not responsible for:

• Loss of in-game progress, currencies or items due to technical issues, connection loss, device problems or account deletion.
• What players do, say or dare each other to do during a game, or disputes between players.
• Content created by other players, or videos players record and share.
• Service interruptions, data loss, or changes to third-party services (Google, Apple, OpenAI) that the app depends on.
• Injury, loss, damage or legal consequences arising from how you or other players act on a card, including a card that should have been refused (see section 1).

13. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, INTELEKTUALCICI shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, profits or goodwill, arising from your use of, or inability to use, the app. Our total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid us through the app in the twelve months before the claim. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, including liability for intent, gross negligence, or death or personal injury caused by our negligence.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms. Changes are posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Significant changes are announced in the app at least 15 days before they take effect, unless the law or a store rule requires an earlier change, and they do not apply to purchases you made before that date. Continued use of the app after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the app and delete your account.

15. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Croatia. Disputes shall be resolved by the competent court in Croatia, unless the consumer-protection law of the country where you live gives you the right to bring a claim in your own courts.
