Please read these Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) carefully before using the MapGenius mobile application (the “App”) operated by Uplyfire (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.
By using MapGenius, you confirm that:
If you are using the App on behalf of a minor, you accept these Terms on their behalf and are responsible for their use of the App.
MapGenius is an educational geography quiz application that may include some or all of the following features, depending on the version and available updates:
Features may be added, modified, or removed over time. The specific features available to you depend on the version of the App you have installed and whether you have purchased MapGenius Pro.
The App is available in a free version (with advertisements) and a premium version (“MapGenius Pro”) available through a one-time in-app purchase.
MapGenius does not require account creation, registration, or login. All data is stored locally on your device. No username, password, email address, or other credentials are required to use the App.
The App offers a single premium upgrade:
All in-app purchases are processed through Google Play. By making a purchase, you agree to Google Play’s Terms of Service and payment terms.
We do not collect, process, or store your payment information (credit card numbers, bank account details, or billing addresses). All payment data is handled exclusively by Google.
The price of MapGenius Pro is displayed in your local currency in the App and on Google Play. Prices may vary by region and are subject to applicable taxes. We reserve the right to change pricing at any time, but changes will not affect purchases already completed.
Refund requests are governed by Google Play’s refund policy. You may request a refund through:
We may grant additional refunds at our sole discretion.
If you reinstall the App or switch devices, you can restore your Pro purchase by navigating to the Pro upgrade screen and selecting “Restore Purchases.” The App will verify your purchase through Google Play Billing using your Google account.
The free version of MapGenius displays advertisements provided by Google AdMob, including:
We do not control the specific content of advertisements displayed by Google AdMob. If you encounter an advertisement that you believe is inappropriate, misleading, or offensive, you can report it directly through Google’s ad reporting tools.
All advertisements are permanently removed upon purchasing MapGenius Pro.
The App, including but not limited to its design, code, graphics, user interface, game mechanics, quiz content, animations, and branding, is the property of Uplyfire and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You may not:
The App uses the following open-source components, each subject to its own license:
Full license texts for all open-source components are available within the App under Settings → Licenses, and in the App’s source distribution. Use of these components is governed by their respective licenses, not by these Terms. Nothing in these Terms restricts any rights you may have under those open-source licenses.
The geographic data used in the App (country boundaries, coordinates, and feature information) is compiled from publicly available sources, including Natural Earth (public domain) and restcountries.com (open data). We do not claim proprietary ownership over publicly available geographic facts or data sourced from public domain datasets.
While we strive for accuracy, we do not guarantee that all geographic information is complete, current, or error-free. The depiction of borders, territories, and place names does not imply any political opinion or endorsement by Uplyfire regarding the legal status of any country, territory, or area, or the delineation of its borders. The App’s geographic content is intended solely for educational and entertainment purposes and must not be relied upon for navigation, surveying, political, diplomatic, or legal purposes.
You agree to use the App only for its intended purpose as an educational geography quiz application. You may not:
THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
Your use of the App is at your sole risk. We do not warrant that the App will meet your specific requirements or expectations.
EU/EEA/UK Consumers: This disclaimer does not affect your mandatory statutory rights under the EU Digital Content Directive (EU) 2019/770, the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, or equivalent national consumer protection laws. Under these laws, digital content must be of satisfactory quality, fit for a particular purpose, and as described, and you may be entitled to a remedy if the App does not conform to the contract.
Brazilian Consumers: This disclaimer is subject to the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (CDC). Under the CDC, providers of products and services are liable for defects, and certain disclaimers of warranty may be considered abusive (CDC Art. 51(I)).
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL UPLYFIRE, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR:
IMPORTANT EXCEPTIONS — NOTHING IN THESE TERMS SHALL EXCLUDE OR LIMIT:
EU/EEA/UK Consumers: If you are a consumer in the EU, EEA, or UK, you benefit from mandatory consumer protection laws in your country of residence. Nothing in these Terms affects your rights under those laws, and any provisions in these Terms that conflict with such laws shall not apply to you.
Brazilian Consumers: If you are a consumer in Brazil, the limitations in this section are subject to the provisions of the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (CDC). Where the CDC provides greater protection, its provisions shall prevail.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In such jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Uplyfire, its directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or in connection with:
EU/EEA/UK Consumers: This indemnification obligation does not apply to consumers in the EU, EEA, or UK to the extent it would constitute an unfair contract term under the Unfair Contract Terms Directive 93/13/EEC, the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, or equivalent national legislation. In such jurisdictions, your liability is limited to damages caused by your willful misconduct or gross negligence.
Brazilian Consumers: This clause is subject to the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (CDC) and does not apply to the extent it would be considered an abusive clause under CDC Art. 51.
We reserve the right to modify, update, suspend, or discontinue the App (or any part thereof) at any time, with or without notice. We shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the App.
Updates may be required to continue using the App and may be installed automatically depending on your device settings.
We may revise these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will:
For material changes, we will provide at least 30 days’ notice before the revised Terms become effective. Your continued use of the App after the revised Terms become effective constitutes your acceptance of the changes, to the extent permitted by applicable law. If you do not agree with the revised Terms, you must stop using the App and uninstall it. Where applicable law requires affirmative consent to material changes (rather than implied acceptance through continued use), we will seek such consent before the changes take effect.
You may terminate your agreement with these Terms at any time by uninstalling the App and ceasing all use.
We may terminate or suspend your access to the App if you materially breach any provision of these Terms. Where practicable and permitted by law, we will provide you with reasonable notice and an opportunity to cure the breach before termination. However, we reserve the right to terminate access immediately and without notice in cases of severe or repeated violations. Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases. Termination does not affect any rights you may have under applicable consumer protection law, including your right to refunds for purchases where required by law.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including but not limited to: Intellectual Property (Section 6), Disclaimer of Warranties (Section 8), Limitation of Liability (Section 9), Indemnification (Section 10), Governing Law and Dispute Resolution (Section 14), Force Majeure (Section 20), and Export Controls (Section 22).
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Poland, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
EU/EEA Consumers: If you are a consumer habitually resident in the EU or EEA, you also benefit from the protection of the mandatory provisions of the consumer protection laws of your country of residence. Nothing in these Terms deprives you of this protection, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 593/2008 (Rome I), Art. 6(2).
UK Consumers: If you are a consumer habitually resident in the UK, you benefit from mandatory provisions of UK consumer law, which these Terms do not override.
Brazilian Consumers: If you are a consumer in Brazil, the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (CDC) and applicable Brazilian law apply to the extent they provide greater protection.
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App shall be resolved as follows:
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action.
Note: This waiver is generally enforceable in the United States but may not be enforceable in the EU, UK, Brazil, or other jurisdictions where class action or collective redress mechanisms are protected by law. In jurisdictions where this waiver is unenforceable, it shall not apply to you.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if modification is not possible, severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Uplyfire regarding the use of the App and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, and communications, whether written or oral.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not be considered a waiver of that right or provision. A waiver of any term shall only be effective if in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Uplyfire.
You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, provided that the assignee agrees to be bound by these Terms. We will notify you of any such assignment through the App or the Google Play Store listing.
The App relies on third-party services for advertising (Google AdMob) and payment processing (Google Play Billing). Your use of these services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices, content, or availability of third-party services.
We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations under these Terms to the extent that such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: natural disasters, pandemics, wars, terrorism, riots, government actions, embargoes, sanctions, power failures, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, or failures of third-party services (including Google Play, Google AdMob, or cloud infrastructure providers). During any such event, our obligations shall be suspended for the duration of the event.
We are committed to making MapGenius accessible to as many users as possible. We endeavor to follow applicable accessibility guidelines, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 where technically feasible for mobile applications. If you experience accessibility difficulties while using the App, please contact us at the email address in Section 23 so that we can work to address the issue.
The App may be subject to export control laws and regulations. You agree not to export, re-export, or transfer the App in violation of any applicable export control laws, including but not limited to those of the United States, the European Union, and your country of residence. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country to which export of the App is restricted or prohibited.
