Terms of Service

Last updated June 16, 2026.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using the Tavla mobile application ("App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Appgea ("we," "our," or "us").

Restrictions

You may NOT:

4. Game Rules and Fair Play

Backgammon Rules

Tavla follows standard international backgammon rules:

Fair Play Policy

When playing any form of multiplayer (LAN or online):

Violations may result in restriction, suspension, or termination of access, and in the case of online play, loss of your online profile, rank, and virtual items.

5. Online Multiplayer and Your Account

Anonymous Account

To play online, the App automatically creates an anonymous account for you through Firebase Authentication. This account is identified by a randomly generated user ID and is not tied to your real name, email, or phone number. You do not register a username or password.

You are responsible for all activity that takes place under your account on your device.

Matchmaking and Online Profile

When you play online, we maintain a server-side profile linked to your anonymous account, which may include your chosen display name, selected avatar, online rating and rank, statistics, and virtual currency. This information is used to provide matchmaking, ranked play, and leaderboards, and certain parts (such as your display name, avatar, and rank) are visible to other players.

Server-Authoritative Results

For online play, our servers are the authority on match results, ratings, rankings, leaderboards, and virtual item balances. We may correct, adjust, or reset these where we reasonably believe there has been an error, a bug, or a violation of these Terms.

Connection and Disconnection

Online play requires a stable internet connection. If you disconnect, quit, or lose connection during a match, the match may be recorded as a loss or forfeit. We are not responsible for results affected by your network conditions.

6. Online Conduct and Moderation

Online multiplayer is a shared, social environment. When playing online you agree not to:

Reporting and Blocking

The App provides in-app tools to report and block other players. Reports (including any reason you provide and the reported player's anonymous ID) are sent to us for moderation review. We may, at our discretion, review reported conduct and take action — including warnings, removal of content, matchmaking restrictions, suspension, or permanent termination of an account.

We are not obligated to monitor online conduct, but we may do so. We are not responsible for the conduct of other players.

7. Virtual Items and Virtual Currency

Tavla may provide virtual items, including in-game currency ("coins") and cosmetic items such as avatars ("Virtual Items").
