These Terms apply to your access and/or use of the Game, as well as to any other services that we may provide in relation to the Game, such as customer support, in-game purchases, community channels, access to draw lists, participation in competitions, virtual items (such as lives) and any other related content or features that we may provide from time to time (we refer to our Game and other services collectively as the "Services" in these Terms).
1.2. These Terms are a legal agreement and contain important information about your rights and obligations in relation to our Services.
1.3. By accessing or using the Services, including starting the Game via Telegram, you confirm that :
you have read and understood these Terms, along with its annexes hereunder, and any other documents referred to herein, including without limitation our Privacy Policy, and that you agree to be bound by these Terms and documents referred to herein; and

you understand that some aspects of the Services are free of monetary charge to use, while others require payment in TON currency.
1.4. For the purposes of these Terms, “Country of Residence” means the country in which you hold legal permanent residence, as well as any country from which you regularly access and use the services. If more than one country meets that definition for you, then your country of legal permanent residence will be your country of residence, and if you have more than one country of legal permanent residence, it will be the country with which you most closely are associated by permanent or most frequent residence.
1.5. If you do not agree to these Terms or any future updated version of them then you must not access and/or use and must cease all access and/or use of any of our Services.

1.6. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we shall be entitled to enforce any provision, right or remedy of these Terms at our sole discretion. Choosing not to enforce certain provisions, rights or remedies in some instances does not mean that we waive our right to enforce these terms in other instances.
About Services Provided
2.1. The specific game rules, scoring mechanics, life usage, level replay options, and other gameplay guidelines are described in Annex A of these Terms, and may also be presented within the Game interface. These rules form part of these Terms and you agree to comply with them.
2.2. We provide a Telegram-based skill game where players progress through level-based challenges. The game is designed to reward player skill, speed, and strategy, not chance. While a top ten leaderboard is displayed in-game for informational purposes, Season 2 prizes are determined by the completion of milestone levels and weekly draw lists rather than by high scores.
2.3. Our Services include:
● Access to the Game via Telegram;
● The ability to acquire or use certain digital goods (“Virtual Items”), such as additional lives, in exchange for TON or as part of gameplay. Virtual Items have no cash value, cannot be redeemed for real-world currency or property, and are non-transferable;
● Leaderboards (top ten, for in-game display purposes only) and weekly draw lists for prize eligibility;
● Support services for players;
● Optional community features, including promotional giveaways or engagement-based rewards offered via our official Telegram group or Discord server (these may be offered from time to time at our sole discretion and, in addition to these Terms, an official set of rules will be applicable for governing any promotions made available by us through or in connection with the Services (collectively, “Promotions”). Before you enroll in a Promotion, we may provide additional or alternative rules governing that Promotion which we will make available for your acceptance. For benefiting of such, you will have to agree to these additional or alternative rules, as applicable. If you participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules as well as our Privacy Policy. If the rules for a Promotion conflict with these Terms, the Promotion rules will govern);
● Additional features, content, or updates we may release in the future.
2.4. We operate the Game as a skill-based competition for a defined period (“Competition Period”), during which players may participate to progress through levels and milestones, with prize eligibility determined through weekly draw lists, according to the rules set out in these Terms and their Annexes. This version of the Terms applies solely to this specific Competition Period as described herein. Any subsequent competitions, seasons, or new versions of the Game may be governed by separate Terms of Service, which will be made available to players for review and acceptance at that time.

3.3. Our Services are intended for global users but are not available in countries or regions subject to trade sanctions, embargoes, or other restrictions under applicable laws. We reserve the right to block or suspend access to users in such restricted jurisdictions at our sole discretion. By using the Game, you represent and warrant that you are not located in, a resident of, or accessing the Game from any country or territory subject to sanctions, embargoes, or export control restrictions imposed by the European Union, the United Nations, the United States (including those administered by OFAC), the United Kingdom, or any other applicable jurisdiction, and that you are not listed on any applicable government list of prohibited or restricted parties

3.6. To use certain features, such as purchasing Virtual Items (defined in Section 2), you may need to use a TON-compatible wallet. To receive prizes, winners must provide a valid TON wallet address that belongs to them. Each Telegram account is treated as a unique user. However, each individual may only claim one prize per Competition Period. If we detect multiple accounts being used to obtain additional prizes, we reserve the right to disqualify or withhold rewards, as detailed in Annex A (Competition Rules and Verification).
3.7. As our Services imply collection of personal data, please note that the data controller for all personally identifiable information or personal data that we collect about you through or in relation to our Games or other Services is Bear Cave SRL. We collect, process, use and share your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy (which can be found at the link under Section 1 above) and as set out in these Terms. If you do not agree to our Privacy Policy you should not access our Games or otherwise access and/or use our Services.
Payments, Virtual Items, and Refunds
4.1. Our Services may offer virtual items for use within the Game (“Virtual Items”), which may include, but are not limited to, additional lives or other in-game enhancements. Players may acquire certain Virtual Items automatically during normal use of the Game (such as lives that regenerate over time), while additional Virtual Items can be purchased directly within the Telegram interface using Toncoin (TON). Purchases are processed via Telegram’s integrated payment system using TON.
4.2. When you purchase Virtual Items, you are granted a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use those Items within the Game, subject to your compliance with these Terms and for your own personal, non-commercial, entertainment purposes. Any use of the Services other than as specifically authorized in these Terms is strictly prohibited and will terminate this license.
4.3. You do not own Virtual Items and have no rights in Virtual Items other than the license granted by these Terms.

Your access and use of the Virtual Item may be revoked, including without limitation for breach of these Terms.
4.4. You acknowledge and agree that all purchases related to the Game are final. Virtual Items have no cash value and cannot be redeemed or exchanged for any real-world currency or asset. Purchases of Virtual Items are processed directly through Telegram’s integrated payment system or compatible TON wallets, and by proceeding with such a purchase you expressly consent to the immediate delivery of the digital content, thereby waiving any right of withdrawal under Article 16 of OUG 34/2014.
4.5. Virtual Items cannot be transferred between users or accounts, and we do not offer refunds for used, lost, or unused Virtual Items, except as required by applicable law or under exceptional circumstances, at our sole discretion.
4.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are resident in the European Economic Area, you have the right to withdraw from the purchase within fourteen (14) calendar days. However, by completing a purchase, you acknowledge and agree that the transaction is for digital content that is delivered immediately, and you understand this means you lose your statutory right to withdraw. Before purchasing a Virtual Item, we will display a confirmation requiring you to acknowledge this waiver.
4.7. Virtual Items are delivered as soon as your order has been accepted. We may refuse or revoke access to a Virtual Item if we provide a refund.
4.8. We do not sell gameplay-enhancing items (such as boosters) in order to preserve a fair, skill-based competition environment. Prices for Virtual Items are inclusive of applicable VAT or other indirect taxes, where required by law. We remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities in accordance with Romanian and EU tax regulations.
4.9. Payments are processed via TON wallets. You are responsible for ensuring that your wallet is properly connected and funded, and for covering any applicable network fees. We are not responsible for losses, delays, or fees resulting from wallet connectivity issues or network congestion.
4.10. Without prejudice to other provisions of these Terms, if we suspend or terminate your access you may lose any Virtual Items that you may have and we will not compensate you for this loss or make any refund to you.
4.11. We will issue electronic invoices for purchases of Virtual Items in accordance with Romanian and applicable EU VAT laws. These invoices may be delivered electronically via Telegram.

Annex A: Competition Rules, Prizes, and Eligibility
Competition Period: The Season 2 competition will run from 15 September 2025 at 00:00 EEST until 15 November 2025 at 23:59 EET. All gameplay and progression must occur within this timeframe to be considered for weekly prize draws.
Gameplay Mechanics
Each player starts with five (5) lives.
Each level presents a unique skill-based challenge.
Players may replay any level as many times as they wish during the competition period.
One life regenerates automatically every one (1) hour.
Losing a level results in the loss of one life.
Players can also gain lives by watching rewarded ads.
Players may purchase additional lives through the in-game shop accessible via the SecretArcadeSocietyBot. Prices are denominated in Toncoin (TON) and may be adjusted at our discretion in response to significant exchange rate fluctuations. All purchases are final and non-refundable.
By participating in the Game, you agree that your Telegram username and milestone progression may be used to compile weekly draw lists and to publicly announce draw results.
Prize Eligibility
To qualify for each weekly draw, players must:
Reach at least Level 10 in total during Season 2;
Log in at least once during the draw week;
Progress at least 5 levels during that same week.
Weighted Draw System
All eligible players are entered into a weighted raffle, where the number of times their Telegram username appears in the draw list depends on the highest milestone level they reached. Higher milestones do not replace lower entries; the highest milestone achieved determines the total number of entries a player receives:
Weekly Draws
Draws are held every Sunday at 15:00 EEST on the following dates:
To qualify for a specific weekly draw, you must complete your milestone progression before 14:59 (EEST until 25 October 2025, and EET from 26 October 2025 onward) on the day of the draw.
Each week, three (3) winners will be selected at random from the draw list.
Winners will be announced under the title: “Winners of Shuttle 11 Draw” on the official Telegram channel.
Winner Notification and Verification
Winners will be contacted within 24 hours of each draw via direct message from the Secret Arcade Society channel or community moderators.
Winners must reply within 24 hours of receiving the message.
Winners must confirm that they are 18+ and provide a valid TON wallet address.
We are not responsible for errors or delays in replies. If a winner does not respond in time, they are disqualified but may still qualify for future weekly draws.
Verification Requirements: We may require winners to complete a simple verification process before prizes are awarded. This may include providing proof of ownership of the submitted TON wallet address or other reasonable evidence to confirm eligibility. If a winner fails to respond, does not complete verification, or provides invalid information, they may be disqualified and the prize may be offered to another eligible player.
Once verified, prizes will be distributed directly to winners’ TON wallets. Accuracy and security of the wallet address provided are the sole responsibility of the user.
Milestone Prizes
Players may also receive milestone prizes in TON upon reaching specific levels during the competition period:
Prizes will be paid in TON to the valid TON wallet address provided by the winner. Winners are responsible for reporting and paying any applicable taxes in their country of residence. We will pay any taxes required under Romanian law on these prizes separately.
Geographic and Legal Restrictions
Prize eligibility is limited to players who are not residents of, or otherwise connected to, any country or territory subject to sanctions, embargoes, or trade restrictions imposed by the EU, UN, US, UK, or any other applicable jurisdiction.
Disqualification and Conduct
Players may be disqualified and forfeit their prize for:
Using bots, scripts, or automated tools;
Exploiting bugs or game mechanics;
Submitting false or fraudulent verification documents;
Abusing the TON wallet system or circumventing restrictions;
Violating the Terms of Service or any applicable laws.
Dispute Procedure
Players who believe they were wrongly disqualified or excluded may submit a written complaint within 24 hours of the draw list’s publication. We will review the claim and issue a final decision.
Fair Play Notice
Cheating, bug exploitation, bot usage, or fraudulent documents will result in disqualification.
Users may only claim one prize per draw week.
