5. Relationship with Apple and Google
6. Special Terms
Other terms and conditions also apply to your use of the Platform and Virtual Items, depending on how you access them. For example, if you access our Platform through Facebook using its ‘Facebook Connect’ functionality, Facebook’s terms of service may apply and, as noted above, when you access our Platform these Terms and Privacy Policy apply. From time to time we, or one of our business partners or a third party, may operate a competition or promotion that is subject to additional further terms. The terms of other platforms may also apply to you. Each of these are “Special Terms”. If there is any conflict between these Terms and the Special Terms, the Special Terms shall prevail.
7. Grant of a Licence
In consideration of your agreement to be bound by these Terms, we grant you a single non-exclusive, revocable licence permitting you to:
- download or access for your personal, non-commercial purposes on suitable products and devices the Virtual Items, or fractions thereof, you have purchased; and
- sell such Virtual Items solely within the Platform to other users of the Platform, for which you will earn [real world currency and/or virtual currency that is usable solely within the Platform].
YOX owns (or has a licence to use) all intellectual property in the Platform and Virtual Items. By using our Platform under licence you acknowledge and agree that you do not acquire any intellectual property in the Platform or Virtual Items.
8. User Content
YOX uses its reasonable endeavours to clear all content included on the Platform. However, if you feel that, in your position as a rightsholder, we haven’t done so, please contact us at hello@yox.club. If appropriate, we will be happy to credit you accordingly.
9. Use of Our Chat Facility
Our Platform may offer a chat facility where you can communicate with other users of the Platform. By using the chat facility you agree to the provisions of this paragraph:
- whilst our moderators can review messages and will attempt to keep all unsuitable communications off this facility, it is impossible for us to review all messages – messages express the views of the persons who sent them and such persons will be held responsible for the content of such messages;
- we reserve the right to remove, edit, move or close any of your messages for any reason and we reserve the right to cancel or suspend your use of the chat facility at any time for any reason; and.
messages sent using the chat facility are also subject to the following restrictions. Messages shall not:
- be vulgar, sexual, violent, threatening, harassing, defamatory, hurtful or in any other way objectionable or inappropriate;
- promote or discuss any illegal activities;
- harass, degrade, intimidate or be hateful towards any individual or group on the basis of religion, gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, age, or disability;
- relate to any commercial services, goods or event nor constitute any form of advertising or solicitation (including any form of spamming);
- infringe any third parties’ intellectual property rights, including any copyright or trade marks or misuse confidential information – for example by providing quotes from texts, photos or any other music or video files; or
- impersonate any other person or entity, misrepresent an association with a business or organisation (including YOX and any third platform providers) or otherwise be deceptive or misleading.
10. Virtual Items
Virtual Items can be ‘purchased’ or ‘earned’ on our Platform. YOX may make available the following Virtual Items:
- ‘virtual currency’ being virtual currency (whether in the form of virtual tokens, coins, cash, points, bonuses or otherwise) that can be earnt or purchased to purchase ‘virtual goods on the Platform’;
- ‘virtual goods’ being virtual ‘assets’ which are a digital representation of a real word good that is owned by YOX, and for which users of the Platform can purchase digital fractions of such virtual goods.
11. Purchasing or Earning Virtual Items
12. Licence for Virtual Items
If you purchase or earn Virtual Items your use of them is subject to the following licence together with any third-party platform specific terms:
- Virtual Items are not redeemable or refundable. Once you have purchased or earned Virtual Items you will not get the ‘real’ money you paid back as Virtual Items have no monetary value;
- Virtual Items are tradeable by you solely within the Platform;
- your right to use Virtual Items ends as a result of YOX, or any third-party platform provider (including Apple and Google) or any online wallet provider having to suspend or close your account with them pursuant to these Terms or pursuant to any relevant terms of such platforms or wallets;
from time to time YOX may offer you Virtual Items which are subject to specific terms. For example:
- YOX may put in place offers to purchase Virtual Items at a discount;
- put in place a limited time period in which any Virtual Items may be purchased or earnt; or
- put in place specific specified or unspecified conditions relating to when such Virtual Items may be purchased or earnt. YOX may also sell access to restricted and sometimes time limited promotions either temporarily or permanently. Thus, in certain instances Virtual Items may only be available for a limited time or subject to specific conditions and you shall comply with and adhere to such conditions accordingly;
- you are responsible for your use of Virtual Items within the Platform and we have no responsibility or liability to you regarding how you use such Virtual Items;
- in order to avoid retaining data that is no longer needed and to be able to improve our Platform, your licence to use Virtual Items may expire if your account is inactive; and
- YOX may, from time to time, decide or be required to stop providing a Virtual Item and/or any part of it. If such an event occurs YOX shall provide you with as much advance notice as is commercially possible in the circumstances informing you that it will no longer be able to provide the Virtual Item and/or any part of it. In certain circumstances (for example for legal or regulatory reasons) YOX may have to stop providing a Virtual Item with no advance notice and, in such circumstances, YOX shall be under no obligation to provide you with a refund although it may choose to provide such refund in its sole discretion.
13. Price
14. Errors
YOX uses its reasonable endeavours to ensure that errors and mistakes do not occur in the Platform in relation to pricing and your purchase and use of the Virtual Items. However:
- YOX reserves the right to void any such obvious error or mistake however it arises or results including, for example, errors or mistakes due to human error or technical fault resulting in, for example, the cost of a virtual good or virtual currency being mispriced giving you an opportunity to profiteer from such mispricing. You hereby forfeit any Virtual Items you obtain as a result of such an error or mistake; and
if the price or specification for any Virtual Item is materially incorrect when you place an order for that Virtual Item and you contact YOX to inform it of this incorrect information, we will:
- provide you with the correct Price or specification; and
- ask you to confirm whether you would like to purchase the applicable Virtual Item at the correct Price or specification. If applicable, YOX will also state the period for which the offer or Price remains valid. If you choose not to complete your purchase at the corrected Price or product specification, YOX will provide you with a full refund for any amounts already paid by you; and YOX reserves the right to edit Virtual Items at any time for any reason, including, for example, to correct inaccuracies or to update or modify the features, characteristics, colours or other aspects of such Virtual Items.
15. Availability
16. Chargebacks
YOX may cancel a payment and make a chargeback to you, including any transaction fees incurred with payment providers, if it has reason to believe:
- any purchase is incomplete; or
- any purchase is made, or YOX suspects it is made, fraudulently or in an otherwise non-bona fide manner.
17. Cooling-Off Period
If you purchase Virtual Items, then you have the right to withdraw from your purchase within 14 days, commencing on the day after the date of your purchase (a “Cooling-Off Period”). However, please note that if you purchase Virtual Items from YOX and choose to download the Virtual Items immediately, the Cooling-Off Period ends once the download of any Virtual Items is complete, due to the nature of these goods.
This means that if you download the Virtual Items straightaway you acknowledge that you will therefore no longer have the right to cancel them.
If you would like to exercise your rights under the cooling off period please send an email to hello@yox.club and the Virtual Item will be removed from your account and any monies paid for such Virtual Item shall be refunded.

20. Implied Terms
21. Representations and Warranties
Subject to paragraph 19, YOX provides the Platform and Virtual Items to you on an ‘as is’ basis. YOX does not represent or warrant that access to the Platform or Virtual Items will be uninterrupted, reliable or fault free. YOX does not represent or warrant to you that the Platform or Virtual Items will be accurate, complete or reliable. While YOX shall endeavour to ensure the Platform and Virtual Items are available to you 24 hours a day, YOX will not be liable to you if for any reason the Platform or any Virtual Item is unavailable at any time or for any period.
Access to the Platform and/or Virtual Items may be suspended temporarily and without notice in the case of system failure, maintenance or repair or for reasons beyond YOX’s control. YOX may also need to modify or maintain the Platform, Virtual Items, or any part of them, at any time. If this need arises, YOX may suspend access to the Platform, Virtual Items or any part of them or stop providing the Platform, Virtual Item or any part thereof, indefinitely. For example, YOX may occasionally be required to make edits to Virtual Items in order to correct inaccuracies. Such edits may result in removal of a particular Virtual Item or component thereof.
