Terms and conditions

1. Accepting these terms

By using the Neon Shift app or this website you accept these terms. When you create an account, with an email address, with Google or by linking your device, you accept them explicitly. How we handle your data is explained in the privacy policy.

2. The service

Neon Shift is a snake game for Android and iOS with a colour twist: eat orbs of your colour to build combos, eat another colour to shift to it, and pass gates only in their colour, in endless runs and in the Daily Shift, the same board for everyone each day. Your best score and your daily best are kept on your phone. You can play without an account; your game is then kept only on your phone. Accounts are optional (see section 3). With an account, your best score also takes part in the online leaderboard, and your first run of each day's Daily Shift in the daily ranking.

This website presents the app, hosts the pages that our account emails link to, and offers the contact form.

3. Accounts

• You must be at least 14 years old to create an account.
• An account is made with an email address and a password (confirmed with a link we send you), with a Google account, or by linking the app on your phone ("device account", without an email address or password).
• A device account belongs to the app's installation on your phone: it is lost if you uninstall the app or change phone, unless you secure it first with an email address or with Google (Settings › Account). We can't recover a lost device account.
• Give accurate information, and keep your password, your phone and your Google account safe: they are what protects your account. Don't share your account with others.
• We may suspend or delete an account that breaks these terms.
• You can delete your account at any time in the app; what that deletes is explained in the privacy policy.

4. Your content

What you add to Neon Shift is your nickname, the results the app sends to the leaderboards and the messages you send us. You are responsible for it, and it stays yours. You allow us to store your nickname and your results and to show them to other players on the leaderboards, only as far as needed to run Neon Shift.

5. The game and fair play

• Scores, combos and bests are for fun: they have no money value, can't be exchanged, and there are no prizes.
• Your results are kept on your phone. If you uninstall the app or change phone, they can be lost, and we can't restore them.
• Play fair: don't manipulate the game, its results or the Daily Shift, for example by modifying the app or the requests it sends.
• The leaderboards show the results the app sends. We check every result automatically and refuse results the game can't produce. Only the first run of each day's Daily Shift counts for the daily ranking; later runs that day are practice.
• We may hide or remove results from the leaderboards that look faked or manipulated, or that break these terms, without telling you first, and suspend or delete accounts that cheat (section 3).

6. Acceptable use

Don't:

• create fake accounts, or pretend to be someone else;
• choose a nickname that is offensive, hateful, sexual or misleading;
• harass other people or send spam, also through the contact form;
• try to get into other people's accounts or into our systems;
• disrupt the service, for example by overloading it;
• collect data from the service with automated tools in a harmful way;
• spread malware, or use Neon Shift for anything unlawful.

7. Availability

We work to keep Neon Shift running, but features may change, pause or end, and maintenance or outages can happen. Playing doesn't need a connection; accounts, the leaderboards and support messages do.

8. Liability

Neon Shift is provided "as is". As far as the law allows, we are not liable for indirect damages or for the loss of results kept on your phone. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits a liability that the law doesn't allow to exclude or limit, nor your rights as a consumer.

9. Changes

We may update these terms. The current version is always published on this page, with its date at the top. If you keep using Neon Shift after a change, you accept the new version.

10. Contact and law

You can reach us at or through the contact page.

These terms are governed by Italian law. Disputes go to the courts provided by consumer and civil-procedure law; if you are a consumer living elsewhere, the mandatory protections of your country's law still apply.
