6.              IN-APP PURCHASES

6.1            The App may include functionality that allows you to make in-app purchases (such as purchasing a premium account subscription) (“In-App Purchases”) but it will not be necessary to make any In-App Purchases in order to play FRW.  Whilst you cannot switch off In-App Purchases from being offered to you within the App (and there is no cap on the number of In-App Purchases you can make), you can switch off/manage your ability to complete In-App Purchases by altering the settings on the device you use to play the App (see paragraph 6.3 below for more on this). You acknowledge and agree that you are fully responsible for managing your In-App Purchases and the amount you spend on In-App Purchases within the App.

6.2            We reserve the right to determine, in our absolute discretion, the quantities of the items which may be purchased via such In-App Purchases and how much to charge for any such items.

6.3            You can manage your ability to complete In-App Purchases by adjusting the settings on the device you are using to play the App. More information about how you can manage In-App Purchases on your device can be found either in the App Store Provider’s terms and conditions, in your device’s help settings or online.

6.4            If you are younger than 18 years old, you must have your parents’ or guardians’ permission to make any In-App Purchases. By completing an In-App Purchase, you are confirming to us that you have any permissions that may be necessary in order to allow you to make that In-App Purchase.

6.6            If you make an In-App Purchase, that In-App Purchase cannot be cancelled after you have initiated its activation or download. In-App Purchases cannot be redeemed for money or other consideration or otherwise transferred. If you make any In-App Purchases in the App, then the App Store Provider’s terms and conditions applicable to In-App Purchases will also apply.

6.7            Some In-App Purchases will be sold as recurring subscriptions that give access to certain features or benefits for a specific period of time. The cost of each subscription will automatically be deducted at the beginning of each subscription term (so if you have purchased a monthly subscription then payment will be taken at the beginning of each 30 day period or if you have purchased an annual subscription then payment will be taken at the beginning of each 12 month period). You can cancel any future subscription payment at any time before the next payment is due to be taken by us.

6.8            If any In-App Purchase is not successfully activated/downloaded  or does not work once it has been successfully activated/downloaded, we will, after becoming aware of the fault or being notified of the fault by you, investigate the reason for the fault. We will act reasonably in deciding whether to provide you with a replacement In-App Purchase or issue you with a patch to repair the fault. In no event will we charge you anything further to replace or repair the In-App Purchase. In the unlikely event that we are unable to replace or repair the relevant In-App Purchase or are unable to do so within a reasonable period of time and without significant inconvenience to you, we will authorise the App Store Provider to refund you an amount up to the cost of the relevant In-App Purchase.

6.9            If any damage is caused to your device by any item purchased via an In-App Purchase, you are entitled to:

(a)             request that we repair the damage within a reasonable period of time; or

(b)            receive compensation from us for the damage caused to your device.

6.10         The price of an In-App Purchase will be charged to the debit or credit card registered to your account with the App Store Provider from whom you downloaded the App. All billing and transaction processes are handled by the App Store Provider from whom you downloaded the App and are governed by the App Store Provider’s terms and conditions. If you have any payment related issues with any In-App Purchases, you should contact the App Store Provider directly.
