Terms of Service
1. Who runs FISHAO.eu
The website fishao.eu, the game server and the related community services (together the "Service") are run by Jan Zuska, a private individual in the Czech Republic (the "Operator"), as a non-commercial hobby project. Contact: contact@fishao.eu.
2. A fan project, no rights claimed
FISHAO.eu is an unofficial, fan-made revival of the game FISHAO. It is not affiliated with, sponsored, approved or endorsed by GamoVation B.V. or any other owner of the original game. The original game, its name, logo, artwork, characters, sounds and other assets belong to their respective rights holders. The Operator does not claim any ownership of them and does not grant you any rights to them.
The Service is free and does not make money: there are no payments, no paid items and no advertising.
Rights holders: if you own rights in FISHAO (or act for someone who does) and you do not want this project to run, write to contact@fishao.eu. The Operator will take down the content concerned, or the whole Service, without undue delay.
3. Your account
- You need an account to play. Registration takes place only on fishao.eu; you must give a working e-mail address and your date of birth, and accept these Terms and the Privacy Notice.
- You must be at least 13 years old. If you are younger than 16, or than the age of digital consent in your country, ask a parent or guardian before you register.
- Keep your password secret. Do not share, sell or give away your account and do not use somebody else's account.
- During the test phase registration may need an invite code; codes can be limited or withdrawn.
4. Fair play
Do not cheat (speed hacks, bots, macros, modified clients or forged network messages), do not exploit bugs, do not copy or download the game files in bulk, do not attack or overload the servers and do not try to get into other players' accounts. Please report bugs and security problems to contact@fishao.eu or on our Discord server and do not use them.
The Service checks some game actions automatically (for example impossibly fast catches or movement, and unusual downloads of the game files). It can refuse such actions, disconnect the player, or block access to the game files for 24 hours. Moderators may also warn players, mute them or ban accounts. If you think a measure was a mistake, write to us.
5. Behaviour and content
Be kind to other players. Chat messages, private messages, player names, club names and bug reports must not be insulting, threatening, discriminating, sexual, illegal or spam, and must not contain other people's personal data. You keep the rights to what you write; you allow the Operator to store, show and moderate it as far as needed to run the Service. Moderators can remove content and restrict accounts.
6. Game items and progress
Fishcoins, fishbucks, fish, items, levels and all other progress exist only in the game. They have no money value and cannot be exchanged for money. The Service is in testing: there can be bugs, balancing changes, outages and, if really necessary, resets. The Operator tries to keep your progress but cannot promise it.
7. Availability and changes
The Service is offered as it is, for free, without any guarantee that it will be available, free of errors or kept running. The Operator may change or stop the Service at any time, also at the request of a rights holder. Important changes to these Terms will be announced on the website or on Discord; you will be asked to accept them again before you play.
8. Liability
As the Service is a free hobby project, the Operator is only liable to the extent required by mandatory law (in particular for intent and gross negligence). Your statutory rights as a consumer are not affected.
9. Ending your account
You can stop using the Service at any time and ask for your account to be deleted by writing to contact@fishao.eu from the e-mail address of the account (or tell us your username on Discord). The Operator can suspend or close accounts that break these Terms.
10. Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Czech Republic. If you live in another EU country, the mandatory consumer protection rules of that country still apply to you.
