Terms of use

Last updated: 12 October 2026. These terms apply between you and the provider of Ovalings when you create an account and play. If the German and English versions differ, the German version applies.

1. Provider

Luis Dominic Bodenbach, Vogelsbergstraße 27, 60316 Frankfurt am Main, Germany, email: ovalings.support@proton.me. More details are in the imprint.

2. Account

• You must be at least 16 years old. If you are under 18, purchases with real money are locked until your parents unlock them.
• The information you give when registering must be correct. Keep your password secret.
• Your account belongs only to you. You may not sell it, give it away or share it with others.
• Your display name must not insult anyone or pretend to be someone else.

3. Game content and right of use

• Ovalings, eggs, items, backdrops, diamonds, gold and energy are game content. You receive a right to use them in the game, not ownership.
• Game currencies are not money. They cannot be paid out or exchanged for real money.
• Diamonds you bought with real money do not expire.
• Trading for real money outside the game, such as selling Ovalings, game currencies or accounts on other sites, is not allowed.

4. In-app purchases

• Purchases with real money go through Apple's App Store or Google Play. Their terms also apply, including for payment and refunds.
• You receive purchased content immediately after the purchase. For digital content, your right of withdrawal ends when delivery starts with your express consent and you have confirmed that you lose your right of withdrawal as a result (Section 356(6) German Civil Code). Apple and Google handle how this works at the time of purchase.
• The store shows you prices in real money before you buy.
• A purchase is only credited once our server has verified it with Apple or Google, exactly once per receipt. Starter packs are available only once per account.
• Guest accounts cannot buy anything with real money. If you are under 18, you need your parents' approval by email. They set a monthly limit and can withdraw the approval at any time.
• If a purchase cannot be credited, for example because the approval is missing or the limit has been reached, we do not confirm it with the store. Google then refunds it automatically. With Apple it stays open and is credited as soon as the approval is given.
• Monthly passes (VIP and VVIP) renew every month until you cancel them in the App Store or on Google Play. You collect the daily diamonds in the app. Days on which your pass was running remain collectable, even after it ends. With a pass you get the rewards of the ad videos without watching a video.
• If Apple or Google refund a purchase, we take back its content, at most until your balance reaches 0. If you have already spent the diamonds, we note the shortfall. From the second such refund on, you can only buy again once you have settled the shortfall with diamonds. Eggs and items from a refunded pack are removed as long as they are unopened, unused and not listed on the marketplace.

5. Ad videos

• You only see ads when you start a video yourself to get a reward. There are no ads between actions and no banners.
• You receive the reward when Google tells our server that the video ran to the end. If a video stops or no message arrives, there is no reward.
• The number of videos is limited per day and per place in the game. What you get as a reward is shown at each place in the app, on the lucky wheel each field is as large as its chance.
• How Google handles data and how you can change your consent is explained in the privacy policy.

6. AI-written profile

The three sentences in an Ovaling's profile are written by an AI (Claude Haiku by Anthropic) from the information our code calculates from the Ovaling. The AI does not decide any stats, odds or loot. The profile is a description for entertainment. The stats shown in the app are what counts. If the text differs from them, the stats apply.

7. Chance and odds

What is inside an egg is decided by chance. The odds for every rarity and every family are shown in the shop before you buy an egg. Every Ovaling is unique. There is no right to a particular result.

8. Marketplace and trading between players

• On the marketplace you can offer and buy Ovalings, eggs and items for game currencies. The number of slots is limited.
• Whatever you offer is locked until it is sold or withdrawn.
• A purchase on the marketplace is final. Players set their prices themselves.

9. Rules for fair play

The following is not allowed:

• cheats, bots, modified apps and exploiting bugs
• attacks on our servers or attempts to change values without going through the server
• insults, threats, harassment and unlawful content, for example in names or messages
• multiple accounts to gain an advantage

Please report bugs you find through the contact form.

10. What happens after a violation

If someone breaks these rules, we first inform them with the reason and give them the chance to respond. We then decide again. Depending on how serious it is, we may give a warning, remove content gained through the violation, or suspend the account temporarily or permanently. For serious violations, such as attacks on the server, we suspend immediately on a provisional basis and hear the person afterwards. Your statutory rights remain unaffected.

11. Changes to the game

We keep developing Ovalings. Content, values and rules may change when there is a valid reason, such as game balance, security, new laws or technical reasons. Changes cost you nothing extra. If a change affects your use more than only slightly, we will tell you in good time beforehand, and you can end the contract free of charge within 30 days (Section 327r German Civil Code).

12. Availability

We try to keep Ovalings available at all times. Maintenance, faults and reasons outside our control may cause outages.

13. End of the game

If we ever shut Ovalings down, we will announce it in the app at least three months in advance.

14. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and under the Product Liability Act. For slight negligence we are only liable if we breach a duty that is essential for the game and on which you may rely, and then only for typical, foreseeable damage. Otherwise we are not liable for slight negligence.

15. Ending your account

You can delete your account in the app at any time: Settings, Account, Delete account. This ends this contract. All content of your account is lost, including purchased content. A running monthly pass does not end at the store because of this, so cancel it there beforehand.

16. Changes to these terms

If these terms change, we will show you the new version in the app and ask for your consent. If you do not agree, the previous terms continue to apply, or you can delete your account.

17. Final provisions

German law applies. If you live as a consumer in another EU country, you keep the protection of the mandatory rules of your country. We do not take part in proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. If one provision is invalid, the others remain valid.
