If you live in the European Union you have certain rights to withdraw from distance purchases; however, please note that when you purchase a licence to use Virtual Items from us, you acknowledge and agree that we will begin the provision of the Virtual Items to you promptly once your purchase is complete and therefore your right of withdrawal is lost at this point.

Accordingly, on a device which is not connected in this way:
The data associated with Virtual Goods, whether purchased by you using Virtual Currency or otherwise credited or awarded to you, is stored locally on your device and is not necessarily synced between different devices even if you have connected your game play on a device to a Facebook account or a third-party sign-in service (such as Sign-In with Apple or Google Sign-In) as the case may be in the Service. Accordingly, any risk of loss of this data is transferred to you :
Payment of fees
You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using the Service. Pretty Simple may revise the pricing for the Virtual Items offered through the Service at any time, but if you have an active Subscription such changes will only take effect following the end of the then-current Subscription period.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PRETTY SIMPLE IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED VIRTUAL ITEMS.
