Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“User” or “you”) and Krackin Software (“we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your use of all mobile, desktop, and web applications and related services published by Krackin Software.
By downloading, installing, or using any Krackin Software app, you confirm that:
- You are at least 13 years of age, or you have the consent of a parent or legal guardian
- You have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms
- If you are using an app on behalf of an organization, you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms
If you are under 18, your parent or guardian must review and agree to these Terms on your behalf.
Apps Covered
These Terms apply to all current and future applications published by Krackin Software, including:
- Nom Tac Toe — a friendly take on tic-tac-toe, playable solo, on a couch, or online with friends.
- PawYears — a pet lifecycle and care companion.
- Any other future apps or games published under the Krackin Software name on the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, Microsoft Store, or the web.
These Terms supplement — and do not replace — the terms of service of the platform through which you downloaded the app (Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Microsoft Store).
License to Use
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Krackin Software grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use our apps for your personal, non-commercial purposes on devices you own or control.
This license does not permit you to:
- Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of our apps
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the apps, except where permitted by applicable law
- Remove or alter any proprietary notices, labels, or watermarks
- Use the apps for any commercial purpose without our express written permission
- Transfer your license or rights under these Terms to any other person
All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Krackin Software.
Pro Features and In-App Purchases
Some apps offer optional “Ad-Free”, “Pro”, or “Premium” upgrades available as one-time in-app purchases through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Microsoft Store. The Free tier of some apps shows non-personalized advertising to help cover our costs; upgrading to any paid tier removes ads entirely. By purchasing an upgrade, you agree to the following:
- One-time payment: Upgrades are purchased once and unlock features permanently. There are no subscriptions or recurring charges associated with any Krackin Software upgrade.
- Ad removal: Any paid tier (Ad-Free, Pro, or Premium) removes ads from the app on devices signed into the purchasing store account. Pro and Premium also unlock additional features beyond ad removal, as described inside the app at the time of purchase.
- Platform billing: All payments are processed by Apple, Google, or Microsoft, not by Krackin Software. Your payment information is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies.
- Restore purchases: You may restore a purchase on any device signed into the same store account using the “Restore Purchase” button in the About section of each app. You are responsible for maintaining access to that account.
- Feature scope: Paid features are described within each app at the time of purchase. We reserve the right to modify, add, or remove paid features in future app updates. We will not remove core features that were explicitly advertised as part of a paid tier at the time of your purchase without reasonable notice.
- Device limits: Purchases are tied to your platform account and may be used across all devices associated with that account, subject to platform policies.
Refunds
All purchases are processed by Apple, Google, or Microsoft. Refund requests are subject to their respective refund policies:
- Apple App Store: Request refunds through reportaproblem.apple.com. Apple's standard refund window is 14 days from the date of purchase.
- Google Play Store: Request refunds through the Google Play app or at play.google.com/store/account/orderhistory. Google's standard refund window is 48 hours from the date of purchase.
- Microsoft Store: Request refunds at account.microsoft.com/billing/orders, subject to Microsoft's refund policy.
Krackin Software does not process refunds directly. If you have a problem with an app that you believe warrants a refund, please contact us at support@krackinsoftware.com first — we would much rather fix the problem for you.
Acceptable Use
You agree to use our apps only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to:
- Use any app in any way that violates applicable local, state, national, or international law
- Use any app to harm, harass, or defraud any person
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any system or network related to our apps, including the Nom Tac Toe online multiplayer service
- Use automated tools (bots, scrapers, etc.) to interact with our apps or game server
- Exploit any bug or vulnerability in our apps — please report bugs to support@krackinsoftware.com
Online Multiplayer Conduct
Nom Tac Toe offers optional online multiplayer matches. When you participate in online play, you agree to the following community standards:
- Choose appropriate nicknames. Do not use nicknames that are obscene, harassing, impersonating, or that contain personal information you would not want shared with strangers.
- Play fairly. Do not use modified clients, automation, or other tools to gain an unfair advantage.
- Respect other players. Krackin Software may, at its sole discretion and without notice, restrict access to online multiplayer for users who abuse the service or harm other players.
- Online play is best-effort. The online game server is provided as-is with no uptime guarantee. We may take it offline temporarily for maintenance or permanently if it ceases to be feasible to operate.
For details on what data is sent to the game server during online play, see the Privacy Policy section Online Multiplayer & Game Server.
Intellectual Property
All Krackin Software apps, including their design, code, graphics, icons, splash screens, names, logos, and content, are owned by Krackin Software and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
The names Krackin Software, Nom Tac Toe, and PawYears are names used by Krackin Software. You may not use these names in any way that would cause confusion or imply endorsement by Krackin Software without our prior written permission.
User-generated content (such as pet names, nicknames, or photos you enter) remains yours. By entering content into our apps, you represent that you have the right to do so.
Your Data
Our apps store data locally on your device. You are responsible for maintaining your own data. We strongly recommend:
- Regularly backing up your device via iCloud, Google Backup, or Windows Backup
- Not relying solely on any app as a single source of truth for important records
Krackin Software is not liable for any loss of data resulting from device failure, app deletion, OS updates, or any other cause. Since we do not store your data on our servers, we cannot recover lost data for you.
For full details on data handling, see our Privacy Policy.
Third-Party Content and Services
Our apps may reference, display, or integrate with the following third-party services:
- Apple App Store, Google Play Store, Microsoft Store: Used for app distribution and in-app purchase processing. Subject to their respective terms of service.
- Microsoft Azure: Hosts the Nom Tac Toe online multiplayer game server. Subject to Microsoft's Online Services Terms as they apply to us as the customer of Azure, not to you as the end user.
Krackin Software does not endorse, control, or guarantee the availability of any third-party service referenced in or relied on by our apps. Links to third-party websites are provided for convenience; Krackin Software is not responsible for the content of those sites.

App Store Terms
You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Krackin Software only, and not with Apple Inc., Google LLC, or Microsoft Corporation. None of those companies is responsible for our apps or their content.
For apps downloaded from the Apple App Store, you agree to Apple's Usage Rules as set forth in the App Store Terms of Service. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to our apps.

Krackin Software reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify users through the apps themselves.
Your continued use of any Krackin Software app after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the app.
