Terms of Service
These terms are an agreement between you and the operator of RealBat Cricket VR ("RealBat", "we", "us") for your use of the RealBat Cricket VR browser demo at demo.realbatvr.com, any test version of it, and everything delivered with it, including its software, code, data, graphics, models, animations, sounds and text (together, "the demo"). By entering the demo, or by using any part of it, you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the demo.
The short version
- The demo is a free, limited preview of the full game. It may change, be limited or end at any time.
- Play safely: clear space, wrist strap on, and stop if you feel unwell. You are swinging your arms in VR.
- You may play it. You may not copy, reverse engineer, decompile, extract, modify, re-host or get around its limits, and you may not use it to train AI or to build anything that competes with it.
- Everything in it belongs to us or our licensors.
- It is provided as it is, and our liability is limited as far as the law allows.
1. About the demo
The demo lets you try RealBat Cricket VR in a virtual reality headset's web browser: batting practice at one ground, with some features shown but kept for the full game. It is free of charge, and it is a preview: it is limited on purpose (for example in the number of balls you can face, the time some modes run and the features available), it runs in a browser rather than natively, and it may contain bugs. Nothing in it is a promise about what the full game contains or will contain.
2. Who may use it
The demo is for people aged 13 and over. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use it only with the permission and supervision of a parent or guardian, who accepts these terms for you. You must also meet the age and other requirements of your headset's maker for using its device and browser. You may not use the demo if you are barred from doing so by the law that applies to you.
3. Health and safety
Virtual reality, and a game in which you swing your arms hard, carry real risks. Before and while you play:
- Read and follow the health and safety warnings of your headset's maker.
- Play in a clear, safe space, well away from walls, furniture, windows, ceilings, fans, stairs, people and pets, with your headset's boundary set up. Check the space around you before every swing.
- Wear the controller's wrist strap, tightened, at all times. A controller that leaves your hand can injure people and break things.
- If you attach a controller to a real bat or any other object, you do so at your own risk. Make sure it is secure, that you have room for the bat's full length, and that nobody is near you.
- Stop at once if you feel dizzy, nauseous, disoriented, unwell, or have eye strain, a headache, twitching, or any discomfort. Do not drive or do anything demanding until you have fully recovered.
- Some people may have seizures or blackouts from flashing lights or patterns. If you or anyone in your family has had a seizure, epilepsy or a similar condition, consult a doctor before playing.
- Take regular breaks. Children and teens should be supervised by an adult and play for shorter periods.
You are responsible for using the demo safely and for any harm to you, other people or property that results from how and where you use it, to the extent the law allows.
4. What you may do
Subject to these terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable and revocable permission to access the demo through its official address and to play it in a web browser for your own private, non-commercial entertainment and evaluation. That is the only permission you have. Everything not expressly allowed is reserved by us. The demo is licensed to you, not sold.
5. What you may not do
You may not, and may not help, allow or ask anyone else (including any software, script, bot or artificial-intelligence system) to:
Reverse engineering and extraction
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decrypt, deobfuscate, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, algorithms, physics, logic, data formats, structure, or any underlying idea of the demo or any part of it, including its WebAssembly, JavaScript, data and asset files.
- Use any tool (including disassemblers, decompilers, IL2CPP or WebAssembly analysis tools, memory editors, debuggers, network inspectors used to capture or alter the game's files, and AI or automated analysis) to analyse, inspect, extract or reconstruct the demo's code, data or assets.
- Copy, download (except as your browser does automatically and temporarily to play the demo), extract, rip, save, record for redistribution, or export any of the demo's code, files, 3D models, textures, animations, motion data, audio, voice lines, physics values, configuration or other content.
- Use the demo, its output, or anything derived from it to train, fine-tune, test, prompt or evaluate any machine-learning or artificial-intelligence model, or to create a dataset.
Modification and copying
- Modify, adapt, translate, patch, inject code into, or create derivative works of the demo or any part of it.
- Copy, reproduce, mirror, frame, re-host, re-publish, distribute, sell, rent, lend, sublicense or otherwise make the demo or any part of it available to anyone, or embed it in another site or app.
- Use the demo or anything learned from studying it to develop, improve or market a product or service that competes with RealBat Cricket VR.
- Remove, alter or hide any copyright, trademark or other notice, or any of the demo's protections.
Cheating, interference and security
- Get around, disable or interfere with any limit, lock, password, access control, rate limit, or technical protection of the demo, including the limits on balls, time and features, or reset them other than by the means the demo itself offers.
- Access the demo through any means other than the official address and a standard web browser, or use bots, scrapers, crawlers, scripts or automation to access, play or download it.
- Probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the demo or of any system or network it runs on, or breach any security or authentication measure, without our prior written permission.
- Interfere with or disrupt the demo or its servers or networks, overload them, or send anything malicious (including viruses or harmful code).
- Impersonate anyone, misrepresent your affiliation with us, or suggest that we endorse you.
- Use the demo in any way that breaks the law or anyone's rights.
These restrictions apply to the fullest extent permitted by law. Where the law that applies to you gives you a right that cannot be excluded by contract (for example, a limited right to decompile software to achieve interoperability), these terms do not take that right away, but you may exercise it only within its strict legal limits and, where the law requires, only after first asking us for the information you need at the contact address below.
6. Access, passwords and limits
We may make the demo available only with a password, an invitation, or other access control. Any password or access we give you is personal and confidential: do not share, publish or sell it. We may change, withdraw or revoke access at any time. Limits in the demo (such as the number of balls, the length of some modes, and which features are available) are part of the demo, and keeping within them is a condition of these terms.
7. Ownership
The demo and everything in it, including its software, source and object code, physics and simulation, design, look and feel, characters, stadiums, models, animations, audio, text, and the names and logos "RealBat" and "RealBat Cricket VR", are owned by us or by our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret and other laws. Third-party components are used under their own licences, and their owners keep all their rights. These terms give you no ownership of anything and no right to use our names, logos or trademarks. Meta, Meta Quest and related marks belong to Meta Platforms, Inc. or its affiliates; the demo is not made, endorsed or sponsored by Meta.
8. The full game
The full RealBat Cricket VR game is sold through the Meta Quest Store. Buying and playing it are governed by the store's own terms and by the terms and privacy policy that come with the full game, not by these terms. Links in the demo to the store take you to a site we do not control.
9. Privacy
The demo does not ask you to create an account or sign in. It keeps its progress and settings (for example, whether you have seen the introduction, the balls you have faced and your graphics choices) in your own browser's storage, and they stay on your device. Your browser, and the networks that deliver the demo, handle technical information such as your IP address to send it to you. How we handle personal information in RealBat Cricket VR is described in our Privacy Policy.
10. Feedback
If you send us ideas, suggestions or other feedback about the demo or the game, you allow us to use them freely, for any purpose, without payment or any obligation to you.
11. Third-party services
The demo is delivered over the internet using third-party services, such as Cloudflare for hosting and delivery, and runs in your headset maker's web browser. Their availability and their own terms are outside our control, and we are not responsible for them.
12. Changes and availability
We may change, update, limit, suspend or end the demo, or any part of it, at any time and for any reason, with or without notice, and we have no obligation to keep it available or to support it. We may change these terms. The version in force is the one shown here, with its date; continuing to use the demo after a change means you accept the changed terms.
13. No warranties
The demo is a free preview provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no promises or warranties of any kind, express or implied, including that the demo will be accurate, uninterrupted, secure, free of errors or harmful components, compatible with your device or browser, or fit for any particular purpose, and we exclude all implied warranties, including of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. The demo is a game: its simulation is for entertainment and is not coaching or professional advice.
14. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, profits, revenue, goodwill or opportunity, arising out of or relating to the demo or these terms, however caused and on any theory of liability, even if we were told such damage was possible. To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability to you for all claims relating to the demo or these terms is limited to fifty US dollars (USD 50).
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or your statutory rights as a consumer.
15. Your responsibility to us
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to compensate us, and to defend and hold us harmless, against any claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your breach of these terms, your misuse of the demo, or your violation of any law or anyone's rights.
16. Breaches and enforcement
If you break these terms, your permission to use the demo ends automatically and at once, and we may block your access without notice. Because the demo, its code and its assets are valuable and their misuse may cause harm that money alone cannot put right, we may seek an injunction or other court order, in addition to any other remedy, to stop or prevent a breach, especially of sections 5 and 7. The sections that by their nature should continue after your permission ends (including 5, 7, 10 and 13 to 18) continue to apply.
17. Governing law and disputes
These terms, and any dispute arising from them or from the demo, are governed by the laws of the place where the operator of RealBat Cricket VR is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and the courts of that place have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and you may bring proceedings in its courts where the law allows. Before bringing any claim, please contact us so we can try to resolve it informally.
18. General
- Whole agreement. These terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the whole agreement between you and us about the demo.
- Severability. If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, it applies to the maximum extent allowed, and the rest stays in force.
- No waiver. If we do not enforce a term straight away, we have not given up our right to enforce it later.
- Assignment. You may not transfer your rights under these terms. We may transfer ours, for example to a successor of the game.
- Language. If these terms are translated, the English version prevails.
