Terms of Service

Effective November 11, 2026

Please read these Terms carefully. Teddy Arcade is free and provided as is, with no promises, and to the fullest extent the law allows the publisher is not responsible for any loss or harm from using it (sections 11 to 13). These Terms also include a binding arbitration agreement and a waiver of class actions in section 15, which affect how disputes are resolved. Grown-ups: if a child uses Teddy Arcade, you agree to these Terms for them.

1. Agreement to these Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Teddy Arcade ("Teddy Arcade," "we," "us," or "our") about your use of the website at teddyarcade.com, the game Maze Math Chase at mazemath.teddyarcade.com, and any other games or pages we offer (together, the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Cookie Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Children and parents

The Service is made for children in grades 1 to 5, playing with permission and supervision from a parent, guardian, or teacher. If you are under 18 (or under the age of majority where you live), you may use the Service only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms. A parent or guardian who allows a child to use the Service agrees to these Terms on the child's behalf, is responsible for the child's use of the Service, and accepts these Terms personally, including sections 11 to 16. A teacher or school that lets students use the Service agrees that it is authorized to do so and will supervise that use.

3. The Service

The Service is free. It has no accounts, no purchases, and no ads. We may change, add, pause, or remove any part of the Service, including any game, feature, or content, at any time and for any reason, without notice and without liability to you. We do not promise that the Service will always be available, work on every device, or keep any game or setting.

4. Rules for playing

To keep the Service safe and fun, you agree that you will not, and will not let anyone else:

A game's host can remove players from that game. We can remove anyone, close any game room, block any network, or stop anyone from using the Service at any time, with or without notice, if we believe it is needed to protect players or the Service.

5. Hosting a game

When you create a game, you choose who gets the room code. Only share it with people you know. The host chooses the game's settings and is responsible for who they invite.

6. Educational content

The math questions are practice for fun. We try to make them correct and right for each grade, but we do not promise that every question, answer, or grade level is accurate, complete, or suitable for any particular child or curriculum. The Service is not a substitute for a teacher or a school program, and we make no promise about learning results.

7. Health and safety

The Service shows moving, colorful, and sometimes flashing images, and it plays sounds. A very small number of people may have seizures or other reactions when exposed to certain light patterns or flashing images, even with no history of epilepsy. If you or your child has an epileptic condition, ask a doctor before playing. Stop playing right away and see a doctor if you notice dizziness, vision changes, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, or any involuntary movement. Take regular breaks, play in a well-lit room, keep the volume at a comfortable level, and play in a safe place away from stairs, furniture, and other hazards. Grown-ups decide how much screen time is right for their children. You (and, for a child, the supervising grown-up) understand these risks and voluntarily accept them.

8. Our content and your license

The Service and everything in it, including the games, code, characters, bear designs, artwork, sounds, music, text, names, and logos, belong to us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Subject to these Terms, we give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable permission to use the Service for your own non-commercial entertainment and learning, in a web browser, as we provide it. We keep all other rights. You may not copy, sell, rent, share, modify, or make new works from the Service without our written permission. Some parts of the Service use open-source software under their own licenses, and those licenses control your rights to those parts.

9. Feedback

If you send us ideas or suggestions, we may use them for any purpose without paying you or owing you anything.

If the Service links to another website, we do not control that website and are not responsible for it.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE, "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT OTHER PLAYERS WILL FOLLOW THESE TERMS. YOU USE THE SERVICE AT YOUR OWN RISK. SOME PLACES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THESE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL TEDDY ARCADE OR ITS OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR PROFITS, OR FOR ANY DAMAGE TO DEVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF WE WERE TOLD SUCH DAMAGES WERE POSSIBLE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (US $50). THESE LIMITS APPLY EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, AND THEY ARE A BASIC PART OF THE BARGAIN FOR A SERVICE WE PROVIDE FOR FREE. SOME PLACES DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THESE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU; IN THAT CASE OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE SMALLEST AMOUNT THE LAW ALLOWS.

13. Indemnification and release

To the fullest extent allowed by law, you (and, for a child, the child's parent or guardian) agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Teddy Arcade and its owners, members, managers, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use or misuse of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or anyone else's rights.

Other players are responsible for what they do and the nicknames they choose; we do not control them. To the fullest extent allowed by law, you (and, for a child, the child's parent or guardian) release Teddy Arcade and its owners, members, managers, employees, contractors, and agents from all claims, demands, and damages of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or related to the conduct of other players or any other third party. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party." Residents of other places waive any similar law.

14. Ending use

You can stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or end your access at any time, for any reason, without notice. Sections 2 and 6 to 19 continue to apply after your use ends.

15. Resolving disputes: informal resolution, arbitration, and class action waiver

Talk to us first. If you have a problem with the Service, email us at privacy@teddyarcade.com and describe it. You and we agree to try in good faith to resolve it informally for at least 60 days before starting any formal proceeding.

Binding individual arbitration. If we can't resolve it informally, you and we agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms (a "Dispute") will be resolved by final and binding arbitration on an individual basis, and not in court, except as stated below. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, before a single arbitrator. Payment of filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be governed by those rules. Unless you and we agree otherwise, the arbitration will take place in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, or, at your choice, by video conference or written submissions. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. The arbitrator decides all questions about the scope, enforceability, and validity of this arbitration agreement, except that a court decides questions about the class action waiver.

Exceptions. Either side may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, and either side may ask a court to stop infringement or misuse of intellectual property or attacks on the Service.

Class action waiver. You and we agree that each may bring claims against the other only individually, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative action or arbitration. The arbitrator may not combine more than one person's claims or award relief to anyone other than the individual party. If this waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, that claim must be decided in court, not arbitration, under section 16.

Jury trial waiver. To the extent any Dispute is decided in court, you and we waive any right to a jury trial.

Your right to opt out. You can opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing privacy@teddyarcade.com within 30 days after you first use the Service, with the subject "Arbitration opt-out" and your name. Opting out does not affect the rest of these Terms.

Time limit. To the fullest extent allowed by law, any Dispute must be started within one year after it arises, or it is permanently barred.

16. Governing law and courts

These Terms and any Dispute are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and applicable United States federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. For any Dispute that is not arbitrated, you and we agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts located in Spotsylvania County, Virginia, and the federal courts for the Eastern District of Virginia.

17. General terms

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service and replace any earlier agreements. If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, that part will be limited to the minimum extent needed, and the rest stays in effect. If we don't enforce a right, we haven't given it up. You may not transfer these Terms; we may transfer them, for example to a company that takes over the Service. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, agency, or employment relationship. We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events outside our reasonable control. Headings are for convenience only.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will change the date at the top and, for important changes, post a notice on the Service. Changes apply from the date they are posted, except that a change to section 15 will not apply to a Dispute that we already knew about before the change. If you keep using the Service after a change, you accept the updated Terms.
