#Terms of Use

Effective date: October 11, 2026

Welcome to Snapemu. These terms form the agreement between you and the developer of Snapemu ("we" or "us") regarding your use of the Snapemu app (the "App") and snapemu.gavinliu.cn (the "Website"). Please read them in full before downloading, installing, or using the App; by starting to use it, you accept these terms. For how we handle information, see the Privacy Policy.

#1. Scope

• These terms apply to the App and the Website;
• We grant you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to install and use the App on your devices for personal purposes;
• If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the App, and uninstall it.

#2. Game content and your responsibilities

Snapemu is an emulator that runs game files you import and includes selected games distributed under third-party licenses. See Bundled Game Licenses for their creators, sources, copyright notices, and license scopes. Rights to these games belong to their respective rights holders.

Apart from these bundled games, you need to prepare your own game files and any required BIOS files, and ensure that you hold the legal right to use them. We do not provide unauthorized game content or BIOS files, or means of obtaining such unauthorized content.

You are responsible for the content you import and for how you use the App, and you agree not to use it to infringe others' intellectual property or to break the law. If you breach this section, we may terminate the license we granted you.

#3. Premium and purchases

The core of Snapemu is free. Premium adds more personalization on top — for example, controller skins, richer cover display options, and Android home screen shortcuts.

• Purchases and payment: Premium is purchased through in-app purchases on the App Store or Google Play, and payment is processed by Apple or Google;
• Plans: Premium offers a monthly subscription, an annual subscription, and a lifetime option (a one-time purchase). The exact benefits and prices are shown on the Premium page inside the App;
• Subscriptions and renewal: monthly and annual subscriptions renew automatically through the app store. You can cancel at any time in your store account settings; benefits remain available until the end of the current subscription period;
• Lifetime option: a single purchase — no further payment is required to keep using Premium;
• Restoring purchases: with the same store account, you can restore purchases through the restore option inside the App;
• Refunds: refunds follow the refund policies of Apple or Google;
• Benefit changes: we may adjust the exact Premium benefits as the product evolves; for significant changes we will give you prominent notice in advance.

#4. Service and changes

The App is provided "as is". Emulation varies across games and devices, and we do not guarantee that every game will run perfectly on your device.

We may update, modify, or adjust the App's features as the product evolves; when something significant changes, we will tell you through a notice in the App or on the Website. You can stop using and uninstall the App at any time. We also recommend using the backup feature to export your saves regularly.

#5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

• We make no warranty that the App will fit any particular purpose, or that it will be uninterrupted or error-free;
• We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from the use of, or inability to use, the App;
• Our total liability under these terms is capped at the amount you paid for the App (or zero, if you paid nothing).

This section does not affect statutory rights that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law (including rights granted to you by consumer protection laws).

#6. Intellectual property

• The code and interface we create for the App, and the Snapemu name and logo, are our intellectual property. All rights not expressly granted by these terms are reserved;
• Third-party components and bundled games belong to their respective rights holders and are provided under their respective licenses; see Bundled Game Licenses for the game licenses;
• The personal-use, non-transferability, and other restrictions in these terms do not limit rights granted by third-party licenses for the corresponding code or assets. If these terms conflict with a third-party license regarding that content, the corresponding third-party license prevails;
• You may not use the Snapemu name or logo in ways that could cause confusion without our permission.

#7. About Apple and Google

• These terms are solely between you and us. Apple and Google are not parties to these terms and are not responsible for the App or its content; your use of each store is governed by that store's own terms of service;
• Apple and Google are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce their relevant rights against you under them.

#8. Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms. When we do, we will publish the new version on this page and update the effective date; for significant changes, we will notify you prominently, for example through a notice in the App or on the Website. If you do not agree to the revised terms, please stop using and uninstall the App; continuing to use it means you accept the revised terms.

#9. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the developer's jurisdiction, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute between you and us will first be addressed through friendly negotiation; if that fails, it will be submitted to the competent authority of that jurisdiction.

Where the law where you live gives you the right to resolve disputes locally or grants other consumer protections, this section does not affect those rights.

#10. Contact us

If you have any questions, comments, or requests about these terms, please email snapemu@gavinliu.cn — we will reply as soon as we can.
