Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using the Ludus Lens website (moodmatchgames.info), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to any part of these terms, you must not use this site. Ludus Lens is an informational gaming hub operated from Manchester, England, and these terms are governed by the laws of the United Kingdom.

2. About Ludus Lens

Ludus Lens is a community resource and informational platform designed to help parents aged 30–55 evaluate video games for their educational value, focus-building potential, and screen-time quality. We provide diagnostic guidance, game recommendations, strategy articles, and lore content—but we are not a gambling platform, gaming retailer, or game publisher. We do not sell games or accept payments for game recommendations.

3. Permitted Use

You may use this site for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes only. You agree to:

• Use the site only for its intended purpose: gathering information about games and parenting screen time.
• Not reproduce, distribute, or republish any content without written permission from Ludus Lens.
• Not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site's systems, databases, or servers.
• Not engage in any form of harassment, abuse, or defamatory conduct toward other users or Ludus Lens staff.
• Not post spam, malware, or any content that violates applicable law.
• Not scrape, crawl, or systematically download content except as permitted by our robots.txt file.

Violation of these terms may result in immediate suspension or permanent ban from the site.

4. Intellectual Property Rights

All content on Ludus Lens—including text, headings, diagnostic flowcharts, visual guides, case narratives, game-by-symptom lookup tables, and design elements—is the intellectual property of Ludus Lens or its contributors and is protected by United Kingdom copyright law. You may view and print content for personal, non-commercial use only. You may not modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works from our content without explicit written consent.

Third-party trademarks, game titles, and publisher names mentioned on this site remain the property of their respective owners. Ludus Lens is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or associated with any game publisher unless explicitly stated.

5. User-Generated Content and Comments

If Ludus Lens permits user comments, reviews, or submissions, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to use, reproduce, and display such content on our site and in our marketing materials. You warrant that any content you submit is original, does not infringe third-party rights, and complies with these terms. We reserve the right to remove, edit, or refuse any user content that violates these terms or is inappropriate.

6. Disclaimers

No Professional Advice. Ludus Lens provides informational content and game recommendations based on educational research and parenting best practices. We are not medical professionals, psychologists, or educational therapists. Our content is not a substitute for professional diagnosis, treatment, or advice from a qualified healthcare provider, educational psychologist, or specialist. If you have concerns about your child's attention, learning, behaviour, or development, please consult a qualified professional.

No Endorsement of Games. Game recommendations on Ludus Lens are based on our assessment of educational value and focus-building potential. We do not endorse games as cures for learning difficulties, attention disorders, or behavioural issues. Outcomes vary by child, family environment, and play habits. We always include play-time guardrails, posture reminders, and eye-care intervals with our recommendations.

Accuracy of Information. While we strive to provide accurate, up-to-date information, Ludus Lens makes no warranty that all content is error-free, complete, or current. Game features, pricing, availability, and publisher policies change frequently. We recommend verifying information directly with game publishers and app stores before purchase or download.

Third-Party Links. This site may contain links to external websites, app stores, and publisher pages. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites. Your use of external links is at your own risk and governed by their terms of service.

No Warranty. Ludus Lens is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We make no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding the site's fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or non-infringement. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, or that defects will be corrected.

7. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by United Kingdom law, Ludus Lens and its officers, employees, and contributors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use the site, including but not limited to loss of data, revenue, or profits, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these terms or your use of the site shall not exceed £100 or the amount you have paid to Ludus Lens in the past 12 months, whichever is greater. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability, so this limitation may not apply to you.

8. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Ludus Lens, its officers, employees, and contributors from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including legal fees) arising from your breach of these terms, your use of the site, or your violation of any applicable law or third-party right.

Ludus Lens reserves the right to modify these Terms of Service at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Your continued use of the site following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new terms. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed of any updates.

11. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising from or relating to these terms or your use of Ludus Lens shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. You agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of those courts.

12. Severability

If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be severed, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
