terms & conditions

these terms govern your use of The Drunk Chicken (the “app”), a social party game published by Mission Marcus (“we,” “us,” or “our”). by downloading, installing, or using the app you agree to these terms. if you do not agree, do not use the app.

1. you must be of legal drinking age

   the app is intended solely for adults who are 21 years of age or older, or the legal drinking age in their jurisdiction, whichever is higher. by using the app you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement. the app is not directed to, and may not be used by, minors.

2. the nature of the game

   the app is an adults-only social party game that presents prompts, dares, and challenges. these prompts may reference or encourage:

   • the consumption of alcohol;
   • voluntary physical contact between consenting players;
   • truth-or-dare style challenges; and
   • personal or potentially embarrassing questions.

   participation in every prompt is entirely voluntary. any player may skip or decline any prompt at any time, for any reason, without penalty.

3. assumption of risk

   you understand that consuming alcohol and participating in physical activities carries inherent risks. you voluntarily assume all such risks. always drink responsibly, know your limits, never drink and drive, and arrange safe transportation in advance. never pressure anyone to drink or to participate beyond their comfort.

4. consent & conduct

   all prompts involving physical contact require the enthusiastic, ongoing consent of every person involved. “no” is final. you are solely responsible for your own conduct and for treating other players with respect and care at all times.

5. health & safety

   do not use the app if you are pregnant, are taking medication that interacts with alcohol, are in recovery, or have any medical condition that could be affected by alcohol or physical activity. the app does not provide medical, health, or professional advice.

6. license to use the app

   we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app for your own personal, non-commercial entertainment, subject to these terms and the applicable app store terms.

7. acceptable use

   you agree not to: (a) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the app except as permitted by law; (b) use the app for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any local law; (c) modify, distribute, or create derivative works of the app; or (d) use the app to harass, harm, or endanger any person.

8. intellectual property

   the app, including its name, artwork, characters, text, and design, is owned by Mission Marcus and is protected by intellectual-property laws. these terms grant you no ownership rights in the app.

9. disclaimer of warranties

   the app is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. we do not warrant that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

10. limitation of liability

    to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mission Marcus shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss or injury arising out of or relating to your use of the app or your conduct during gameplay. players participate at their own risk and are fully responsible for their own behavior and its consequences.

11. indemnification

    you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Mission Marcus from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses arising out of your use of the app, your conduct during gameplay, or your violation of these terms.

12. changes to these terms

    we may update these terms from time to time. the “effective” date above indicates when the current version took effect. your continued use of the app after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

13. governing law

    these terms are governed by the laws of the United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. any disputes shall be resolved in the courts located in that jurisdiction.

privacy policy

The Drunk Chicken was built privacy-first. there are no accounts and no servers of ours. the only third party involved is the ad network that shows a banner during gameplay, and the app never asks to track you across other apps. this policy explains the little bit of information the app uses and where it goes.

1. we operate no servers

   the app has no backend. players connect directly to one another over a local, device-to-device connection using apple’s Multipeer Connectivity framework. we, the developers, receive nothing — we have no server that your information passes through or is stored on.

2. information stored on your device

   to make the game work, the app stores a small amount of information locally on your device only:

   • the player name you choose;
   • your date of birth, used once to confirm you meet the legal age requirement;
   • your acknowledgement of the in-app disclaimer; and
   • your game preferences.

   this information is kept in your device’s local app storage and is never transmitted to us.

3. information shared between players

   when you join a party, your chosen player name and your in-game actions are shared directly with the other players’ devices in your party so the game can be played together. this exchange happens peer-to-peer between devices and is encrypted in transit. it does not pass through us, and we never receive or retain it.

4. camera

   the app requests camera access for a single purpose: scanning a QR code to join a party. images from your camera are used only to read the code in the moment and are never stored, saved, or transmitted.

5. local network & bluetooth

   the app uses your local network and bluetooth to discover and connect to nearby players. these are used only to maintain the direct connection between players in the same party and are not used to track your location or identify you.

6. notifications

   if you allow them, the app may show local notifications (for example, to let you know it’s your turn). these are generated on your device and are not sent through, or visible to, us.

7. advertising (Google AdMob)

   the game is free because a single banner ad appears at the bottom of the screen during gameplay. ads are served by Google AdMob, part of Google LLC. no ads appear on the intro, age check, lobby, or settings screens, and we run no analytics or tracking software of our own.

   to deliver and measure ads, Google may collect information from your device, including:

   • device identifiers other than the advertising identifier (the app never requests tracking permission, so the advertising identifier is not shared);
   • your IP address, which Google may use to estimate an approximate location;
   • which ads were shown and how you interacted with them; and
   • crash and performance diagnostics tied to ad delivery.

   we never see this information in identifiable form, and we do not sell your personal information. Google’s handling of it is described in Google’s privacy policy and how Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

   no tracking. the app does not request apple’s tracking permission, so it cannot follow you across other companies’ apps and websites, and the ads you see are not personalised to you.

   consent where required. in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and US states with privacy laws, a consent message appears before the first ad and lets you choose how ads are personalised. an “ad privacy options” link in the app lets you revisit that choice later.

8. children’s privacy

   the app is intended only for adults of legal drinking age and is not directed to children. we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under that age.

9. data retention & deletion

   your game information lives only on your device, so you are in control of it. deleting the app removes the information it stored, and you can change your saved name or preferences at any time within the app. information collected by Google for advertising is retained under Google’s policies; the links above explain how to review and control it.

10. third-party platforms

    the app is distributed through the apple app store and relies on apple’s operating-system frameworks, and it shows ads through Google AdMob as described above. your use of the app store, your device, and Google’s services is also governed by apple’s and Google’s privacy policies. we do not control and are not responsible for their practices.

11. changes to this policy

    we may update this policy from time to time. the “effective” date above shows when the current version took effect. material changes will be reflected here.
