Courtesy translation. The binding version is the Portuguese original (Termos de Uso); if the two differ, the Portuguese version prevails.
1. Who we are and acceptance
Boardrift is a snow racing game with progression, pets and events, developed and maintained by MAFFRA ENTERTAINMENT LTDA (CNPJ 69.676.776/0001-22), headquartered in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil. By creating an account or playing, you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy. The game records the date and version you accepted and asks for a new acceptance whenever there is an important change.
2. Online game and required account
Boardrift is free and only works with an internet connection and an account. The account is created with an email and password, in the game or at boardrift.com.br/conta, and it is the same on every platform. Progress, balances, items and pets are saved on our server, not only on the device.
- You are responsible for keeping your password secret and for the use of your account.
- Your nickname and the name or tag of a clan cannot be offensive or misleading, or contain contact details.
- An account is personal: selling, lending or transferring accounts is not allowed.
3. Who can play
Boardrift’s age rating is 13 and older, and you may not create an account if you are under 13. When you create the account, you confirm that you are 13 or older and say whether you are 16 or older, without having to give your date of birth; the age range is used to apply the protections for teenagers described in the Privacy Policy. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 13, it will be deleted. App stores show their own rating on the game’s page. Players under 18 should play with the knowledge of their parents or guardians, who can follow the account, request deletion of the data and set up the parental controls of the devices and stores.
4. Coins, gems, carrots and items
Coins, gems, carrots, boards, helmets, outfits, armor, pets, the Season Pass and the Premium benefits are licenses for use inside the game. They have no monetary value and cannot be exchanged for money, sold or transferred to another account.
- Coins are earned by playing. Gems are earned through rewards and leveling up, and can be purchased.
- Upgrades can be bought with coins or gems, as shown in the store. This applies to run upgrades (such as magnet, shield, bag, tricks and the Giant Snowball, Glider and Rift Focus powers), to pet armor and to carrot packs.
- Armor for the Den pets: uncommon (5,000 coins, from pet level 1), rare (15,000 coins, from level 4), epic (48,000 coins, from level 6) and legendary (gems only, 1,800, from level 8), in that order: each one can only be bought after the previous one. Draco has no uncommon armor and starts at rare.
- Carrot packs: 50 carrots for 120 gems and 150 carrots for 300 gems. Carrots are used to adopt and feed pets and fill the power bar during the run.
- Gems can also pay to continue a run.
- Boards, helmets and outfits only change appearance. A complete set lights up a visual effect and gives no coin or speed bonus. Some exclusive sets give a store discount or unlock another item; the game shows this benefit before you buy.
- The price and effect of each item are shown before you confirm.
If a bug grants coins, gems, items or rewards by mistake, or shows a wrong price, we may correct the balance or remove what was received improperly. Items from a valid purchase are not removed for this reason.
5. Pets and powers
Pets are adopted at the Den and level up to 10. At level 4, each Den pet gains an automatic power (Zigzag, Aurora Light, Headbutt, Kick, Blue Slide, Owl Eye). Draco, exclusive to the Infernal Set, gives +15% coins, also in Inferno mode. The Shadow Bat, won in the Nivor Challenge, brings the Echolocation pack. The effects and numbers of each power are shown in the game and may be adjusted to balance the run.
6. Purchases, Premium and ads
Purchases are optional, and the price is always shown before you confirm.
- On PC and on the website, purchases with money (Premium, Season Pass and Weekly Pack) are paid on a page from RevenueCat, our payment partner, opened in the browser. The item is delivered to the account after the server receives the payment confirmation.
- On mobile, purchases are made through the App Store or Google Play, which follow their own payment and refund rules.
- One-time purchases are charged only once. The Season Pass is valid for the season of the month in which it was bought and does not renew.
- The Weekly Pack can be bought once a week per account (Monday to Sunday, Brasília time). If the Pass for the same season or the Weekly Pack for the same week is paid twice, the second payment is not delivered and is refunded.
Premium is Boardrift’s subscription, with a monthly or a yearly plan. The monthly plan renews every month and the yearly plan every year, until canceled, at the price shown before confirmation. Canceling prevents the next charge, and the benefits continue until the end of the paid period (the month or the year). To cancel:
- Premium subscribed on PC: use the link to manage the subscription included in the RevenueCat receipt email, or write to [email protected] from the account’s email address.
- Premium subscribed on mobile: in the subscription settings of the App Store or Google Play, under each store’s rules.
Premium and the Season Pass belong to the account and end when it is deleted. Deleting the account or uninstalling the game does not cancel the Premium charge: cancel the subscription before deleting the account.
- Solstice Set: exclusive to players who pay for yearly Premium. It is delivered after the payment is confirmed and stays on the account forever, even if the yearly plan is not renewed. It is removed only if that payment is reversed, refunded or disputed (chargeback).
Boardrift has no ads on PC. On mobile, an ad only appears when you choose to watch one to get a reward, with a daily limit: continuing after a crash ("Watch an ad and continue"), doubling the coins at the end of a run ("Double coins"), the daily chest, swapping the daily mission (1 per day), a free Boosted Start (1 per day), carrots for your pet (up to 2 per day) and bringing your pet back from its expedition right away, with the reward ("Come back now with the reward", 1 per day). There are no ads that appear on their own and no banners, and never an ad during a run or in the Nivor fight. The ads are provided by Google AdMob, and the data used is described in the Privacy Policy.
Players under 18 may only make purchases with the authorization of their parents or guardians. Purchases charged back after being used, or made by fraudulent means, may have their items removed and, in case of fraud, lead to account suspension. To request a refund for a purchase made on PC or on the website, write to [email protected]. Nothing in these Terms limits your rights under the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code, including the right of withdrawal where applicable.
7. Founder Packs
The Founder Packs (Caretaker, Season and Legend) are a launch-period offer. Each pack can be bought only once per account and is valid on the same account on PC and mobile.
- The contents and price of each pack are shown before you confirm. Payment is processed by RevenueCat, and the pack is delivered to the account only after the server confirms the payment.
- The Founder items and the titles "Caretaker Founder", "Season Founder" and "Legend Founder" are exclusive and will not return to sale after launch. If an account has more than one pack, the highest title is shown.
- No pack includes legendary pet armor, which remains sold only for gems.
- Refund: you may withdraw from the purchase within 7 days (art. 49 of the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code), as long as the pack’s gems have not been used. On refund, the pack, items, badge and title are removed from the account.
- Name in the credits (Legend only): the player chooses the name once, with up to 24 characters. The name goes through a filter and Maffra Entertainment’s approval, and only appears after it is approved. Names that are offensive, misleading, contain contact details or violate third-party rights are rejected, and the player can choose another one.
8. Nivor Challenge and rewards
The game has no loot boxes, random draws or chance-based prizes: the rewards from the daily chest, missions, progression and events are fixed and shown in advance.
The Nivor Challenge is the weekend event, exclusive to Premium (monthly or yearly); the Season Pass does not give access. There are 3 chances per weekend, 1 per day: on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Brasília time. A day’s chance does not carry over to the next day and is used when the fight starts.
Before the fight, you choose the piece you want to win: the Shadow Set outfit, the scarf or helmet, the Shadow Board or the Shadow Bat pet. Each win fills 20% of the chosen piece, and with 5 wins it is yours. A loss or quitting does not fill the bar. With the complete set, each win gives 5,000 coins and 150 gems. Progress is saved on the account, is not sold and cannot be bought.
9. Chat, leaderboard, leagues, clans and seasons
The chat, including the clan chat, only uses preset phrases and emojis: there is no free text, private messages, links, photos or contact sharing. It can be turned off in Settings. You can report and block players; abusive use may lead to muting, a chat ban or account suspension.
The nickname, clan and scores of those who take part in the leaderboard, leagues, clans and seasons are visible to other players. Rewards are in-game items, paid once per period, and never money.
10. Fair play
Every run is checked by the server. Cheats, bots, modifying the game, deliberately exploiting bugs, manipulating the leaderboard or accessing other players’ accounts are not allowed. Impossible or suspicious runs may be discarded and reviewed, and have their rewards removed.
11. Suspension and termination
Violations of these Terms may proportionally lead to a warning, muting, removal of rewards, suspension or termination of the account. Whenever possible, we tell you the reason and you can contest it through the contact email. You can delete your account at any time in the game (Settings → Account → Delete account) or at boardrift.com.br/conta.
12. Availability and changes to the game
The game may go through maintenance, updates and balance adjustments, and features may be changed or removed. If the game is shut down, we will give at least 30 days’ notice and purchases will be suspended during that period, without prejudice to the rights under the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code.
13. Intellectual property
Boardrift, Rift (also known as Rifty), Nivor, the pets, the Boardrift and Maffra Entertainment brands, the code, art, 3D models, animations, music and texts belong to Maffra Entertainment and are protected by Brazilian Laws 9,610/1998, 9,609/1998 and 9,279/1996. You receive a personal, limited, revocable and non-transferable license to play. You may not copy, extract files, distribute, sell, reverse engineer (except within the limits of the law), use the content to train artificial intelligence or use our brands without written authorization.
14. Liability
We work to make the game run well, but we do not guarantee it will always be available or free of bugs. We are not responsible for problems caused by the player’s device, connection or third-party services, within the limits of the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. Important changes will be announced in the game and on the website, and the game will ask for a new acceptance before you continue.
16. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Brazil. The courts of the consumer’s domicile have jurisdiction.
