Last updated: 20 May 2026. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of flags.games (the "Service"), operated by the operator of flags.games ("we", "us", "our"). By using the Service or creating an account, you agree to these Terms.
The service
flags.games is a free browser-based flag quiz and learning game. Modes include solo play, daily and other challenges, multiplayer rooms, and optional accounts for stats, friends, and leaderboards.
The Service is in active development. Features, scoring, and stored data may change or be reset during testing. We do not promise permanent storage of progress or accounts until we say otherwise on the site.
Eligibility
You must be old enough to use online services and accept these Terms where you live (often at least 13 or 16, depending on your country).
You may not use the Service if you are barred from doing so under applicable law or if we have suspended your access.
Accounts
You may play without an account. If you register, you must provide accurate information and keep your credentials secure.
Usernames and profile content must not be offensive, misleading, or infringe others' rights. We may change or remove usernames and content that violate these Terms.
Sign-in may use email and password and/or third-party providers (such as Google or GitHub). Their terms apply to that sign-in flow.
You are responsible for activity on your account. Notify us at the contact email below if you believe your account was compromised.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Cheat or manipulate scores, challenges, leaderboards, or anti-abuse systems (including bots, scripted play, or bypassing verification or rate limits).
- Harass, threaten, or abuse other players (including in multiplayer chat, if available).
- Probe, scrape, or overload our APIs, game servers, or infrastructure without permission.
- Reverse engineer or misuse the Service to harm others or compete unfairly with us.
- Use the Service for unlawful purposes or in violation of third-party rights.
Your content
You keep ownership of content you submit (for example a username or messages). You grant us a non-exclusive licence to host, display, and process that content only to run and improve the Service.
We may remove content or restrict accounts that break these Terms or that we must remove for legal or safety reasons.
Our intellectual property
The Service, including its design, code, branding, and game presentation, is owned by us or our licensors. Flag images and country facts may come from third-party sources under their own licences; we do not claim to own every flag depiction on the site.
You may not copy, resell, or commercially exploit the Service or our branding without written permission.
Third-party services
The Service relies on hosting, analytics, email, authentication, and security providers. Those services have their own terms and privacy practices.
Links to external sites are not under our control; we are not responsible for their content or policies.
Disclaimers and liability
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim (which is zero for a free service), except where law does not allow that limit.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (for example certain consumer rights where you live).
Ending access
You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or end access, or remove data, if you breach these Terms, if we must for legal or security reasons, or if we discontinue the Service.
Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. We will post the new date at the top of this page. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms, unless law requires a different approach for material changes.
