Terms of use

Effective Date: July 3, 2020


Welcome! We are Zonventure AB, a company registered in the kingdom of Sweden.


  1. This Agreement

    1.1 Please read this Terms of Use Agreement carefully. It governs your use of the Zonventure services, as outlined below. When you create a Zonventure account, use the Zonventure app or browse the Zonventure website, you agree to all the terms in this Agreement and all terms that are incorporated into this Agreement as referenced below. These terms can be viewed and printed at any time through the “Terms of Use” link at the bottom of our website and in our mobile application.

    1.2 This Agreement applies to your use of all Zonventure services, in particular the Zonventure mobile application, the https://zonventure.com and https://forum.zonventure.com websites and any adventures or activities created by Zonventure.

    1.3 The websites, mobile application, adventures and activities mentioned above, including all associated software, content, products and data will be referred to throughout this Agreement simply as our “services.” References to “content” should be read in the broadest context possible; content includes among other things text, images, code, feedback, forum posts, your account details, emails, music, and audiovisual materials. This Agreement applies to “you” as a person accessing or using our services.

    1.4 All adventures created by Zonventure that are available in the mobile application can be identified by the adventure creator being "Zonventure Official". While Zonventure offers adventures for you to play, we also offer users the possibility to create and distribute adventures directly to other users through our platform. Zonventure is not responsible for content available through our services in adventures that have been created by other creators than “Zonventure Official”. Adventures that have been created by other creators than “Zonventure Official” and are made available through our services will be referred to throughout this Agreement simply as “third party adventures”.

    1.5 Because of the nature of our services, which require a cellular data plan and the ability to travel to adventure locations, our services are not directed toward anyone under the age of 16. Although individuals under 16 are welcome to play adventures, their parents or guardians must own and manage their accounts.
    If you are under the age of 18 but at least 16, you may only use our services with the consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by this Agreement.

    1.6 Zonventure's Privacy Policy explains how we treat your personal data and protect your privacy when you use our services.

    1.7 To the extent that your use of our services includes use of third party services (such as, but not limited to HERE Maps and Stripe), you are bound by the Additional Terms of Service of such services. The use of certain services may be subject to other terms, policies, or guidelines. In the event there is any conflict between this Agreement and any other policies or guidelines that appear on our websites or through our mobile applications, this Agreement will govern. If you navigate away from our websites or application to a third party website or application, the terms and conditions of use applicable to that website or application will govern your use of that website or application.

    4.1 All Zonventure adventure tickets are purchased as non-refundable. A ticket booking can be reversed up until payment has been made. The Act concerning remotely concluded contracts, in its provisions concerning the right to cancel a purchase, does not cover purchase of activity tickets. When payment has been made, the Customer is therefore bound by his purchase.

    4.2 Activity tickets bought through the Zonventure app can either be directly linked to the Customers Zonventure account, or received as ticket vouchers that can be entered into any Zonventure account. Tickets bought on the website are always received as ticket vouchers. The conditions on validity of tickets apply regardless of whether the ticket is received as a voucher or not. Ticket vouchers are value documents that can only be used once. Lost ticket vouchers will not be replaced.

    4.3 Adventure tickets are only valid on the date(s) and time(s) stated in the adventure description at the time of purchase. Unless otherwise specified, adventure tickets for adventures that can be started at any time are valid for 365 (three hundred sixty-five) days from the date of purchase.

    4.4 In the event that an adventure is cancelled due to an issue beyond the organiser's control (including, but not limited to poor weather conditions, natural disasters, government mandate, etc) then no refunds will be offered, however an alternative date or adventure will be arranged. If an adventure is cancelled due to an issue within the organiser's control, then a full refund may be offered at the organiser's discretion.

    5.7 If there is a cost for the user associated with playing your adventure, it should be collected either by Zonventure’s payment system for public adventures, or before you give the user a voucher which can be activated in the app. Once an adventure ticket has been bought, or a voucher activated, the user should be able to play the full adventure without making any additional payments. If the adventure requires bringing special equipment, obtaining tickets for public transportation, entry tickets to locations within an adventure, and the like, this has to be clearly stated in the adventure description. You may not require, ask or suggest that users pay, donate or otherwise transfer funds to you or any other parties, anywhere within an adventure.
