Ziko Terms of Service

Last updated: October 5, 2026

These Terms govern your use of the Ziko mobile app ("the app"), published by Ziko LLC, a Washington limited liability company ("we", "us"). By using the app you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

1. The service

Ziko generates crossword puzzles about TV shows for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. The app is free to use, with an optional paid subscription (Ziko Pro) described in section 2. Puzzle generation is rate-limited and may be paused or unavailable at times (for example to manage capacity); we don't guarantee uninterrupted availability.

2. Ziko Pro subscription

Ziko Pro is an optional auto-renewing subscription that raises the daily limit on the puzzles you can generate, and unlocks additional features as they are released.

Billing. Ziko Pro is offered as a monthly or an annual subscription. The price shown in the app at the time of purchase is the price you pay, in your local currency. Payment is charged to the account of the store you subscribe through, your Apple Account (App Store) or your Google Account (Google Play), when you confirm the purchase.

Auto-renewal. Your subscription renews automatically at the same price at the end of each period unless you cancel it before the period ends. On the App Store, cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends; your Apple Account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours of the end of the current period. On Google Play, your Google Account is charged when the new period begins.

Managing and cancelling. You can view, change or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple Account settings (App Store) or in the Google Play app under Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions (Google Play). Cancelling stops future renewals; it does not end the period you have already paid for, and you keep Pro features until that period ends.

Refunds. Refunds follow the rules of the store you bought from. App Store purchases are refunded by Apple under Apple's terms, and we cannot issue those refunds ourselves. Google Play purchases can be refunded through Google Play under Google's refund policies, and you can also contact us about one.

Price changes. If we change the price, the store (Apple or Google) will tell you in advance and, where the store requires it, ask you to agree before the new price applies. If you do not agree, your subscription will not renew at the new price.

What Pro does not change. Pro does not remove the acceptable-use rules below, and it does not guarantee that any particular show, season or puzzle can be generated. Availability limits described in section 1 still apply.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

We may limit or suspend access that violates these Terms.

4. AI-generated content

Crossword clues are generated automatically using AI from public TV show data. Generated content may occasionally be inaccurate, contain errors, or be unexpected. It is provided for entertainment only and should not be relied upon as factual. If you encounter content that seems inappropriate, please contact us.

5. Intellectual property

The Ziko app, its name, and its original design are owned by us. Show and series names are the property of their respective rights holders and are used for identification only.

6. No warranty

The app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, to the maximum extent permitted by law.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of (or inability to use) the app. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the app in the twelve months before the claim, or (b) twenty US dollars. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, in which case the limit is the smallest amount that jurisdiction permits.

8. Privacy

Your use of the app is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains what limited data the app processes.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms; the "Last updated" date reflects the latest version, posted at the same URL. Continued use after a change means you accept it.
