Terms & Conditions

1. Eligibility and scope

You must have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement. If you are below the age of legal majority where you live, you may use Deskland only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian.

These Terms apply to the editions and features actually made available to you. A future Game Mode or another separately offered edition may be subject to additional terms presented with it.

2. Editions and license

The Base edition currently includes the Beach and Meadow themes. The Wallpaper edition is a one-time purchase that includes the paid themes made available for that edition. Features and availability may vary by version and supported operating system.

Subject to these Terms and payment of any applicable price, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use Deskland for your own use on devices you own or control. This is a license, not a sale of ownership in the software or its content.

Components identified as open source, including the applicable Deskland core and free themes, are licensed under their accompanying open-source licenses, including GPL-3.0 where stated. Those licenses govern the relevant components and are not limited by these Terms.

3. Prices and website purchases

Prices, currency, applicable taxes and payment details are shown at checkout. The Wallpaper edition is sold as a one-time purchase, not a subscription, unless a different offer is expressly presented before payment.

Website payments are processed by the third-party payment provider identified at checkout. You authorize that provider to charge the selected payment method and agree to any terms it presents. You are responsible for providing accurate billing information.

4. Accounts and cross-channel restoration

A Deskland account uses your email address to restore eligible website purchases and synchronize purchases across supported channels. You are responsible for keeping your login session reasonably secure and for activity on devices where you remain signed in.

If you purchase and use Deskland only on Steam, eligible purchases are verified automatically through Steam without signing in to a Deskland account. To restore a website purchase in the Steam version, or a Steam purchase in the website version, sign in to the same Deskland account in both versions.

Restoring a website purchase in the Steam version grants access through your Deskland account; it does not add a DLC purchase record to your Steam library. Restoring a Steam purchase in the website version does not create a website order. Neither restoration redeems or transfers ownership of a separate store product. Any independently purchased Steam DLC remains subject to Steam’s rules.

New purchases and refunds are governed by the rules of the original channel. A refund may change the associated Deskland account entitlement after the next successful synchronization, but it does not affect an independent purchase made through the other channel. Signing out or losing access to the purchasing account or platform may remove access to paid themes that cannot otherwise be verified.

5. Refunds and entitlement changes

The Wallpaper edition has a USD 4.99 reference price. The actual currency, regional price and any launch discount are shown at checkout. It is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, so there is no recurring billing to cancel. You may request a full refund within 14 calendar days of successful payment. Requests submitted after this period are not covered by this refund guarantee.

To request a website-purchase refund, email hello@deskland.app from the email address used for the purchase and include your order number. If you cannot find the order number, provide the payment date and payment receipt so we can locate the order. We will respond with the outcome within 5 business days. Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method; the actual posting time depends on your bank or payment provider.

Purchases made through Steam are subject to Steam’s refund rules and processes. This website refund guarantee does not limit any mandatory consumer rights you have under applicable law.

When a purchase is refunded, cancelled, charged back or otherwise reversed, the associated paid entitlement may be revoked. A cached entitlement may remain usable temporarily until the next successful synchronization. Refunding a website order does not affect a separately purchased Steam DLC, and reversing an unrelated order does not affect separately purchased entitlements.

6. Themes, updates and availability

We may release new themes and provide fixes, improvements and compatibility updates. Themes described as part of the Wallpaper edition will be made available to eligible users without an additional subscription charge, but we do not promise a particular release schedule or a specific number of future themes.

Deskland may require updates to remain compatible with Windows, WebView2, Steam or the authorization service. We may modify, suspend or discontinue features, themes, services or support for an older version, subject to any rights you have under applicable law.

7. Acceptable use

Except where an open-source license or applicable law expressly permits otherwise, you may not resell, rent, sublicense or redistribute the paid software or theme assets; remove proprietary notices; bypass purchase or entitlement controls; or use Deskland to infringe another person’s rights.

You may not interfere with the website, account or authorization service, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, scrape the service at a disruptive rate, or use Deskland for unlawful activity.

8. Intellectual property

We or our licensors retain all rights, title and interest in Deskland, including the Deskland name, logo, proprietary themes, artwork and related services. No rights are granted except those expressly stated in these Terms or an applicable open-source license.

Third-party software, fonts and assets are subject to their respective licenses and notices. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of third-party materials to you.

9. Third-party services

Steam, payment providers, WebView2 and other third-party services are provided by their respective operators. Their terms and privacy policies apply to your use of those services. We are not responsible for a third party’s independent service, except where applicable law provides otherwise.

10. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains the information Deskland processes, including icon positions, local settings, account email addresses, purchase verification data and feedback you choose to send. The Privacy Policy forms part of these Terms.

11. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Deskland is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that it will always be uninterrupted, error-free, compatible with every device or future operating-system version, or that every defect will be corrected.

No disclaimer excludes a guarantee, warranty or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of profits, data or goodwill arising from or relating to Deskland.

Our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to Deskland will not exceed the amount you paid us for the edition giving rise to the claim during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim. These limits do not apply to liability for intent, gross negligence, personal injury, or any liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

13. Changes and termination

We may update these Terms by publishing a revised version and changing the date above. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice of material changes. Continued use after the revised Terms take effect constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.

You may stop using Deskland at any time by closing and uninstalling it. We may restrict access to online services or paid entitlements after fraud, unlawful activity or a material breach, subject to applicable law. Provisions concerning intellectual property, disclaimers, liability and disputes survive termination.

14. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the People’s Republic of China, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that mandatory consumer protections in your place of residence remain applicable.

Before filing a formal claim, please contact us so we can try to resolve the issue. Unless applicable law requires another forum, disputes will be submitted to the competent people’s court at our registered domicile.
