Terms of Service

1Who we are

Playrest ("we," "us") is an independent tool that takes a character sheet you provide and generates a single-file, offline "table companion" application from it. Genesis also turns a written idea into a character sheet, with an optional Companion for that same character. Playrest is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or connected to any game publisher, and is not an official product of any game system.

2Acceptance

By using Playrest or purchasing a character sheet or generated app, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, don’t use the service.

3Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, to purchase. By using Playrest you represent that you meet this requirement.

4What the service does

You upload a character sheet (a PDF). We process the character data you provide and generate a custom, single-file application that summarizes and operationalizes that data for your own private table use. The generated app is delivered to you as a file to download and keep. It runs offline on your device and does not require an account.

With Genesis, you can instead describe a character in ordinary language or give detailed choices. Genesis uses the 2024 SRD 5.2.1 and produces a printable character sheet with character-specific notes and a separate SRD reference PDF. Review the choices and check your table’s rules with your DM. An optional Companion for that same character is a separate purchase; it is not required to use your PDFs.

5Your content and your responsibilities

"Your Content" means your character ideas, requirements, clarification answers, files, character sheets, or other material you submit.

• You are responsible for Your Content. You represent and warrant that you own it or have all rights necessary to use it, and that uploading it and having it processed by Playrest does not infringe any third party’s intellectual property, or violate any law or agreement.
• License to process. You grant us a limited, temporary license to use, store, and process Your Content solely to create your character, generate your app and provide the service during the stated retention periods. We do not claim ownership of your character or Your Content.
• No infringing or unlawful uploads. You will not upload material you don’t have the right to use, or content that is unlawful.
• Delivered character sheets, reference PDFs and Companions are provided for your own private, personal, non-commercial table use.

6Acceptable use

You agree not to: attempt to overload, abuse, or disrupt the service; upload files that exceed posted size or complexity limits; use automated means to generate apps in bulk; resell or commercially redistribute generated apps; or reverse-engineer, scrape, or copy the Playrest site or generation system.

7Pricing, payment, refunds, and rebuilds

• Pricing. Genesis costs $0.99 for the character sheet and SRD reference PDFs. Companion is a separate $3.99 purchase. The price shown at checkout applies to that purchase.
• Payment. Payments are processed by our third-party payment processor (Stripe). We do not store your full payment-card details.
• Genesis authorization and delivery. You authorize $0.99 before generation. We capture it only after you choose to keep a character and both of its PDFs pass delivery checks. If we cannot deliver, we cancel the authorization. A payment hold may take time to disappear according to your bank; an uncertain payment result is checked before we offer another payment.
• Genesis revision. One successful fresh revision before unlocking the PDFs is included. Failed generations and repairs of our own errors do not use that allowance. Your last successful character stays available while a revision is prepared. Revision and clarification requests must be made before the separate request records expire, within 48 hours of starting the purchase.
• Same-character Companion. Its separate $3.99 authorization is captured only after the Companion passes delivery checks. If we cannot deliver it, we cancel that authorization; your purchased Genesis PDFs remain available.
• Private purchase access. Each delivered product remains available through your private purchase link for one year (365 days) from that product’s delivery. Downloaded PDFs and the offline Companion file are yours to keep permanently. No new account is required. Save the link and keep it private: anyone who has it can access the purchase.
• Uploaded-character Companion builds. If generation fails, you are not charged, or you are refunded or credited. If your app completes but misses the mark, your first rebuild is free.
• Otherwise. Completed purchases are otherwise final. Please review the examples and this policy before purchasing.
• Chargebacks. If you have a problem, contact us first at support@playrest.app — we will make it right within this policy.

8Intellectual property

• Your Content stays yours. We claim no ownership over your character or the material you upload.
• Playrest stays ours. The Playrest name, site, design, and generation system are owned by Playrest and protected by applicable law. These Terms grant you no rights in them beyond using the service.
• Open-licensed reference content. Where generated apps or Genesis PDFs incorporate content available under an open license (for example, System Reference Document material under Creative Commons), that content is used under and attributed per that license.
• Output discipline. Generated apps summarize and operationalize the character data you provide. They are not rulebooks and do not reproduce proprietary rules text wholesale.

9No affiliation; third-party trademarks

Playrest is independent and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any game publisher. Any third-party names or marks are referenced only descriptively (for example, to indicate general compatibility) and remain the property of their respective owners. We do not use any third party’s logos or marks as our own.

10Disclaimers

The service, character sheets, reference PDFs and Companions are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that character sheets, reference PDFs or Companions will be error-free, fit for any particular purpose, accurate as to game rules, or uninterrupted. Results vary by character and input. Playrest is a play aid, not an official rules source.

11Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Playrest will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data or profits. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service will not exceed the amount you paid for the purchase giving rise to the claim.

12Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Playrest from any claim or demand arising out of Your Content, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

13Intellectual-property complaints

If you believe content processed or made available through Playrest infringes your rights, contact support@playrest.app with a description of the material and your claim, and we will review and act promptly, including removing infringing material where appropriate.

14Changes

We may update the service or these Terms. Material changes will be posted with a revised effective date. Continued use after changes means you accept them.

15Termination

We may suspend or discontinue the service, or refuse service, at our discretion — for example, for abuse or unlawful use.
