Legal information

This page sets out the legal framework and notices applicable to Smileandexplore users in Australia. It explains our status regarding gambling law, consumer protections, liability limits, dispute paths, and how to contact us for legal or privacy issues.

1. Scope and entity

Smileandexplore operates as an entertainment service providing social casino-style games that use virtual coins only. The service does not accept deposits, does not facilitate real-money wagering, and does not enable cash payouts.

Registered contact: Smileandexplore — 78 Lygon Street, Carlton VIC 3053, Australia • Phone: +61 42 973 18 05 • Email: Smileandexplore@outlook.com.

2. Regulatory position (Australia)

Under Australian law, the classification of gambling services depends on whether real money or a convertible value is involved. Smileandexplore is provided solely with virtual currency that has *** real-world monetary value and therefore is not a real-money gambling service.

We aim to act consistently with consumer protection principles under Australian consumer law. This includes clear communication about the virtual-only nature of gameplay and age restrictions.

3. Age, eligibility and responsible play

Access to the service is restricted to persons aged 18 years or older. We expect users to comply with applicable local laws. If you are a parent or guardian who believes a minor has used our service, please contact us to request data removal.

Helpful resources in Australia:

  • eSafety Commissioner — online safety guidance
  • Gambling Help Online (beyondblue & Lifeline resources) for support with gambling concerns

4. Liability and disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Smileandexplore provides the service "as is" and disclaims implied warranties of fitness for a particular purpose. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, nor do we accept liability for loss of virtual balances due to device failure, browser clearing, or user actions.

Nothing on this page is intended to exclude or limit any non-excludable rights under Australian consumer law. If a provision is unenforceable under applicable law, it will be modified to the extent necessary while preserving the remainder of the terms.

5. Complaints and dispute resolution

If you have a legal concern, start by contacting our support team. Below are the recommended steps and external contacts in Australia.

If we cannot resolve your complaint internally, you may escalate to the OAIC for privacy matters or to the ACCC/state consumer agency for other consumer disputes.

6. Detailed clauses (accordion)

All audiovisual content, branding, and code remain the property of Smileandexplore or its licensors. Users may not reproduce or distribute assets for commercial use without permission.

Game state is stored in browser localStorage. Minimal technical logs may be kept by hosting providers as required for security; personal data is retained only as necessary to respond to enquiries or legal obligations.

We may update legal notices and policies. Material changes will be posted on this site and, where appropriate, notified to users by available channels.
