These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of our website and the digital services provided by Sea Star Creative Design Ltd (operating under the brand The Code Games). By registering an account or purchasing our services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Eligibility & Age Requirements

The Code Games provides digital and physical mission-based experiences. While account ownership is restricted to 18+, minor users aged 13+ may create a player profile independently, and children aged 8–12 may access the game platform under the direct supervision of the primary account holder. Access to our commercial services is governed by the following age-related policies:

Financial Transactions (18+): You must be at least 18 years of age to purchase any product, start a subscription, or conduct any financial transaction on playthecode.com. By completing a purchase, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to enter into a binding financial contract under the laws of England and Wales.

Account Ownership: The primary account holder—the person responsible for billing, subscription management, and legal compliance—must be a parent, legal guardian, or an adult over the age of 18.

Parental Responsibility: If you are purchasing a mission for a child (the “End User”), you agree to supervise their registration on our game subdomain (missionpi.playthecode.com) and ensure they adhere to our safety guidelines.
