The rules of the trip

Last updated 12 October 2026

1. Who we are, and agreeing to these terms

DustDash is made by SPENCER AI (ABN 31 978 335 623), a business based in Victoria, Australia ("we", "us"). These terms are an agreement between you and us about the DustDash app and this website (together, "DustDash"). By downloading, opening or playing DustDash you agree to them, and to our privacy policy. If you don't agree, please don't use DustDash, and delete the app.

If you're under 18, please read these terms with a parent or guardian. They should agree to them for you, and they're responsible for how you use DustDash, including any purchases.

2. What DustDash is

DustDash is a puzzle game for iPhone. You line up rocks, fly a little ship through the gaps, collect stardust for fuel and work your way home, quadrant by quadrant. It's a game for fun. Nothing in it has value outside the game.

Your game is saved on your phone. There is no account, and we don't keep a copy. Our privacy policy explains this in full.

3. Credits and purchases

• Free to play. DustDash is free to download and play. Credits can be earned in play, by mining crystal and selling salvage.
• Credit packs. You can choose to buy packs of credits inside the app. Each pack gives the number of credits shown on it; nothing you buy is random. Credits are spent in the game on repairs, force fields, bigger tanks and hull, pickaxes and navigation. Stardust (fuel) is never sold.
• Payment. Purchases are made through Apple's App Store with your Apple account, at the price shown in the App Store before you confirm. Apple charges you, and Apple's terms apply to the payment. There are no subscriptions and nothing renews.
• What you're buying. Credits are a licence to use a game feature, not money or property. They can't be exchanged for cash, transferred to anyone else, or moved to another game. Once spent, they're used up.
• Credits live on your phone. Because DustDash has no account, credits (including ones you bought) are saved only on the phone you play on. Choosing NEW RUN in Settings, deleting the app, or losing or resetting your phone removes them, and we can't restore them. Your phone's own backup may bring them back if you restore from it.
• Refunds. Refunds for App Store purchases are handled by Apple. You can ask for one at reportaproblem.apple.com. This doesn't affect your rights under consumer law (section 7).
• Parents. Apple's Ask to Buy and Screen Time let you approve or turn off purchases on a child's device.

4. Playing fairly

We give you a personal, non-transferable permission to use DustDash on Apple devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use. Please don't:

• copy, sell, rent or redistribute DustDash, its artwork, films, music or text;
• reverse-engineer, decompile or tamper with the app, except where the law allows it;
• use cheats, modified versions or tools that change the game or its purchases;
• use DustDash in any way that breaks the law or harms anyone.

DustDash, its characters, artwork, films, music and text belong to us or are used with permission.

5. Play sensibly

DustDash has flashing lights, bright colours, explosions on screen and vibration. If you or anyone in your family has a history of seizures or epilepsy, talk to a doctor before playing. Stop playing if you feel dizzy, unwell or uncomfortable. You can turn effects down in Settings. Take breaks, and don't play when you need to pay attention to something else, such as when walking or driving.

6. Changes and availability

As far as the law allows, we provide DustDash "as is" and "as available", without any promise that it will be error-free, always available, or suitable for your purpose. We may update, change, rebalance, pause or stop DustDash or any part of it, including prices and what credits can be spent on, as far as the law allows. If we stop offering DustDash, we'll stop selling credit packs first.

7. Your rights under consumer law

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or changes any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can't be excluded, restricted or changed by agreement. If you live outside Australia, you may also have rights under your local consumer law that these terms can't take away. Every part of these terms applies only as far as the law allows.

8. Limits on our responsibility

As far as the law allows:

• we give no promises or guarantees about DustDash other than those set out in these terms or that the law says must apply;
• we aren't responsible for any indirect or consequential loss, or for any loss of game progress, credits or enjoyment, including where your phone is lost, reset or replaced, or the app is deleted;
• we aren't responsible for services run by other people, including Apple's App Store and payment systems, or for DustDash being unavailable, changed or stopped;
• where the law lets us limit our responsibility for a failure to meet a consumer guarantee, our responsibility is limited to supplying the service again, or paying the cost of having it supplied again;
• otherwise, our total responsibility to you for everything to do with DustDash is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for DustDash in the 12 months before the claim, or AUD $50.

None of this limits our responsibility for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law doesn't allow us to limit.

9. If something goes wrong

Email welcome@myspencer.ai with what happened and what you'd like us to do, and we'll try in good faith to sort it out within 30 days. You can also contact a consumer protection agency, a regulator, a tribunal or a court at any time.

10. Apple and the App Store

If you got DustDash from Apple's App Store:

• these terms are between you and us, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for DustDash and its content;
• you may use DustDash on Apple devices you own or control, as allowed by the App Store's Usage Rules;
• we, not Apple, provide maintenance and support for DustDash, and Apple has no duty to provide either;
• if DustDash fails to meet any warranty that applies, you can tell Apple, and Apple may refund the price you paid for it. As far as the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation for DustDash;
• Apple isn't responsible for any claims about DustDash, including product liability claims, claims that it fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, consumer protection or privacy claims, or claims that it infringes someone else's intellectual property. We are responsible for dealing with those, as these terms set out;
• you must follow any third-party terms that apply when you use DustDash, such as your mobile or internet provider's;
• you confirm that you are not in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a terrorist-supporting country, and you're not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties;
• Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and can enforce them against you.

11. General

• Law. These terms are governed by the law of Victoria, Australia. Courts in Victoria can hear disputes about them, but you can also use the courts where you live if your local law gives you that right.
• Changes to these terms. We may update these terms, for example when DustDash changes or the law does. We'll update the date at the top and, for a significant change, tell you in the app before it takes effect. A change won't apply to anything that happened before it, including credits you'd already bought. If you don't agree with a change, you can stop playing and delete DustDash.
• If part doesn't work. If any part of these terms can't be enforced, it's cut back only as much as needed, and the rest still applies.
• No waiver. If we don't enforce something straight away, we can still enforce it later.
• The whole agreement. These terms and our privacy policy are the whole agreement between you and us about DustDash.
• Moving the agreement. We may transfer these terms to another business that takes over DustDash, as long as your rights under them stay the same.
