Terms of Service

Last updated: May 24, 2026

Welcome to Poker Republic. By creating an account or using the app, you agree to these Terms.

What Poker Republic is

Poker Republic is a private app for organizing home poker games among invited friends. It is a tool for managing group memberships, events, RSVPs, results, and leaderboards. Poker Republic is not a gambling service. The app does not handle money, does not facilitate betting, and does not take a cut of any wager. Any cash exchange between players happens entirely outside the app and is between those players.

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the app.
You are responsible for ensuring that any private poker games you organize using the app comply with the laws of your jurisdiction.

Your account

You sign in with Google or Apple. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure.
You are responsible for the content you post — group names, event titles, notes, and your display name.
You may delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete account. If you are the sole admin of a group with other members, the app will ask you to transfer admin to another member or delete the group first; this prevents accidentally orphaning other people's game data.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Post content that is harassing, threatening, hateful, sexually explicit, or otherwise objectionable.
Impersonate someone else.
Use the app to organize illegal gambling or any other illegal activity.
Attempt to access groups, events, or accounts that you have not been invited to.
Reverse engineer, scrape, or interfere with the service.

We reserve the right to suspend or remove accounts that violate these rules. Group admins may also remove members from their groups.

User-generated content

You retain ownership of the content you create. By posting content, you grant Poker Republic a worldwide, non-exclusive license to store and display it within the app for the purpose of running the service.

To report objectionable content or abusive users, email support@poker-republic.com with the group name, the content in question, and a brief description. We will review reports and act on them within a reasonable timeframe (typically 24-48 hours).

Copyright complaints (DMCA)

If you believe content uploaded to Poker Republic infringes your copyright, send a written notice to support@poker-republic.com with the subject line "DMCA Takedown" containing all of the following, as required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3):

Your physical or electronic signature.
Identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed.
Identification of the material on Poker Republic that you claim is infringing, with enough detail to let us locate it (group name, event, user, approximate date).
Your contact information (name, address, telephone, email).
A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

We will remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material upon receipt of a valid notice. If you believe your content was removed in error, you may send a counter-notice to the same address with the equivalent information required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). Repeat infringers may have their accounts terminated.

Service availability

We aim for the app to always be available, but we do not guarantee uptime. The service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Poker Republic and its operator are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the app. This includes any disputes or losses arising from poker games organized using the app.

Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated in the app before they take effect. Your continued use of the app after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

Termination

You may stop using the app at any time. We may terminate or suspend your account if you violate these Terms.
