These terms govern your use of the PORTLIFT website and, in combination with any project agreement or Statement of Work, our professional porting services. Please read them. By using the site or engaging our services, you agree to them.
By accessing portlift.games (the "Site") or engaging PORTLIFT for porting services, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you are using the Site or entering an agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity.
If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use this Site or engage our services.
You may use this Site for lawful purposes only. You agree not to:
We reserve the right to restrict or terminate access to the Site for any breach of these terms.
PORTLIFT provides professional game porting services, including porting games between PC/Steam, mobile (iOS and Android), console, and web platforms. The specific scope of any engagement (deliverables, timeline, fee, and ownership terms) is governed by a separate written project agreement or Statement of Work signed by both parties.
Nothing on this Site constitutes a binding offer of services. Submitting a port assessment form or contacting us does not create any contractual obligation on either side. An engagement only commences when a formal agreement is executed.
We provide a free initial port assessment. This assessment is an informal evaluation based on the information you provide and is not a binding cost estimate, warranty, or guarantee of feasibility. Actual scope and pricing are confirmed in the project agreement.
PORTLIFT may use vetted subcontractors to deliver services. All subcontractors engaged on your project are bound by confidentiality obligations equivalent to those we maintain with you.
You retain full ownership of your game, its source code, art assets, audio, and all related intellectual property. We claim no ownership over any materials you provide to us or any deliverables we produce for you under a project agreement. IP assignment terms for deliverables are specified in the relevant project agreement, and upon payment in full, all porting-specific work product created for your project transfers to you.
All content on this Site, including text, design, graphics, logos, and case study descriptions, is owned by or licensed to PORTLIFT and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from Site content without our prior written consent.
We may reference completed projects in our portfolio and case studies. We will obtain your permission before publishing identifiable details about your game or studio. We may list your game as a completed port without further permission unless you object in writing.
We treat all information you share with us as confidential. For any engagement involving access to game builds, source code, or unreleased materials, we sign a mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before receiving any confidential information. This is standard on every project, not optional.
We do not share your game details, business information, or project specifics with any third party other than subcontractors directly engaged on your project (who are themselves bound by NDAs) or as required by law.
This Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available" without any warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
We do not warrant that:
Case study results and performance figures cited on this Site reflect past projects and are not guarantees of equivalent results for your game.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, PORTLIFT and its directors, employees, and contractors shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of this Site or our services, including loss of revenue, data, or goodwill.
Our total liability for any claim arising from services provided under a project agreement shall not exceed the total fees paid by you to PORTLIFT under that agreement in the 12 months preceding the claim.
Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.
This Site may contain links to third-party websites such as app stores, game platforms, or industry resources. These links are provided for convenience only. We have no control over those sites, do not endorse them, and accept no responsibility for their content, privacy practices, or availability.
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
For changes that materially affect an active project agreement, we will notify you directly before they take effect.
These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising in connection with these terms or your use of this Site shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, unless the parties agree otherwise in a signed project agreement.
