Terms of use

These terms cover the BeerMat desktop app, the BeerMat phone app, BeerMat Online and this website. BeerMat is provided by Daniel Weatherall, trading as BeerMat, Flat Above, 5 Albert Street, Derby DE1 2DS (“we”). Questions: hello@beermatquiz.co.uk.

Using BeerMat

• Playing a quiz is free and needs no account.
• BeerMat Free lets you run quizzes of up to 3 questions and 3 teams so you can try it. BeerMat Pro removes those limits.
• Don’t try to break, overload or get round the limits of BeerMat or BeerMat Online, or use them for anything unlawful.

BeerMat Pro

• BeerMat Pro is a subscription for a venue, £19.99 a month or £199 a year, paid by card through Stripe, which handles billing and receipts.
• It renews automatically at the end of each month or year until you cancel. Cancel any time from the quiz desk (Venue → Manage subscription) or by emailing us; Pro then lasts until the end of the period you’ve paid for, and isn’t charged again.
• You can switch between monthly and yearly in the same place; Stripe adjusts the charge for the time left.
• While a venue has Pro, it’s listed on the BeerMat map and in quiz listings once we’ve checked it’s a real venue. We may decline or remove a listing that’s misleading.
• A licence on the venue’s laptop keeps Pro working offline. If a subscription ends, the laptop returns to BeerMat Free after a short grace period. Your quizzes, questions and results stay on the laptop.
• Refunds: we don’t refund part months or part years. When you cancel, you keep Pro until the end of the period you’ve paid for. If you were charged by mistake (for example twice), email us and we’ll put it right. This doesn’t affect your legal rights.

Your quizzes and music

• Your questions, pictures, sounds and results are yours, and stay on your laptop unless you choose to share them.
• You’re responsible for having the right to use what you put in a quiz, and for the music licences your venue needs to play music in public (in the UK, usually from PPL PRS). Spotify’s terms only allow personal listening, so don’t use BeerMat’s Spotify option for a pub audience.
• Venues are responsible for the accuracy of their venue page and quiz nights.

Accounts

• Keep your password to yourself. You can delete your account at any time in the app.
• We may remove names, pictures or venue pages that are offensive or misleading, and close accounts that break these terms.

Our responsibility

• We work hard to keep BeerMat reliable, but we can’t promise BeerMat Online will always be available. Quizzes themselves run on your laptop and don’t depend on it.
• Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or your rights as a consumer.
• Otherwise, for business customers our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, and we aren’t liable for lost profits or business.

Changes and law

We may update these terms; if a change matters, we’ll tell Pro customers by email before it takes effect. These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
