Terms of Service

Last updated: July 3, 2026 · Operated by Surface Inc. (サーフィス株式会社), Tokyo, Japan

1. What We Provide

We provide research, evaluation, and selection services for Japanese fonts from the perspective of a native Japanese game UI designer. We are a consulting service. We do not sell, license, or redistribute font files; provide legal advice or legal guarantees regarding font licenses; or act as an agent of any font vendor.

2. Font Licenses Are Your Responsibility

Licensing information in our reports is a summary of publicly available information at the date noted in the report. Font licenses may change at any time. Before using any font in your product, you must obtain the appropriate license directly from the font's vendor and confirm that it covers your use case (including game/app embedding).

3. Scope of Each Plan

Each plan's deliverables and exclusions are defined on the service page at the time of purchase. Work outside the stated scope (additional fonts, additional screens, re-evaluation, meetings, revisions beyond those included) is not provided unless purchased separately.

4. Your Inputs

You confirm that materials you submit (screenshots, builds, art) are yours to share. We use them only to deliver the service and do not publish them without your permission. Submitted materials are deleted 90 days after delivery.

5. Delivery & Turnaround

Deliverables are provided by email as a digital report. Turnaround targets (Font Check: 3 business days / Basic: 5 business days / Standard: 10 business days) count from the time we receive complete intake information. Missing information pauses the clock.

6. Refunds

A full refund is available until work on your order has started. Once the report has been delivered, refunds are not available, as the deliverable is digital and personalized. If we determine that we cannot evaluate your font (for example, the font cannot be identified), we will refund your payment in full.

7. Use of Deliverables

Reports are for your team's internal use in developing your game. You may quote short excerpts publicly (e.g., "reviewed by a Japanese UI designer") with attribution. Reselling or republishing full reports is not permitted.

8. Limitation of Liability

Our total liability arising from the service is limited to the amount you paid for the plan in question. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, including costs arising from font license changes, vendor disputes, or store rejections.

9. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Japan. Disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tokyo District Court as the court of first instance.

We do not sell or redistribute fonts. We provide professional font research, evaluation, and selection from a native Japanese game UI perspective. Licensing information is a summary of public sources as of the stated date and is not legal advice — please confirm license terms with the font vendor before shipping.
