Terms of Service

Last updated: 1 November 2026

These terms are the rules for using Mind Race at mindrace.in and in our Android app. By creating an account or playing, you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use Mind Race. Questions? Write to contact@mindrace.in.

Who can use Mind Race

Mind Race is free and open to everyone. If you are under 18, use it with the permission of a parent or guardian, and ask them to read these terms and our Privacy Policy with you.

Your account

Keep your password to yourself. You are responsible for what happens on your account.
One person, one account. Don’t make extra accounts to play yourself or to climb the leaderboards.
Pick a username that isn’t rude, hateful or pretending to be someone else.
You can delete your account at any time (Profile → Account → Delete my account). See Delete your account.

Fair play

Work out every answer yourself. No calculators, other apps, other people, second devices, search, AI, chatbots or voice assistants during a match, and don’t read questions out loud to anyone or anything.
Don’t use bots, scripts or anything that changes how the game works.
Don’t copy or share questions from a match or an event.
We check answer timings and record tab switches, copies and developer-tools use (see the Privacy Policy). We may remove results, ratings or prizes won by breaking these rules.

Chat and Community

Be kind: no insults, bullying, bad words, hate or threats.
Keep personal details private: no phone numbers, addresses or social media IDs.
No spam or ads.
You own what you write, but you let us show it on Mind Race for as long as it is posted. Our team can remove posts and messages, and restrict accounts for a while, when they break these rules.

Events, contests and prizes

Each event shows its own start and end time, rules and any prizes on its page.
The event leaderboard at the end is not final. Results are checked for fair play first; winners may be asked to explain how they solved some questions. Then the winners are confirmed and announced on the event page.
A player who broke the rules is moved to the bottom of the event leaderboard, gets no place, prize or certificate, and may lose the rating they gained in the event. The next player moves up.
Certificates open once the winners are announced: a place certificate for the top 3 and a certificate of participation for everyone else who played a match. Each has an ID that anyone can check at mindrace.in/verify.
To receive a prize, a winner may be asked to confirm their details by email. A prize not claimed within 14 days of the event may go to the next player.
Prizes can’t be exchanged for cash. If a sponsor can’t supply a prize, we may replace it with one of similar value.
Events run by a college, school or other organiser follow that organiser’s rules too, and the organiser hands over their own prizes.
We may change, pause or cancel an event if something goes wrong, for example a server problem or cheating.

Opponents

When no other player is free, you may be matched with a computer-controlled opponent so you don’t have to wait. Sometimes a member of the Mind Race team plays one of these opponents, in matches, events (a few matches at most, never taking a place or prize) or the chat. In “vs Bot” mode you always play our bots.

Our content

The questions, explanations, Learn pages, design and the Mind Race name belong to us. You may share links and screenshots of your own results, but please don’t copy the questions or pages to other sites or apps.

Our public Learn and Guides pages show ads from Google AdSense. There are no ads in the game or the Android app.

The service

Mind Race is provided “as is”. We work to keep it running and the questions right, but we can’t promise it will always be available or free of mistakes. Found a wrong question? Report it from the result screen. We may change features or these terms; for important changes we’ll tell you in the app and update the date at the top.

As far as the law allows, we are not responsible for indirect losses from using Mind Race. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under Indian law.

Ending your use

You can stop at any time and delete your account. We may suspend or close an account that seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms.

Law

These terms are governed by the laws of India.
