START HERE | An introduction to Kongregate contracts – Developer Portal - Support

Developer Resources

To help developers understand how the Kongregate platform operates, we provide several documents and resources that explain the rules, rights, and responsibilities associated with publishing games on the platform. These include explanations of the Game License & Upload Agreement, the Data Processing Addendum (DPA), and other supporting documentation such as developer guidelines and FAQs.

Core Documents

Game License & Upload Agreement – Covers general terms for publishing your game on the Kongregate Platform, including licensing, revenue share, intellectual property, and your developer obligations.
Data Processing Addendum (DPA) – Focuses specifically on data privacy, protection, and compliance with applicable laws (e.g., GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA). It clarifies your responsibilities when processing personal data on behalf of Kongregate and provides rules for international transfers, security, breach notifications, and data subject requests.
Developer Content Standards – Standards for acceptable game content and platform compliance.
Developer FAQs – Plain-language explanations of common questions about publishing, revenue share, and compliance. These pages form part of the Kongregate Developer Portal.
Developer Technical Support - additional pages providing specific guidance on technical integration considerations, such as APIs.

The Developer Portal support materials, documentation, and FAQs provided by Kongregate are intended to help developers understand how the platform operates and the requirements for publishing games. These resources are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal, financial, tax, or regulatory advice.

The FAQs and other materials do not form part of, supersede or replace the legally binding terms of the Game License & Upload Agreement or DPA. Kongregate are not liable for any errors or omissions in any support materials on the Developer Portal, such as FAQs.

Developers are responsible for ensuring that their games, content, monetization practices, and data processing activities comply with all applicable laws and regulations. If you have questions about how these requirements apply to your game or business, we recommend consulting with a qualified professional advisor.
