Terms of Service

The Service is provided free of charge. We do not collect payment information or charge fees of any kind. We reserve the right to modify this in the future, in which case we will update these terms accordingly.

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent that you meet this requirement. If you are between 13 and 18, you represent that a parent or guardian has reviewed and agreed to these terms on your behalf.

• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
• You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
• You must provide accurate information when creating an account.
• You may not create accounts on behalf of others or use another person's account without permission.
• We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.
• You may play as a guest without creating an account. Guest sessions are anonymous and may have limited features compared to registered accounts.

You agree not to:

• Cheat or exploit. Use bots, scripts, modified clients, or any other automated means to gain an unfair advantage in gameplay.
• Harass or abuse. Use in-game chat or other features to harass, threaten, or intimidate other players.
• Transmit harmful content. Send spam, malware, phishing attempts, or content that is illegal, defamatory, or infringes on the rights of others.
• Disrupt the Service. Attempt to overload, interfere with, or compromise the integrity of servers, networks, or other infrastructure.
• Circumvent security. Attempt to bypass authentication, access others' accounts, or probe for vulnerabilities without authorization.

Chat messages are moderated server-side for prohibited content before being stored or delivered. You are solely responsible for the content of your messages. Repeated violations of the acceptable use policy through chat may result in account suspension.

From time to time we run leaderboard competitions with prizes for the top finishers. Each competition's dates are shown on its card. Every competition opens and closes at 12:00 PM (noon) Pacific Time on those dates, whether that is PST or PDT. Only ranked games that finish inside the window count; games in custom lobbies never do.

To rank in a competition you need a registered account with a verified email address and at least one ranked game finished inside the window. Guest sessions are not eligible. Players who finish exactly level split the prizes for the places they share.

Cash prizes are paid only to players who are at least 18 years old. If a younger player wins, we will pay the prize to a parent or guardian on their behalf. Prizes are paid in US dollars by a method we agree on with the winner by email; we may be unable to pay in some countries, and a prize that cannot be paid or claimed within 30 days of our email is forfeited.

When a competition closes, its standings are final. We email each winner at the address on their account to arrange their prize. We may withhold or reclaim a prize, and remove a player from the standings, where we reasonably believe the results were affected by a violation of these terms, such as cheating, collusion, or playing under more than one account.

All content, code, graphics, and trademarks associated with Sequentis are owned by us or our licensors. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from any part of the Service without our written permission.

By submitting a display name or any other user-generated content, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use that content as necessary to operate the Service.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

Game outcomes are determined by the game engine and the cards dealt; we make no representations about fairness beyond what is built into the game rules.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use the Service, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time for any reason, including violation of these terms, with or without notice. You may stop using the Service at any time. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitation of liability) will do so.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflict of law principles. You agree that any dispute arising from or relating to these terms or the Service will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

Before filing a claim, you agree to attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting legal@sequentis.io. If we cannot reach an agreed-upon resolution within 60 days, either party may proceed in court.

We may update these terms from time to time. We will revise the "last updated" date when we do. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
