To the fullest extent permitted by law and with the exception of any implied warranties that cannot be excluded by law, the Game, any Player Content made available through it, and any In-Game Purchases are provided on an “as is” basis and we do not make any representation or warranty of any kind, either express or implied in relation to the Game, any Player Content made available through it, or any In-Game Purchases including, without limitation, any warranties in relation to fitness for a particular purpose or in relation to quality, completeness, accuracy or reliability.

    2. Whilst we will exercise reasonable care and skill to ensure that the Game, any Player Content provided through it, and In-Game Purchases are virus free, we do not guarantee that the Game will always be available, be uninterrupted, secure or free from bugs or viruses, nor that the Game, Player Content, or any products, services or content provided through the Game, will be free from errors or omissions. Accordingly, we urge you to take your own precautions in this regard (such as using anti-virus software).

In no event will we or any of our third party partners and/or licensors be liable to you for any damages, direct or indirect loss of income or profits that may arise as a result of your use of the Game, any Player Content, or any content you have accessed via In-Game Purchases.

    4. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury arising from our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded, disclaimed or limited by applicable law.

    5. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from and against all damages, losses, and expenses of any kind (including reasonable legal fees and costs) arising out of or related to your breach of these Terms; any Player Content which you publish or contribute to; any behaviour in which you engage in the Game; and any violation by you of any law or the rights of any third party.

    6. To the extent that you may have any actionable claim under these Terms in connection with the Game you agree that it shall be brought only against us and in accordance with these terms, not any of our licensors, employees, directors, officers, related companies.
  12. General

    1. You acknowledge that these Terms are not intended to be for the benefit of, and will not be exercisable by, any person who is not a party to them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that the Platform Provider and each of its respective subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries of these Terms and therefore may enforce their respective rights under these Terms against you.

    2. In the event that there is a conflict between these Terms and the Platform Provider’s terms and conditions, the Platform Provider’s terms and conditions shall prevail.

    3. You may not assign, sub-license or otherwise transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms to any other person without our prior written consent.

    4. If we decide not to exercise or enforce any right that we have against you at a particular time, then this does not prevent us from later deciding to exercise or enforce that right.

    5. If any part of these Terms is found to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court or regulator, then, where required, that part shall be deleted from these Terms and the remaining parts of these Terms will continue to be enforceable.

    6. These Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them (including any non-contractual claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law and you agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts unless the law in your country of residence allows you to choose the courts of that country for the dispute in question. Any matters arising between you and the Platform Provider shall be as set out in the Platform Provider’s terms and conditions.
