- A physical or electronic signature of the subscriber;
- Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
- A statement under penalty of perjury that the subscriber has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
- The subscriber’s name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that the subscriber consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located.
If you submit a counter-notification to me in response to a notification of claimed infringement, then I will promptly provide the person who provided the notice of claimed infringement with a copy of your counter notification and inform that person that I will replace the removed User Content or feedback or cease disabling access to it in 10 business days, and I will replace the removed User Content or feedback and cease disabling access to it not less than 10, nor more than 14, business days following receipt of the counter-notification unless my Copyright Agent receives notice from the party that submitted the notification of claimed infringement that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on my system or network.

As a condition of your use of the Service, and without limiting your other obligations under these Terms of Service, you agree to comply with the restrictions and rules of use set forth in this section and in my Acceptable Use Policy, which forms part of these Terms of Use as well as any additional restrictions or rules (such as application-specific rules) set forth in the Service.

Any dealings that you have with advertisers or other third parties found on or through the Services (including your participation in promotions, the payment for and delivery of goods or services, and any terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings) are solely between you and the relevant third party. I am not responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as the result of any such dealings or as the result of the presence of such third-party content or advertising on the Services.
In some regions, I am required by law to show you consent notices before using certain cookies, identifiers or personalized advertising technologies. For this purpose, the Services may display consent forms or pop-ups provided by me or by third parties such as Google’s User Messaging Platform (“UMP”). Your choices in these consent forms (for example, whether you allow personalized ads) work together with my Privacy Policy and will determine how certain advertising and tracking technologies are used when you access the Services. If you do not agree with the consent options or with these Terms of Use, you should stop using the Services.

However, you acknowledge that I am not required to provide you with any such information or warning prior to any such termination under this section.
7.Deactivation or termination of your account:
If your account has been inactive for one year or more, I may deactivate or terminate your account at my sole discretion. You further agree that on such deactivation or termination of your Account, I may delete Your Content and information and will not be returning Your Content to you in any way. I will not be responsible for any damages or consequences incurred by you in connection with Your Content or information that is deleted. It is solely your responsibility to save any of your content. I consider several factors to understand whether you are still accessing your account. These factors include your last access date.
8.Breach of Terms’ consequences:
In addition, I may notify authorities or take any actions I deem appropriate (including, without limitation, suspending your account and your access to the Service) without notice to you if I suspect or determine that you may have (i) failed to comply with any provision of these Terms of Use or any policies or rules established by me; or (ii) engaged in actions relating to or in the course of using the Service that may be illegal or cause liability, harm, embarrassment, harassment, abuse or disruption for you, me, any third parties or the Service itself.
9.Consequences of termination:
You may, as the result of termination, lose your account and all information and data associated therewith, including without limitation your usernames, avatars, in-application characters and achievements, Virtual Currency, and Virtual Goods, as applicable.

I reserve the right but have no obligation, to monitor and manage disputes between you and other users of the Service.
9.2 Disclaimers of Warranties:
YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK AND THAT THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. I HEREBY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICE, THE SERVICE MATERIALS AND ANY AND ALL USER CONTENT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING AND TO THE EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, I MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT (i) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, OR THE SERVICE MATERIALS OR USER CONTENT WILL BE VIEWABLE TO YOU; (ii) THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE OR THAT ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED; OR (iii) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE OR ANY SERVICE MATERIALS OR USER CONTENT WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL I BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR OTHER DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF REVENUES, LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT I HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. YOUR SOLE REMEDY FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH THE SERVICE IS TO STOP USING THE SERVICE. IN NO EVENT WILL MY AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF $50 USD OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID ME, IF ANY, IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for certain types of damages. Accordingly, some of the above rules and disclaimers may not apply to you. To the extent that I may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any warranty, limit or exclude my liability or the scope and duration of such warranty as set forth in these Terms of Service, my liability shall be the minimum permitted under such applicable law.
9.4 Links to External Locations and Third-Party Websites:
The Service may contain links to third-party websites or resources. You acknowledge and agree that I am not responsible or liable for (i) the availability or accuracy of such websites or resources or (ii) the content, products, or services on or available from such websites or resources. Links to such websites or resources do not imply any endorsement by me of such websites or resources or the content, products, or services available from such websites or resources. You acknowledge sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from your use of any such websites or resources. I may remove any links at any time for any reason or for no reason.
9.5 Indemnification:
You will be responsible for and agree to indemnify, defend and hold me harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses, fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) made by a third party due to or arising from (i) information in your account and any information you (or anyone accessing the Service using your password) submit, post or transmit through the Service, (ii) your (or anyone accessing the Service using your password) use of the Service, (iii) your (or anyone accessing the Service using your password) violation of these Terms of Use or any applicable Additional Terms of Use or Third Party Agreements, and (iv) your (or anyone accessing the Service using your password) violation of any rights of any other person or entity.
9.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings:
These Terms of Use and any action related thereto or to the Service will be governed by the laws of Hong Kong without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. In the event any dispute arises out of these Terms of Use, the parties hereto consent to the arbitration submitted to the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre ("HKIAC") in Hong Kong. The parties expressly disclaim the application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made to me under these Terms of Use are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which may result in immediate and irreparable harm to me for which remedies at law are inadequate. I shall, therefore, be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligation to post any bond or surety) in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach by you. You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief. Any claim under these Terms of Use must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arises.
10.Internet and data charges:
You agree to be responsible for obtaining and maintaining all telephone, computer hardware, mobile devices, and other equipment needed for access to and use of the Service and all charges related thereto.
11.Service access out of Hong Kong:
I operate and control the Service from my offices in Hong Kong. I do not make any representation that the Service is appropriate or available in other locations. The information and materials provided on the Service are not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject me to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Service from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local laws are applicable. No relationship: You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and me as a result of these Terms of Use or your use of the Service.
12.These Terms are the entire agreement between us:
These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and me concerning your use of the Service and any other subject matter hereof and cannot be changed or modified by you except as expressly posted on the Site or the mobile application by me.
13.Even if I delay enforcing this contract, I can still enforce it later:
The failure of me to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision, and no waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
14.If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force:
If any provision of these Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify these Terms of Use.
15.We may transfer this contract to someone else:
These Terms of Use may not be assigned by you without my prior written consent but are freely assignable by me.
16.And a few more terms:
The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal importance. Upon my request, you will furnish me with any documentation, substantiation, or releases necessary to verify your compliance with these Terms of Use. You agree that these Terms of Use will not be construed against me by having drafted them. You hereby waive any defenses you may have based on the electronic form of these Terms of Use and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute these Terms of Use. A person not a party to this agreement shall have no right to enforce any of its terms. These sections will still be applicable after the termination of our contract: You agree that the following sections of these Terms of Use will survive any termination of these Terms of Use, your Account, or the Service: Section 6 (Service Materials, Ownership, Trademarks, and Feedback), Section 8 (Your Content), Section 15 (Termination), Section 16 (Disputes with Others), Section 17 (Disclaimers of Warranties), Section 18 (Limitations of Liability), Section 20 (Indemnification), Section 21 (Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings) and Section 22 (Other Important Terms).

24.1 Login Methods:
Users may log in to the App through two third-party login methods: Apple ID (Sign-In with Apple) and Google Account (Sign-In with Google) (collectively referred to as "Third-Party Login" below). Users may also log in using an account and password registered directly on the App. When a user chooses Third-Party Login, they agree to authorize the App to access the basic public information of their Third-Party Login account (including but not limited to name, email address, and profile picture), which will be used to create and manage the user’s account in the App. This authorization is subject to the service terms and privacy policies of the corresponding third-party platform (Apple or Google).
24.2 Account Security:
Users shall properly keep their Third-Party Login accounts (Apple ID, Google Account) and related login credentials. The User shall be fully responsible for all operations and behaviors conducted through their account, including but not limited to in-app purchases, information modification, and service usage. The App shall not be liable for any losses incurred by the User due to negligence in keeping account credentials, disclosure of account information, unauthorized transfer of account, or sharing of account, including but not limited to property losses and service interruptions.

Users may perform the logout operation in the "Personal Center" or the corresponding settings page of the App. After logout, the User will no longer be able to use member services, virtual item-related rights, and other functions that require login. The logout operation will not affect the User’s existing purchased rights and stored data.
24.4 Account Cancellation:
Users have the right to apply for cancellation of their account in the App in accordance with this Agreement and the relevant rules of the App.5.4.1 Cancellation Conditions: Before applying for account cancellation, the User must ensure that: (1) there are no pending in-app purchase transactions, unsettled virtual item redemptions, or other unfinished business in the account; (2) the account has no violation records, disputes, or complaints being processed; (3) all associated Third-Party Login accounts (Apple ID, Google Account) and payment methods have been unbound.5.4.2 Cancellation Process: Users may submit an account cancellation application through the "Account Settings - Account Cancellation" page in the App and complete identity verification as required.

If there is no revocation within the cooling-off period, the account will be officially cancelled.5.4.3 Consequences of Cancellation: After the account is officially cancelled, the account will be permanently invalid, and the User will no longer be able to log in to the App using the original account (including associated Apple ID and Google Account). All data in the account (including but not limited to virtual items, member rights, and viewing records) will not be recoverable. The App will delete or anonymize the User’s personal information in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, except for transaction records and risk control information that need to be retained as required by law.
24.5 Association of Third-Party Accounts:
After the User logs in through Apple ID or Google Account, the Third-Party Account will be automatically associated with the App account. If the User needs to unbind the associated Third-Party Account, they may operate through the "Account Settings" page in the App. After unbinding, the User will no longer be able to log in to the App using the unbound Third-Party Account, but the existing rights and data in the account will not be affected.
