= Board Game Arena Terms of Service =


== Welcome to BGA! ==


Thanks for using our services (“Services”). The Services are provided by Board Game Arena ("BGA"), located at G. Isabelli, 19 bd de la République, 92260 Fontenay-aux-Roses, France.

By using our Services, you are agreeing to these terms. Please read them carefully.


== Using our Services ==


You must follow any policies made available to you within the Services.

Don’t misuse our Services. For example, don’t interfere with our Services or try to access them using a method other than the interface and the instructions that we provide. You may use our Services only as permitted by law, including applicable export and re-export control laws and regulations. We may suspend or stop providing our Services to you if you do not comply with our terms or policies or if we are investigating suspected misconduct.

Using our Services does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in our Services or the content you access. You may not use content from our Services unless you obtain permission from its owner or are otherwise permitted by law. These terms do not grant you the right to use any branding or logos used in our Services. Don’t remove, obscure, or alter any legal notices displayed in or along with our Services.

Our Services display some content that is not from BGA. This content is the sole responsibility of the entity that makes it available. We may review content to determine whether it is illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display content that we reasonably believe violates our policies or the law. But that does not necessarily mean that we review content, so please don’t assume that we do.

In connection with your use of the Services, we may send you service announcements, administrative messages, and other information. You may opt out of some of those communications.


== Your BGA Account ==


You may need a BGA Account in order to use some of our Services. You may create your own BGA Account, or your BGA Account may be assigned to you by an administrator, such as your employer or educational institution. If you are using a BGA Account assigned to you by an administrator, different or additional terms may apply and your administrator may be able to access or disable your account.

To protect your BGA Account, keep your password confidential. You are responsible for the activity that happens on or through your BGA Account. Try not to reuse your BGA Account password on third-party applications. If you learn of any unauthorized use of your password or BGA Account, please change it immediately from your preferences.


== Your responsibilities as a BGA player ("the Player") ==


The Player is solely responsible for any message, content and information posted by him on the site since, in its capacity as host of the service considered here, under the provisions of French Law No. 2004-575 of 21 June 2004 on confidence in the digital economy, BGA cannot be held responsible for the content posted or transmitted by Players on the Site and on which BGA exercises no control and monitoring.

The Player expressly agrees, under penalty of criminal responsibility or civil liability, that the messages and content he will post on the Site are not likely to (without this list being exhaustive):

The Player agrees to hold only one account on BGA, unless otherwise approved by BGA. We reserve the right to terminate any multiple accounts attributable to the same person.

The Player agrees not to resort to the use of automated systems such as scripts to play or send messages.

The Player is solely responsible for the keeping and confidentiality of their password and agrees not to communicate it to any other player or to use the account, the username and password of another Player.

The Player guarantees the accuracy of information provided to BGA for purposes of registration and agrees to notify any subsequent changes.

The Player acknowledges that BGA reserves, in case his use of the site would be contrary to these Terms or to generally applicable laws and regulatory provisions, the right to - immediately and without notice - deregister him from the Site services and / or to block his access to the Site.

BGA reserves, assuming the Player would be responsible for an offense under the legislation or for affecting the rights of third parties, the right to provide, upon request of any legitimate authority (courts, administrative authorities, police), all information allowing or facilitating the identification of the offending Player.

The Player is required to notify BGA, using the "Report this player" function, of any misuse of the Site of which he has knowledge, including any message whose contents violates the above prohibitions or more generally applicable laws and regulatory provisions.


== Privacy and Copyright Protection ==


BGA's [http://boardgamearena.com/#!doc/privacy privacy policies] explain how we treat your personal data and protect your privacy when you use our Services. By using our Services, you agree that BGA can use such data in accordance with our privacy policies.

We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement and terminate accounts of repeat infringers according to the process set out in France and the European Union.

If you think somebody is violating your copyrights and want to notify us, you can contact us directly though our "Contact" section.

BGA uses cookies. Cookies are stored on the computer of the subscriber, to record information relating to the navigation of the computer on the Site (such as pages viewed, date and time of visit, etc.) that BGA can read during subsequent visits. This allows for easier navigation and avoids having to provide at each new visit information that was already sent at an earlier date. It is stated that the shelf life of "cookies" created by BGA is less than 6 (six) months. BGA notifies the Player that the settings of his browser allows him to be alerted of the presence of "cookies" and to disable the use of "cookies" should he want to do so.


== Your Content in our Services ==


Some of our Services allow you to upload, submit, store, send or receive content. You retain ownership of any intellectual property rights that you hold in that content. In short, what belongs to you stays yours.

When you upload, submit, store, send or receive content to or through our Services, you give BGA (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations or other changes we make so that your content works better with our Services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our Services, and to develop new ones. This license continues even if you stop using our Services. Some Services may offer you ways to access and remove content that has been provided to that Service. Also, in some of our Services, there are terms or settings that narrow the scope of our use of the content submitted in those Services. Make sure you have the necessary rights to grant us this license for any content that you submit to our Services.

Our automated systems analyze your content to provide you personally relevant features. This analysis occurs as the content is sent, received, and when it is stored.

You can find more information about how BGA uses and stores content in the privacy policy or additional terms for particular Services. If you submit feedback or suggestions about our Services, we may use your feedback or suggestions without obligation to you.


== About Software in our Services ==


When a Service requires or includes downloadable software, this software may update automatically on your device once a new version or feature is available. Some Services may let you adjust your automatic update settings.

BGA gives you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable and non-exclusive license to use the software provided to you by BGA as part of the Services. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling you to use and enjoy the benefit of the Services as provided by BGA, in the manner permitted by these terms. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of our Services or included software, nor may you reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code of that software, unless laws prohibit those restrictions or you have our written permission.

Open source software is important to us. Some software used in our Services may be offered under an open source license that we will make available to you. There may be provisions in the open source license that expressly override some of these terms.


== Modifying and Terminating our Services ==


We are constantly changing and improving our Services. We may add or remove functionalities or features, and we may suspend or stop a Service altogether.

You can stop using our Services at any time, although we’ll be sorry to see you go. BGA may also stop providing Services to you, or add or create new limits to our Services at any time.

We believe that you own your data and preserving your access to such data is important. If we discontinue a Service, where reasonably possible, we will give you reasonable advance notice and a chance to get information out of that Service.


== Our Warranties and Disclaimers ==


We provide our Services using a commercially reasonable level of skill and care and we hope that you will enjoy using them. But there are certain things that we don’t promise about our Services.

OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THESE TERMS OR ADDITIONAL TERMS, NEITHER BGA NOR ITS SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS MAKE ANY SPECIFIC PROMISES ABOUT THE SERVICES. FOR EXAMPLE, WE DON’T MAKE ANY COMMITMENTS ABOUT THE CONTENT WITHIN THE SERVICES, THE SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS OF THE SERVICES, OR THEIR RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, OR ABILITY TO MEET YOUR NEEDS. WE PROVIDE THE SERVICES “AS IS”.

SOME JURISDICTIONS PROVIDE FOR CERTAIN WARRANTIES, LIKE THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE EXCLUDE ALL WARRANTIES.


== Liability for our Services ==


WHEN PERMITTED BY LAW, BGA WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, OR DATA, FINANCIAL LOSSES OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF BGA, AND ITS SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS, FOR ANY CLAIMS UNDER THESE TERMS, INCLUDING FOR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES, IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US TO USE THE SERVICES (OR, IF WE CHOOSE, TO SUPPLYING YOU THE SERVICES AGAIN).

IN ALL CASES, BGA, AND ITS SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS, WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE THAT IS NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE.


== Business uses of our Services ==


If you are using our Services on behalf of a business, that business accepts these terms. It will hold harmless and indemnify BGA and its affiliates, officers, agents, and employees from any claim, suit or action arising from or related to the use of the Services or violation of these terms, including any liability or expense arising from claims, losses, damages, suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys’ fees.


== About these Terms ==


We may modify these terms or any additional terms that apply to a Service to, for example, reflect changes to the law or changes to our Services. You should look at the terms regularly. Changes will be effective immediately. If you do not agree to the modified terms for a Service, you should discontinue your use of that Service.

If there is a conflict between these terms and the additional terms, the additional terms will control for that conflict.

These terms control the relationship between BGA and you. They do not create any third party beneficiary rights.

If you do not comply with these terms, and we don’t take action right away, this doesn’t mean that we are giving up any rights that we may have (such as taking action in the future).

If it turns out that a particular term is not enforceable, this will not affect any other terms.

The laws of France will apply to any disputes arising out of or relating to these terms or the Services. All claims arising out of or relating to these terms or the Services will be litigated exclusively in the French courts.
