5. Digital Content

The Company may make Digital Content available for purchase or use within the Platform.

All Digital Content is provided solely for entertainment and gameplay purposes within the Game.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, your purchase of Digital Content grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use such Digital Content within the Game.

The purchase of Digital Content does not transfer ownership or any intellectual property rights to you.

Users should not purchase, acquire, or use Digital Content with the expectation of generating profit, financial return, appreciation in value, or any other investment benefit.

Except where functionality is expressly provided by the Game, you may not:

• sell or attempt to sell Digital Content;
• transfer Digital Content outside the Platform;
• sublicense or commercially exploit Digital Content;
• use Digital Content for any unlawful purpose.

The Company may modify, rebalance, replace, remove, discontinue, or introduce Digital Content at any time where reasonably necessary to maintain gameplay balance, technical functionality, security, legal compliance, or the overall operation of the Game.

6. Purchases

The Company may offer Digital Content for purchase through the Platform.

The Company acts as the sole supplier of all Digital Content available for purchase through the Platform.

All prices for Digital Content are determined solely by the Company and may be modified, withdrawn, or updated at any time prior to the completion of a purchase.

All prices displayed to consumers are inclusive of any applicable UK VAT unless expressly stated otherwise. No additional mandatory fees will be added at checkout beyond the price shown.

• suspected fraud;
• payment authorization failures;
• technical errors;
• pricing inaccuracies;
• legal or regulatory requirements;
• suspected violations of these Terms.

Upon successful completion of a purchase, the purchased Digital Content will be made available to the User's Account in accordance with these Terms.

The Company may use third-party payment service providers to process transactions. The Company is not responsible for delays, interruptions, or failures attributable to such payment providers.

7. Virtual currency

The Platform may include virtual in-game currency referred to as Crystals.

Crystals are intended solely for use within the Game and may be used only to obtain eligible Digital Content offered by the Company through the Platform.

Crystals:

• are not legal tender;
• do not constitute electronic money, stored value, or a financial instrument;
• have no cash value outside the Platform;
• cannot be exchanged for real-world currency or any monetary equivalent;
• do not accrue interest or any other financial benefit.

The Company reserves the right to determine how Crystals may be earned, purchased, used, modified, or removed within the Game.

The availability, value, or functionality of Crystals may be changed at any time as part of gameplay balancing, technical improvements, security measures, or other operational reasons.

Unless otherwise required by applicable law, purchased Crystals are non-refundable once they have been credited to your Account.

8. No cash redemption

Digital Content:

• cannot be redeemed for money;
• cannot be exchanged for cash or any monetary equivalent;
• cannot be converted into fiat currency;
• cannot be sold back to the Company.

The Company does not purchase Digital Content or Virtual Currency from Users and does not provide redemption services for any in-game assets.

Any transfer or exchange functionality that may be made available within the Game does not create any entitlement to receive monetary compensation from the Company.

Nothing contained within the Platform shall be interpreted as granting Users any right to exchange Digital Content for real-world value.

The only payments made by the Company to individuals are Affiliate Commissions earned under the Affiliate Program in accordance with the applicable Affiliate Program Terms. Such payments are independent from gameplay, ownership or use of Digital Content.

9. Affiliate program

The Company may operate an Affiliate Program under separate Affiliate Program Terms.

Participation in the Affiliate Program is subject to successful identity verification and compliance with the Company's AML & KYC Policy. An applicant will become eligible to receive a referral link only after successfully completing the required verification procedures.

Participation in the Affiliate Program is voluntary and independent from participation in the Game.

Affiliate commissions are earned solely through eligible referral activities carried out in accordance with the applicable Affiliate Program Terms.

Any payments made under the Affiliate Program represent compensation for successful referral services and are not related to:

• ownership of Digital Content;
• Virtual Currency balances;
• gameplay achievements;
• the transfer or exchange of in-game items;
• the value of any digital assets within the Game.

10. Payments

Payments for Digital Content may be processed by independent third-party payment service providers.

By submitting payment information, you authorize the applicable payment provider to process your transaction in accordance with its own terms and privacy practices.

The Company does not store complete payment card information unless required by applicable law or the technical implementation of the selected payment method.

The Company shall not be responsible for:

• payment delays;
• banking interruptions;
• payment processor outages;
• declined transactions;
• delays caused by financial institutions or payment service providers.

Where required by law or reasonably necessary for fraud prevention, the Company may request additional information before processing or completing a transaction.

The Company reserves the right to refuse or cancel any payment that appears suspicious, unauthorized, fraudulent, or inconsistent with these Terms.

11. Refunds

Unless otherwise required by applicable law, all purchases of Digital Content are final unless otherwise expressly stated on the Platform.

Because Digital Content is supplied immediately by electronic means, you consent to the immediate performance of the contract upon purchase and acknowledge that you lose your statutory right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

The Company may, at its sole discretion, consider refund requests on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the circumstances of the purchase and applicable legal requirements.

Refunds will generally not be granted where:

• the purchased Digital Content has already been delivered to your Account;
• the Digital Content has been used or consumed;
• the request relates to a change of mind;
• the purchase resulted from a breach of these Terms;
• the request is fraudulent, abusive, or otherwise made in bad faith.

If a payment is cancelled, reversed, charged back, or otherwise invalidated after Digital Content has been credited to your Account, the Company reserves the right to remove the corresponding Digital Content, suspend or terminate your Account, and recover any improperly granted benefits.

Nothing in this section limits any statutory consumer rights that cannot be excluded under applicable law or affects your right to raise a dispute or chargeback request with your card issuer or payment provider in accordance with their own procedures.
