Terms for websites, games, accounts, communities, and digital content services.

Version: 2026.06-draft Last updated: 2026-06-04T00:00:00Z Effective time: TBD

This version is a launch draft.

1. Acceptance and Scope

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of websites, games, applications, account systems, community features, virtual items, and related services provided by Vastarch and its affiliates (collectively, the “Services”).

By accepting the Terms, registering, using one-tap mobile sign-in, third-party sign-in, guest mode, downloading a client, entering a game, purchasing virtual items, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and related rules, including the Privacy Policy, payment rules, campaign rules, community rules, minor protection rules, support rules, and any supplemental notices.

If you do not agree, do not register for or continue using the Services.

2. Description of the Services

The Services may now or in the future include:

  • official websites, community pages, campaigns, and information pages;
  • game clients, test builds, preview environments, closed tests, public tests, or pre-release versions;
  • account systems, one-tap sign-in, third-party sign-in, guest mode, support, safety verification, and real-name verification features;
  • virtual currency, virtual items, subscriptions, digital bundles, rewards, and other digital content;
  • community interaction, comments, feedback, user uploads, livestream cooperation, tournament cooperation, and co-created content scenarios.

We may change, update, optimize, limit, suspend, or discontinue the Services based on operations, security, compliance, technical maintenance, regional release plans, review requirements, commercial needs, or user experience considerations.

3. Accounts, Sign-in, and Security

Some features require registration or account binding. You must provide true, accurate, complete, and up-to-date information.

You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials, verification codes, devices, third-party sign-in credentials, and other authentication factors, except where law provides otherwise or where loss is caused by us.

Without our written permission, you may not:

  • lend, rent, sell, transfer, gift, split, share, or trade accounts;
  • obtain accounts through fake identities, scripted registration, device farms, or other abnormal means;
  • acquire account control through black-market purchases, recovery disputes, or other unauthorized methods;
  • impersonate us, our support staff, partners, or other users;
  • use guest mode, third-party sign-in, or one-tap sign-in to bypass identity, risk, suspension, or payment controls.

If you detect account theft, unusual sign-in, payment risk, or other safety concerns, contact Protected email as soon as possible.

4. Use by Minors

If you are under 18, you must review these Terms with your guardian and obtain guardian consent before using the Services. Guardians are responsible for supervising registration, sign-in, spending, social interaction, content creation, and other activities by minors.

Depending on applicable law and operational arrangements, we may apply real-name verification, anti-addiction rules, time limits, spending limits, content restrictions, social restrictions, or other protective measures. Questions about minor protection can be sent to Protected email .

5. Test Access, Wipe Tests, and Data Resets

If the Services include closed tests, wipe tests, technical tests, early access, invite-only access, or other non-final versions, you understand and agree that:

  • test access is a revocable permission to use the service and not a promise of permanent access, payment value, or release entitlements;
  • we may revoke, suspend, or terminate test access based on capacity, compliance, misconduct, confidentiality, regional arrangements, or other operational needs;
  • characters, progress, virtual items, currency, rankings, community content, reward eligibility, or purchase history may be adjusted, rolled back, deleted, reset, or not carried forward to later versions;
  • we may change or disable test content, test schedules, numerical balance, servers, sign-in limits, or paid features without separate compensation.

6. Rules of Conduct

You may use the Services only for personal, non-commercial, lawful purposes consistent with these Terms. Unless allowed by law or by our written consent, you may not:

  • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, crack, tamper with, copy, mirror, scrape, or attempt to extract source code, protocols, interfaces, or data structures;
  • create, use, or distribute cheats, scripts, bots, accelerators, injectors, private servers, automation, or other tools that undermine fair play;
  • exploit bugs, rollback differences, misconfigurations, duplicate rewards, payment flaws, interface flaws, or other system defects for gain or unfair advantage;
  • interfere with servers, attack systems, bypass risk controls, forge requests, alter network traffic, abuse resources, or otherwise endanger platform security;
  • publish or promote unlawful, infringing, abusive, deceptive, harassing, hateful, sexual, violent, or otherwise improper content;
  • use the Services through account trading, boosting, black-market top-ups, fraudulent payments, chargeback abuse, or other unauthorized methods;
  • use the Services for unauthorized commercial promotion, ad arbitrage, tournaments, content distribution, asset resale, or other monetization activities.

If we reasonably believe your conduct harms service security, order, fairness, or the lawful interests of others, we may warn you or restrict features, remove content, claw back gains, roll back data, ban devices, suspend accounts, terminate access, or pursue legal action.

7. Anti-cheat and Security Tools

To protect security, accounts, and fair play, we may deploy safety checks, fraud detection, anti-cheat, behavior analysis, and device integrity tools to identify cheats, scripts, abnormal emulation, mass control, fake device environments, payment fraud, or other risky behavior, to the extent permitted by law.

You may not bypass, interfere with, damage, or mislead those tools. If an account, device, network environment, or transaction is identified as high risk or in violation, we may verify, restrict, freeze, claw back, suspend, or otherwise act on it.

8. Virtual Items, Payments, and Refunds

Virtual currency, virtual items, skins, subscriptions, passes, digital bundles, rewards, test access, and other digital content made available through the Services (collectively, “Virtual Items”) are a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to use digital content, not a transfer of real-world property rights except where applicable law expressly requires otherwise.

Unless we expressly allow it, Virtual Items may not be sold, gifted, pledged, inherited, exchanged for cash, transferred between accounts, or traded offline. Losses arising from private trades, third-party top-ups, shared accounts, black-market channels, or unauthorized payment methods are your responsibility.

Except where required by law, purchases, subscriptions, delivered digital content, and granted Virtual Items are generally non-refundable.

9. UGC, Screenshots, Video Redistribution, Streaming, and Tournament Derivatives

Subject to these Terms, community rules, tournament rules, brand guidelines, and applicable law, we generally allow lawful and non-misleading user-generated content activities related to the Services, including screenshots, short videos, livestreams, guides, commentary, reviews, fan works, creator collaborations, and tournament-related derivative content.

That permission does not transfer ownership of our IP, brands, characters, universe, audiovisual assets, or commercial rights. If content or cooperation involves misleading marketing, unauthorized charging, impersonation, brand damage, rights infringement, leaks of test content, regional law issues, or other improper conduct, we may require edits, limit distribution, remove content, terminate cooperation, and pursue liability.

10. Intellectual Property

All rights, title, and interest in the Services and all related programs, code, characters, lore, storylines, text, interfaces, images, audio, video, animation, models, maps, marks, logos, layouts, and documents belong to us or our licensors.

Without prior written permission, you may not reproduce, modify, translate, distribute, publicly display, communicate online, rent, lend, sell, reverse develop, create derivatives of, or otherwise use that content beyond the authorization granted by these Terms.

For business cooperation, creator programs, tournament authorization, content partnerships, or infringement notices, contact Protected email or Protected email .

11. User Content and Community Moderation

If you upload, publish, submit, send, or display nicknames, avatars, comments, screenshots, videos, feedback, creative works, suggestions, or other materials through the Services (“User Content”), you represent that you have the lawful rights needed to do so and that such content does not infringe third-party rights.

To the extent permitted by law, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicensable, royalty-free license to store, use, copy, adapt, translate, display, distribute, compile, and make necessary derivative works from User Content for the purpose of operating, improving, promoting, and distributing the Services.

We may, but are not required to, review User Content. We may remove, block, limit, or otherwise manage content that is unlawful, infringing, misleading, abusive, inflammatory, promotional, spoiler-leaking, impersonating, or otherwise inconsistent with the platform environment.

12. Third-party Services and Overseas Releases

The Services may integrate third-party sign-in, payments, identity verification, advertising, distribution platforms, social platforms, cloud services, support systems, overseas nodes, or offshore cloud vendors. Those third parties operate their own services and rules.

Where access limitations, payment failures, removals, data differences, or availability issues result from third-party outages, policy changes, platform restrictions, regional takedowns, or overseas release changes, we will provide reasonable assistance but are not responsible for matters beyond our control.

13. Service Interruption, Changes, and Termination

We may interrupt, limit, suspend, change, or terminate some or all of the Services without liability except where law provides otherwise, including when:

  • we perform maintenance, upgrades, migration, repair, testing, or hardening;
  • servers, networks, devices, third-party systems, or payment channels fail;
  • there are hacks, fraud, anti-cheat incidents, safety emergencies, or data security events;
  • laws, regulations, regulatory policy, court orders, infringement notices, or rights-holder requests require action; or
  • business adjustments, product strategy changes, regional release changes, shutdowns, or force majeure occur.

14. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, freedom from errors, freedom from vulnerabilities, permanent access, or satisfaction of your expectations.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, consequential, reputational, opportunity, or data losses, or for the cost of substitute services arising from your use of or inability to use the Services.

If we are found liable to you under applicable law, our liability is limited to the specific order amount giving rise to the claim or the total amount you paid for the relevant service during the 12 months preceding the event, whichever is applicable; if you paid nothing, liability is limited to the minimum extent allowed by law.

15. Privacy, Account Cancellation, and Deletion

We care about personal information and data security. See the Privacy Policy for details about how we collect, use, store, share, and protect personal information.

For privacy requests, account cancellation, deletion requests, or consent withdrawal, contact Protected email . In general, we respond within 15 business days after identity verification, and account cancellation, eligible deletion, and consent withdrawal are generally completed within 15 business days after verification.

16. Updates to the Terms

We may revise these Terms in response to legal changes, regulatory requirements, business adjustments, feature changes, service upgrades, test plans, or overseas release strategy. Updated versions will be published on the official website, sign-in interface, in-product notice page, or another reasonable location, and will take effect when published or on the stated date.

If you continue using the Services after an update takes effect, you accept the revised Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Services.

17. Notices

Notices relating to the Services may be delivered through website announcements, page prompts, in-product messages, popups, emails, SMS, system messages, push notifications, or other reasonable means. You are responsible for keeping your contact information accurate and up to date.

18. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the People’s Republic of China, excluding conflict-of-law rules.

Any dispute arising from or related to these Terms or the Services shall first be resolved through friendly consultation. If consultation fails, either party may submit the dispute to the court with jurisdiction over the registered domicile of Vastarch and its affiliates, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.
