==What’s In This Privacy Policy?==&lt;br /&gt;
This Privacy Policy explains:&lt;br /&gt;

*How we use that information&lt;br /&gt;
*What information we share with others&lt;br /&gt;
*Your rights and choices about your information&lt;br /&gt;
==What Does This Privacy Policy Cover?==&lt;br /&gt;
We are Gwythdarian LLC (“Gwythdarian”, “we”, or “us”). This Privacy Policy applies to StariumXCV (the “Game”) and the Website it is hosted on. Together, we’ll refer to these as the “Service”.&lt;br /&gt;

==What Information Do We Collect?==&lt;br /&gt;
We collect and process different types of personal data depending on how you interact with our Service. We are sensitive to our User’s privacy and security.

When you create or update an account with us, we collect certain information to manage your account, including your account creation date, account status, display name/profile name, email address, login history, password (hashed), and username.&lt;br /&gt;

We automatically collect certain technical and analytic information from you and your device when you use our Service, including your device specifications (device type, model, operating system, browser), gameplay statistics (progression, engagement, retention), network data (IP address, connection info), and usage patterns (features accessed, time spent, navigation).&lt;br /&gt;
We use this information to analyze user behavior and preferences, develop new features, ensure Service compatibility and performance, improve design and user experience, prevent fraud and abuse, and troubleshoot technical issues.&lt;br /&gt;
==How Do We Share Your Information?==&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Technical Service Providers&#039;&#039;&#039;: We may share certain personal data with trusted service providers who help us operate and improve our Service, to analyze how our services are used, deliver content efficiently, enable real-time features, host our services and store your data securely, manage user authentication, and provide content delivery services.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Business Service Providers&#039;&#039;&#039;: We work with certain business partners and service providers to assist with providing the Service to our users, such as to host the Game through Amazon Web Services and process payments through Polar.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Payment Processors&#039;&#039;&#039;: We share data with our third-party payment processors partners to comply with financial regulations, detect suspicious transactions, handle chargebacks, handle payment disputes, maintain payment records, prevent credit card fraud, prevent fraudulent transactions, process international payments, process payments and transactions, process refunds, reconcile payments and accounts, validate billing information, and verify payment methods.&lt;br /&gt;
==How Long Do We Keep Your Data?==&lt;br /&gt;
We only keep your personal data as long as it’s required to provide you with the Service. Sometimes a longer period might be required by law.&lt;br /&gt;

We may also limit our personal data processing for EU users between 13 and 16.&lt;br /&gt;
We take children’s privacy seriously and encourage parents to play an active role in their children’s online experience. If you have any concerns about your child’s personal data, please contact us at info@gwythdarian.com.&lt;br /&gt;
==Cookies==&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;We use session cookies solely to maintain your login state while using the Service. These cookies are strictly necessary for the Service to function and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. We do not use tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies. Because these cookies are not used, &#039;&#039;&#039;no consent is required under applicable law&#039;&#039;&#039;, but we want you to know they exist.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
==Your Rights and Choices==&lt;br /&gt;
We believe in giving users control over their personal data. This section outlines your rights (some of which may be based on where you reside) and how to exercise them.&lt;br /&gt;
=====All Users=====&lt;br /&gt;
Regardless of your location, you have the right to:&lt;br /&gt;
*Request deletion of your personal data&lt;br /&gt;
*Opt out of marketing communications&lt;br /&gt;
*Access and update your Account information&lt;br /&gt;
*Manage notification preferences&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like to exercise any of those rights, please email us at info@gwythdarian.com. We may ask for additional information to verify that you’re the owner of that data.&lt;br /&gt;
=====EU and UK Residents=====&lt;br /&gt;
We are regulated under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which applies across the European Union. We are responsible as a controller of personal data for GDPR purposes.&lt;br /&gt;
Additionally, UK residents have similar rights to the above under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. For more information on your rights under the UK GDPR, you can visit the Information Commissioner&#039;s Office (ICO) website at [https://ico.org.uk ico.org.uk].&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Legal Basis for processing your personal data&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK data protection law, we process your personal data based on the following legal grounds:&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Consent&#039;&#039;&#039;: For personal data collected when you provide it to us directly, we may rely on your explicit consent. In these situations, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time (see “How to Contact Us” below).&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Contractual Obligations&#039;&#039;&#039;: We process specific sets of your data to fulfill our contractual obligations to you. This encompasses actions like account creation, and general Service operations and delivery.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Legitimate Interests&#039;&#039;&#039;: For certain data processing activities, we rely on our legitimate business interests. This includes activities like Service error correction, updates, and improvements, and ensuring a safe user environment.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Legal Compliance&#039;&#039;&#039;: There are instances where we’re legally mandated to process your data. This could be due to regulatory requirements, legal requests, or for the prevention of fraud and illegal activities.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Your rights under GDPR and UK GDPR&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Under the GDPR, EU and UK residents have several important rights:&lt;br /&gt;
*You can request a copy of your personal data&lt;br /&gt;
*You can ask us to correct that personal data, delete it, or request that we use it only for certain purposes.&lt;br /&gt;
*If you’ve consented to our processing, you can change your mind and ask us to stop using your personal data. For example, you can unsubscribe from our mailing list at any time – just click the link in each marketing email.&lt;br /&gt;
*In some circumstances, you can ask us not to use automated processing or profiling about you.&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like to exercise any of those rights, please email us at info@gwythdarian.com. We may ask for additional info to verify that you’re the owner of that data.&lt;br /&gt;
Also, in some cases where the law requires it, we may not be able to help with the above requests.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;

7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury. An arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement. Any supplemental software code provided to you as part of the Support Services will be treated as part of the Service, and as between you and Gwythdarian will be and remain the sole property of Gwythdarian and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian customer support may be reached by contacting us at support@stariumxcv.com. You agree that you will look solely to Gwythdarian in connection with Support Services.&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Modification, Termination, &amp;amp; Monitoring of the Service==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part of the Service) with or without notice at any time. You agree that Gwythdarian will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian reserves the right to monitor use of the Service to determine compliance with this Agreement, as well as the right to edit, refuse to post, or remove any Content, information, or materials, in whole or in part, at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to refuse access to the Service to anyone, or terminate any Account, for any reason, at any time.&lt;br /&gt;

|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. &lt;br /&gt;
IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. &lt;br /&gt;
PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming &amp;amp; Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”).

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
22.7.	No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement will in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect the right of any party to enforce every such provision thereafter.

22.8.	Equitable Remedies. You hereby agree that Gwythdarian would be irreparably damaged if the terms of this Agreement were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that we will be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as we may otherwise have available to us under applicable laws.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.1. Refunds.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;6.2. Inactivity and Termination.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;

==&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;arbitration&amp;quot;&amp;gt;21. Binding Arbitration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;== &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law.

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
22.7.	No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement will in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect the right of any party to enforce every such provision thereafter.

22.8.	Equitable Remedies. You hereby agree that Gwythdarian would be irreparably damaged if the terms of this Agreement were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that we will be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of this Agreement, in addition to such other remedies as we may otherwise have available to us under applicable laws.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;

7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;arbitration&amp;quot;&amp;gt;21. Binding Arbitration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;== &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;

You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;

Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law.

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

==&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;arbitration&amp;quot;&amp;gt;21. Binding Arbitration&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;== &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement. Any supplemental software code provided to you as part of the Support Services will be treated as part of the Service, and as between you and Gwythdarian will be and remain the sole property of Gwythdarian and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a User of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span id=&amp;quot;conduct&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.11.	Upload or otherwise make available files that contain, viruses, Trojan horses, worms, corrupted files or data, or any other similar software or programs that may damage or inhibit the operation of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement. Any supplemental software code provided to you as part of the Support Services will be treated as part of the Service, and as between you and Gwythdarian will be and remain the sole property of Gwythdarian and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

Your Content.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; Any communications or material of any kind that you email, post, or otherwise transmit to Gwythdarian or the public on or using the Service, including photographs, chat, emails, comments, voice recordings, data, art, graphics, questions, or suggestions are known as your “Content.”&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian does not own your Content. By posting Content, you (i) represent that you are the owner of the Content or have all of the necessary rights to share them, and (ii) give Gwythdarian permission to use, re-use, copy, adapt, abridge, amend, distribute, modify, translate, publish, perform, display, develop, reproduce, communicate to the public and to make your Content otherwise available in any form and by any media (whether now known or hereafter devised), including through any on-demand or broadcast service, whether on a commercial or non-commercial basis anywhere in the world, including the right to incorporate any suggestions or feedback into the Service as new or updated features, without limitation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.11.	Upload or otherwise make available files that contain, viruses, Trojan horses, worms, corrupted files or data, or any other similar software or programs that may damage or inhibit the operation of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;

Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement.

==21. Binding Arbitration== &lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement. Any supplemental software code provided to you as part of the Support Services will be treated as part of the Service, and as between you and Gwythdarian will be and remain the sole property of Gwythdarian and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian customer support may be reached by contacting us at support@stariumxcv.com. You agree that you will look solely to Gwythdarian in connection with Support Services.&lt;br /&gt;
==9. Modification, Termination, and Monitoring of the Service==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part of the Service) with or without notice at any time. You agree that Gwythdarian will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian reserves the right to monitor use of the Service to determine compliance with this Agreement, as well as the right to edit, refuse to post, or remove any Content, information, or materials, in whole or in part, at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to refuse access to the Service to anyone, or terminate any Account, for any reason, at any time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may monitor your Content and other communications to evaluate the quality of service you receive, your compliance with the Agreement, the security of the Service, or for other reasons. You agree that such monitoring activities will not entitle you to any cause of action or other right with respect to the manner in which Gwythdarian or its affiliates or agents monitor your Content and other communications and enforces or fails to enforce the terms of the Agreement.

|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;

5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement.

&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service.

&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased.

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin:auto;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;
Gwythdarian may, in its sole discretion, provide you with customer and technical support services related to the Service (“Support Services”). Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement. Any supplemental software code provided to you as part of the Support Services will be treated as part of the Service, and as between you and Gwythdarian will be and remain the sole property of Gwythdarian and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.&lt;br /&gt;

You agree to indemnify and hold Gwythdarian and its affiliates, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any claim, demand, loss, costs, or expense, including attorneys’ fees, made by any person or entity arising out of your violation of this Agreement, state or federal laws or regulations, or any other person’s rights, including infringement of any copyright or violation of any proprietary or privacy right.

==20. Governing Law; Mediation; Jurisdiction==&lt;br /&gt;
The Agreement, and all future agreements you enter into with Gwythdarian, unless otherwise indicated on such other agreement, will be governed by the laws of the State of Michigan. This is the case regardless of whether you reside or transact business with Gwythdarian, or any of its affiliates or agents, in the State of Michigan or elsewhere. Unless a dispute would be governed by the terms of Section 21 below, you agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the city of Muskegon, MI, USA.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For EU users only: In the event of a dispute relating to the interpretation, performance, or validity of this Agreement, an amicable solution can be sought before any legal action.

==21. Binding Arbitration==&lt;br /&gt;
THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;

THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: larger;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;5.2. Conduct Policy.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; You are responsible for your conduct as a user of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
You may NOT:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.1.	Use language that is threatening, bullying, defamatory, abusive, obscene, extremely violent, lewd, sexually provocative or suggestive, pornographic, or which in any manner could give rise to any civil or criminal liability under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.2.	Engage in conduct that could be taken as slurs, hate speech, or attacks on individuals or groups on the basis of race, color, gender, age, religion, national origin, disability, sexual preferences, or gender identity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.3.	Engage in spam. Sending the same message multiple times or to multiple people, or sharing or sending the same content multiple times, will be treated as spam.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.4.	Solicit or advertise for any lewd or inappropriate personal conduct, commercial product, or activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.5.	Use the Service in any way that violates any local, state, federal or international laws or gives rise to civil liability.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.6.	Exploit flaws in the Service or use the Service in unintended ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.7.	Use the Service in conjunction with unauthorized third-party tools.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.8.	Request login information from other users.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.9.	“Spoof,” or use of any means to disguise your online identity or alter original attribute information including, but not limited to duplicate accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.10.	Engage in any behavior that does not support a safe and comfortable environment for all Users, which conduct may include but not be limited to bullying, vigilantism, engaging in any conduct or activity that is threatening, harmful, harassing, abusive, vulgar, hateful, defamatory, lewd, sexually provocative, suggestive, or explicit, inflammatory, profane, racially or ethnically objectionable or discriminatory, or in any manner encourages inappropriate, disrespectful, abusive, or unlawful conduct or otherwise makes the Service an uncomfortable experience for anyone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
5.2.12.	Do anything else that Gwythdarian, in its sole determination, deems offensive or harmful to the Service or to Gwythdarian’s integrity or business.&lt;br /&gt;
==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;

Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement.

 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

==6. Virtual Items==&lt;br /&gt;
Virtual goods, downloadable content, and virtual Quadrans, the in-game currency, (collectively referred to as “Virtual Items”) may be offered for purchase or otherwise earned through the Service. Your election to make a purchase with real currency will be an offer to Gwythdarian to purchase at the prices and on the terms set forth on the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You agree that you have no right or title in or to any Virtual Items. Gwythdarian does not recognize any purported transfers of Virtual Items outside of the Service, or the purported sale, gift, or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears or originates in the Service. You may not sell Virtual Items for “real” money, or exchange those Virtual Items for value outside of the Service. To be clear, Virtual Items have no real-world value and are licensed, not owned.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.	Refunds. Unless required by law or otherwise specified on the Service , all sales of Virtual Items are final when the transaction has been processed and no refunds will be given.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.1.	If a Virtual Item is defective or not as described, you may be entitled to a replacement under applicable consumer protection laws.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.2.	Quadrans are digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium and are immediately available when purchased and processed. They can only be acquired if the User consents to immediate performance when purchased. This initiates the Consumer Rights Directive refund exception for immediate digital performance in which Users no longer have the right to a 14-day refund window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.1.3.	For Users in other jurisdictions, local consumer protection laws may provide additional rights. Nothing in this Agreement limits your statutory rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.	Inactivity and Termination&lt;br /&gt;
An in-game Empire (A “Game Position”) is considered active as long as the User regularly interacts with that Game Position.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.1.	Unused Game Positions. Where a newly established Game Position has had no game activity for ninety (90) consecutive days and during that period no Quadrans have been purchased, it is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
In such a case, Gwythdarian may, at its sole discretion, deactivate the Game Position, convert it into a computer-controlled position, or remove it from active play. This measure is intended solely to manage unused gameplay instances and does not affect the User’s Account.&lt;br /&gt;
Any Quadrans acquired through game play are lost during this process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.2.	Inactive Established Game Position. When an established Game Position (defined by having purchased at least 1 Quadran) is inactive for a continuous period of at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days, the Game Position is considered Abandoned.&lt;br /&gt;
To ensure transparency and allow users a reasonable opportunity to act, Gwythdarian will, where technically feasible, provide advance notice of impending abandonment in the forms of:&lt;br /&gt;
*An inactivity reminder after approximately three hundred (300) days of no activity; and&lt;br /&gt;
*a final reminder after approximately three hundred thirty (330) days of no activity.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Failure to receive a reminder does not affect the operation of the inactivity rules and does not limit any statutory consumer rights.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.	Consequences of an Abandoned Game Position&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.1.	Gameplay State. The User no longer controls the Abandoned Game Position. Gwythdarian may convert the Game Position into a computer-controlled position or remove it from active gameplay systems in order to maintain game balance and technical performance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6.2.3.2.	Game Specific Virtual Items. Virtual items, upgrades, or other in-game assets that are inseparably linked to a specific Game Position form part of that Game Piosition’s gameplay state. If a Game Position becomes abandoned, such assets, including Quadrans, shall be treated as abandoned together with that Game Position and shall not be refunded. &lt;br /&gt;
This does not affect any statutory rights applicable to defective digital content or mandatory refund obligations under applicable law.&lt;br /&gt;
==7. Streaming and Content Creation==&lt;br /&gt;
Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, Gwythdarian grants you a limited, revocable license to create videos, streams, screenshots, and other content (“Creator Content”) using the Service for sharing on video platforms and social media, provided that:&lt;br /&gt;

7.1.	Creator Content must be freely accessible to viewers (though you may monetize through standard platform features like advertisements or subscriptions)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.2.	Creator Content must include clear credit to original creators or sources to Gwythdarian and the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.3.	Creator Content must comply with this Agreement and all applicable laws&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.4.	Creator Content must not imply any endorsement by or affiliation with Gwythdarian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.5.	Creator Content must not contain unauthorized third-party intellectual property&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7.6.	Gwythdarian reserves the right to revoke this license at any time, with or without cause, by providing notice to you. Upon such notice, you must cease distribution of any Creator Content that includes Service content.&lt;br /&gt;
==8. Support Services==&lt;br /&gt;

Gwythdarian is not required to provide Support Services unless otherwise required by applicable law. No failure to provide, or to continue to provide, Support Services will be a default of Gwythdarian under this Agreement.

==21. Binding Arbitration==&lt;br /&gt;
THIS SECTION CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Service (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify). You agree that each Claim must be brought individually.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN AGREE THAT (i) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (ii) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (iii) NO ARBITRATION MAY BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement and this binding arbitration clause.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Any dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, which are incorporated herein by reference and available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Arbitration is a process with no judge or jury – an arbitrator will review the arguments in the dispute and award damages and other relief just like a court would. The arbitrator must follow this Agreement as a court otherwise would. Court review of the arbitration award is limited under the Federal Arbitration Act.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
To start an arbitration, you must send an email to support@stariumxcv.com describing your Claim and requesting arbitration, or we may do the same by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to your address. The payment of the initial filing fees will be made by the party filing the Claim, and any other filing and other fees will be apportioned as directed by the JAMS rules. The arbitration will take place in Muskegon, MI, USA, unless the Parties agree to video, phone, or internet connection appearances.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Except as otherwise set forth below, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Gwythdarian will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given (including any attorneys’ fees and costs awarded), and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
Notwithstanding the terms of this Section, either of us may bring a lawsuit in court for equitable relief, for any misuse or infringement of intellectual property rights, or for any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use of the Service.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND GWYTHDARIAN WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You and Gwythdarian agree that if any portion this Section is found illegal or unenforceable, that portion will be severed and the remainder of the Section will be given full force and effect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section does not apply to Users residing in the European Economic Area, UK, or jurisdictions where mandatory consumer arbitration is prohibited by law.&lt;br /&gt;
