5. Scope of Products and Services: Digital Goods Limitation

**5.2.1. As-Is Provision**: All Digital Goods are provided "AS-IS," "WITH ALL FAULTS," and "AS AVAILABLE," without warranty of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or course of performance.

Plain-Language Summary (ZERO TOLERANCE, EXHAUSTIVE)
This is the most critical section. It defines every prohibited item (cheats, hacks, exploits, illegal tools) in detail and lays out the severe, non-appealable consequences: **immediate termination, forfeiture of funds (Donation status), and legal/law enforcement referral.** Do not even attempt to inquire about these items.
6. Absolute and Explicit Prohibition: Prohibited Items and Severe Enforcement Policy
The prohibitions set forth in this Section 6 are the foundation of these Terms. Any violation constitutes a material breach that justifies the maximum penalties available under contract and law.
The Marketplace strictly, absolutely, and irrevocably prohibits the solicitation, listing, sale, exchange, or purchase, or even the inquiry thereof, of any Digital Good, content, service, or User Submission that qualifies as a **Prohibited Item**. This prohibition is absolute and non-negotiable.
6.2. Exhaustive Definition of Prohibited Items
**6.2.1. "Cheats"**: Any unauthorized software, code, or method that modifies the execution of a Third-Party Platform (e.g., a game client or server) to confer an unfair or unintended advantage to the User. Examples include, but are not limited to: aimbots, wallhacks, speedhacks, macro tools for automated inputs, or resource duplication glitches.
**6.2.2. "Hacks"**: Any tool, software, or script designed to gain unauthorized access to, or unauthorized control over, any computing device, network, server, or data store, whether belonging to the Marketplace, another User, or a Third-Party Platform. Examples include: password cracking tools, network sniffers, keyloggers, remote access trojans (RATs), or DDoS/DoS tools.
**6.2.3. "Exploits"**: Any Digital Good or description thereof that documents, enables, or utilizes a fault, vulnerability, bug, or unintended design feature in any Third-Party Platform or software for personal gain or malicious purposes. This includes selling information about zero-day vulnerabilities or unpatched bugs.
**6.2.4. "Illegal Items"**: Any Digital Good or service that facilitates or encourages any activity prohibited by local, national, or international law, including, but not limited to: infringement of copyright, distribution of child exploitation material, promotion of violence, or the sale of restricted financial instruments or illegal drugs.
**6.2.5. Collateral Use**: Any Digital Good that, while potentially having a legitimate use, is advertised, solicited, or intended by the User for use in connection with a Prohibited Item, shall also be deemed a Prohibited Item subject to the same penalties.
6.3. Enforcement, Remedies, and Legal Referral
**6.3.1. Transaction Voidance and Fund Forfeiture**: Any Payment Event related to a Prohibited Item shall be immediately deemed **VOID AB INITIO**. The funds transferred shall be forfeited by the User and retained by the Marketplace as a non-refundable Donation to cover administrative, legal, and investigation costs. No refund or credit will ever be issued for funds associated with an attempted purchase or sale of a Prohibited Item.
**6.3.2. Permanent Ban and Termination**: A single, verified violation of Section 6 will result in the **immediate, permanent, and irreversible suspension and ban** of the User's account. This termination is non-appealable, non-transferable, and prohibits the User from creating any future account on the Marketplace.
**6.3.3. Legal Referral and Cooperation**: The Marketplace maintains a zero-tolerance policy and reserves the right, and the absolute discretion, to cooperate fully with, and refer the details of the User and the Prohibited Activity to: (i) all relevant local, national, and international law enforcement agencies; (ii) affected Third-Party Platforms (e.g., game developers, social network administrators); and (iii) financial institutions and payment processors involved in the Payment Event.
**6.3.4. Administrative Costs**: The User agrees to pay all reasonable administrative costs and fees incurred by the Marketplace (including internal staff time, external counsel fees, and forensic investigation costs) in connection with investigating and addressing any violation of Section 6.
Plain-Language Summary (Purchase Terms)
This details the legal requirements for making a purchase. You must certify the legality of your request and possess valid financial means. The required legal checkbox confirmation is central to all valid transactions.
7. Purchase Terms, Payment Authorization, and Legal Confirmation
**7.1. Offer and Acceptance**: All listings on the Marketplace constitute an invitation to treat. A purchase is initiated by the User making an offer to purchase, and the contract for the Digital Good is formed only upon the Marketplace's confirmation of acceptance, which is contingent upon successful payment processing and the User's explicit compliance with Section 7.3.
7.2. Payment Authorization Warranties
**7.2.1. Valid Instrument**: By initiating a Payment Event, you represent and warrant that you are the lawful holder of the payment instrument used (e.g., credit card, bank account, cryptocurrency wallet) and that you are legally authorized to use it for the transaction.
**7.2.2. Sufficiency of Funds**: You warrant that there are sufficient funds or credit available to complete the Payment Event. The Marketplace reserves the right to employ collection agencies and pursue legal action against any User who fraudulently initiates a chargeback or uses a stolen financial instrument.
7.3. Mandatory Legal Confirmation Requirement
The completion of any Payment Event is strictly conditioned upon the User providing the following mandatory, irrevocable, and explicit legal confirmation:
Plain-Language Summary (No Refunds / Donation)
All payments are final and non-refundable. They are legally structured as irrevocable Donations to the platform. You accept all risk, including the loss of value or functionality of the Digital Good after purchase.
8. Irrevocable Payments, Donation Status, and Assumption of Risk
**8.1. ALL PAYMENTS ARE IRREVOCABLE DONATIONS; PURCHASE AT YOUR OWN RISK.**
**8.2. Finality of Sale**: Due to the immediate, intangible, and easily duplicable nature of Digital Goods, which are incapable of verifiable "return," all Payment Events completed on the Marketplace are non-reversible, non-refundable, and final.
8.3. Legal Status of Funds as Donation
**8.3.1. Irrevocable Gift**: The User expressly acknowledges and agrees that all funds transferred during a Payment Event are legally considered an **irrevocable gift or Donation** made to support the maintenance, development, and operating costs of the Marketplace. This legal characterization is valid regardless of the value or functionality of the Digital Good received, which is considered an ancillary benefit of the Donation.
**8.3.2. Waiver of Reversal Rights**: By completing a Payment Event, the User unconditionally waives any and all rights to initiate chargebacks, payment reversals, or refunds through their bank, credit card company, payment processor, or any other third-party financial intermediary. Any such attempt constitutes a material breach of these Terms and will be vigorously contested by the Marketplace, which reserves the right to recover all associated costs, fees, and penalties.
8.4. Assumption of Full Risk
The User explicitly assumes the entire risk of purchasing and using the Digital Goods. This assumption of risk includes, but is not limited to: (i) the risk that the Digital Good may be rendered non-functional by updates to a Third-Party Platform; (ii) the risk that the Digital Good may be incompatible with the User's system; and (iii) the risk that the Marketplace may cease operations or that the Digital Good may lose all value.
Plain-Language Summary (Delivery & Access)
Delivery is digital, usually instant, but technical problems can cause delays. We are not liable for lost access if the Digital Good requires external platforms (which is almost always the case).
9. Delivery Protocols, Access Methods, and Force Majeure
**9.1. Delivery Method**: Digital Goods are delivered via electronic means, typically through a one-time secure download link, direct file transfer, or automated account entitlement update.
9.2. Delivery Failures and Liability Limitations
**9.2.1. Technical Delays**: The User acknowledges that delivery may be delayed due to unforeseen technical issues, server load, network latency, email filtering, or payment processing delays. The Marketplace's sole obligation in case of a verified, systemic delivery failure is to attempt redelivery within a reasonable timeframe (not to exceed 72 hours).
**9.2.2. Loss of Access**: The Marketplace shall not be liable for the loss of access to a Digital Good if such loss is caused by (i) the User's failure to back up the file; (ii) the User’s system failure; (iii) the termination or alteration of the relevant Third-Party Platform; or (iv) any action by a third-party outside the Marketplace's direct control.
**9.2.3. Force Majeure**: The Marketplace shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, war, terrorism, embargoes, riots, strikes, power blackouts, network failures, or governmental action.
Plain-Language Summary (Intellectual Property)
The Marketplace and all Digital Goods are protected by copyright. You only receive a limited, revocable license to *use* the product, not to own, sell, or modify the source code.
10. Intellectual Property Rights, License Grant, and Restrictions

- **10.2.1. Internal Use**: Download and use the specific Digital Good solely for your personal, non-commercial, or internal business use, consistent with the Digital Good’s intended function.
- **10.2.2. Single User**: Use the Digital Good on a single computing device at any given time, unless a multi-user license is explicitly purchased.
- **10.2.3. Duration**: Use the Digital Good for the duration specified in the product listing, or perpetually, provided the license is not terminated under Section 16.
10.3. Explicit License Restrictions (Prohibited Acts)
You are expressly prohibited from, and warrant that you will not, directly or indirectly:
- **10.3.1. Redistribution**: Sell, rent, lease, sublicense, loan, distribute, or otherwise transfer the Digital Good, or any portion thereof, to any third party.
- **10.3.2. Reverse Engineering**: Modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code or structure of any Digital Good, except as strictly permitted by mandatory applicable law.
- **10.3.3. Derivative Works**: Create any derivative works based upon the Digital Good or the Marketplace Content.
- **10.3.4. Commercial Exploitation**: Use the Digital Good in any manner that creates a competing product or commercial service.
- **10.3.5. Circumvention**: Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary rights notices contained in or on the Digital Good.
Plain-Language Summary (User Promises)
You promise under penalty of breach that your data is real, your use is legal, and you have not, and will not, violate the critical anti-cheat rules (Section 6).
11. Comprehensive User Warranties and Material Representations
You covenant, represent, and warrant to the Marketplace that, throughout the term of these Terms:
**11.1. Legal Authority**: You have the full power and authority to enter into and perform your obligations under these Terms and that doing so will not violate any other agreement to which you are a party.
**11.2. Accuracy of Information**: All registration, billing, and User Submission information provided by you is, and will remain, truthful, accurate, complete, and non-misleading.
**11.3. Compliance with Law**: Your access to and use of the Marketplace, and the creation or use of any Digital Good, does not, and will not, violate any applicable law, statute, ordinance, or regulation.
**11.4. Non-Infringement of Third-Party Rights**: Any User Submission you provide does not infringe upon or misappropriate the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, or proprietary rights of any third party.
**11.5. Absolute Compliance with Section 6**: You specifically warrant and represent that you have not, and will never, access the Marketplace for the purpose of soliciting, purchasing, or selling a Prohibited Item, as exhaustively defined in Section 6. This warranty is deemed material, and its breach constitutes fraud in the inducement of this contract.
Plain-Language Summary (Content Rules)
When you post content (reviews, listings), you grant us a broad, perpetual license to use that content everywhere. We can remove anything we deem inappropriate, illegal, or harmful without warning.
12. User Submission, Content License, and Moderation Authority
**12.1. Content Grant**: By submitting or posting any User Submission, you hereby grant the Marketplace a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, publicly perform, and publicly display such User Submission in any and all media or distribution methods (now known or later developed).
12.2. Moderation and Removal Rights
**12.2.1. Right, Not Obligation**: The Marketplace reserves the absolute right, but has no corresponding obligation, to monitor User Submissions. The Marketplace may, at its sole and absolute discretion, edit, refuse to post, or remove any User Submission at any time, for any reason, without notice.

Grounds for Removal**: Grounds for removal include, but are not limited to, content that: (i) is defamatory, obscene, or hateful; (ii) promotes illegal activity or violence; (iii) constitutes spam or commercial solicitation; (iv) violates Section 6 (Prohibited Items); or (v) is determined to be otherwise inconsistent with the Marketplace’s business interests.

Agreement to Arbitrate**: You and the Marketplace agree that any controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Marketplace, or the Digital Goods (collectively, "Disputes"), including those involving the application or enforceability of these Terms, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules").
**17.2.2. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution**: Before initiating arbitration, the Claimant must first send a written notice ("Notice of Dispute") to the other party via certified mail to the Contact Information provided in Section 19. The Notice of Dispute must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If the parties do not reach an agreement to resolve the Dispute within sixty (60) days after the Notice of Dispute is received, the Claimant or the Marketplace may commence an arbitration proceeding.
**17.2.3. Arbitration Rules and Selection of Arbitrator**: The arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. The arbitrator will be selected from the AAA's roster of commercial arbitrators. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable.
**17.2.4. Location and Procedure**: The arbitration shall be conducted in the State of Nebula, USA, or at another mutually agreed-upon location. The arbitration shall be conducted solely on the basis of written submissions unless the arbitrator determines that a telephonic or in-person hearing is necessary.
**17.2.5. Confidentiality**: All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the decision and award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to enter into an appropriate confidentiality agreement prior to the commencement of arbitration, and neither party may disclose the existence, content, or results of the arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, except as required by law.
**17.2.6. Waiver of Class Action and Jury Trial**: **YOU AND THE MARKETPLACE AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL PROCEEDING.** Furthermore, you and the Marketplace are waiving the constitutional right to a trial by jury. Unless both you and the Marketplace agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
**17.2.7. Severability of Arbitration Clause**: If any part of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the waiver of class action/jury trial) is found to be unenforceable, the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. If the class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, and the Dispute shall be decided by a court located in the State of Nebula.

Plain-Language Summary (Changes to Terms)
We can change these terms, and we must give you at least 30 days' notice for significant changes. Your continued use after the change means you accept the new terms entirely.
19. Right to Amend and Modification Notification Procedure

**19.2.2. Acceptance by Use**: By continuing to access or use the Marketplace after the thirty (30) day notice period, you explicitly agree to be bound by the revised Terms.

Plain-Language Summary (General Legal Rules)
This covers standard legal boilerplate: the terms are the entire agreement, they are independent of each other (severability), and we are not partners or agents.
20. General Legal Provisions and Boilerplate Clauses
**20.1. Entire Agreement**: These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other documents explicitly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Marketplace concerning your use of the Marketplace, superseding all prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, and agreements, whether electronic, oral, or written.
**20.2. Severability**: If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction (such as a court finding the Class Action Waiver in Section 17 invalid), the parties agree that the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
**20.3. No Waiver**: The failure of the Marketplace to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. A waiver of any right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Marketplace.
**20.4. Relationship of Parties**: You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and the Marketplace as a result of these Terms or your use of the Marketplace.
**20.5. Assignment**: You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the Marketplace. The Marketplace may assign its rights and obligations under these Terms without restriction.
