Focus ECG - Terms of Service

Article 1 (Agreement to Terms)

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern the relationship between you (the "User") and Players Making Games ("We," "Us," or "Our") regarding your use of the Focus web application, game, and related services (collectively, the "Service").

By creating an account, logging in, or using the Service in any way, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.

If the User is a minor, they must obtain the consent of a parent or legal guardian before using the Service or making any in-app purchases.

Discord Integration and Bot Usage:The Service includes interactions with our official Discord bot ("Oracle"). By using the bot, you agree to adhere to both these Terms and Discord’s official Terms of Service. We reserve the right to restrict or ban your Discord account from interacting with the bot or our community servers if you abuse the bot's commands, attempt to exploit the verification systems, or violate our community guidelines.

Article 2 (User Accounts)

To access features such as multiplayer matchmaking and inventory, Users must create an account. Account authentication and data are securely managed via our third-party provider, Supabase.

Users are strictly responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials. Any actions taken through a User’s account will be deemed to have been taken by the User themselves.

Account Sharing and Trading: Users may not sell, trade, rent, or share their accounts with any third party.

Article 3 (Virtual Currency and In-Game Items)

The Service may include virtual in-game currency ("Gold") and virtual items (such as digital cards, deck boxes, and alternate arts), collectively referred to as "Virtual Goods."

Third-Party Payment Processor:All real-money purchases for Virtual Goods are securely processed by our authorized Merchant of Record, Xsolla. By making a purchase, you also agree to Xsolla’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. We do not store your personal financial information.

No Real-World Value: Virtual Goods are licensed to you, not sold. They have no real-world monetary value and cannot be exchanged for cash, real-world property, or services outside of the game.

All sales of Virtual Goods are final and non-refundable, except where required by applicable law.

Article 4 (Prohibited Conduct)

To maintain competitive integrity and a safe environment on our leaderboards and matches, Users agree not to engage in the following prohibited actions:

• Cheating & Exploits: Using bots, macros, unauthorized third-party software, or exploiting game bugs to gain an unfair advantage.

Violation of any of these rules may result in immediate account suspension, removal from leaderboards, or permanent bans at our sole discretion.

Article 5 (Handling of Personal Data)

We collect and process User data (such as account details, match history, and device data) to operate the game, maintain leaderboards, and process transactions.

Details regarding how we collect, use, and share data with our partners (such as Supabase and Xsolla) are outlined in our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.
