1. A few important notices—arbitration, refunds and damages
PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 22 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION. IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR PLAYERS IN THE UNITED STATES: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THIS EULA YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. THIS EULA ALSO INCLUDES A LIMITATION ON DAMAGES THAT YOU CAN COLLECT FROM US THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO THESE PROVISIONS.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS EULA, YOU MAY NOT INSTALL, COPY, OR USE OUR SERVICES. WE DO NOT NORMALLY OFFER REFUNDS, EXCEPT WHERE EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED BY US (SEE SECTION 10 FOR EXCEPTIONS), OR WHERE REFUNDS ARE REQUIRED UNDER LOCAL LAW.
OUR EULA MAY ALSO CONTAIN COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ADDENDA THAT APPLY TO YOU BASED ON THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH YOU RESIDE. To see additional terms applicable to you (which constitute part of this agreement and may supersede these terms), please check the country-specific addenda below or the country-specific language on the EULA website.
2. What is this document? When can I play?
This is the agreement between you and us for our services you download or access, whether that’s a game, something that supports the game, or something else. You can only use these things once you agree to these terms.
You are now reading our End User License Agreement (“EULA”) which is a legal agreement between you and Zhejiang Wooduan Technology Co., Ltd(“we”, “us”, “our”, as appropriate) regarding the Services you use from us. The “Services” mean collectively, and sometimes individually, the following: (a) each of our Games, and (b) any websites, software or other services we provide with or in support of the Game, whether or not they are installed or used on a computer, console, or a mobile device. “Game” means our game that you download and access that is subject to this EULA, regardless of where you download and/or access it, and any documentation, software, updates, Virtual Goods and Content (each defined below) included in it.
We’ve tried to be straightforward in this EULA, and if you have any questions feel free to send us a note at customerservice@wizardgames.cn (our “Support Email Address”). You’ll notice that we added some text in italics throughout the EULA to make it easier to read; however, this text is provided for guidance only, and does not form part of the EULA.
3. Defined Terms
You’ll notice some capitalized terms in this EULA. They’re called “defined terms,” and we use them so we don’t have to repeat the same language again and again, and to make sure that the use of these terms is consistent throughout the EULA. We’ve included the defined terms throughout because we want it to be easy for you to read them in context.
4. Additional Terms
Some Services may be available (or only available) through accessing (or downloading from) a third-party platform or store, including but not limited to Steam game platform (each, an “Steam”). Your use of the Services is also governed by any applicable agreements you have with any Steam (the “Steam Agreement(s)”). In the event of a conflict between any other Steam Agreement(s) from which you acquire one of our Games and this EULA with respect to your use of the Services, this EULA will take priority.
The collection of information from you and related to the Services (whether obtained through an Steam or not) is governed by our Privacy Policy at [Not ready yet]. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose information that we collect from and about you.
5. Eligibility and Registration
The Services we offer have certain age restrictions. Others may require an outside account. When you give us information, you need to make sure it stays up to date. Also, don’t share your account with others without our permission.
(a) Age. To create a Game Account (as defined below) and access some of our Services, you must be at least the minimum age for consenting to personal data collection under the law in your jurisdiction. If you are between the minimum age for personal data collection and age of majority in your jurisdiction, your parent or guardian must review this EULA and accept it on your behalf. Parents and guardians are responsible for the acts of their children under 18 years of age when using our Services.
We may allow a minor under the minimum age for personal data collection to register for certain Services with the verified consent of a parent or legal guardian. The parent/legal guardian may be asked to provide additional documentation or perform additional actions as part of the verification and approval process as consistent with applicable law. We recommend that parents and guardians familiarize themselves with parental controls on the devices they provide their child.
(b) Account Creation. To access parts of a Game, you may need to create an in-game account (your “Game Account”). Your Game Account, if applicable, is separate from any account you may have with any Steam (your “Steam Account”). You may be able to create your Game Account using an existing account you have with us or your email address. To the extent you create your Game Account through the use of a third-party account (for example, your account with Facebook or Google), we may access certain personal information that this third party provides to us such as your email address and name to help create your Game Account. Further information about use of third-party accounts is provided in the Privacy Policy at [www.battleteams2.com]. Please note that you may also be able to play the Game without creating a Game Account, but you may not be able to access certain parts of the Game, and your Game data may be deleted if you uninstall or otherwise delete the Game.
(c) Keep Your Information Current. It’s important that you provide us with accurate, complete, and up-to-date information for your Game Account, and you agree to update such information to keep it that way. If you don’t, we may suspend or terminate your Game Account. You agree that you will not disclose your Game Account password to anyone, and will notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your Game Account. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your Game Account, whether or not you know about them. If you believe that your Game Account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at our Support Email Address.
(d) No Account Sharing. You may not sell, resell, rent, lease, share or provide access to your Game Account to anyone else. We reserve all available legal rights and remedies to prevent unauthorized use of our Services, including, but not limited to, technological barriers, IP mapping, and, in serious cases, directly contacting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) regarding such unauthorized use.
(e) No False Accounts. You may not create a Game Account for anyone else or create a Game Account in a name other than your own.
6. License and Use of the Services
As long as you agree to this EULA (and as long as the EULA isn’t terminated—see Section 21), we grant you permission to access and use our Services. If you break the rules or can’t agree, we can’t let you play. Please ensure your system and devices meet the minimum requirements for the Game. Also, if you suffer from an epileptic condition, please talk to a doctor before playing the Game.
(a) License Grant. So long as you comply with this EULA and, as applicable, the Steam Agreement(s), we grant you the following license: a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable limited right and license to (i) download and install the Game on the device permitted by the Steam Agreement(s) (if applicable), and (ii) access and use the Services, including any Content, for your personal entertainment purposes leveraging only the functionality of the Game and Services. We and our licensors reserve all rights not granted to you in this EULA. “Content” means all artwork, titles, themes, objects, characters, names, dialogue, catch phrases, stories, animation, concepts, sounds, audio-visual effects, methods of operation, musical compositions, Virtual Goods (defined in Section 9) and any other content within the Services. Content also includes anything generated, created, or that is otherwise developed within the Services by any user (including you) as a result of interaction with the functionality of the Services. We also grant you a limited license to make gameplay videos for certain Games specified on the Services, provided that you agree that all such gameplay video activity is subject to your agreement to and pursuant to our Streaming Policy in Schedule B-1. We may, in our sole discretion, remove, edit, or disable any Content for any reason.
(b) Content You Create Outside the Services. “User Content” means any Content that you (or other Game Account holders) create or obtain outside the Services that you or another user makes available within the Services. To be clear, if Content is created within the Services, it is not User Content; only Content created or obtained from outside the Services that a user then makes available within the Services is User Content. By making any User Content available through the Services, you hereby grant to us the following license: a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon, distribute, publicly display, and publicly perform your User Content in connection with operating and providing the Services and Content to you and to other users of the Services. Except to the extent prohibited by law, you waive the benefit of any “moral rights” or “droit moral” or similar rights in any country to any User Content. We may, in our sole discretion, remove, edit, or disable any User Content at any time and for any reason, including if we determine that the User Content violates this EULA. We do not assume any responsibility or liability for User Content, for removing it, or not removing it or other Content. We do not pre-screen or review any User Content, and do not approve or endorse any User Content that may be available on the Services or our other services.
(c) Service Limits Based on Where You Live. We may restrict, modify, or limit your access to and use of certain Content, Virtual Goods, an entire Game, or any or all of the Services, depending on the territory in which you are located. Without limiting the foregoing, Content, Virtual Goods, entire Games, or the Services may not be available (in whole or in part) where you are located or may only be available in a modified version, if they do not comply with the laws which apply in your country.
(d) Retail Purchase. We may offer codes or product keys that can be activated in a Game or used to activate a Game on the Steam. Subject to foreign exchange control regulations applicable in your jurisdiction, such codes or keys must be purchased (or otherwise obtained legally) through us or one of our authorized retailers to be valid. If you purchase such a code or key from a third party, that third party is responsible for addressing any issues you have with these codes or keys. Subject to applicable law, we will have no responsibility for these codes or keys purchased from any third party or if any purchase occurred in breach with any applicable foreign exchange control regulations.
(e) Minimum Requirements. The Game may have minimum requirements for the devices and systems on which you wish to play the Game. We may publish these minimum requirements on the applicable website and/or otherwise notify you in writing. For an optimal experience, please ensure that your devices and systems will meet these requirements before playing the Game.
(f) Seizure Warning. The Game may contain flashing lights, images, and other luminous stimulations which may induce epileptic seizures in certain individuals. If you or anyone in your household has an epileptic condition, please consult your doctor before playing any Game. If you experience dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, any involuntary movement, or convulsions while playing, please immediately discontinue playing the Game and consult your doctor.

8. Ownership of the Services
Our Services including our Content and Games are owned by us or our licensors. Our Services may let you upload, post and store photos and other content that you own. You retain your ownership of this content, to which we take a license.
We and our affiliates and licensors own all title, ownership, and intellectual property rights in the Services. You agree not to remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, service mark, or other proprietary rights notices incorporated in or accompanying the Services. You understand and agree that you have no ownership interest in the Services or any Games or Content therein.
The Services (and particularly our Games) may have built-in mechanisms designed to prevent granting one user an unfair advantage over other users (these actions are “Cheating” and the software is the “Cheat Detection Software”). We may add or update our Cheat Detection Software periodically as we may require in our sole discretion. The Services and/or the Cheat Detection Software may collect and transmit details about your Game Account, gameplay, and unauthorized programs or processes in connection with Cheating, subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law. In the event that we in our sole discretion conclude that you are Cheating, you agree that we may exercise any or all of our rights under this EULA, including termination of this EULA and your access to our Services. In addition, if you Cheat in one Game or Service, we may terminate your license to use all of our Games and Services.
Although we are not obligated to monitor access to or use of the Services or to review or edit any Content, we have the right to do so for the purpose of operating and publishing the Services, to ensure compliance with this EULA, to protect the health or safety of anyone that we believe may be threatened, to protect our legal rights and remedies, to report a crime or offensive behavior, or to comply with applicable law. We may (but don’t have to) remove or disable access to any Content, at any time and without notice. We may (but don’t have to) investigate violations of this EULA or conduct that affects the Services.
9. Virtual Goods and Game Currency
We may offer you some cool features in our games for which you must pay. We need special permission to charge your payment method. These features are owned by us.
(a) Purchasing or Obtaining Virtual Goods and Game Currency. Subject to applicable foreign exchange control regulations in your jurisdiction, we may offer certain upgrades and options within our Games that you can buy with real world currency, including, but not limited to, in-game currency where permitted under applicable law (“Game Currency”), character skins, mounts and vehicles, digital cards, experience boosts, gear, and other customizations for your in-Game characters, and other such digital add-on items that may improve your Game experience in some way (“Virtual Goods”). Except as otherwise communicated to you within the functionality of the Game, Game Currency and Virtual Goods are not transferable from one Game to another. You may also be able to obtain certain Virtual Goods and Game Currency without making a purchase, such as an in-Game award. When you purchase Game Currency, Virtual Goods, or a Game itself (each, a “Transaction”), your purchase will be made through the functionality available through the Steam or other platforms we make available to you. Prior to making a Transaction, you should make sure you fully understand the agreement that covers your Transaction, whether that agreement is an Steam Agreement or another payment platform agreement (like our WeGame Platform or a third-party payment processor’s terms). There may be limits to the quantity and number of times you can purchase Virtual Goods, Game Currency, or other aspects of your Transaction. For example, there may be a maximum amount of Game Currency you are able to hold (in-Game) or purchase at a given time, or a maximum number of Transactions you may make per day; these additional restrictions may be communicated to you via the functionality of the Services. We may, from time to time, modify, amend, or supplement our fees, billing methods, and terms applicable to Game Currency, Virtual Goods or to any purchases, and post those changes in this EULA, in separate terms and conditions or in other terms or agreements posted on the applicable website or as part of the Game or otherwise provided to you by us. Except where prohibited by law in your jurisdiction, such modifications, amendments, supplements, or terms shall be effective immediately upon posting and shall be incorporated by reference into this EULA. If any change is unacceptable to you, you may terminate the use of your Game Account at any time.
(b) Your License to Virtual Goods and Game Currency. Virtual Goods and Game Currency are digital items, and your use of them is governed by this EULA and the Steam Agreement(s). VIRTUAL GOODS AND GAME CURRENCY HAVE NO MONETARY VALUE AND CANNOT BE REDEEMED FOR CASH. VIRTUAL GOODS AND GAME CURRENCY ARE NON-TRANSFERABLE AND NON-TRADABLE, IN WHOLE OR PART, AND ARE NOT PROVIDED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES. Virtual Goods and Game Currency are licensed, not sold. Provided you comply with the terms of this EULA and the Steam Agreement(s), we grant you the following license: a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable limited right and license to use any Virtual Goods or Game Currency you gain access to, whether purchased or otherwise obtained, solely in connection with your use of the Game in question and within the Game (unless we otherwise communicate to you that you may use them in multiple Games) and for no other purpose. Unless expressly permitted by us in a specific Game, you may not trade any such Virtual Good or Game Currency with others. We may cancel, revoke, or otherwise prevent the use of Virtual Goods or Game Currency if we suspect any unauthorized or fraudulent activity, and/or to correct any erroneous application of any Virtual Goods or Game Currency to your Account.
(c) Changes to Game Currency and Virtual Goods. Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law, we, in our sole discretion, may modify, substitute, replace, suspend, cancel, or eliminate any Game Currency or Virtual Goods, including your ability to access or use Game Currency or Virtual Goods, without notice or liability to you, such as if we need to temporarily suspend the Game to make updates, have an emergency that requires us to disable our Services, or if we need to ultimately shut a Game down for economic or other reasons due to a limited number of users continuing to make use of the online Service over time. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WON’T ASSERT OR BRING ANY CLAIM AGAINST US, OUR AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS (THE “COMPANY PARTIES”) RELATING TO (A) A CLAIM THAT YOU HAVE A PROPRIETARY INTEREST IN ANY GAME CURRENCY OR VIRTUAL GOODS; OR (B) A CLAIM FOR AN ALLEGED MONETARY VALUE OF GAME CURRENCY OR VIRTUAL GOODS LOST UPON (I) DELETION OR SUSPENSION OF YOUR ACCOUNT, (II) ADJUSTMENTS TO THE GAME THAT RESULT IN THE VALUE OF VIRTUAL GOODS OR GAME CURRENCY CHANGING, OR (III) MODIFICATION, TERMINATION, OR EXPIRATION OF THIS EULA.
10. Refunds
Subject to applicable law (including as described in each country-specific addendum below), or Steam policy, (i) all Games, Virtual Goods and Game Currency remain our property, have no monetary value and are not redeemable, refundable, or eligible for any other alternate remedy for any “real world” money or anything of monetary value, unless they are defective, unavailable, or do not perform in accordance with the specifications we provide; (ii) we may revoke your license to such Games, Virtual Goods and/or Game Currency at any time consistent with this EULA without notice or liability to you; and (iii) except where the law in your jurisdiction provides a right of withdrawal that cannot be waived by contract, by purchasing and using any Games, Virtual Goods and/or Game Currency, you hereby waive your right to withdraw from your agreement to purchase the applicable Game, Virtual and/or Game Currency, and you agree that you will therefore not be eligible to receive a refund (or any alternative remedy) in relation to such Game, Virtual Good and/or Game Currency. Additionally, you hereby agree that any withdrawal right expires immediately upon purchase and delivery of your Game, Virtual Good and/or Game Currency, unless the law in your jurisdiction provides otherwise. This section does not affect your statutory rights.
11. Beta Testing
From time to time, we may offer a beta version of one of our Services (a “Beta”). As the name implies, Betas are not commercial launch versions, are not guaranteed to work properly, and may make other parts of your system not work properly as well. For the license granted to you in Section 6 above to extend to the Beta (meaning, for you to have permission to use the Beta), you acknowledge and agree to the following terms in addition to the rest of this EULA:
(a) We may automatically delete or modify the information stored on your computer related to the Beta for any reason at any time during the duration of the Beta test;
(b) We may terminate the Beta test at any time, which would then render your Beta unplayable or unable to function properly. When we terminate a Beta, you must delete the local Beta instance on your computer and all documents and materials you received from us in connection with the Beta;
(c) Use of a Beta is subject to confidential treatment of that Beta and all elements thereof. "Confidential Information" means any information disclosed by us to you, or accessed or provided by you, in relation to the Beta (including any feedback provided and the Game itself). You agree that you will:
(i) not use any Confidential Information other than as necessary to use the Beta in accordance with this EULA;
(ii) maintain Confidential Information in strict confidence and use the same degree of care to protect it as you use to protect your own confidential information, but in no circumstances less than reasonable care;
(iii) not disclose the Confidential Information to any person or entity other than as permitted by us; and
(iv) not make any public announcements related to Beta or the Service, including publishing or disclosing any information (e.g. screenshots and specifications) relating to the Beta, without our prior written approval, which we may grant or withhold in our sole discretion.
(d) Termination of a Beta by us is not grounds for any kind of refund and your participation in a Beta does not entitle you to any compensation or any free Services, including any Content and Game Currency; and
If and when we release a full (non-Beta) version of the particular Game, we may allow your use of the Game to continue to the full version. If so allowed by us, your continued use of the Game will no longer be subject to this Section 11, but will still be subject to the rest of this EULA.
12. Steam; Console Games
If a Game is made available to you via an Steam, or if you play a Game on a console, then additional terms may apply.
Where a Game is made available to you via an Steam (whether on your mobile device or console), you acknowledge and agree to the terms in Schedule A-1 with respect to such Game.
13. Feedback
We’d love to hear your feedback, good or bad. It helps us improve! But if you give us feedback, we need to be free to use it how we want and without paying you.
We welcome your feedback, comments, and suggestions for improvements to the Services (“Feedback”). You can submit Feedback by emailing us at
[customerservice@wizardgames.cn] or via the functionality of the Services (if available). If you provide us with any Feedback, you hereby grant us the following license: a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, under any and all intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon, distribute copies of, publicly perform, publicly display and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any purpose and in any country. This license does not lapse or expire even if we do not exercise our rights under this license within a period of one year. If you have rights in the Feedback that cannot be licensed to us under applicable law (such as moral and other personal rights), you hereby waive and agree not to assert those rights. You understand and agree that you are freely giving your Feedback, that we don’t have to use it, and that you will not be compensated in any way for your Feedback. You represent and warrant that you have rights in any Feedback that you provide to us sufficient to grant us and other affected parties the rights described above, including, without limitation, intellectual property rights or rights of publicity or privacy.
In posting such Feedback, you warrant that your feedback is in compliance with this EULA, and you will not use obscene or offensive language or submit any material that is, or may potentially be, defamatory, abusive or hateful, an invasion of anyone's privacy, harmful to other users, or in breach of any applicable law.
14. DMCA/Copyright Policy

Notwithstanding the foregoing, some countries, states, provinces, or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability as stated above, so the above terms may not apply to you. Instead, in such jurisdictions, the foregoing exclusions and limitations will apply to the maximum extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdictions. Also, you may have additional legal rights in your jurisdiction, and nothing in this EULA will prejudice such rights that you may have as a consumer of the Services.
20. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify (in other words, compensate for all and any losses incurred), pay the defense costs of, and hold the Company Parties and their employees, officers, directors, agents, contractors, and other representatives harmless from all claims, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, costs, and expert witnesses’ fees) that arise out of or in any way are connected with: (a) your access to or use of the Services; or (b) any claim that, if true, would constitute a breach by you of this EULA. You agree to reimburse us for any payments made or loss suffered by us, whether in a court judgment or settlement, based on any matter covered by this Section 20.
21. Termination
We reserve the right to terminate this EULA as we see fit in accordance with the applicable law. Reasons we may terminate this EULA include, but are not limited to: if we wind down our game offerings in your region, if you violate this EULA, or if the Steam terminates your Steam Account.
To the fullest extent consistent with applicable law, we may suspend, modify or terminate your access to and use of the Services, including any Game, Virtual Goods, and Content, with no liability or notice to you, in the event that (a) we cease providing the Game to similarly situated users generally; (b) you breach any terms of this EULA (including the Steam Agreement(s) and our other policies specified in this EULA); (c) the owner of the applicable Steam terminates your Steam Account; or (d) we otherwise deem it necessary to suspend or modify your access to and use of the Services or terminate this EULA in our sole discretion. You may also terminate this EULA by deleting and uninstalling the Game on all of your devices or by deleting your Steam Account. A suspension or modification of your access to and use of the Services will result in your inability to access and use some or all features of the Services, as determined by us in our sole discretion. Upon any termination of this EULA, the rights granted to you will automatically terminate, you may no longer exercise any of those rights or this EULA. Subject to applicable law, we may, in our sole discretion, provide continued access to and use of the Services after such termination.
Where required by applicable law, termination of this EULA does not require a court decision to affect termination or a notice served by a court bailiff as a prerequisite to termination.
Except to the extent required by law, all payments and fees are non-refundable under all circumstances, regardless of whether or not this EULA has been terminated.
The following sections will survive termination of this EULA: 8 (first two sentences only), 13, 19, 20, 22 through 25, and this sentence of Section 21.
22. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
You are agreeing to Laws of Hongkong. If there is a dispute between us, we agree it’ll be resolved through arbitration, with each of us paying our own costs.
(a) Governing Law. You agree that any dispute, controversy, difference, or claim arising out of or relating to this EULA, a Game, or the Services, including the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination thereof or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to this EULA, a Game, or the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong without reference to choice of law rules and not including the provisions of the 1980 U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract will be construed against the drafter will not apply to this EULA.
(b) Dispute Resolution. Any Dispute will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) (“SIAC”) under the Arbitration Rules of the HKIAC in force at the time of delivery of the arbitration notice, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this clause.
(c) Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with laws of Hong Kong with the seat of the arbitration in Hong Kong, and the language of the proceedings will be in English. The Tribunal will consist of three (3) arbitrators, with each party nominating one arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the arbitration notice. The appointment of such arbitrators will be confirmed by the HKIAC, and both arbitrators will be instructed to and will agree on the third arbitrator within ten (10) days of their confirmation by the HKIAC. Should either party fail to appoint an arbitrator, or should the two arbitrators fail within ten (10) days to reach agreement on the third arbitrator, such arbitrator(s) will be appointed by the Secretary General of the HIKAC. The arbitrators will award only such damages as are permitted to be awarded pursuant to this EULA.
(d) Costs. Each party will pay its own costs and expenses (including, without limitation, counsel fees) of any such arbitration; provided, however, that the parties will equally share the fees and expenses of the arbitrators.
(e) Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this EULA, either party may always apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for an injunction or any other legal or equitable relief.
23. No Assignment
You cannot transfer or assign this EULA to anyone else.
You may not assign or transfer this EULA, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer this EULA, without such consent, will be null and void. Notwithstanding the title of this Section, we may freely assign or transfer this EULA without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, this EULA will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.
24. Miscellaneous
This EULA is our whole agreement (no outside promises). The official version is English. If parts of this EULA don’t apply, the rest remains as much as possible. If we don’t enforce part of this EULA, it doesn’t mean we won’t in the future or we won’t enforce our other rights. Also, except for Steams, no one other than you or us can enforce this EULA.
(a) Entire Agreement. This EULA and any other document or information referred to in this EULA constitutes the entire and exclusive understanding between you and us regarding the Services and supersede any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between you and us regarding the Services.
(b) Language. The original language of this EULA is in English; any translations are provided for reference purposes only. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you waive any right you may have under the law of your country to have this EULA written or construed in any other language.
(c) Severability. This EULA describes certain legal rights. You may have other rights under the laws of your jurisdiction. This EULA does not change your rights under the laws of your jurisdiction if the laws of your jurisdiction do not permit it to do so. As noted above, limitations and exclusions of warranties and remedies in this EULA may not apply to you because your jurisdiction may not allow them in your particular circumstance. In the event that certain provisions of this EULA are held by a court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, those provisions will be enforced only to the furthest extent possible under applicable law, the remaining terms of this EULA will remain in full force and effect.
(d) No Waiver. Your and our actions or inactions will not create any other rights under this EULA except as what is explicitly written within this EULA. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of this EULA will not be considered a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by one of our duly authorized representatives. Except as expressly set forth in this EULA, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under this EULA will be without prejudice to its other remedies under this EULA or otherwise.
(e) Third-Party Rights. Except as described in Section 12, a person who is not a party to this EULA will have no right under to enforce any of its terms.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION FOR PLAYERS IN THE UNITED STATES: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THIS EULA YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. THIS EULA ALSO INCLUDES A LIMITATION ON DAMAGES THAT YOU CAN COLLECT FROM US THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO THESE PROVISIONS.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS EULA, YOU MAY NOT INSTALL, COPY, OR USE OUR SERVICES. WE DO NOT NORMALLY OFFER REFUNDS, EXCEPT WHERE EXPRESSLY AUTHORIZED BY US (SEE SECTION 10 FOR EXCEPTIONS), OR WHERE REFUNDS ARE REQUIRED UNDER LOCAL LAW.
OUR EULA MAY ALSO CONTAIN COUNTRY-SPECIFIC ADDENDA THAT APPLY TO YOU BASED ON THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH YOU RESIDE. To see additional terms applicable to you (which constitute part of this agreement and may supersede these terms), please check the country-specific addenda below or the country-specific language on the EULA website.
2. What is this document? When can I play?
This is the agreement between you and us for our services you download or access, whether that’s a game, something that supports the game, or something else. You can only use these things once you agree to these terms.
You are now reading our End User License Agreement (“EULA”) which is a legal agreement between you and Zhejiang Wooduan Technology Co., Ltd(“we”, “us”, “our”, as appropriate) regarding the Services you use from us. The “Services” mean collectively, and sometimes individually, the following: (a) each of our Games, and (b) any websites, software or other services we provide with or in support of the Game, whether or not they are installed or used on a computer, console, or a mobile device. “Game” means our game that you download and access that is subject to this EULA, regardless of where you download and/or access it, and any documentation, software, updates, Virtual Goods and Content (each defined below) included in it.
We’ve tried to be straightforward in this EULA, and if you have any questions feel free to send us a note at customerservice@wizardgames.cn (our “Support Email Address”). You’ll notice that we added some text in italics throughout the EULA to make it easier to read; however, this text is provided for guidance only, and does not form part of the EULA.
3. Defined Terms
You’ll notice some capitalized terms in this EULA. They’re called “defined terms,” and we use them so we don’t have to repeat the same language again and again, and to make sure that the use of these terms is consistent throughout the EULA. We’ve included the defined terms throughout because we want it to be easy for you to read them in context.
4. Additional Terms
Some Services may be available (or only available) through accessing (or downloading from) a third-party platform or store, including but not limited to Steam game platform (each, an “Steam”). Your use of the Services is also governed by any applicable agreements you have with any Steam (the “Steam Agreement(s)”). In the event of a conflict between any other Steam Agreement(s) from which you acquire one of our Games and this EULA with respect to your use of the Services, this EULA will take priority.
The collection of information from you and related to the Services (whether obtained through an Steam or not) is governed by our Privacy Policy at [Not ready yet]. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose information that we collect from and about you.
5. Eligibility and Registration
The Services we offer have certain age restrictions. Others may require an outside account. When you give us information, you need to make sure it stays up to date. Also, don’t share your account with others without our permission.
(a) Age. To create a Game Account (as defined below) and access some of our Services, you must be at least the minimum age for consenting to personal data collection under the law in your jurisdiction. If you are between the minimum age for personal data collection and age of majority in your jurisdiction, your parent or guardian must review this EULA and accept it on your behalf. Parents and guardians are responsible for the acts of their children under 18 years of age when using our Services.
We may allow a minor under the minimum age for personal data collection to register for certain Services with the verified consent of a parent or legal guardian. The parent/legal guardian may be asked to provide additional documentation or perform additional actions as part of the verification and approval process as consistent with applicable law. We recommend that parents and guardians familiarize themselves with parental controls on the devices they provide their child.
(b) Account Creation. To access parts of a Game, you may need to create an in-game account (your “Game Account”). Your Game Account, if applicable, is separate from any account you may have with any Steam (your “Steam Account”). You may be able to create your Game Account using an existing account you have with us or your email address. To the extent you create your Game Account through the use of a third-party account (for example, your account with Facebook or Google), we may access certain personal information that this third party provides to us such as your email address and name to help create your Game Account. Further information about use of third-party accounts is provided in the Privacy Policy at [www.battleteams2.com]. Please note that you may also be able to play the Game without creating a Game Account, but you may not be able to access certain parts of the Game, and your Game data may be deleted if you uninstall or otherwise delete the Game.
(c) Keep Your Information Current. It’s important that you provide us with accurate, complete, and up-to-date information for your Game Account, and you agree to update such information to keep it that way. If you don’t, we may suspend or terminate your Game Account. You agree that you will not disclose your Game Account password to anyone, and will notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your Game Account. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your Game Account, whether or not you know about them. If you believe that your Game Account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at our Support Email Address.
(d) No Account Sharing. You may not sell, resell, rent, lease, share or provide access to your Game Account to anyone else. We reserve all available legal rights and remedies to prevent unauthorized use of our Services, including, but not limited to, technological barriers, IP mapping, and, in serious cases, directly contacting your Internet Service Provider (ISP) regarding such unauthorized use.
(e) No False Accounts. You may not create a Game Account for anyone else or create a Game Account in a name other than your own.
6. License and Use of the Services
As long as you agree to this EULA (and as long as the EULA isn’t terminated—see Section 21), we grant you permission to access and use our Services. If you break the rules or can’t agree, we can’t let you play. Please ensure your system and devices meet the minimum requirements for the Game. Also, if you suffer from an epileptic condition, please talk to a doctor before playing the Game.
(a) License Grant. So long as you comply with this EULA and, as applicable, the Steam Agreement(s), we grant you the following license: a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable limited right and license to (i) download and install the Game on the device permitted by the Steam Agreement(s) (if applicable), and (ii) access and use the Services, including any Content, for your personal entertainment purposes leveraging only the functionality of the Game and Services.

Content also includes anything generated, created, or that is otherwise developed within the Services by any user (including you) as a result of interaction with the functionality of the Services. We also grant you a limited license to make gameplay videos for certain Games specified on the Services, provided that you agree that all such gameplay video activity is subject to your agreement to and pursuant to our Streaming Policy in Schedule B-1. We may, in our sole discretion, remove, edit, or disable any Content for any reason.
(b) Content You Create Outside the Services. “User Content” means any Content that you (or other Game Account holders) create or obtain outside the Services that you or another user makes available within the Services. To be clear, if Content is created within the Services, it is not User Content; only Content created or obtained from outside the Services that a user then makes available within the Services is User Content. By making any User Content available through the Services, you hereby grant to us the following license: a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon, distribute, publicly display, and publicly perform your User Content in connection with operating and providing the Services and Content to you and to other users of the Services. Except to the extent prohibited by law, you waive the benefit of any “moral rights” or “droit moral” or similar rights in any country to any User Content. We may, in our sole discretion, remove, edit, or disable any User Content at any time and for any reason, including if we determine that the User Content violates this EULA. We do not assume any responsibility or liability for User Content, for removing it, or not removing it or other Content. We do not pre-screen or review any User Content, and do not approve or endorse any User Content that may be available on the Services or our other services.
(c) Service Limits Based on Where You Live. We may restrict, modify, or limit your access to and use of certain Content, Virtual Goods, an entire Game, or any or all of the Services, depending on the territory in which you are located. Without limiting the foregoing, Content, Virtual Goods, entire Games, or the Services may not be available (in whole or in part) where you are located or may only be available in a modified version, if they do not comply with the laws which apply in your country.
(d) Retail Purchase. We may offer codes or product keys that can be activated in a Game or used to activate a Game on the Steam. Subject to foreign exchange control regulations applicable in your jurisdiction, such codes or keys must be purchased (or otherwise obtained legally) through us or one of our authorized retailers to be valid. If you purchase such a code or key from a third party, that third party is responsible for addressing any issues you have with these codes or keys. Subject to applicable law, we will have no responsibility for these codes or keys purchased from any third party or if any purchase occurred in breach with any applicable foreign exchange control regulations.
(e) Minimum Requirements. The Game may have minimum requirements for the devices and systems on which you wish to play the Game. We may publish these minimum requirements on the applicable website and/or otherwise notify you in writing. For an optimal experience, please ensure that your devices and systems will meet these requirements before playing the Game.
(f) Seizure Warning. The Game may contain flashing lights, images, and other luminous stimulations which may induce epileptic seizures in certain individuals. If you or anyone in your household has an epileptic condition, please consult your doctor before playing any Game. If you experience dizziness, altered vision, eye or muscle twitches, loss of awareness, disorientation, any involuntary movement, or convulsions while playing, please immediately discontinue playing the Game and consult your doctor.

9. Virtual Goods and Game Currency
We may offer you some cool features in our games for which you must pay. We need special permission to charge your payment method. These features are owned by us.
(a) Purchasing or Obtaining Virtual Goods and Game Currency. Subject to applicable foreign exchange control regulations in your jurisdiction, we may offer certain upgrades and options within our Games that you can buy with real world currency, including, but not limited to, in-game currency where permitted under applicable law (“Game Currency”), character skins, mounts and vehicles, digital cards, experience boosts, gear, and other customizations for your in-Game characters, and other such digital add-on items that may improve your Game experience in some way (“Virtual Goods”). Except as otherwise communicated to you within the functionality of the Game, Game Currency and Virtual Goods are not transferable from one Game to another. You may also be able to obtain certain Virtual Goods and Game Currency without making a purchase, such as an in-Game award. When you purchase Game Currency, Virtual Goods, or a Game itself (each, a “Transaction”), your purchase will be made through the functionality available through the Steam or other platforms we make available to you. Prior to making a Transaction, you should make sure you fully understand the agreement that covers your Transaction, whether that agreement is an Steam Agreement or another payment platform agreement (like our WeGame Platform or a third-party payment processor’s terms). There may be limits to the quantity and number of times you can purchase Virtual Goods, Game Currency, or other aspects of your Transaction. For example, there may be a maximum amount of Game Currency you are able to hold (in-Game) or purchase at a given time, or a maximum number of Transactions you may make per day; these additional restrictions may be communicated to you via the functionality of the Services. We may, from time to time, modify, amend, or supplement our fees, billing methods, and terms applicable to Game Currency, Virtual Goods or to any purchases, and post those changes in this EULA, in separate terms and conditions or in other terms or agreements posted on the applicable website or as part of the Game or otherwise provided to you by us. Except where prohibited by law in your jurisdiction, such modifications, amendments, supplements, or terms shall be effective immediately upon posting and shall be incorporated by reference into this EULA. If any change is unacceptable to you, you may terminate the use of your Game Account at any time.
(b) Your License to Virtual Goods and Game Currency. Virtual Goods and Game Currency are digital items, and your use of them is governed by this EULA and the Steam Agreement(s). VIRTUAL GOODS AND GAME CURRENCY HAVE NO MONETARY VALUE AND CANNOT BE REDEEMED FOR CASH. VIRTUAL GOODS AND GAME CURRENCY ARE NON-TRANSFERABLE AND NON-TRADABLE, IN WHOLE OR PART, AND ARE NOT PROVIDED FOR INVESTMENT PURPOSES. Virtual Goods and Game Currency are licensed, not sold. Provided you comply with the terms of this EULA and the Steam Agreement(s), we grant you the following license: a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable limited right and license to use any Virtual Goods or Game Currency you gain access to, whether purchased or otherwise obtained, solely in connection with your use of the Game in question and within the Game (unless we otherwise communicate to you that you may use them in multiple Games) and for no other purpose. Unless expressly permitted by us in a specific Game, you may not trade any such Virtual Good or Game Currency with others. We may cancel, revoke, or otherwise prevent the use of Virtual Goods or Game Currency if we suspect any unauthorized or fraudulent activity, and/or to correct any erroneous application of any Virtual Goods or Game Currency to your Account.
(c) Changes to Game Currency and Virtual Goods. Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law, we, in our sole discretion, may modify, substitute, replace, suspend, cancel, or eliminate any Game Currency or Virtual Goods, including your ability to access or use Game Currency or Virtual Goods, without notice or liability to you, such as if we need to temporarily suspend the Game to make updates, have an emergency that requires us to disable our Services, or if we need to ultimately shut a Game down for economic or other reasons due to a limited number of users continuing to make use of the online Service over time. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WON’T ASSERT OR BRING ANY CLAIM AGAINST US, OUR AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS (THE “COMPANY PARTIES”) RELATING TO (A) A CLAIM THAT YOU HAVE A PROPRIETARY INTEREST IN ANY GAME CURRENCY OR VIRTUAL GOODS; OR (B) A CLAIM FOR AN ALLEGED MONETARY VALUE OF GAME CURRENCY OR VIRTUAL GOODS LOST UPON (I) DELETION OR SUSPENSION OF YOUR ACCOUNT, (II) ADJUSTMENTS TO THE GAME THAT RESULT IN THE VALUE OF VIRTUAL GOODS OR GAME CURRENCY CHANGING, OR (III) MODIFICATION, TERMINATION, OR EXPIRATION OF THIS EULA.
10. Refunds
Subject to applicable law (including as described in each country-specific addendum below), or Steam policy, (i) all Games, Virtual Goods and Game Currency remain our property, have no monetary value and are not redeemable, refundable, or eligible for any other alternate remedy for any “real world” money or anything of monetary value, unless they are defective, unavailable, or do not perform in accordance with the specifications we provide; (ii) we may revoke your license to such Games, Virtual Goods and/or Game Currency at any time consistent with this EULA without notice or liability to you; and (iii) except where the law in your jurisdiction provides a right of withdrawal that cannot be waived by contract, by purchasing and using any Games, Virtual Goods and/or Game Currency, you hereby waive your right to withdraw from your agreement to purchase the applicable Game, Virtual and/or Game Currency, and you agree that you will therefore not be eligible to receive a refund (or any alternative remedy) in relation to such Game, Virtual Good and/or Game Currency. Additionally, you hereby agree that any withdrawal right expires immediately upon purchase and delivery of your Game, Virtual Good and/or Game Currency, unless the law in your jurisdiction provides otherwise. This section does not affect your statutory rights.
11. Beta Testing
From time to time, we may offer a beta version of one of our Services (a “Beta”). As the name implies, Betas are not commercial launch versions, are not guaranteed to work properly, and may make other parts of your system not work properly as well. For the license granted to you in Section 6 above to extend to the Beta (meaning, for you to have permission to use the Beta), you acknowledge and agree to the following terms in addition to the rest of this EULA:
(a) We may automatically delete or modify the information stored on your computer related to the Beta for any reason at any time during the duration of the Beta test;
(b) We may terminate the Beta test at any time, which would then render your Beta unplayable or unable to function properly. When we terminate a Beta, you must delete the local Beta instance on your computer and all documents and materials you received from us in connection with the Beta;
(c) Use of a Beta is subject to confidential treatment of that Beta and all elements thereof. "Confidential Information" means any information disclosed by us to you, or accessed or provided by you, in relation to the Beta (including any feedback provided and the Game itself). You agree that you will:
(i) not use any Confidential Information other than as necessary to use the Beta in accordance with this EULA;
(ii) maintain Confidential Information in strict confidence and use the same degree of care to protect it as you use to protect your own confidential information, but in no circumstances less than reasonable care;
(iii) not disclose the Confidential Information to any person or entity other than as permitted by us; and
(iv) not make any public announcements related to Beta or the Service, including publishing or disclosing any information (e.g. screenshots and specifications) relating to the Beta, without our prior written approval, which we may grant or withhold in our sole discretion.
(d) Termination of a Beta by us is not grounds for any kind of refund and your participation in a Beta does not entitle you to any compensation or any free Services, including any Content and Game Currency; and
If and when we release a full (non-Beta) version of the particular Game, we may allow your use of the Game to continue to the full version. If so allowed by us, your continued use of the Game will no longer be subject to this Section 11, but will still be subject to the rest of this EULA.
12. Steam; Console Games
If a Game is made available to you via an Steam, or if you play a Game on a console, then additional terms may apply.
Where a Game is made available to you via an Steam (whether on your mobile device or console), you acknowledge and agree to the terms in Schedule A-1 with respect to such Game.

This license does not lapse or expire even if we do not exercise our rights under this license within a period of one year. If you have rights in the Feedback that cannot be licensed to us under applicable law (such as moral and other personal rights), you hereby waive and agree not to assert those rights. You understand and agree that you are freely giving your Feedback, that we don’t have to use it, and that you will not be compensated in any way for your Feedback. You represent and warrant that you have rights in any Feedback that you provide to us sufficient to grant us and other affected parties the rights described above, including, without limitation, intellectual property rights or rights of publicity or privacy.

(c) LOST SAVINGS,
(d) LOSS OF DATA, OR

ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS EULA OR THE SERVICES, OR THE DELAY OR INABILITY TO USE OR LACK OF FUNCTIONALITY OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IN THE EVENT OF ONE OF A COMPANY PARTY’S FAULT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, INDEMNITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE AND EVEN IF THAT COMPANY PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

22. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
You are agreeing to Laws of Hongkong. If there is a dispute between us, we agree it’ll be resolved through arbitration, with each of us paying our own costs.
(a) Governing Law. You agree that any dispute, controversy, difference, or claim arising out of or relating to this EULA, a Game, or the Services, including the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination thereof or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to this EULA, a Game, or the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong without reference to choice of law rules and not including the provisions of the 1980 U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract will be construed against the drafter will not apply to this EULA.
(b) Dispute Resolution. Any Dispute will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) (“SIAC”) under the Arbitration Rules of the HKIAC in force at the time of delivery of the arbitration notice, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this clause.

The Tribunal will consist of three (3) arbitrators, with each party nominating one arbitrator within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the arbitration notice. The appointment of such arbitrators will be confirmed by the HKIAC, and both arbitrators will be instructed to and will agree on the third arbitrator within ten (10) days of their confirmation by the HKIAC. Should either party fail to appoint an arbitrator, or should the two arbitrators fail within ten (10) days to reach agreement on the third arbitrator, such arbitrator(s) will be appointed by the Secretary General of the HIKAC. The arbitrators will award only such damages as are permitted to be awarded pursuant to this EULA.

The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by one of our duly authorized representatives. Except as expressly set forth in this EULA, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under this EULA will be without prejudice to its other remedies under this EULA or otherwise.
