Terms of Service

Guiding Principles for Platform Usage

1. Foundational Agreement

By accessing or using Solthanery in any capacity, you enter into a binding agreement with us governed by these Terms of Service. This document establishes the rights, responsibilities, and limitations applicable to all users. Your continued use of our platform signifies ongoing acceptance of these terms and any subsequent modifications.

Should you find any provision unacceptable, your remedy is to discontinue platform usage immediately. We operate Solthanery under these terms, and access implies agreement. There is no alternative access pathway that circumvents these conditions.

2. Age Requirements and Verification

Solthanery maintains an absolute minimum age requirement of eighteen (18) years for all users. This restriction applies universally without exceptions for jurisdiction, parental consent, or any other circumstances. By using our platform, you certify that you meet this age threshold and accept responsibility for the accuracy of this representation.

We reserve the right to request age verification documentation at any time. Failure to provide satisfactory proof results in immediate account suspension. Discovery of underage usage triggers permanent access revocation. We take these restrictions seriously despite the absence of real-money gambling, recognizing that age-appropriate content boundaries serve important protective functions.

3. Service Nature and Virtual Currency

Solthanery operates exclusively as a free-to-play social casino entertainment platform. All gaming occurs using virtual credits that possess absolutely no monetary value under any circumstances. We do not offer, facilitate, or enable real-money gambling, betting, or wagering in any form. No financial transactions occur on our platform beyond its operational existence.

Virtual credits serve purely as gameplay mechanics. They cannot be sold, traded, exchanged for real currency or goods, or assigned value through any means. Accumulation of virtual credits provides no benefits beyond gameplay enjoyment. Any attempt to monetize these credits violates our terms and may result in permanent ban.

4. Entertainment Purpose and Limitations

Our platform exists solely for recreational entertainment. Solthanery is not designed, intended, or suitable as an income source, as gambling preparation, as investment, or as any form of economically productive activity. Game outcomes are randomly generated for entertainment purposes only. Success or failure carries no real-world implications.

Users acknowledge that time spent on Solthanery generates no tangible benefits beyond enjoyment. Virtual winnings are meaningless outside our ecosystem. Gameplay proficiency translates to no marketable skills or career advantages. This is entertainment in its purest form—valuable for the experience it provides, not for any external benefits it might confer.

5. Acceptable Conduct Standards

Users agree to engage with Solthanery in good faith and lawful manner. Prohibited activities include attempting to reverse-engineer our platform, exploiting bugs or vulnerabilities, using automated systems or bots, harassing other users, circumventing age restrictions, or employing the platform for illegal purposes. We maintain sole discretion in determining what constitutes unacceptable behavior.

Violations result in consequences ranging from warnings to permanent bans, determined by severity and frequency. We are not obligated to provide warnings before implementing restrictions. Our decisions regarding conduct violations are final and non-appealable.

6. Intellectual Property Protection

All Solthanery content—including designs, graphics, code, text, audio, games, and other materials—remains the exclusive property of Solthanery or its licensors. Users receive limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to access content solely for personal entertainment. This license prohibits reproduction, distribution, modification, public display, commercial use, or creation of derivative works without explicit written permission.

Unauthorized use constitutes intellectual property infringement and may result in legal action. We protect our creations vigorously and take violations seriously regardless of user intent or claimed ignorance.

7. Service Availability and Changes

While we strive for consistent availability, Solthanery makes no guarantees regarding uninterrupted access. Technical maintenance, security updates, infrastructure issues, or other factors may necessitate temporary or extended service disruptions. We reserve unrestricted rights to modify, suspend, or discontinue any platform aspect without notice or compensation.

Games may be added or removed, features may change, the interface may be redesigned, and the entire platform may evolve or cease operations at our discretion. Users have no vested rights to continued access or feature permanence. Virtual credits may be reset without warning or explanation.

8. Warranties and Disclaimers

Solthanery is provided strictly "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. This includes warranties of merchantability, fitness for purpose, accuracy, reliability, or non-infringement. We make no promises regarding error-free operation, security, compatibility, or availability.

Users accept all risks associated with platform use. Technology is inherently unpredictable, and web-based services face countless variables beyond our control. We've built Solthanery with care and attention to quality, but perfection is impossible in complex systems. You use our platform acknowledging these realities.

9. Liability Limitations

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Solthanery and associated parties shall not be liable for any damages arising from platform use or inability to use the platform. This limitation encompasses all damage types: direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, or exemplary. It includes but is not limited to data loss, service interruption, virtual credit loss, or any other harm.

Some jurisdictions restrict liability limitations. In such jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent local law permits. Given that Solthanery is free and involves no monetary exchange, quantifiable damages are inherently minimal or nonexistent regardless of circumstance.

10. Terms Modification Rights

Solthanery reserves absolute rights to modify these Terms of Service at any time for any reason. Updates become effective immediately upon publication. While we may notify users of significant changes, no obligation to provide notice exists. Users bear responsibility for periodically reviewing these terms.

Continued platform use following modifications constitutes acceptance of revised terms. Users disagreeing with updated terms must discontinue use immediately. Past acceptance does not obligate continued access under previous terms.

11. Dispute Resolution

These terms are governed by applicable law. Disputes arising from these terms or platform usage shall be resolved through binding arbitration under established arbitration rules. Both parties bear their own legal costs. Class actions are prohibited; disputes must be brought individually.

If any provision is deemed unenforceable, it shall be modified minimally to achieve enforceability or, if impossible, severed entirely while remaining provisions continue in full effect. No waiver of any term constitutes ongoing or future waiver.

12. Communication and Inquiries

Questions regarding these Terms of Service may be directed through platform contact channels. We endeavor to respond to legitimate inquiries but guarantee no response time or obligation to address all communications. By using Solthanery, you acknowledge understanding these terms and agree to all provisions herein.
