Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using GameFinder (the "Service"), you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Service description

GameFinder is an informational tool that aggregates public game information and prices from third‑party sources. We do not sell games. Links may take you to external stores where separate terms and policies apply.

Our Service also includes social features such as a community feed, Looking for Group (LFG) posts, user profiles, and direct messaging between users. These features allow users to share content, connect with other gamers, and organize gaming sessions.

3. External links and purchases

We provide links to third‑party stores for your convenience only. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or responsible for those stores. Prices and availability change without notice. You are solely responsible for verifying store reliability and product details before purchasing. We aim to include only trustworthy stores but cannot guarantee any outcome.

4. No warranty

The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. We make no warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, reliability, fitness for a particular purpose, or availability. Information may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect. We do not guarantee the accuracy or availability of data retrieved from external APIs or sources.

5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages, or for loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of the Service or third‑party sites.

6. User accounts

You may create an account to access additional features like personalized recommendations and wishlists. You are responsible for:

• Providing accurate information during registration
• Maintaining the security of your account credentials
• All activities that occur under your account
• Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized access

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or for security reasons.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the Service, including by scraping at scale, attempting to breach security, or infringing the rights of others. We may limit or terminate access for violations. You also agree not to automate interactions with the Service in a way that overloads our infrastructure or bypasses rate limits, including excessive use of AI-based recommendations.

Additional conduct rules for social features:

• Do not post pornographic, sexually explicit, or adult content
• Do not post hate speech, harassment, threats, or discriminatory content
• Do not impersonate others or create misleading profiles
• Do not spam, advertise commercial products, or post repetitive content
• Do not share others' private information without consent
• Do not post illegal content or encourage illegal activity
• Do not attempt to bypass our content filters or moderation systems

Violations may result in content removal, account suspension, or permanent ban without prior notice.

8. Intellectual property

Game data, titles, logos, and images remain the property of their respective owners. Our site design, code, and content are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

9. User-generated content and disclaimers

Our Service allows users to post content, including text posts, LFG listings, contact information, and profile information (collectively "User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content, but grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, display, and distribute it as necessary to operate the Service.

Important disclaimers:

• Content moderation: We employ automated filters and manual review to detect and remove inappropriate content, including adult content, hate speech, and other violations. However, we cannot guarantee that all inappropriate content will be prevented or removed immediately.
• No liability for user content: We are not responsible for any User Content posted by our users. Users post content at their own risk. We do not endorse, verify, or guarantee the accuracy of any User Content.
• Contact information sharing: Users who share contact information (Discord, Steam, Xbox, PSN, etc.) in LFG posts do so at their own risk. We are not responsible for any communications, interactions, or issues that arise from sharing contact details with other users.
• Third-party interactions: Any interactions between users that occur outside our platform (Discord, Steam, etc.) are entirely the users' responsibility. We have no control over and accept no liability for such interactions.
• Adult content: While we strictly prohibit adult and sexually explicit content and actively work to identify and remove such content as quickly as possible, we cannot guarantee a completely sanitized environment. Users access social features at their own discretion.
• Reporting mechanism: If you encounter inappropriate content, you can report it through our reporting system. We will investigate and take appropriate action, but response times may vary.

By using social features, you acknowledge these risks and agree that your use is at your own discretion and risk.

10. Privacy, cookies, and analytics

We use cookies, analytics, and performance monitoring to track site popularity, run experiments, count visits, and measure website performance. We also collect and store account information when you register. See our Privacy Policy for details, including choices and data subject rights.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless GameFinder, its operators, affiliates, and service providers from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including legal fees) arising from:

• Your use of the Service
• Your User Content or any content you post
• Your violation of these Terms
• Your violation of any rights of another person or entity
• Your interactions with other users, whether on or off the platform

12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
