The User’s responsibility for Content extends to resolving any disputes that may arise between the User or any person because of Content. 

By providing, uploading, submitting, posting, or generating Content, the User grants BlockGames and its authorized representatives and contractors a perpetual and non-exclusive right and license to use, process, store, and transmit, and disclose the User’s Content (a) to provide the Services and fulfill other obligations described under these Terms (b) to further develop and provide services for BlockGames customers. The User understands that in certain contexts its Content may be visible to, sent to, and viewed by other Users and you expressly waive any privacy rights you may otherwise have in User’s Content in such contexts.

The BlockGames may collect User’s information about device, connectivity and use of the Services to allow us to validate eligibility for an account, run Promotions, determine your level of Rewards, and identify bugs and crashes that may affect User’s use of the Services. 

To prevent fraud at redemption, we may require Users to share exact geolocation with us and/or provide access to a video-selfie. The User can continue to use all other features of the Services without performing the required human/identity verification. However, the User may be unable to redeem Rewards in the catalog.

Rewards

Users of BlockGames earn Credits and digital items in exchange for certain activities such as building out their universal player profile, activating games, sharing data from third-party games like reaching gameplay milestones, completing tasks, referral’s and participating in virtual events. The number of Credits and digital items earned for actions with the Services and in games discovered through BlockGames varies and is not the same for all BlockGames Users. Different Users might receive different amounts of Credits, even for identical actions or interactions.

The User can redeem Credits for different rewards BlockGames makes available in the catalog for each User. The rewards may include gift cards, gift certificates, prepaid cash cards, third-party game content, digital items or contest tickets (collectively “Rewards”). The representative value of Credits will be applied against the pre-tax purchase amount (i.e., excluding taxes, fees, and shipping and handling charges) for each Reward. The User is responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes and any other costs of accepting and using the Reward.

The specific requirements to earn Credits may be viewed within the Services or where we present an opportunity for the User to earn Credits. Restrictions apply to earning Credits, digital items and ultimately Rewards, including (i) User’s ability to participate in the Rewards Program itself (ii) the allowable frequency of activities (iii) the number of Credits the User can earn for a given activity (iv) the activities or Rewards available (v) the number of Credits required for particular Rewards (vi) the number of Credits or Rewards the User can earn during a given time frame, which is also subject to the limits Game partners place on providing information about certain gameplay data (e.g. in-app purchases). In-game purchase history in eligible games counts for Users to earn Credits or Rewards only where BlockGames receives gameplay data from game partners.

Credits cannot be redeemed for cash or in any way resold, exchanged or returned for a cash refund, unless required by law. Credits are promotional and have no cash, monetary or other value. While we may use terms like "buy", "purchase", "earn" or "currency" to reference Credits, we do so only for convenience, and such terms in no way indicate that BlockGames is offering real-world fiat currency. If the User do not earn any Credits within a 90-day period, Credits will expire and will not be available to redeem for Rewards. We provide up to thirty days’ notice of Credits expiration in an account that is not terminated if notice is required under laws that apply to the User.

To redeem Credits for Rewards, the User will have to visit the dashboard within the Services to see available Credits and select from the catalog, those Rewards available to the User.

The BlockGames are not responsible for any improper fulfillment of an obligation by the Games or any Third Parties whom the User should contact directly for customer support for problems with games or any Third-Party Components (e.g., when Games does not send information to BlockGames to assure usage is tracked for earning Credits). 

The User understands that we are not liable for the activity of the companies or Third Parties that offer gift cards or other items. BlockGames is not responsible for any lost, stolen or malfunctioning Rewards except to the extent caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct of BlockGames. For instance, the User may be required to use the gift cards within a particular time period, and there may be limitations to their use or redemption. The User should carefully read any terms and policies that may apply, as they are separate from this Agreement, and also separate from User’s relationship with BlockGames. If the User terminates or close the account, the Credits may be burned and eliminated without right to recovery.

Contests

We may, in our sole discretion, run certain contests (“Contests”) for Users from time to time. Such contests may offer event participation using Tickets entry, or incentives for certain User actions, such as reaching certain milestones in playing games or completing tasks in connection with the Rewards Program.

Certain contests  (e.g. sweepstakes) are available only in jurisdictions where applicable laws permit them. Rewards won through Contests will be applied to your account after meeting specific requirements set out in the terms and conditions that apply to each Contest (“Contest Terms”) and will apply in addition to these Terms. The specific number of digital items available from a Promotion will be provided in applicable Contest Terms on the Platform.
