Last Updated: ⚑ TO FILL: Effective Date
The Creator Good, Inc., a Delaware corporation, located at 849 Casselberry Way, Littleton CO 80126 is the owner and operator of the Artcade mobile application and all affiliated websites (the “App”). From time to time, we may also allow you to purchase Credits that can be exchanged for the right to participate in, and vote on the outcome of, certain skills-based art contests (“Contests”) for the opportunity to win more Credits (“Prizes”) which can be used to enter other Contests or exchanged for cash, merchandise, or other things of value.
We do not offer, condone, recommend, or encourage illegal gambling. These Contests do not trigger the prohibitions on gambling in the jurisdictions where we operate. However, we make no guarantee that the App is legal in your jurisdiction. You agree to consult with your local authorities or legal advisors before using the App, and you will not use the App if doing so violates the gambling laws in your jurisdiction. Nothing published on the App shall be construed as legal advice. It is your sole and absolute responsibility to comply with all applicable laws. You assume all risks and responsibility for your access to and use of the App. We bear no responsibility for your access to or use of the App in connection with illegal gambling activities.
You must comply with these Contest Rules when participating in, and voting on the outcome of, the Contests. Eligibility to participate in the Contests and to redeem a Prize is contingent upon fulfilling the requirements set forth in these Contest Rules. By participating in the Contests, you agree to these Contest Rules and our Terms of Service. These Contest Rules are intended to be read in conjunction with the Terms of Service, and the Terms of Service are incorporated herein by reference. The capitalized words used in these Contest Rules have the same meaning as assigned to those words in the Terms of Service. In the event of any conflict between these Contest Rules and the Terms of Service, these Contest Rules will prevail. The Contests and your participation therein are subject to all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.
We reserve the right to revise these Contest Rules at any time by updating this document and the Last Updated date above. Whenever we amend these Contest Rules, we will notify you upon your next visit to the App, and you will be required to re-confirm your acceptance prior to participating in the Contests. If you do not agree to the amended Contest Rules, you are not eligible to participate in the Contests.
Eligibility
You may exchange Credits for the right to participate in, and vote on the outcome of, the Contests, if you (i) are a registered user of the App, (ii) reside in the United States, (iii) do not reside in Arizona, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Louisiana, Maryland, Montana, South Carolina, South Dakota, or Tennessee nor any other jurisdiction where use of the App is illegal or otherwise prohibited (“Prohibited Jurisdictions”), (iv) are at least 18 years old and the age of majority in your jurisdiction, (v) are not on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals, (vi) are not an immediate family member of any of our employees, independent contractors, or agents, (vii) have provided valid and current payment information and any other necessary verification documentation that we request from you, and (viii) purchased or otherwise obtained Credits that have not yet been exchanged. The Contests are void where prohibited. We reserve the right to suspend access to and participation in the Contests, and terminate the accounts of any users residing in any additional jurisdiction at any time, in our discretion.
Geolocation Policy: As detailed in our Geolocation Policy, we access the geolocation of all users using state-of-the-art geolocation technology for the purposes of determining whether such users are eligible to participate in the Contests, and we geoblock users that are not eligible to participate in the Contests. You will not use a virtual private network, proxy server, or other means to circumvent our geoblocking software.
Self-Exclusion Policy: While not required by law, we voluntarily operate a self-exclusion policy whereby any user may elect to send an email to inquiries@thecreatorgood.org with your email address, username, and full legal name to withdraw eligibility from the Contests. If you elect to withdraw eligibility from the Contests, you understand and agree that you will forfeit all right and ability to participate in the Contests as well as all unused Entry Fees and any unredeemed Prizes. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to (i) delete your account within ten (10) business days of receipt of your self-exclusion request, and (ii) ensure that you are not able to open a new account with that email address, username, or legal name in the future. See our Fair Gaming Policy for additional details.
Entry Fee
To participate in and vote on the outcome of the Contests, you must connect a valid and current payment method, purchase Credits, and exchange those Credits for the right to access and use the paid features associated with that Contest (“Entry Fee”). The Entry Fees associated with each particular Contest are prominently displayed on the App prior to the start of that Contest.
From time to time, we may allow you to participate in free-to-enter games similar to the Contests without paying an Entry Fee (“Games”). However, you understand and agree that the Games are not Contests, and that you will not be eligible to win any Prizes in relation to your participation in the Games. Only participants of Contests entered by paying an Entry Fee are eligible for Prizes.
Contests
Our servers are the official time-keeping device of the Contests. Each Contest begins when the participation period starts, and each Contest ends at the voting deadline. Each participation period starts when the participation timer starts, and each participation period ends when the participation timer ends. Voting opens immediately after the participation timer ends, and voting is closed on the voting deadline. The participation period and the voting deadline of each Contest varies and will be prominently displayed on the App prior to the start of each Contest.
Each Contest tests the participant’s ability to master a subjective skill to depict subjects decided by us in a variety of mediums, such as drawing, writing, capturing photography, and/or capturing videography. The medium of the Contest will be prominently displayed on the App prior to the start of each Contest, but the subject of the Contest (meaning the subject to be depicted by the participants in the relevant medium) will not be revealed until the participation time starts.
We may allow you to enter new Contests after any current Contest ends or is terminated; however, we reserve the right to limit or rescind your ability to enter new Contests at any time, for any reason. We further reserve the right to cancel, pause, modify, or suspend any or all Contests, or any part thereof, with immediate effect owing to events or circumstances outside of our reasonable control. Any event or circumstance impairing the proper functioning or integrity of any Contest, and any corrective action related thereto, will be determined by the App in our sole discretion.
Odds
The odds of winning any specific Contest is primarily determined by your skill in the Contest relative to the skill of the other participants in the Contest. For this reason, we may suggest participants to you based on your experience level and prior participation statistics, and we may permit you to enter or reject Contests based on these suggestions.
Prizes
The value of each Prize will be prominently displayed on the App prior to your payment of the Entry Fee, and the number of potential Prizes (or the total value of the potential Prizes) may be prominently displayed on the App prior to your payment of the Entry Fee. However, the exact number of actual Prizes awarded will not be determined until the voting deadline, because the number of Prizes will be equal to the number of participants who fully participate in the Contest by making a submission and voting on the outcome of the Contest.
In each Contest, each participant that makes a submission will be given a single vote that said participant may award to any other participant as a Prize. It is in each participant’s sole and absolute discretion to determine how to award their vote, provided such determination complies with the prompt provided by us and these Contest Rules.
If a participant fails to make a submission, said participant will not be given a vote to award to another participant as a Prize, and said participant will become ineligible to receive any Prizes. If a participant makes a submission and receives any votes from other participants but fails to award their vote to another participant as a Prize, then any votes awarded to said participant will not be considered Prizes and will immediately become null and void.
If a participant is provided a vote but fails to award that vote to another participant as a Prize by the voting deadline, that unawarded vote will become null and void, and no participant will receive the Prize associated with that unawarded vote.
Similarly, if a participant is provided a vote in a Contest that was entered by paying an Entry Fee which resulted in a chargeback or other reversal of payment, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, immediately or later deem that vote null and void and withhold or reverse any non-employee compensation associated with that vote.
If any participant cheats, the cheating participant(s) will forfeit their Entry Fee and any votes obtained in that Contest, thereby making the cheating participant(s) ineligible for Prizes associated with that Contest, while all other participant(s) who did not cheat will be charged their Entry Fee and awarded any votes obtained in that Contest as Prizes. In other words, cheating only impacts the outcome of the Contest for the cheating participant(s), not the participants who do not cheat.
If a Contest is cancelled by us for any reason, we will refund the Entry Fees of all participants, excluding any participants who were found, by us in our sole and absolute discretion, to have cheated.
Winners will be prominently displayed at the conclusion of the Contest. To redeem Prizes, you must meet the eligibility requirements above, you must pass the verification process described below, and your details must match those on your payout account. You understand and agree that all redeemed prizes shall be considered non-employee compensation for your participation in the Contests. By accepting payment of non-employee compensation from us, you represent and warrant that you will not use the payment or any portion thereof in the commission of or furtherance of any crime.
From time to time, we may permit you to exchange the redeemed Prizes (i) as Entry Fees to participate in and vote on the outcome of other Contests, or (ii) for cash, merchandise, or other things of value. If you elect to exchange the redeemed Prizes for cash, we will issue payment to you in your selected payment method for any non-employee compensation associated with your account, minus any processing fees based on your payment selection or otherwise associated with your account, provided you have met the minimum payment threshold. You are responsible for providing accurate bank account or payment method details identifying where the non-employee compensation will be sent. You must own or control the account associated with your payment method, and you agree to provide us with such information as we may request to confirm your ownership or control. If we receive notice of any lien or encumbrance against your account, or if we reasonably suspect that a violation of these Contest Rules or our Terms of Service has occurred, we may suspend payments to you until such lien or encumbrance is satisfied or discharged, or until we have determined whether a violation has occurred. We may set off any liability, damages, costs, or expenses that we incur arising from or relating to your breach of these Contest Rules or our Terms of Service against any money that we owe to you under these Contest Rules or our Terms of Service. We may also adjust or deduct the monies transferred to your account for any reason, at any time, without advance warning or notice, including retroactively. The most common reasons for transfer adjustments include customer refunds, fraud, conduct violations, third party liens, garnishments, and technical errors. You shall forfeit all non-employee compensation associated with your account if, due to inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated account information provided by you, we are unable to issue a disbursement to you within six (6) months of the purchase of the license for that non-employee compensation associated with your account.
Taxes
We are not responsible for determining any tax implications connected to your participation in the Contests, and we make no representation as to the tax implications in any jurisdiction. We will not be responsible for any federal income tax withholding, unemployment contribution, workers compensation, Medicare / Medicaid, or any employment-related benefits.
You shall be responsible for payment of all taxes associated with your use of the App, including any non-employee compensation associated with your account. You are solely responsible for declaring, bearing, and paying all taxes, duties, imposts, levies, tariffs, surcharges, and other amounts that might be due under any applicable law. You will be solely responsible for any penalties, claims, fines, punishments, and other liabilities arising from your nonpayment, underpayment, undue payment, or belated payment of any applicable tax associated with your participation in the Contests.
You acknowledge that you are not our employee. If requested, you will provide us with a Social Security Number or Taxpayer Identification Number, so that an IRS form 1099 may be issued where required by law. You further agree to provide any additional tax-related information requested by us. Failure to provide such information to us may result in termination of these Contest Rules and our Terms of Service.
Verification
Before you will be entitled to redeem any Prizes, we may require you to provide valid and current banking information, sign certain forms, provide certain verification documentation and information, and pass certain KYC/AML procedures to our satisfaction. You are not entitled to any Prize, even if the online screen indicates that you are a winner or otherwise eligible for a Prize, unless and until your eligibility and the potential winning play has been verified by us, in our sole discretion, and you have provided all necessary forms, documentation, and information within seven (7) days of any request by us. While we may request additional evidence from you, we reserve the right to reject screenshots and other purported evidence of winning in our sole discretion. If you fail to provide the requested documentation or information in a timely manner, if you fail to sign the required forms in a timely manner, if you fail to pass our KYC/AML procedures, if we determine that you have violated these Contest Rules, or if we determine that a technical error has occurred, the Prize will be null and void, and, except in the case of technical error outside your control, we may suspend or terminate your account.
Payment Errors
If you believe that we have paid you an insufficient amount of non-employee compensation for your participation in the Contests, please notify us of such error immediately. If you do not do so within thirty (30) days after such payment error first appears on any account statement, the payment in question will be deemed acceptable by you for all purposes, including resolution of inquiries made by or on behalf of your banking institution. You release us from all liabilities and claims of loss resulting from any error or discrepancy that is not reported within thirty (30) days of the payment being rendered to you. These Contest Rules shall supplement and be in addition to any terms and conditions imposed by third party payment entities we engage to provide payment services. You are responsible for reviewing and complying with such entity’s terms and conditions in addition to those contained in these Contest Rules and our Terms of Service.
No Cheating, Fraud, or Disruptive Behavior
You will not:
cheat, including (i) exploiting bugs, (ii) tampering with the Contests, such as by utilizing bots or other fraudulent means to enter the Contests without paying an Entry Fee or to gain an unfair advantage in the Contests, (iii) failing to comply with the rules specific to any Contest, (iv) creating multiple accounts to play against each other, (v) tampering with the Prize redemption or verification process, or (vi) otherwise engaging in platform manipulation.
collude with other users, including (i) paying or otherwise incentivizing other users to artificially improve your participation in the Contests, or (ii) otherwise cooperating with other users in a way that unfairly or artificially impacts the outcome of the Contests.
fail to adhere to the principles of sportsmanship.
engage in any behavior that is otherwise disruptive or undermines the operation of the Contests.
If you engage in any such behaviors (“cheat”) or otherwise violate these Contest Rules or our Terms of Service, you will forfeit any Entry Fee paid to participate in the Contests, you will become ineligible for any Prizes in the Contest, and you will become ineligible to participate in any future Contests. Further, we may seek damages from you to the fullest extent of the law. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Contest Rules shall not constitute a waiver of that provision.
Publicity
Except where prohibited by law, your participation in the Contests constitutes your consent to the use of your name, image, likeness, opinions, comments, photograph, voice, geographic data (e.g., hometown, U.S. state of residency), and winnings details by us or our agents for promotional purposes in any media, worldwide, without further payment, notice, or consideration to you.
Social Media Posts
If you post comments on our social media pages or elsewhere during any Contest that we determine to constitute bullying, spiteful, disparaging, defamatory, or upsetting to the App or any user of the App, in our discretion, we may remove, request removal, or demand removal of your comments, and you may be disqualified from the Contests.
Release, Indemnification, Limitation of Liability
You hereby agree to defend, release, hold harmless, and indemnify us and our parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliated companies, officers, directors, employees, independent contractors, agents, representatives, users, media partners, advertisers, content providers, suppliers, and related parties (“Released Parties”) from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, liabilities, and damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your use of the App or your participation in the Contests.
To the extent permitted by law, the Released Parties are not responsible for:
Any incorrect or inaccurate information, whether caused by you, coding error, or by any of the equipment or programming associated with or utilized in the Contests.
Technical failures of any kind, including, but not limited to malfunctions, interruptions, or disconnections in computers, phone lines, or network hardware or software.
Unauthorized human intervention in any part of the Contests.
Payment of any Prizes to any person who does not, in our sole determination, (i) meet the eligibility requirements, (ii) timely provide the required verification documentation and information, or (iii) pass certain KYC/AML procedures.
Any injury or damage to persons or property which may be caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, from your participation in the Contests or receipt, use, or misuse of any Prize.
Under no circumstances will you be permitted to obtain, and you hereby waive all rights to claim, punitive, incidental, or consequential damages, or any other damages or awards, including attorneys' fees, other than your actual out-of-pocket expenses (i.e., costs associated with participating in the Contest). You further waive all rights to have damages multiplied or increased.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR DESCRIBED ABOVE, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Authorization and Permission to Send Emails to You about the Contests
You authorize us to email you notices, advertisements, and other communications. You understand and agree that such communications may contain language about the Contests which is not suitable for minors. This authorization will continue until you request us to remove you from our email list. You understand and agree that even unsolicited email correspondence from us, or our affiliates, is not spam as that term is defined under the law.
Breach of these Contest Rules
We may pursue any legal remedies or other appropriate actions against you if you violate these Contest Rules or our Terms of Service or any international, foreign, or domestic laws, including civil, criminal, or injunctive relief, forfeiture of any non-employee compensation associated with your account, and termination of your account.
Choice of Law
All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation, and enforceability of these Contest Rules, or the rights and obligations of you and us in connection with the Contests, are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware.
Arbitration
If you have a dispute with us arising out of or otherwise relating to these Contest Rules, including any disputes over non-employee compensation awarded for your participation in the Contests, you shall confer with us and negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve the dispute. If you are unable to resolve the dispute with us through direct negotiations, then, except as otherwise provided herein, either party must submit the issue to binding arbitration in accordance with the then-existing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitral Claims shall include, but are not limited to, contract and tort claims of all kinds, and all claims based on any federal, state or local law, statute, or regulation, excepting only claims by us for intellectual property infringement, actions for injunctions, attachment, garnishment, and other equitable relief. The arbitration shall be confidential. The arbitration shall be conducted in Seminole County, Florida and conducted by a single arbitrator, knowledgeable in gaming law. The arbitrator shall be willing to execute an oath of neutrality. The Arbitrator shall have no authority to award any punitive or exemplary damages; certify a class action; add any parties; vary or ignore the provisions of this Agreement; and shall be bound by governing and applicable law. There shall be no waiver of the right to arbitration unless such waiver is provided affirmatively and in writing by the waiving party to the other party. There shall be no implied waiver of this right to arbitration. No acts, including the filing of litigation, shall be construed as a waiver or a repudiation of the right to arbitrate.
