YOUR CONTENT
User Generated Content
10.1. In the course of playing the Games or accessing other Services we may allow you, and other users, to upload, transmit, create or generate data which may include (without limitation) content like your profile picture, your in-Game text or video chat, in-Game artwork, or other content authored or designed by you (whether or not using a Game’s tools) and other software, graphics, audio, video and other materials (collectively UGC) to upload and share with other users on the Online Service (or use yourself) or to send communications to Bossa or third parties.

To the extent that any UGC is derived from the Game or material provided by us you hereby assign to Bossa all intellectual property rights subsisting in the UCG which are owned by you. You further waive all so-called moral rights in the UGC you create. In the event that no assignment of rights occurs, you hereby grant to Bossa an unrestricted, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive right and licence to use and make available any such UGC in connection with the Services in any manner or media and agree that Bossa may use, publish, edit, modify, commercially exploit and adapt your UGC for any and all purposes relating to the Services and our business. Bossa and UGC
10.2. The Services are information and entertainment services and ancillary to this Bossa are involved in the transmission, storage, retrieval, hosting, formatting or translation of third party communications without selection or alteration of the content of the communication, for which the Services are a mere conduit. By installing a Game or using the Services you agree Bossa has no responsibility to review the content of any UGC and that all UGC is made available on the basis that we are not required to and do not exercise any control or judgement in respect of their content. For the avoidance of doubt, the views expressed in any UGC are the views of the individual authors and not those of us unless expressly specified otherwise by us.
10.3. We shall be entitled to remove, restrict, suspend or alter any user account and any UGC (and the ability to share or create UGC) for any reason in our discretion including, without limitation, because conduct or content associated with such account or UGC might be unacceptable as described in these Terms. UGC Rules
10.4. You agree and undertake that you are entitled to make available, or post to or transmit to Services UGC and to grant us those rights set out in clause 10.2, and will not make available, or post to or transmit to the Services any statement, material or other UGC, nor use the Services in any way, that:
10.4.1. is abusive, seditious, pornographic, aggressive, homophobic, defamatory, libellous, untrue, hateful, discriminatory, obscene, inflammatory or racist;
10.4.2. harasses, bullies or intimidates any person or obscures or impedes other users’ ability to communicate or read conversations (this includes the use of any macros/SPAM to either the general playerbase or a single individual to disrupt chat);
10.4.3. involves exploitative behaviour, through but not limited to, third party programs, bots, scripts or other means which are reasonably prohibited by us from time to time, or which take advantage of bugs, unintended errors, or features that have not been documented, to access restricted parts of the Services or gain an unfair edge over other players;
10.4.4. involves selling or trading your Game account or characters, or dealing or trading in currency (whether or not this occurs inside or outside of the game for in-game items), or which otherwise constitutes activity which we reasonably deem against the “spirit” of the Game;
10.4.5. encourages any violation of these Terms or of a TPSP’s terms of service;
10.4.6. is unlawful, malicious, misleading (including impersonation), discriminatory or which gives rise to civil or criminal liability, or which might call us or any of the Services into disrepute;
10.4.7. infringes upon the intellectual property or other rights of any third party or facilitates or encourages such infringement or entails the distribution of any player’s personal information (other than your own, as a private message);
10.4.8. is technically harmful such as the introduction of computer viruses, worms, logic bombs or other malicious software or harmful data, or otherwise attempts to or actually does modify or interfere with the Services or overburden or disrupt any computer or server used by the Services;
10.4.9. may be deemed a marketing or commercial communication;
10.4.10. promotes any illegal or unlawful activity including but not limited to solicitation, gambling or the sale of prescription medicines;
10.4.11. is aimed at persons under the age of 18 or which seeks or attempts to make any arrangement to meet a person under the age of 18;
10.4.12. contains any restricted material, including but not limited to passwords, medical information or confidential information of any person;
10.4.13. constitutes, in our reasonable opinion, cheating or misuse of the Services, or an attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Services or parts thereof, or to the accounts of other users or networks or devices; or
10.4.14. solicits, invites, encourages, advocates, incites or provokes any or all of the foregoing. 11. Notwithstanding the above, some of our Games are an open-world sandbox, foregoing standard tropes and features of other online games. As a result, the experience is, by design, user-lead and free-form in terms of what direction the Game might take. As such we, in our discretion, deem the majority of in-game conduct appropriate. There may be the potential for player versus player interaction in a Game (“PvP”). We may provide in-game solutions for protecting in-game assets, but users should be vigilant and protect themselves from other players who are potential threats to their character. Attacking another player, even repeatedly, is not in itself considered harassment. Certain prolonged cases of harassment (for example only, spawn camping revival chambers) may, in our reasonable opinion, be outside the scope of good sportsmanship and we reserve the right to take such action as we deem appropriate in response to that behaviour.
10.5. If you discover UGC which you believe contravene these Terms, please notify us via the email address feedback@bossagames.com.
10.6. In the event that you breach any provision of these Terms we may suspend your access to the Services or part thereof.
10.7. IT IS A KNOWN RISK OF INTERNET USAGE THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT NECESSARILY WHO THEY SAY THEY ARE. PEOPLE MAY PROVIDE INFORMATION OR BEHAVE IN A WAY THAT IS UNRELIABLE, MISLEADING, UNLAWFUL OR ILLEGAL. BOSSA HAS NO WAY OF TELLING IF STATEMENTS MADE BY OTHER USERS ARE TRUE. THIS IS A DECISION THAT CAN ONLY BE MADE BY YOU. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE EXERCISE SOME DEGREE OF CAUTION WHEN USING ANY WEBSITE. BY USING THE SERVICES YOU ACCEPT THAT THIS IS THE CASE AND ACCEPT THAT YOU THEREFORE USE THE SERVICES AT YOUR OWN RISK. PLEASE TAKE PARTICULAR CARE IN RELATION TO THE DISCLOSURE OF YOUR OWN PERSONAL INFORMATION SUCH AS YOUR SURNAME, ADDRESS, EMAIL ADDRESS, TELEPHONE NUMBER AND PLACES YOU GO.
VIRTUAL GOODS
11.1. This clause applies insofar as the Services permit you to use a third party payment mechanism such as the Steam Wallet or a virtual currency such as Facebook Credits to obtain virtual in-game items (“Virtual Items”).

11.2. Purchases of Virtual Items are subject to the terms of any TPSP through which your purchase is made. To the extent that this clause 12 conflicts with such agreement between you and the relevant TPSP in respect of your purchase of Virtual Items, the terms of your agreement with the TPSP shall prevail.
11.3. You are entitled to cancel purchases of Virtual Items you make through the Services within 14 days, and to receive a full refund.
