    3. User Account

    3.1. Use of the Account.

    Any person who wishes to use one of the services offered on the Service must first open an Account. The opening of the Account is free. At the time of registration, you agree to provide accurate data, and to inform us of any changes to such data.

    ONLY you can use YOUR ACCOUNT and you can only use A SINGLE ACCOUNT.

    • You must not disclose your password, nor must you authorise a third party to access or use the Service via your Account.
    • Any loan, sharing, exchange, gift, or sale of an Account is strictly forbidden.
    • You must not access the Account of others.
    • The use of any Account used by more than one person is specified as an “Account loan”.
    • The use and/or creation of more than one Account per person is specified as “Multi-Account use”. These two uses are strictly prohibited.
    • MyHordes may conduct audits to ensure compliance with these conditions. Any offence may be liable to the permanent deletion of your Account and the Accounts in offence without notice or compensation.

    MyHordes reserves the right to limit the number of registrations and use of Accounts per household.

    3.2. Security.

    You are responsible for the security of your Account and the reliability of your connection data.

    MyHordes disclaims all liability in the event of access to an Account by a third person (including when the identification on our Service is carried out via a third party service, as for example EternalTwin). You are the only one responsible for the activities undertaken through your Account. You must not allow a third party to access and/or use the Service on your behalf.

    If you suspect a misuse of your Account or any other breach of security of the Service, you must notify us immediately via the Technical Support (https://myhordes.eu/pm/group/support).

    3.3. Password.

    The User can choose a password when registering to the Service, (or at a later date). It is strictly confidential and should never be communicated to a third party. MyHordes can put in place automated procedures allowing the User to retrieve or change a password.

    To retrieve a forgotten password, the User must have indicated in advance a means, among those proposed by the Service, to transmit information in a confidential manner (indicating an e-mail address for example). The User is solely responsible for any information sent by this means.

    If no means of password recovery has been specified beforehand by the User, the password will not be transmitted.

    3.4. Service access to minors.

    Minors may not open an Account or use the Service unless assisted by a legal guardian, and under the full responsibility of the latter.

    Also, if you authorise or allow a minor to open an Account, and play on the Service:

    • You declare that you are the parent or legal guardian of this minor;
    • you acknowledge that you are aware that certain features of the Service, or content available through the Service, may contain or expose Users to material that is not suitable for minors, and you agree to monitor the use of the Service by the minors to whom you have given authorisation to use the Service.

    MyHordes insists on the fact that it is prohibited to disseminate content not suitable for minors when the latter is likely to be seen by a minor.

    3.5. Account suspension and closure.

    At any time MyHordes may, without notice, proceed:

    • To the temporary suspension of access to your Account, in the case of suspicion of misuse of our Services;
    • the blocking or permanent closure of a User Account following a breach of one or more provisions of this contract.

    If the Service is not used by the User for a period exceeding 12 consecutive months, MyHordes can proceed to the automatic closure of the unused Account.

    The User can also proceed to the closure of his or her Account - the procedure is accessible from his or her personal space of the Service.

    4. Use of the Service in test phases (“beta-test”)

    During the beta-test phase, the User is prompted to perform volunteer feedback on the Service in order to assist in the completion of the Service before its full implementation online. He or she undertakes not to disclose any of the content of the Service during this period and he or she accepts that the Service is subject to modifications and interruptions given the context of experimentation. The User acknowledges that he or she has no right to compensation following collaboration during the “beta-test” phase.

    5. Content submitted by you

    You can edit content - in parts of the Service provided for this purpose.

    Editing can take place in areas accessible to all, (for example - the forum or the public details of the User), or in areas for which you can control third party access (for example - private messaging or a player group). You acknowledge and agree that MyHordes does not control nor assume responsibility for the content that you and third parties put online.

    You grant to MyHordes, global, gratis, non-exclusive, and for the duration of your rights, the authorisation:

    • To use, modify, to represent, to reproduce, distribute, and display your content in connection with the Service - to which you have given authorisation to access;
    • to publish your name, avatar, or other information that you provide in connection with the content.

    If you submit a photograph or another digital image, you explicitly waive the rights of privacy and publicity relating to the image, and allow MyHordes to the broadcast it on the Service.

    You are requested to respect the rights of artists, inventors, and creators. All content such as music, photos and videos may be protected by copyright law. If you share the content on the Service in a manner that infringes the rights of copyright, intellectual property rights, or the privacy of third parties, you are in breach of this contract. You represent and guarantee that you own all the rights necessary to grant the authorisations mentioned in this article and that the use of this content does not violate any law. We may refuse to publish your content for whatever reason. We may at any time withdraw your content from the Service if you breach this Agreement or if we cancel or suspend the Service.

    MyHordes reserves the right to change the Account names, nicknames, the names of characters, and the names of user groups not complying with the rules set forth in the article of Service Use (article 2). MyHordes may also temporarily or permanently suspend Account access or user groups without notice or compensation.

    If you feel that content clearly infringes on your rights, you can report it to MyHordes via the Technical Support (https://myhordes.eu/pm/group/support) or by other means specified in the Service.

    If we believe the content is clearly illicit, we will proceed to its deletion.
