<h1>Terms of Service</h1>
|
|
<p class="updated-date"><strong>Last Updated: 5/13/2026</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>1. Introduction</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Welcome to OpenFront. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access
|
|
to and use of our website at https://openfront.io, our game clients
|
|
distributed via Steam, Crazy Games, and other platforms, and our Discord
|
|
bot (collectively, the "Service"). The Service is provided by OpenFront
|
|
Inc., a Delaware corporation ("OpenFront," "we," "our," "us"). By
|
|
accessing or using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>2. Definitions</h2>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|

|
|
distributed via Steam, Crazy Games, and other platforms), and Discord
|
|
bot functionality
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>"Bot" refers specifically to our Discord bot application</li>
|
|
<li>"Website" refers to https://openfront.io</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
"User," "you," and "your" refers to individuals who access or use our
|
|
Service
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>"Discord" refers to Discord Inc. and its services</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
"FFA" or "Free-for-All" refers to any game mode in which players are not
|
|
formally assigned to teams by the game and each player's stated
|
|
objective is to win individually
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>3. Eligibility</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You must be at least 13 years old to use our Service. If you are a
|
|
resident of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or any other
|
|
jurisdiction that requires a higher minimum age for the processing of
|
|
personal data, you must be at least 16 years old, unless local law
|
|
provides for a lower age of digital consent (in which case you must meet
|
|
that age).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet these age
|
|
requirements and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these
|
|
Terms. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from
|
|
a user below the applicable minimum age, we will take reasonable steps to
|
|
delete that information and terminate the account.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>4. Account Registration and Discord Integration</h2>
|
|
<p>

|
|
Service, you authorize us to access certain Discord account information,
|
|
including but not limited to your Discord ID, username, avatar, email
|
|
address, and Discord server memberships.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Discord
|
|
account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.
|
|
You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your
|
|
account.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>5. User Conduct</h2>

|
|

|
|
Service
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|

|
|
that gives an unintended advantage
|
|
</li>
|

|
|
Service
|
|
</li>

|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<h2>6. Fair Play and Competitive Integrity</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
OpenFront is a competitive multiplayer game and we take competitive
|
|
integrity seriously. In addition to the conduct rules in Section 5, you
|
|
agree not to engage in any of the following behaviours:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.1 Offensive usernames and identifiers</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You may not use any username, clan tag, flag, custom pattern, or other
|
|
identifier displayed in the Service that is hateful, harassing,
|
|
discriminatory, sexually explicit, threatening, that glorifies violence or
|
|
self-harm, that impersonates another person or entity (including OpenFront
|
|
staff, moderators, or well-known players), that promotes illegal activity,
|
|
or that is otherwise offensive. We reserve the right to force-rename
|
|
accounts, remove or revoke cosmetic items, or suspend accounts at our sole
|
|
discretion, with or without prior notice, where we consider an identifier
|
|
to fall within this prohibition.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.2 Teaming and collusion in Free-for-All modes</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In any FFA mode, you may not coordinate with other players to gain a
|
|
competitive advantage. Prohibited behaviour includes, without limitation:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Pre-arranged alliances or non-aggression pacts arranged outside the
|
|
match
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Sharing accounts or "hot-seating" between multiple people</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Deliberately feeding resources, territory, or units to another player,
|
|
other than in dedicated team game modes where shared resources and
|
|
cooperative play between teammates are an intended function of the mode
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Using external communication channels (Discord, voice chat, livestreams,
|
|
co-watching, or any other out-of-game communication) to coordinate play
|
|
with other participants in the same FFA match
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In-game diplomacy — including truces, non-aggression, and betrayal —
|
|
negotiated during the course of a single match using in-game mechanics is
|
|
a normal part of OpenFront and is not prohibited. The prohibition in this
|
|
section is directed at sustained, pre-arranged, or externally-coordinated
|
|
play that defeats the purpose of an FFA mode.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.3 Multi-accounting</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You may not create, control, or use more than one account to participate
|
|
in the same match, to manipulate matchmaking, to evade a ban or other
|
|
moderation action, or otherwise to circumvent these Terms.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.4 Rating and ranking manipulation</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You may not engage in win-trading, account boosting, intentional losses
|
|
("throwing"), queue dodging, or any other behaviour designed to manipulate
|
|
competitive rankings, leaderboards, tournament results, or matchmaking,
|
|
whether for yourself or for another player.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.5 Cheating and unauthorised modifications</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You may not use, develop, distribute, or promote any cheat, bot, macro,
|
|
automation tool, modified client, memory editor, packet manipulation tool,
|
|
or any third-party software or technique that provides an unfair gameplay
|
|
advantage or alters the intended behaviour of the game.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.6 Exploits</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You may not knowingly exploit any bug, glitch, or unintended behaviour in
|
|
the Service. Suspected bugs must be reported to us privately via our
|
|
official GitHub repository or Discord server rather than exploited or
|
|
publicly weaponised.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.7 Disruptive play</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You may not engage in sustained behaviour intended to ruin the experience
|
|
for other players, including griefing, spawn-camping in violation of mode
|
|
rules, intentional AFK or idle play, chat spam, or coordinated harassment
|
|
of specific players.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.8 Enforcement</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We may, at our sole discretion and with or without prior notice, take any
|
|
of the following actions in response to a breach of these Terms, including
|
|
the rules in this Section 6: issue a warning; temporarily suspend an
|
|
account; permanently ban an account; force-rename an account; revoke,
|
|
remove, or refuse to deliver cosmetic items; reset or remove statistics,
|
|
ratings, or leaderboard entries; or take any other corrective action we
|
|
consider appropriate.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Enforcement actions may apply across all accounts that we reasonably
|
|
believe are controlled by, or operated on behalf of, the same person, and
|
|
across all platforms on which OpenFront is distributed (including the
|
|
website, Steam, Crazy Games, our Discord server, and our Discord bot).
|
|
Severe violations — including but not limited to cheating, the use or
|
|
distribution of unauthorised modifications, repeated offences after prior
|
|
warnings, or any behaviour that endangers minors — may result in an
|
|
immediate permanent ban without prior warning.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>6.9 Appeals</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you believe an enforcement action against your account was made in
|
|
error, you may contact us at support@openfront.io within 30 days of the
|
|
action. We will review appeals in good faith but reserve the right to
|
|
maintain or modify any enforcement action at our sole discretion. We do
|
|
not commit to a specific response timeframe and our decision on an appeal
|
|
is final.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>7. Public Profiles, Leaderboards and Display Names</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some features of the Service are public by design. By using the Service,
|
|
you acknowledge and agree that the following information may be displayed
|
|
publicly to other users and to non-users (including on the Website,
|
|
in-game, on Steam, on Crazy Games, in our Discord server, and on
|
|
third-party sites or applications that display OpenFront data):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<strong>Player ID.</strong> Each account is assigned a unique,
|
|
persistent identifier ("Player ID"). Your Player ID may be displayed
|
|
publicly alongside your in-game activity and may be used to look up your
|
|
match history, statistics, and leaderboard position.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<strong>Display name.</strong> A display name associated with your
|
|
Player ID may be shown publicly. This may take the form of a custom
|
|
display name that you have set, your Discord username, or one or more of
|
|
the names you have most recently used in the Service. We may retain and
|
|
display a history of recent display names in order to deter ban evasion,
|
|
name spoofing, and impersonation, and to support fair play enforcement.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<strong>In-game activity.</strong> Match results, statistics, ratings,
|
|
leaderboard positions, cosmetic items in use, clan or team affiliations,
|
|
and similar gameplay information may be displayed publicly.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Your email address, Discord ID, IP address, payment information, and any
|
|
other identifying or contact information that you have not chosen to
|
|
display in-game will not be exposed publicly through this feature.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Display names remain subject to Section 6.1. We may force-rename, hide, or
|
|
replace display names that breach that section, and we may retain a record
|
|
of removed display names internally for moderation and enforcement
|
|
purposes.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you do not wish to have your historical display names shown publicly
|
|
and would like to request that we display only your current name, please
|
|
contact us at support@openfront.io. We will assess such requests on a
|
|
case-by-case basis and reserve the right to decline where retention of
|
|
historical names is necessary for moderation, anti-evasion, or
|
|
anti-impersonation purposes.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>8. Data Collection and Privacy</h2>
|
|

|

|
trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>10. User-Generated Content</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You retain ownership of any content you submit, post, or display on or

|
modify, create derivative works based on, distribute, publicly display,
|
|
and publicly perform your User Content in connection with operating and
|
|
providing our Service.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
You represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to submit
|
|
your User Content and to grant the licence above, and that your User
|
|

|
|
rights of any third party and does not breach Sections 5 or 6 of these
|

liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or
|
|
discontinuance of the Service.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
We do not guarantee that our Service will be available at all times. We

maintenance related to the Service, resulting in interruptions, delays, or
|
|
errors.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>12. Limitation of Liability</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To the maximum extent permitted by law, OpenFront and its affiliates,
|
|
officers, employees, agents, partners, and licensors will not be liable
|
|
for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages,
|
|
including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or
|
|
other intangible losses, resulting from:

|
<ul>
|

Your access to or use of or inability to access or use the Service
|
|
</li>

|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In no event shall our aggregate liability for all claims relating to the
|
|
Service exceed one hundred dollars ($100).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>13. Disclaimer of Warranties</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without any
|
|
warranty of any kind, whether express or implied. We expressly disclaim
|
|
all warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not
|
|
limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a
|
|
particular purpose, and non-infringement.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>14. Discord's Terms and Conditions</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Your use of Discord's services is also governed by Discord's Terms of
|
|
Service and Privacy Policy. Our Service does not override or modify any
|
|
terms and conditions that govern your use of Discord's services.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>15. Termination</h2>
|
|
<p>
|

We may terminate or suspend your access to the Service immediately,
|
|
without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including
|
|
without limitation if you breach these Terms.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
A termination or suspension under this Section 15 may, at our sole
|
|
discretion, extend to all accounts and platforms that we reasonably
|
|
believe are controlled by, or operated on behalf of, the same person, and
|
|
to associated cosmetic items, statistics, ratings, and leaderboard
|
|
entries.

</p>
|

<h2>16. Changes to Terms</h2>

|
We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a

revision is material, we will try to provide at least 30 days' notice

|
prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change
|
|
will be determined at our sole discretion.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
By continuing to access or use our Service after those revisions become
|
|
