Welcome to Gamergiz! By using our website (gamergiz.com), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you’re under 13, please stop reading and ask a parent/guardian to review these terms with you.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Gamergiz, you agree to:
- These Terms of Use.
- Our Privacy Policy (how we handle your data).
If you disagree, kindly exit the site. We’ll miss you. 😢
2. What We Provide
- Content: Reviews, news, guides, and opinions.
- Community Features: Comments, forums, and Discord access.
- Free Access: No paywalls, but we use ads/affiliate links to keep the lights on.
Note: We don’t guarantee 24/7 uptime. Sometimes even servers need a coffee break.
3. Your Responsibilities
- Be Cool: No hate speech, harassment, or spam. We’ll ban trolls faster than you can say “skill issue.”
- No Cheating: Don’t hack, scrape, or DDoS our site. We’re gamers—we know when someone’s cheating.
- Accuracy: Provide truthful info if you create an account (e.g., email, age).
4. User-Generated Content
If you post comments, reviews, or fan art:
- You own it, but you grant us a license to use/modify it.
- We can remove anything violating our guidelines (e.g., spoilers, NSFW content).
5. Intellectual Property
- Our Stuff: All articles, logos, and graphics are owned by Gamergiz. Don’t steal them.
- Your Stuff: If you think we’ve accidentally used your content, email legal@gamergiz.com.
6. Affiliate Links & Ads
- We earn commissions via links (Amazon, Steam, etc.). This doesn’t cost you extra.
- Sponsored content is always labelled #ad or #sponsored.
7. Disclaimers
- Games Change: Patches, updates, or DLC might make our reviews outdated.
- Opinions ≠ Endorsements: Our hot takes are ours alone. Don’t @ devs because we roasted their game.
- No Warranty: Use our site at your own risk. We’re not liable for:
- Bugs/errors.
- Lost data.
- That time you rage-quit after reading a review.
8. Limitation of Liability
Gamergiz isn’t responsible for:
- Indirect damages (e.g., lost sleep over Elden Ring 3 spoilers).
- Third-party sites we link to (read their terms too!).
9. Termination
We reserve the right to:
- Suspend accounts for rule-breaking.
- Shut down the site (but we’ll cry while doing it).
10. Governing Law
- Jurisdiction: Disputes fall under the laws of the United States.
- Arbitration: We’ll try to resolve issues offline before lawyering up.
11. Changes to These Terms
We’ll update these terms as needed. Major changes? We’ll email you or post a banner. Keep an eye out!
