The Services may include fiction, satire, speculative commentary, and entertainment content. Any informational content is provided for general informational purposes and should not be relied upon as professional advice (legal, medical, financial, safety, or otherwise). You use the Services at your own risk.

If you submit, upload, post, or transmit content (including text, images, audio, video, comments, reviews, or other materials) (“User Content”), you represent and warrant that:

• you own or have all necessary rights to submit it;
   
• it does not violate law, third-party rights, or these Terms.
   

License you grant to us: You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting), publish, publicly display, distribute, and otherwise use your User Content for the purposes of operating, marketing, and improving the Services and your participation in them. You can request deletion where technically feasible, but cached/backup copies may persist for a limited time.

Moral rights: To the extent permitted by law, you waive and agree not to assert moral rights in your User Content against us or our sublicensees.

The Services and all content provided by us (including artwork, videos, text, designs, logos, trademarks, and the look and feel) (“Our Content”) are owned by us or our licensors and protected by intellectual property laws.

Limited license: We grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Services for personal, non-commercial use unless we expressly authorize otherwise in writing.

Restrictions: You may not:

• copy, sell, license, distribute, or create derivative works from Our Content except as expressly allowed;

• remove copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices.
   

Unless we publish separate “Fan Content Guidelines,” the default rule is:

  • do not imply endorsement,
     
  • do not include hateful, unlawful, or explicit content,

If you believe content on the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice to:
DMCA Agent: [Name/Title]
Email: [legal@grandtheftaliens.com]
Address: [Full Address]

Your notice must include required DMCA elements (identification of the work, infringing material, contact info, a good-faith statement, and a statement under penalty of perjury). We may remove content and terminate repeat infringers.

If the Services offer paid products (merchandise, tickets, memberships, or digital content), these terms apply:

11.1 Pricing / taxes
Prices are shown in [USD] unless stated otherwise and may exclude taxes, shipping, or processing fees. You authorize us (and our payment processor) to charge your payment method.

Trials and promotional pricing convert to paid plans unless canceled before the trial ends. One per user/household/payment method unless otherwise stated.

11.4 Cancellations
You can cancel using your account settings or by contacting support at [support@grandtheftaliens.com]. Cancellation stops future renewals; it does not retroactively refund past charges unless required by law or stated in a refund policy.

11.5 Refunds and returns
All sales are final except where (a) we state a refund/return policy for a specific product, or (b) refunds are required by law.

• Digital content: Typically non-refundable once access/download begins, to the extent allowed by law.
   
• Events/tickets: Generally non-refundable unless the event is canceled or we state otherwise.
   
• Merchandise: Return eligibility, if offered, must follow our posted return policy [link].
   

11.6 Chargebacks / payment disputes
If you initiate a chargeback without first contacting us to resolve the issue, we may suspend your account, revoke access to digital goods, and recover associated fees to the extent permitted by law.

11.7 Fraud protection
We may use fraud screening, verification checks, and risk scoring. We may refuse or cancel orders that appear fraudulent or abusive.

If we offer events (including sky-watching meetups, screenings, conventions, or member gatherings):

• You participate at your own risk and must follow venue rules and organizer instructions.
   
• You are responsible for your health, safety, and property.
   
• We may refuse entry or remove participants for unsafe, disruptive, or unlawful behavior.
   
• We may record audio/video/photos at events; by attending, you grant permission for your likeness to be used for event documentation and marketing unless prohibited by law (you may request an opt-out where feasible).
   

The Services may link to or integrate with third-party platforms (e.g., payment processors, video hosts, ticketing sites, social networks). We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices. Your use of third-party services is governed by their terms.

We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. The Services may be unavailable for maintenance, upgrades, security measures, capacity limits, or events beyond our control. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE.” We disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade. We do not warrant that the Services will be secure, available, accurate, complete, or free of harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• We will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or business interruption arising out of or related to your use of the Services.
   
• Our total liability for any claim arising from or related to the Services will not exceed the greater of (a) $100 or (b) the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to liability.
   

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so these limits apply to the maximum extent allowed.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us and our affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, and licensors from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to:

• your use of the Services,
   
• your User Content,
   
• your violation of these Terms,
   
• your violation of any law or third-party rights.
   

We may (in our sole discretion) suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Services, remove content, or disable accounts without notice if we believe you:

• violated these Terms,
   
• pose a security risk,
   
• engaged in malicious behavior,
   
• infringed IP rights,
   
• created legal exposure for us or users.
   

Upon termination, your license to use the Services ends immediately. Sections that by their nature should survive (e.g., IP, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, dispute resolution) will survive.

Governing law: These Terms are governed by the laws of USA, without regard to conflict of laws principles.

Venue: Unless required otherwise by law, exclusive venue for disputes will be Nevada, USA.

If EU/UK consumer law applies, you may have mandatory rights that cannot be waived. If you provide digital content immediately after purchase, you may be asked to expressly consent to immediate performance and acknowledge you may lose the right to withdraw once access begins, as permitted by law.

If you submit suggestions or feedback, you grant us the right to use it without restriction or compensation.

We may send notices electronically (email, account notifications, or website postings). You agree that electronic notices satisfy legal notice requirements.

You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without our written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.

If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional policies posted in the Services (e.g., Community Guidelines, Return Policy), constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Services and supersede prior agreements.
