The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution which can be found at: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.

In case of conflict between Steam’s terms of use and the terms of this Terms of Use Agreement, Steam’s terms of use shall prevail over the terms of this Terms of Use Agreement.

9.2 Steam is hosted by Valve S.A.R.L. (in the EU) and Valve Corporation (in the US). That means you need a Steam account to play the Game via Steam, and your use of Steam is subject to the Steam Subscriber Agreement, which you can find here: https://steamproxy.com/steamstore/subscriber_agreement/.

9.3 If you make mods available through Steam Workshop or other online services, make sure you keep a backup. We don’t guarantee that mods you publish or make available through Steam Workshop will always be available, and we may also remove them if we think it’s necessary, for example if they don’t comply with our modding guidelines.

10.3 Secret Mode's licensors (if any) shall be third-party beneficiaries under this Terms of Use Agreement and shall have the express right to enforce its provisions and to enjoy the benefits of its protections.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under this Terms of Use Agreement, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking of any term of this Terms of Use Agreement, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

14.3 We may transfer our rights and obligations under this Terms of Use Agreement to another organisation (such as, without limitation, in the event of a business restructure or acquisition). We will let you know if that happens, and we will ensure that your rights under this Terms of Use Agreement are unaffected.

14.4 Except where expressly stated to the contrary in this Terms of Use Agreement, this Terms of Use Agreement does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Terms of Use Agreement.

14.5 In the event that any provision of this Terms of Use Agreement (including, without limitation, any restriction) shall be held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted in such a way as to ensure it is enforced to the maximum extent permissible in a manner reflecting the parties' intentions and the remaining portions of this Terms of Use Agreement shall, in any event, remain in full force and effect.

14.6 For users outside of the United States, the following terms shall apply:

14.6.1 This Terms of Use Agreement and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of England and Wales and the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim.

14.6.2 In addition, you may have the legal right to bring proceedings in your local jurisdiction and, if this is the case, then you may bring proceedings there. For instance, if you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the relevant Game in either the Scottish or the English courts.

14.6.3 Section 16.6 does not apply to U.S. Users.

14.7 The following terms shall apply to U.S. Users:

14.7.1 The Federal Arbitration Act, Oregon state law and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions, will govern this Terms of Use Agreement. Foreign laws do not apply. Except for disputes subject to arbitration as described above, any disputes relating to these Terms will be heard in the courts located in Portland, Oregon. If any of the terms of tis Terms of Use Agreement are deemed inconsistent with applicable law, then such term(s) shall be interpreted to reflect the intentions of the parties, and no other terms will be modified.

14.7.2 Section 16.7 shall only apply to U.S. Users.


This Provision applies to U.S. Users. If you are a U.S. User, please read this Section 17 (the “Provision”) carefully. It affects your legal rights.

15.1 General. This Provision facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any dispute (e.g., claim or controversy, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort – including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence – or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below) that may arise between you and us. Effectively, then, “dispute” is given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to you (such as our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) whenever you also assert claims against us in the same proceeding. This Provision provides that all disputes between you and us shall be resolved by binding arbitration because acceptance of the Terms of Use Agreement (which includes this Provision) constitutes a waiver of your right to litigation claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or jury. To be clear, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this Provision and the Terms of Use Agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees). you may, however, opt-out of this Provision which means you would have a right or opportunity to bring claims in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate in or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including, but not limited to, class actions). EVERYONE AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.

15.2 Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution. For all disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute which is first done by emailing us at [email protected] the following information: (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) a written description of your claim, and (4) A description of the specific relief you seek. If we do not resolve the dispute within 45 days after receiving your notification, than you may pursue your dispute in arbitration. you may pursue your dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.

15.3 Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt Out. Notwithstanding the above, your or we may choose to pursue a dispute in court and not by arbitration if: (a) the dispute qualifies for initiation in small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THESE TERMS (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). you may opt-out of this Provision by emailing us at [email protected] the following information: (1) your name; (2) your address; (3) a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with us through arbitration. your decision to opt-out of this Provision will have no adverse effect on your relationship with us. But, we will enforce the Opt-Out Deadline so keep in mind that any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and you must pursue your dispute in arbitration or small claims court.

15.4 Arbitration Procedures. If this Provision applies and the dispute is not resolved as provided above (Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution) either you or we may initiate arbitration proceedings. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration only, and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration or a consolidated or representative action or arbitration. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision.
For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action or representative procedures or rules apply to the arbitration.
Because these Terms of Use Agreement concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all disputes. However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.

15.4.1 Arbitration Award – The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party or if required by applicable law. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA or other applicable law, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.

15.4.2 Location of Arbitration – you or we may initiate arbitration in either California or the federal judicial district that includes your billing address.

15.4.3 Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs – So long as you place a request in writing prior to commencement of the arbitration, we will pay all arbitration filing fees and AAA or JAMS hearing fees and any arbitrator's hearing fees, costs and expenses upon your written request to the arbitrator given at or before the first evidentiary hearing in the arbitration. But, you will still be responsible for all additional fees and costs that you incur in the arbitration which include but are not limited to attorneys’ fees or expert witnesses. In addition to any fees and costs recoverable under applicable law, if you provide notice and negotiate in good faith with us as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution” and the arbitrator concludes that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator.

15.5 Class Action Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action, representative action, or private attorney general action) unless both you and we specifically agree to do so in writing following initiation of the arbitration. If you choose to pursue your Dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other user of the Game can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.

15.6 No Judge or Jury in Arbitration. Arbitration does not involve a judge or jury. you understand and agree that by entering into these Terms of Use Agreement you and we are each giving up the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, you and we might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that you would have if you went to court (e.g., the rights to both appeal and certain types of discovery) may be more limited or may also be waived.

15.7 Severability. If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision whose remainder will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable, and the dispute will be decided by a court.

15.8 Continuation. This Provision shall survive the termination of your account with us or Our affiliates and your discontinued use of the Game. Notwithstanding any provision in this Terms of Use Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if we make any change to this Provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject any such change and require us to adhere to the present language in this Provision if a dispute between us arises.
