Terms of Service
Effective Date: May 18, 2026.
Welcome to Chaotic! These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Chaotic TCG Platform. By using Chaotic, you agree to these Terms. If you are to young (depending on where you are located), your parent or guardian must agree to these Terms on your behalf.
1. Eligibility and Account Registration
- Age Limits: During our launch the Platform is generally available to all users.
- Accuracy: You must provide accurate codes when scanning cards. Fraudulent code entry is prohibited.
2. The Chaotic Ecosystem (Core Features)
Chaotic links physical trading cards to digital gameplay.
- Unique Identifiers: Each physical card contains a unique alphanumeric code. This code can be used once to add the card to your digital collection.
- Authentication: You may scan the code via device camera or type it manually.
- Ownership: You own the physical cardboard. You license the digital asset for use on the Platform. If a card is traded or auctioned digitally, the digital rights transfer to the new owner; the physical card is unaffected unless trading is facilitated by the Company.
3. User Conduct (The "Duelist's Code")
We want Chaotic to be fun for everyone. You agree NOT to:
- Cheat: Do not generate fake card codes, exploit bugs in Unity, or use automated "bots" to bid in auctions.
- Harass: In-game chat is filtered, but attempts to bypass filters (using leetspeak or slurs) to harass other players will result in a ban.
- Spam: Do not flood message boards or trade offers.
- Sell Accounts: Do not sell your user account or digital cards for real-world money outside the official auction house.
Violation of the Duelist's Code results in suspension or permanent ban, forfeiture of digital cards, and notification of parents.
4. In-Game Chat, Boards, and Social Features
- Message Boards: User comments are reviewed. We do not allow sharing of personal contact information (phone numbers, home addresses) on public boards.

5. Auctions, Trades, and Future Store
- Virtual Items: Cards have no real-world cash value.
- The Auction House: The Company reserves the right to charge a transaction fee (in "Chaotic Coins" or similar virtual currency) on successful auctions.
- Future Store: When the online store launches, purchases are final.
6. Organized Play and Tournaments
- Fair Play: We reserve the right to disqualify any player using exploits.

10. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
