Terms of Use

This is a reference translation. The Japanese version is authoritative and prevails in case of any discrepancy.

These Terms of Use (the "Terms") apply to your use of the game "EDO ONLINE" (the "Game") provided by this site (the "Operator"). By using or attempting to use the Game, you (the "User") confirm that you have reviewed and agree to all of these Terms. The Operator may also publish separate guidelines or rules ("Rules"); where Rules conflict with these Terms, the Rules prevail with respect to the conflicting provisions.

• Users shall play the Game on devices they own (including devices owned by a legal guardian who has consented to use by a minor).
• Users are responsible, at their own cost, for preparing and maintaining any devices, network services, and other equipment needed to play the Game.
• Users shall use the Game for their personal use only. They shall not obtain multiple User IDs or use the Game across more devices than a typical single user would.

• If a User is a minor, they shall obtain the prior consent of a legal guardian regarding these Terms and their use of the Game. If a minor uses the Game without such consent, the Operator may terminate the contract of use and suspend access.
• If a User who began playing as a minor continues to play after reaching the age of majority, that continued play constitutes ratification of all prior use.
• The Operator may restrict all or part of the Game based on the User's age, and the User shall comply with any such restriction.

• The Operator issues User IDs (linked to email address or Google account) to identify Users and provide support.
• Users shall manage their User ID securely and shall not disclose, lend, transfer, sell, inherit, or pledge it to any third party.
• Users shall not acquire, create, or use multiple User IDs. The Operator reserves the right to disable any User ID found to violate this rule.
• Any use of the Game via a User ID is deemed to be the act of the User to whom that ID was issued, and the User is solely liable for any resulting charges. The Operator is not liable for any damages except in cases of its willful misconduct or gross negligence.

• The Operator may provide in-game currency (referred to by names such as "ryō" or "mon" within the Game) for consideration or without charge.
• Users may use provided in-game currency only within the scope and purpose specified by the Operator.
• For minors, the Operator may set limits on the amount of paid in-game currency that can be purchased within a given period.
• If a User does not log in or take any action for 30 consecutive days, the in-game currency on that account may be forfeited.

• The Operator may, for any reason, change the scope or use of in-game currency, terminate any title in which it is usable, or otherwise discontinue and extinguish any unused in-game currency.
• Except in the following cases, the Operator is not liable for any damages arising from such discontinuation:
• where a refund is required by law;
