Hey guys. Today is a bit of a less fun but required post on Badlion before we can publish the Badlion Premium Beta. We are updating all of our legal documents on the website effective next week (before the Badlion Premium Beta is available). Below are the three new documents that will be live and effective December 20th 8 AM GMT (0 AM PST). If you do not wish to agree to these new documents below all you need to do is stop using the Badlion services and none of them will apply to you. Existing policies (up until the new ones below are in effect) do still affect users using Badlion.Who is Turtle Entertainment Online, Inc? (TEO)?
Turtle Entertainment Online, Inc is a subsidiary of the company Turtle Entertainment (https://www.turtle-entertainment.com) who own the brand name ESL (Electronic Sports League https://www.eslgaming.com/) that you all know of at this point.
Feel free to ask any questions and I will do my best to help answer them, but remember that I am not a lawyer and anything I say is my own interpretation of the following documents. A lawyer did review all of these documents though.

11. Third Party Content
TEO is a distributor (and not a publisher) of content supplied by third parties and users of the Services. Accordingly, TEO has no more editorial control over such content than does a public library, bookstore, or newsstand. Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or content expressed or made available by third parties, including information providers, or any user of the Services are those of the respective author(s) or distributor(s) and not of TEO. Neither TEO nor any third-party provider of information guarantees the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any content, nor its merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose. Refer to Sections 3 and 4 above for the complete provisions governing limitation of liabilities and disclaimers of warranty.
In many instances, the content available through the Services represents the opinions and judgments of the respective information provider or users not under contract with TEO. TEO neither endorses nor is responsible for the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, advice or statement made on the Services. Under no circumstances will TEO be liable for any loss or damage caused by your reliance on information obtained through the Services. It is your responsibility to evaluate the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any information, opinion, advice or other content available through the Services.
12. Terms of Sale
The following terms apply to your purchases or subscriptions related to the Services.
A. Purchase Qualifications; Account Security
To purchase a product or subscription related to the Services, you must be a registered TEO User and comply with these Terms of Use. You acknowledge that you are responsible for maintaining the security of, and restricting access to, your account and password, and you agree to accept responsibility for all purchases and other activities that occur under your account. TEO sells its products only to those users who can legally make purchases using one of the accepted payment methods. If you are under 18, you may make purchases on TEO only with the involvement of a parent or guardian. TEO reserves the right to refuse or cancel orders or terminate accounts, at any time in its sole discretion.
B. Payment Method and Terms
We accept payments made through PayPal and Paymentwall in connection with the purchase of any merchandise or subscription through the Services. By submitting an order through TEO, you authorize TEO, or its designated payment processor, to charge the account you specify for the purchase amount. All payments are to be made in United States Dollars.
C. Badlion Wallet
TEO may, at its sole discretion, issue an account balance associated with your account (the “Badlion Wallet”). The Badlion Wallet does not represent any form of legal currency, financial / bank account, or payment instrument of any kind. The purpose of the Badlion Wallet is to function as a prepaid balance to purchase Services. TEO may, at its sole discretion, impose a maximum account balance on your Badlion Wallet. Within any twenty-four hour period, the total amount stored, spent, or deposited into your Badlion Wallet may not, in the aggregate, exceed $500 USD (the “BW Maximum”) or its equivalent in your applicable local currency. Attempts to deposit funds in excess of the BW Maximum may result in a temporary hold of the deposit until the activity falls below the BW Maximum. TEO reserves the right to change or impose new Badlion Wallet balance and usage limits at any time.
You will be alerted to any material changes to the Badlion Wallet balance and usage limits within sixty days before the entry into force of any applicable changes. Continued use and activity of your Badlion account over thirty days after the entry into force of the applicable changes will constitute your acceptance of the changes. The only remedies for non-acceptance or non-agreeance with the applicable changes would be the voluntary termination of your Badlion account or the voluntary discontinuation of use of the Badlion Wallet. TEO shall not be under any obligation to refund or replace any remaining balance you have in your Badlion Wallet in the event of a voluntary termination or discontinuation of use.
C. Funds in your Badlion Wallet may be used solely for the purchase of Services related to Badlion. Badlion Wallet funds are non-refundable and non-transferable. Funds in your Badlion Wallet do not constitute a personal property right and have no value outside of Badlion. Funds in your Badlion Wallet have no cash value and are not exchangeable for any currency. Any funds in your Badlion Wallet that are deemed unclaimed property may be turned over to the applicable authority.
D. Delivery
Any tangible property purchased through the Services will be shipped FOB Shipping Point. Title to such products passes from TEO to you upon shipment. With respect to products or services you purchase through the Services, you acknowledge and agree that upon making such purchases available to you (or to their intended authorized recipients), TEO will have fully satisfied its obligation to deliver or otherwise provide such services, regardless of any failure or inability to use such services.
E. Product and Service Descriptions and Availability, Errors
TEO and its suppliers continually upgrade and revise its products and services to provide you with new products and services. TEO may revise, discontinue or modify products or services at any time without prior notice to customers, and products or services may become unavailable without notice. TEO shall have no liability of any kind if a product or service that has been ordered is unavailable. If necessary, TEO reserves the right to substitute items of equal or greater value when an item or service is unavailable or TEO may cancel the order.
We attempt to be as accurate as possible and eliminate errors on the Services, however we do not warrant that any product, service or description, photograph, pricing or other information is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. In the event of an error, whether on the Services, in an order confirmation, in processing an order, delivering a product or service or otherwise, we reserve the right to correct such error and revise your order accordingly if necessary (including charging the correct price) or to cancel the order and refund any amount charged. In addition, we may, in lieu of a refund as provided in this paragraph, opt to provide you with a merchandise or service credit, with a value at least equal to the amount charged to your account. TEO reserves the right to determine and modify from time to time the exact nature of any such merchandise or service credit, including conversion into one or more different types of merchandise or service credits. Your sole remedy in the event of such error is to cancel your order and obtain a refund or credit as set forth above. To request a refund, open a request here: https://www.badlion.net/forum/category/37
F. Taxes
Merchandise sold by TEO and shipped to a destination in the state of New York and services purchased by residents of the state of New York may be subject to sales tax. Additionally, users ordering merchandise to be shipped to a destination outside of the United States may be subject to a third party brokerage or customs fees and eligible VAT fees; these fees are not determined by and cannot be modified by TEO and no advance estimate can be provided. You are responsible for any applicable sales or use tax, duties, or other governmental taxes or fees payable in connection with your purchase. If you do not pay such sales or other tax or fee on a transaction, you will be responsible for such taxes or fees in the event that they are later determined to be payable on such sale, and TEO reserves the right to collect such taxes or other fees from you at any time.
G. Refunds and Returns
All merchandise must be inspected by customer upon delivery. If any box looks dented or damaged in any way, the driver must make a notation and should mark any damages. Boxes opened later and then damage noticed without driver making notation, is considered concealed damage. Some shipping companies do not always cover full refunds on concealed damage items. TEO is not responsible for damaged incurred during shipping. There are no returns or cancellations for any intangible property or services purchased from TEO, including without limitation paid subscriptions and Lessons.
Returns are permitted only in the event of an error committed by TEO. You must email or call first for a return authorization number, and no merchandise can be returned without a written authorization number. Items must be unopened, in new condition, and returned in original shipping containers. All sales are final, noncancelable and nonrefundable except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or as otherwise determined by TEO in its sole discretion.
13. Copyright Complaints
TEO owns, protects and enforces copyrights in its own creative material and respects the copyright properties of others. You are prohibited from uploading, posting or otherwise transmitting on the Services any materials that violate another party's intellectual property rights. When we receive proper notification under our DMCA Policy, we promptly remove or disable access to the alleged infringing materials and terminate the accounts of repeat offenders. TEO's DMCA Policy is hereby incorporated into these Terms of Use.
14. Miscellaneous
These Terms of Use (which hereby incorporate by reference any other provisions applicable to use of the Services, including, but not limited to, any supplemental terms governing the use of certain specific material contained on the Services and any operating rules for the Services established by TEO) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter. The provisions of these Terms of Use will be deemed severable, and the unenforceability of any one or more provisions will not affect the enforceability of any other provisions. In addition, if any provision of these Terms of Use, for any reason, is declared to be unenforceable, the parties will substitute an enforceable provision that, to the maximum extent possible under applicable law, preserves the intentions of the original provision. These Terms of Use shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the applicable laws of the State of New York and applicable United States federal law. Exclusive venue for all litigation regarding these Terms shall be in Suffolk County, New York. You agree that any portion of these Terms found to be invalid or unenforceable shall be modified, to the extent allowed by law, so as to allow for the enforcement of the original intended meaning of the portion found to be invalid or unenforceable.

TEO has designated the following agent (i.e., the proper party for notice) to whom you should address Proper Notices under the DMCA:
Legal Counsel
Turtle Entertainment Online, Inc.
1212 Chestnut Street
Burbank, California 91506
USA
Email: copyright (at) badlion (dot) net
Please also note that under Section 512(f) of the Copyright Act any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability.
TEO may give notice to its users of any infringement notice by means of a general notice on any of our websites, electronic mail to a user's email address in our records, or by written communication sent by first-class mail to a user's physical address in our records. If you receive such an infringement notice, you may provide counter-notification in writing to the designated agent listed above.
To be effective, a counter-notification must be a written communication that includes substantially the following:
1. your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address
2. a description of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
3. a statement by you under the penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
4. a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of a Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your physical address is located, or if your physical address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which TEO may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of allegedly infringing material or an agent of such person.
Please understand that filing a counter notice may lead to legal proceedings between you and the complaining party to determine ownership, and if your claim is rejected, you may face severe legal and financial penalties.

Took me 3 minutes and 21 seconds to read it all but it was all worth it.Posted on 14 December 2016 - 02:14 PM
So I read all that and it seems pretty straightforward and all, well made TEO. I just have one thing I need clarification on, So when you go to TEO websites or use their products your personal information is being stored and gathered while at the same time keeping you as a person anonymous? Am I correct on that? I simply want to know that my information will not be leaked or given to those i do not trust with it.Posted on 14 December 2016 - 02:14 PM

You can use the sites/services anonymously if permitted (e.g. be on the website and not logged in).
