Terms of Service

1. Who we are

Valermine is a fantasy idle mining game played in the browser at valermine.com and play.valermine.com. In these terms, "Valermine", "we" and "us" mean the operator of Valermine. "You" means anyone who visits, joins the waitlist or plays.

2. Who can use Valermine

• You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live if that is higher.
• You must not use Valermine where doing so is against the law, or if you are barred from receiving our services under laws that apply to you.
• You are responsible for following the laws of the place where you live, including any rules about games, prizes and digital assets.

3. Your account and wallet

• Your account is linked to the wallet you sign in with, or to the email address you register with. One person, one account.
• Keep your wallet, devices and passwords safe. You are responsible for activity on your account.
• We will never ask for your seed phrase or private key. Anyone who asks for them is not Valermine.
• Only use official links. Our official X account is @Valermine.

4. Preview, beta and resets

Valermine is still being built. Features, balance, rewards and rules can change, and parts of the game may be paused or removed. Beta progress, items and balances may be reset at launch. Your referral code and waitlist record are the only things we have said will carry over.

5. Virtual items and future digital assets

• Gold, Dust, chests, equipment, miners, pickaxes and the in-game reward balance in the current preview are virtual game items. They have no cash value and cannot be exchanged for money unless we clearly say otherwise for a specific feature.
• On-chain minting, token deposits and withdrawals are not live yet. When we add blockchain features, extra terms for those features will apply and will be shown before you use them.
• Nothing in Valermine is an offer of an investment, a security or financial advice. Digital assets can lose value, transactions on a blockchain usually cannot be reversed, and network fees are your responsibility.

6. Waitlist, referrals and prizes

• Waitlist tasks must be done honestly on your own accounts. A referral counts only when the friend you invited completes the waitlist.
• Prizes, such as the Free Miner Mint for the Top 10 referrers, are given as described on the waitlist page when the promotion ends. Prizes are game items, are not exchangeable for cash, and may be delivered in the game.
• We may review rankings before giving prizes. We may remove invites, disqualify entries or withhold prizes where we find fake, duplicate or automated accounts, or any other abuse.
• We may change, extend or end a promotion if it is being abused or can no longer run fairly.

7. Fair play

You must not:

• use bots, scripts, macros or other automation, or create multiple accounts to gain rewards;
• exploit bugs, interfere with our servers, or try to access accounts or data that are not yours;
• copy, reverse engineer or resell the game or its art, except as the law allows;
• harass, threaten or scam other players, or impersonate Valermine or its team.

Please report bugs through the contact form instead of using them.

8. Suspension and ending your access

We may suspend or close accounts, remove items or rewards gained unfairly, and refuse access where these terms are broken or to protect players and the game. You may stop using Valermine at any time and ask us to delete your account through the contact form.

9. Our content

The Valermine name, logo, art, characters, music and software belong to Valermine or its licensors. You may share screenshots and videos of your own play, including as a creator, as long as you do not suggest that Valermine endorses you without permission.

10. Other services

Valermine works with services run by others, such as wallet apps (for example MetaMask and Phantom), X, Discord and blockchain networks. Their own terms apply to your use of them, and we are not responsible for them.

11. No warranty

Valermine is provided "as is" and "as available". We do our best to keep it running and fair, but we do not promise that it will always be available, error free or that progress will never be lost.

12. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Valermine is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits, lost data, or losses from wallet, network or third-party failures. Where the law does not allow us to exclude liability, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, if any.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If a change is important, we will tell players in the game or on the website. Using Valermine after a change means you accept the updated terms.

14. Disputes and contact

If you have a problem, please contact us first through the contact form so we can try to fix it. These terms are governed by the laws that apply where the operator of Valermine is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and nothing in them removes rights that the law where you live gives you.
