Terms of Service

By creating an account, installing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. The game is also licensed to you under our End User License Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If the game carries a Mature (M) rating, you must be at least 17. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Service only with the involvement of a parent or guardian who agrees to these Terms. Where the GDPR applies, the minimum age is 16, or the lower age your country allows down to 13.

You sign in using Epic Account Services. You are responsible for keeping your account and credentials secure and for everything that happens under your account. Provide accurate information, and tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorized use. We may refuse, suspend, or close accounts as described in these Terms.

Fireteam Breach is a tactical multiplayer shooter, along with a website and player portal that show your profile, stats, loadouts, and inventory. We are always improving the Service, so features may change, and we may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of it at any time.

While using the Service, you agree not to:

• Cheat, use unauthorized third-party software, exploits, bots, or hacks, or tamper with anti-cheat.
• Harass, threaten, or abuse other players, or post hateful, illegal, or harmful content.
• Use the Service to break the law or to infringe anyone's rights.
• Access accounts or data that are not yours, or probe, scan, or disrupt the Service or its security.
• Buy, sell, or trade accounts, in-game items, or currency outside features we officially provide.
• Reverse engineer, copy, or create derivative works from the Service except where the law allows.
• Use the Service for any commercial purpose without our written permission.

The Service lets you add content such as a profile picture, profile text, text chat, and voice chat ("User Content"). You keep ownership of your User Content. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, display, and use it to operate, moderate, and improve the Service.

You are responsible for your User Content, and you confirm you have the rights to share it. We may review, moderate, or remove User Content, and we may record and review voice and text chat to keep players safe, as described in our Privacy Policy. We are not obligated to store your User Content and may remove it at any time.

Copyright complaints. We respect intellectual property rights. If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to contact@dcsoftwareapps.com with enough detail to identify the work and the content, your contact information, and a statement of good-faith belief. We respond to valid notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and may remove infringing content and act against repeat infringers.

The Service includes virtual currencies (tokens and credits) and virtual items. These are licensed to you, not sold, and you do not own them. They have no real-world value, cannot be redeemed for money, and may not be transferred or sold except through features we officially provide.

Randomized items. The Service may offer packs or similar items that contain randomized in-game content, such as cosmetic gun skins of varying rarity. These packs are obtained using credits, an in-game currency that is earned through play and cannot be purchased with money. Where we offer a randomized pack, we disclose the relative probabilities (odds) of the items it can contain.

We may manage, change, or remove virtual items and currency, and we may adjust prices and balances. We are not liable for the loss of virtual items or currency, including when your account is suspended or closed or when the Service is discontinued.

You buy and download Fireteam Breach through Steam (Valve) and the Epic Games Store. Those storefronts handle payment and are the seller for your purchase, so their terms and refund policies apply to your transactions. Please review the Steam Subscriber Agreement and the Epic Games Store terms for refund details. Except where the law requires, purchases are final.

The Service, including the game, software, art, audio, the Fireteam Breach name and logo, and other trademarks, is owned by DCSA or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Fireteam Breach and DCSA Studios are trademarks of DC Software Apps LLC. We grant you a limited, personal, non-transferable right to use the Service for your own non-commercial entertainment, subject to these Terms and the EULA.

Fireteam Breach is built with Unreal Engine 5 and uses Epic Online Services. Unreal Engine is a trademark of Epic Games, Inc. If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free license to use them without obligation to you.

The Service relies on platforms like Epic, Steam, and Discord, and links to sites we do not control. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, remove content, or apply in-game sanctions if you break these Terms, cheat, or put the Service or other players at risk, and we may do so without notice where needed to protect the Service. You may stop using the Service at any time. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including those on content licenses, disclaimers, liability limits, and dispute resolution.

Some enforcement is automated. For clear-cut violations, such as detected cheating or prohibited words in chat, a sanction may be applied automatically, while cases like match review and player reports are reviewed by a person. If an automated decision significantly affects you, you may request human review and contest it by emailing contact@dcsoftwareapps.com, as described in our Privacy Policy.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of these may not apply to you.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, DCSA and its owners, employees, and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, goodwill, or virtual items, arising from or related to your use of the Service.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or fifty US dollars. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limits, so they may not fully apply to you.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless DCSA and its owners and employees from claims, damages, and costs, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your User Content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or the rights of others.

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights, including your right to go to court.

Informal resolution first. Before starting an arbitration, you agree to contact us at contact@dcsoftwareapps.com and try to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Binding arbitration. If we cannot resolve a dispute, you and DCSA agree to resolve it through final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, rather than in court. The arbitration will be held in Arizona or by remote means, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

Class action waiver.You and DCSA agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims.

Small claims and opt-out. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing contact@dcsoftwareapps.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name and that you opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect the rest of these Terms.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona and applicable US federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to the arbitration agreement above, any dispute not subject to arbitration will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Arizona, and you consent to their jurisdiction. Nothing here limits consumer protection rights you may have under the mandatory laws of your home country.

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date and, where appropriate, give additional notice. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised Terms.

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and the EULA are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them as part of a merger, acquisition, or sale. We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
