The Game automatically checks loops and scores for plausibility (Section 4.3). Reports are reviewed by a human; nothing happens to an account automatically because of a report alone, and accounts are never suspended or restricted automatically.

7.3 Reporting: You report a player in the Game in the chat or on their player card. Anyone, including people without an account, can also report illegal content to us by email to info@scafa-investments.com. Please state: why the content is illegal; exactly where it is (player name, clan, name of the land or spawn point, time, a screenshot if possible); your name and email address, except for reports of offences under Articles 3 to 7 of Directive 2011/93/EU (sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children); and your statement that the information is accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge.

We choose the measure according to the severity, consequences and repetition of the violation and the degree of fault, taking the interests of everyone involved into account. As a rule we warn first. Before suspending or terminating an account we tell you the reason and give you the opportunity to respond, except where others are at risk or in case of serious violations of the law, such as illegal content, threats or faking a location; then we may act at once and hear you afterwards.

7.5 Statement of reasons: If we restrict your content or your account, we tell you by email or in the Game at the latest when the measure takes effect, stating the type and duration of the measure, the facts it is based on, the rule or law breached, whether automated means were involved, and how you can challenge it (Article 17 DSA).

8.3 In the shop you receive finds with cards in exchange for coins. Before you buy, the shop shows the price in coins and how many and what kind of cards a find contains; which cards exactly it holds is decided by chance.

8.4 We may change values, prices in coins, card values, find chances and game rules if there is a valid reason, such as game balance, fixing errors, preventing abuse or legal requirements, and the change is reasonable for you. Anything you received only through an error or through a breach of Section 5 we may correct.

11.1 We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, for fraudulently concealed defects, under a guarantee we have given and under the German Product Liability Act.

11.2 In case of slight negligence we are liable only if we breach an essential contractual obligation, that is, an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose observance you may regularly rely. Liability is then limited to the damage that is typical for the contract and foreseeable.

11.3 Otherwise our liability for slight negligence is excluded, including for damage from inaccurate location detection (Section 4.3) and for the loss of game progress, unless 11.1 or 11.2 applies.
