Preamble

These Terms of Service are subject to change at anytime. By signing up to the game or logging in to your account, you are agreeing to these terms and any updates there in. While we attempt to give notice to updates, there may be times in which we do not. This does not negate your responsibility to the current Terms of Service.

1.2 Accurate and Current Information

When registering for Secfenia, you agree to (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the registration form and (b) maintain and promptly update it to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete. Failure to do so or the suspicion of such results in reasonable grounds for your account to be suspended or any/all current or future use of the Service to be terminated.
