5. PROHIBITED USES
5.1

SOFTWARE MODIFICATIONS. User may not attempt to modify, decompile, reverse-engineer or disassemble the Software in any way.

5.2

PERSONAL USE. The Service is intended solely for the User's personal use. The User is only allowed to wager for his/her personal entertainment. Under no circumstances shall a User be permitted to use his/her "real money account" with The Stars Group for any purpose other than for using the Service. The User must provide full and truthful information in respect of all details and information provided by the User to The Stars Group and the User is obligated to update such details in the event of any change thereto.

5.3

COLLUSION. Collusion between Users by sharing poker hole cards or by any other methods is strictly forbidden. The Stars Group reserves the right, in addition to other measures, to restrict seating and/or to prohibit Users from playing at a particular poker table or in a tournament, including restricting two or more Users from playing together at the same table or in the same tournament. In addition, The Stars Group reserves the right to consider any collusion or attempt at collusion between players (including Users) as a material breach of this Agreement and accordingly The Stars Group shall have the right to terminate a User's account if a User engages or attempts to engage in any such activity, regardless of the outcome of such attempt.

5.4

EXTERNAL PLAYER ASSISTANCE TOOLS. The Stars Group prohibits external player assistance tools ("EPA Tools") that are designed to provide an "unfair advantage" to players. The Stars Group defines "EPA Tools" as computer software (other than the Software), and non-software-based systems (e.g. web sites, subscription services and physical material). The Stars Group takes a broad view of what constitutes an "unfair advantage" in the context of any use of EPA Tools and specific guidance can be found in our Third Party Tools and Services FAQ. For the avoidance of doubt, what is prohibited encompasses but is not limited to accessing or compiling information on other players beyond that which the User has personally observed through the User's own game play or receiving advice, direction or assistance on how to play, in real time, that goes beyond a basic level.

5.5

AUTOMATIC PLAYERS (BOTS). The use of artificial intelligence including, without limitation, "robots" is strictly forbidden in connection with the Service. All actions taken in relation to the Service by a User must be executed personally by players through the user interface accessible by use of the Software, and without the assistance of any form of artificial intelligence.

5.6

You agree that The Stars Group may take steps to detect and prevent the use of prohibited EPA Tools. These steps may include, but are not limited to, examination of software programs running concurrently with The Stars Group Software on the User's computer. You agree that you will not attempt to bypass, interfere with, or block such steps, including, without limitation, the use of third party software that bypasses, interferes with, or blocks such steps.

5.7

CHIP-DUMPING. Chip-dumping occurs when any User intentionally loses a poker hand in order to deliberately transfer his chips to another User. Any User who participates or attempts to participate in chip-dumping with any other User, including being the recipient of funds, while using the Service may be permanently banned from using the Service and their User account may be terminated immediately. In such circumstances The Stars Group will be under no obligation to refund to you any monies that may be in your User account at such time.

5.8

FRAUDULENT BEHAVIOR. In the event that The Stars Group deems that a User has engaged or attempted to engage in fraudulent, unlawful, dishonest or improper activity while using the Service, including without limitation, engaging in any of the activities set forth in this Clause 5 or any other game manipulation, or the making of any fraudulent payment, including without limitation, use of a stolen credit card or fraudulent chargeback or money laundering, The Stars Group shall be entitled to take such action as it sees fit, including, but not limited to:

  1. immediately blocking a User's access to the Service;
  2. terminating a User's account with The Stars Group;
  3. seizing the funds within a User's account;
  4. disclosing such information (including the identity of the User) to financial institutions, relevant authorities and/or any person or entity that has the legal right to such information; and/or
  5. taking legal action against a User.
5.9

CURRENCY EXCHANGE. Users are able to effect currency exchange transactions via the Service on their PC or Device with funds standing to the credit of such User's account (the "Currency Exchange Facility"). All currency exchange transactions on the Currency Exchange Facility will take place at the current prevailing rate offered by The Stars Group for the transaction type in question. The exchange rates will be updated on a regular basis, and it is possible that different rates may be offered depending on the type of transaction and movement in currency value. Users should ensure they are aware of fluctuations in the exchange rate and the impact this may have on their available funds before using the Currency Exchange Facility. The Stars Group will not be held responsible for gains and losses incurred by Users that utilise the Currency Exchange Facility. Users should also be aware that The Stars Group applies a margin on currency exchanges effected via the Currency Exchange Facility which it may, at its discretion, waive for some types of transactions. A margin may, for instance, be applied to currency exchanges in connection with deposits or withdrawals, intra-account transfers or auto-conversion in situations where the currency exchanged is different from the currency used in the Games. The Stars Group may also, at its discretion, revoke or withdraw support for any particular currency without notice.

The use of the Currency Exchange Facility and/or User's account to engage in currency trading or speculation is strictly prohibited. To help maintain the integrity of the Currency Exchange Facility, we have the right to, in our sole discretion:

  1. decline or reverse any currency conversion transactions effected via the Currency Exchange Facility; and/or
  2. limit the number of currencies held by a User in such User's account and the amount of money that may be converted between currencies by that User; and/or
  3. require that funds held in a User's account and converted via the Currency Exchange Facility into a different currency be used for playing the Games before being withdrawn, transferred or used for any other purpose; and/or
  4. retroactively apply any margin which was waived as part of a currency conversion transaction.

The User agrees to and accepts the terms and conditions relating to real money transaction processing and currency exchange located here.

5.10

The Stars Group prohibits persons who do not have a permanent address or usually reside in Sweden from registering an account for engaging in RM Games (the "Prohibited Jurisdictions").

Any attempt to circumvent the restrictions on play by any persons located in a Prohibited Jurisdiction, is a breach of this Agreement. An attempt at circumvention includes, but is not limited to, manipulating the information used by The Stars Group to identify your location and providing The Stars Group with false or misleading information regarding your location or place of residence. Any such attempt will entitle us to take such steps as we deem appropriate including, without limitation, seizing the funds in your User account.

6. WITHDRAWAL POLICY

The policy and criteria for a User to effect a withdrawal from his/her User account can be found in our Withdrawal Policy. The Stars Group reserves the right to use additional eligibility criteria to determine the withdrawal options Users may be offered at any given time.

7. OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE OR CONTENT

The User is prohibited from posting any unlawful, indecent, racist, obscene, libelous, defamatory or threatening material or any material that would violate any law or generally be considered to be offensive, via the Service whether using the chat function, the player images option or in correspondence with The Stars Group's staff.

8. BREACH

4. YOUR REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Prior to your use of the Service and on an ongoing basis you represent, warrant, covenant and agree that:

4.1

your use of the Service is at your sole option, discretion and risk;

4.2

the telecommunications networks and Internet access services required for you to access and use the Service are entirely beyond the control of Stars Mobile and Stars Mobile shall have no liability whatsoever for any outages, slowness, capacity constraints or other deficiencies affecting the same;

4.3

you are prohibited from using the Service in any way to create, receive or facilitate the transfer or receipt of any financial gain or other pecuniary advantage to you or any third party (whether or not acting on your behalf). Virtual Chips have no value in and of themselves and are not transferable and exchangeable within a User account. Further, such Virtual Chips have no value in themselves and are not redeemable for any 'real' currency or prize. Thus you are prohibited from sublicensing, renting, leasing, selling, trading, gifting, bequeathing or otherwise transferring your User account or any Virtual Chips associated with your User account to a third person;

4.4

you are aged 18 or over and that you are not currently self-excluded from any online or mobile gambling site and that you will inform us immediately if you enter into a self-exclusion agreement with any gambling provider;

you are not prohibited due to your geographic location or otherwise from receiving funds from The Stars Group; and

4.8

if you are identified as such a person as detailed in Clause 4.6 or 4.7, The Stars Group may immediately terminate your account and all access to any of the Service.

5. PROHIBITED USES
5.1

SOFTWARE MODIFICATIONS. User may not attempt to modify, decompile, reverse-engineer or disassemble the Software in any way.

The User must provide full and truthful information in respect of all details and information provided by the User to Stars Mobile and the User is obligated to update such details in the event of any change thereto.

5.3

COLLUSION. Collusion between Users by sharing poker hole cards or by any other methods is strictly forbidden.

Stars Mobile defines "EPA Tools" as computer software (other than the Software), and non-software-based systems (e.g. web sites, subscription services and physical material). Stars Mobile takes a broad view of what constitutes an "unfair advantage" in the context of any use of EPA Tools and specific guidance can be found in our Third Party Tools and Services FAQ. For the avoidance of doubt, what is prohibited encompasses but is not limited to accessing or compiling information on other players beyond that which the User has personally observed through the User's own game play or receiving advice, direction or assistance on how to play, in real time, that goes beyond a basic level.

5.5

AUTOMATIC PLAYERS (BOTS). The use of artificial intelligence including, without limitation, "robots" is strictly forbidden in connection with the Service. All actions taken in relation to the Service by a User must be executed personally by players through the user interface accessible by use of the Software, and without the assistance of any form of artificial intelligence.

5.6

You agree that Stars Mobile may take steps to detect and prevent the use of prohibited EPA Tools. These steps may include, but are not limited to, examination of software programs running concurrently with the Stars Mobile Software on the User's computer. You agree that you will not attempt to bypass, interfere with, or block such steps, including, without limitation, the use of third party software that bypasses, interferes with, or blocks such steps.

5.7

CHIP-DUMPING. Chip-dumping occurs when any User intentionally loses a poker hand in order to deliberately transfer his Virtual Chips to another User. Any User who participates or attempts to participate in chip-dumping with any other User, while using the Service may be permanently banned from using the Service and their User account may be terminated immediately. In such circumstances Stars Mobile will be under no obligation to return or credit to you any Virtual Chips that may be in your User account at such time.

5.8

FRAUDULENT BEHAVIOR. In the event that Stars Mobile deems that a User has engaged or attempted to engage in fraudulent, unlawful, dishonest or improper activity while using the Service, including without limitation, engaging in any of the activities set forth in this Clause 5 or any other game manipulation, or the making of any fraudulent payment, including without limitation, use of a stolen credit card or fraudulent chargeback or money laundering, Stars Mobile shall be entitled to take such action as it sees fit, including, but not limited to:

  2. violation by you of any law or any third party rights; and
  3. use by you of the Service or use by any other person accessing the Service using your Login Credentials (as defined below), whether or not with your authorization.
8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
