Terms of Service

1. Service Description & Hosting Provider Status

PlayGaraj operates strictly as an independent, third-party User-Generated Content (UGC) hosting and listing provider. The Platform allows users to voluntarily share, publish, and browse listings related to virtual vehicles or custom design configurations.

• Hosting Infrastructure: The sole function of our Services is to provide a technical hosting infrastructure for user-submitted listings. We do not own, sell, trade, or distribute any virtual items, assets, or software related to any third-party game.
• Platform Independence: Our Platform is completely independent and is not authorized, endorsed, sponsored, affiliated, or officially connected with any game publishers, developers, or console manufacturers.
• Non-Interference: We do not modify game files, access game databases, alter official game economies, or violate the technical systems of any game.

2. Trademark & Intellectual Property Disclaimer

All brand names, trademarks, vehicle designs, game names, and visual assets displayed in listings on the Platform belong entirely to their respective intellectual property holders.

• Fair Use: References to game titles, vehicle brands, or game modes in user descriptions are purely descriptive, used solely for the purpose of identifying the context of the user-generated listing, and fall under fair use principles.
• No Partnership: PlayGaraj does not claim any ownership of the referenced game trademarks, and no official relationship or partnership is implied.

3. User Content & Responsibility

Every listing, image, text description, and communication shared on the Platform is the sole responsibility of the user who publishes it.

• Accuracy and Legality: Some listings pass through an automated check before publication, as described in Section 4. That check is limited in scope, is not applied to every listing, and does not verify or guarantee the legality, safety, or accuracy of user-submitted content. Responsibility for a listing remains at all times with the user who published it.
• Compliance: Users guarantee that their shared content does not violate any local laws, third-party rights, or the End User License Agreements (EULA) / Terms of Service of the respective game developers.
• Prohibited Activities: Users are prohibited from using the Platform to facilitate fraudulent activities, sell prohibited hacks/cheats, or distribute malicious software.
• Integration of Community Guidelines: In addition to these Terms, your use of the Platform is strictly governed by the PlayGaraj Community Guidelines. The Community Guidelines are hereby incorporated into these Terms by reference. Any breach or violation of the Community Guidelines constitutes a direct and immediate breach of these Terms of Service.
• Tiered Listing Framework & Unauthorized Commercial Activities: PlayGaraj operates a tiered marketplace framework. Users operating under a Standard Account are strictly restricted to publishing and listing virtual assets using the default in-game currency framework, designated as Game Money (GM). Standard accounts are strictly prohibited from soliciting, advertising, or requesting real-world fiat currency, external payment methods, or gift cards within listings or user-to-user communications. The capability to input a "Custom Offer" (allowing flexible value definitions including local or international fiat representations) is a premium privilege reserved exclusively for PRO Subscription tiers. Bypassing these tier restrictions by Standard accounts constitutes a direct violation of these Terms.

4. Listing Review & Automated Moderation

Some listings are checked before they become visible to other users. This section explains how that check works, what happens if a listing does not pass, and what you can do about it.

• Right of Review: We reserve the right to review listings before or after publication, and to reject, hide, or remove any listing we consider to breach these Terms or the Community Guidelines.
• Automated Decision-Making: This check is carried out by automated means, using an artificial intelligence service provided by Google. The decision to publish or reject a listing is therefore made automatically, without a person examining the listing. A human becomes involved only where the automated check is inconclusive, or where you contest the outcome.
• Statement of Reasons: If a listing is rejected, its owner is shown the reason for the decision in the Application and receives a notification. The reason identifies the category of rule the listing was found to breach.
• Correction and Resubmission: A rejected listing is not shown to other users, but it remains visible to you. Where the issue can be corrected, you may edit the listing and submit it again, which starts a new review.
• Contesting a Decision: If you believe a rejection is mistaken, you may contest it through our Contact page. A person will examine the case; an automated rejection is not the final word. Platform administration may lift a rejection and publish the listing.
• Deletion After Seven Days: A rejected listing is deleted automatically 7 days after the decision. If you wish to keep its content, save it before that period expires.
• Scope and Limits: This system is being introduced gradually and is not active for every user or every listing. If the check cannot run for a technical reason, the listing is published rather than held back. Accordingly, publication does not mean a listing has been reviewed, approved, or found lawful, and we make no representation that all content breaching these Terms is detected or prevented. The reporting, shadow-ban, and enforcement measures described in the Community Guidelines continue to apply after publication.

This section is provided in part to meet the transparency requirements of Article 14 of the EU Digital Services Act concerning the use of automated means in content moderation. What listing data is sent for review — and what account data is deliberately withheld — is set out in Section 1.10 of our Privacy Policy.

5. Limitation of Liability (Trades & Transactions)

PlayGaraj acts exclusively as a passive listing host and is not an active party to any interactions, negotiations, or trades between users.

• Financial Liability: The Platform does not process payments, escrow transactions, or facilitate virtual trades. We assume no responsibility or liability for agreements, financial transactions, scams, disputes, or losses resulting from user-to-user interactions.
• Game Account Status & Bans: Users acknowledge that using third-party platforms for listing game-related assets may violate the EULA or ToS of certain game publishers. PlayGaraj holds no liability for any actions taken by game publishers against user accounts, including account bans, suspensions, restrictions, or removal of in-game items. The user assumes all associated risks.
• External Communications: We have no control over communication, transactions, or agreements occurring outside the Platform (e.g., via Discord, WhatsApp, or Telegram). Any off-platform interactions are entirely at the user's own risk.

6. Account Suspension & Termination

Platform administration reserves the absolute right to suspend, restrict, or permanently terminate user accounts at its sole discretion, without prior notice, if scamming, fraudulent activity, or violations of these Terms of Service are detected.

• Confidentiality of Moderation Logs: To ensure the core safety of our network, maintain platform integrity, and protect user privacy—with absolute emphasis on the protection of minors—all internal moderation reviews, automated safety flags, verification logs, and raw chat transcripts are strictly proprietary and confidential. PlayGaraj is under no legal or operational obligation to disclose, share, or present unredacted logs or evidence to terminated accounts.

7. Acceptance & Changes to Terms

By using the Application, accessing the Website, or publishing listings on our Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms of Service. We reserve the right to update these terms at any time. Continued use of the Services indicates acceptance of any revised terms.

8. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms of Service and any disputes arising out of or related to the Services provided by QEQRON shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Azerbaijan, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding related to the Platform shall be brought exclusively in the courts of Azerbaijan.
