attempts by Users to manipulate the results of the Game through collaborative practices, program modifications or any other means;
Users intentionally causing or exploiting malfunctions or defects in the Game and/or games in order to undermine the natural flow of the game and/or influence the results;
collecting personal information about other Users without their express prior consent;
transmitting any type of viruses, corrupted content or spam or attempting any other interference or disruption of other computer systems and programs;

User’s use of the Game for purposes other than personal;

intentionally or unintentionally allowing any other User to use their Account; and
the violation by User of any other provision of these ToU.
5.2 In the event of User’s misconduct, breach of these ToU or breach of applicable legal provision, the Operator reserves the right to block the User’s account with immediate effect and to exclude the User from any further use of the Game until the matter has been fully clarified or to close the User’s account by terminating the Agreement between the User and the Operator. Furthermore, in these cases, the Operator is also entitled to interrupt ongoing games. In such instances all rewards will be cancelled, and the User will not be entitled to claim the refund of money spent on the purchase of premium currency or premium services and/or the refund of costs, if any, in connection with the provision of the User account. The Operator is entitled to invoice the User for any costs incurred through offsetting or claiming financial damages.
5.3 The Operator may block or delete the User account if the User fails to cooperate in investigations or respond adequately to appeals or requests from the Operator's administrators regarding Game events or situations. Users, in this case, are not entitled to claim refunds for money spent on premium currency or services, or any related costs in connection with the User account.
5.4 The unused premium currency and/or the financial value of the premium services purchased by the User, which will be confiscated after the blocking or deletion of the User's account in the Game due to the User's misconduct, represent the contractual fine, as agreed between the Operator and the User, for the above-mentioned conduct of the User. All the rights and privileges of the User connected with the User account become null and void upon the blocking or deletion of the User account from the Game.
5.5 The decision to block the User's account or to award other in-Game punishment is an exclusive right of the Operator's administrators. It is possible to file an appeal via e-mail to the administrator, who blocked the account or awarded the punishment. The final decision, however, is binding for the User. The administrator may, under certain circumstances, condition the unblocking of the account by a concretely settled compensation by the User – e.g. by activating premium services or other form based on the agreement with the User which is considered as a form of contractual fine. Whether or not the return to the Game via such compensation will be allowed to the User is exclusively at the administrator's discretion. The User may not automatically request such a procedure under any circumstances. In case such compensation is accepted, the User will be allowed to return to the Game with an in-Game fine compensating for the potential profit resulting from the violation of the rules. A repeated violation of the rules by the same User will result in an immediate and irrevocable block of the User's account. By agreeing with these ToU, the User accepts that it is not possible to appeal the final decision of the administrator in any other institution and also accepts the fact that administrators have the exclusive right to judge whether the User is guilty or not and to enforce a corresponding punishment.
5.6 The above-mentioned reasons for blocking or deletion of the User's account in the Game are not complete and the Operator reserves the right to make a decision at its sole discretion whether the conduct of the User is violating these ToU or the rules of the Game. If the Operator determines that the User's conduct is in violation of the terms specified in these ToU or the rules of the Game, the Operator is authorized to block or delete the User's account in the Game at its sole discretion.
5.7 Blocking of the User’s account does not result in the termination of the contractual relationship between the User and the Operator.
6. Termination

The User hereby declares that he/she was duly informed that by registering in the Game or installing the Game on his/her device or accepting these ToU, he/she waives his/her right to withdraw from these ToU in accordance with the Act. This authorization is given at the moment of registration of the User in the Game or installation of the Game on the User's device or accepting these ToU and therefore the right to rescind a contract cannot be exercised in accordance.
6.2 The User may terminate playing the Game at any time by requesting the deletion of his/her account from the Game via e-mail to the address listed on the pages of the respective Game or to office@laserfocus.games with the exact identification of the Game, server and User account. By such termination the contractual relationship between the User and the Operator is also terminated. However, certain provisions of these ToU, the nature of which dictate so, remain in effect even after such termination of playing the Game. It will not be possible to use the account after deletion. The request for deletion of a User's account must clearly state the desire for deletion of the User's account. Uninstalling the Game from the User’s device does not delete the Users account and therefore does constitute termination of playing the Game.
6.3 In case of deletion of the User account per User's own request, the User is not entitled to claim the refund of money for the remaining amount of premium currency on the User's account, nor transfer of premium currency to a different User account. The purchased unused premium services cannot be transferred to a different User account and the User is not entitled to claim a refund of money. Likewise, the premium currency or money spent on activation or purchase of premium services will not be refunded. It is not possible to transfer the remaining amount of premium currency from one User account to another except for situations when this is specifically permitted by the Operator upon a written request by the User. The permission of the Operator to transfer gems is entirely at the discretion of the Operator and it cannot be demanded in any way.
