To register an account with us, you must provide including but not limited to, your name, email address, date of birth, user ID, and a password of your choice. When you create an account, you will have access to ggLeap and ggCircuit.
Your ggLeap access allows you to play games at the LAN center by purchasing time for computer usage at the LAN center. You can also track and increase your time (for example, purchase a day pass or special offer), order snacks (not available at all LAN centers) and redeem prices with coins (if available at the LAN center).
Your ggCircuit access allows you to compete with gamers at other ggLeap enabled LAN centers, earn coins based on your game play and redeem rewards for those coins (if available at the LAN center). Your game stats are tracked and posted to leaderboards. You can cancel your subscription at any time but the pre-paid monthly fee is not refundable.
In addition, by becoming a member of the Service, you agree that any information you provide to ggCircuit about yourself, will be true, accurate, current and complete when provided. This information is used to identify you as a "unique user" of the Service. If we learn that you provided false or misleading
registration information, we may terminate your access to or use of the Service without notice. You are responsible for all actions taken under your account and shall only use the Service using your own user ID and password. You must use every effort to keep your password safe and should not disclose it to any other person. You agree to (a) immediately notify ggCircuit of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You may not transfer or sell your user ID to any other person. You may not permit, either directly or indirectly, any other person to use your user ID or password. We will use your account information in accordance with these Terms and the Privacy Policy which can be found at http://media.ggleap.com.s3.amazonaws.com/legal/English/ggCircuit_Privacy%20Policy.htm.

2. LAN CENTERS
When you create a ggLeap account at a LAN center, you may be required to agree to their privacy statement and other policies.

3. EVENTS
When you register for events and activities through the Service, you may be required to agree to the official rules that may include eligibility, format and prize structure. You must register separately for each event or activity. Rules and eligibility may vary.
4. FEES
The usage rates at each LAN center may vary. If you choose to upgrade to a paid ggCircuit subscription, you will need to select your subscription level and method of payment when you set up your Account. You may change your subscription or payment information at any time by logging into your Account.
Your Account is automatically renewed each subscription term until you cancel by logging into your account and changing the subscription status or by contacting ggCircuit at [email protected] (if using this method, your subscription is not canceled until you have received a confirmation from ggCircuit). The cancellation will be effective prior to your next subscription term. It is your responsibility to pay all amounts as and when due. If you fail to make payment as and when due, ggCircuit may suspend or terminate your Account. Any such suspension or termination will not, however, relieve you of your obligation to pay the missed payment. Fees are nonrefundable, and no refunds will be made including but not limited to lack of ggLeap availability due to a network configuration, software issue, hardware issue, or other failures.
