PARTICIPATION DISCLAIMER & RULES

1) No Guarantee of Any Gift or Reward

Participation in any puzzle, mini-game, challenge, side quest, leaderboard, or community activity on this site (collectively, “Activities”) does not guarantee that you will receive a gift, prize, payout, airdrop, access, or any other benefit. Outcomes depend on many factors (including luck, skill, timing, and adherence to the rules). No promise, warranty, or representation of any reward or outcome is made.

2) Voluntary Participation

All Activities are 100% voluntary. By participating, you confirm you are acting of your own free will and not in reliance on any promise of reward, employment, partnership, or future benefit.

3) Eligibility & Compliance

You are solely responsible for ensuring participation is lawful where you live. If it isn’t, do not participate.

We may restrict, void, or block participation from specific regions, IP ranges, or accounts at our discretion to comply with law or preserve integrity.

4) No Purchase Necessary; Not Gambling or Investment Advice

No purchase is required to participate. Any gifts, if offered, are gratuitous and may be modified, limited, substituted, withheld, or discontinued at any time.

Activities are not an offer of securities, financial products, or investment opportunities and must not be relied upon for financial decisions.

Activities are not gambling.

5) Cookie Use & Consent (Read This)

To support gameplay (e.g., remembering progress, settings, or state), this site may use cookies or similar local storage. By using the site, you accept this use.

If you are in a region that does not allow non-essential cookies or you do not consent, do not play. You may block cookies in your browser, but gameplay may not function.

6) Integrity & Anti-Abuse (Site-Wide)

We may disqualify or ban anyone reasonably believed to be cheating, exploiting, creating multiple/fake accounts, harassing others, violating platform/site rules, or undermining fair play. We may pause, modify, or cancel any Activity to protect game integrity.

7) Technical Issues

We do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Activities may experience bugs, downtime, or changes. We may void or re-run parts of an Activity affected by technical issues at our sole discretion.

8) Gifts, Awards, and Selection (If Any Are Offered)

If a gift is offered for a specific Activity, the type, quantity, criteria, and timing will be described at or before the Activity begins. Substitutions may occur.

Potential recipients may need to complete basic verification and respond within a stated time; failure may result in forfeiture.

Taxes/compliance: You are responsible for any taxes or filings in your jurisdiction.

9) Safety & Real-World Conduct

If an Activity involves real-world exploration: obey all laws and posted signs, respect private property, and use common-sense safety. Never put yourself or others at risk.

10) Intellectual Property

All site content (puzzles, text, images, code, audio, video) is protected. You receive a personal, non-transferable license to access and play as permitted. Don’t copy, rehost, decompile, or distribute without permission.

11) Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

Activities are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we and our partners are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost opportunities or expectations of gifts/rewards. If liability is found, our aggregate liability for any claim related to the Activities is limited to USD $50 (or the minimum amount permitted by law).

12) Indemnity

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Chad Bird, his family members, heirs, associates, affiliates, business entities, partners, contractors, agents, employees, and any other persons or entities associated with Trezor Quest or Chad Bird (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, liabilities, costs, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising from or related to:

(f) Any trespass, property damage, or violation of law committed by you in connection with Trezor Quest;

This indemnification obligation survives termination of your participation and these Rules.

13) Changes, Suspension, Termination

We may update these Rules or any Activity, or suspend/terminate access, at any time. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a revised “last updated” date.

18) Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 13, 2025

Information We Collect: We may collect information you voluntarily provide (email addresses for notifications, usernames, wallet addresses for prize distribution), technical data (IP addresses, browser type, device information, operating system), and gameplay data (progress, scores, timestamps, cookie/local storage data, session information).

How We Use Information: Information is used to operate and improve Activities, communicate about prizes or updates, prevent fraud and abuse, maintain game integrity, comply with legal obligations, analyze usage patterns, and respond to user inquiries.

Information Sharing: We do not sell personal information. We may share information with service providers (hosting, email, analytics) under confidentiality agreements, legal authorities when required by law or to protect rights and safety, prize fulfillment partners (only information necessary for delivery), and business transferees in the event of merger, acquisition, or asset sale. Aggregated, anonymized data may be shared for analytics or research purposes.

Data Security: We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption, access controls, and secure server infrastructure. However, no system is 100% secure, and internet transmission carries inherent risks. You acknowledge and accept these risks when participating.

Data Retention: We retain information as long as necessary for the purposes described, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements. Gameplay data may be retained indefinitely for integrity and historical purposes. You may request deletion of your personal information by contacting us, though we may retain certain information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

Third-Party Services: Our site may use third-party services (analytics platforms, content delivery networks, payment processors, hosting providers, APIs) that have their own privacy policies. These services may collect information independently. We are not responsible for third-party practices and encourage you to review their policies.

Cookies & Tracking: As described in our Cookie Policy, we use cookies and local storage for essential gameplay functionality, session management, and user preferences. These technologies enable features like saving progress, remembering settings, and preventing cheating. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so may impair or prevent gameplay functionality.

Children’s Privacy: Activities are not directed at children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn we have collected such information, we will delete it promptly. Parents or guardians who believe we may have information from a child under 13 should contact us immediately.

International Users: If you access Trezor Quest from outside the United States, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate. These jurisdictions may have different data protection standards than your home country. By using our site, you consent to such transfers.

Your Rights: Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws to: access personal information we hold about you, correct inaccurate information, request deletion of your information (subject to legal retention requirements), restrict or object to certain processing, request data portability, and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. To exercise these rights, contact us at chadbird@gmail.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

California Privacy Rights: California residents have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information is collected, disclosed, or sold, and the right to opt-out of sales (though we do not sell personal information). Contact us to exercise these rights.

European Users (GDPR): If you are in the European Economic Area, you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation, including rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and data portability. You may also lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. Our legal basis for processing includes: performance of contract, legitimate interests (game operation, fraud prevention), consent (where obtained), and legal compliance.

Do Not Track: Our site does not currently respond to “Do Not Track” browser signals, as there is no industry standard for compliance.

Changes to Privacy Policy: We may update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a revised “Effective Date.” We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of Trezor Quest after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
