Registration:

Registration of the user is a prerequisite for the use of online games and other services by Bianchi Networks

At registration, the user has to provide a player name and a registered e-mail address. The user is not entitled to receive a particular player name. The player name may not infringe rights of third parties and may also not offend common decency. Moreover, no e-mail or Web address may be chosen as the player name. The user shall ensure that the information provided to City Struggle at registration is true and complete.

The registration is carried out personally. Registration through third parties, especially a third party that registers individual people at several teleservice providers (registration services and/or entry services) is not permitted and may result in account deletion.

The acceptance of a registration request on City Struggle and the online account registration are confirmed via e-mail. In this e-mail the user receives an activation link. In this case City Struggle activates the user and the respective game account through the clicking on such activation link. When the account has been accepted or activated a user contract for an indefinite term between City Struggle and the user is being established.

User Data:

The user agrees to provide City Struggle with all future changes of his/her registration data, especially a change in the e-mail address, without delay. The user is obliged, to confirm City Struggle upon request the accuracy of his/her data. Failure to do so may result in a delay to any account / support action requested by yourself.

Log-in data, identification, passwords:

The user is obliged to keep log-in data and all identification and passwords strictly confidential.

The term “log-in data” and “identification and passwords” includes all letter and/or character and/or number sequences, used to authenticate the user and to exclude use by an unauthorized third party. The password should not be identical with the player name and it should consist of a combination of numbers and letters.

The user is obliged to protect all log-in data, identifications and passwords from unauthorized access of third parties.

In the event that the user has reason to believe that third parties have obtained this information, or could have, he/she shall inform Staff immediately and change his/her data or have it changed by Staff. In this case or in the event that staff has evidence of misuse of data, staff has the right to block the access of the user temporarily. The user shall be permitted again the use as soon as the suspicion of misuse of data has been removed.

The user is not allowed to block, to rewrite or to modify contents generated by the game administration or to interfere in any other manner with the game.

The user is also prohibited from running the online game (including all individual web pages) with other programs besides an Internet browser. This refers in particular to so-called bots and other tools meant to replace or supplement the Web interface.
