Legal
Terms of Service
The rules of engagement for Crown Prince Gaming accounts, payments, bookings, and community conduct.
1. Who These Terms Are Between
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and [Legal Entity Name] ("Crown Prince Gaming," "we," "us"), the operator of the Crown Prince Gaming website and services (the "Platform").
By creating an account, applying as a Companion, or booking a session, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and — if you apply as a Companion — the Companion Agreement.
2. What the Platform Is
Crown Prince Gaming is a marketplace that connects players ("Customers") with independent gaming companions ("Companions") for paid coaching, co-play, and ranked-session bookings.
We are not a party to the gaming session itself — we provide the account system, discovery, scheduling, payment processing (via Stripe), and dispute-resolution tools that let Customers and Companions transact with each other.
3. Eligibility and Accounts
You must be at least [18] years old to create an account or make a booking. [Confirm the minimum age with counsel — this must account for the jurisdictions you operate in and any minor-protection obligations tied to real-money payments.]
You may register with an email and password, or through Discord or Google sign-in. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity under your account.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, as described in Section 10.
4. Becoming a Companion
To offer sessions as a Companion, you must submit an application, including identity and rank verification, and pay a one-time, Stripe-processed verification fee. Applications are reviewed and approved or rejected by our team.
Once approved, your Companion profile, pricing, and specialties are visible on the Platform, and you may receive bookings. Your full compensation terms, tier system, and conduct standards are set out in the separate Companion Agreement, which you must also accept.
5. Bookings and Payments
Customers book a Companion for a fixed session length at the Companion's listed hourly rate. Payment is collected in full, in USD, through Stripe at the time of booking — we do not store your full card details ourselves.
The total you pay is split between the Companion and the Platform's service fee; the split depends on the Companion's tier at the time of booking and does not change retroactively if their tier changes later.
A booking is not confirmed until Stripe confirms payment. If checkout expires or a payment is declined, no booking is created and nothing is charged.
6. Cancellations, Refunds, and Disputes
Cancellation and refund eligibility are described in our Refund Policy. In short: unpaid or expired checkout attempts are automatically voided at no charge, and refund or cancellation requests for paid bookings are reviewed by our team through the order-support flow available on the order page, not processed automatically.
Session completion requires confirmation from both the Customer and the Companion before the Companion's payout is released, which lets either party flag a problem before funds move.
7. Reviews
Customers may leave a rating and written review only for a session marked completed on their own order, and only once per order. Reviews should reflect an honest account of the session.
8. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to, and not to help anyone else:
- Harass, threaten, or discriminate against another user
- Share another person's personal information without their consent
- Attempt to arrange payment, or request payment, outside the Platform's checkout to avoid fees
- Misrepresent your identity, age, rank, or verification status
- Use the Platform for any unlawful purpose, or to violate another party's intellectual property or privacy rights
- Attempt to circumvent account suspensions, rate limits, or security controls
9. Membership Tiers
Customers may hold a membership tier reflecting platform activity or a paid subscription, and Companions are assigned a tier that affects their commission rate and visibility in search results. Tier criteria, benefits, and pricing may change; we will not reduce benefits you have already paid for during an active subscription term.
10. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or permanently ban an account that violates these Terms, receives a substantiated safety report, or is subject to a Stripe chargeback or dispute pending review. A suspension or ban ends all active sessions for that account and, for Companions, deactivates their public listing.
You may stop using the Platform and request account deletion at any time; see our Privacy Policy for how we handle your data after deletion.
11. Disclaimers
The Platform is provided "as is." We vet Companion applications but do not guarantee the conduct, skill, or availability of any Companion, or that any session will meet your expectations.
[Counsel to add a jurisdiction-appropriate disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability clause here.]
12. Governing Law and Disputes
[Counsel to specify the governing law, venue, and — if desired — arbitration or class-action-waiver provisions for this section, consistent with the jurisdictions the Platform actually serves.]
13. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make a material change, we will post the updated Terms with a new effective date. Continuing to use the Platform after that date means you accept the changes.
