Welcome to WeDraught ("Platform", "we", "us", "our"). By accessing, browsing, or using our web applications, mobile services, or associated draughts engines, you ("User", "Player") enter into a legally binding agreement in accordance with international digital service standards, including the UN Convention on Electronic Communications and the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).
If you do not agree to these Terms of Service in their entirety, you must immediately discontinue all use of the Platform. Continued participation in online matches, study modules, or community forums constitutes ongoing affirmation of your consent.
Age Requirement: You must be at least 13 years of age (or 16 years of age within jurisdictions governed by the EU General Data Protection Regulation) to create an account. Minors may use WeDraught solely under verifiable parental or legal guardian supervision.
Single Identity Principle: Each player is permitted to maintain only one active competitive rating account. Creating duplicate ("smurf") accounts to manipulate ratings, evade sanctions, or deceive opponents constitutes a severe breach of these Terms and will result in immediate rating forfeiture and permanent platform bans.
Credential Security: You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials (including OAuth provider tokens). You agree to notify WeDraught immediately upon discovering any unauthorized breach or account compromise.
Prohibited Conduct in Competitive Play:
WeDraught employs automated behavioral heuristics, move deviation metrics, and statistical engine correlation analysis. Accounts flagged for non-human calculation profiles are subject to automatic rating confiscation, match annulment, and account termination without appeal.
All gameplay on WeDraught adheres strictly to the official rules established by the FΓ©dΓ©ration Mondiale du Jeu de Dames (FMJD), including:
Elo ratings are mathematical approximations of relative skill calculated via Glicko-2 and standard Elo algorithms. Ratings remain the property of the Platform and may be recalculated, corrected, or reset in instances of system error or fair-play corrections.
WeDraught champions sportsmanship, intellectual respect, and global inclusivity. Users agree never to:
The WeDraught brand, trademarks, gameboard design, sound effects, graphic assets, animations, and proprietary algorithms are protected under international copyright and intellectual property treaties.
Game Move Notation (PDN / Portable Draughts Notation): Move sequences, clocks, and match outcomes played on public or rated servers are factual historical data and are made accessible under open sporting analysis standards.
The platform is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. We do not warrant that gameplay will be completely uninterrupted or error-free, nor do we assume liability for match losses incurred as a result of client-side ISP dropouts, packet loss, or hardware failures.
To the fullest extent permitted by international applicable law, WeDraught disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
These Terms shall be interpreted and governed in harmony with internationally accepted commercial law principles and the rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). Any unresolved disputes arising hereunder shall be submitted to confidential, binding international arbitration.
For legal notices, fair play appeals, or terms compliance inquiries, please submit a formal dispatch via our Support Center or email [email protected].
