See also the [Terms of Service](TERMS.md) and the > [Privacy Policy](PRIVACY.md), which are likewise DRAFTs. # End User License Agreement (EULA) This is a working draft for the CS2 Arbitrage Bot desktop application ("the Software"), provided by Practical Systems ("we", "us"). It is **not legal advice** and **must be reviewed by a qualified attorney** before you rely on it. By installing or using the Software you agree to the terms below. ## 1. License grant Subject to your compliance with this EULA and, for paid features, a valid license, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the Software on devices you control. A pro license unlocks live trading and pro features; the free simulation mode is available without a license. You may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, reverse-engineer (except where that restriction is unenforceable by law), or remove license-enforcement or safety mechanisms from the Software. ## 2. Licensing tiers and payment Pro features are available under two tiers, as described at the point of purchase: - a **one-time perpetual license** (currently listed at **USD $149**), and - a **monthly subscription** (currently listed at **USD $19/month**). Prices, tier contents, and availability may change and are as stated at the time of purchase. Purchases are processed by our **Merchant of Record, Polar**, which handles billing and the collection/remittance of applicable VAT and sales tax; see the [Privacy Policy](PRIVACY.md) for how payment data is handled. A license is verified **offline** on your device. Any refund policy is as stated at purchase and in the [Terms of Service](TERMS.md). [LAWYER REVIEW REQUIRED] — Refund, auto-renewal, and consumer-withdrawal terms for both tiers must be confirmed by counsel and kept consistent with the Terms of Service and Polar's checkout. ## 3. AS-IS / no warranty THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED **"AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND**, express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Software will be uninterrupted, error-free, profitable, or that it will detect or execute any particular trade. The Software relies on **unofficial, undocumented, and fragile third-party APIs** (CSFloat, Steam, and the read-only price connectors) that can change or break without notice. ## 4. No financial, trading, or tax advice The Software is a tool, **not** a financial advisor, broker, fiduciary, or tax preparer. Nothing it displays — including detected "opportunities", profit estimates, price history, analytics, backtest results, or the Ledger/tax worksheet — is financial, investment, trading, or tax advice or a recommendation to buy, hold, or sell anything. All trading decisions are **solely yours**. Past or simulated results **do not predict or guarantee future results**, and the Software makes **no guarantee of profit**. The Ledger and any tax/cost-basis export produce a **worksheet for your accountant** to help you organize records. They are **not** tax advice, a tax filing, or a representation that any output is accurate or compliant for your jurisdiction. You are responsible for verifying figures and for your own tax obligations and filings. ## 5. Limitation of liability — trading losses AND account bans TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR: - **Trading losses** — any loss of capital, profits, value, or opportunity arising from your use of the Software, including losses from mispricing, stale prices, float/pattern misjudgment, the 7-day Steam trade hold, low liquidity, failed or unfilled orders, or wallet-locked Steam funds; and - **Account bans / suspensions** — any suspension, ban, restriction, trade hold, or loss of access to any Steam, CSFloat, or third-party marketplace account, and any inventory or funds locked or lost as a result. Our aggregate liability for any claim relating to the Software will not exceed the amount you paid us for the Software in the 12 months before the claim (or, if you paid nothing, USD $0). We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. ## 6. Your responsibilities — Steam Subscriber Agreement and third-party ToS You are solely responsible for complying with all applicable agreements and laws, including the **Steam Subscriber Agreement** and the **Terms of Service / API terms of every marketplace and API** you connect (CSFloat, Skinport, DMarket, Buff163, Bitskins, Waxpeer, CS.MONEY, Pricempire, and any other). You are responsible for the accounts, API keys, and credentials you supply, for keeping them secure, and for the consequences of automation on your accounts. ## 7. Steam Market buying is intentionally unsupported The Software **intentionally does not automate buying on the Steam Community Market** because automating it violates the Steam Subscriber Agreement and risks an account ban. Steam Market is used only as a price reference and a manual (you-perform-it) sell venue. Do not attempt to circumvent this restriction. ## 8. Design, not a guarantee The noban.gg name and the Software's safety design describe **how the Software is engineered**: it is built to refuse to automate actions that most often get accounts restricted, including automated Steam Market buying (Section 7), and it only auto-runs operations rated `auto` in its capability matrix. This is a statement about the Software's design and behavior. It is **not a promise, warranty, or guarantee** that your account will not be banned, suspended, restricted, or otherwise actioned, and it does not control or predict how Valve or any third party enforces its rules. No tool can guarantee that outcome. Sections 3 (AS-IS / no warranty) and 5 (Limitation of liability) govern, and you accept the risk of account action as described in Section 9 (Simulation default and live mode) of this Agreement. ## 9. Simulation default and live mode The Software defaults to **simulation (paper trading)**: no real money moves and no live Steam action occurs unless you deliberately disable simulation, pass the backend live-confirm guard, and hold a valid pro license. The license gate is **additive** — a missing or invalid license keeps the Software in simulation and can never make it more permissive. **You accept all risk of operating in live mode**, including the risk of financial loss and of account action by Steam or any third party. ## 10. Privacy and local-first data The Software is **local-first**: your trades, license, secrets, and other data stay on your device. Opt-in telemetry (error monitoring) is **off by default** and, when enabled, scrubs personally identifying information before any event is sent. See the [Privacy Policy](PRIVACY.md) for details. ## 11. Updates The Software may offer updates via its update channel. Updates are not installed silently; you confirm them. We may modify or discontinue features. ## 12. Termination This license terminates automatically if you breach it. On termination you must stop using and delete the Software. Sections 3–9 survive termination. ## 13. Governing law Governing law and venue to be specified on attorney review. [LAWYER REVIEW REQUIRED] — Governing law, venue, and any arbitration/class-action-waiver clause are unspecified and must be set by counsel for the target market(s).
