6. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS
6.1 Prohibited US States/Countries
You understand that there are specific laws, rules, and regulations governing sweepstakes, contests, and tournaments involving entry fees and prizes, known as "Gaming Laws," which are established by each US state, country, territory, or jurisdiction. As a result, Token Competitions are not available to users in any jurisdiction where such Competitions would be in violation of the Gaming Laws ("Prohibited Jurisdiction"), and you may not participate in Token Competitions if you are in any Prohibited Jurisdiction. In the United States, Prohibited Jurisdiction includes Arizona, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Louisiana, Montana, New Mexico, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Tennessee, and for card games, Prohibited Jurisdictions include Maine and Indiana. It is your responsibility to determine whether the state, country, territory or jurisdiction in which you are located is a Prohibited Jurisdiction. We reserve the right, although not obligated, to monitor your location while accessing our Services and block access from any Prohibited Jurisdiction.
6.2 Additional Laws
Along with Gaming Laws, you must comply with all city, state, and federal laws, rules, and regulations applicable to your location and use of Services, including but not limited to U.S. securities laws, commodities laws, money transmission regulations, and sanction and export laws (collectively referred to as "Applicable Laws"). It is your responsibility to abide by all Applicable Laws. Note that certain jurisdictions may not allow some or all of the Competitions, and may not be lawful for some or all residents or individuals present in those jurisdictions.
COMPETITIONS AND SERVICES MAY BE VOID OR RESTRICTED IN CERTAIN JURISDICTION BY APPLICABLE LAWS, AND YOUR PARTICIPATION IN COMPETITIONS IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE IF YOUR ACCESS TO PARTICIPATION IS RESTRICTED OR PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAWS. WE DO NOT PROVIDE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE LEGALITY OF YOUR USE OF SERVICES OR PARTICIPATION IN ANY COMPETITION, AND NO PERSON AFFILIATED WITH US HAS THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES.
