- 12.5Upon receiving a report, the Company will investigate the cause of the interruption and provide a resolution in a timely manner. This may include restoring the game, voiding the game, and refunding bets, or other fair and equitable solutions, depending on the relevant Provider.
- 12.6The Company shall accept no liability for any damage or losses which are deemed or alleged to have arisen out of or in connection with the Website or its content, including without limitation, delays or interruptions in operation, transmission, loss or corruption of data, communication or lines failure, any person’s misuse of the Website or its content or errors or omissions in its content.
- 12.7The Company shall not be liable for computer malfunctions, failure of telecommunications Services or internet connections nor attempts by You to participate in games by methods, means or ways not intended by the Company. You are solely responsible for telecommunications devices and Services utilised by You to participate in Our Services.

13.Security Rules
- 13.1The Company upholds strict confidentiality regarding all relations with the User. Data will be disclosed if required by the governing authority, the operation of the law, or another public or regulatory authority, and/or in the event of the User acting in violation of the Terms, and accordingly, data can be disclosed to a third party for investigation purposes.
- 13.2You must choose a personal password for Your Account. It is Your own responsibility not to share this information with any third party. You will be responsible for all actions related to Your Account, even if carried out by a third party. The Company is under no obligation to refund funds in any such situation. There are several measures to take to keep Your account secure.
- 13.3It is Your responsibility to ensure that the device You use to access the Website is compatible with the Company’s Website. We will not take any responsibility if the device You are using to play and use the Company’s services and Website malfunctions, nor will We take any responsibility if You attempt to participate in any of the games or offers by methods, means or ways not intended by the Company on the Website.
- 13.4Never share Your online account. You should not share Your account or use another person’s account even though the person You would be sharing with is Your family member or a friend. Moreover, please keep in mind that to share Your account is strictly forbidden as described in Our Regulation.
- 13.5You must protect Your password. Do not use Your password anywhere else online. Your password should be difficult to guess. Avoid including Your name or frequently used words.
- 13.6It is Your responsibility to set strong passwords. Make Your password as random as possible, but easy for You to remember. Your password should be long enough, unconventional, a mix of several types of characters, better if not a dictionary word. Do not use numbers or combinations associated with other personally identifiable information as all or even part of Your passwords.
- 13.7It is also Your responsibility to change passwords regularly, especially when there is any doubt that they may have been compromised.
- 13.8You must not share Your login information. Do not divulge personal information about Your account including passwords to anyone – even people who claim to be from customer service or security. Keep in mind that We will never ask You for Your password.
- 13.9You must not write down Your password or save it on Your computer or mobile device. A Post-it note stuck to the outside of Your laptop or mobile phone is "akin to leaving Your keys in Your car".
- 13.10You must not leave Your computer or mobile device unlocked. It can take only seconds for someone to use this easy access and get the information they need for further malicious activities. Moreover, all it takes is a single mishap where Your device slips out of Your pocket or briefcase at a restaurant or on public transportation, and Your data could wind up in the hands of someone who will use it maliciously.
- 13.11You must not use the same passwords for Your operating systems and software/accounts passwords.
- 13.12You must not save passwords in Your browser. The common practice of 'remembering passwords' in browsers is a dangerous practice. Indeed, should someone gain access to Your computer or mobile device, they would be able to easily access any accounts for which You've stored login credentials in Your browser.
- 13.13You are required to keep Your anti-virus software up to date. Run a good anti-virus protection program, do periodic scans for spyware, avoid clicking on suspicious email links or websites.
- 13.14You are required to keep Your operating system, browser, and plugins up to date. These updates contain critical security patches that will protect Your computer or mobile device from recently discovered threats. Failing to install these updates means Your computer/mobile device is at risk.
- 13.15You must ensure that Your firewall is secure. Firewalls assist in blocking dangerous programs, viruses, or spyware before they infiltrate Your system.
- 13.16You must avoid logging in to Your account on public computers – e.g., libraries, internet cafes, etc.
- 13.17You must avoid transactions on public Wi-Fi. Unlike Your home computer, use of public hotspots involves security compromises. It is easy for other users to intercept Your data, so be careful about what information You send while connected.
- 13.18You are required to secure Your Wi-Fi network at home or workplace. It is always recommended to secure Your wireless network with a password. This prevents unauthorized individuals within proximity to hijack Your wireless network. Even if they are merely attempting to get free Wi-Fi access, You do not want to inadvertently share confidential information with other people who are using Your network without permission.
- 13.19You must verify key markers. We rely on universally accepted security protocol HTTPS (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol Secure) to protect users and keep their transactions secure. Therefore, Our website will show a green marker in the browser URL and link address will start with https instead of http or www. Always check the name of the sender in the email carefully before clicking on any attachment or link. Most malware attacks are sent through bogus email IDs.
- 13.20If You have reason to believe that third parties have become aware and/or knowledgeable of this information, the User should immediately contact customer support on support@vatan.game and a new password will be issued. Your account may have been compromised if:
- 13.20.1There have been changes to Your account details that You did not commit, such as Your e-mail, home address or phone number.
- 13.20.2There has been activity within Your account that was not done by You. This could include deposits or withdrawals, or bets placed.
- 13.20.3You have received an email notification of a password change without any action by You.
- 13.21Card deposits may, from time to time, be partially and/or fully declined subject to certain security systems managed in collaboration with a payment solution provider and/or a financial institution. Such security measures may decline legitimate User cards, which nevertheless, at a particular time, may not be possible to process. The Company’s personnel do not control the said systems, nor do they have any knowledge of the reasons for any deposits being declined.
- 13.22The Company may request documents to verify Your identity and/or authorisation to use a specific card and/or other facts provided by Yourself before expediting deposits and/or withdrawals. This may cause slight delays.
- 13.23The Company reserves the right, at its own discretion, to cancel, reverse or adjust any transactions and/or forfeit funds due to any: “Malfunction”, Error, Interruption, Force Majeure; Violation of the Terms and Conditions; collusion, game faults or abnormalities; unintended use of bonuses or promotions, including those caused or actioned by the User and/or by the Company system; promotions, rewards or incentives of a similar nature and/or criminal actions.
- 13.24The Company does not acknowledge or accept any liability whatsoever for damages to the User and/or a third party caused directly and/or indirectly due to any:
- 13.24.1Technical Failure, Malfunction, Interruption, Error, or Force Majeure;
- 13.24.2Violation of the Terms & Conditions;
- 13.24.3Collusion and/or criminal actions;
- 13.24.4Financial risk and loss; and/or
- 13.24.5Legal and financial actions and/or other remedies taken against the Participant and/or a third party.
- 13.25If, as a result of a Malfunction, Your Account is credited with winnings that You would not have received were it not for that Malfunction, we will have the right to void the relevant Transaction and withhold the relevant winnings. This applies even if the relevant gambling product could have produced the same or similar amount of winnings without the intervention of the Malfunction and it applies whether the Malfunction was apparent to You or to us or not. If You have withdrawn any such winnings, You agree that You will pay them back to us as and when we ask You to.
- 13.26In the event of an Error, the same applies as for Malfunctions, as set out above, or alternatively in some circumstances at our discretion we have the right to correct any Error made on a Transaction placed and re-settle at the correct price or terms which were available or should have been available at the time the Transaction was placed (as the Transaction will be deemed to have taken place on the terms which were usual for that Transaction at the relevant time the Transaction was made); or where it is not reasonably practicable to correct and re-settle, to declare the Transaction void and return Your stake to Your Account. Any funds credited to Your Account or withdrawn by You as a result of an Error shall, pending resolution, be deemed owed to us and we may set off any of the positive balance in Your Account against any such amounts owed by You to us. Our priority is to ensure that we deal with Interruptions in a way that is fair and does not systematically disadvantage our customers.
- 13.27In relation to betting: we are entitled to suspend betting markets, void bets, and return stakes to the User.
- 13.28In relation to gaming:
- 13.28.1Where an Interruption occurs after we receive notification of and have confirmed Your transaction and where You can have no further influence on the outcome of the event or Transaction, the results of the transaction will stand;
- 13.28.2Where an Interruption to a single-participant single stage event occurs before an outcome has been generated, we will return Your stake to Your Account;
- 13.28.3For games where there are multiple stages or decision points, we will take all reasonable steps to restore the game to its last known state prior to the Interruption to enable You to complete the game;
- 13.28.4For games with multiple participants (equal chance or otherwise), we will deal with these as seems fairest to us (acting reasonably) on a case-by-case basis; and
- 13.28.5Where any Malfunction, Interruption, Error is/are or becomes apparent or obvious to You or You suspect that Malfunction Interruption, Error may be occurring, You agree that You will cease Your use of the relevant Service(s) immediately and will report it to our Customer Support immediately via email support@vatan.game.
