The User acknowledges that the Company has no knowledge of any User's health condition(s) and that User alone is responsible for any actions User takes that may have any health or other risks to User. User shall satisfy himself or herself, including consulting with a physician, before participating in any Company game. DietBet may from time to time provide advice and comments as to weight loss and other health and wellness issues on the Site or through e-mails and other media, including text, graphics, and images.

In no case shall the Company be responsible to you for losing money should you wager on any games offered on or through the Site. You acknowledge that betting is inherently risky.
    6. Not a game of chance. DietBet games are not games of chance. The intent of the program is to reward participants only for actions over which they have control or influence. The use of this program to reward participants for actions over which they have no control or influence is strictly prohibited.
    7. Organizers. DietBet games may be organized by an individual not associated with the Company. These games may be private or open to the public. Game organizers have the right to eject players of the games which they organize at their own discretion. Any disputes you have with game organizers should be resolved directly with the organizer. The Company will not mediate such disputes or take any responsibility for the actions or inactions of game organizers.
    8. Hosts. DietBet games may be hosted by individuals who may or may not be associated with the Company. DietBet is not responsible for any advice or tips such hosts may offer in their games. If hosts offer specific prizes in their games, they are responsible for delivering those prizes directly to players in the game. The Company is under no obligation to fulfill prizes or incentives offered by game hosts, regardless of whether or not they are associated with the Company.
    9. Disqualifications and Ejections. You may be disqualified for a variety of reasons by your game's organizer or host, including violating DietBet’s rules, Terms of Use, or for displaying bad sportsmanship in the judgment of the game’s organizer or host. If you are disqualified or ejected for any reason, you will not receive a refund. You further acknowledge that your game's organizer or host has the absolute and unappealable right to eject anyone in the game. If you are not comfortable giving the organizer or host this power, do not play.
    10. Excessive Weight Loss. You will be automatically disqualified from DietBet games for excessive weight loss. We do this to discourage players from losing what could be an unhealthy amount of weight, and to prevent players from winning by dint of rapid weight-loss procedures such as bariatric surgeries and liposuction. See individual game rules for disqualification thresholds. If you are disqualified for Excessive Weight Loss, you will not be entitled to a refund.
  12. DietBet Points.
    1. DietBet Point awards. Game winnings, as determined by DietBet game rules, shall be awarded to players in DietBet Points; such points are further referred to herein as “Points”. The amount of Points awarded shall be automatically deposited into players' accounts.
    2. Unexpired Points may be redeemed in whole or in part in cash at any time on the basis of an exchange rate set by the Company, currently USD $1.00 for each Point but which may change from time to time at the Company’s sole discretion, and may also be applied, optionally or exclusively, for participation in new games or for any other purposes permitted from time to time by the Company, including purchases of products and services offered by the Company and its partners. The exchange rate when applied to the purchases of products and services may change over time and become higher or lower than USD $1.00 per Point.

      In an effort to prevent fraud, the Company leverages security features from its payment processing partners, such as PayPal. As a condition of cash redemption of Points, players must use a PayPal or other Company approved paymentprocessor account in the same name as their DietBet account. Each DietBet player must have their own approved payment processor account, in their name, in order to receive a cash redemption of Points. The Company will try to work with payment processors, such as Paypal, who allow you to set up a personal account for free. Players must submit to the Company a legible copy of a valid government-issued identification in the name that matches the name on both their DietBet and approved payment processor accounts. The Company will solely utilize this identification information for verification purposes and will not store it any longer than is necessary for this purpose.

      If a player is in a region where no Company approved payment processing service is available, the Company will issue redemptions via bank wire or other alternative means, at its discretion, for a wiring handling fee (currently, USD $30). Players in countries not supported by an approved payment processor should submit to DietBet a legible copy of a valid government-issued identification in their name which matches the name on their DietBet account and on the bank account to which they wish to receive the bank wire.

      There is no minimum limit to redemptions; however, for redemptions under USD $50, the Company will add a handling fee (currently, USD $5) to offset the transactional costs associated with small payouts. We encourage (but do not require) players to accumulate their winnings and enjoy free redemptions once they exceed USD $50.

      The Company reserves the right to change or waive payout handling fees and processes for certain members and other users, at its sole discretion.
    3. Expiration of Points. Points in a player’s account shall remain in force for a period of one year from the date of the last activity that changes the number of Points in a player’s account.
    4. General. Points are the property of the Company and not of the players. They cannot be sold or transferred to any other person or entity, including to other players, and cannot be transferred by operation of law, such as by bankruptcy, inheritance, or divorce. Any such purported transfers shall be null and void. Players shall have no vested rights in Points. They shall have no value except as provided in these rules, and shall under no circumstances have any value after their expiration. The Company is not responsible for and will have no liability arising from products and services offered by companies participating in any Points program now or in the future developed, maintained or operated by the Company. DietBet may, in its sole discretion, change the Points program rules, awards and special offers, or terminate its Points program, at any time with or without notice to Points holders.
  13. Reservation of Rights. The Company reserves the right, solely in its discretion, to change any and all content, software, and other items used or contained in the Site atany time without notice; modify and/or discontinue the Site at any time without notice; and terminate your username, password and account, should you be in violation of these Terms of Use.

Membership Provisions

REGISTRATION. To be a member and fully use the DietBet Membership Service, please register by providing a password, valid email address and valid credit card information. Please keep this information up-to-date by promptly notifying DietBet in the event any of this information changes.

MEMBERSHIP PAYMENTS

Auto billing; Subscription Fees; Free Trial Terms. The DietBet Membership Service is a paid, auto-renewing subscription service. If you purchase a subscription by accepting our Free Trial offer, you are agreeing to automatic, recurring billing, and agree to pay the charges made to your account in connection therewith. Your Subscription, and periodic billing of your account (which is currently every month), will continue indefinitely until cancelled by you.

Your Membership begins when you have completed the Free Trial sign-up process (i.e., when we collect your personal and payment information). At the end of your 30-day Free Trial, you will begin to be billed automatically each month (about every 30 days) until you cancel. Once we begin to bill you, cancellations take effect as of the end of your current billing period; there are no partial month refunds or credits. If you cancel your Free Trial membership at any time in the first thirty days (i.e., during the Free Trial period), you will not be charged.

At certain times, we may offer special promotional offers ("Special Offers") that are billed at a discounted rate. These offers may have a different Free Trial period length, or no Free Trial period. In these cases, you will begin to be billed at the time payment information is collected, or, if a Free Trial is being offered, at the end of the special Free Trial period.

The relevant terms and conditions of an offer will be disclosed on the payment screen at the time you sign-up for a particular offer, prior to our acceptance of your payment.

In all instances, you will continue to be automatically billed monthly after your Free Trial ends (or immediately if there is no Free Trial period).

The pricing of our Services may vary periodically. We cannot guarantee that the price of your Subscription is the lowest available, or historically lowest or best, price. You will be charged in accordance with the billing terms you agreed to at the time you signed-up for an offer.

Players winning games will be awarded redeemable Reward Points in accordance with DietBet’s Terms of Use.

Quarterly and Annual Subscriptions

Periodically, we may offer Subscriptions for a longer term (for example, 3 months, 6 months or a year). These longer-term Subscriptions are charged in full upon purchase, and automatically renew for the same duration as the initial Subscription term you selected (for example, if you initially purchased a 3 month Subscription, your Subscription will automatically renew for three months; 6 month subscriptions will automatically renew for six months, and so on). The amount due for the next renewal term will be due and immediately payable in full and charged as of the first day of such renewal term. You can always cancel before your next renewal term by logging into your account, and following the cancellation instructions below ("How to Cancel"). Cancellations will generally take effect as of the end of your then current billing period (no partial month refunds or credits); cancellations made through the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store will be handled under and controlled by the respective policies of Apple and Google.

Charge Authorization

Signing-up for our Service and provide a payment method constitutes your express consent and authorization for the Company and its designated payment processor to automatically charge you for the Service periodically as set forth in the payment agreement for which you sign-up.

The Company shall not be responsible for any overdraft, chargeback or other fee from your bank or financial institution, arising from the Company’s periodic charge in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms of any additional offer you accepted for Services, and the payment method you provided to the Company for Services.

HOW TO CANCEL

If you do not wish for your account to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, email support@dietbet.com with your account email and notice of cancellation.

EVEN IF YOU DO NOT USE THE SUBSCRIPTION OR ACCESS THE SERVICES, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY ANY SUBSCRIPTION FEE FOR WHICH YOU SIGNED-UP, UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION OR IT IS OTHERWISE VALIDLY TERMINATED AS INSTRUCTED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

Changes to membership program

DietBet may change, modify, add, remove, suspend, cancel or discontinue any aspect of its membership program and subscriptions including the functionality, content, and/or availability of any features of its membership program and the Services at any time, in DietBet's sole discretion.

DietBet may increase its fees for all or any portion of the Services effective the first day of a billing renewal by giving you notice of the new fees at least thirty (30) days before you are billed. If you do not cancel your subscription, you will be deemed to have accepted the new fees.

DietBet's Code of Conduct

We encourage humor in the spirit of friendly competition but we also intend for DietBet to be a place where people respect the rights and feelings of others, including third party intellectual property rights. Therefore, we have established the following rules for using the Company’s Services, governing the posting of messages, photos, video and other content (collectively referred to as "Content") on the Site, which are fully incorporated into and integrated with this Agreement, and constitute a binding “Code of Conduct”.

WHEN YOU PLAY A DIETBET GAME, YOU ARE AGREEING TO ABIDE BY THE CODE OF CONDUCT AND THE OTHER RULES SET FORTH IN OUR TERMS OF USE.

DietBet's Anti-Cheating Provisions

Players shall apply customary principles of fairness and fair play in all games played through the Site and as part of the Services. To help assure compliance with these standards, the Company reserves the right to require additional audit of results. Some players may be required to submit additional proof of their final submission within 24 hours of being requested to do so. Instructions on the process will be sent to the player upon being notified of this requirement. Non-compliance by a player with these requirements may result in forfeiture of a player's winning proceeds and initial bet. Further, the Company may in its sole discretion decline to permit any individuals to participate in any games offered on the Site or as part of the Services. Decisions of the Company’s officials shall be final and conclusive with respect to all matters involving DietBet games offered on the Site and through the Services.
