WE HAVE READ THE HABBO FAN SITE POLICY IN FULL. WE AGREE TO IT IN FULL. WE RESTATE IT HERE IN FULL, IN OUR OWN WORDS, SHOUTED, SO THAT NOBODY CAN EVER CLAIM WE SKIMMED IT.

SECTION 1 — GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS, WHICH WE ACCEPT

1.1 WE UNDERSTAND THAT HABBO VIGOROUSLY PROTECTS THE HABBO IP FROM DAMAGING INFRINGEMENT. WE UNDERSTAND THAT OUR PERMISSION TO EXIST AS A FAN SITE IS REVOCABLE. WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE MUST BE TASTEFUL, AND THAT TASTE IS DEFINED SOLELY BY HABBO AND NOT BY US, WHICH IS PROBABLY FOR THE BEST. WE HAVE NO COMMERCIAL OBJECTIVE. WE MAKE NO MONEY. WE WILL NEVER MAKE MONEY. HABBO MAY TERMINATE US AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON, OR FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER, AND WE HAVE MADE PEACE WITH THAT.

1.2 WHERE WE USE HABBO IP ON SOCIAL MEDIA, WE STAY COMPLIANT WITH THIS POLICY AND WITH THE TERMS OF THOSE PLATFORMS. HABBO ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING WE DO THERE. NEITHER, FRANKLY, DO THOSE PLATFORMS.

1.3 PERMISSION IS NOT OWNERSHIP. NOTHING GRANTED TO US ALTERS OR LESSENS HABBO’S OWNERSHIP OF ALL RIGHTS, TITLE AND INTEREST IN AND TO THE HABBO IP. OUR RIGHT BEGINS AND ENDS AT THE PERMISSION DESCRIBED ABOVE.

1.4 WE DO NOT REPRESENT THAT THIS SITE, OR ANY WORD, PIXEL, GAME, BADGE, NUMBER OR JOKE ON IT, IS ENDORSED OR APPROVED BY HABBO. IT IS NOT. IT IS ENDORSED BY US, WHICH LEGALLY COUNTS FOR NOTHING.

1.5 WE DO NOT LINK TO ANY SITE THAT PROMOTES OR EXPLOITS CHEATS OR HACKS. WE DO NOT LINK TO RETROS. WE DO NOT LINK TO SCAM SITES. WE DO NOT LINK TO THINGS THAT LINK TO THOSE THINGS EITHER, WHERE WE CAN HELP IT.

1.6 WE DO NOT COPY OR UTILISE HABBO’S TRADE DRESS, MEANING THE OVERALL LOOK AND FEEL OF A PRODUCT OR PRODUCT LINE. NO PERSON VIEWING THIS SITE SHOULD EVER BELIEVE IT IS AN OFFICIAL HABBO PRODUCTION OR BE CONFUSED ABOUT WHETHER HABBO IS OFFICIALLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE MATERIAL. IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY CONFUSED: IT IS NOT OFFICIAL. WE MADE THIS. IN OUR SPARE TIME.

1.7 OUR DOMAIN DOES NOT MIMIC HABBO’S TRADEMARKS, PROPRIETARY DOMAINS, OR PRODUCT DOMAINS. WE UNDERSTAND THAT A CONFUSINGLY SIMILAR NAME FORCES ACTION, AND WE UNDERSTAND, AS WE WERE TOLD, THAT WE WANT TO AVOID THAT SORT OF ACTION.

1.8 WE DO NOT USE HABBO’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IN ANY MANNER HABBO CONSIDERS DEROGATORY TO HABBO. WE ARE RUDE ABOUT OURSELVES ONLY.

1.9 ALL CONTENT HERE COMPLIES WITH THE HABBO WAY AND CONTAINS NO INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT.

1.10 WE DO NOT SPAM ABOUT THIS FANSITE ON HABBO. WE MENTION IT WHEN ASKED. QUIETLY. ONCE.

1.11 WHERE WE ARE ENTITLED TO USE THE OFFICIAL HABBO FAN SITE LOGO, WE LINK IT TO A HABBO SITE, AS REQUIRED.

1.12 WHERE WE USE SOCIAL PLATFORMS TO PROMOTE EVENTS, THOSE ACCOUNTS ARE HABBO-RELATED AND SHARE NO PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT US OR ABOUT OTHER HABBOS. WE DO NOT ORGANISE FANSITE ACTIVITY THROUGH ACCOUNTS THAT REVEAL ANYONE’S REAL-LIFE IDENTITY. WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PRIVATE FORUMS AND UNOFFICIAL DISCORD SERVERS ARE PERMITTED BUT NOT RECOMMENDED, AND THAT IF RULE-BREAKING IS REPORTED THERE, OUR STATUS IS AT RISK.

1.13 OUR REPRESENTATIVES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR CONDUCT OUTSIDE HABBO, INCLUDING ON PERSONAL ACCOUNTS. TOXIC OR INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOUR THAT CAN BE LINKED TO ONE OF US AND VERIFIED MAY COST THIS SITE ITS OFFICIAL STATUS. WE HAVE TOLD EACH OTHER THIS. REPEATEDLY.

1.14 IF WE RUN A GIVEAWAY WITH GIFT CARDS, CERTIFICATES OR VOUCHER CODES, WE ARE FULLY RESPONSIBLE FOR DELIVERING THOSE PRIZES. NOT HABBO. US.

SECTION 2 — SPECIFIC CONDITIONS, WHICH WE ALSO ACCEPT

2.1 THE CURRENCIES ON THIS SITE — TOKENS, COINS, POINTS, KEYS, BADGES, AND ANYTHING ELSE WE INVENTED — ARE NOT MADE BY HABBO, ARE NOT REAL, AND ARE OBTAINED ONLY BY WINNING, PLAYING, COLLECTING AND ACHIEVING. WE NEVER ASK FOR REAL MONEY IN EXCHANGE FOR ANY OF IT.

2.2 THIS IS A WEBSITE ABOUT HABBO, CREATED AND MAINTAINED BY USERS, TO INFORM AND ENTERTAIN OTHER HABBO USERS. IT CAN NEVER, EVER HAVE A PROFIT-MAKING GOAL. IT DOES NOT ASK VISITORS FOR REAL MONEY AND OFFERS NO PAYMENT METHODS OF ANY KIND.

2.3 WE HAVE NO PROFIT MOTIVE. ANY BANNER THAT EVER APPEARS HERE WOULD NOT VIOLATE THE HABBO WAY AND WOULD NOT WRECK THE LOOK OF THE PLACE.

2.4 SAFETY IS THE PRIORITY. AT REGISTRATION WE TELL YOU, PLAINLY: DO NOT REUSE YOUR HABBO PASSWORD HERE. WHERE A SOCIAL ACCOUNT IS NEEDED, WE RECOMMEND A VIRTUAL ONE THAT CANNOT BE LINKED TO YOUR REAL IDENTITY.

2.5 WE AIM TO BE ONE HUNDRED PERCENT CERTAIN THIS IS A SAFE PLACE. WE HEED THE ADVICE AGAINST PRIVATE FORUMS AND ACCEPT THE CONSEQUENCES IF REPORTS ARRIVE.

2.6 ANYONE PERMANENTLY BANNED FROM HABBO CANNOT KEEP PARTICIPATING HERE. IF A TEAM MEMBER IS UNDER REVIEW BY HABBO STAFF, WE WILL STEP THEM BACK UNTIL THERE IS A RESOLUTION, ON REQUEST.

2.7 COLLABORATION HERE IS VOLUNTARY, AND ANYTHING SUBMITTED ONWARD HAS THE PRIOR APPROVAL OF WHOEVER MADE IT.

SECTION 3 — OFFICIAL STATUS, WHICH WE DO NOT CLAIM UNLESS GRANTED

3.1 ANYONE CAN CREATE A FAN SITE. CREATING ONE DOES NOT MAKE IT OFFICIAL. WE KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.

3.2 SULAKE OPENS OFFICIAL FAN SITE SUBSCRIPTIONS WHENEVER IT LIKES, ON NO FIXED SCHEDULE. WE WAIT.

3.3 SULAKE CHECKS EVERY ENTRY AND EVERY SITE, AND MAY CHOOSE BASED ON TASTE, EFFORT SHOWN AND CONTENT QUALITY. WE ACCEPT THAT TASTE IS THEIRS TO JUDGE.

3.4 SELECTED SITES GO ON THE OFFICIAL LIST, GET SNEAK PEEKS AND UPDATES, AND MAY USE THE FAN SITE LOGO, WITH PROMOTION ALWAYS SUBJECT TO STAFF APPROVAL. SITES MAY BE REMOVED AT HABBO’S SOLE DISCRETION, NORMALLY FOR GOING INACTIVE OR FOR SPAMMING. WE INTEND TO DO NEITHER.

3.5 ONLY OFFICIAL FAN SITES MAY BUILD MOBILE APPS ON HABBO IP, NON-COMMERCIAL, LIMITED TO THEIR OWN NEWS FEED AND HABBO UPDATE INFORMATION. WE HAVE BUILT NO SUCH APP.

SECTION 4 — THE DISCLAIMER, WHICH IS ON EVERY PAGE

4.1 THE REQUIRED DISCLAIMER APPEARS ON EVERY PAGE OF THIS SITE, DIRECTLY ABOVE THIS ARROW: THIS FAN SITE IS NOT AFFILIATED WITH, ENDORSED, SPONSORED, OR SPECIFICALLY APPROVED BY SULAKE OY OR ITS AFFILIATES. THIS FAN SITE MAY USE THE TRADEMARKS AND OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF HABBO, WHICH IS PERMITTED UNDER HABBO FAN SITE POLICY.

4.2 WHERE WE USE HABBO BRANDS, LOGOS OR TRADEMARKS — THE MARKS — WE USE THEM IN A MANNER THAT ENHANCES AND DOES NOT DAMAGE THEIR REPUTATION. WE DO NOT ALTER THE MARKS. NOT THE COLOURS, NOT THE SPACING, NOT AS A JOKE.

SECTION 5 — DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

SOME MUMBO-JUMBO FROM THEIR LAWYERS, WHICH WE PASS ON GLADLY: HABBO PROVIDES NO WARRANTY FOR ANY HABBO IP. HABBO EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, CLAIMS OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WITH RESPECT TO THE HABBO IP, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NOR SHOULD THERE BE DEEMED ANY WARRANTIES CREATED BY COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR TRADE USAGE.

SECTION 6 — LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

MORE MUMBO-JUMBO, ALSO ACCEPTED: HABBO IS NOT LIABLE FOR DAMAGES BASED ON OUR USE OF HABBO IP. WE EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL HABBO BE LIABLE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR STRICT LIABILITY, FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OUR CREATION, DISPLAY, OR USE OF ANY FAN ART OR FAN SITE OR OUR USE OF THE HABBO IP, EVEN IF THEY HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IF HABBO REVOKES OR TERMINATES OUR PERMISSION, WE WILL NOT SUE. NOT FOR DIRECT DAMAGES, NOR INDIRECT, NOR CONSEQUENTIAL, NOR INCIDENTAL, NOR SPECIAL, NOR LOST PROFITS WE NEVER HAD, NOR OUR EXPENSES. WE WILL TURN IT OFF AND SAY THANK YOU FOR THE YEARS.

SECTION 7 — ENFORCEMENT OF RIGHTS

HABBO CAREFULLY MONITORS THE USE OF HABBO IP. IF WE MAKE UNAUTHORISED USE OF IT, WE WILL BE DIRECTED TO STOP IMMEDIATELY, AND WE WILL STOP IMMEDIATELY. IF WE FAILED TO STOP, OR RESUMED LATER, LEGAL ACTION COULD FOLLOW, AND WE WOULD PAY HABBO’S ATTORNEY’S FEES AND OTHER COSTS OF LITIGATION. NOBODY LIKES THAT OUTCOME. WE WOULD LIKE IT LEAST.

SECTION 8 — NO RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US AND HABBO

OUR PARTICIPATION IS PURELY VOLUNTARY. WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY COMPENSATION OF ANY KIND FROM HABBO FOR THIS FAN SITE. NOTHING IN THIS POLICY CREATES ANY CONTRACTOR, PARTNERSHIP, JOINT VENTURE, FRANCHISE, EMPLOYMENT OR SIMILAR RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US AND HABBO. WE MAY STOP PROVIDING CONTENT AT ANY TIME WE DESIRE. WE DESIRE NOT TO.

SECTION 9 — MISCELLANEOUS LEGAL ISSUES

HABBO RESERVES ALL RIGHTS NOT EXPRESSLY GRANTED. HABBO MAY MODIFY THE POLICY AT ANY TIME BY POSTING THE REVISED VERSION, AND WE ARE DEEMED TO KNOW ABOUT IT, SO WE CHECK. THE POLICY IS GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF FINLAND, ANY PROCEEDINGS SIT IN THE COURTS OF HELSINKI, FINLAND, AND WE CONSENT TO THAT JURISDICTION. IF ANY PROVISION IS UNLAWFUL, VOID OR UNENFORCEABLE, IT IS SEVERED AND THE REST STANDS.

THAT IS THE WHOLE THING. WE AGREE TO ALL OF IT, WE KEEP THIS STATEMENT UP, AND WE WILL KEEP AGREEING TO IT FOR AS LONG AS THIS SITE IS ONLINE. EVERYTHING ELSE HERE IS A ROLE-PLAYING GAME. THE FICTION IS FICTION. THIS PART IS NOT.
