Terms of Service

These Terms are entered into between you and SquareKick LLC, a Texas limited liability company. By accessing or using https://squarekick.org or the SquareKick mobile application, you agree to these Terms of Service.

1. Overview

SquareKick is a skill-based NFL and NBA matchup sports squares platform where users participate in live matchup-based contest rooms tied to real-world sporting events.

The platform is designed around participant judgment, sports knowledge, statistical analysis, matchup evaluation, and square-selection decisions. In Skill Card rooms, SquareKick uses a skill-predominant scoring model where Skill Card performance is the primary determinant and square/digit position is a limited secondary scoring component under the locked room weights. It does not operate as a sportsbook, house-banked casino, slot machine, lottery, or house-banked product.

No representation is made that the platform, any contest, any contest room, any paid entry, any wallet feature, or any payout feature is lawful in every jurisdiction. Availability of skill-based contest language does not override federal, state, local, payment-service, or app store requirements.

SquareKick does not guarantee winner awards. Participation is subject to the posted rules, room setup, Skill Card scoring rules when available, room cutoff/shuffle timing, platform controls, eligibility restrictions, and applicable law in effect at the time of entry.

Paid room entry may use physical-location verification before payment confirmation. The platform may use secure location-verification signals, user declaration, or a trusted location-verification service when configured.

2. Eligibility

• You must be at least 18 years old
• You must provide truthful registration information and keep your account details current
• You must comply with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction and are responsible for determining whether your use of the platform is permitted where you are located
• Certain contests, contest rooms, square selections, payout features, promotional contests, fantasy-style contests, sweepstakes-like features, or similar functionality may be restricted or unavailable in certain states, territories, or localities
• You may not enter, fund, or participate in a room if you are located in a restricted jurisdiction or if your participation is prohibited by applicable federal, state, local, territorial, tribal, payment-service, app-store, or platform compliance rules
• SquareKick may request, verify, or use age, account, location, device, IP address, payment, payout, tax, or identity-related information to confirm eligibility and restricted-jurisdiction compliance before allowing entry, payment, withdrawal, payout, award credit, or continued account access
• For paid room entry, eligibility depends on the user being physically located in an allowed state at the time checkout starts. Residency, tax address, billing address, profile state, and payout state do not determine paid-entry eligibility
• If the Current Physical Location State declaration, location-verification decision, or other location-control result does not satisfy the allowed-state rules, SquareKick may block checkout before payment confirmation

3. Account Registration, Security, and Review

• Only one account per user is permitted unless expressly authorized by the platform
• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for activity occurring through your account
• Accounts may be suspended, restricted, reviewed, or closed for fraud, abuse, policy violations, payment problems, chargebacks, eligibility concerns, or platform security reasons
• SquareKick may suspend, terminate, restrict, or close accounts, freeze or hold balances, cancel entries, reverse transactions, or withhold payouts while conducting fraud, abuse, chargeback, identity, AML-related, compliance, payment-service, or dispute review

4. Contest Participation and Contest Rules

SquareKick may publish or update Official Contest Rules, State Restricted Jurisdiction Lists, AML/Fraud Policies, Chargeback Policies, identity-verification requirements, or other compliance materials. Those materials are incorporated into these Terms to the extent applicable to your use of the platform.

• Users may enter available rooms by paying the displayed entry amount and following the room rules in effect for that room
• The platform may offer full-square entries, half-square entries, manual square selection, auto-assignment, reservations, and other room-specific participation options
• Reservations and selected squares are temporary until checkout successfully completes and the entry is finalized; Skill Card submissions, scoring rules, tiebreakers, and reserve-square handling are governed by the posted room rules
• Participants are encouraged to use NFL/NBA research, team and player statistics, scoring tendencies, matchup analysis, injury and roster information, pace-of-play considerations, and other sports knowledge when deciding whether and how to participate
• Outcomes are determined by the room rules, Official Contest Rules, published platform results, applicable matchup scoring data, and any state or local eligibility restrictions then in effect
• Participation does not guarantee winner awards; Skill Card scoring rewards submitted predictions and may still result in no prize for an entry
• Skill Card-1 opens after a player joins a Skill Card room and locks at the room cutoff/shuffle time, 30 minutes before kickoff/tipoff. Skill Card-2 opens after shuffle when row and column digits are revealed and locks before kickoff/tipoff, 2 minutes before kickoff/tipoff
• In Skill Card rooms, straight and reverse prize slots are ranked by the room’s locked Combined Score. The commonly used model is normalized Skill Card score times 80% plus square/digit score times 20%, and the locked room configuration controls the applicable values for that room. SquareKick uses a skill-predominant scoring model where Skill Card performance is the primary determinant and square/digit position is a limited secondary scoring component
• If a room uses posted straight/reverse digit rules, the posted room rules explain how straight/reverse score digits are applied for that room
• Rooms may use a 100 Squares Guaranteed payout model or a Collected Funds Only payout model. The room notice and award breakdown identify which model applies before entry
• Under the 100 Squares Guaranteed model, platform reserve entries may cover unfilled squares but are coverage-only entries and are never eligible to win. If an exact two-digit target is platform reserve, eligible one-digit participant fallback positions may share the prize; if no eligible fallback exists, the slot is marked No eligible winner and moves to the No-Winner Return Pool after the room is final
• SquareKick reserves the right to modify, suspend, discontinue, or remove features, contests, rooms, wallets, payout methods, or services at any time, subject to applicable law and these Terms

5. Shuffle, Lock, Room Operation, and Score Corrections

• Board digits are assigned through the platform shuffle process and become binding for that room once the board is finalized
• Rooms, matchups, and live views may change state over time, including upcoming, locked, live, completed, canceled, or similar operational states
• When a filled room locks, the platform may automatically create the next room with registration closed. That room stays closed unless an SquareKick support opens registration. If it is not opened before the configured deadline, 60 minutes before kickoff/tipoff under the configured timing, the unopened follow-on room may be deleted automatically
• The platform may restrict purchases, edits, refunds, or ownership changes after room lock, shuffle, kickoff, or other configured cutoff times
• Official scoring, statistical feeds, and matchup data may be corrected or updated after initial publication by leagues, data services, or the platform
• SquareKick may correct, recalculate, delay, or update results, standings, wallet credits, winner awards, payouts, or related records when official data, scoring corrections, service updates, service issues, or platform errors require adjustment

6. Payments, Wallet, Fees, Payouts, and Taxes

• Users may deposit funds, pay for entries, receive winner awards, and request withdrawals through the platform features that are then available
• Room pricing, award allocations, and related calculations are governed by the active room financial settings
• The 100 Squares Guaranteed model uses the full room guarantee under platform reserve rules, while the Collected Funds Only model calculates winner awards only from paid participant entries collected for that room
• No-Winner Return Pool amounts, if any, are returned after the room is final to funded room contributors based on paid contribution amount, minus any unrecoverable processing, transfer, or payout fees where applicable
• Payment processing, payment authentication, and payout onboarding may be handled through third-party services such as Stripe
• If a duplicate finalization request is received while payment finalization is already running, the platform may wait for or reuse the original finalization result so that a successful payment maps to one confirmed entry set rather than duplicate entries
• Winner awards, withdrawals, payout setup, and transaction records remain subject to platform review, service requirements, fraud checks, AML-related review, identity verification, tax reporting requirements, chargeback review, and operational controls
• SquareKick is configured for U.S. skill-based contest award reporting using Form 1099-MISC only; W-2G withholding logic is not part of the platform tax setup
• SquareKick may request secure taxpayer information through Stripe Connect or another professional tax service, may track gross winner awards by calendar year, may maintain internal 1099-MISC review records, and may issue or support issuance of Form 1099-MISC when legally required
• SquareKick may delay or hold winner payouts, wallet award credits, withdrawals, or related payout activity when required payout or tax-reporting information is missing, incomplete, expired, unverifiable, or otherwise requires review
• Users are responsible for providing accurate payout and tax information, reporting award income on their own tax returns, and paying any federal, state, local, or other taxes owed on winner awards, withdrawals, awards, wallet credits, promotional amounts, or other amounts received through or in connection with SquareKick
• Unclaimed balances, dormant wallet balances, abandoned accounts, or other unresolved funds may be handled in accordance with applicable unclaimed property, escheatment, account-closure, or similar laws

7. Refunds, Cancellations, and Chargebacks

• Entry fees are generally non-refundable once a room or matchup passes the applicable refund or lock cutoff
• Refunds, reversals, or cancellations may occur in limited circumstances, including room cancellation, voided contest participation, payment problems, reservation expiration, unavailable inventory, payment or service issues, fraud review, or other platform-determined operational reasons
• Where a transaction cannot be finalized, the platform may cancel the attempted entry and return the user to an eligible pre-payment or wallet state consistent with the operating logic of the platform
• Required state/location eligibility decisions are designed to occur before Stripe payment confirmation so that failed location checks prevent checkout from completing rather than intentionally charging first and refunding later
• Chargebacks, payment disputes, failed payments, suspected unauthorized transactions, bonus abuse, or suspicious payment activity may result in account review, balance holds, payout delays, transaction reversals, or account termination where permitted by law

8. Notifications and Communications

• By using the platform, you agree that we may send service-related messages about your account, contest participation, results, payouts, withdrawals, compliance review, disputes, and policy updates
• Mobile app users may also receive push or in-app notifications when available on their device or account

9. Prohibited Conduct

Users may not:

Violations may result in account suspension, account termination, balance holds, forfeiture where permitted by law, cancellation of entries, reversal of transactions, payout withholding, service reporting, or other action permitted by law and platform policy.

• Use multiple accounts or false information
• Attempt to manipulate square ownership, payment flow, scoring, results, notifications, withdrawals, or payouts
• Interfere with the platform, reverse engineer abusive workflows, scrape protected content, exploit service issues, or engage in fraudulent, deceptive, collusive, or abusive behavior
• Attempt to bypass state, location, identity, KYC, payment-service, restricted-jurisdiction, or compliance controls

10. Intellectual Property

All platform content, software, code, designs, graphics, interfaces, branding, logos, trademarks, service marks, trade names, text, documentation, technology, and related materials are owned by SquareKick or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, reverse engineer, sell, lease, frame, scrape, reproduce, create derivative works from, or commercially exploit any part of the platform except as expressly permitted by SquareKick in writing.

11. Third-Party Services and Platform Availability

The platform may rely on third-party services for payment processing, payout onboarding, identity or payment verification, secure infrastructure, analytics, messaging, mobile app services, score updates, live countdown/score updates, and support features.

SquareKick is not responsible for third-party outages, service restrictions, delayed data, account-link expiration, app store rules, payment-service holds, or other third-party conditions that affect platform availability, payments, withdrawals, or payouts.

12. Limitation of Liability

SquareKick provides the platform on an "as is" and "as available" basis and makes no guarantee of uninterrupted service, continuous availability, lawful availability in every jurisdiction, eligibility for every user, payout timing, or any particular result or winner-award outcome.

SquareKick shall not be liable for outages, delays, errors, cancellations, service interruptions, or unavailable features caused by acts of God, internet failures, cyberattacks, government actions, sporting event cancellations, labor disruptions, service interruptions, payment-service interruptions, data-feed disruptions, app store restrictions, or other events beyond SquareKick’s reasonable control.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, SquareKick is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, or special damages arising out of use of the platform, third-party services, payment or payout delays, contest participation, event data delays, score corrections, or interruptions.

13. Compliance and Jurisdiction

SquareKick operates only where permitted and as a lawful skill-based sports contest, fantasy-style entertainment, or matchup-analysis platform, subject to applicable federal, state, and local requirements.

Users are responsible for compliance with local laws, taxes, reporting obligations, eligibility restrictions, and other legal requirements applicable to their participation, wallet activity, winner awards, or withdrawals.

Formation or operation through a Texas limited liability company does not by itself determine whether a contest is lawful in any jurisdiction. We may restrict access, contest participation, deposits, entries, withdrawals, payouts, promotions, or transactions where required for legal, operational, payment-service, app store, or risk reasons.

SquareKick may maintain restricted jurisdiction controls or compliance review workflows, and availability of a feature in the user interface does not guarantee that a user is eligible to use that feature in every location.

14. Texas Participation, Privacy, Consumer Protection, and Geofencing Terms

Texas residents and users located in Texas remain subject to all eligibility, age, location, payment, payout, tax, consumer-protection, privacy, contest, prize, and responsible-play requirements that apply to their participation. SquareKick does not represent that every room, contest structure, prize feature, wallet feature, withdrawal feature, promotional feature, or real-money participation feature is available or lawful for every Texas user or in every Texas location.

Skill-contest affirmation and player warranty. SquareKick is a lawful peer-to-peer skill-based sports squares, fantasy-style entertainment, or matchup-analysis contest platform where permitted. Texas users acknowledge that SquareKick is not a sportsbook, casino, slot machine, lottery, banking game, house-banked gambling product, bookmaking service, or unauthorized wagering platform. By registering, funding an entry, or entering a paid room from Texas, the user represents and warrants that the user is participating only where lawful and understands that contest results are be determined by human skill metrics, including matchup analysis, sports knowledge, Skill Card predictions, tiebreakers, square-selection strategy, timing decisions, and other posted skill-based rules rather than a prohibited game of chance under Texas Penal Code § 47.01 et seq. or similar laws.

Texas gambling-law acknowledgment. SquareKick does not authorize any user to use the platform for unlawful gambling, unauthorized online wagering, side bets, bookmaking, pooled betting outside posted room rules, disguised sports betting, illegal internet gambling, or any activity prohibited by Texas law. Users may not treat entries as wagers on sports outcomes or use SquareKick to facilitate third-party betting. Any attempt to use the platform for unauthorized gambling, disguised betting, collusion, account sharing, score manipulation, payment fraud, location spoofing, or other unlawful conduct is a material breach of these Terms and may result in account restriction, cancellation of entries, voiding of awards, forfeiture where permitted by law, and reporting to appropriate parties.

Fee Transparency, Platform Rake, and Prize Payout Math. To avoid ambiguity under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices-Consumer Protection Act, Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 17.41 et seq., SquareKick discloses that entry fees are collected for the applicable contest-room entry, that the platform may retain the disclosed service or platform fee shown in the app, room details, rules, or settings-driven room configuration, and that the remaining room pool is distributed according to the room’s locked straight/reverse award percentages, Skill Card settings when available, square/digit scoring rules, tiebreakers, payout eligibility requirements, refunds, taxes, chargebacks, and compliance holds described in these Terms, the Contest Rules, the FAQ, the User Guide, and the room details. Hidden or undisclosed platform fees are not part of SquareKick’s published room rules, and material fee or payout rules should be shown before or during entry purchase.

Winner determination and prize payout math are described in the room rules. Under Skill Card scoring, straight and reverse prize slots are ranked by the room’s locked Combined Score, using normalized Skill Card score and square/digit score at the configured weights. When a room uses posted straight/reverse digit rules, that posted process explains how straight/reverse score digits are applied. Payouts may be delayed, adjusted, held, or withheld only as allowed by the Terms, rules, payment-provider requirements, tax obligations, dispute review, fraud prevention, or applicable law.

Age Verification and Ledger Liquidation. Texas residents and users located in Texas must be at least 18 years old to register, open an account, deposit money, fund entries, enter paid game rooms, receive winner awards, request withdrawals, or use payout features. By registering or participating, the user represents that the user is at least 18 and has legal capacity to enter these Terms. SquareKick may require age, identity, payment, payout, tax, device, account, or location verification before allowing participation or releasing funds. If SquareKick determines that an account was created, operated, funded, or used by a minor or by a person misrepresenting age or identity, SquareKick may immediately suspend or terminate the account, cancel entries, void awards, preserve or void game histories as compliance records, deactivate the profile, and liquidate or forfeit deposited funds, virtual ledger balances, prizes, or other benefits to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Jurisdictional Geofencing Consent and Prohibitions. Where Texas participation is offered, SquareKick may require continuous, event-time, or transaction-time location verification to access paid game rooms. Verification may include GPS permission signals, IP address, IP triangulation, device signals, browser location permission, network signals, payment or payout location indicators, and fraud-prevention checks. Users consent to these checks as a condition of accessing paid rooms and payout features. If location cannot be verified, if the user appears to be outside a permitted jurisdiction, or if applicable state, federal, local, venue, tribal, payment-service, app-store, or other restrictions prohibit participation, SquareKick may block room entry, hold or delay payouts, cancel entries, or restrict account activity.

Strict Anti-VPN and Anti-Spoofing Protections. Using a VPN, proxy, emulator, remote desktop, GPS spoofing tool, false device signal, location-masking software, account sharing, false identity, or other method to mask, falsify, or manipulate Texas physical presence or eligibility is a material breach of these Terms. SquareKick may immediately lock, suspend, or terminate the account, ban the user from game rooms, cancel entries, void awards, hold balances, delay payouts, and forfeit deposits, prize balances, virtual balances, or other benefits where permitted by law.

Texas consumer-protection and privacy non-waiver. SquareKick works to avoid deceptive, misleading, unfair, ambiguous, hidden, or unconscionable practices by publishing clear rules, fee disclosures, privacy disclosures, and support paths. Texas privacy rights, sensitive-data consent requirements, geolocation disclosures, profiling and targeted-advertising opt-outs, consumer request rights, appeal rights, breach-notification procedures, fee/rake disclosures, prize rules, and consumer protections are described in these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the Contest Rules, the FAQ, and the User Guide. Nothing in these Terms is waive non-waivable Texas consumer-protection, privacy, security, contest, age, geolocation, or statutory rights where applicable.

15. California Participation, Privacy, Consumer Protection, and Geofencing Terms

California residents and users located in California remain subject to all eligibility, age, location, payment, payout, tax, consumer-protection, privacy, contest, and prize-promotion requirements that apply to their participation. SquareKick does not represent that every contest, room, prize structure, wallet feature, withdrawal feature, or promotional feature is available or lawful for every California user or in every California locality.

Skill-contest affirmation and player warranty. SquareKick is a lawful peer-to-peer skill-based sports squares, fantasy-style entertainment, or matchup-analysis contest platform where permitted. California users acknowledge that SquareKick is not a sportsbook, casino, slot machine, banking game, lottery, or house-banked gambling product. Users represent and warrant that they participate only where legally permitted and understand that contest results are be determined by human skill metrics, including matchup analysis, sports knowledge, Skill Card predictions, tiebreakers, square-selection strategy, timing decisions, and other posted skill-based rules rather than a prohibited game of chance under California Penal Code Section 330 et seq. or similar laws.

Fee transparency, platform rake, and prize payout math. Entry fees, room prices, administrative/platform fees, payout percentages, straight/reverse allocations, Skill Card weights, square/digit weights, tiebreaker rules, and winner-calculation methods are disclosed in the applicable room screens, rules pages, settings-driven room configuration, and contest rules. Unless a room-specific rule states otherwise, SquareKick applies the room’s locked configuration to determine the prize pool, the platform service fee, award distribution, and winner ranking. Hidden fees, undisclosed rake changes, or post-entry prize-rule changes are not part of SquareKick’s published room rules. If a displayed rule, fee, or payout conflicts with a locked room configuration, SquareKick may hold, review, correct, or void the affected room activity as permitted by law and the posted rules.

Users must be at least 18 years old to register, fund entries, participate in paid skill-based rooms, receive winner awards, request withdrawals, or use payout features. SquareKick may verify age and physical location and may restrict, block, delay, void, or review participation if a user is located in a restricted jurisdiction or if eligibility cannot be verified. If a California minor circumvents age-gate or validation systems, the account may be permanently deactivated, entries and game histories may be voided or preserved only as compliance records, and deposited funds, wallet credits, prize balances, or other benefits may be forfeited or liquidated to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Jurisdictional geofencing consent and prohibitions. Access to paid rooms may require continuous or event-time GPS, IP, device, browser-location, payment, payout, network, and fraud-prevention verification to confirm that the user is physically located in a permitted jurisdiction. Using a VPN, proxy, emulator, remote desktop, GPS-spoofing tool, location-masking software, account sharing, false identity, or similar method to misrepresent a California or other physical location is a material breach and may result in immediate account lock, suspension, termination, cancellation of entries, voiding of awards, payout delay, and forfeiture of virtual balances where permitted by law.

Objective account restrictions and non-discrimination. SquareKick may suspend, restrict, terminate, or review accounts for objective platform-safety and rule-enforcement reasons, including cheating, collusion, bot or macro use, unauthorized automation, fraud, payment disputes, chargebacks, identity or age misrepresentation, location spoofing, restricted-jurisdiction activity, harassment, security threats, abuse of promotions, violation of contest rules, or violation of these Terms. SquareKick does not intend to suspend or terminate accounts on the basis of protected characteristics under the California Unruh Civil Rights Act or other applicable civil-rights laws.

SquareKick may offer skill-based contest rooms, winner awards, promotional credits, wallet credits, or other prize-related features only where permitted and subject to posted rules, room-specific terms, tax-reporting requirements, payment-service requirements, app-store restrictions, and applicable contest, sweepstakes, and prize-promotion laws. Any no-purchase, promotional, sweepstakes-like, or virtual-currency feature, if offered, is governed by its own posted rules and may be restricted or unavailable by jurisdiction.

California privacy rights and request procedures are described in the Privacy Policy, including the California Privacy Notice and Notice at Collection. Use of the platform may involve collection and use of age, location, device, account, payment, payout, tax, and contest information for eligibility verification, fraud prevention, platform security, support, tax reporting, and compliance review.

Nothing in these Terms limits non-waivable rights that California law or other applicable state law gives to a user, including rights under the California Unfair Competition Law, Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 17200 et seq., privacy laws, consumer-protection laws, or minor-protection laws. If any arbitration, class waiver, governing-law, venue, limitation, or other provision is unenforceable for a California user under applicable law, that provision applies only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

16. Illinois Participation, Consumer Protection, Geofencing, and Responsible Play Terms

Illinois residents and users located in Illinois remain subject to all eligibility, age, location, payment, payout, tax, consumer-protection, privacy, contest, prize, and responsible-play requirements that apply to their participation. SquareKick does not represent that every room, contest structure, prize feature, wallet feature, withdrawal feature, or promotional feature is available or lawful for every Illinois user or in every Illinois locality.

Skill-contest warranty and Illinois gambling-law acknowledgment. SquareKick is designed as a skill-based sports squares, fantasy-style entertainment, and matchup-analysis platform and is not an unauthorized game of chance under Illinois Criminal Code 720 ILCS 5/28-1 or related laws.

If a contest, feature, or operating model is not permitted in Illinois or any other jurisdiction, SquareKick may restrict, block, void, delay, or review access, entries, payments, payouts, withdrawals, or awards.

SquareKick is not a sportsbook, casino, slot machine, lottery, or house-banked gambling product and does not offer regulated gambling services. References to prizes, awards, wallet credits, withdrawals, or contest rooms do not guarantee availability in Illinois or any other jurisdiction.

Illinois Consumer Fraud Act fee transparency. To avoid ambiguity under the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, 815 ILCS 505/1 et seq. and 815 ILCS 505/2, SquareKick discloses that entry fees are used to fund the applicable contest-room pool, less the platform service fee disclosed in the app, rules, or room configuration. The remaining pool is distributed according to the room's locked straight/reverse award percentages, Skill Card settings when available, square/digit scoring rules, tiebreakers, payout eligibility requirements, refunds, taxes, chargebacks, and compliance holds described in these Terms, the Contest Rules, and the room details. Hidden or undisclosed platform fees are not part of SquareKick’s published room rules, and material fee or payout rules should be shown before or during entry purchase.

Winner determination and prize payout math are described in the room rules. Under Skill Card scoring, straight and reverse prize slots are ranked by the room's locked Combined Score, using normalized Skill Card score and square/digit score at the configured weights. When a room uses posted straight/reverse digit rules, that posted process explains how straight/reverse score digits are applied. Payouts may be delayed, adjusted, or withheld only as allowed by the Terms, rules, payment-provider requirements, tax obligations, dispute review, fraud prevention, or applicable law.

Users located in Illinois must agree to age, identity, and physical-location verification where required by SquareKick, payment or payout providers, app-store rules, or applicable law. Real-time or event-time geolocation, IP address, device, GPS or browser location permission signals, network, payment, payout, and fraud-prevention signals may be used to verify eligibility and restricted-jurisdiction compliance before or during contest-room participation.

Jurisdictional geofencing consent and prohibitions. Any attempt to spoof, mask, misrepresent, or bypass location, including through a VPN, proxy, emulator, remote desktop, GPS spoofing, account sharing, false identity, or similar method, is prohibited and may result in immediate account lock, suspension, or termination, cancellation of entries, voiding of awards, balance holds, payout delays, forfeiture where permitted by law, and permanent restriction from contest rooms.

Age representation and ledger liquidation. Users must be at least 18 years old to create an account, deposit money, fund entries, join paid skill-based rooms, receive winner awards, request withdrawals, or use payout features. SquareKick may require additional age, identity, payment, payout, or tax verification before allowing participation or releasing funds, and may restrict access if eligibility cannot be verified. Any account found to be created, operated, or funded by a minor may be treated as void from inception, permanently deactivated, and entries, awards, balances, or prizes may be voided, held, liquidated, or forfeited where permitted by law.

Users may request voluntary self-exclusion, account closure, temporary cooling-off, or reduced access to contest-room participation by contacting SquareKick through the available support channels. Users may also request daily, weekly, or monthly deposit, funding, entry, or play limits where SquareKick can reasonably apply such limits through account review or support controls. SquareKick may also restrict access when responsible-play, fraud-prevention, legal, payment-service, or compliance concerns are identified.

Illinois privacy rights, BIPA disclosures, biometric retention schedules, separate biometric consent requirements, GIPA genetic-information disclosures, geolocation disclosures, automated-review disclosures, data minimization, and opt-out procedures are described in the Privacy Policy, including the Illinois Privacy Notice.

17. District of Columbia Participation, Consumer Protection, and Geofencing Terms

District of Columbia residents and users located in the District of Columbia remain subject to all eligibility, age, geofencing, payment, payout, tax, consumer-protection, privacy, contest, prize, and responsible-play requirements that apply to their participation, including the D.C. Consumer Protection Procedures Act (CPPA), D.C. Code § 28-3901 et seq., and D.C. gaming and contest restrictions where applicable. SquareKick does not represent that every room, contest structure, prize feature, wallet feature, withdrawal feature, promotional feature, or real-money participation feature is available or lawful for every D.C. user or in every D.C. location.

Age representation and minor-account consequences. Users located in the District of Columbia must be at least 18 years old to register, open an account, fund entries, enter paid game rooms, receive winner awards, request withdrawals, or use payout features. By registering or participating, the user represents that the user is at least 18 and has legal capacity to enter these Terms. SquareKick may require age, identity, payment, payout, tax, device, account, or location verification before allowing participation or releasing funds. If SquareKick determines that an account was created, operated, funded, or used by a minor or by a person misrepresenting age or identity, SquareKick may immediately suspend or terminate the account, cancel entries, void awards, preserve or void game histories as compliance records, and liquidate or forfeit virtual ledger balances, prizes, or other benefits to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

Geographic and jurisdictional restrictions. Where D.C. participation is offered, SquareKick may use real-time or event-time geofencing, GPS permission signals, IP triangulation, IP address, network signals, device data, payment or payout location indicators, and fraud-prevention checks to confirm that a player is physically located within permitted zones of the District of Columbia. Access to paid game rooms is prohibited when the user is outside permitted D.C. boundaries, in a restricted jurisdiction, in a neighboring state, in a federal enclave, on a military installation, or in another location where D.C. municipal rules do not apply, participation is restricted, or eligibility cannot be verified.

Any attempt to mask, spoof, manipulate, or bypass location, including through a VPN, proxy, emulator, remote desktop, GPS spoofing, account sharing, false device signals, false identity, or similar method, is a material breach of these Terms. SquareKick may immediately lock, suspend, or terminate the account, cancel entries, void awards, hold balances, delay payouts, restrict room access, permanently ban the user, and forfeit or liquidate virtual ledger balances, prize balances, wallet credits, or other benefits where permitted by law.

Fee Schedule and Rake Structure. To support D.C. CPPA transparency expectations, SquareKick aims to present game-room rules, entry fees, administrative/platform fees, prize pools, straight and reverse award structures, Skill Card scoring, square/digit scoring, tiebreakers, payout timing, refund handling, and withdrawal limits in a clear, conspicuous, and unambiguous manner. The current financial model uses a 13% administrative/platform fee and 87% player prize allocation unless a specific room or future posted rule displays a different lawful configuration. Users should review the room details, Contest Rules, FAQ, User Guide, Terms, and Privacy Policy before entering a paid room. If any displayed fee, award, room rule, rake/platform fee, or prize calculation appears unclear, inconsistent, or incorrect, the user should contact SquareKick support before joining or funding the room.

Skill-Contest Affirmation and Player Warranty. SquareKick is a skill-based, peer-to-peer contest platform and is not a sportsbook, casino, lottery, slot machine, unauthorized betting operation, or house-banked game of chance, including for purposes of D.C. Official Code § 22-1704 and § 22-1708 where applicable. Users acknowledge and agree that Skill Card rooms are constitute peer-to-peer contests of human skill using posted prediction inputs, sports-knowledge selections, strategy, confidence choices, tiebreakers, and room-locked Combined Score rules, including normalized Skill Card score and square/digit score under the displayed or configured weights, and that the element of chance is be legally negligible. When a room uses posted straight/reverse digit rules, the posted straight/reverse digit process applies. By participating, users warrant that they understand the posted rules and are not relying on any undisclosed, misleading, or guaranteed prize outcome.

Winner determination and prize calculations. Skill Card rooms rank straight and reverse prize slots by the room’s locked Combined Score formula and tiebreaker order. Square/digit score is one weighted component, not necessarily a mandatory qualification gate, unless the posted room rules state otherwise. Skill Card raw points are normalized against the configured maximum for the scoring period so point-value changes do not alter the locked Skill Card weight. Platform fees, prize calculations, payout holds, tax-review requirements, and withdrawal availability are subject to the posted room rules, account status, payment-service requirements, tax-support review, compliance review, and applicable law.

SquareKick aims to present entry fees, administrative/platform fees, prize pools, straight and reverse award structures, Skill Card scoring, square/digit scoring, tiebreakers, payout timing, refund handling, and withdrawal limits in a clear and conspicuous manner. The current financial model uses a 13% administrative/platform fee and 87% player prize allocation unless a specific room or future posted rule displays a different lawful configuration. Users should review the room details, Contest Rules, FAQ, User Guide, Terms, and Privacy Policy before entering a paid room.

SquareKick uses a skill-predominant Combined Score design where Skill Card performance is the primary determinant and square/digit position is a limited secondary scoring component under the displayed or configured room weights. Skill Card raw points are normalized against the configured maximum for the scoring period so point-value changes do not alter the locked Skill Card weight. When a room uses posted straight/reverse digit rules, the posted straight/reverse digit process applies. Platform fees, prize calculations, payout holds, tax-review requirements, withdrawal availability, and release of funds remain subject to posted room rules, account status, payment-service requirements, tax-support review, compliance review, and applicable law.

Verification may include GPS permission signals, IP address, IP triangulation, device signals, browser location permission, network signals, payment or payout location indicators, and fraud-prevention checks. Users consent to these checks as a condition of accessing paid rooms and payout features. If location cannot be verified, if the user appears to be outside a permitted jurisdiction, or if applicable state, federal, local, venue, or other restrictions prohibit participation, SquareKick may block room entry, hold or delay payouts, cancel entries, or restrict account activity.
