Terms of Service

Effective date: June 29, 2026

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a binding agreement between you and GBFans LLC ("GBFans.com," "GBFans," "Ghostbusters Fans," "we," "us," or "our"), the company that operates GBFans.com and related websites, forums, shops, wiki pages, image galleries, blogs, and other online features, content, and services that link to these Terms (together, the "Services").

By accessing or using the Services, creating an account, posting content, making a purchase, or otherwise interacting with GBFans.com, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

These Terms govern your general use of the Services. Some parts of the Services are subject to additional policies, which are incorporated into these Terms by reference:

  • Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect information about you.
  • Membership or subscription terms. If you sign up for a paid membership, subscription, recurring donation, premium feature, or other recurring charge, the specific terms presented at checkout or signup also apply.
  • Community rules or guidelines. We may publish additional rules for forums, galleries, wiki pages, contests, events, or other community areas.

If additional terms conflict with these Terms, the additional terms control only for the specific feature, purchase, membership, or activity they cover. Terms that apply to purchases from our shop are set out in these Terms at Section 10.

2. Who May Use the Services

You must be at least 13 years old to access or use the Services or create an account. The Services are not directed to children under 13, and you may not use the Services if you are under 13.

To make a purchase, pay for a membership, or enter into any paid transaction through the Services, you must be at least 18 years old or the age of majority where you live, whichever is higher, and you must be authorized to use the payment method or account involved. If you are under the age of majority, you may use paid features only with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms.

If you use the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and "you" includes both you and that organization.

You may not use the Services if you are barred from doing so under applicable law, if we have previously terminated or banned you and have not given you permission to return, or if your use would violate export, sanctions, or other laws that apply to you or to us.

3. Your Account

You may need an account to use some features. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information, including a valid email address, and to keep that information updated.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity under your account until you close the account or notify us that it has been compromised. Notify us immediately if you believe someone has accessed your account without permission.

You may not sell, transfer, assign, share, or sublicense your account, username, or other account credentials without our written permission. Usernames, profile URLs, badges, reputation points, ranks, post counts, and similar account features do not belong to you. We may reclaim, rename, suspend, or remove them at our discretion, including for inactivity, impersonation, trademark concerns, security reasons, community management, or enforcement of these Terms.

We may refuse registration, restrict access, require additional verification, or close an account at any time as described in these Terms.

4. Community Participation and Moderation

GBFans.com is a community-oriented service. You are responsible for your own conduct and for anything you post, upload, submit, edit, link to, purchase, message, or otherwise make available through the Services ("User Content").

We may moderate the Services, but we are not required to do so. We may review, edit, move, hide, restrict, label, refuse, or remove User Content at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. We may also limit, suspend, or terminate accounts or access to particular features.

Moderation decisions may consider the letter and spirit of these Terms, community guidelines, legal risk, user safety, service integrity, and the overall health of the community. We are not required to explain moderation decisions or apply rules in the same way in every situation.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to do, attempt to do, encourage, assist, or enable any of the following:

  • Break the law or violate rights. Use the Services in a way that violates any law, regulation, court order, contract, intellectual property right, privacy right, publicity right, or other right of any person or entity.

  • Scrape or automate improperly. Access, monitor, copy, scrape, crawl, index, train on, or interact with the Services using bots, spiders, scrapers, plug-ins, scripts, or automated tools, except that operators of publicly available search engines may crawl publicly accessible pages to create search indexes, subject to our robots.txt and reasonable technical instructions.
  • Reverse engineer or misuse software. Copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to extract source code from the Services except where the law prohibits us from restricting that activity.
  • Misuse identifiers. Buy, sell, trade, reserve, squat on, or otherwise misuse usernames, URLs, badges, ranks, or other identifiers.
  • Frame or hotlink improperly. Frame, embed, mirror, display, or hotlink to non-hypertext content from the Services in a way that misleads users, burdens our systems, or suggests affiliation or endorsement.
  • Commit fraud or abuse transactions. Use the Services for scams, counterfeit goods, stolen goods, payment fraud, chargeback abuse, false claims, deceptive listings, or other transaction abuse.
  • Offer prohibited goods or services. List, sell, trade, request, or facilitate illegal, stolen, counterfeit, infringing, dangerous, regulated, recalled, or otherwise prohibited goods or services through the Services, or in violation of our community rules.
  • Remove notices. Remove, obscure, or alter copyright, trademark, attribution, safety, legal, or proprietary notices.
  • Help others violate these Terms. Encourage, coordinate, assist, or enable conduct that violates these Terms.

We may investigate suspected violations and cooperate with law enforcement, regulators, rights holders, payment processors, shipping providers, hosting providers, and other service providers where we believe it is appropriate or required.

6. Content Standards

You agree that your User Content will not:

  • infringe or misappropriate anyone's copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, privacy right, publicity right, or other rights;
  • include confidential information, personal information, private messages, addresses, phone numbers, payment information, or other sensitive information that you do not have permission to share;
  • be knowingly false, misleading, deceptive, or fraudulent;
  • contain malicious code or technical content intended to damage, monitor, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to systems or data;
  • exist primarily to reserve an account name, URL, listing, identifier, or search result;
  • violate any community rules, shop rules, contest rules, or feature-specific rules that apply to the area where you post it; or
  • expose GBFans.com, our users, or our service providers to legal, security, operational, or reputational risk.

We may record IP addresses, device information, timestamps, logs, and other technical information associated with posts, uploads, edits, purchases, logins, and submissions to operate the Services, protect the community, prevent abuse, process transactions, and enforce these Terms, as further described in our Privacy Policy.

7. Your Content and the License You Grant Us

You keep ownership. As between you and GBFans.com, you keep ownership of your User Content. These Terms do not transfer ownership of your User Content to us.

License to GBFans.com. You grant GBFans.com a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, store, cache, copy, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, excerpt, reformat, publish, publicly display, publicly perform, distribute, transmit, index, archive, and otherwise use your User Content in connection with operating, providing, securing, moderating, improving, preserving, and promoting the Services and the GBFans.com community.

This license allows us to do things such as display forum posts, preserve wiki edits, generate thumbnails, resize images, show previews, quote posts in notifications, back up databases, migrate platforms, feature community contributions, promote the Services, and maintain archives.

Public and collaborative content. Some parts of the Services are public, collaborative, or archival by nature. For example, forum posts may be quoted by others, wiki contributions may be edited by other users, gallery images may appear in feeds or search results, and discussions may remain understandable only if earlier posts remain visible. You understand that your User Content may remain available even after you delete it or close your account, particularly where it has been copied, quoted, archived, backed up, cached, incorporated into collaborative works, or used by others in accordance with these Terms.

Duration of license. The license begins when you submit User Content and continues for as long as needed for the purposes described above. To the extent allowed by law, the license is perpetual and irrevocable for User Content that has been publicly posted, archived, backed up, incorporated into collaborative content, included in community discussions, or used in promotional materials before removal. For User Content that you delete from non-public areas, we will stop using it in ordinary operation after deletion, except as needed for backups, legal compliance, safety, enforcement, dispute resolution, service integrity, and archival purposes.

Your promises. You represent and warrant that you own your User Content or have all rights necessary to submit it and grant the license above, and that your User Content and our permitted use of it will not violate any law or anyone's rights.

Moral rights and attribution. To the extent allowed by law, you waive and agree not to assert any moral rights, attribution rights, integrity rights, or similar rights that would interfere with our use of your User Content as permitted by these Terms. We may, but are not required to, display your username, profile information, or other attribution with your User Content.

No duty to keep content. We are not required to store, maintain, return, or provide copies of User Content. You are responsible for keeping your own backups.

Feedback. If you send us ideas, suggestions, bug reports, feature requests, designs, concepts, or other feedback, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, distribute, and otherwise exploit that feedback without restriction or compensation to you.

8. GBFans.com Content, Software, and Trademarks

The Services contain content, materials, software, code, graphics, text, designs, photographs, videos, audio, logos, trademarks, service marks, trade dress, product designs, page layouts, interfaces, and other materials owned by GBFans.com or licensed to us ("GBFans.com Content").

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Services and GBFans.com Content for your personal, non-commercial use, or for other uses we expressly allow. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.

You may not use GBFans.com names, logos, trademarks, service marks, trade dress, branding, product photos, product designs, or other GBFans.com Content in a way that suggests affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, or authorization without our written permission.

Third-party names, trademarks, service marks, characters, logos, products, franchises, and other materials that appear on the Services belong to their respective owners. Their appearance on the Services does not imply affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement, or authorization unless we expressly say so. GBFans.com is responsible only for its own statements and products, not for third-party rights or statements made by users.

9. Our Limited Role Regarding User Content and Users

User Content is the sole responsibility of the person who submitted it. We do not create, adopt, endorse, verify, or guarantee User Content merely by hosting, displaying, moderating, organizing, promoting, or failing to remove it.

The Services may include opinions, instructions, build guides, tutorials, product discussions, reviews, photos, wiki entries, forum posts, and other content created by users or third parties. You rely on that content at your own risk. You are responsible for evaluating safety, legality, accuracy, and suitability before acting on it.

We provide an interactive computer service. Consistent with applicable law, including Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, we are not the publisher or speaker of User Content provided by another information content provider, and we are not responsible for losses or harm resulting from User Content.

We have no obligation to monitor, screen, or moderate User Content. Our decision to moderate, remove, edit, leave up, label, feature, or restrict any content does not make us responsible for that content or for similar content.

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users. We are not responsible for user conduct, offline meetings, private communications, trades, transactions, disputes, or other interactions between users, except to the extent we expressly agree in writing.

10. The Shop and Purchases From GBFans.com

This section applies when you purchase products, digital items, memberships, services, or other items directly from GBFans.com through the Services. It includes our return and refund policy for those purchases.

Product information. We try to describe products accurately, but product descriptions, images, specifications, compatibility information, availability, prices, shipping estimates, and other information may be incomplete, inaccurate, out of date, or subject to change. Colors, sizes, finishes, packaging, and details may vary from what appears on your screen.

Orders and acceptance. Submitting an order does not guarantee that we will accept it. We may accept, decline, cancel, limit, or require verification for any order, including because of suspected fraud, pricing errors, inventory issues, shipping restrictions, payment problems, or violations of these Terms. If we cancel an order after charging you, we will refund the amount charged for the canceled portion.

Prices, taxes, and fees. Prices are listed in U.S. dollars unless we say otherwise. You are responsible for applicable taxes, shipping charges, customs duties, import fees, carrier fees, and other charges associated with your order. We may collect taxes where we determine we are required or permitted to do so.

Payment. You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method you provide. You authorize us and our payment processors to charge your payment method for the order total, including applicable taxes, shipping, and fees. Payment processing is handled by third-party payment processors, and your payment may also be subject to their terms and privacy practices.

Shipping and delivery. Shipping and delivery dates are estimates only and are not guaranteed unless we expressly say otherwise in writing. Delays may occur because of inventory, production, carrier issues, customs, weather, labor disruptions, force majeure events, or other causes. You are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address.

Preorders, custom items, and limited runs. If we offer preorders, custom items, limited runs, made-to-order products, crowdfunding-style items, or special production items, additional terms may apply. Estimated production and shipping dates for those items are estimates only and may change.

Returns, refunds, and chargebacks. All sales are final except as described in these Terms or required by applicable law. We do not accept returns or issue refunds except where there was a problem with your order that we caused, such as shipping the wrong item or an item that arrived damaged or defective due to our error. In those cases, we will work with you to repair, replace, or refund the affected item. We may require reasonable documentation, such as order information, photos, or return of the affected item, before issuing a repair, replacement, or refund.

If we agree to issue a refund for a reason that was not our fault, such as a change of mind, an ordering mistake on your part, or a cancellation you request after placing an order, we may, to the extent permitted by law, deduct a processing fee of five percent (5%) of the refunded amount to cover non-recoverable payment processing costs.

Certain items may be final sale and non-returnable under all circumstances, except where applicable law requires otherwise, including custom, made-to-order, personalized, limited-run, and digital or downloadable items.

If you have a problem with an order, contact us first so we can try to make it right before you file a payment dispute. If a refund is forced through a chargeback or a claim with a payment processor rather than resolved with us directly, we reserve the right, to the extent permitted by law, to recover any related fees and costs we incur, including by requiring payment of those amounts before we accept or fulfill any future order from you. We may suspend accounts, cancel orders, or restrict future purchases in cases of chargeback abuse, payment fraud, false claims, or repeated payment disputes.

11. Paid Memberships, Subscriptions, and Recurring Charges

We offer paid memberships, and we may offer subscriptions, recurring donations, premium accounts, recurring services, or other automatic renewal products. The specific renewal, billing, cancellation, refund, trial, and price terms shown at signup or checkout apply to those products and are incorporated into these Terms.

We will present renewal terms, billing frequency, cancellation instructions, and other automatic-renewal disclosures where required. By signing up for an automatic renewal product, you authorize recurring charges to your selected payment method until you cancel in accordance with the applicable terms.

Where required by applicable law, including where you signed up online and applicable law requires online cancellation, we will provide an online method to cancel. We may require reasonable account authentication before processing a cancellation request.

Cancellation stops future renewal charges but does not automatically refund past charges unless the applicable membership terms, subscription terms, the return and refund terms in Section 10, or law requires a refund. Access to paid features may continue until the end of the then-current paid period unless the applicable terms say otherwise.

12. Third-Party Sites, Services, and Tools

The Services may link to, embed, integrate, or interact with websites, platforms, payment processors, shipping providers, social networks, video services, analytics providers, advertisers, authentication providers, or other services operated by third parties.

We do not control and are not responsible for third-party sites, services, content, policies, products, practices, or availability. Your use of third-party services may be governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

13. Privacy and Security

Our collection and use of information about you is described in our Privacy Policy. By using the Services, you acknowledge that we collect and use information as described there. If these Terms and the Privacy Policy conflict about how we collect, use, share, retain, or protect personal information, the Privacy Policy controls for that privacy issue.

No online service is perfectly secure. You are responsible for using strong passwords, protecting your devices, signing out of shared devices, and using the Services safely.

If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it to us at [email protected]. You may not exploit, access, disclose, damage, disrupt, or extract data from the Services or from any user, system, or account while investigating or reporting a vulnerability.

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA").

DMCA notices. If you believe content on the Services infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated copyright agent:

GBFans LLC, Copyright Agent
Email: [email protected]
Mail: GBFans LLC, 25587 Conifer Road, Unit 105 PMB 704, Conifer, Colorado 80433

This copyright-agent information should match our current designated-agent registration with the U.S. Copyright Office.

Your notice should include all information required by the DMCA, including:

  • your physical or electronic signature, or the signature of a person authorized to act for the copyright owner;
  • identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or a representative list if multiple works are involved;
  • identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to help us locate it;
  • your name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address;
  • a statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  • a statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act for the owner.

Counter-notices. If your content was removed or disabled because of a DMCA notice and you believe that removal or disabling was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same copyright agent. Your counter-notice should include the information required by the DMCA, including your signature, identification of the removed or disabled material and where it appeared, a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, your contact information, and your consent to the jurisdiction of the appropriate federal court.

Repeat infringers. We may disable or terminate accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyrights or other intellectual property rights, or who repeatedly receive credible infringement notices, in appropriate circumstances.

Misrepresentations. Submitting a false or bad-faith DMCA notice or counter-notice may have legal consequences. You should consider consulting an attorney before sending a notice or counter-notice.

15. Disclaimers

You use the Services at your own risk. To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Services, GBFans.com Content, User Content, products, information, and all other materials made available through the Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, GBFans.com disclaims all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, quiet enjoyment, and any warranties arising from course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade.

We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, virus-free, accurate, complete, reliable, current, or available at any particular time or location. We do not warrant that defects will be corrected or that the Services will meet your expectations.

Information on the Services may include community advice, build guides, technical instructions, safety suggestions, product discussions, repairs, modifications, prop-building information, and other user-generated or third-party content. That content is for general informational and community purposes only. You are responsible for evaluating safety, legality, and suitability, using appropriate tools and protective equipment, following manufacturer instructions, complying with laws, and seeking professional help where appropriate.

We are not responsible for third-party sites, third-party services, third-party products, payment processors, shipping carriers, or user-to-user interactions.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain disclaimers, so some of the above may not apply to you.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, GBFans.com and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, licensors, suppliers, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, enhanced, or punitive damages; loss of profits, revenue, business, data, goodwill, reputation, or anticipated savings; service interruption; computer damage; security incident; or cost of substitute goods or services, arising out of or relating to the Services, User Content, products, transactions, these Terms, or any related matter, even if we have been advised of the possibility of those damages.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, GBFans.com's total aggregate liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the Services, products, transactions, these Terms, or any related matter will not exceed the greater of:

  • the total amount you paid to GBFans.com for the Services or products giving rise to the claim during the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim; or
  • one hundred U.S. dollars (US $100).

The limitations in this section apply to all theories of liability, including contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, statute, and otherwise. They also apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited, such as liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or other liability that applicable law does not allow us to disclaim or limit.

17. Your Responsibility to Us

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless GBFans.com and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, licensors, suppliers, and service providers from and against any third-party claims, demands, actions, investigations, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or relating to:

  • your use or misuse of the Services;
  • your User Content;
  • your purchases, or your interactions and transactions with other users;
  • your violation of these Terms or any additional terms that apply to you;
  • your violation of law or the rights of any person or entity; or
  • use of your account by you or anyone else.

We will try to notify you promptly of any claim for which we seek indemnification. Failure to provide prompt notice will relieve you of your indemnification obligations only to the extent the delay prejudices your ability to defend the claim. We may control the defense and settlement of any claim, and you agree to cooperate with us. We will not settle a claim in a way that admits fault for you or imposes obligations on you without your consent, unless we pay those obligations and the settlement does not require an admission by you.

18. Dispute Resolution, Arbitration, Class Action Waiver, and Governing Law

Please read this section carefully. It affects how disputes between you and GBFans.com are resolved.

Informal resolution first. Before starting an arbitration or lawsuit, you and GBFans.com agree to try to resolve the dispute informally for at least sixty (60) days.

The party raising the dispute must send a written Notice of Dispute to the other party. Your Notice of Dispute must be individually signed by you and sent to GBFans.com at [email protected] or by mail to the legal notice address in the Contact section. It must include your name, account username if applicable, contact information, a description of the dispute, and the specific relief you seek. We will send any Notice of Dispute to the email address associated with your account or to another address we reasonably believe reaches you.

Neither party may begin arbitration or litigation, other than an individual small claims action or a request for emergency injunctive relief, until the informal resolution period has ended.

Governing law. Colorado law governs these Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. To the extent applicable, the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration agreement in this section.

Courts. Except for disputes subject to arbitration, small claims matters, or emergency injunctive relief, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services must be brought exclusively in the state courts located in Jefferson County, Colorado, or the United States District Court for the District of Colorado in Denver, Colorado. You and GBFans.com consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.

Arbitration election. Either you or GBFans.com may elect to require that a dispute be resolved by binding individual arbitration instead of in court by giving written notice of that election after the informal resolution period begins. If either party makes this election, the dispute will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, except as modified by these Terms.

The arbitration may be conducted by video, phone, written submissions, or in person in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area, as allowed by the AAA rules and determined by the arbitrator. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve procedural and merits issues, except that a court will decide issues concerning the validity, enforceability, or scope of the class action waiver.

If the AAA is unavailable or declines to administer a dispute, the parties will work in good faith to select a substitute arbitration provider. If the parties cannot agree, a court of competent jurisdiction may appoint an arbitration provider or arbitrator.

Arbitration fees. For consumer arbitration, we will pay the fees and costs that the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules require businesses to pay. We will also pay any AAA filing, administration, case management, hearing, and arbitrator fees that exceed what you would have paid to file the same claim in court, unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose. Each party otherwise pays its own attorneys' fees and costs unless applicable law, the AAA rules, or an arbitrator's award provides otherwise.

Small claims. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies and remains in that court.

Emergency and intellectual property relief. Either party may seek temporary, emergency, or preliminary injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property rights, confidential information, account security, service security, or against unauthorized access, scraping, spam, or misuse of the Services, without first completing informal resolution or arbitration.

Class action waiver. You and GBFans.com agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff, claimant, class member, or representative in any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding.

The arbitrator may not combine more than one person's claims, may not preside over any form of class or representative proceeding, and may award relief only to the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to resolve that party's individual claim.

If this class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, that claim or request must be severed and brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, and the rest of this dispute resolution section will remain in effect for all other claims and requests.

Mass arbitration procedures. If twenty-five (25) or more substantially similar arbitration demands are filed against GBFans.com or related parties by or with the assistance of the same law firm, organization, group of organizations, or coordinated counsel, the demands will be administered under the AAA Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules and applicable mass arbitration fee schedule to the extent the AAA determines those rules apply. The parties agree to cooperate in good faith with the AAA, any process arbitrator, and any merits arbitrator to administer those matters efficiently, fairly, and consistently with these Terms and applicable law.

Jury trial waiver. To the fullest extent allowed by law, you and GBFans.com waive any right to a jury trial in any dispute that is not resolved in arbitration or small claims court.

Survival. This section survives termination of these Terms and the end of your relationship with GBFans.com.

19. Availability and Changes to the Services

We may add, change, suspend, limit, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time, including features, products, content, community areas, and integrations, and we may set or change limits on the use of the Services. We update and migrate the Services over time, and some features, content, or areas may be changed, retired, or removed. To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not liable to you for changing, suspending, limiting, or discontinuing any part of the Services.

20. Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time. You may close your account by contacting us or using account tools we make available.

We may suspend, restrict, disable, or terminate your access to the Services, in whole or in part, at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. We may do this by disabling or deleting your account, blocking an email address, username, payment method, device, or IP address, removing content, canceling orders where permitted, restricting features, or taking other steps we consider appropriate. Loss of access to the Services is itself sufficient notice of termination, and we are not required to contact you, give a reason, or provide advance warning.

Reasons for action may include violation of these Terms, legal risk, suspected fraud, chargeback abuse, harassment, security risk, inactivity, intellectual property complaints, operational needs, or community protection.

When these Terms terminate, your right to use the Services ends immediately. We may delete, deactivate, retain, archive, or continue displaying your account information and User Content as described in these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

Termination of access to free Services does not automatically cancel, refund, or affect completed shop orders, paid memberships, or amounts owed. Those matters are governed by Section 10 (The Shop and Purchases From GBFans.com), the applicable membership terms, and law.

The following sections survive termination: Your Content and the License You Grant Us; GBFans.com Content, Software, and Trademarks; Our Limited Role Regarding User Content and Users; Privacy and Security; Copyright and DMCA Policy; Disclaimers; Limitation of Liability; Your Responsibility to Us; Dispute Resolution; and General Terms, along with any provisions that by their nature should survive.

21. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated Terms on the Services and update the effective date.

Changes take effect when posted unless we state a later effective date. For material changes, we may provide additional notice, require you to accept the updated Terms when you sign in, or take other steps we consider appropriate. Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Services.

Changes to the dispute resolution section will not apply to a dispute for which a valid Notice of Dispute was sent before the change was posted, unless both parties agree.

22. General Terms

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with all additional terms and policies incorporated by reference, are the entire agreement between you and GBFans.com regarding your use of the Services and replace all prior or contemporaneous agreements on that subject.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable. If it cannot be modified, it will be severed, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later. A waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized GBFans.com representative.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights or obligations under them without our written permission. We may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, to an affiliate, successor, acquirer, or other entity in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or operation of the Services.

No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any rights for anyone other than you and GBFans.com, except where these Terms expressly say otherwise.
