1. Status of the Platform

1.1. myMiniGT is a digital platform for collectors, dealers, sellers and other members of the scale model vehicle community.

1.2. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company determines the structure, content, functionality, design, moderation standards, ranking logic, availability of features, composition of free and paid features, and the terms on which access to the Platform is granted and terminated.

1.3. The Company may add, restrict, modify, suspend or discontinue any feature, in whole or in part. If changes materially affect functionality that has already been paid for, the Company may, at its discretion, offer a reasonable alternative, extend the remaining subscription period or apply another adjustment, unless otherwise required by mandatory law.

2. User Account

2.1. Registration may be required to access certain features.

2.2. The User must provide accurate, current and non-misleading information.

2.3. The User is responsible for safeguarding account access credentials, for actions taken through the account and for the security of devices used to access the Platform.

2.4. The Company may request verification of information, restrict features, temporarily suspend or delete an account where there are reasonable grounds to believe that these Terms have been violated, fraud, multi-accounting or bonus abuse has been identified, material user complaints have been received, a risk to the Platform exists or other material circumstances apply.

2.5. Where this does not conflict with security, anti-fraud review, legal-compliance purposes or the rights of the Company or third parties, the User may be notified of the measure taken and may, at the Company’s discretion, be given an opportunity to appeal the decision or remedy the breach.

2.6. An account, login, profile, status, achievements, favourites, activity history and related items are provided as a limited right to use the service. They do not constitute an independent digital asset of the User outside the Platform.

3. Subscriptions and Internal Digital Units

3.1. The Platform may offer paid Lite, Pro and Max subscription tiers. The features, price, term, limitations and benefits of each tier are determined by the Company and may be changed.

3.2. MGTcoins are free internal promotional units that may be credited, including for data contributions, activity on the Platform, completion of internal tasks, participation in referral programmes and other actions determined by the Company.

3.3. MGTcredits are paid internal digital units purchased with fiat currency at a base rate of 10 MGTcredits = USD 1.00, unless the Platform specifies a different rate, promotion, tax or fee at the time of purchase.

3.4. MGTcoins and MGTcredits may be used to pay for selected Platform features, services, subscriptions, listings, promotional tools and other digital functionality, as determined by the Company.

3.5. MGTcoins and MGTcredits are not legal tender, electronic money, digital financial assets, bank liabilities or property subject to mandatory redemption, refund or exchange for fiat currency, except where expressly required by mandatory law.

3.6. In the event of technical errors, anti-fraud review, breach of these Terms, cancellation or reversal of payment, system abuse or other reasonable grounds, the Company may credit, decline to credit, restrict, debit, cancel, correct, withhold, block or discontinue the use of MGTcoins, MGTcredits, bonuses, discounts and privileges.

4. MGTcoins and Abuse Prevention

4.1. MGTcoins are credited only when the conditions established by the Company are met. The Company has no unconditional obligation to credit MGTcoins.

4.2. The User must provide honest, complete and accurate data. Knowingly false, inaccurate, duplicative, artificially generated or manipulative information constitutes a breach of these Terms.

4.3. All forms of manipulation are prohibited, including creation of multiple accounts, fictitious registrations, abuse of the referral programme, simulated activity, automated data submissions, coordinated activity intended to obtain rewards artificially and other bad-faith methods of increasing MGTcoins.

4.4. If a breach is identified, the Company may, taking into account the nature, seriousness, recurrence and consequences of the breach, decline to credit MGTcoins, cancel previously credited MGTcoins, temporarily restrict account features, suspend the account, prohibit participation in the referral programme, restrict access to particular paid features or delete the account.

4.5. If the User commits three consecutive breaches within a three-month period involving inaccurate data, manipulation, fictitious referrals or other abuse of the bonus system, the Company may unilaterally terminate that User’s participation in bonus and referral mechanisms, cancel improperly obtained MGTcoins, restrict or terminate subscription access and delete the account. In such case, no refund will be provided for the unused subscription period, to the extent permitted by mandatory law, where the breach was material.

4.6. The existence and seriousness of a breach, the duration of a restriction and the sufficiency of evidence shall be determined by the Company based on internal rules, event logs, anti-fraud tools, moderation data and other available information.

5.1. The Platform may allow Users to invite other participants through referral mechanisms.

5.2. Referral rewards may be granted in MGTcoins or in another form determined by the Company.

5.3. The Company establishes the conditions under which an invited user is counted as a referral, the amount and timing of rewards, grounds for refusal and circumstances in which rewards may be cancelled.

5.4. Self-referrals, invitations of affiliated or fictitious accounts, use of temporary contact data, bots, mass-registration schemes and any means intended to obtain referral rewards artificially are prohibited.

5.5. The Company may invalidate referral-programme results, revoke rewards and impose restrictions on any participant where there are reasonable grounds to doubt the good faith of that participant’s actions.

6. Marketplace and Model Exchange

6.1. The Platform may host offers to sell, purchase, reserve and exchange models.

6.2. Sellers may include both collectors and dealers. The Company may impose additional requirements on particular seller categories, including verification, assortment restrictions, rating thresholds, posting limits and fees.

10.4. The User independently evaluates risks and makes economic, collecting and commercial decisions at their own risk.

10.5. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall not be liable for indirect losses, loss of profit, diminution in the value of models, unmet expectations, disputed transactions or decisions made in reliance on analytics, rankings, news, forecasts or User content available on the Platform.

11.8. If a winner fails to provide required data, does not confirm consent to data processing for delivery, provides inaccurate data, fails to respond within the specified period or declines receipt, the Company may deem the prize unclaimed and select another winner or dispose of the prize in another manner specified in the rules of the relevant activity.

12.4. Unless mandatory law requires otherwise, restriction or deletion of an account for a material breach does not require the Company to restore MGTcoins, MGTcredits, rankings, achievements, photographs, correspondence, subscriptions or other digital values.

13.1. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Platform is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
