Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between LeagueStock, LLC (“LeagueStock,” “we,” “us,” “our”) and you regarding your use of LeagueStock’s website located at www.theleaguestock.com (the “Website”), mobile applications, and related services (collectively, the “Service(s)”). By using the Services, and any content, materials, features, or functionality provided through the Services, you agree to be bound by the following Terms, our Privacy Policy located at www.theleaguestock.com/privacy, and any official rules and/or additional terms for the applicable contests, tournaments, and/or promotions provided in accordance with the Services. All such terms are hereby incorporated by reference into these Terms. Any new features or tools that are added to the current Services shall also be subject to the following terms. 

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY, AS THEY CONTAIN AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AND OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES, AND OBLIGATIONS.

BY REGISTERING AN ACCOUNT AND/OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, OUR PRIVACY POLICY, AND ALL RESPECTIVE RULES REGARDING THE SERVICES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS OR DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THEM, YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE USE OF THE WEBSITE AND ALL SERVICES, AND WHERE APPLICABLE, REMOVE ANY SOFTWARE THAT HAS BEEN DOWNLOADED FOR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.

User Agreement and Modifications

These Terms constitute a legal agreement between you and LeagueStock and apply to your access and use of the Website and Services. If you do not agree to these Terms, your sole remedy shall be to discontinue use of the Website and Services. 

LeagueStock reserves the right to change these Terms from time to time, at any time, without prior notice. Any such changes shall take effect when posted on the Website. Your continued access and/or use of the Website or the Services following any such change constitutes your continued acceptance and agreement to be bound by such change. 

Access and Use of the Service

Eligibility: You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age to open an account, participate in Services, and win prizes offered via the Services. In jurisdictions, territories, and locations where the minimum age for permissible use of the Website is greater than eighteen (18) years of age, you must meet the age requirement in your local jurisdiction or territory. You must be at least nineteen (19) years of age at time of account creation if you are a legal resident of Nebraska or Alabama or twenty-one (21) years of age if you are a legal resident of Iowa or Massachusetts. Legal residents physically located in any of the fifty (50) states and Washington, DC, excluding Arizona, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, New York, Nevada, and Washington (the “Excluded States”) are eligible to open an account and participate in contests offered by the Website. Additional states may be included in or removed from the Excluded States section at our sole discretion. You agree to abide by all applicable laws in the jurisdiction where you are located while using the Website. We have the right, at any time, to request you to furnish us with proof of your identity, your age and/or your place of residence. Your account may be suspended pending receipt of this information to verify your eligibility to use the Services. If, as determined in our sole discretion, an account is deemed to be in breach of any term within this section, including rules regarding the age of majority and place of residence, any prizes won by use of that account will be forfeited.

LeagueStock employees (“Employees”) and any domestic partner or relative of an Employee who resides at an Employee’s residence, including but not limited to parents, grandparents, in-laws, children, siblings, and spouses (“Immediate Family Members”) are not permitted to play in any public contests or tournaments for prizes hosted on the Website; provided, however, Employees and Immediate Family Members are permitted to play in the following contests on the Website: sponsored Private Contests, Private Contests for cash, or Private Contests for prizes other than cash. A “Private Contest” is one that is not listed on the Website’s public domain, and is hosted by another participating Employee, relative, friend of the Employee, or Immediate Family Member. Notwithstanding, Employees and Immediate Family Members living in the same household as such Employees located in Colorado are prevented from competing in any fantasy contests offered by any fantasy contest operator in which the operator offers a cash prize.

Professional or amateur athletes, sports agents, coaches, team owners, team employees, referees or league officials, and their Immediate Family Members, are not eligible to participate in, and are strictly prohibited from entering, any contests or tournaments in the sport in which they are associated.

User Accounts

Account Registration: You may be required to sign up and register an account with LeagueStock in order to participate in the Services offered on the Website. You may establish only one account per person, and you must be of legal age in the jurisdiction in which you physically access the Website or Services in order to create an account. In the event LeagueStock discovers that you have opened more than one account, in addition to any other rights LeagueStock may have against you, LeagueStock reserves the right to suspend or terminate any or all of your accounts and terminate, withhold or revoke the awarding of any prizes.

By signing up, you: (i) confirm that you have read these Terms and that you agree to be bound by them, our rules, and our Privacy Policy, each of which is incorporated by reference into these Terms, and (ii) represent that you are legally able to enter into a binding contract, agree to the use of electronic communication in order to enter into contracts and that you wave any rights or requirements under applicable laws or regulations in any jurisdiction that requires an original (non-electronic) signature, to the extent permitted under applicable law. You agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service’s registration form, including, but not limited to, your age, full name, place of residence, and a valid email address. You represent and warrant that all registration and account information you supply to us is complete and accurate and (through timely updates) kept up to date. You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of this information. Should the registration information provided prove false or misleading, we may suspend or terminate your account. Our Privacy Policy governs registration data and other information collected from us about you regarding your use of the Services. 

Authorized Account Holder, Password, and Security: Only the Authorized Account Holder may use an account. "Authorized Account Holder" is defined as the natural person 18 years of age or older who is assigned to an e-mail address by an Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, education institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning e-mail addresses for the domain associated with the submitted e-mail address for registration on the Website. By inputting a payment method to participate in real-money contests or tournaments, the Authorized Account Holder affirms that the Authorized Account Holder is the lawful owner of the payment method account used to make any deposit(s) on the Website. It shall be a violation of these Terms for any Authorized Account Holder to submit payment using any payment method that is not owned by the Authorized Account Holder.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. We reserve the right to disable any account if, in our reasonable opinion, your account information has been compromised. You agree to immediately notify LeagueStock of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security. LeagueStock will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your password and/or otherwise prevent unauthorized use and/or access to your account

Your account is not a bank account and is therefore not insured, guaranteed, sponsored or otherwise protected by any deposit or banking insurance system or by any other similar insurance system. Deposits and prizes after contests are finished are held in a separate, segregated bank account. We use third-party electronic payment processors to process financial transactions executed through your use of the Services. You irrevocably authorize us to instruct such processors to handle deposits and withdrawals from your account and irrevocably agree that we may give such instructions on your behalf in accordance with your requests, or as consequence of your activity regarding use of the Services.

Termination or Suspension of Accounts: You have the right to close your account at any time. We may need to suspend your account for any period we see fit if we reasonably believe that your account is being used in violation of applicable law(s). We also reserve the right to suspend or immediately terminate your account and/or take reasonable legal action against you if we reasonably believe that you (i) are cheating or engaging in fraud, (ii) are not the Authorized Account Holder; (iii) are under the legal age in the jurisdictions in which you reside, (iv) have provided incorrect and/or false information during registration of your account, (v) are in a jurisdiction excluded from participation in the Services, (vi) are harassing other players, (vii) posting objectionable material, (viii) have created multiple accounts, or (viii) have otherwise committed a breach of these Terms, the Privacy Policy, or any contest rules.

Modifications to Service: LeagueStock reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that LeagueStock will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

Deposits and Withdrawals

Deposits: You may deposit funds in your account upon the providing of necessary information. The maximum deposit you can make into your account in any monthly period is USD $1,000.00; provided, we reserve the right to increase or decrease deposit limits pursuant to applicable law. If any deposit is charged back or is otherwise uncollectible for any reason, the amount of the initial deposit and any winnings generated from your participation in real money contests or tournaments from the time of the applicable deposit until its reversal or un-collectability shall be invalidated, forfeited and deducted from your account balance. LeagueStock reserves the right to close your account if a deposit is charged back, or if it is determined that you: (i) are not of legal age in order to access the Website or Services, or (ii) have violated any of the Terms, at the time of making a deposit.

In order for you to make any deposits by credit card, you must be the authorized user of such credit card. You agree to immediately notify us of any changes to your credit card account number, its expiration date and/or your billing address in order to make deposits with your credit card. If your credit card is cancelled or expired, you must immediately update your credit card prior to future use. We are not liable for any loss caused by any unauthorized use of your credit card or other method of payment by a third party in connection with the Services. Any attempt to defraud through the use of credit cards or other methods of payment, failure to honor legitimate charges or requests for payment, or any other violation of these Terms will result in immediate termination of your account, forfeiture of winnings, and pursuit of civil litigation and/or criminal prosecution.

Third Party Payment Provider: When you use a third-party payment service provider to make a deposit on our Website, the third-party payment service provider maintains primary responsibility for payment and payment related customer support. The terms between the third-party payment service provider and customers who utilize services of the third party are governed by a separate agreement between the service provider and the customer, and are not subject to these Terms. It is your responsibility to review any agreements you may have with such third-party payment service provider, and you agree LeagueStock shall not be liable for any damages resulting from your use of any third-party payment service provider.

Withdrawals: You may withdraw funds from your account beginning thirty (30) days following your initial deposit, provided all prizes have been confirmed and you have satisfied our identification procedures and play-through requirements. Where required by law, we will require you to furnish your tax identification number prior to payout of prizes. To make a withdrawal, you will need to fill out necessary information required by the Website. Payments and withdrawals can be made using credit or debit cards registered to your address only. We may not accept certain cards for payments, deposits or withdrawals.

AML Compliance: In order to protect against fraud and collusion, and to comply with anti-money laundering requirements, you may be prevented from withdrawing funds until a period of 48 hours has elapsed since your last deposit. It is therefore advised that you wait at least 48 hours from the time of your last deposit before making a request to withdraw funds. 

Release: You may be requested to complete an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (unless prohibited by law) and/or appropriate tax forms and submit forms of identification including but not limited to a driver's license, proof of residence, and/or any information relating to payment/deposit accounts as reasonably requested by us in order to complete a withdrawal. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in disqualification and forfeiture of any prizes. 

Refund Policy: All payments (including, but not limited to, entry fees) provided for use of the Services are final. Except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Use, no refunds will be issued. In the event of a dispute regarding the identity of the person submitting an entry, the entry will be deemed submitted by the person in whose name the account was registered.

Contests

Games of Skill: All contests offered on the Website are fantasy sports contests of skill. Winners are determined by the objective criteria described in the contest rules, scoring, and any other applicable documentation associated with the contest. From all entries received for each contest, the individuals who use their skill and knowledge of relevant sports information, investment strategy, and fantasy sports rules to accumulate the most points according to the corresponding contest scoring rules will determine winners. Our Services (including, but not limited to, the contests) may not be used for any form of illicit gambling.

Entry Fees and Prizes: Users will be able to visit the Website and view the contests and tournaments available for entry. Each contest or tournament that is not free to enter will have an entry fee listed in US dollars. When you select to participate in a contest or tournament and complete the entry process, the listed amount of US dollars will be debited from your account.

Entry fees and prizes may vary depending on the contest. See each contest’s rules for more information. Each contest is governed by its own set of rules. We encourage you to read the rules prior to entry. All taxes associated with the receipt of any prize are the sole responsibility of the winner. In the event that any legal authority challenges the awarding of any prizes to winners of a contest or tournament, LeagueStock reserves the right in its sole discretion to determine whether or not to award such prizes.

Live Scoring: To the extent that LeagueStock offers 'live' scoring during gameplay, all 'live' scoring and other information provided through the Website are unofficial. While LeagueStock and the third parties used to provide the Services use reasonable efforts to include accurate and up-to-date information, neither LeagueStock nor its third party providers warrant or make any representations of any kind with respect to the information provided through the Services and related information sources. LeagueStock and its third party providers shall not be responsible or liable for the accuracy, usefulness, or availability of any information transmitted or made available via the Website and related information sources, and shall not be responsible or liable for any error or omissions in that information.

Contest Results: Contest results will be based solely on the data provided by our third party data providers and LeagueStock’s proprietary “player performance index,” which is subject to human error and may not be 100% accurate. As such, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of the data used to allocate points scoring in all circumstances, nor do we accept liability for any loss or damage resulting from any such inaccuracies. We reserve the right to make corrections or amendments to the scoring or points allocated during a contest at any time before the prize for that contest has been awarded. For more information regarding the scoring and points allocation system, please review the applicable rules for the contest.

Suspension and/or Cancellation of Contests: We reserve the right to suspend contest entries and/or cancel a contest at any time. Prizes will only be awarded if a contest is run to completion. In the event of a cancellation, all entry fees received for such contest will be credited back to each entrant’s account. We reserve the right to disqualify you from any contest and/or further prohibit your use of the Website and/or the Services (and require the return of any prizes) if you engage in any conducted prohibited by these Terms (see Conditions of Use), or (as determined in our sole discretion) deemed to be improper, unfair, fraudulent, or otherwise adverse to LeagueStock’s ability to operate the Website. You acknowledge that the forfeiture and/or return of any prize shall in no way prevent LeagueStock from informing the relevant authorities, and/or pursuing criminal or civil proceedings in connection with such conduct

We also reserve the right to withhold payment and to cancel, suspend, and/or void any entries at our absolute discretion where: (i) there is a technological failure or other act beyond our reasonable control, including, but not limited to, an act of God, hurricane, war, fire, riot, earthquake, terrorism, an act of public enemies, actions of governmental authorities outside of our control, national emergency, pandemic, stoppage of athletic events, or other force majeure event (each, a “Force Majeure Event”); (ii) there is any issue with athlete tracking and/or projections; (iii) we suspect a breach any of these Terms; (iv) the integrity of the contest has been called into question; or (v) collusion between players has, or is believed to have, taken place. The failure of LeagueStock to comply with any provision of these Terms due to a Force Majeure Event shall not be considered a breach of these Terms.

Beta: You acknowledge that the Website is currently operating in “beta mode.” By registering an account and/or otherwise participating in contests, you agree to be bound by any and all limitations imposed by LeagueStock while operating in “beta mode.”

If for any reason the Service (whether operating in “beta mode” or otherwise) is not running as originally planned (e.g., if the Website becomes corrupted or does not allow the proper usage and processing of entries in accordance with the rules, or if infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, actions by entrants, fraud, technical failures, or any other causes of any kind, in the sole opinion of LeagueStock corrupts or affects the administration, security, fairness, integrity or proper operation of any contest and/or the Services), LeagueStock reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to disqualify any individual implicated in or relating to the cause and/or to cancel, terminate, extend, modify or suspend the Service. 

Virtual Currency and Securities Laws

Virtual Currency: LeagueStock may provide and/or allow you to obtain virtual currency and/or other virtual items (i.e. athlete shares) (“Virtual Currency”) for use on the Website or Services, including, without limitation, contest or tournaments. You acknowledge that Virtual Currency has no real-world value and cannot be redeemed (from us or any other party) for real money, goods or other items of monetary value. 

You acknowledge that you do not in fact “own” the Virtual Currency. By acquiring Virtual Currency, you acknowledge that you have obtained a limited and revocable license to a digital product for use only in the Website, including, without limitation, the contest or tournaments. This license is personal to the owner of the account participating in such contest or tournament, and Virtual Currency may not be sold, transferred, assigned, gifted, traded or sublicensed (including for monetary exchange or for any other value). Account holders may not combine, transfer or share Virtual Currency with other account holders.

Any attempt to transfer, sell or perform any action related to your use of Virtual Currency in violation of these Terms may subject you to termination of your account and/or legal action. We reserve the right to take any other action or additional action we deem appropriate in our sole discretion in the event we believe (in our sole discretion) that you have violated these provisions.

Non-Security Transactions: LeagueStock is not a regulated financial services provider. When entering a contest (or purchasing athlete “shares”), you acknowledge that you do not own any share in the athlete in terms of genuine equity shares or any tokens issued by or on behalf of the athlete, nor do you have any ownership, proprietary or other rights over the actual athlete. Athlete shares have no real-world value and are not commonly traded. You further acknowledge that your participation in a contest or tournament is not subject to federal or state securities laws. For the avoidance of doubt, you acknowledge that your use of the Website, Services, or participation in any contests or tournaments offered by the Website does not include participation in: (i) securities-based transactions, (ii) unauthorized security-based swaps, (iii) investment contracts, or (iv) commodities. You acknowledge that participation in a contest or tournament does not qualify as “common trading,” and that any virtual items, including, without limitation, Virtual Currency, provided for participation in a contest or tournament, cannot be publicly traded and has no real world value or other value outside the framework of such contest or tournament.

Conditions of Use

All contest or tournament entries shall become the property of LeagueStock. LeagueStock reserves the right to move entrants from a contest or tournament they have entered to a substantially similar contest or tournament in certain situations as determined by LeagueStock in its sole discretion.

Other company, product, and service names and logos used and displayed via the Service may be trademarks or service marks of their respective owners who may or may not endorse or be affiliated with or connected to LeagueStock. Nothing in these Terms or the Service should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any of LeagueStock Trademarks displayed on the Service, without our prior written permission in each instance. All goodwill generated from the use of LeagueStock Trademarks will inure to our exclusive benefit.

Unless otherwise expressly authorized herein or in the Service, you agree not to display, distribute, license, perform, publish, reproduce, duplicate, copy, create derivative works from, modify, sell, resell, exploit, transfer or upload for any commercial purposes, any portion of the Service, Service Content, use of the Service, or access to the Service.

Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration:

THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION PROVISION. YOU AGREE THAT IF WE CANNOT RESOLVE A DISPUTE, ALL DISPUTES ARISING UNDER THESE TERMS SHALL BE SETTLED IN BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU ALSO AGREE THAT ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES A WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND PARTICIPATION IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.

a) Agreement to Arbitrate

This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in this Terms as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and LeagueStock, whether arising out of or relating to this Terms (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, any advertising, any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. You agree that, by entering into this Terms, you and LeagueStock are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.

b) Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

YOU AND LEAGUESTOCK AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND LEAGUESTOCK AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.

c) Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail or email, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to LeagueStock should be sent to info@theleaguestock.com. You agree that all notices to be sent to you shall be sent to the email associated with your account. The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If LeagueStock and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or LeagueStock may commence an arbitration proceeding. 

d) Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, http://www.adr.org/consumer_arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator may award any relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award, and the arbitration decision may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. You agree to abide by all decisions and awards rendered in such a proceeding, which shall be final and conclusive. At your request, hearings may be conducted in person or by telephone. The prevailing party in any action or proceeding shall be entitled to reasonable costs and attorneys' fees.

Unless LeagueStock and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, AAA shall make the determination. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, LeagueStock agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the AAA Rules will determine the right to a hearing. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

Notwithstanding the foregoing arbitration provisions, in no event shall LeagueStock be precluded or delayed from seeking and obtaining temporary, preliminary and/or permanent injunctive relief, without the posting of any bond or proving of actual damages, against infringement or other violation of its claimed Intellectual Property rights in a court of appropriate jurisdiction.

e) Confidentiality

All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.

f) Severability

If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection (b) titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of the Terms will continue to apply.

Termination

You agree that LeagueStock, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service and remove and discard any content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if LeagueStock believes that you have violated these Terms. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of Service may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. LeagueStock may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice.
