Fan Content Policy

Our community creates awesome content surrounding our games, and we love to support you and your content however we can. We’re excited to see what your creative minds can come up with from our games and how you can help others enjoy them.

This Fan Content Policy governs your use of Critical Force Oy’s (“Critical Force”) copyrights and trademarks from our games, including any related assets and fan kits we provide for Fan Content purposes. We will not give warnings for violations of this Policy.

Section 1 - Rules for fan content

1.1 Creating Fan Content based on Critical Force and its game’s IP is allowed if you comply with this Policy. Any Fan Content that violates this Policy is strictly prohibited.

1.2 This Policy applies only to Critical Force IP that you access pursuant to Critical Force’s Terms of Service, end user license agreements, and/or other agreements you have with Critical Force. For example, if you have agreed to Critical Forces’ end user license agreement for a particular game, then this Policy covers the Fan Content you create based on that game.

1.3 All Fan Content must be appropriate for the audience of the Critical Force IP and consistent with the spirit and tone of the Critical Force IP (as determined by Critical Force). Fan Content must comply with applicable law, may not violate the rights of others, and must not be obscene, sexually explicit, defamatory, offensive, objectionable, or harmful to others.

1.4 Fan Content must have no commercial (i.e., monetary) objective. As an exception to this, individual fans are permitted to monetize web videos (such as YouTube) with advertisements, so long as those videos otherwise meet the requirements of this Policy.

1.5 Critical Force, in its sole discretion, can revoke your permission to create Fan Content at any time and for any reason.

1.6 You may not say nor imply that your Fan Content is endorsed or approved by Critical Force.

1.7 Your Fan Content may not include links to any website promoting or exploiting cheats or hacks to Critical Force’s games or other games.
1.8 You may not create or use any Fan Content in a manner that could cause people to believe that it is an official Critical Force production. For example, a fan website may not be designed to look like an official Critical Force website, and it must be clear to visitors that the website is not a Critical Force website.

1.9 You may not use any Critical Force IP in any manner that is derogatory to Critical Force or that may damage the value, reputation, or goodwill of Critical Force or its products or brands (as determined by Critical Force).

1.10 You must display the following disclaimer on or in connection with your Fan Content, including on any web page containing your Fan Content:

• Portions of the materials used are trademarks and/or copyrighted works of Critical Force Oy. All rights reserved by Critical Force. This material is not official and is not endorsed by Critical Force.

1.11 If you use Critical Force brands, logos, game titles, character names, or other trademarks (“Marks”) in connection with your Fan Content, you must follow these rules:

• Marks must be used only in connection with the discussion of the Critical Force products or businesses they represent. Do not use Marks to identify or promote you, your Fan Content, or any other products or business.
• Marks must be used in a manner that will enhance and not damage the reputation and goodwill associated with the Marks.
• Do not use any Marks in the name of a website unless it is clear from the name that the website is not an official Critical Force website.
• Do not register or use any domain name that is confusingly similar to our domain names.
• Do not alter any Marks. Examples: “Critical Ops” should never be changed to “Ops Critical”.
• The colors of a logo should not be altered, and the design and appearance of the logo should not be modified or adapted into a new logo.

Section 2 - Your agreements with Critical Force

Except for the limited permission described in Section 1 above, your use of any Critical Force IP is subject to Critical Force’s Terms of Service, end user license agreements, and other agreements you may have with Critical Force regarding the websites, games, and other materials from which you access the Critical Force IP. Those agreements include important legal terms (such as limitations of liability, disclaimers of warranties, and dispute resolution), so please review those agreements carefully before creating any Fan Content.

Section 3 – Enforcement of Rights

Critical Force reserves the right to take legal action against you for your misuse of Critical Force IP.
