You must be at least 13 years of age (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction) to use ENDSCREEN. By using the App, you represent that you meet this requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
2. Description of Service
ENDSCREEN is a retro-gaming community platform designed for arcade and classic gaming enthusiasts. The App enables users to capture, submit, and verify arcade score data through camera-based OCR scanning, participate in bounties, and engage with leaderboard and community features.

Notify us immediately at admin [at] shredlvl [dot] com if you suspect unauthorized access.
4. Virtual Currency (Credits / ₡)
ENDSCREEN features a virtual currency system referred to as "Credits" or "₡". By using the App, you acknowledge and agree to the following:
- Credits are a closed-loop digital commodity used exclusively for in-app engagement, including participation in Bounties and related platform activities.
- Credits hold zero real-world fiat value. They are not legal tender, securities, or stored-value instruments.

- Credits cannot be cashed out, withdrawn, transferred for monetary consideration, or exchanged for real-world currency under any circumstances.
- Credits are non-transferable between users except where explicitly permitted by in-app mechanics, and they confer no property rights outside the App.
- Shred Level, LLC reserves the right to modify, rebalance, award, deduct, or discontinue the Credits system at any time, with or without notice, to maintain platform integrity.
5. Subscriptions & In-App Purchases
ENDSCREEN may offer optional subscription tiers processed through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and RevenueCat. Subscription fees, billing cycles, renewal terms, and cancellation procedures are governed by the applicable platform's terms. Shred Level, LLC does not process direct payment card transactions for subscriptions within the App.
6. User Conduct

- Fake, forge, manipulate, or misrepresent score screenshots or OCR scan results, including through photo editing, screen overlays, replay attacks, or any other method designed to deceive the verification system;
- Interfere with, reverse-engineer, or circumvent OCR scanning, leaderboard metrics, or anti-fraud systems;
- Engage in targeted harassment, hate speech, threats, doxing, or sustained personal attacks outside the scope of standard competitive gaming banter;
- Impersonate another user, Shred Level staff, or any third party;
- Use automated scripts, bots, or unauthorized tools to interact with the App or manipulate rankings;
- Exploit bugs, glitches, or vulnerabilities for unfair advantage rather than reporting them responsibly.
7. Score Verification & Camera Use
By submitting score photographs through the App, you grant Shred Level, LLC a non-exclusive license to process, store, and analyze those images for OCR verification, leaderboard integrity, and enforcement purposes as described in our Privacy Policy. You represent that all submitted images are authentic captures of legitimate gameplay on the hardware and game title indicated.
8. Account Termination & Enforcement
Shred Level, LLC reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend, terminate, or permanently ban any user account, and to wipe or invalidate telemetry data (including scores, bounty records, and stored verification images), for any user found to be:
- Manipulating the OCR scanner or submitting fraudulent score screenshots;
- Artificially inflating or distorting leaderboard metrics;
- Violating these Terms or any applicable law;
- Engaging in conduct that harms the integrity of the platform or its community.
Termination may occur with or without prior notice. Upon termination, your right to access the App and any associated Credits ceases immediately. No refund of subscription fees is owed for terminations resulting from Terms violations, except where required by applicable platform policy or law.
