B. Account Rules

You may not attempt to influence the play in any sporting event from which athletes are available for selection in contests on Drafters in which you are involved or in which you have a direct or indirect interest. You may not use a proxy server to engage with Drafters for any means, including for the purpose of misrepresenting your location. If you are a professional or amateur athlete, or a sports agent, team employee, referee or a league official you may not enter any real money Contests of the sport in which you are associated. If you are an officer, employee or agent of any daily fantasy provider or operator, you may not play on Drafters for money.

Your inability to provide such verification documents could result in your access to real money Contests being suspended and all funds being locked to allow for further investigation. Without limiting the foregoing, any transactions made and accepted on the Website in which your Registration Data has been used and where you have not previously notified Drafters, as provided herein, not to process such transactions, will be treated as valid and you will be responsible for the same, including any expenses incurred. Drafters will not issue any form of compensation.

D. One Account
Only one Account is allowed per person. If it is determined that you have registered more than one Account, then you acknowledge and agree that you shall not be eligible to win any prizes and Drafters has the right to suspend or terminate your Account(s), refuse any and all current or future use of the Website (or any portion thereof), and/or all deposits and winnings may be voided and not returned to you.

E. No Transfer
Your Account is not transferable. Under no circumstances shall you allow or permit any other person or third party to use or re-use your Account or your Registration Data in such a way that may breach the standards or laws in any Jurisdiction where you are located and/or are a resident, or where such other person is located and/or is a resident. Any User found to have violated this Section may be reported to the relevant authorities and will forfeit all funds in his or her Account. Drafters will not be liable for any loss that you may incur as a result of someone else using your Account, either with or without your knowledge. However, you will be liable for losses incurred by Drafters or another party due to someone else using your Account.

F. Deposits
To participate in certain Contests, you will be required to deposit funds into your Account by any of the methods permitted by the Website. Such funds will be deposited into your Account upon actual receipt of funds by Drafters and/or its agents. Minimum and maximum limits may apply to deposits into your Account, depending upon your history with the Website, the method of deposit, standards or laws in any Jurisdiction where you are located and/or are a resident, and other factors as determined solely by Drafters. Drafters is not a bank and funds are not insured by any government agency. No interest is payable on amounts on deposit or in balance in your Account. All payments into your Account must be from a payment source on which you are the named account holder.

All deposits and withdrawals will be denominated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise expressly stated. If you make a deposit that is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, please be aware that the funds will be converted into U.S. dollars by our Payment Processors (defined below) or your financial institution, and you may be charged a service fee for such conversion. Please also be aware that our Payment Processors or your financial institution may use different conversion rates for deposit and refund transactions. The conversion rate used is not under the control of Drafters, and Drafters recommends that you contact your financial institution directly for more information.

Deposits, and player winnings after Contests are finished, are held in a separate, segregated bank account. These funds belong to you, subject to review for evidence of fraud, verification or other prohibited conduct as described herein, and Drafters may not use them to cover its operating expenses.

G. Winnings
Winnings will be deposited directly into your Account. Any amounts that are mistakenly credited as winnings to your Account remain our property and will automatically be transferred out of your Account upon confirmation of the error. Any winnings mistakenly credited to your Account that have been withdrawn by you before confirmation of the error will constitute a debt owed by you to Drafters in the amount of such wrongfully attributed winnings.

It is the policy of Drafters, in compliance with United States Internal Revenue Service regulations, to send an IRS Form 1099 or other appropriate form to any User who wins in excess of $600 (USD) on the Website in any given year. Depending on the jurisdiction in which you reside, Drafters may also send you additional, similar tax forms. However, you remain solely responsible for paying all federal and other taxes in accordance with the laws that apply in your state, province, and/or country of residence.

H. Withdrawal Process
You may request a withdrawal of funds from your available cash account balance in your Account at any time. The minimum withdrawal is $20.00 U.S. dollars. Account holders with pending deposits or pending withdrawals must wait until those funds clear before requesting a withdrawal. Drafters reserves the right to process full or partial cashouts via refund or via alternative payout methods at their discretion. If you do not receive your withdrawal within ten (10) business days, please contact customer support at support@drafters.com.

Drafters reserves the right to freeze your Account and/or delay a request for withdrawal of funds pending completion of any investigation of reported or suspected abuse by a User requesting withdrawal of funds. Abuse includes collusion and bonus money abuse which would be making picks that ensure a net gain of real cash with multiple tickets of contradicting picks, while reaching the required rollover from those picks. Drafters also reserves the right to require you or your credit card company (if applicable) to submit verification of identification to ascertain the validity of a withdrawal request and the identity of the User. Drafters may also require secondary verification for individuals associated your cashout, such as name on the paypal or credit card not matching with account information. Withdrawal payments will not be made until such verification is received. If Drafters has not received such requested verification within ten (10) days, your withdrawal request will be cancelled and the Account in question will be suspended.

If your Account is closed by Drafters for a violation of these Terms, your deposits and winnings may be voided and not returned to you. In such an event, Drafters may use these funds to defray the costs of administration and enforcement of these Terms.

I. Bonus Balance
Bonus Money is currency that is given to users by an admin but cannot be cashed out until a rollover requirement is met. The rollover requirement shown in the rollover progress bar. For example, if $10 bonus money is awarded, and has a 10x rollover, the user must join $100 worth of total entry fees to cash out this money. Once the rollover is met, the “Bonus Balance” will be shown as Cash. “Bonus Balance”, “Bonus Money” = “Bonus Cash” = “Bonus Funds” are all interchangeable.

The site reserves the right to remove bonus money from a users account if the user is found in violation of our terms and conditions or has not signed in to the site for an extended period of time (8 months). Any removal of bonus money is at the final discretion of Drafters.

J. Account Inactivity Monthly Fee
If your Drafters account has no activity for a period of twelve (12) months, it will be categorized as inactive. Drafters will impose a fee of $3.99 per month on all inactive accounts until the account is reactivated through actions such as participating in a contest, making a deposit, or withdrawing funds. Drafters will provide advance notice of at least thirty (30) days to all users subject to an inactivity fee before deducting any charges.

Should your account remain inactive for the duration stipulated by relevant state law, typically falling within a range of thirty-six (36) to sixty (60) months, it will be deemed abandoned. Once an account reaches abandoned status, Drafters is obligated by state law to forward the unclaimed funds to the appropriate state agency as abandoned property. Additionally, Drafters may apply supplementary fees associated with the transfer of abandoned funds to the relevant state agency.

Contest Play
A. Contest Rules
The Website offers different types of Contests including head to head challenges and multiple team competitions with varying roster requirements and number of rounds of drafting. Draft rules, player rankings, entry fees, and scoring may differ from Contest to Contest. Contests are governed by specific rules, as may be modified from time to time, which are set forth in the Official Rules and are incorporated into these Terms by this reference. 

You have the responsibility to review relevant Official Rules prior to participating in any Contest, and to review relevant Official Rules for any changes. You agree to abide by the then-current Official Rules for any Contest(s) in which you are entered. Your failure to follow the then-current Official Rules for any Contest(s) in which you are entered will result in your immediate and automatic forfeiture of the Contest, and Drafters reserves the right to immediately terminate your access to the Website.

The results and winner(s) of each Contest offered on the Website will be determined in accordance with the Official Rules corresponding to that Contest. Once winner(s) of a Contest are announced by Drafters, the results will not be changed in light of official adjustments made by the professional leagues, though Drafters reserves the right to make adjustments based on errors or irregularities in the transmission of information to Drafters from its statistics provider or in its calculation of results. Drafters, in its sole discretion, also may make adjustments in the event of noncompliance with these Terms. Drafters reserves the right to reverse the payment of prizes in the event of any adjustment. You agree to be bound by any such adjustments. 

B. Entry Fees and Payment
While some Contests may be free to enter, certain Contests on this Website will have an entry fee, which may vary from Contest to Contest. It is your responsibility to know and understand the Official Rules and required entry fees relating to any given Contest. For Contests with entry fees, the entry fees will be deducted from the funds deposited in your Account. You may receive supporting information relating to charges to your Account by sending a written request to support@drafters.com.

C. Contest Prizes
At the conclusion of each Contest, the tentative winner(s) are announced (generally by the following day) but remain subject to final verification. Prizes may then be awarded, consistent with each Contests’ relevant Official Rules, to winners within a reasonable time after the Contests’ conclusion. Prizes awarded are reflected in Contest winners’ Accounts. 

No substitution or transfer of a prize is permitted. All taxes associated with the receipt or use of any prize are the sole responsibility of winners. In the event that the awarding of any prizes to winners of any Contest is challenged by any legal authority, Drafters reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine whether or not to award or adjust such prizes. In all disputes arising out of the determination of winners of Contests, Drafters is the sole judge and its actions are final and binding. All prizes are awarded AS IS and WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, express or implied, (including, without limitation, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose) by Drafters.

D. Notification of Winners and Affidavit of Eligibility
Winners are generally posted on the Website after the conclusion of each Contest, generally by the following day. Prize winners may be required to execute and return, via email or regular mail, an affidavit of eligibility; a copy of winners’ driver’s license; a liability release; and, where lawful, a publicity release within seven (7) days of issuance. If such documents are not returned within the specified time period, or if the prize or prize notification is unclaimed or returned as undeliverable, or if the prize winner is not in compliance with these Terms, the prize will be forfeited and may be awarded to another winner at Drafters’ discretion.

E. Contest Stakes
Drafters’ Contests are intended to be played for the stakes specified in the Website. Under no circumstances are Contests allowed to play for entry fees or prizes other than those specified in the Official Rules relating to each Contest. Doing so constitutes a violation of Drafters’ Terms. Should Drafters become aware that you are playing for stakes other than those specified, then Drafters may take disciplinary action, including but not limited to suspending your Account or suspending other privileges (such as the ability to use in-app chat rooms).

F. Cancellation Policy
Drafters, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to modify, suspend, cancel or terminate a Contest, or extend or resume the entry period, without giving advance notice and without restrictions. For example, Drafters may cancel a Contest if it cannot be guaranteed the Contest can be carried out fairly or correctly for technical, legal or other reasons; if Drafters suspects that any person has manipulated entries or results, provided false information or acted unlawfully or unethically; or if the minimum number of Contest entries is not met. If Drafters cancels or terminates a Contest, any advertised prizes may, at Drafters’ sole discretion, be either voided or awarded in any manner it deems fair and appropriate, consistent with laws and regulations governing such Contest.

G. Contests of Skill
You agree and acknowledge that Drafters’ Contests are designed to test the Contest entrants’ respective proficiency in exercising their judgment, knowledge, and reasoning, as applied within the constraints of the Contests’ Official Rules, relating to professional sports (“skill”). You therefore further agree and acknowledge that the outcome of each Contest is predominantly determined by the Contest entrants’ relative skill.

H. Collusion
Collusion is a violation of our terms. This includes any anticompetitive action within a game to help another team win for any reason. This is at the discretion of the operator and may result in the winners of a game being changed, Leagues deleted, or users banned from the site.

You acknowledge that the forfeiture and/or return of any prize shall in no way prevent Drafters from informing the relevant authorities, and/or pursuing criminal or civil proceedings in connection with such conduct. Drafters also reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to add, alter, cancel, suspend, or terminate the Website or any other Service offered therein, at any time and without notice to you.

Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING A RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. 

You and Drafters agree to arbitrate all disputes between you and Drafters, except disputes relating to the enforcement of Drafters’ or its affiliates’ intellectual property rights.  “Dispute” includes any dispute, action or other controversy between you and Drafters concerning the Services or these Terms, whether in contract, tort, warranty, statute or regulation, or other legal or equitable basis.  You and Drafters empower the arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of these terms or formation of this contract, including the arbitrability of any dispute and any claim that all or any part of these terms are void or voidable.

In the event of a dispute, you or Drafters must send to the other party a notice of dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth name, address and contact information of the party giving notice; the facts giving rise to the dispute; and the relief requested. You must send any notice of dispute to Super-Draft Canada Ltd 5805 Whittle Road, Suite 9
Mississauga, Ontario L4Z 2J1. Drafters will send any notice of dispute to you at the contact information Drafters has for you.  You and Drafters will attempt to resolve a dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the notice of dispute is sent.  After sixty (60) days, you or Drafters may commence arbitration.  You or Drafters may also litigate a dispute in small claims court if the dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court, whether or not you negotiated informally first.

If you and Drafters do not resolve a dispute by informal negotiation or in small claims court, the dispute shall be settled by binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act.  YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.  Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and its Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes.  For more information, visit www.adr.org or, in the United States, call 800-778-7879.  Arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online.  The arbitrator may award damages to you individually as a court could, including declaratory or injunctive relief, but only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.

If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration will take place at any reasonable location convenient for you.  For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in the Province of Ontario, Canada, and you and Drafters agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located there, in order to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.  Neither you nor Drafters will seek to have a dispute heard as a class action, private attorney general action, or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity.  No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to the arbitration or proceeding.  If the class action waiver is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration.
