While you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of use of each applicable ESP, in the event or conflict between this Agreement and the ESP's terms and conditions then this Agreement shall prevail.

Acceptance of cash out requests is subject to any deposit method restriction, bonus restrictions and Security Reviews (as set out below) and any other terms of this Agreement. All amounts you withdraw are subject to the transaction limits and any processing fees for certain withdrawal methods that we notify you of before cashing out. Further, the Company may report and withhold any amount from winnings in order to comply with any applicable law. All federal, state and local taxes due in connection with any winnings awarded to you are your sole liability. Account Balances cannot be transferred, substituted or redeemed for any other prize. Payment of funds that you withdraw shall be made by cheque, wire, credit card and/or any other manner that the Company selects in its sole discretion, although we will try to accommodate your preferences as indicated by you when you register. Payments will be made as soon as reasonably possible, although there may be delays due to any Security Review (see section 20 below) undertaken by the Company and save where the Company holds any such payments in accordance with this Agreement.

16. Inactive Account Fees and Abandonment of Accounts

Regarding the Platform, if you do not access your Account by "logging on" to your Account using your Account name and password and (i) place a cash wager, or (ii) enter a tournament with a cash entry fee, or (iii) play a raked hand, for any period of 180 days, then after those 180 days (the "180-day grace period") your Account (and any related account with any ESP) will be deemed "Inactive".

If your Account becomes Inactive, then the Company is entitled to charge you an administrative fee (the "Inactive Account Fee"). The Company will deduct an amount up to the Inactive Account Fee amount from your Account Balance on the day following the end of the 180-day grace period and then every thirty (30) days thereafter in accordance with the Inactive account Fee Schedule.

We will stop deducting the Inactive Account Fee from your Account Balance if your Account is re-activated.

You agree to keep your Account name and password secret and confidential and not to allow anyone else to use it. If you intentionally or unintentionally, directly or indirectly, disclose your Account name and password to another person, and such disclosure results in a third party participating in the Games using your Account name and password, such participation may be held valid, and you will not be refunded any resulting losses at the Platform, regardless of whether or not the third party had your consent or not. The Company shall not be required to maintain Account names or passwords although if you have lost your Account name or password, please contact us for a replacement. If you misplace, forget, or lose your account name or password because of anything other than Company's error, the Company shall not be liable.

19. Fraudulent Activities and Prohibited Transactions

The Company has a zero tolerance policy towards inappropriate play and fraudulent activity. If, in the Company's sole determination, you are found to have cheated or attempted to defraud the Company or any other user of any of the Games in any way including but not limited to game manipulation or payment fraud, or if the Company suspects you of fraudulent payment, including use of stolen credit cards, or any other fraudulent activity (including any chargeback or other reversal of a payment) or prohibited transaction (including money laundering), the Company reserves the right to suspend and/or close your Account and to share this information (together with your identity) with other online gaming sites, banks, credit card companies, and appropriate agencies.
