By accessing, installing, downloading, possessing, or using Simuspaces, you agree to these terms. If you are using Simuspaces on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these terms.

User Content
9. Ownership Of User Content
Simuspaces may allow users to upload, create, configure, publish, or share scenes, worlds, avatars, scripts, media, names, descriptions, branding, event information, and other content. You retain ownership of content you own, subject to the license below and any rights held by third parties.
10. License To Operate The Platform
By uploading or publishing content to Simuspaces, you grant Virtualworld Systems LLC a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, process, display, perform, transmit, modify for technical operation, and make that content available according to your selected platform settings.

Do not upload copyrighted material, trademarks, likenesses, music, video, audio, software, or other protected content unless you have the necessary rights.
13. Moderation
Simuspaces may remove, restrict, hide, disable, or preserve content at any time if we believe it violates these terms, creates legal or safety risk, harms platform operation, or is otherwise inappropriate for the service. Accounts associated with violations may be limited, suspended, or banned.
Events, Payments, And Commercial Use

Simuspaces may allow users to create free or paid events, public worlds, private worlds, and related listings. Event features, upload limits, access levels, pricing tools, and account types may change over time.
15. Paid Events And Ticketing
Paid event hosting, ticket sales, commercial use, revenue share, payout timing, transaction fees, refunds, chargebacks, and related obligations may require a separate written agreement with Virtualworld Systems LLC. Unless we expressly authorize otherwise, tickets to events hosted on Simuspaces may not be sold outside approved Simuspaces ticketing or payment systems.
16. Refunds And Chargebacks
Refund availability depends on the event, payment processor, applicable law, and any separate commercial agreement. Contact support before initiating a chargeback so we can review the issue. Improper or fraudulent chargebacks may result in account restrictions, fees, or loss of access where permitted by law.
17. Payment Processors
Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers. Those providers may collect and process payment information under their own terms and privacy policies. Simuspaces does not control third-party payment processor policies.
