Further, during certain Contests, Squads may be reliant on third-party operators to provide “live scoring” of certain sporting events and matches. At times, you may not be able to see or access the most up-to-date information or “live scoring” for the relevant sporting event or match. Updates of displayed information may put a User at a disadvantage to other Users who have access to more updated information. Furthermore, there may be delays incorporated into the registered time of in-play statistics to prevent manipulation of rosters and cancellations. Regardless of the reason for the delay in information, Squadsshall not be liable for any such delay in provision of information or “live scoring.”

Regardless of the reason for errors or omissions in historical statistics, Squads shall not be liable for a User&aspos;s reliance on historical statistics.
“Live scoring,” information, statistics and their respective components are offered for informational and/or entertainment purposes only and are not used to determine the results of Contests.

Squads takes every effort to ensure that accurate, up-to-date scoring is applied across all Contests. However, Squads does not guarantee the accuracy of any scoring or stat corrections. Official scores and results will be posted at the conclusion of the sporting event or competition once it has been declared official and all official box scores and statistics are posted. However, in some cases, clear and obvious stat corrections posted by eitherSquads' third-party data provider or the official statistics provider for the event or competition may be retroactively applied to entries and taken into consideration for determining how to score the Contest at Squads' discretion.

Users may participate in Contests only as specified in the Terms and Code of Conduct. Failure to comply with these Terms or the Code of Conduct will result in disqualification and, if applicable, Prize forfeiture or seizure.

Squads, in its sole discretion, may disqualify you from a Contest or the entire Service, refuse to award Prizes, require the return of any Prizes, or suspend, limit, deactivate or terminate your Account if you engage in conduct Squads deems, in its sole discretion, to be improper, unfair, fraudulent, in violation of the Terms or Code of Conduct or is otherwise adverse to the operation of the Service or in any way detrimental to other users.

Before making any payment, Squads may require that an entrant complete and execute an affidavit of eligibility in which, among other things, the entrant is required to represent and warrant that the entrant is eligible to participate in a Game, is otherwise in compliance with this Agreement and, potentially, is required to provide documentation or proof of eligibility and compliance. If Squads requests that an entrant completes and executes such an affidavit and the entrant fails to do so within seven (5) business days, or Squads otherwise determines that the entrant does not meet the eligibility requirements or is not in compliance with these terms, Squads reserves the right to terminate the entrant's account and withhold or revoke the awarding of any prizes associated with such account. In such a situation, Squads may pay out any withheld or revoked prizes to the other entrants in the relevant game in a manner consistent with the Rules of the Game.

Entrants may withdraw their cash prize awards as well as cash deposits by using the “Withdrawal” option on the platform. Entrants may be requested to complete an affidavit of eligibility and a liability/publicity release (unless prohibited by law) and/or appropriate tax forms and forms of identification including but not limited to a Driver's License, International Passport, and/or any information relating to payment/deposit accounts as reasonably requested by Squads in order to complete the withdrawal of prizes. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in disqualification and forfeiture of any prizes. Disqualification or forfeiture of any prizes may also occur if it is determined any such entrant did not comply with these Terms of Use in any manner.

Promotional deposits, credits, and other bonuses may not be withdrawn from a Squads Account unless appropriate terms of the promotion are achieved first by the user.

All taxes associated with the receipt of any prize are the sole responsibility of the winner.
In the event that the awarding of any prizes to winners of Games is challenged by any legal authority, Squads reserves the right in its sole discretion to determine whether or not to award such prizes.

No substitution or transfer of prize is permitted, except that Squads reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal value or greater if the advertised prize is unavailable.
