Squire Terms of Service

1. Who can use Squire

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. If you are under the age of majority where you live (18 in most places), you may only use the Service with the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian, who agrees to these Terms on your behalf. By using the Service you confirm you meet these requirements and have the capacity to enter into these Terms.

2. Your account

You need an account to use most of the Service. You agree to:

• provide accurate information and keep it up to date;
• keep your login credentials secure and not share your account; and
• be responsible for everything that happens under your account.

Tell us promptly at [email protected] if you think your account has been compromised. You can close your account at any time.

3. The Service

Squire is a tabletop wargaming army-list builder and community platform. It lets you build, save, import, share, and track army lists across multiple game systems, and provides an API for developers.

The Service is provided free of charge to players. We may offer paid features to others (such as tournament organisers and vendors) — see Section 11. The Service may also include advertising or sponsored content; our Privacy Policy explains how we handle data in connection with it.

We’re actively developing Squire. We may add, change, or remove features, and we may set or change limits (such as storage or API usage), at any time. We’ll try to avoid disruptive changes where reasonable, but the Service is offered on an evolving basis.

4. Acceptable use

When using the Service, you agree not to:

• break the law, or use the Service to infringe anyone’s rights;
• upload or share content that is unlawful, infringing, abusive, harassing, or harmful;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Service, other accounts, or our systems;
• interfere with or disrupt the Service, or probe or test its security without permission;
• scrape, bulk-download, or harvest data from the Service except through the API within its limits;
• reverse engineer or attempt to extract source code, except to the extent the law allows; or
• misuse the Service in any way that imposes an unreasonable load on our infrastructure.

We may investigate and take action — including removing content or suspending accounts — if we believe these Terms have been broken.

5. Your content

You keep ownership of the content you create, upload, or import — including army lists, rosters, notes, tracking data, and imported files such as BattleScribe .ros / .rosz rosters (“Your Content”).

To run the Service, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, process, display, and back up Your Content — solely so we can operate, maintain, secure, and provide the Service to you. Where you choose to share or publish content (see Section 6), that licence extends as needed to make the sharing work. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for residual copies retained for a limited period in backups, or where we must keep it to comply with the law.

You’re responsible for Your Content, and you confirm you have the rights needed to upload and share it.

6. Sharing and community content

The Service may let you share content — for example, via a link or by making a list public. When you share content, you grant other users a limited licence to view and use that content as the relevant feature allows (for example, viewing or copying a shared list). Anything you make public can be seen and copied by others and may be cached or indexed outside our control, so share thoughtfully. You can change or remove sharing for content you control.

7. Game systems and third-party intellectual property

Squire is an unofficial, fan-made tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed, sponsored, or approved by Games Workshop or any other game publisher, manufacturer, or rights holder.

Game, faction, unit, and option names, together with game rules, lore, artwork, and associated trademarks and copyrights, are the property of their respective owners. Squire claims no ownership of them. Where the Service references such names, it does so only to the extent needed to identify units and options so you can build and organise lists — it does not reproduce publishers’ rules text, lore, or artwork. We do not grant you any rights in any publisher’s intellectual property.

Squire does not provide the official rules for any game. You are responsible for owning the rulebooks, codexes, and other publications you need to play. The Service helps you organise and build lists; it is not a substitute for the official products.

The game-system data the Service relies on comes from open-source, community-maintained sources such as BSData, published and maintained by independent third parties. This data is factual and functional information — points values, characteristics, and the unit and option names needed to build and organise lists — not the rules text, lore, or artwork from any publisher’s products.

If you are a rights holder and believe specific copyrighted material has been included in the data we make available, contact us at [email protected] identifying that material, and we will work with you to remove it.

8. Game data and list legality

Game-system data on the Service comes from open-source, community-maintained sources (such as BSData), published and maintained by independent third parties. This data may contain errors, omissions, or out-of-date rules, and may not reflect the latest official errata or FAQ.

We do not warrant that any list, calculation, or legality check is accurate, complete, or valid for official, casual, or tournament play. Tools that indicate whether a list is “legal” or within points are provided to assist you only. You are responsible for verifying your list against the current official rules and any event-specific requirements before playing. We are not responsible for outcomes — such as a list being rejected at an event — that result from reliance on the data or tools.

9. Our intellectual property

The Service itself — including the Squire software, design, interface, branding, and the “Squire” name and logo — is owned by Sonder Digital Pty Ltd or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Service for its intended purpose, subject to these Terms. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.

10. The Squire API

If you use the Squire API, you must do so through a Squire account and within any published limits and documentation. You agree not to use the API to:

• exceed rate limits or circumvent technical restrictions;
• bulk-replicate the Service’s data to build a substitute or competing dataset; or
• create an application that breaches these Terms.

The API is provided as-is and may change or be deprecated. We’ll give reasonable notice of breaking changes where we can, but we don’t guarantee the API’s continued availability or backward compatibility.

11. Payments and paid services

The Service is free for players. Some features and transactions — for example, tournament organiser tools, vendor features, or event entry fees — may involve payment.

Where payments occur:

• prices and any fees will be shown before you commit;
• payments are processed by our payment provider, Airwallex, and (where relevant) the organiser or vendor receiving the payment, under their own terms;
• you agree to pay all applicable amounts and taxes; and
• where you authorise a payment, you confirm you’re entitled to use the payment method.

Our role in event payments is to facilitate the transaction. Where the Service is used to collect entry fees or similar payments for an event, the tournament organiser or vendor is responsible for the event, the goods or services, and any refunds, cancellations, or disputes. We are not the organiser or merchant for those events and are not responsible for them, except as required by law. Refund and cancellation terms are set by the organiser or vendor; contact them in the first instance.

12. Feedback

If you send us ideas, suggestions, or feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use them without restriction or obligation to you. We’re always glad to hear them.

13. Suspension and termination

You can stop using the Service and close your account at any time.

We may suspend or terminate your access — in whole or in part, with or without notice — if you breach these Terms, if your use poses a risk to the Service or others, or if we’re required to by law. We may also discontinue the Service, or any part of it, with reasonable notice where practicable.

On termination, your right to use the Service ends. Sections that by their nature should survive — including content licences already granted to other users, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnity — survive termination.

14. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that data, calculations, or legality checks will be accurate or complete (see Section 8).

This Section is subject to Section 15.

15. Limitation of liability

Australian Consumer Law. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where our liability for breach of a non-excludable guarantee can be limited, our liability is limited, at our option, to re-supplying the relevant service or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.

Otherwise, to the maximum extent permitted by law:

• we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or anticipated savings; and
• our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms is limited to the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) AUD $100.

Because the Service is provided free to players, you acknowledge this limitation is reasonable.

16. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify us against reasonable losses, damages, and costs we suffer arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Service, or Your Content — except to the extent the loss was caused by us.

17. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. You and we submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria and the courts able to hear appeals from them. Before starting formal proceedings, we encourage you to contact us at [email protected] so we can try to resolve the matter.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we’ll update the “Last updated” date and, where appropriate, notify you through the Service or by email. Changes take effect when posted (or on any later date we specify). Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

19. General

• Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them to a successor in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
• Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
• No waiver. If we don’t enforce a right, that’s not a waiver of it.
• Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service.
• Notices. We may give notices through the Service or by email; you can reach us at the address below.
