Terms of Use

Site purpose

Deadlock Times provides patch notes, game-data tables, wiki-style references, ratings, and editorial analysis. We try to keep information accurate, but game data, patch details, APIs, and third-party sources can change or be unavailable.

Accounts and voting

• You may need to sign in with Discord to vote, rate changes, access account features, or use editor/admin tools.
• Steam linking is optional unless a feature clearly states that Steam context is required.
• Votes and ratings must reflect your own view. Do not automate, sell, manipulate, or coordinate abusive voting.
• We may remove votes, restrict accounts, or block access when necessary to protect the site or rating integrity.

Acceptable use

• Do not attack, scrape abusively, overload, reverse engineer private services, or bypass access controls.
• Do not upload or submit illegal, infringing, harassing, deceptive, malicious, or privacy-invasive content.
• Do not impersonate others or misrepresent your relationship with Deadlock Times, Valve, players, teams, or events.

Content and intellectual property

Deadlock-related names, images, logos, fonts, and game assets belong to Valve Corporation or their respective owners. Deadlock Times site code, editorial text, original page layouts, and non-Valve branding are owned by Deadlock Times or their contributors unless stated otherwise. You may link to public pages, but do not copy substantial site content without permission.

Third-party services

The site may rely on Discord authentication, Steam OpenID, Deadlock-related APIs, hosting, database, CDN, object storage, and future analytics or advertising partners. Third-party services have their own terms and privacy practices. Optional analytics or advertising scripts are governed by our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

No warranties

Deadlock Times is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not promise uninterrupted service, error-free data, or that every patch, table, rating, or account feature will remain available. Use site information at your own risk.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Deadlock Times and its contributors are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost data, lost profits, or service interruptions arising from your use of the site.

Changes and termination

We may change the site or these terms over time. We may suspend or terminate access for conduct that violates these terms, threatens security, harms other users, or creates legal risk. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated terms.
