Terms of Service

Last updated: May 29, 2026

This document is a starting template and should be reviewed by a qualified attorney before you rely on it. It is not legal advice.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Cygnusworks website, accounts, and related services at cygnusworks.com (the "Services"). By using the Services you agree to these Terms. The game client itself is also covered by the End User License Agreement.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to create an account or use the Services. By using them you represent that you meet this requirement and that the information you provide is accurate.

2. Your account

You are responsible for activity under your account and for keeping your credentials secure. Tell us promptly at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized use. One person may not maintain accounts to abuse, evade bans, or distort leaderboards.

3. Callsign reservations

You may reserve a pilot callsign before launch. Reservations are first-come, first-served, are personal to your account, and are held for use in Meridian Void. We may reclaim, rename, or refuse callsigns that are impersonating, offensive, infringing, or otherwise in breach of these Terms, and we may set a limit of one active reservation per account. A reservation is not a guarantee of any particular launch date.

4. Badges and virtual items

Badges, achievements, standings, and other in-account or in-game items have no monetary value, are licensed not sold, and cannot be transferred, sold, or exchanged for cash except where we expressly allow it. We may add, modify, or retire badges and reset or adjust standings to keep things fair.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

Break the law or infringe anyone's rights using the Services.
Cheat, exploit, automate, or otherwise gain an unfair advantage, or interfere with other players.
Probe, scrape, overload, or disrupt the Services or their infrastructure.
Reverse engineer or circumvent security except where the law expressly permits it.
Upload malware or post unlawful, harassing, or infringing content.

6. Our content and yours

The Services, Meridian Void, and all related trademarks, art, and code are owned by Cygnusworks or our licensors and are protected by law. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Services for their intended purpose. Anything you submit (for example a callsign or feedback) remains yours, but you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free license to use it to operate and improve the Services. We may use feedback without obligation to you.

7. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or to protect the Services or other players. You may stop at any time and delete your account from the account deletion page. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive.

8. Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. Pre-launch features may change or be removed.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cygnusworks will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

10. Changes

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be noted by updating the date above and, where appropriate, by notice in the Services. Continued use after changes means you accept them.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Cygnusworks is established, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. [Insert governing jurisdiction and dispute-resolution terms after legal review.]
