Terms and Conditions

These are the Terms and Conditions of War Snails, accessible from https://www.warsnails.com.

** Here it is in plain English **

Chances are that you are not going to read all of our Terms and Conditions, so we thought it would be useful to have a very simple overview before all the legal speak.

War Snails operates this site to promote our NFTs and the War Snails game. Our two objectives are to create a thriving community, and secondly to sell our products which will allow us to deliver even more value to the War Snails community.

Between this website, our minting site, discord community and social channels, we collect very basic information about people who engage with us, and what types of content they engage with. For example, we track how many people actually read to the bottom of our homepage, or our white paper. This helps us to figure out what content is important to our community and where to focus our efforts. We’ll never sell your personal data or share your email address with third parties, you have our word on this.

Other than that, this is a pretty vanilla terms and conditions policy. Read on for the full details.
