TERMS OF USE
(Applicable to Video Game Press, Content Creators and Steam Curators)

PressEngine Limited (“PressEngine”) owns and operates the platform available at PressEngine.net (“the Website”). PressEngine functions as a marketing utility tailored to enable intellectual property holders to engage with relevant recipients, delivering content solely to those who have expressed interest in particular categories, and preventing unwanted communication.

The platform includes tools for email and IP content distribution, event coordination, and analytical reporting. By accessing The Website and engaging with the information, services, and features provided on the Website, you (“User”, “Content Creator”, “Video Game Press”) accept and agree to comply with these Terms of Use.

Account Creation and Responsibilities
When registering for an account on the Website (“Account”), you affirm that all information you provide is accurate and complete. You are entirely responsible for securing your password and for all activity conducted under your Account. If you become aware of any unauthorized access, you must notify us immediately.

You must be at least 13 years of age—or the minimum age in your jurisdiction allowing for lawful data collection and agreement to these terms to register. If it is discovered that personal information of a user under this minimum age has been collected, we will promptly delete such data and terminate the corresponding Account.

You acknowledge that we may use your data in aggregated form for statistical and analytical purposes. For details on how we handle your data, refer to our Privacy Policy.

User-Generated Content
PressEngine allows users to share content, including but not limited to websites, podcasts, livestreams, videos, and social media activity (“Content”) from your respective channels or publications (“Outlet”).

By submitting Content to the Website, you represent and warrant that:

• You have the legal right to share such Content;
• Sharing this content does not breach these Terms of Use or infringe on third-party rights, including intellectual property or platform terms (eg. YouTube, Twitch, TikTok);
• The Content is free of malicious code such as viruses, worms, or malware;
• It is not spam, nor machine or AI generated;
• It does not promote deceptive practices or unethical commerce;
• It is not pornographic, incites violence, or invades anyone’s privacy.

Acceptable Use and User Conduct
You may not engage in any behavior that we, at our sole discretion, consider to:

• Breach these Terms;
• Interfere with other users’ access to or use of the Website;
• Be defamatory, harassing, threatening, or abusive.

We reserve the right to suspend, limit, or terminate access to the Website and your Account without notice.

Disciplinary action may include warnings, temporary suspensions, or permanent account deactivation in response to:

• Mass-applying to key campaigns without intent to produce genuine coverage;
• Repeatedly applying to misaligned campaigns;
• Maintaining a poor coverage score or failing to deliver expected content;
• Engaging in artificial metrics manipulation (e.g., bots, paid views);
• Redeeming game keys without producing original in-game content.

We retain full discretion to investigate and act on violations to preserve platform integrity.

Key Campaigns
The platform enables game developers and publishers (“Companies”) to distribute video game keys (“Keys”) to Users upon request. Companies have full authority to approve or decline such requests. Users who receive and accept a Key must create content for the game within 14 days. Failure to submit content will lower the associated Outlet’s Coverage Score, which may reduce future access to campaigns. A high Coverage Score increases a User’s likelihood of being selected for further Keys.

Intellectual Property
All branding elements, including but not limited to names, logos, scripts, icons, and service identifiers, are proprietary trademarks of PressEngine (“Proprietary Marks”). Unauthorized use is prohibited.

All software present on the Website is owned by PressEngine or its vendors and is protected under UK and international copyright law.

Limitation of Liability
You are solely accountable for all Content you post. PressEngine is not liable for:

• Any inaccuracies or omissions in your Content;
• Damages arising from your use of or reliance on said Content;
