You are responsible for activity under your account. Do not impersonate others, evade a suspension or use automation to create accounts or content. Tell an administrator if you believe your account has been compromised.
The agreement
Terms & community standards
The practical rules for using Play Foundry, publishing content and looking after the people around you.
The short version
Be decent. Play fair. Protect the community.
These terms apply when you browse, register for or contribute to Play Foundry. You must be at least 16, provide accurate account information and protect access to your email account.
Play Foundry is an independent, member-led community. Access is provided as available and may change while the service develops. Connected services such as Discord, Google and Amazon have their own terms and privacy practices.
Your content
You keep ownership of content you create. You give Play Foundry a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, display, reproduce and moderate it only as needed to operate and promote the community. You must have permission to share it.
Moderation
Administrators may remove content, lock discussions, limit features or suspend accounts to enforce these terms, protect users or secure the service. We will consider context and severity, but immediate action may be necessary.
Reviews & links
Reviews must reflect genuine experience and disclose gifts, sponsorships or commercial interests. Affiliate links are labelled. As an Amazon Associate, Play Foundry earns from qualifying purchases. A recommendation is not a warranty or personal purchasing advice.
Availability
We do not promise uninterrupted availability or that every post will be retained. Back up anything important. To the extent permitted by law, Play Foundry is not responsible for losses caused by third-party services or member conduct outside its reasonable control.
Leaving
You may delete your account from My account. This removes your login, profile and content linked to your account. We may retain limited moderation, security or legal records where necessary, as explained in the Privacy Notice.
Treat people with respect
No harassment, hate speech, bullying, threats or deliberately hostile behaviour. Disagree with ideas without attacking the person.
Play fairly
Do not promote, distribute or request cheats, exploits, account theft, botting tools or instructions intended to undermine fair play.
Protect privacy
Never share another person’s private information, private messages, real-world identity or location without clear permission.
Keep content appropriate
No illegal material, sexual content involving minors, graphic shock content, scams, malware or links intended to harm members.
Mark spoilers clearly
Use spoiler warnings and the relevant channels for story details, especially around new releases and single-player games.
Promote thoughtfully
Do not spam streams, referral links, sales or other communities. Ask an admin before posting repeated promotional material.
Support moderation
Report problems privately and follow reasonable moderator instructions. Do not organise pile-ons or public arguments about moderation actions.
Understand commercial links
As an Amazon Associate, Play Foundry earns from qualifying purchases. Affiliate links are labelled, recommendations remain editorially independent and using them does not change the price you pay.
Moderation and enforcement
Report problems. Don’t start pile-ons.
Admins may remove content, issue warnings, restrict access or remove members where necessary. Serious threats, fraud, doxxing, cheating services or illegal content may result in immediate removal. Decisions can be reviewed by another admin when practical.
Effective 19 July 2026. We may update these terms as the community develops and will identify material changes. See the Privacy Notice for how personal data is handled. Game names, artwork and trademarks belong to their respective rights holders; their appearance does not imply endorsement.
