Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By using Whiskermon (the "Bot"), accessing the Whiskermon website, or participating in any related services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, don't use the Bot — the cats will survive without you.

You must be at least 13 years old to use Whiskermon. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms on your behalf. By using the Bot, you represent that you meet these age requirements.

Whiskermon is also subject to Discord's Terms of Service. Violations of Discord's ToS are also violations of these Terms.

2. Acceptable Use

You agree to use Whiskermon only for its intended purpose: catching unhinged cats, battling for turf, and accumulating a deeply questionable collection. The following are prohibited:

• Violating any applicable laws or regulations
• Threatening, harassing, or engaging in fraudulent behavior toward other users or the Whiskermon team
• Attempting to gain unauthorized access to other users' accounts or private data
• Disrupting or interfering with the Bot's normal operation
• Exploiting bugs, glitches, or unintended behavior to gain an unfair advantage — and especially not sharing or publicizing them
• Impersonating Whiskermon, its staff, or official communications
• Using unauthorized third-party software or automation tools in connection with the Bot
• Exchanging virtual items or currency for real-world value outside of the Bot
• Hosting events that reward Discord server invites or server advertising using Whiskermon resources
• Condoning or facilitating any of the above violations by others

We reserve the right to suspend or permanently ban any account that violates these Terms, without notice, at our sole discretion. The cats stay. You don't.

3. Automation & Third-Party Software

Whiskermon is intended to be used by humans. Actual humans. Not scripts pretending to be humans.

The following are strictly prohibited:

• Auto-catching scripts or macros that automatically respond to cat spawns
• Selfbots or any automation that acts on your behalf within Discord
• Automated store purchases, trade execution, or quest manipulation
• Any program that simulates user input to interact with the Bot

Accounts found using automation tools will be suspended. No appeals, no fishbones refunded.

4. Virtual Currency & In-Game Items

Fishbones, catnip, tuna, stardust, yarn balls, and all cats you catch ("Virtual Goods") exist solely within Whiskermon. They have no monetary value outside the Bot and cannot be redeemed for real currency or transferred to any external system.

The following are prohibited:

• Real-money trading (RMT): Selling, buying, or exchanging Virtual Goods for real currency, cryptocurrency, or anything of real-world value
• Cross-game trading: Exchanging Virtual Goods for items or currency from other games or bots
• Account selling: Selling or transferring your Whiskermon account to another person

Exception: trading Virtual Goods in exchange for a user boosting your Discord server is permitted, provided it complies with Discord's own policies on server boosting incentives.

We reserve the right to modify, adjust, reset, or eliminate any Virtual Goods at any time — including nerfing your favourite legendary — without liability or compensation. The economy is ours. The fishbones are ours. You're just holding them.

6. Disclaimer of Warranties

WHISKERMON IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE BOT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

This includes but is not limited to: data loss, spawn failures, turf battles behaving in deeply unfair ways, and cats despawning before you could type !catch. These disclaimers apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

7. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WHISKERMON AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF VIRTUAL GOODS, OR LOSS OF PROFITS, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE BOT.

8. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Whiskermon and its operators from and against any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Bot, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.

9. Service Interruptions & Termination

We may suspend, modify, or permanently discontinue Whiskermon at any time, with or without notice. We are not liable for any loss of data or Virtual Goods resulting from planned or unplanned downtime.

We reserve the right to terminate or restrict your access to the Bot for any violation of these Terms. Banned accounts are not entitled to recovery of their catches, fishbones, or any other data.

10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms at any time. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Major changes may be announced in the official Whiskermon Discord server. Continued use of the Bot after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

If you disagree with a change, your only recourse is to stop using the Bot. The cats won't miss you. Actually, they will. They just won't show it.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of Whiskermon shall be resolved through good faith negotiation where possible.

12. No Third-Party IP Infringement Indemnity

Whiskermon does not provide, and expressly disclaims, any obligation to indemnify, defend, or hold harmless any user or third party against claims of intellectual property infringement — including but not limited to copyright, trademark, patent, or trade secret claims — arising from content you submit, share, or transmit through the Bot.

If your use of Whiskermon results in a third-party IP claim against you, that's on you. We are not your legal shield. We will not cover your legal fees, settlement costs, or damages. We do not warrant that any aspect of the Bot does not infringe third-party intellectual property rights, nor do we take on any liability for your own IP-related activities conducted through or in connection with the Bot.

To be abundantly clear: by using Whiskermon, you agree that we owe you exactly zero indemnification for any IP dispute you find yourself in. The cats are cursed, not licensed counsel.
