Terms of Service

Who We Are

Bahast is developed by FC TECH LABS, LLC, doing business as FC Tech Labs ("FC Tech Labs," "we," "us"). These terms apply to the Bahast game, this website, the Bahast wiki, press materials, test builds, community spaces we run, and support conversations with us (together, the "Services").

By using the Services, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

Steam And Other Platforms

Bahast is sold and delivered through Steam. Purchases, payments, refunds, account access, and game ownership are handled by Valve under the Steam Subscriber Agreement and Steam's refund policy. If these terms and a platform's terms conflict on a purchase or platform account matter, the platform's terms control. Community spaces hosted on Discord or other third-party services are also subject to those services' own terms.

Eligibility

You must be old enough to use the relevant platform and service under the laws where you live. If you are below the age of majority, you may use the Services only with the involvement of a parent or guardian who agrees to these terms.

Your License To Play

When you obtain Bahast, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and play the game for your own non-commercial entertainment, subject to these terms and the platform's terms. You do not buy the game's software or content itself; all rights not expressly granted remain with FC Tech Labs and its licensors.

Unless the law allows it despite this restriction, you may not copy, sell, rent, sublicense, or redistribute the game; reverse engineer, decompile, or extract its code or assets for redistribution; remove ownership notices; or use the game to build a competing product.

Save Files, Mods, And Tools

Bahast stores progress in local save files. You are responsible for your own saves and backups. Editing save files, using cheat tools, or running unofficial modifications is at your own risk and may cause crashes, lost progress, or broken saves that we cannot repair. We may decline support for issues caused by modified files or unofficial tools.

You may not distribute modified copies of the game, or tools or mods that include our code or assets, without our written permission.

Test Builds And Early Versions

Alpha, beta, playtest, and preview builds are unfinished. They may contain bugs, lose or reset progress, change significantly, or be withdrawn at any time. Unless we say otherwise, do not share, stream, or publish content from a private test build that we have marked as confidential.

Updates And Availability

We may update, change, rebalance, or remove game features, content, and website pages at any time, including to fix bugs, improve balance, or meet legal or platform requirements. Some updates may require a current version of the game. We do not promise that any particular feature, mode, or content will remain available.

Community Conduct

When you use our community spaces, submit feedback, or contact support, do not harass, threaten, or abuse others; post hateful, sexually explicit, or illegal content; impersonate FC Tech Labs, its staff, or other players; spam or advertise without permission; share other people's personal information; distribute malware or exploits; or try to disrupt or gain unauthorized access to the Services. We may remove content, mute, suspend, or ban users from spaces we moderate when we believe these rules have been broken.

Feedback And Content You Send

You keep ownership of screenshots, videos, bug reports, suggestions, and other content you send us. By sending it, you give FC Tech Labs a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use, copy, and adapt it to operate, support, and improve Bahast. If you send ideas or suggestions, we may use them without any obligation to you. Do not send content you do not have the right to share.

Videos, Streams, And Fan Content

You may stream Bahast and create videos, screenshots, guides, and fan works that show the game, including monetized videos and streams, as long as you do not suggest that FC Tech Labs endorses you, and you do not sell our art, music, or other assets on their own. Press and creators may use the materials in our press kit to cover Bahast. We may ask you to remove content that breaks these terms or misrepresents the game.

Our Content And Trademarks

The Bahast name, logo, game, art, music, text, wiki data, and website content belong to FC Tech Labs or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Except as described in these terms, you may not use them without our permission. Wiki pages are provided as a reference for players and may not match the current game exactly.

Third-Party Services

The Services link to or rely on services we do not control, such as Steam, Discord, and Google. We are not responsible for those services, their content, or their availability. How we handle personal information is described in our Privacy Notice.

Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not promise that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of data loss. Please review our Health & Safety information before playing.

Limitation Of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, FC Tech Labs will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or lost progress, arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Services is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for Bahast in the twelve months before the claim or USD $10.

Your Consumer Rights

Some places do not allow certain warranty exclusions or liability limits, so parts of the two sections above may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection laws that cannot be waived by contract, including rights in the European Union and the United Kingdom.

Ending Access

You may stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or end your access to our community spaces or support if you seriously or repeatedly break these terms. Sections that by their nature should survive, including those on ownership, disclaimers, and limitation of liability, continue to apply after access ends.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida and applicable United States federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute relating to these terms or the Services will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Orange County, Florida, and you and FC Tech Labs consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

If you live outside the United States, this section does not take away the protection of mandatory laws of your country of residence or your right to bring a claim in your local courts where that law gives you that right.

Changes To These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date above, and for significant changes we will give notice through this website, Steam, or our community channels. Continuing to use the Services after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.
