Terms
Plain rules for local software, optional relay access, and any paid usage credits.
These terms are effective July 19, 2026 between the user and DeviantData, 4123 Monterey Street, Los Angeles, CA 90065, United States.
Eligibility
Local-only use is available to all ages. An account, model relay, bring-your-own-key connection, or commerce feature requires age 13 or older. A user under the age of legal majority represents that a parent or legal guardian permits the use.
Local Software
No Rookies is provided for lawful chess play, analysis, import, replay, and export. Users remain responsible for their devices, browsers, chosen files, network access, and compliance with tournament, platform, employer, or school rules.
Model Relay
The relay is optional and may be unavailable, rate limited, suspended, or changed for security, abuse prevention, maintenance, provider availability, or legal reasons. Model output is not guaranteed to be legal, accurate, available, or strategically useful. The local chess authority rejects invalid moves.
Accounts And Security
Users must protect authentication credentials and promptly report suspected compromise. Automated abuse, credential sharing, bypassing limits, interfering with other users, probing secrets, and unlawful or harmful use are prohibited.
Payments And Credits
A non-renewing $5 purchase provides 5,000,000 non-expiring relay microcredits. Managed-provider requests consume estimated provider cost, calculated from provider-reported token usage and the versioned price table, plus a 30% service fee. This is not provider-invoice reconciliation. Bring-your-own-key requests consume only the 30% service fee because the provider charges the user separately. A separate one-time $79 purchase provides an account-bound, non-transferable lifetime waiver of the service fee; provider cost remains payable. The pack is prepaid balance, not a complete-match estimate or guarantee. Previously issued $10 lots retain their original 10,000,000-microcredit terms. Stripe hosts card checkout. Credits are service units, not money, cryptocurrency, a deposit, or transferable stored value.
Refunds And Disputes
Refund requests should be sent within 30 calendar days. Unused purchased credits qualify for a full refund to the original payment method. Partly used purchases qualify for a refund of the unused portion when the processor supports it. Duplicate or unauthorized charges and verified accounting defects are corrected regardless of ordinary usage status. Consumed credits are otherwise non-refundable. A full refund or reversal of the $79 waiver revokes that paid license. A payment dispute may freeze or reverse related unused credits but does not disable local-only functionality. Mandatory consumer rights control wherever they provide greater protection.
Termination And Deletion
Users may stop local use at any time and request relay-account deletion. Access may be suspended for material breach, fraud, security risk, nonpayment, or abuse. Required billing, tax, fraud, dispute, and security records may survive account deletion for their lawful retention period.
Service Changes
DeviantData may change or discontinue network functionality for security, provider, maintenance, legal, or abuse-prevention reasons. Material changes affecting paid use will receive reasonable notice when practicable. Purchased general-purpose credits and the lifetime waiver do not expire merely because these terms change.
Disclaimers And Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, No Rookies and its optional network services are provided “as is” and “as available,” without an implied promise of uninterrupted availability, model accuracy, or a particular chess result. DeviantData is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. Aggregate liability arising from No Rookies will not exceed the greater of $100 or the amount paid for No Rookies during the preceding 12 months. These limits do not apply where prohibited, including applicable liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, personal injury, or non-waivable consumer rights.
Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, a user is responsible for third-party claims caused by that user's unlawful use or material breach of these terms, excluding claims caused by DeviantData's negligence or misconduct.
Governing Law And Disputes
California law governs these terms, excluding conflict-of-law rules. Courts with jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California may hear a dispute, including an eligible small-claims case. A consumer may also use any forum or protection that applicable non-waivable law requires. Before filing, the parties should attempt good-faith resolution through the contact below without delaying a limitation period.
