If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you may not play on any of the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds.

 

A. Rules of Conduct:

 

Each of the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds may have specific rules regarding how to play the games and interact on the particular site, but all the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds share certain core principles regarding appropriate behavior. These Rules of Conduct are those shared principles.

 

1. Play Safely: The best safety policy is to follow your parents' rules regarding playing online. We also have safety guides on each of the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds and you should read those guides.

 

2. Do Not Try To Share Personal Information. Please do not try to share with anyone your personally identifiable information such as your e-mail address, physical address, school name, last name, photographs of yourself, instant messenger username or telephone number. Likewise, do not ask for any such information from other users. If you think anything is suspicious, make sure to report it [email protected]

 

3. Respect The Community: Remember, many different people enjoy playing on the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds. In order that everyone continues to enjoy the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds, it is important that everything you post or send through the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds is family friendly. That means you should not attempt to post any of the following:

 

profanity, obscenities ("swear words") or sexual content (express or implied).

attacks, comments, or opinions about other people or things that slander, defame, threaten, insult or harass another person.

information that might identify another player

other information that we deem, in its sole discretion, to be inappropriate for this site.

4. Other Players Also Enjoy The Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds: If you see something you don't like, remember that all the stuff on the message boards, chat rooms and other communication areas comes straight from other players, not from us. We wouldn't tell kids what to say, because kids have minds of their own! But if someone sends ugly messages, we'll do our best to take care of it. We all want the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds to be good, clean places to hang out.

 

5. Playing The Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds Is Not A Way To Make Money : As a guest you do not own the accounts, activities, items, virtual currency, characters, locations, games and avatars on the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds; they are for you to play with while on the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds. Except as permitted by the functionality of the respective Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds, you can't sell anything for real money. This means that you cannot try to make money off the virtual items or currency in your account or even sell the time it took you to collect such items. If we find someone selling virtual items or currency, we will freeze every account controlled by that player and every account of the player who purchased such virtual currency or items.

It's even ok to put it in an advertisement. It means we can use it in any way we want, anywhere, until the end of time. And wouldn't it be cool if we used something YOU said until the end of time?

 

8. Inactivity. We work very hard at making the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds fun and enjoyable for everyone because we want you to stay active. However, if you choose to stop playing on the Nickelodeon Virtual Worlds, we reserve the right to permanently erase your account and everything associated with your account including items or privileges that may have been licensed through the payment of money to us or our licensing partners. Currently, our policy is to terminate any account that has not been active for eighteen months.

We may, in appropriate circumstances and at out discretion, terminate the accounts of players who infringe the intellectual property rights of others.
