Welcome to the well-known world of Legal Terms, with the very long texts that no-one is brave enough to read!
To help you to navigate, we organized the Legal Terms in sections, and we also introduced some explanations like this one:
This is not part of the Legal terms, but is here to explain something with words you can understand ;)

Privacy policy
To create an account, you need to provide an email, a username and a password. You may also complete your player profile with some other data, and data is generated by your use of the service.
This data is stored and processed for the purpose of providing the BGA service:
_ We are using cookies (see below), otherwise you would need to choose a language and enter your password each time you browse a page on BGA.
_ Your password is stored encrypted, but the usual precautionary measures apply. You should use a strong password and not use the same one that you use for any other sensitive website (or any other website, if you want to be particularly cautious).
_ Chat discussions are stored during a maximum of 11 weeks, for moderation purposes. Moderators - who are other players we selected among the community - may have access to any chat discussions from the past 11 weeks, which is necessary as 80% of the moderation actions relate to insults or aggressive behavior in the chat. If you are worried about this, we remind you to consider that all your chat discussions on BGA are public.
_ We don't share or sell your data with third parties without your consent. Your consent may be implicit in some obvious cases (such as if you take part in a contest with prizes from a publisher, as some information will be needed for the publisher to contact you to redeem the prize).
_ Your profile information is visible to other players, as well as your gaming history on the website. So, since anyone can create an account on the site, it should be considered public information. If you use a pseudonym for your username, it could help to keep your real identity private (in case you would be worried about that).
_ For administration, moderation, improvement of the BGA service and technical purposes, complementary data can be collected from technical sources (browsers, networks, etc.) and cross referenced with publicly or commercially available datasources.
_ Automated processing is used for the purpose of providing a personalized service (such as suggesting games the user might like, or personalized communication). No further automated decision making or profiling specific to the user is undertaken beyond this scope.
_ This data is stored and processed as long as you keep an account on the service. Upon deletion of your account, data directly linked to your identity is deleted. Remaining data necessary for maintaining the service for other users is thus disjointed from your identity while maintaining the rights of other users to data that is collectively created.
_ You can exercise your rights about your data by sending us a request in writing through our contact page.
We hope that all of this sounds reasonable to you, and that you can now enjoy Board Game Arena without second thoughts!

Pour utiliser votre abonnement Premium, vous avez besoin d'un accès Internet, d'un terminal compatible avec BGA, et de nous fournir un moyen de paiment valide. "Moyen de paiement valide" signifie un moyen de paiement courant, valide et accepté par notre service, qui doit éventuellement être mis à jour de temps en temps, et qui peut nécessiter le recours à un service tiers. Tant que vous n'annulez pas votre abonnement avant la fin de votre période de facturation actuelle, vous nous autorisez à prélever le prix d'abonnement de la période suivante en utilisant votre moyen de paiment (voir "annulation" ci-dessous).

Dans certains cas, votre jour de paiement peut être modifiée, par exemple si votre moyen de paiement n'a temporairement pas pu être prelevé ou bien si votre abonnement a débuté un jour qui n'existe pas dans le mois courant. 100% du prix de chaque période est facturé au début de chaque période (ex: une fois par an pour l'abonnement "annuel").
Article L215-1 du code de la consommation:
Pour les contrats de prestations de services conclus pour une durée déterminée avec une clause de reconduction tacite, le professionnel prestataire de services informe le consommateur par écrit, par lettre nominative ou courrier électronique dédiés, au plus tôt trois mois et au plus tard un mois avant le terme de la période autorisant le rejet de la reconduction, de la possibilité de ne pas reconduire le contrat qu'il a conclu avec une clause de reconduction tacite. Cette information, délivrée dans des termes clairs et compréhensibles, mentionne, dans un encadré apparent, la date limite de non-reconduction.
Lorsque cette information ne lui a pas été adressée conformément aux dispositions du premier alinéa, le consommateur peut mettre gratuitement un terme au contrat, à tout moment à compter de la date de reconduction.
Les avances effectuées après la dernière date de reconduction ou, s'agissant des contrats à durée indéterminée, après la date de transformation du contrat initial à durée déterminée, sont dans ce cas remboursées dans un délai de trente jours à compter de la date de résiliation, déduction faite des sommes correspondant, jusqu'à celle-ci, à l'exécution du contrat.
Les dispositions du présent article s'appliquent sans préjudice de celles qui soumettent légalement certains contrats à des règles particulières en ce qui concerne l'information du consommateur.
Article L215-3
Les dispositions du présent chapitre sont également applicables aux contrats conclus entre des professionnels et des non-professionnels.
Article L241-3
Lorsque le professionnel n'a pas procédé au remboursement dans les conditions prévues à l'article L. 215-1, les sommes dues sont productives d'intérêts au taux légal.
2.2. Méthodes de paiement: Pour obtenir un abonnement BGA, vous devez fournir un ou plusieurs moyen de paiement. Vous pouvez mettre à jour vos moyens de paiment en allant sur la page "Premium". Nous pouvons aussi mettre à jour vos informations de paiement en utilisant des informations fournies par nos fournisseurs de services de paiements. Après ces mises à jour, vous nous autorisez à continuer à prélever les moyens de paiments correspondants. Vous nous autorisez à prélevez n'importe lequel des moyens de paiement que vous avez spécifié si votre moyen de paiement principal n'est plus disponible pour le paiement du prix de votre abonnement. Vous restez redevable de tous les montants non collectés. Si un paiement échoue en raison d'une date d'expiration, de fonds insuffisants ou autre, et si vous ne suspendez pas votre abonnement, nous pouvons suspendre votre accès au service Premium tant que nous n'avons pas réussi à prélevez votre moyen de paiement. Pour certains moyens de paiement, l'emetteur du moyen de paiement peut vous facturer certains frais, tels que des frais de change ou d'autres frais relatifs au fonctionnement de votre méthode de paiement. Des taxes locales peuvent varier en fonction de la méthode de paiement utilisée. Merci de prendre contact avec l'émetteur de votre moyen de paiement pour plus de détails.
2.3. Annulation. Vous pouvez annuler votre abonnement Premium BGA à n'importe quel moment, et vous pouvez continuez à avoir accès au service BGA Premium jusqu'à la fin de votre période de facturation. Dans la mesure de ce qui est autorisé par la loi, les paiements sont non-remboursables et nous n'effectuons pas de remboursements ou de crédits sur les périodes d'abonnements partiellement utilisées, en raison de problèmes techniques ou en raison de décision liés à la modération du service. Pour annuler votre abonnement, allez sur la page "Premium" et suivez les instructions pour l'annulation. Si vous annulez votre abonnement, votre compte sera automatiquement basculé vers un compte "Gratuit" standard à la fin de votre période courante de facturation. Pour voir quand votre compte sera basculé vers un compte standard, cliquez sur "Voir mon profil" dans le menu utilisateur en haut à droite, puis regardez l'information "Premium jusqu'à -date-".

Nous pouvons modifier les abonnements disponibles et les prix de notre service de temps en temps; cependant, toute modification du prix de nos abonnements ne pourra vous être appliqué avant une période de 30 jours suivant une information qui vous sera envoyée.
2.5. Rétractation: en application de la loi Française (L.221-18 du code de la consommation), tout abonnement BGA Premium souscrit par un client Français peut être remboursé sans retenue durant une période de 14 jours qui suit le paiement initial, sur simple demande à "contact@boardgamearena.com".
