Terms of Service
Last updated: May 11, 2026
Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Service form a binding agreement between you (whether you are an operator minting sessions, a player running the agent, or a visitor browsing the site) and Cloverfield. By creating an account, minting a session code, downloading or executing cloverfield.exe, viewing a generated report, or otherwise interacting with the service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to every section below. If you do not agree, you must stop using the service immediately. Continued use after a change to these terms constitutes acceptance of the updated version.
What Cloverfield is — and isn't
Cloverfield is a remote forensic scanning tool for Windows PCs used in competitive gaming. Operators mint a six-digit session code from their dashboard. The player downloads cloverfield.exe, pastes the code, and the agent collects forensic artifacts (filesystem metadata, registry, prefetch, loaded modules, pagefile signatures, known cleaner traces). The agent then uploads a structured report to the operator's session. Cloverfield is not a live anti-cheat. It does not run continuously, does not block cheats from executing, and does not interact with games at runtime. It is a forensic post-event tool, not a prevention tool.
Eligibility, accounts and credentials
You must be at least 13 years old to use Cloverfield, and at least 18 (or the age of legal majority where you live) to maintain a paid account. Operator accounts are personal — you may not share your login credentials, transfer your account, or let another person mint sessions on your behalf without our written permission. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for every action taken through your account, including by anyone you allow to access it. Notify us immediately at security@cloverfield.app if you believe your account has been compromised.
Player consent and lawful use
Operators are solely responsible for obtaining clear, informed, and ideally written consent from any player before requesting they run the agent. The player must voluntarily download and execute cloverfield.exe themselves on a machine they own or have authority over. You must not coerce, deceive, or pressure a player into running the agent, and you must not use Cloverfield against any system without the system owner's explicit permission. Unauthorized access to a computer system may violate computer-misuse, anti-hacking, wiretap, and privacy laws in your jurisdiction (including the US CFAA, the UK Computer Misuse Act, and the EU NIS2 framework). We are not your lawyer and these terms are not legal advice; if you are unsure whether your intended use is lawful, get advice before you scan.
Acceptable use
You agree not to: (a) reverse engineer, decompile, repack, or redistribute the agent or any part of the service; (b) tamper with, bypass, or attempt to falsify reports, signatures, or hashes; (c) use the service to harass, dox, blackmail, extort, defame, or threaten any person; (d) selectively edit, redact, or misrepresent reports to a third party in a way that is materially misleading; (e) use Cloverfield to scan systems unrelated to a competitive gaming context for which you have a legitimate, consented purpose; (f) use the service to violate any law, regulation, or third-party right; (g) attempt to overload, probe, scan, or test the security of our infrastructure without prior written permission; or (h) build a competing product using data, designs, or know-how derived from the service.
Reports, findings and decisions
Reports describe forensic artifacts as observed by the agent at the moment of the scan. Findings may include suspicious files, suspicious behaviour, anti-forensic tooling, or known cleaner signatures. A report is evidence — it is not a verdict. Cloverfield does not issue bans, sanctions, prize forfeitures, or rulings on your behalf. Any decision you take based on a report (including bans, ineligibility rulings, public statements, or sponsorship action) is your decision and your responsibility. You agree to apply due process appropriate to your league, tournament, or organization, including giving the player a meaningful opportunity to respond before a permanent decision is made.
Subscriptions, billing and refunds
Some features require a paid plan. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. Prices, plan tiers, and included session limits are listed on the pricing page and may change with notice. You authorize us to charge your payment method on each renewal. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period — you keep access until then. Except where required by law, fees are non-refundable, and partially used periods are not refunded. Taxes are your responsibility unless we are required to collect them.
Intellectual property
Cloverfield, including the agent, the dashboard, the report format, the site design, the brand, and all underlying code, is owned by us and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the service in accordance with these terms. You retain ownership of the content you submit (e.g. session notes, custom labels), but you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, process, and display that content as needed to operate the service. You may not use our name, logo, or branding without prior written permission, except for factual statements that you use Cloverfield.
Third-party services
The service may rely on third-party infrastructure (hosting, storage, authentication, email, payment processing). We are not responsible for the availability, security, or behaviour of those third parties beyond our reasonable control, and your use of any linked third-party service is governed by its own terms.
Disclaimer of warranties
The service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. We do not warrant that the agent will detect every cheat, that reports will be free of false positives or false negatives, that the service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that any defect will be corrected. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Cloverfield, its affiliates, and its personnel are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, including (without limitation) lost prize pools, lost sponsorships, lost revenue, lost goodwill, reputational harm, or competitive disadvantage, arising out of or related to your use of the service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our aggregate liability for any direct damages is capped at the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred US dollars.
Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cloverfield, its affiliates, and its personnel from any claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of: (a) your use of the service, (b) your breach of these terms, (c) your violation of any law or third-party right (including a player's right to consent or to privacy), or (d) any decision you make based on a report.
Suspension and termination
We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, including for violation of these terms, suspected fraud or abuse, risk to the service or other users, or legal compulsion. You may stop using the service at any time and may close your account from your dashboard. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15) will survive.
Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Cloverfield is established, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of these terms or your use of the service will first be addressed in good faith between us; if not resolved within 30 days, it will be brought exclusively in the courts of that jurisdiction. Nothing in this section limits your statutory consumer rights where they apply.
Changes to the service and to these terms
We may change, add, or remove features at any time, including for security, legal, or operational reasons. We may also update these terms; when we do, we will revise the date below and, for material changes, attempt to give reasonable advance notice in-product or by email. If you do not agree to a change, your only remedy is to stop using the service.
Miscellaneous
These terms (together with our Privacy Policy and any plan-specific terms) are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the service. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of that right. You may not assign these terms; we may assign them in connection with a corporate event such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
