49Skins Terms of Use

1. Scope, Subject Matter of the Agreement, and General Provisions

1.1 These terms of use apply to all contracts and services between 49Skins GmbH (hereinafter referred to as "49Skins" or "Provider") and users (hereinafter referred to as "Users") of the 49Skins platform (https://49skins.com). They regulate the use of the platform for trading virtual items (e.g., skins, weapons, or other digital game-related items) from the game Counter-Strike 2 (CS2).

1.2 49Skins only provides the technical infrastructure for trading and does not act as a contracting party. Contracts for the trading of virtual items are exclusively concluded between users (buyers and sellers).

1.3 Contradictory terms and conditions of users do not apply unless 49Skins explicitly agrees to their validity in writing.

1.4 All copyrights and trademarks related to the game Counter-Strike 2 and the Steam platform belong to Valve Corporation or their respective rights holders. 49Skins has no connection with Valve Corporation and is not supported or operated by it in any way.

2. Description of Services

2.1 49Skins offers an online platform where users can list and purchase virtual items (e.g., skins, weapons, and other digital items) from their Steam account for sale. Sellers set the prices for their items, and buyers can add them to their shopping cart. This allows purchase agreements for virtual items to be concluded between users through the online platform.

2.2 The use of the platform requires the linking of a Steam account.

2.3 49Skins does not offer subscriptions or additional fee models. There are only transaction fees for the use of the platform.

3 Registration, user account and data protection

3.1 Registration takes place by linking a Steam account to the platform. Each user may only create one account; the opening of multiple accounts is prohibited.

3.2 49Skins reserves the right to suspend or terminate user accounts if these Terms of Use or applicable law are violated.

3.3 49Skins also reserves the right to carry out an identity check, in particular with regard to compliance with the provisions of the German Money Laundering Act (GwG) and fraud prevention.

3.4 The collection, storage and processing of personal data is carried out in accordance with 49Skins' privacy policy and the provisions of the GDPR and the BDSG.

4 Fees and payment processing

4.1 49Skins charges a transaction fee for each transaction on the platform. The amount of the transaction fee results from the 49Skin price list and is displayed on the platform.

4.2 The fee is due upon conclusion of the purchase contract between buyer and seller and is not waived in the event of default or reversal of the purchase contract.

4.3 Payment processing is carried out via the service provider Stripe Payments Europe, Limited (SPEL), 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, D02 H210 Dublin, Ireland (“Stripe”) Users instruct 49Skins to monitor payment processing via Stripe and to transmit the transaction status to Stripe. Fees (“Stripe fee”) are charged for the use of Stripe, which are offset directly against the purchase price by Stripe.

5 Conclusion of contract and transaction processing

5.1 The purchase contract for the acquisition of virtual items is concluded exclusively between the buyer and the seller. 49Skins acts neither as buyer nor as seller, but merely provides the platform.

5.2 Sellers assure that they are the legal owners of the virtual items offered for sale and that their sale does not violate the rights of third parties.

5.3 Buyers and sellers are obliged to fulfill all legal and contractual information obligations. Any disputes or claims in connection with the Virtual Items shall be settled exclusively between the Buyer and the Seller.

5.4 The virtual items of the seller will be transferred by the seller to 49Skins and held in trust by 49Skins via the platform. The seller irrevocably instructs 49Skins to transfer the virtual item to the buyer as soon as the payment has been successfully processed. The transfer of the Virtual Item shall take place automatically upon receipt of confirmation from Stripe that the payment has been successfully completed. The seller shall then receive the purchase price from Stripe less the transaction fee in accordance with section 4.1 and the Stripe fee in accordance with section 4.3.

6 Liability

6.1 49Skins is liable for intent and gross negligence. 49Skins shall only be liable for simple negligence in the event of a breach of a material contractual obligation (cardinal obligation). In this case the liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract.

6.2 49Skins is not liable for the quality, condition, functionality or authenticity of the virtual items traded. This responsibility lies exclusively with the contractual partners (buyer and seller).

6.3 49Skins is not liable for any deficiencies or defects in the relationship between buyers and sellers. These are to be clarified directly between the contractual partners.

6.4 49Skins is not liable for damages caused by misuse of the user's Steam account or by technical problems on the part of the Steam platform.
