Terms of Service

These terms apply to all users of Trainer Field Guide, including visitors who browse without an account and registered users who have created an account.

Trainer Field Guide is operated by Brown Hammer Studios.

You must be at least 13 years old to create an account, or have verified parental or guardian consent if you are under 13. By creating an account you confirm that you meet this requirement or that a parent or guardian has provided consent on your behalf.

You are responsible for:

• Keeping your login credentials secure
• All activity that occurs under your account
• Choosing a username that does not impersonate another person, use offensive language, or violate these terms

You must notify us immediately if you believe your account has been compromised. Contact us here.

You may use Trainer Field Guide to browse Pokémon data, track your collection, and connect with other trainers.

You may not:

• Harass, threaten, impersonate, or harm other users
• Upload content that is offensive, explicit, or inappropriate
• Attempt to circumvent age verification, parental consent mechanisms, or account restrictions
• Use automated tools, bots, or scrapers to access the platform without prior written permission
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the platform
• Use the platform for any commercial purpose without prior written permission

You retain ownership of content you upload to the platform, including profile pictures and bio text.

By uploading content, you grant Trainer Field Guide a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to display that content on the platform for as long as your account is active or until you remove the content.

You are responsible for ensuring that content you upload:

• Does not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third party
• Does not contain offensive, explicit, or harmful material
• Does not include the personal information of others without their consent

We reserve the right to remove any content that violates these terms or our community standards, without prior notice.

Users may report usernames and profile pictures that violate community standards. Reports are reviewed and actioned according to our moderation policy. Abuse of the reporting system — including filing false reports to target specific users — may result in account suspension.

You may delete your account at any time from the Settings page.

We reserve the right to suspend or permanently terminate accounts that:

• Violate these terms
• Engage in abusive behaviour toward other users
• Attempt to circumvent platform restrictions
• Are found to be operating automated or bot activity

In serious cases, termination may occur without prior notice.

Trainer Field Guide is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Brown Hammer Studios shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use the platform, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

We may update these terms from time to time. We will notify registered users of significant changes via email. Continued use of the platform after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
