Responsible Use Statement 18+ Adults Only

Rational Participation · Lawful Use · Self‑Regulation

The 2026 World Cup Prediction Platform (“Platform”) is dedicated to providing professional, transparent, and scientific predictive tools for football data enthusiasts. The Platform strictly complies with all applicable laws and regulations and encourages all users to follow responsible use principles. This Statement clarifies the Platform’s position regarding age restrictions, rational participation, and prohibited conduct.

1. Age Limit & Eligibility

Important: This Platform is open only to users aged 18 or older.

1.1 Legal Age Requirement
In accordance with the laws of the People’s Republic of China and international standards, the Platform may be accessed and used only by individuals who are at least 18 years old (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction). If you are under 18, you must immediately stop using the Platform.

1.2 Right to Verify Age
The Platform reserves the right to require proof of age when necessary. If we discover that a user has concealed their true age or is under 18, the Platform may immediately terminate the user’s account access and delete related data without liability.

1.3 Parental Responsibility
Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising and preventing minors from using the Platform. If a minor uses the Platform due to a failure of supervision, the parent or guardian shall bear full legal responsibility.

2. Principles of Responsible Use

2.1 View Predictions Rationally
All probability simulations, predicted scores, and advancement odds provided by the Platform are algorithmic projections based on historical data and do not represent actual match results. Users should engage with Platform information rationally and objectively, avoiding over‑reliance on predictions or the illusion of “certain wins”.

2.2 No Addictive Behaviour
The Platform strongly opposes any form of addictive or compulsive usage. We recommend:

  • ▪ Set reasonable time limits and frequency, avoiding extended continuous browsing;
  • ▪ Maintain a healthy work‑life balance and adequate rest;
  • ▪ If you find you cannot control your use of the Platform, stop immediately and seek professional help.

2.3 Personal Financial Management
The Platform does not involve any real‑money transactions and strongly advises users to maintain strict budget discipline in all football data research. Never use essential living funds for any form of prediction activities, and never attempt to “recover losses” or “chase profits” based on Platform outputs.

3. Prohibited Conduct

When using the Platform, users are strictly forbidden from engaging in the following activities:

  • ▪ Using Platform data or predictions for any form of real‑money gambling, illegal betting, or underground money transfers;
  • ▪ Using the Platform while under the age of 18 or impersonating another person to bypass age restrictions;
  • ▪ Using the Platform to publish, disseminate, or induce others to participate in illegal gambling information;
  • ▪ Maliciously attacking the Platform, scraping data, reverse engineering, or disrupting normal operations;
  • ▪ Spreading false claims such as “guaranteed wins” or “safe profits”, or using the Platform’s name to commit fraud;
  • ▪ Any form of self‑harm, compulsive behaviour, or excessive use that negatively affects others.

Users who violate these prohibitions may have their accounts suspended without notice, and the Platform reserves the right to report such conduct to the relevant authorities.

4. Guidelines for Rational Use

We encourage users to follow these best practices to ensure a healthy, positive experience on the Platform:

  • Treat the Platform as a research tool: Focus on model logic, tactical analysis, and team data rather than blindly chasing probabilities;
  • Set boundaries: Establish daily time limits for using the Platform and use built‑in device time‑management features;
  • Accept uncertainty: Football matches are inherently unpredictable; predictive models cannot account for red cards, injuries, refereeing decisions, etc.;
  • Engage in healthy alternatives: Substitute prolonged data browsing with watching matches, playing sports, or discussing tactics with friends;
  • Conduct regular self‑assessments: Reflect on whether your usage is affecting your work, studies, or relationships.

5. Getting Help — If You or Someone You Care About Needs Assistance

If you or someone close to you shows signs such as inability to control usage time, financial pressure due to Platform use, neglect of social or family responsibilities, or anxiety/depression, please stop using the Platform immediately and seek professional support.
