Terms of Use

1. Purpose

These terms govern the use of Stratilead, a web-based business simulation game played in class or solo: creating and running sessions, taking part in a game, creating and sharing scenarios.

2. Access to the service and accounts

• Players can take part in a game without an account, using the game code and a nickname.
• An account is required to create sessions, classes and scenarios. Sign-in uses a Google or Microsoft account.
• Account registration is limited to people aged at least 15. The service is intended for higher education and adult training.
• Users accept the version of the terms in force when they register, then at each update.

3. Facilitators, players, creators

The facilitator creates and runs their sessions; they are responsible for how the sessions unfold and for the instructions given to participants. The player makes the decisions for their company, alone or in a team. The creator publishes scenarios under their own responsibility and under the license of their choice.

Respective responsibilities of the publisher, institutions and facilitators.

4. Rules of use

• Choose appropriate nicknames and company names; do not impersonate anyone.
• Do not enter third parties’ personal data in names, messages or scenarios.
• Do not disrupt a session or attempt to bypass the platform’s protections.

Nicknames and names that break these rules may be rejected or changed; the facilitator can remove a participant from their session.

5. Published scenarios and content

Scenarios published in the catalog are reviewed by moderators. Any content can be reported at any time; content that breaches these terms may be removed. Reviews are reserved for facilitators who have played the scenario in a session.

License granted to the publisher on published content, takedown and appeal procedure.

6. Free access and changes to the service

The service is free during the launch phase. Paid offers (institution licenses, paid scenarios) may be introduced; their terms will be published before they take effect.

7. Availability and liability

Availability commitments, maintenance, limitation of liability, educational nature of the results (a simulation is not management advice).

8. Personal data

The processing of personal data is described in the privacy policy.

9. Changes to the terms

Each version of the terms carries a version date. When they change, the new version is presented to users, who must accept it to keep using their account.

10. Governing law

Governing law, competent jurisdiction, mediation.
