The Website provides a marketplace for registered Users to acquire, hold, and exchange Collectibles (collectively "Services") through the Website.
All personal data of Users is stored and processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Depending on how Users interact with the Website, additional terms may apply ("Supplementary Terms"), including:

- Brand Guidelines, if you use any FanYield trademarks or branding.
FanYield has created a Help Center on the Website, where Users can find guides and informative articles ("Help Center"). These materials are for informational purposes only and are not legally binding. You are encouraged to review them or contact us through the Help Center for any questions.
