Legal
Terms and Conditions
Counsel-review draft
This document is a structured draft, not a finalised policy. It has not been reviewed by qualified counsel and the operating entity and governing jurisdiction have not been selected. It is published so applicants can see the substance of what will govern them, not because it is final.
These terms govern your use of this website, your OFC membership, and anything you buy from us. Please read them. Where a section is hard going, there is a plain-language summary beside it — that summary helps you understand, but the numbered text is what binds.
1. Who we are and what these terms cover
This website is operated by MIDIOS MEDIA GROUP LLC (“OFC”, “we”, “us”). These Terms and Conditions apply to your use of the site, to any OFC membership account you create, and to any product or service we make available. By using the site or creating an account, you agree to them.
Additional terms apply to specific activities and are incorporated by reference where relevant: the Privacy Policy, the Preorder and Campaign Terms, the Refund Policy, the Marketplace Rules, the Digital Certificate Terms, and the Community Guidelines.
2. Eligibility and your account
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or buy from us. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you give us, for keeping your credentials secure, and for activity under your account.
We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, that is used to impersonate another person, or that is used for unlawful activity. Where we do, we will tell you the reason and, where the issue can be fixed, give you a reasonable chance to fix it.
3. What OFC products are — and are not
OFC sells physical collectible trading cards and related products. These are consumer goods. They are not investments, securities, or financial instruments of any kind.
We do not promise, project, or guarantee that any product will retain value, increase in value, be resellable, or produce any financial return. Any market information we publish describes reported activity on our own platform and is not an appraisal, a valuation, or a prediction. You should buy an OFC product because you want the product.
In plain terms
Cards are things you buy because you want them. They are not investments. We will never tell you a card will go up in value, and we do not let creators say it either.
Summary only. The numbered text is what binds.
4. Odds, edition limits, and disclosure
Where a product contains a chance-based element, we publish the odds for every tier before sale, and those odds sum to 100%. Where a product belongs to a limited edition, we publish the edition cap before sale and record it in our circulation ledger.
We do not increase a sealed edition cap without the creator's written approval and authorisation by two OFC officers, and any such increase is recorded publicly with its date and size. Reprints, where approved, are visibly distinguishable from the original edition and are labelled as reprints.
In plain terms
We publish the chances and the print limits before you buy, and we cannot quietly print more later.
Summary only. The numbered text is what binds.
5. Orders, pricing, and availability
An order is an offer to buy. Our acceptance happens when we confirm dispatch, or when we expressly accept it. We may decline an order, including where a product is mispriced, unavailable, or where we cannot lawfully ship to your location.
Prices are shown inclusive or exclusive of tax as indicated at checkout. Shipping costs and delivery estimates are shown before you pay.
6. Preorders and campaigns
Where a product is offered as a preorder or as part of a funding campaign, we show the date by which we expect to ship before you pay, and you must acknowledge it separately. If we cannot ship by that date, we will notify you and offer you the choice of a revised date or a full refund. Every paid campaign tier includes a defined item you are certain to receive; chance-based elements are an addition to that, never a substitute for it.
In plain terms
If we say a date and miss it, we tell you and you can get your money back. Every paid tier includes something you are guaranteed to receive.
Summary only. The numbered text is what binds.
7. Refunds, damage, and non-delivery
Our Refund Policy sets out how to return an item, what happens if an item arrives damaged, and what happens if it does not arrive. Nothing in these terms limits any statutory right you have as a consumer in your jurisdiction.
8. Digital certificates
Some products may include an optional digital certificate linked to a physical card. A digital certificate is a record of authenticity, provenance, and access. It is not a security, not a share in OFC or in any creator, not a claim on revenue, and not a promise of value. Full terms are in the Digital Certificate Terms.
9. Your conduct
You agree not to: create false demand, place or coordinate transactions intended to mislead others about price or demand, use undisclosed accounts to buy or trade cards you are connected to, misrepresent an item you list, or attempt to interfere with the integrity of our circulation records.
You also agree not to state or imply to others that OFC products are investments or will increase in value.
10. Intellectual property
The site, our software, our brand, and our card designs as compiled are owned by OFC or licensed to us. Creators retain ownership of their own name, image, likeness, and content; OFC holds only the limited licence needed to produce and sell the collections a creator has approved.
Buying a card gives you ownership of that physical object. It does not transfer any intellectual property rights in the artwork, the creator's likeness, or our brand, and does not permit commercial reproduction.
11. Rights complaints and takedown
If you believe material on this site infringes your rights, contact us with enough detail to identify the material and your claim. We operate a notice-and-counter-notice process and will act on credible claims, including by suspending sale of the affected item while we investigate.
12. Availability of the site
We aim to keep the site available but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may change, suspend, or withdraw features. Where a change materially affects something you have already paid for, we will tell you and offer an appropriate remedy.
13. Limitation of liability
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded. Subject to that, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss, and our total liability in connection with any product is limited to [the amount you paid for it].
We do not attempt to exclude liability we cannot lawfully exclude, and any part of this section that is unenforceable does not affect the rest.
In plain terms
There are limits on what we are responsible for — but we do not try to escape responsibility for the serious things, and we cannot lawfully do so anyway.
Summary only. The numbered text is what binds.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The version and effective date are shown at the top of this page, and previous versions remain available. Where a change is material, we will notify affected account holders and state in one sentence what changed. Continued use after a change takes effect means you accept it.
15. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of [STATE]. Disputes are subject to [FORUM]. Before starting any formal process, we ask that you contact us so we can try to resolve the matter directly — most things are fixable that way.
