We, the folks at Zero to Heroes, are the creators of zerotoheroes.com, and firestoneapp.com, (each individually referred to as a “Site”) and the Firestone application and Twitch extension (referred to as “a” or “the Service” or “Services”). We hope that you like our projects. We want you to use them! However, to ensure your safety and ours, there are limitations on how you may use these Services. These limitations are the Terms of Service.

These Terms of Service (“Terms”), which include and hereby incorporate the Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”), are a legal agreement between Zero to Heroes, and its related companies and affiliates (the “Company”, "Zero to Heroes" or “we”) and you (“you”). By using or accessing the Service, or any other websites, APIs, applications, or services offered by the Company, which are collectively referred to as the “Service,” you agree (i) that you are 13 years of age or older, (ii) if you are the age of majority in your jurisdiction or over, that you have read, understood, and accept to be bound by the Terms, and (iii) if you are between 13 and the age of majority in your jurisdiction, that your legal guardian has reviewed and agrees to these Terms.
The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or revise these Terms at any time, and you agree to be bound by such modifications or revisions. Any such change or modification will be effective immediately upon posting on the Service, and your continued use of the Service after any changes or modifications to these Terms are posted will constitute your acceptance of, and agreement to, such changes or modifications. If you object to any change or modification, your sole recourse shall be to cease using the Service.
Please read these Terms carefully before accessing or using our Services. By accessing or using any part of our Services, you agree to become bound by the Terms set forth herein. If you do not agree to all the terms and conditions of this agreement, then you may not access or use the Service.
The Service provides online and desktop platforms designed to facilitate the online gaming community and eSports ecosystem. The Service may allow you generate, create, or upload your own original content as well as content and data produced by playing and interacting with the games we support on our platform. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Company grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to use and access the Service, solely for your personal, non-commercial use.
You agree not to (and not to attempt to) (i) use the Service for any use or purpose other than as expressly permitted by these Terms, (ii) access any and all non API based services in a manner that sends more request messages to the Service’s servers in a given period of time than a human can reasonably produce in the same period by using a conventional on-line web browser, or (ii) copy, adapt, modify, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, license, sell, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform, transmit, stream, broadcast or otherwise exploit the Service or any portion of the Service, except as expressly permitted in these Terms. No licenses or rights are granted to you by implication or otherwise under any intellectual property rights owned or controlled by the Company or its licensors, except for the permissions and rights expressly granted in these Terms.
The Company reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to keep the Service online and available, however it makes no guarantees of uptime or reliability. The Company reserves the right to refuse any user access to the Services without notice for any reason or no reason, including, but not limited to, a violation of the Terms.
If you violate these Terms, the Company reserves the right to issue you a warning regarding the violation or immediately terminate or suspend any or all accounts you have created using the Service. You agree that the Company need not provide you notice before terminating or suspending your account(s), but the Company may do so in its sole discretion.
Use of some of our Services requires an account. You agree that any and all personal information you provide to us is complete and accurate, both at the time of registration and during continued use of our Services. You will be solely responsible and liable for any activity that occurs on your account and/or under your username. You are responsible for keeping your account secure; including, but not limited to, your password should you choose to set one. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account, and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account. You must immediately notify us of any unauthorized uses of your account, by e-mailing us at [email protected]. Zero to Heroes will not be liable for any acts or omissions by you, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions.
If you upload or submit any data or information automatically made available by a game client, for example but not limited to, logs, a card collection, a deck composition, in-game economic information (e.g. arcane dust, gold, gems, etc.), item collections and configurations, and/or any data point that you may encounter within the game client (“Gameplay Related Data”) and/or user generated content (“Content”) such as a forum comment, article, image, video stream, link, or guide, or otherwise make (or allow any third party or third party application to make) material available to the Service, you are entirely responsible for the content of, and any harm resulting from, that Content. That is the case regardless of what form or media the Content takes, which includes, but is not limited to text, photo, video, audio, structured and unstructured data formats, or code. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that your Content and conduct do not violate these terms.
If you delete Content, Zero to Heroes will use reasonable efforts to remove it from the Service, but you acknowledge that caching or references to the Content may not be made immediately unavailable.
Without limiting any of those representations or warranties, Zero to Heroes has the right (though not the obligation) to, in our sole discretion, (i) reclaim your username due to prolonged inactivity, (ii) remove or permanently delete any or all of your Gameplay Related Data and/or Content with or without notice for any reason or no reason, (iii) refuse or remove any Content that, in our sole discretion, violates any Zero to Heroes policy or is in any way harmful or objectionable, or (iv) terminate or deny access to the Service to any individual or entity for any reason or no reason. Zero to Heroes will have no obligation to provide a refund of any amounts previously paid.
Zero to Heroes has not reviewed, and cannot review, all of the material, including computer software, posted to our Services, and cannot therefore be responsible for that material’s content, use or effects. By operating our Services, Zero to Heroes does not represent or imply that it endorses the material there posted, or that it believes such material to be accurate, useful, or non-harmful. You are responsible for taking precautions as necessary to protect yourself and your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content. Our Services may contain content that is offensive, indecent, or otherwise objectionable, as well as content containing technical inaccuracies, typographical mistakes, and other errors. Our Services may also contain material that violates the privacy or publicity rights, or infringes the intellectual property and other proprietary rights, of third parties, or the downloading, copying or use of which is subject to additional terms and conditions, stated or unstated. Zero to Heroes disclaims any responsibility for any harm resulting from the use by visitors of our Services, or from any downloading by those visitors of content there posted.
We have not reviewed, and cannot review, all of the material, including computer software, made available through the websites and webpages to which the Service links, and that link to the Service. Zero to Heroes does not have any control over those non-Service websites, and is not responsible for their contents or their use. By linking to a non-Service website, Zero to Heroes does not represent or imply that it endorses such website. You are responsible for taking precautions as necessary to protect yourself and your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content. Zero to Heroes disclaims any responsibility for any harm resulting from your use of non-Service websites and webpages.
This agreement does not transfer from Zero to Heroes to you any Zero to Heroes or third party intellectual property, and all right, title, and interest in and to such property will remain (as between the parties) solely with Zero to Heroes. Zero to Heroes, the Firestone companion app, Untapped.gg, the Zero to Heroes logo, the Firestone logo, and all other trademarks, service marks, graphics and logos used in connection with our Services, are trademarks or registered trademarks of Zero to Heroes or Zero to Heroes’ licensors.

You acknowledge that you do not acquire any ownership rights by using the Service, or any derivative works thereof and you agree not to challenge the validity of any of the Company’s intellectual property or the Company’s ownership thereof. All rights not expressly granted by these Terms are reserved by the Company and its licensors, and no license is granted hereunder by estoppel, implication or otherwise.
You further agree that by submitting Gameplay Related Data and/or Content to the Service, by any method, you hereby grant Zero to Heroes a world-wide, royalty-free, perpetual and non-exclusive license to reproduce, analyze, modify, adapt, publish, redistribute and sell the Gameplay Related Data and/or Content, both individual and aggregated from the global player base. This license includes any data, information or creative works which result from and/or are derivative of the Gameplay Related Data and/or Content. Subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy, this license also allows Zero to Heroes to publish the Gameplay Related Data on the website or on third party websites, use the Gameplay Related Data for promotional purposes, gather and publish analytics based on data gathered in the Gameplay Related Data, and provide Premium Services, or any of the other services or products that we offer across any of our Sites or Services. Zero to Heroes commits itself to be transparent about such uses of data.
If you believe that material available on our Site, including any Content hosted on any of our Sites, infringes on your copyright(s), please notify us by providing a DMCA notice. Upon receipt of a valid and complete notice, we will remove the material and make a good faith attempt to contact the user who uploaded the material by email.
Please follow these steps to file a notice:
-
Verify that the allegedly infringing material or Content is hosted by the Company. We have no control over third-party websites and/or to material or Content that is not hosted on our servers.
-
Attempt to contact the alleged infringer directly to see if the matter can be resolved directly between you and the user.
-
Send your complaint to [email protected] if the issue cannot be resolved directly with the user. You must include the following:
- A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf;
- An identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
- A description of the nature and exact location of the material that you claim to infringe your copyright, in sufficient detail to permit the Company to find and positively identify that material. For example, we require specific identification of the allegedly infringing user and a link to the specific location that contains the material and a description of which specific portion of the location – an image, a link, the text, etc. your complaint refers to;
- Your name, address, telephone number and email address;
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and,
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
- As required by the DMCA, we have a policy to terminate users and/or accounts that we consider to be repeat infringers. Although we don’t share the specifics of our repeat infringer policy, we believe that it strikes the right balance of protecting the rights of copyright owners as well as protecting legitimate users from wrongful termination. Please note that notices that are successfully countered, rejected on fair use grounds, or deemed to be fraudulent are not counted against a user or account.
We appreciate hearing from our users and welcome your comments regarding the Service. Please be advised, however, that if you send to us any comments, suggestions or recommendations regarding the Service (“Feedback”), particularly through any “Contact” functionality on our Sites or through our Service, you hereby assign to us all rights, title and interest in and to the Feedback. Accordingly, your Feedback will not be subject to any obligation of confidentiality and we will not be liable to you for any use or disclosure of any Feedback. Also, we will be entitled and are hereby licensed to unrestricted use of the Feedback for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to you or any other person.

You may, as the result of termination, lose your account, Content, Gameplay Related Data, and all information and data associated therewith, as applicable and the Company is under no obligation to compensate you for any such loss. If you wish to terminate this agreement or any accounts on the Service you may have, you may simply discontinue using our Services. All provisions of this agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty, disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.
