5. Disclaimer of Warranties

Next Level Arcadia and all publications, formulas, and recommendations contained herein are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express, statutory, or implied.

While our lead engineer Dean Miftahul, S.T. applies rigorous laboratory testing to verify all damage models, frame data, and system latency optimizations, video games are subject to unannounced developer balance patches, undocumented hotfixes, and platform-specific variance. We do not warrant that our formulas will remain 100 percent accurate across all future game updates, or that system optimizations will produce identical latency improvements across disparate hardware configurations.

6. Limitation of Liability

12. Class Action Waiver & Dispute Resolution Framework

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of Next Level Arcadia will be conducted solely on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action.
