Legalities

MoonlitArches is committed to providing a lawful and compliant platform for fantasy sports enthusiasts. This page outlines the legal framework, restrictions, and responsibilities associated with using our services. By participating in contests on our platform, you agree to adhere to all applicable laws and the terms stated in this document.

1. Legal Status of Fantasy Sports in Australia

Fantasy sports, including those hosted by MoonlitArches, are classified as games of skill rather than games of chance. Under the Public Gambling Act of 1867, games of skill are exempt from gambling laws in most parts of Australia. This distinction ensures the legality of fantasy sports, as success is determined by a user’s knowledge, strategy, and understanding of the game.

2. Jurisdictional Restrictions

  • Restricted States: Residents of certain states, such as Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Odisha, Telangana, Nagaland, and Sikkim, are prohibited from participating in paid contests due to local regulations. However, free-to-play contests remain accessible to all users in these states.
  • User Responsibility: It is the user’s responsibility to ensure compliance with local laws before participating in contests. By entering contests on MoonlitArches, users confirm that they reside in a jurisdiction where such activities are permitted.

3. Age Restrictions

Participation in fantasy sports contests on MoonlitArches is restricted to individuals aged 18 and above. By registering and playing, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement.

4. Games of Skill

Contests on MoonlitArches are designed to reward users based on their ability to analyze player performances, make strategic decisions, and manage teams effectively. This focus on skill differentiates these contests from games of chance, supporting their legality in most Australian states.

5. Dispute Resolution

MoonlitArches aims to handle any disputes fairly and transparently. If you encounter any issues related to contest outcomes or legal concerns, please contact our support team. We will thoroughly investigate and resolve the matter in compliance with applicable laws.

6. Compliance with Australian Law

MoonlitArches adheres strictly to Australian laws governing online fantasy sports. While we ensure our platform complies with all applicable regulations, users are encouraged to be aware of the specific laws in their respective states and participate accordingly.
