GAME X API Terms of Use
GAME X API Usage Terms
These Supplemental Terms govern your use of the GAME X API integration (the “X Integration”) and form part of the GAME Terms of Use (the “Master Terms”). Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings in the Master Terms. If there is a conflict, the stricter term controls. The X Developer Agreement and Policy (collectively, “X Terms”) also apply; where the X Terms are stricter, the X Terms prevail. Violation of any rule may result in immediate suspension or revocation of your access. We reserve the right to modify API behaviour, rate limits, or access permissions at any time, with or without prior notice.
1. Definitions
1.1 “Application” means your software product(s) that use the GAME SDK and the X Integration under your account. 1.2 “Agent” means an automated process, bot, or agentic module that posts, replies, or sends DMs via X. 1.3 “X Content” means content obtained from or submitted to X via the X Integration (including DMs). 1.4 “You” means the account holder and any affiliates, developers, or contractors acting on your behalf.
2. Acceptance and Modifications
By enabling or using the X Integration, you accept these Supplemental Terms. We may modify behavior, rate limits, or access permissions at any time (with or without notice). Your continued use constitutes acceptance of changes.
3. Compliance; Responsibility
3.1 You are solely responsible for ensuring your use complies with (a) the Master Terms; (b) these Supplemental Terms; and (c) the X Terms. 3.2 You will implement reasonable controls to prevent misuse, including human review where appropriate.
4. Usage Limits and Conduct Rules
The following are binding maximums unless we approve otherwise in writing:
4.1 Posting & General Behavior (a) ≤ 50 posts per day per X account. (b) Follow/unfollow actions: < 100 per day per X account. (c) Use organic, varied language; avoid repetitive or robotic phrasing. (d) Vary formats (images, video, text, polls, threads, quotes, retweets) and mark accounts as sensitive where appropriate. (e) Clearly disclose automation: include an automated/agent-generated label where required by policy or law. (f) Do not post in high-frequency bursts (e.g., every ~10–15 minutes or faster) or otherwise simulate engagement spikes.
4.2 Replies, Mentions, and DMs
(a) Replies: ≤ 10 replies per hour to different users.
(b) DMs to new users: ≤ 10 per day.
(c) An Agent may only reply or DM upon a valid inbound interaction (e.g., the user mentions, replies, retweets, or DMs the Agent).
(d) One automated reply or DM per interaction.
(e) Validate the target post’s existence/availability (e.g., statuses/lookup
) before replying.
(f) Implement filters for sensitive usernames, media, or content in accordance with the X Terms.
4.3 DM-Specific Restrictions
(a) DMs must be triggered by a valid user interaction; no unsolicited DM campaigns.
(b) Permitted endpoints (illustrative, not exhaustive):
• GET /dm_conversations
• GET /dm_events
• POST /dm_events/new
(c) No crawling, scraping, or off-platform storage of DM data beyond what is necessary to operate your Application, and then only for the minimum time required.
(d) Do not use DMs to bypass rate limits or coordinate bot activity.
(e) One DM per valid trigger; no DM spam or sequences.
4.4 Prohibited Activities (a) Liking tweets or adding users to lists/collections via automation. (b) “Engagement farming” (e.g., repetitive “Like if…” prompts). (c) Auto-posting about trending topics solely to harvest reach. (d) Duplicate or substantially similar phrases across posts or accounts. (e) Over-replying or over-DMing beyond the limits above. (f) Misleading, redirect-heavy, or deceptive links. (g) Harassment, abuse, hate speech, doxxing, or other unlawful or harmful conduct. (h) Operating, cloning, or coordinating multiple automated accounts for substantially similar purposes to amplify content or skirt limits.
5. No Resale or Repackaging
5.1 You may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, rent, lease, white-label, or otherwise commercially exploit the X Integration, any plugins, or access to the X API on a standalone basis or via your own wrappers, gateways, multi-tenant endpoints, or “credit” systems. 5.2 You may not expose plugin or X API functionality as a general-purpose service to third parties outside your Application’s end-users under your account.
6. Credentials, Security, and Rate Limits
6.1 API keys and tokens are project-bound, non-transferable, and must not be shared, published, or embedded in public repositories or distributed binaries. 6.2 You must not attempt to obscure usage, rotate identities to evade controls, or otherwise bypass rate limits. 6.3 You will implement industry-standard security to protect credentials and X Content.
7. Data Handling and Privacy (DMs and User Data)
7.1 Collect, process, retain, and delete X Content solely as necessary to provide your Application’s functionality to the end-user initiating the interaction. 7.2 Do not build user profiles from DMs or repurpose DM data for unrelated analytics or advertising. 7.3 Comply with all applicable privacy, data protection, and record-keeping laws.
8. Monitoring; Audit; Enforcement
8.1 We may monitor usage and logs (in a privacy-respecting manner) and may request reasonable information to verify compliance. 8.2 We may suspend or revoke access immediately for suspected or actual breach, risk to users or platforms, or violation of the X Terms. 8.3 You must promptly remediate any non-compliance and cooperate with investigations.
9. API Access Tiers
Tier 1 – Default. Basic access; standard limits. Tier 2 – Elevated. Higher limits, subject to approval. Request by topping up credits at console.game.virtuals.io. We may adjust tiers or limits at any time.
10. Warranties
10.1 You represent and warrant that your use will comply with these Supplemental Terms and the X Terms. 10.2 You will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Company and its affiliates from any third-party claims arising from your use of the X Integration, including violations of the X Terms or applicable law. 10.3 The X Integration is provided “as is” and subject to the disclaimers and limitations in the Master Terms.
11. Suspension, Termination and Survival
We may suspend or terminate the X Integration (in whole or part) at any time. Sections 5–8, 10–12 survive termination.
