Photosensitive Attacks
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, such as flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games or other electronic or online content. Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games or other electronic content. These seizures have a variety of symptoms, including dizziness, disorientation, confusion, momentary loss of consciousness, eye or face twitching, altered vision, or jerking or shaking of the arms or legs. If you experience any of the aforementioned symptoms, or if you or your family has a history of seizures or epilepsy, you should immediately stop using the Website and consult a doctor.
Term
The provision of the Website service and other Services has an indefinite duration. GXA may, however, terminate, suspend, or interrupt the provision of the Website services and/or any of the Services (including User Open Services) at any time and without prior notice.
Applicable Law and Jurisdiction
For the interpretation, fulfillment, and execution of these Website Terms and Conditions of Use, GXA and the User agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in Mexico City, Federal District, waiving any other jurisdiction that might correspond to them by virtue of their current or future domiciles or for any other reason, and that they shall be governed by the applicable provisions of the laws of Mexico.
