Last updated: 6 June 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Pixelrust website at pixel-rust.com, our Rust game servers, community services, leaderboards, account linking, and kit store (together, the "Services"). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

1. Who we are

The Services are operated by Pixelrust ("we", "us", "our"). Contact us via the support channels listed on our website or Discord community.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required in your country to use online services) to use the Services. By using the Services you confirm that you meet this requirement and that your use of Steam, Discord, and Rust complies with those platforms' own terms.

3. Accounts and linking

• Steam login. You may sign in using Steam OpenID. We receive your Steam ID and basic public profile information (such as display name and avatar) to create and maintain your account.
• Discord linking. You may optionally link a Discord account to receive community benefits, verification status, and in-game rewards where offered. Linking is voluntary unless required for a specific feature.
• Your responsibility. You are responsible for activity on your account and for keeping your Steam and Discord accounts secure. Do not share access or attempt to use another person's account.
• Accurate information. You must not impersonate others or provide misleading information.

4. Rust servers and gameplay

• Pixelrust operates Rust servers with scheduled wipes, leaderboards, and community features. Gameplay is subject to our Server Rules and any announcements we publish on the website or Discord.
• Rust is developed by Facepunch Studios. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by Facepunch. Your use of Rust is subject to Facepunch's terms and End User Licence Agreement.
• We may modify, suspend, restart, wipe, or discontinue any server or feature at any time for maintenance, balance, abuse prevention, or operational reasons.
• In-game items, kits, permissions, stats, and progress may be lost on wipe or reset as part of normal server operation unless we explicitly state otherwise.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Cheat, exploit bugs, use unauthorised third-party software, or otherwise gain an unfair advantage.
• Harass, threaten, discriminate against, or abuse other players or staff.
• Attempt to disrupt the Services, bypass security, scrape data at scale, or interfere with our systems or game servers.
• Use the Services for unlawful purposes or to violate the rights of others.
• Resell, transfer, or commercially exploit access to kits or accounts except where we explicitly allow it.

We may investigate violations and take action including warnings, in-game bans, website restrictions, removal of roles or kits, and permanent bans.

6. Kit store and payments

• Digital goods. Our store sells digital in-game kits and related permissions delivered to your linked Steam account on the server you select. Kits are not physical goods.
• Payments. Payments are processed by Stripe. By purchasing, you also agree to Stripe's terms where applicable. We do not store your full card details on our servers.
• Pricing. Prices are shown at checkout in the currency displayed (typically GBP). We may change prices or kit contents at any time; changes apply to future purchases.
• Delivery. Kits are delivered by granting in-game permissions through our server plugin. Delivery usually occurs shortly after successful payment but may be delayed by server restarts, wipes, technical issues, or the need to link Steam/Discord. Contact support if delivery fails within a reasonable time.
• Refunds. Because kits are digital and delivered quickly, purchases are generally non-refundable once the kit permission has been granted or the purchase has been fulfilled. Refunds may be considered at our sole discretion for duplicate charges, failed delivery, or exceptional circumstances. Chargebacks without contacting us first may result in account suspension.
• Duration. Some kits are time-limited (e.g. 30 days); others are lifetime for that server unless removed for rule violations or server closure. Expiry details are shown at purchase.

7. Leaderboards and stats

We collect and display gameplay statistics (such as kills, deaths, and playtime) from our Rust servers. Stats are provided for community purposes and may be inaccurate, delayed, or reset on wipe. We do not guarantee rankings or rewards based on leaderboard position unless explicitly announced.

8. Intellectual property

Pixelrust branding, website content, and original materials are owned by us or our licensors. Rust, Steam, and Discord are trademarks of their respective owners. You may not copy or reuse our content without permission except for personal, non-commercial use allowed by law.

9. Disclaimers

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available". We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free operation, or that the Services will meet your expectations. Online gaming involves interaction with other users; we are not responsible for their conduct.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, goodwill, or in-game items arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Services is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months before the claim, or £50 if you made no purchases.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law (including fraud or death/personal injury caused by negligence where applicable).

11. Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access, remove linked accounts, revoke kits or roles, or ban you from servers if you breach these Terms, our rules, or for operational or legal reasons. Sections that by nature should survive (including limitations of liability and governing law) will survive termination.

12. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date will change when we do. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated Terms. Material changes may be announced on the website or Discord.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, unless mandatory consumer protection laws in your country require otherwise.

14. Contact
