4. Virtual Gifts and Coins Policy
Chiky operates a virtual ecosystem where users purchase digital tokens called "Coins" to buy animated digital items ("Gifts") to support live creators.
Virtual Currency Terms & Compliance
- Limited License: Coins are not currency, bank deposits, or cash equivalents. Purchases of Coins constitute a limited, personal, non-transferable, revocable, and non-refundable license to access digital, interactive animations within Chiky.
- No Cash Redemption: Coins have no real-world monetary value, do not accrue interest, and cannot be redeemed for legal currency or physical items outside Chiky's official creator withdrawal program.
- Zero Chargeback Tolerance: Initiating fraudulent chargebacks, credit card disputes, or payment reversals for coin purchases constitutes a severe breach of this Agreement. We reserve the right to instantly and permanently terminate accounts associated with chargebacks, forfeiting all remaining coin balances, and reporting details to payment gateways and legal authorities.

- Using stolen credit cards, compromised PayPal wallets, or artificial emulator scripts to execute fraudulent coin transactions.
- Promoting commercial gambling, illegal substances, multi-level marketing schemes, or unsolicited advertising.
6. Suspension & Account Termination
We operate a strict, zero-tolerance trust and safety system. CHIKY TECHNOLOGIES LLC reserves the right, in its sole discretion and without prior warning or liability, to suspend, restrict, or permanently terminate your account if:
- You violate any clause of these Terms, the Privacy Policy, or Community Guidelines.
- Your live broadcasts or comment history trigger multiple verified moderator flags or user safety reports.

Upon account termination, your right to access the Platform terminates instantly. All virtual coins, gifts, and levels accumulated in your profile are forfeited immediately and are non-refundable.
