The Horseland site is owned and operated by Horseland LLC a Delaware company (referred below as: "Horseland", "us", "we", the "Site" or "our"). The Horseland game is a special part of the site where players may play a game of imaginary horses. To make that possible we do not allow players to harass other players, use rude, obscene or obnoxious language. It is the players responsibility to make sure they have the right to use any referenced or uploaded information or images. We also may change the rules of the game at any time, including, but not limited to, the point system, the amount of game money a player receives and the number of horses a player may have. Players that do not follow these rules may be terminated from the game without refund. Fees and privileges may be changed at any time without notice. If players do not agree with these terms of service their only remedy is to stop using the service. This game is designed for people to use by displaying the pages in a browser and clicking the buttons or links by hand. Using programs or scripts to play the game may damage our game, prevents access for other players, increases our costs and is not allowed. Any player who we detect is using such scripts or programs can have their account blocked and all horses, pet or other content deleted or points removed. The Horseland web site has several areas. There are areas of content created by Horseland LLC
