Children under the age of 18 years are expressly prohibited from providing any personal information. We strongly recommend parental supervision of children when using this, or any, website. For more information on children’s online privacy generally and the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, please see the FTC’s Kidz Privacy site. If you are a minor (under the age of 18), you may not take part in any contest run by Champion Motorsports.
Sharing of personal information
Certain features of the site (such as registration for the message boards) do require the provision of personal information. The following categories are requested during the board registration process, but only those marked with an asterisk are required.
- username
- password
- city/state/country
- occupation
- homepage

We may occasionally request more information, primarily for contests or giveaways. If you are a minor (under the age of 18), you can not take part in these contests.
Dissemination of personal information
Any information collected, for instance at a survey or in a contest, is for the internal use of Champion Motorsports and will not be disclosed to third parties without your prior expressed consent. An exception to this is under extraordinary circumstances, such as a legal court order. Other examples of exceptions are to tell a contest partner of the winner’s names, addresses, etc. OR if a party requests that Champion Motorsports give a feedback form for them on their product for readers to fill out. Another exception to this may be aggregate data shared with advertisers (for instance, “90% of our viewers responding to a survey rate our news as “excellent”). This policy is effective and updated on March 11, 2015, and is subject to change without notice, particularly as new site features are added.
Forums registration and use agreement
The Champion Motorsports forums is intended for our members to learn and exchange information about our common interests, share experiences and enjoy time spent with one another. We expect members to treat each other with respect and civility. The forums are open 24 hours a day. Our moderation is done on a wholly volunteer, unpaid basis. Accordingly, we cannot watch every post in every thread all the time. Champion Motorsports array (“The Site”) is not responsible for any member’s posts, emails, or messages array (collectively, “Postings”), including without limitation the content, tone and accuracy of a Posting, or for any material in a Posting that may be offensive to a particular viewer. The author of each Posting is solely responsible for its contents, and each viewer waives all claims, rights and causes of action he or she may assert against The Site arising from or in connection with a Posting. The views of any member, however relayed, are not necessarily the views of The Site or any entity associated with The Site or any of its advertisers. We encourage members to notify us of any Posting that may be objectionable so that we may deal with it accordingly. These concerns can be addressed to any of the moderators, staff, or the webmaster. We reserve the right to edit or delete all or any portion of any member’s Posting as we in our sole discretion deem appropriate.
Your use of The Site is at our discretion and you agree to abide by our rules which may be amended from time to time, including but not limited to the following:
You agree that you will not use The Site to post or link any material that is deceptive and/or defamatory, abusive, hateful, harassing, obscene, discriminatory, profane, threatening, invasive of a person’s privacy, or in violation of any law, license or copyright. The Site’s server may not be used for illegal purposes or in support of illegal services, will not be used to harm or attempt to harm minors in any way, and will not be used to transmit anything that threatens or harasses another person. The Site actively discourages cheating, and the posting of hacks or cheats for any games is forbidden. You agree that you will not attempt to impersonate another person.
The Site’s server will not be used to make unsolicited offers to sell or buy products, items, or services, or to advance any type of financial scam or scheme such as pyramid schemes. We reserve the right to cooperate with legal authorities and/or injured parties in the investigation of any suspected crime or other wrongdoing, and to provide information we know about you in the event of a complaint, claim, suit, or other legal action or investigation involving you. You agree to remain solely responsible for the content of your Postings, and to indemnify and hold harmless The Site, it’s owners, staff, moderators or it’s ISP, all advertisers and their agents, their affiliates, successors and assigns of the foregoing parties, for all expenses of any nature incurred with respect to any claim or demand arising from or based upon your Postings.
Image posting and reposting. We cannot allow unauthorized, copyrighted images in the Forums. If you find an image that you know is copyrighted and not posted by the owner, send a private message to guod and it will be deleted.
We will allow: images created by the poster; screenshots taken by the poster; images and / or screenshots directly released from developers to promote their games/sims.
Do not post images originally published on another enthusiast web site. In all other cases beside these examples a link to the image at the source site must be used in lieu of the reposted image. We ask that members not repeatedly embed images in their posts, similar to a signature image. Any images not complying with those criteria will be deleted. Champion Motorsports members are responsible for ensuring that images they post meet the criteria outlined above.
Unauthorized advertisements, solicitations, chain letters, commercial or bulk e-mail (SPAM) are not allowed.
The Site may amend these rules from time to time without notice.
