4. CUSTOM CONTENT YOU CREATE
You own the custom content (CC) you create using the skills and techniques taught in this course. You are free to use, share, or release your own original creations. However, you may not include the Company's course files, templates, or textures in anything you share or sell unless the course specifically states that an asset is free to use. You are responsible for following Electronic Arts' rules and policies regarding custom content.
5. SOFTWARE AND GAME REQUIREMENTS
You are responsible for owning a legal copy of The Sims 3 and installing any software used in the course (such as Blender or TSR Workshop). The Company is not responsible for problems caused by game updates, software updates, third-party tools, mods, or your computer setup. Results may vary depending on your skill level, software version, and the time you put into practice.
6. NO REFUNDS
Due to the digital nature of this product, ALL SALES ARE FINAL and no refunds are offered. You are responsible for paying for all products you purchase and providing a valid payment method. Prices may change at any time without price protection or refunds for past purchases. If a product becomes unavailable after purchase but before you can access it, or if technical problems prevent or unreasonably delay delivery, your sole remedy is replacement or a refund, as determined by the Company.
7. ACCURACY OF INFORMATION
We make reasonable efforts to keep the Content accurate and up to date, but we make no warranties about its accuracy and are not responsible for errors or omissions.

9. FEEDBACK AND SUBMISSIONS
If you send comments, suggestions, or ideas about the Site or Content, the Company may use them for any purpose without compensation to you. This does not apply to your own original CC creations, which remain yours.
10. PRIVACY AND SECURITY
We will not intentionally share your personal information with third parties except where required by law or to enforce these Terms. We use reasonable efforts to protect your data, but no system is completely secure, and you use the Site at your own risk.
11. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CONCERNS
