Z’HER0 — Zero to Hero

Z’HER0 Privacy Notice · Version 1.0

Effective 30 August 2026

Z'HER0 PRIVACY NOTICE
Version 1.0
Effective Date: 30 August 2026

This Privacy Notice explains how personal information is processed in connection with the Z'HER0
website, accounts, formal Submission system, communications and related administration. It is
intended to operate consistently with applicable Philippine data-protection law, including the Data
Privacy Act of 2012, its implementing rules, and applicable issuances of the National Privacy
Commission.

1. Who Is Responsible for Your Personal Information
Z'HER0 is an independent game project operated by Daryl Navora, referred to in this Notice as the
"Creator." Where the Creator determines the purposes and means of processing personal
information for Z'HER0, the Creator acts as the responsible Personal Information Controller to the
extent provided by applicable law.

Privacy inquiries and requests may be directed to [email protected]. General inquiries may be sent
to [email protected].

2. Scope of This Notice
This Notice applies to personal information processed through Z'HER0's public website and the
services connected with it, including account registration and administration, authentication and
security, formal Submissions, Submission administration, submitter-to-administrator messaging,
support requests, privacy requests, optional attribution and optional project updates, when those
features are enabled and used.

It does not automatically govern third-party websites or services that operate independently under
their own privacy practices.

3. Personal Information We May Process
Depending on the features you use, Z'HER0 may process information you provide directly, such as
your email address, account information, display name or username, Submission content,
messages, support inquiries, attribution choices, update-subscription choices and other information
you intentionally provide.

For formal Submissions, Z'HER0 may also maintain the Submission itself together with its
Submission or Entry ID, account reference, submission date and time, applicable Submission
Terms version, evidence of acceptance, 18+ confirmation and related administrative records.

The system may process authentication, security and technical information reasonably necessary to
establish accounts, verify access, protect the service, investigate abuse, maintain security and
establish the integrity of legally significant events.

Authorized Z'HER0 administration may create internal review information such as tags,
classifications, administrative notes, status information and records concerning Submissions or
communications. Where such information relates to an identifiable individual, it may constitute
personal information and is treated accordingly.

Z'HER0 does not intend to require a full date of birth merely to establish the standard 18+
Submission requirement unless a later legitimate need is established. You should not provide
unnecessary sensitive personal information through Submissions, messages or support requests.

4. Why Personal Information Is Processed
Z'HER0 processes personal information only for specified and legitimate purposes and under an
applicable lawful basis.

Account and authentication information may be processed to create and administer an account,
verify access, provide requested account functionality and protect the system from fraud,
impersonation, unauthorized access and abuse.

Submission information may be processed to receive, preserve, identify, review, administer and
communicate about Submissions; maintain legally relevant records; establish the Submission
Terms accepted for a particular submission; protect intellectual-property and contractual rights;
prevent misuse; and operate the Submission program.

Optional unfinished cloud drafts may be processed to save and synchronize a member's own
in-progress Suggestion across devices. Local-only drafts are not intentionally uploaded to
Z'HER0. A cloud draft is associated with the member's account, is not a formal Submission or
Entry unless the member completes the formal submission process, and is not exposed to other
members or through the ordinary Z'HER0 Admin Entry-management interface. Firebase/Google and
other service providers used to operate the account service may process cloud-draft data on
Z'HER0's behalf, subject to the provider arrangements and safeguards described in this Notice.

Messages and support information may be processed to provide requested communications,
respond to questions, administer accounts or Submissions, investigate problems and handle
privacy or legal requests. Security and administrative records may be processed where reasonably
necessary to protect Z'HER0, submitters, users, systems and legal rights.

Some processing may be necessary for performance of or steps connected with an agreement,
some may be required by law, and some may be based on legitimate interests where those interests
are lawful, necessary and appropriately balanced against the rights and interests of affected
individuals. Consent will be used where consent is the appropriate or legally required basis,
particularly for genuinely optional activities.

5. Submission Terms and Privacy Are Separate
Acceptance of the Z'HER0 Submission Terms establishes the contractual and intellectual-property
arrangements governing a formal Submission. It does not constitute blanket consent for all
processing of personal information.

Likewise, this Privacy Notice explains processing; merely displaying this Notice does not transform
every processing activity into consent-based processing. Where Z'HER0 needs consent for a
particular purpose, that consent will be requested separately and appropriately.

6. Optional Public Attribution
If Z'HER0 provides an option to authorize public attribution, you may separately choose whether the
name, username, handle or other display name you provide may be publicly associated with an
acknowledged Submission.

Attribution permission is separate from the Submission License and from optional project updates.
Granting attribution permission does not guarantee that attribution will be provided.

Where applicable, you may contact Z'HER0 concerning withdrawal of optional attribution
permission. Withdrawal will be handled subject to applicable law and any legitimate need
concerning material already published or distributed.

7. Optional Project Updates
Development updates, newsletters, marketing communications and similar optional messages are
separate from account creation and formal Submissions. Where these communications are offered
on a consent basis, Z'HER0 will request a separate opt-in.

You may unsubscribe using the available unsubscribe mechanism or other stated method.
Unsubscribing does not automatically delete your account, delete a Submission or revoke a
Submission License.

Z'HER0 may retain limited information where reasonably necessary to honor an unsubscribe request
and avoid sending communications you have declined.

8. Submission Review Information
Z'HER0 may maintain information necessary to administer and review Submissions.
Submitter-facing Submission status is a website function and is separate from the legal license
granted under the Submission Terms.

Where the website displays Received, it means the Submission was successfully received. It does
not mean the Submission was accepted, approved, selected, adopted, scheduled, implemented or
used.

Where the website displays Reviewed, it means an authorized Z'HER0 reviewer has completed the
review of the Submission. It does not mean the Submission was accepted, approved, selected,
adopted, scheduled, implemented or used.

Authorized administrators may also use internal tags or notes for administration. Such information is
not necessarily displayed to the submitter, but where it relates to an identifiable individual it
remains subject to applicable privacy requirements.

9. Messaging and Support
Where authenticated messaging is available, communications are intended to occur between a
registered user or submitter and authorized Z'HER0 administration. Z'HER0 does not represent this
feature as a public user-to-user messaging system.

Messages may be processed to answer questions, request clarification, provide information,
administer Submissions, handle accounts, provide support and maintain appropriate administrative
or legal records.

Sending additional creative material through an ordinary message does not automatically make that
material a formal Submission governed by previously accepted Submission Terms. Where
additional material is intended to become a formal Submission, the appropriate submission or
confirmation process must be used.

10. Service Providers
Z'HER0 may use third-party service providers where reasonably necessary to host, secure,
authenticate, communicate, store or otherwise operate website and account functions.

Before a provider is used for production processing, Z'HER0 will assess the provider's role and
relevant terms, security, confidentiality, retention, deletion, subprocessors and other applicable
data-protection considerations. Where required, appropriate contractual or other safeguards will be
maintained.

The published version of this Notice must accurately reflect the providers and processing actually in
use. A provider that has merely been considered or tested will not be represented as an active
production processor unless that is actually the case.

11. International Processing
Some service providers may process or store personal information outside the Philippines.

International processing will not be undertaken merely because it is convenient without considering
the applicable lawful basis, transparency requirements, provider safeguards, contractual
arrangements, security and continuing responsibility of the Personal Information Controller.

Where international processing occurs, the published Notice will identify the relevant processing or
provider categories as required by applicable law.

12. Security
Z'HER0 will use reasonable and appropriate organizational, physical and technical safeguards
proportionate to the nature of the personal information and risks involved.

Depending on the implemented system, safeguards may include controlled administrative access,
role-based permissions, secure authentication, multi-factor authentication for sensitive
administrative access, protected credentials and secrets, encrypted transport, access controls,
backups, recovery procedures, logging, incident-response procedures and appropriate separation of
development and production information.

Passwords will not intentionally be stored by Z'HER0 in plaintext or other directly readable form. No
online system can be represented as absolutely secure, and Z'HER0 does not make such a
guarantee.

13. Retention
Personal information will be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for
which it is processed, for another compatible lawful purpose, or where retention is permitted or
required by applicable law. Different categories of information may require different retention
periods.

Unfinished cloud drafts are retained while cloud draft sync remains enabled and the draft is
needed for the member's save/sync feature. Disabling cloud sync stops future save/sync uploads;
a member may also delete a cloud draft or request account deletion. Z'HER0 will delete or de-identify those drafts when they are
no longer needed, subject to limited, lawful security, backup, dispute or legal-retention needs.
A successfully created formal Entry is a separate record and follows the retention rules for
formal Submissions rather than the cloud-draft lifecycle.

Account information that is no longer needed after valid account deletion should be removed,
deleted, anonymized or otherwise appropriately handled unless a lawful reason requires some
information to remain.

Certain Submission-related records may need to be retained after account deletion where
reasonably necessary to establish or administer a Submission, demonstrate the applicable Terms
and acceptance event, protect legal rights, comply with law, resolve disputes, maintain security or
preserve another legitimate legal record.

Where identifiable information is no longer necessary, Z'HER0 will consider deletion, anonymization
or pseudonymization as appropriate. The existence of a continuing Submission License does not by
itself justify indefinite retention of every piece of personal information associated with the
submitter.

14. Account Deletion
Where account deletion is available and properly requested, Z'HER0 intends to perform genuine
account deletion rather than merely hiding the account from the user.

Account deletion does not necessarily mean that every historical record can or must be destroyed
immediately. Information that no longer has a lawful purpose should not be retained merely
because the account previously existed.

Information that remains necessary for legal, security, Submission, dispute, compliance or other
lawful purposes may be retained only to the extent and for the duration that such purpose justifies.

Deleting an account does not automatically unsubscribe every independently managed
communication preference unless the applicable system does so, and unsubscribing from project
updates is not the same as account deletion. Account deletion or a privacy request also does not
automatically revoke intellectual-property rights validly granted through a previous Submission.

15. Your Privacy Rights
Subject to the Data Privacy Act, its implementing rules and other applicable law, you may have
rights concerning your personal information, including rights to be informed about processing,
access personal information, object to certain processing, correct inaccurate information, request
erasure or blocking where legally available, obtain data portability where applicable, lodge a
complaint and seek damages where provided by law.

These rights are not necessarily absolute. Applicable law may permit or require continued
processing in particular circumstances.

A request will not be rejected merely because you did not use a particular form if the request
otherwise contains sufficient information to understand and process it.

Z'HER0 may take reasonable steps to verify that a person making a privacy request is the affected
individual or is otherwise authorized to act for them. Verification should be proportionate to the
request. Z'HER0 does not intend to demand government-issued identification by default where a
less intrusive method reasonably establishes identity.

Privacy requests may be sent to [email protected].

16. Internal Notes and Access Requests
Administrative tags, internal notes and similar records are not automatically exempt from privacy
law merely because they are internal.

If such information relates to an identifiable person, Z'HER0 will assess it as personal information
when responding to an applicable privacy request. Whether particular information must be provided,
withheld, redacted or otherwise handled will depend on applicable law, the rights of other persons,
privilege or confidentiality where legally applicable, and the circumstances of the request.

17. Personal-Data Breaches
Z'HER0 will maintain procedures for identifying, assessing, documenting and responding to
personal-data security incidents.

Where a breach meets applicable legal notification requirements, Z'HER0 will notify the National
Privacy Commission and affected individuals within the period and manner required by applicable
law.

An incident that does not meet the legal threshold for notification may nevertheless be documented
and addressed internally. Where processing is performed by a service provider, Z'HER0 will maintain
appropriate arrangements concerning incident reporting and cooperation.

18. Children and Formal Submissions
The formal Z'HER0 Submission process is restricted to persons who are at least 18 years old.

Z'HER0 does not need a complete date of birth merely to operate that standard restriction unless
another legitimate and proportionate need is established. If Z'HER0 learns that personal information
was collected through the formal Submission system contrary to this requirement, it may take
appropriate action consistent with applicable law.

19. Artificial Intelligence
Z'HER0 does not currently represent AI-assisted Submission administration as an active production
processing activity.

If AI-assisted administration is introduced in the future, Z'HER0 will assess the proposed processing
before activation, including its lawful basis, necessity and proportionality, provider arrangements,
information disclosed to the provider, international processing, retention, provider training or
product-improvement practices, security, human oversight and applicable data-subject rights.

The Privacy Notice and applicable privacy assessment will be updated where necessary before
materially different AI processing is introduced.

Authentication credentials, passwords and multi-factor authentication secrets will not be provided to
an AI system merely for general administrative convenience. Where AI is later used to assist
administrative review, Z'HER0 intends to maintain appropriate human oversight rather than treating
unrestricted automated acceptance or rejection of Submissions as authorized merely because AI
technology is available.

20. Changes to This Privacy Notice
Z'HER0 may update this Privacy Notice when its processing activities, systems, providers, legal
obligations or practices change.

Each published version should identify its effective date and version. Material changes will be
communicated or presented in an appropriate manner where required by applicable law.

A revised Privacy Notice does not retroactively create consent where valid consent is legally
required for a new processing purpose.

Z’HER0 Submission Terms and Conditions · Version 1.0

Status: NOT YET EFFECTIVE

Z'HER0 SUBMISSION TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Version 1.0
Originally drafted: 30 August 2026
Revised: 2 September 2026
Status: NOT YET EFFECTIVE

These Submission Terms and Conditions govern formal voluntary creative Submissions made to
Z'HER0 through a designated submission process.

1. Scope, Definitions and Agreement
These Submission Terms and Conditions govern formal voluntary creative material intentionally
submitted to Z'HER0 through a designated submission process. Z'HER0 is an independent game project
operated by Daryl Navora, referred to in these Terms as the "Creator." References to "Z'HER0" refer to
the project and its related development activities and do not imply that Z'HER0 is a separately
incorporated legal entity.

These Terms apply only where an official Z'HER0 process expressly presents or identifies these Terms
and requires you to affirmatively accept the applicable version before the material can be formally
submitted.

A "Submission" means creative material intentionally submitted through that process, including an
equipment concept, equipment-set concept, proposed name, description, artwork, design, lore,
gameplay idea, mechanic, balance suggestion, written material, or other creative material. The website
or interface may describe a Submission as a Suggestion, Entry, proposal, recommendation,
contribution, or another similar label without changing its legal treatment under these Terms.

The person making a Submission is referred to in these Terms as the "Submitter."

By completing a Submission, you confirm that you have read, understood, and affirmatively accepted
the version of these Terms presented to you for that Submission.

Ordinary email, support requests, social-media messages, community discussions, website messages,
account messages, chats, casual feedback, or other communications are not automatically formal
Submissions merely because they contain an idea or creative material. Material sent through another
channel becomes a formal Submission only where Z'HER0 expressly provides a designated process or
specific confirmation that presents or identifies the applicable Terms and requires the necessary
acceptance for that material.

2. Eligibility and Legal Capacity
You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into these Terms to make a formal
Submission.

Ordinary access to the Z'HER0 website, an account, or other services may be available to a person
under 18 subject to applicable legal requirements, including any required parental or legal-guardian
consent or supervision. Permission to use those ordinary services does not make a person under 18
eligible to make a formal Submission.

By making a Submission, you represent that you are at least 18 years old, possess the legal capacity to
enter into these Terms, have the rights and permissions necessary to provide the Submission, and have
authority to grant the rights described in these Terms.

A false statement concerning age or legal capacity may result in rejection or removal of an Entry,
suspension or termination of submission privileges or an account, and other remedies available under
applicable law. A false age or capacity statement does not by itself create legal capacity or make an
otherwise unenforceable agreement enforceable. Any consequences concerning capacity,
enforceability, restitution, ratification, or other remedies remain subject to applicable law.

3. Ownership of Your Submission
You retain whatever copyright and other intellectual-property rights you legally own in your original
Submission.

Making a Submission does not, by itself, transfer ownership of your original material to the Creator or
Z'HER0. Instead, you grant the license described in Section 4.

Nothing in these Terms grants you ownership of Z'HER0, its pre-existing material, independently
developed material, or material belonging to other submitters or third parties.

4. License Granted for Z'HER0
By making a Submission, you grant the Creator a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free and fully
paid-up license, for the full duration of applicable copyright and related economic rights, to exercise the
rights described in these Terms in connection with Z'HER0 and the Z'HER0 project family.

The license includes the right, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to reproduce, store, review,
evaluate, edit, adapt, translate, modify, rename, redesign, rebalance, arrange, combine, integrate,
display, publish, distribute, communicate to the public, publicly perform where applicable,
commercialize, create derivative works from, incorporate into other material, and otherwise use the
Submission in whole or in part.

These rights may be exercised in connection with the development, testing, operation, publication,
promotion, commercialization and preservation of Z'HER0, including renamed or rebranded versions,
rebuilds, remakes, revivals, successor versions or projects, sequels, expansions, downloadable content,
ports, updates, websites, community materials, promotional materials, audiovisual works, merchandise
and other products or media reasonably related to Z'HER0.

The standard license under these Terms does not extend to completely unrelated current or future
projects of the Creator. Use of a Submission for a completely unrelated project would require another
applicable legal basis or agreement.

The Creator may grant sublicenses where reasonably appropriate to develop, operate, publish,
distribute, promote, support, commercialize, transfer or otherwise exercise the licensed rights in
connection with the Z'HER0 project family.

The licensed rights may also be transferred or assigned, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in
connection with a legitimate transfer of Z'HER0 or relevant project rights or assets, including
incorporation, restructuring, succession, acquisition, merger, project or business sale, or another bona
fide transfer involving the project or the relevant licensed rights.

The license is intended to continue for its stated duration and, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, may not be revoked merely because you later change your mind, delete your account,
unsubscribe from communications, or request deletion of personal information.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to prevent the operation of a right, remedy, invalidity rule,
rescission right, statutory termination right, court order or other legal protection that applicable law
does not permit the parties to exclude.

Because the license is non-exclusive, you generally remain free to use or license material you legally
own, provided doing so does not impair rights already validly granted under these Terms. No royalty or
other payment becomes due merely because the Creator exercises the licensed rights.

5. Modification and Creative Control
You understand that a Submission may be substantially modified. The Creator may change its name,
appearance, artwork, description, lore, statistics, gameplay behavior, balance, equipment slot, theme,
presentation, implementation or relationship with other material.

A Submission may be used completely or partially, combined with other material, transformed, adapted
into something substantially different from the original proposal, replaced, or later removed from
Z'HER0. Making a Submission does not give you approval rights or creative control over its final
implementation.

6. Moral Rights and Consent to Modification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you expressly consent in advance to the modifications,
adaptations, combinations, transformations, commercialization, publication and other treatments of
your Submission that are authorized by these Terms.

Where applicable law permits a particular moral right to be waived, limited, consented away or subject
to non-assertion, you agree to such treatment only to the extent legally permitted and reasonably
necessary for the Creator to exercise the rights expressly granted under these Terms.

Nothing in this Section is intended to waive, eliminate or restrict a moral right or other protection where
applicable law does not permit that result. This Section does not authorize use outside the license
granted by these Terms.

7. Similar and Independently Developed Material
Z'HER0 is an active creative project. The Creator may already possess or be developing, may later
independently develop, or may receive from another person material that is identical or similar to your
Submission.

Similarities may occur in equipment, names, artwork, themes, mechanics, statistics, abilities, systems,
stories, terminology, concepts or other elements. Your Submission does not give you ownership of
material independently created by the Creator, Z'HER0 or another person merely because that material
resembles your Submission.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, similarity alone does not establish that your Submission was
copied or improperly used. Nothing in this Section removes rights you may have concerning an actual
unauthorized use outside the rights granted under these Terms.

8. No Obligation to Use, Accept or Respond
The Creator is not required to use, accept, publish, develop, preserve indefinitely, provide feedback
about, or include any Submission in Z'HER0.

The Creator may reject, archive, modify, replace, stop developing, remove or discontinue use of a
Submission, subject to applicable law. The Creator is also not required to provide an individualized
explanation concerning why a Submission was or was not used.

Any user-facing status displayed by the website is informational and does not itself modify these Terms
or create a promise of acceptance, implementation, compensation or publication. Received means
Z'HER0 successfully received the Submission. Reviewed means an authorized Z'HER0 reviewer
completed a review. Neither status means accepted, approved, selected, adopted, scheduled,
implemented or used.

9. No Compensation or Business Relationship
Submissions under these Terms are voluntary. Unless the Creator and Submitter expressly enter into a
separate written agreement providing otherwise, making, reviewing, accepting or using a Submission
does not entitle the Submitter to payment, royalties, revenue sharing, wages, prizes, equity, ownership,
reimbursement or other compensation.

A Submission does not create employment, agency, partnership, fiduciary duty, joint venture,
ownership interest or another business relationship between the Submitter and the Creator or Z'HER0.

10. Attribution and Submitter Credit
Making or using a Submission does not automatically guarantee public credit.

Where the Suggestion or Submission interface provides a separate attribution option, you may
authorize the Creator to publicly display the name, username, handle or other display name you
provide in connection with an acknowledged Submission.

Granting attribution permission does not guarantee that attribution will be provided. Declining optional
public attribution does not prevent consideration or use of the Submission under the license granted by

these Terms.

Nothing in this Section is intended to restrict any attribution or authorship right that applicable law does
not permit the parties to waive or limit.

11. Non-Confidentiality
Formal Submissions are not accepted in confidence unless a separate written agreement expressly
provides otherwise.

You should not submit trade secrets, confidential business information, material covered by another
person's non-disclosure agreement, private development material belonging to another project,
unreleased third-party material you are not authorized to disclose, or anything else you are legally
prohibited from providing.

Making a Submission does not, by itself, create a confidentiality, secrecy or fiduciary obligation. This
provision does not override applicable privacy law, a pre-existing confidentiality obligation, a mutually
agreed non-disclosure agreement, trade-secret protection or another protection independently arising
under applicable law.

12. Submitter Representations and Warranties
By making a Submission, you represent and warrant, to the extent applicable, that information you
provide concerning your authority is accurate; you created the Submission or possess the rights and
permissions necessary to submit it; you possess the authority necessary to grant the license in these
Terms; and you have not knowingly submitted material that you are prohibited from providing.

Where third-party authorization is legally necessary for material included in your Submission, you
represent that you have obtained that authorization.

You must not knowingly submit material in violation of another person's intellectual-property rights,
privacy rights, contractual rights, confidentiality obligations or other applicable legal rights. These
representations concern material supplied by you. They do not make you responsible for material
independently added or created by the Creator.

13. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify the Creator against a third-party
claim and resulting direct, reasonable losses or costs to the extent the claim arises from your material
breach of the representations, warranties or obligations in these Terms, including your knowing
submission of protected material that you were not authorized to provide.

The Creator will provide reasonable notice of a covered claim where reasonably practicable and will not
unreasonably prevent your participation in the defense of a claim for which indemnification is sought.

This Section does not require you to indemnify the Creator for losses caused by the Creator's own fraud,
bad faith, willful misconduct, independent infringement, use outside the license granted by these
Terms, unlawful processing of personal information, or another responsibility that applicable law does
not permit the Creator to exclude or transfer. Nothing in this Section creates indemnification beyond
what applicable law permits.

14. Personal Information and Privacy
Personal information connected with accounts and Submissions is handled separately from the
intellectual-property license established by these Terms.

The applicable Z'HER0 Privacy Notice explains the categories of personal information processed,
purposes and applicable lawful bases, recipients or provider categories, retention, security practices,
international processing where applicable, data-subject rights and privacy contact information.

Accepting these Submission Terms does not constitute consent to every possible processing of personal
information. Where consent is legally required for a particular optional processing activity, that consent
will be requested separately.

Account deletion, privacy requests and the Submission License are legally distinct. Deleting an account
or exercising a privacy right does not automatically revoke a license validly granted for a previous
Submission. At the same time, the existence of a Submission License does not authorize indefinite
retention of personal information that is no longer lawfully necessary.

15. Optional Project Updates
Permission to receive Z'HER0 development updates, news, marketing communications or similar
messages is separate and optional.

Accepting these Terms or making a Submission does not automatically subscribe you to such
communications. Where an update subscription is offered, it will use a separate opt-in mechanism.

Unsubscribing from optional communications does not automatically delete your account, delete a
Submission or revoke a previously granted Submission License. Public attribution permission is also
separate from update subscription.

16. Project Status
Z'HER0 is an independent game project under development. Its design, content, mechanics, features,
platforms, business model, schedule, availability and release plans may change.

Development may be delayed, substantially changed, suspended, discontinued and later revived.
Making a Submission does not guarantee release of Z'HER0, release by a particular date, continued
development, continued use of a Submission or commercial availability of the project.

17. Submission Records and Electronic Acceptance
Acceptance of these Terms may occur electronically.

The Submission process may preserve records reasonably necessary to establish and administer that
acceptance, including the applicable Submission or Entry identifier, account identifier, Terms version,
durable copy or reference to the Terms presented, acceptance event, date and time, 18+ confirmation
and related authentication, integrity or audit records where appropriate.

The Creator may preserve records reasonably necessary to demonstrate the rights granted and the
circumstances of the Submission, subject to the Privacy Notice and applicable law.

A formal Submission cannot be completed through the designated interface unless the required
acceptance and eligibility confirmations have been affirmatively completed.

18. Changes to These Terms
The Creator may publish revised Submission Terms from time to time.

A new Submission is governed by the version of the Terms presented and affirmatively accepted for
that Submission. Publishing a later version does not silently rewrite the Terms previously accepted for
an earlier Submission.

Previously granted rights remain governed by the applicable accepted version unless they are validly
modified under a separate agreement or applicable law provides otherwise.

19. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without prejudice to
mandatory rights and protections that cannot lawfully be waived.

20. Jurisdiction and Venue
To the extent permitted by applicable law, an action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these
Terms shall be brought before the competent courts in Taguig City, Philippines.

Nothing in this Section excludes a venue, jurisdiction, procedural protection or mandatory right that
applicable law requires to remain available.

21. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it will be
interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable where legally possible.

If that cannot be done, the affected provision will be severed to the necessary extent and the remaining
provisions will continue in effect to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

22. Entire Agreement and Different Arrangements
These Terms constitute the agreement concerning a formal Submission made through the designated
process to which these Terms apply.

Statements, labels or conditions that you insert into a Suggestion, Entry, Submission, message, file or
other communication do not by themselves amend these Terms. For example, writing that a Submission
is "confidential," requires a royalty, requires attribution, or is subject to another condition does not by
itself create that agreement.

A different or additional arrangement applies only where the Creator or an expressly authorized
representative expressly accepts it in writing for the relevant Submission. Where a valid separate
written agreement expressly modifies or supersedes part of these Terms, that agreement controls to
the extent stated.

These Terms do not replace unrelated agreements independently existing between you and the
Creator.

Website and account-use terms for the Z'HER0 public service. This document is separate from the Submission Terms and Privacy Notice.

1. About These Terms
These Terms of Service govern access to and use of the Z'HER0 website, accounts, messaging, submission interfaces, and other website services made available by Daryl Navora, the creator and operator of Z'HER0 ("Creator"). Z'HER0 is an independent game project and brand, not a separately incorporated legal entity.

By using a feature that expressly requires acceptance of these Terms, you agree to the version presented to you. Mere viewing of publicly accessible pages does not grant rights in Z'HER0 content or override rights that applicable law provides.

2. Relationship to Other Z'HER0 Documents
These Terms govern use of the website and services. The Z'HER0 Submission Terms and Conditions separately govern formal creative Submissions and the license granted for them. The Z'HER0 Privacy Notice separately explains personal-data processing. The Z'HER0 Content Policy sets rules for material and conduct on Z'HER0 services.

Accepting these Terms does not by itself grant Z'HER0 a license to creative material outside the formal Submission process, and it does not constitute blanket privacy consent.

3. Accounts and Security
Some features may require a registered account. You are responsible for providing accurate account information where required, protecting your credentials, and taking reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access.

You must not sell, transfer, impersonate another person through, or knowingly permit unauthorized use of an account. Z'HER0 may require verification or additional security measures for sensitive functions. If you believe an account has been compromised, contact [email protected].

4. Acceptable Use
You may use Z'HER0 services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms and the Content Policy. You must not attempt unauthorized access; bypass security or access controls; interfere with service operation; introduce malware; exploit vulnerabilities; impersonate others; use the service for fraud, harassment, spam, or unlawful activity; or use automated access in a manner that materially burdens, disrupts, or circumvents intended controls.

Security research, testing, scraping, automation, or other technical interaction is not authorized merely because a public page can be reached. Applicable law and any express written permission continue to govern.

5. User Content and Communications
Messages, profile information, support requests, and other user-provided material may be processed as necessary to provide and administer the relevant feature, subject to the Privacy Notice.

Ordinary messages or communications do not automatically become formal Submissions. Creative material is governed by the Submission Terms only when the applicable formal submission or specific confirmation process is used.

6. Drafts and Optional Cloud Storage
Z'HER0 may provide local draft saving and an optional account-based cloud-draft sync feature for unfinished Suggestion material. Enabling cloud sync authorizes storage of those drafts for the member's own save/sync use. A saved draft remains unfinished user material: it is not a formal Submission, Entry, or grant of rights under the Submission Terms unless and until the member completes the designated formal submission process.

Cloud drafts are intended to be private to the member and are not made available to other members or through the ordinary Admin Entry-management interface. They may, however, be processed by authorized service providers and accessed only where reasonably necessary for security, maintenance, legal compliance, or operation of the service. Cloud sync is a convenience feature, not a guaranteed permanent backup. Draft deletion, disabling sync, account deletion, and lawful retention are addressed in the Privacy Notice.

7. Content Policy and Moderation
Material and conduct using Z'HER0 services must comply with the Z'HER0 Content Policy. Z'HER0 may remove or restrict content, limit features, suspend access, or terminate accounts where reasonably necessary to address violations, security risks, abuse, legal obligations, or protection of the service and its users, subject to applicable law.

Moderation action does not create an obligation to monitor every message or submission in advance.

8. Z'HER0 Intellectual Property
Except for material owned by submitters or third parties, Z'HER0's original website content, game materials, artwork, names, logos, designs, text, software, and other protected material remain owned by the Creator or applicable rights holder.

Access to the website does not transfer ownership or grant a general right to reproduce, redistribute, sell, modify, or commercially exploit protected Z'HER0 material. Any permitted use arising under law remains unaffected.

9. Feedback Versus Formal Submissions
General comments about the website or service may be treated as feedback for administration and improvement, but Z'HER0 will not rely on this section to convert creative material into a formal Submission license. Formal creative Submissions require the designated Submission process and the applicable Submission Terms.

10. Third-Party Services and Links
Z'HER0 may rely on or link to third-party services. Those services may have their own terms and privacy practices. Z'HER0 does not control an independent third party merely by linking to or integrating its service.

Provider-specific disclosures will be kept consistent with the Privacy Notice and actual production configuration.

11. Availability and Changes
Z'HER0 is an independent project under development. Website features, accounts, messaging, submission tools, game information, and other services may change, be interrupted, be removed, or be discontinued. No particular feature, release date, uptime level, or continued availability is guaranteed unless expressly agreed otherwise.

Z'HER0 may update these Terms prospectively. Where renewed acceptance is legally or operationally appropriate, the updated version will be presented accordingly.

12. No Professional Advice
Website and project materials are provided for project information and community participation. Unless expressly stated otherwise, they are not legal, financial, medical, or other professional advice.

13. Responsibility and Mandatory Rights
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability, remedies, consumer protections, privacy rights, intellectual-property rights, or other protections that applicable law does not permit the parties to waive or exclude. Z'HER0 does not use these Terms to impose a sweeping exclusion of responsibility for its own unlawful conduct.

14. Suspension and Termination
Z'HER0 may suspend or terminate access where reasonably necessary for material or repeated violations of these Terms or the Content Policy, fraud, security threats, unauthorized access, legal requirements, or protection of Z'HER0 and its users.

Account suspension or deletion does not by itself revoke rights validly granted under a separate Submission agreement, and it does not eliminate personal-data rights or lawful retention obligations.

15. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without prejudice to mandatory rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, proceedings arising from these Terms shall be brought before the competent courts in Taguig City, Philippines. This does not exclude a mandatory jurisdiction, venue, or procedural protection required by applicable law.

16. Severability and Entire Agreement
If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited or severed only to the extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue to the fullest extent permitted by law.

These Terms, together with any expressly applicable Z'HER0 policy or separate agreement, govern the website-service relationship within their respective scopes. A separate Submission agreement controls formal Submissions where applicable.

Z’HER0 Content Policy

Content & conduct

Z'HER0 CONTENT POLICY
Prepared: 30 August 2026

Rules for content and conduct using Z'HER0 website, submission, messaging, and support services.

1. Purpose
This Content Policy establishes baseline rules for material submitted to, transmitted through, or otherwise used with Z'HER0 website services. It applies alongside the Terms of Service and, for formal creative submissions, the Submission Terms.

The goal is to keep Z'HER0's submission and communication systems useful, lawful, secure, and respectful without treating ordinary creative disagreement as misconduct.

2. Illegal or Harmful Activity
Do not use Z'HER0 services to facilitate unlawful activity, credible threats, targeted harassment, exploitation, fraud, malicious deception, or conduct that violates applicable law.

3. Intellectual Property and Unauthorized Material
Do not knowingly submit material you do not have the right or permission to provide. This includes stolen artwork, unauthorized copyrighted material, confidential development files from another project, trade secrets, or material restricted by a contract or non-disclosure obligation.

Using references, tools, or generative technology does not remove your responsibility to ensure that a formal Submission can lawfully be submitted and licensed under the Submission Terms.

4. Privacy, Doxxing and Confidential Information
Do not post or submit another person's private or sensitive information without an appropriate lawful basis or permission. Do not use Z'HER0 to dox, expose credentials, distribute unlawfully obtained personal data, or disclose confidential information you are not authorized to reveal.

5. Harassment, Threats and Abusive Conduct
Do not use messaging, Submissions, support channels, or account features to threaten, stalk, repeatedly harass, intimidate, or maliciously target another person. Criticism, disagreement, and negative feedback are not automatically harassment; context, repetition, targeting, and severity matter.

6. Sexual Exploitation and Abuse
Content involving sexual exploitation or abuse of minors is prohibited. Z'HER0 may remove such material and take other action required or permitted by applicable law.

7. Impersonation and Fraud
Do not impersonate another person or organization in a deceptive manner, falsely claim authority or ownership, manipulate identity information to commit fraud, or intentionally misrepresent the origin of a Submission.

8. Spam and Manipulation
Do not flood messaging or submission systems, send repetitive unsolicited material, manipulate submission workflows, create accounts to evade restrictions, or use automation to overwhelm or distort Z'HER0 systems.

Reasonable repeated submissions or corrections made in good faith are not prohibited merely because they are similar.

9. Security and Malicious Content
Do not upload or transmit malware, malicious code, credential-stealing material, destructive payloads, or content intended to compromise users, administrators, providers, or Z'HER0 infrastructure. Do not use content fields or uploads to bypass technical or security restrictions.

10. Submissions
A formal Submission must comply with both this Content Policy and the applicable Submission Terms. Submission does not guarantee review, acceptance, implementation, attribution, compensation, or publication.

Z'HER0 may reject or remove a Submission that violates this Policy or creates a legal, security, privacy, or operational risk. Removal does not automatically determine ownership disputes or other legal rights.

11. Messaging
Authenticated messaging is intended for legitimate communication with authorized Z'HER0 administration. It must not be used for spam, harassment, threats, unauthorized advertising, malicious files, or attempts to circumvent the formal Submission process.

Creative material sent through ordinary messaging is not automatically treated as a formal Submission.

12. Enforcement
Depending on severity and context, Z'HER0 may warn a user, remove or restrict material, limit a feature, reject a Submission, suspend submission privileges, suspend an account, terminate access, preserve relevant evidence, or take action required by law.

Z'HER0 may act immediately where reasonably necessary to address serious security, legal, privacy, or safety risks. Enforcement decisions do not create a promise of individualized explanation in every case.

13. Reports and Contact
Potential violations, account abuse, or security concerns may be reported to [email protected].
General or legal questions may be sent to [email protected].

14. Changes
This Policy may be updated as Z'HER0's public services develop. Material changes should be published with a revised version or date and coordinated with the Terms of Service, Submission Terms, and Privacy Notice so their scopes remain consistent.

About Z’HER0

Zero to Hero

ABOUT Z'HER0
Prepared: 30 August 2026

What Z'HER0 Is
Z'HER0 is an independent game project built around a simple idea: Zero to Hero. You begin without a predefined heroic identity. What you acquire, equip, choose, and learn shapes what you become.

The project is being created and operated by Daryl Navora. Z'HER0 is currently a project and brand rather than a separately incorporated company.

The Core Idea
Z'HER0 is designed around equipment-driven identity. Instead of assuming that a character's role must come from a fixed class, equipment is intended to shape statistics, moves, defensive options, tactical strengths, and the identity of a build.

The central loop is about acquiring equipment, building an identity from it, entering battles, making tactical decisions, and continuing to develop through what you choose to carry and become.

Why the Name
The name Z'HER0 reflects the project's central transformation: beginning at zero and building toward a hero. The final character is the number 0, not the letter O.

That idea is meant to exist in the game's systems, not only in its title. Power and identity are earned through the player's choices rather than assumed at the beginning.

Development
Z'HER0 is under active development. Systems, artwork, balance, equipment, presentation, platforms, release plans, and other details may evolve as the game is tested and refined.

Public material should therefore be understood as a view into an evolving project unless something is expressly identified as final or released.

Community Submissions
Z'HER0 may invite players and visitors to suggest equipment, sets, names, ideas, or other creative material through designated submission tools.

Formal Submissions are governed by the separate Z'HER0 Submission Terms and Conditions. Simply visiting the site, creating an account, contacting support, or sending an ordinary message does not automatically turn everything you say into a formal Submission.

About the Creator
Z'HER0 is created and operated by Daryl Navora. The project is being developed independently with an emphasis on building its systems deliberately, testing ideas before treating them as established, and allowing the game's identity to emerge from the interaction between equipment, combat, and player choice.

This page is intended to introduce the project and its creator. Legal and privacy information is provided separately through Z'HER0's Terms of Service, Privacy Notice, Submission Terms, and Content Policy.
