4. Account and Steam
Certain OldRust features may require a Steam account.
The User is solely responsible for:
- the security of their account;
- keeping Steam access credentials secure;

5. Rules for Using the Services
The User agrees to use OldRust lawfully and in accordance with this Agreement, the rules of the game servers, and other officially published Project rules.
The User is prohibited from:
- using cheats or other prohibited software;
- using software or devices to gain an unfair advantage;
- interfering with the operation of the game client, launcher, anti-cheat, or server infrastructure;
- attempting to disable, modify, or bypass OldRust protection systems;
- exploiting vulnerabilities, bugs, or undocumented service behavior to gain an advantage or cause damage;

Additional rules governing conduct directly on game servers may be published separately.
6. Anti-Cheat and Protection Systems
To ensure fair play and security, OldRust may use proprietary and third-party anti-cheat and technical protection systems.
By using OldRust game servers and the corresponding game client, the User agrees to the operation of such systems to the extent described in the OldRust Privacy Policy.
The User is prohibited from:
- disabling the anti-cheat system;
- interfering with anti-cheat operation;
- modifying anti-cheat components;
- attempting to bypass detection methods;
- falsifying data transmitted to the protection system;
- using software or hardware to bypass anti-cheat protection;
- analyzing anti-cheat systems for the purpose of developing or distributing methods of bypassing them.
The Administration may use automated and manual analysis methods to detect violations.
Anti-cheat results may be used by the Administration when reviewing possible violations of Project rules.
The technical operation of anti-cheat systems, detection algorithms, signatures, heuristics, internal configurations, and other information whose disclosure may facilitate circumvention of protection are confidential technical information of the Project and are not subject to disclosure except where expressly required by applicable law.
The processing of personal and technical data by anti-cheat systems is governed by the separate OldRust Privacy Policy.
7. Suspension and Restriction of Access
If the User violates this Agreement, game server rules, or security requirements, the Administration may take measures against the User.
Depending on the circumstances, such measures may include:
- warning;
- temporary restriction of certain features;
- temporary suspension;
- permanent suspension;
- restriction of access to certain game servers;
- restriction of access to other OldRust services.
The Administration may take into account the nature of the violation, its severity, recurrence, and other circumstances.
An attempt to circumvent an imposed suspension may be treated as a separate violation.
The Administration may also temporarily restrict access to an account or certain features where there are reasonable grounds to suspect account compromise, fraud, a technical attack, or another security threat.
8. Gameplay
The User understands and agrees that OldRust is a continuously evolving gaming Project.
The Administration may change:
- game mechanics;
- balance;
- item characteristics;
- maps;
- plugins;
- game modes;
- number of servers;
- server schedules;
- resource gathering settings;
- in-game economy;
- available goods and privileges;
- technical parameters;
- interface;
- other gameplay elements.
Such changes do not, by themselves, constitute grounds for compensation or a refund for digital goods or services previously used, except where otherwise required by applicable law.
9. Wipes and Preservation of Game Progress
The User understands that Rust gameplay and OldRust servers involve periodic wipes.
As a result of a wipe, the following may be deleted or reset:
- constructed objects;
- in-game items;
- resources;
- character progress;
- learned items;
- container contents;
- other game world data.
The schedule and conditions of wipes are determined by the Administration and may change.
Game resources and progress that are, by their nature, intended to exist only during a single game cycle or wipe are not considered permanently owned digital assets of the User.
10. In-Game Store
The User may top up the internal balance and purchase digital goods and services through the official in-game store:
oldrust.store
The assortment, description, price, and duration of goods or services are specified directly in the in-game store.
Depending on the specific offer, the User may purchase:
- in-game privileges;
- cosmetic items;
- additional gameplay features;
- digital items;
- other goods or services offered in the store.
Before completing a transaction, the User must independently review:
- the top-up amount;
- the description of the purchased good or service;
- the price;
- the duration;
- the terms of provision;
- the account to which the top-up or purchase will be credited.
By making payment, the User confirms that they have reviewed the specified information.
11. OldRust Internal Balance
The User may top up the internal balance of their account for subsequent purchases of OldRust goods and services.
The internal balance:
- is intended solely for use within OldRust services;
- is used to purchase goods and services available in the in-game store;
- is not a bank account or bank deposit;
- is not intended to hold funds for subsequent withdrawal;
- does not accrue interest or other financial returns;
- may not be exchanged by the User for cash or non-cash funds, except where expressly required by applicable law;
- may not be transferred to another account unless such functionality is separately provided by OldRust.
The displayed internal balance amount is information within the OldRust system and is used solely for settlements related to Project goods and services.
12. Prices and Payment Procedure
Current prices for balance top-ups, goods, and services are specified on oldrust.store.
The Administration may change the prices of goods and services.
Price changes do not apply to transactions that have already been completed.
Payment may be made through third-party payment providers and payment methods available at the time of the transaction.
The actual range of available payment methods may depend on:
- the User’s region;
- currency;
- the payment provider used;
- technical availability of the relevant payment method.
When processing a payment, the User may also be required to accept the terms of the relevant payment provider.
Fees charged by a bank, payment system, or other intermediary, if applicable, may be calculated separately from the price specified by OldRust.
13. Balance Top-Ups and Refunds
Before confirming a top-up of the internal balance, the User must independently verify:
- the selected top-up amount;
- the account being used;
- the payment method;
- the payment currency;
- other information displayed before the transaction is completed.
Once payment has been successfully processed and funds have been credited to the OldRust internal balance, the top-up transaction is considered completed.
Funds successfully credited to the OldRust internal balance are not refundable, may not be exchanged for money, and may not be withdrawn from the system at the User’s initiative, except where a refund is expressly required by applicable law.
In particular, a refund may be considered in the event of:
- an erroneous duplicate charge;
- a successful charge without the corresponding amount being credited to the internal balance;
- a technical error by OldRust or the payment provider;
- an unauthorized transaction confirmed in accordance with the applicable procedure;
- other cases where a refund is expressly required by applicable law.
After internal balance funds have been used to purchase a digital item, service, in-game item, or privilege, the used amount is non-refundable, except where the User’s corresponding right is expressly provided by applicable law.
The following do not, by themselves, constitute grounds for a refund:
- the User changing their mind after a successful top-up;
- the User selecting an incorrect amount where the transaction was otherwise correctly executed;
- no longer wishing to use OldRust;
- changes to game balance;
- changes to the characteristics of an in-game item;
- a wipe;
- modification or closure of a particular game server;
- expiration of a temporary privilege;
- suspension of the User for violating OldRust rules;
- inability to use the service due to actions or technical issues on the User’s side.
To request review of a payment made as a result of a technical error or an unauthorized transaction, the User must contact OldRust’s official support service and provide the information necessary to identify the relevant transaction.
14. Provision of Digital Goods and Services
A digital good or service is considered provided upon:
- successful crediting to the account;
- activation;
- granting of the relevant privilege;
- enabling access to a feature;
- otherwise providing the User with the ability to use the good or service as described.
In some cases, provision occurs automatically.
If a good was not provided due to a technical error, the User may contact OldRust support.
The Administration may request information necessary to verify the payment and the fact that the good was provided.
If the issue is confirmed, the Administration may:
- provide the good again;
- restore the relevant service;
- credit the required amount to the internal balance;
- use another reasonable method to correct the technical error.
15. Duration of Goods and Privileges
Certain goods or privileges may be provided for a limited period.
The duration is specified in the description of the relevant offer on oldrust.store.
Once the specified period expires, the relevant feature automatically ceases to apply.
The User is responsible for reviewing the duration before purchase.
Expiration of a previously specified period does not constitute grounds for a refund.
16. Promo Codes, Bonuses, and Promotions
OldRust may run promotions and provide promo codes, bonuses, discounts, and other special offers.
The terms of such offers may be established separately.
The Administration may determine:
- the expiration period of a promo code;
- the number of times it may be used;
- the group of users eligible to use it;
- the goods to which it applies;
- the minimum purchase amount;
- other terms of a specific promotion.
Promo codes, bonuses, and other free credits have no independent monetary value and may not be exchanged for money unless otherwise expressly stated by the Administration or required by applicable law.
The Administration may cancel a bonus granted as a result of a technical error, abuse, or violation of the relevant promotion terms.
17. Maintenance and Service Availability
The Administration strives to ensure stable operation of OldRust, but does not guarantee uninterrupted and continuous availability of all services.
Operation of the website, in-game store, launcher, or game servers may be temporarily restricted due to:
- maintenance;
- updates;
- bug fixes;
- incidents;
- network issues;
- DDoS attacks and other external attacks;
- hosting provider issues;
- CDN issues;
- actions of third parties;
- force majeure events.
The Administration may perform scheduled and unscheduled maintenance.
Temporary technical unavailability of a service does not, by itself, constitute grounds for an automatic refund.
18. Changes to and Termination of Services
The Administration may modify, update, temporarily suspend, or discontinue individual features, game servers, or OldRust services.
In the event of material changes, the Administration may, where possible, notify users through the Project’s official information resources.
The Administration does not guarantee the indefinite existence of any particular:
- game server;
- mode;
- feature;
- item;
- plugin;
- mechanic;
- privilege;
- interface.
If discontinuation of a particular paid service creates obligations toward the User under applicable law, such obligations will be fulfilled to the extent required by law.

27. Dispute Resolution
In the event of any claim or disagreement, the User is encouraged to first contact OldRust support in an attempt to resolve the matter.
The Parties seek to resolve disputes through negotiation.
If a dispute cannot be resolved in this manner, it will be resolved in accordance with applicable law and the rules governing the competent court.
This Agreement does not restrict the User’s right to apply to government authorities or courts in cases provided by law.
