This Agreement applies in addition to the Steam Subscriber Agreement (https://store.steampowered.com/subscriber_agreement/) and the Steam Terms of Service, which are entered into between you and Valve Corporation. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Steam Subscriber Agreement, the Steam Subscriber Agreement shall prevail with respect to the Steam platform, payment, refunds, and accounts.
