This clause is consequential because it places a ceiling on all recoverable damages from FanDuel regardless of the nature or severity of the harm, and that ceiling may be zero for users who paid nothing.
Interpretive note: The second what_this_means item (zero liability for non-paying users) is a direct logical consequence of the canonical claim's 'if any' qualifier and is grounded in the evidence span.
The updated terms now prohibit participation in FanDuel Fantasy contests for residents of Alberta, Canada, in addition to the existing prohibition in Ontario. Users in Alberta who currently hold accounts or have entered contests must cease participation. The terms also restructure eligibility representations to consolidate Louisiana parish restrictions and backup withholding tax language into a single section, clarifying the jurisdictional and tax compliance requirements users must warrant. If you are located in Alberta, you are no longer eligible to participate in FanDuel Fantasy contests under the updated terms.
