If a player's online account is closed due to fair play violations, they must return all prize money won in PNWCC events. Violations of this agreement may result in game forfeiture, expulsion from the tournament, and sanctions imposed by PNWCC.

During online tournaments, players must adhere to PNWCC's enhanced fair play rules, including using Zoom for monitoring via webcam when required. All games will be reviewed by Chess.com or Lichess.org's Fair Play teams for potential violations, and prize-winning games will be certified by PNWCC’s Fair Play Committee.
