5.2 Redeemable Points are Merely Licensed Virtual Goods and Have No Monetary Value. Redeemable Points are virtual goods licensed directly to you and owned at all times by SQUARE ENIX. Redeemable Points have no monetary value, and you do not have any personal property rights in Redeemable Points.

In other words, you may redeem Redeemable Points for as long as SQUARE ENIX chooses to make the Redeemable Point system available, which SQUARE ENIX has no obligation to do. Accordingly, we encourage you to redeem your Redeemable Points sooner rather than later.

5.8 Management of Redeemable Points. You agree that SQUARE ENIX has the absolute right to manage, modify, regulate and control any Redeemable Point system in its sole discretion.
