5. Rewards, Skill-Based Tokens & Disclaimers
Superfast Quiz operates strictly and exclusively as a Game of Skill under applicable Indian legal standards and judicial precedents:
- Game of Skill: Quiz outcomes depend entirely on individual knowledge, cognitive memory, and answering speed. The platform does NOT host, facilitate, or promote lotteries, games of chance, gambling, or betting.

- Taxation & Withholding (India): Cash redemptions are subject to applicable Indian income tax legislation, including Section 194B/194BA of the Income Tax Act (Tax Deducted at Source - TDS), where applicable. Users are solely responsible for ensuring the accuracy of submitted bank credentials.
6. Anti-Fraud, Abuse & Security Monitoring
Superfast Quiz actively monitors and investigates suspicious platform interactions to protect competitive integrity and prevent financial abuse.
