  • Avoid playing while distracted or walking: Walking while playing can significantly increase the risk of accidental exposure of unintended areas within the camera's view, potentially compromising your privacy, and significantly increases the risk of bodily accidents. User instructed to pay attention to your surroundings while playing.

  • Privacy Protection: These guidelines help ensure a safe and private gaming experience by minimizing risks of unintended areas within the camera's view and reducing the risk of bodily accidents.
