FIDE Online Arena: what specifically determines bullet, blitz, rapid, and unmonitored time controls? I've been trying out the FIDE Online Arena; while I've found a lot of marketing, I find very little useful documentation (possibly because the software is new).

FIDE Online Arena has four different Elos: bullet, blitz, rapid, and unmonitored.

Q: What specifically determines bullet, blitz, rapid, and unmonitored time controls?
According to FIDE:

Blitz: &lt;= 10 minutes

Rapid: > 10 minutes and &lt;= 60 minutes

According to Wikipedia and many online chess platforms:

Bullet: &lt; 3 minutes

Blitz: >= 3 minutes and &lt; 10 minutes

Rapid: > 10 minutes and &lt;= 60 minutes
