Messaging

The Interface and Protocol may enable us to send messages to Members who have indicated interest in an opportunity on the Interface. We are not obliged to review messages sent from Members, and every Member is personally responsible for all the messages the Member sends through the Interface and the Protocol. The Member agrees and warrants that the Member will not send messages in breach of these Terms and/or any terms and conditions applicable to the Interface, the Protocol, and/or the Services, and will in particular refrain from sending messages to harass or threaten other Members.

Monitoring and Enforcement

We have the right to take appropriate legal action, including without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Interface, Protocol, or Services.

Without limiting the foregoing, we have the right to cooperate fully with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity or other information of anyone using or accessing the Interface or Protocol. You agree to waive and hold harmless us and our affiliates, licensees, agents, and other service providers from any claims resulting from any action taken by any of the foregoing parties during, or taken as a consequence of, investigations by either such parties or law enforcement authorities.

However, we cannot review interactions or activities before they are executed through the Interface or the Protocol, and, given the nature of blockchain and smart contract activity, cannot ensure prompt removal or rectification of objectionable interactions or activities after they have been executed. Accordingly, we assume no liability for any action or inaction regarding transmissions, communications, transactions, blockchain operations, or content provided by any user or third party. To the fullest extent provided by law, we have no liability or responsibility to anyone for performance or non performance of the activities described in this section, nor any harm or damages created by others’ interactions with any blockchain underlying the Protocol.

Compliance with Laws and Regulations

You agree and acknowledge that it is your responsibility to comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to any Services or transactions you use through the Interface or the Protocol, including without limitation the reporting of any transactions, and the calculation and payment of all applicable taxes within any jurisdiction relevant to your situation. If you have any doubts about whether or which laws and regulations apply to your circumstances, you should seek independent legal, accounting, or taxation advice.

We are not responsible for collecting, reporting, withholding, or remitting any taxes arising from any transaction you conduct with us, but will comply with any reporting or withholding obligations that apply to us, including any reporting required under the Common Reporting Standard, Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements, or Automatic Exchange of Information agreements. For that purpose, each time you access the Interface or the Protocol or conduct a Transaction with us, any information or representation you have made as to your tax residency is deemed to have been repeated at that time, and we will rely upon it for such reporting purposes.

Our Notifications to You

Pricing and final agreement: All prices provided by us, whether through the Interface, the Services, our communications, or any other means, are for reference purposes only and do not constitute a binding offer.

Our commitment to regulatory compliance: We intend to operate in full compliance with applicable laws and regulations and obtain any necessary licenses and approvals in key markets, as and when needed. Regulatory licenses and/or approvals may be required in certain jurisdictions in which relevant activities may take place. It Is not possible to guarantee, and we make no assurances, that any such licenses or approvals will be obtained within a particular timeframe or at all. This means that trading in certain digital assets may not be available in certain markets, or at all.

No third-party affiliation or endorsements: References in the Interface or the Services to specific companies and platforms are for illustrative purposes only.

Jurisdiction, Governing Law, Resolving Disputes, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver

Please contact us first. We will seek to address your concerns without resorting to formal legal proceedings whenever possible.

You shall attempt in good faith to mutually resolve any and all disputes, whether of law or fact, and of any nature whatsoever arising from or with respect to these Terms.

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with the Services, the Interface, and the Protocol shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Republic of Panama.

You agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and the Company that arises in connection with, or relating in any way, to these Terms, Interface, the Protocol, or Services (whether by contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory) will be determined by a mandatory final and binding individual arbitration rather than a class action.

Any controversy or dispute which arise out or is related to this contract, and the interpretation, application, performance and termination thereof, must be decided by Arbitration, following an attempt at Conciliation, administered by the Panama Conciliation and Arbitration Centre in accordance with its procedural rules. The number of arbitrators shall be one (1). The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English.

You agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential. The existence of arbitration, or any non-public information provided in the arbitration and any submissions, orders, or awards made in the arbitration will not be disclosed to any non-parties except the tribunal, the parties to the arbitration, their counsel, experts, witnesses, accountants and auditors, insurers and reinsurers, and any other person necessary to facilitate the arbitration. Notwithstanding the preceding, a party may disclose information to the extent that disclosure may be required to fulfil a legal duty, protect or pursue a legal right, or enforce or challenge an award in bona fide legal proceedings. This confidentiality provision will survive the termination of these Terms, and any arbitration brought under these Terms.

You agree that any claims relevant to these Terms, or your relationship with us will be brought against the other party in arbitration on an individual basis only and not as a plaintiff or class member in a purported class or representative action. You further agree to waive any right for such claims to be brought, heard, or arbitrated as a class, collective, representative, or private attorney general action, to the extent permissible by applicable laws. Combining or consolidating individual arbitrations into a single arbitration is not permitted without our consent.

You agree that we would be irreparably damaged if these Terms were not specifically enforced. Therefore, in addition to any other remedy we may have at law, and not withstanding our agreement to arbitrate disputes, we are entitled without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to your violation of these Terms in any court of competent jurisdiction.

We reserve the right to update, modify, revise, suspend, or make future changes to Clause 16 regarding the parties’ agreement on how to settle disputes, subject to applicable laws. You hereby consent and agree that it is your responsibility to ensure that your understanding of this Clause 16 is up to date. Subject to applicable laws, your continued use of the Services and the site will be interpreted as your acceptance of any modifications to Clause 16 regarding the agreement to arbitrate. You agree that if you object to the modifications to Clause 16, we may block access to your Account pending closure of your Account. In such circumstances, these Terms prior to modification will remain in full force and affect the pending closure of your accessibility.

Your interactions with other users found on or through the Site or the Services, including but not limited to payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties, or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such individuals. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline interaction with any of these third parties.

If you have a dispute with one or more users related to us, the Site, or the Services, YOU RELEASE US FROM CLAIMS, DEMANDS, AND DAMAGES OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES. IN ENTERING INTO THIS RELEASE YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY PROTECTIONS (WHETHER STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) THAT WOULD OTHERWISE LIMIT THE COVERAGE OF THIS RELEASE TO INCLUDE THOSE CLAIMS WHICH YOU MAY KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN YOUR FAVOR AT THE TIME OF AGREEING TO THIS RELEASE.

Third Party Rights

No third party shall have any rights to enforce any terms contained herein.

Third Party Engagements and Governing Agreements

Certain Products and Services offered by the Company may involve transactions facilitated by third parties. Where this applies, these relationships will be governed by separate agreement between the Company and the third party (“Third Party Agreements”).

Additionally, certain Products and Services offered by the Company may involve underlying product offerors. Where this applies, these relationships will be governed by separate agreements with the underlying product offerors (“Underlying Agreements”). In the event of any inconsistency or conflict, the terms set forth in the Underlying Agreements will prevail over any conflicting provisions in these Terms.

The Company is not liable for actions, omissions, or representations made by third parties unless explicitly stated in separate agreements. You are advised to review the additional terms provided by third parties that may apply to the Products and Services.

Waiver

The failure of our right to seek recovery from your violation of these Terms of any provisions of applicable terms will not constitute a waiver by us of any subsequent breach or violation by you or of the provision itself.
