# Terms of Service

The agreement that governs your use of the Enclave wallet software and the SureSign signing kernel.

**Effective date:** September 6, 2026

**Version:** 1.0

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Read this first.** These Terms contain a binding individual arbitration agreement and a class action waiver (Section 19), a disclaimer of warranties (Section 16), a limitation of the Developer's liability (Section 17), and a description of the non-refundable Developer Fee (Section 7). Enclave is self-custodial software: the Developer never holds your keys or your assets and cannot reverse, freeze, or recover anything. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not install or use the Software.
{% endhint %}

## 1. Parties and acceptance

1.1 These Terms of Service (the "**Terms**") are a legal agreement between you ("**you**" or "**User**") and the individual software developer who publishes Enclave under the name "**argonmining**" (the "**Developer**," "**we**," "**us**," or "**our**"). The Developer is a natural person and a United States person. The Developer is not a corporation, foundation, partnership, or other legal entity, and no other person or entity is a party to these Terms.

1.2 By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Software (defined below), or by clicking to accept these Terms where that option is presented, you (a) acknowledge that you have read and understood these Terms, the [Privacy Policy](/argon-docs/legal/privacy-policy.md), the [Risk Disclosure](/argon-docs/legal/risk-disclosure.md), and the [Third-Party Services and Non-Affiliation Notice](/argon-docs/legal/third-party-services.md), each of which is incorporated into these Terms by reference; (b) represent that you meet the eligibility requirements in Section 5; and (c) agree to be bound by these Terms.

1.3 The Software presents these Terms and the Privacy Policy immediately beneath the control you use to create a wallet, restore a wallet, or unlock a wallet, and again beneath every SureSign approval of a transaction or message. Each of those actions is taken with that notice in view and constitutes your acceptance of the version of these Terms then in effect. The Software records on your device only the version accepted, the time, and which of those controls you used; that record never leaves your device and is described in the [Privacy Policy](/argon-docs/legal/privacy-policy.md).

1.4 If you use the Software on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and "you" includes that organization.

## 2. Definitions

"**Digital Asset**" means any cryptographically secured digital unit of value or record that can be held or transferred on a Network, including KAS, iKAS, IGRA, KRC-20 tokens, KRC-721 collectibles, ERC-20 tokens, ERC-721 tokens, KNS and INS names, covenant tokens, and any similar asset.

"**Developer Fee**" has the meaning given in Section 7.

"**License**" means the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3.0 or (at your option) any later version, under which the Software's source code is made available.

"**Marks**" means the names "Enclave" and "SureSign," the Enclave logo and wordmark, and any other trade names, trademarks, service marks, and logos used by the Developer to identify the Software.

"**Network**" means a decentralized, peer-to-peer blockchain or distributed ledger network that the Software can read from or broadcast to, including the Kaspa Layer 1 network (mainnet and test networks) and the Igra EVM Layer network, and any protocol, consensus rules, or smart contract deployed on such a network.

"**Official Build**" means a binary release of the Software that is published by the Developer, either through the Chrome Web Store under the Developer's publisher account or as a signed release artifact whose hash appears in the Developer's published `SHA256SUMS`. Any build that is compiled, modified, repackaged, or redistributed by anyone other than the Developer is not an Official Build.

"**Recovery Phrase**" means the mnemonic word sequence (BIP-39) generated by the Software from which your private keys are derived, together with any optional passphrase you add to it.

"**Software**" means the Enclave wallet software, including the SureSign signing kernel, the Compact and Studio interfaces, the injected dApp provider scripts, all Official Builds, and all related source code, documentation, and updates that the Developer makes available.

"**Third-Party Service**" means any network, protocol, smart contract, application, node, indexer, application programming interface, website, relay, data feed, exchange, bridge, pool, or other product or service that is not created, operated, or controlled by the Developer, whether or not the Software is capable of interacting with it. Third-Party Services include, without limitation, those described in the [Third-Party Services and Non-Affiliation Notice](/argon-docs/legal/third-party-services.md).

"**Wallet Data**" means the data the Software stores on your device, including your encrypted vault, public addresses, labels, local activity journal, vault and escrow records, dApp permissions, and settings.

## 3. What the Software is, and what it is not

3.1 **Software you run.** The Software is a computer program that runs entirely on your own device inside your web browser. It generates and encrypts your keys locally, reads public information from Networks and Third-Party Services you select, constructs and displays transactions for your review, and signs and broadcasts only those transactions you personally authorize. The Developer does not operate any server, account system, or backend for the Software, does not have access to the Software as it runs on your device, and does not see, store, or process your Wallet Data.

3.2 **No custody, no control.** At no time does the Developer possess, hold, control, receive, transmit, or have access to your Recovery Phrase, private keys, passwords, passkeys, or Digital Assets. The Developer has no ability to access your wallet, initiate or approve a transaction, reverse or cancel a transaction, freeze or seize any asset, recover a lost Recovery Phrase or password, or restore a deleted wallet. Digital Assets you hold with the Software are held by you, on the relevant Network, under keys that only you control.

3.3 **No services.** The Developer does not provide any service to you. In particular, the Developer does not: (a) hold, transmit, exchange, or convert any currency, Digital Asset, or other value on behalf of any person; (b) operate an exchange, decentralized exchange, trading venue, bridge, liquidity pool, lending or borrowing market, staking service, mining pool, name service, messaging service, or escrow service; (c) act as an intermediary, agent, broker, dealer, market maker, custodian, trustee, fiduciary, escrow agent, arbiter, or counterparty in any transaction; (d) issue, sell, offer, or promote any Digital Asset; or (e) provide any hosted wallet, account, or recovery service. Every such function that the Software can reach is performed by a Network or a Third-Party Service under that party's own terms.

3.4 **Not a regulated financial business.** The Developer publishes software only. The Developer is not registered or licensed as, and does not hold itself out as, a money services business or money transmitter with the U.S. Financial Crimes Enforcement Network or any state regulator; a broker-dealer, investment adviser, or transfer agent with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any state; a futures commission merchant, commodity trading advisor, or swap dealer with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission; a bank, trust company, or custodian; or an equivalent under the laws of any other jurisdiction. Providing self-custodial wallet software in which the user alone controls the private keys is not, in the Developer's understanding, an activity requiring such registration; nothing in these Terms is a representation about how any regulator or court may characterize your own activities.

3.5 **No advice.** Nothing in the Software or its documentation is financial, investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice, or a recommendation, solicitation, or offer to buy, sell, hold, stake, lend, bridge, or otherwise deal in any Digital Asset. Prices, exchange rates, yields, annual percentage yields, quotes, balances, confirmation counts, names, images, and other information the Software displays are obtained from Networks and Third-Party Services, are provided for your convenience, may be inaccurate, delayed, or manipulated, and are not verified by the Developer. You alone decide what to do with your assets, and you should consult qualified professionals before doing so.

3.6 **Open source and free speech.** The Software's source code is published under the License so that anyone can read, verify, and build it. Publishing source code is protected expression. The Developer publishes the Software as an author of software, not as a provider of services to any user.

## 4. The License and these Terms

4.1 The Software's source code is licensed to the public under the License. Nothing in these Terms limits, conditions, or revokes any right granted to you under the License with respect to the source code. If there is a conflict between these Terms and the License regarding the copying, modification, or distribution of the source code, the License governs.

4.2 These Terms govern your use of Official Builds and your relationship with the Developer. They also apply to your use of any build derived from the Software to the extent you rely on the Developer's documentation or hold the Developer responsible for it. The Developer has no responsibility for any build that is not an Official Build.

4.3 The License does not grant any right to use the Marks. See Section 13.

## 5. Eligibility and restricted persons

5.1 You must be at least eighteen (18) years old, or the age of majority where you live if higher, and have full legal capacity to enter into a binding contract.

5.2 You may not use the Software if you are, or are acting on behalf of, (a) a person or entity that is the subject of sanctions administered or enforced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control, the U.S. Department of State, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, His Majesty's Treasury, or any other applicable sanctions authority, including any person on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List; (b) a person or entity located, organized, or ordinarily resident in a country, territory, or region that is the subject of comprehensive sanctions (as of the Effective Date, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions of Ukraine, in each case as designated from time to time); or (c) a person or entity owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any of the foregoing.

5.3 You are solely responsible for determining whether your use of the Software, and any transaction you undertake with it, is lawful in every jurisdiction that applies to you, and for complying with all applicable laws, including securities, commodities, money transmission, anti-money-laundering, counter-terrorist-financing, sanctions, export control, consumer protection, and tax laws. The Software is not directed at any jurisdiction where its use would be unlawful.

5.4 The Software contains cryptographic functionality and may be subject to United States export control laws and regulations. You may not export, re-export, or transfer the Software in violation of those laws, including to any destination, end user, or end use prohibited by them.

## 6. Your responsibilities

6.1 **Recovery Phrase and credentials.** You are solely responsible for creating a secure backup of your Recovery Phrase and any BIP-39 passphrase, for keeping them confidential and physically secure, and for your password, passkey, and any device or authenticator that holds them. Anyone who obtains your Recovery Phrase controls your Digital Assets. If you lose your Recovery Phrase and the device holding your encrypted vault, your Digital Assets are permanently inaccessible and no one, including the Developer, can restore them. The Developer will never ask you for your Recovery Phrase, private key, password, or passkey.

6.2 **Device security.** You are responsible for the security of the device, operating system, browser, browser profile, and other extensions on which you run the Software. Malware, a compromised browser, a malicious extension, a stolen device, or a shared profile can defeat any wallet's protections. Keep your system updated and use the Software only on devices you control and trust.

6.3 **Review before you sign.** SureSign presents a review of every transaction, message, or authorization before it is signed. You are responsible for reading that review, verifying every recipient address, amount, asset, fee, network, and condition against your own intent, and refusing anything you do not understand. Once broadcast, a Network transaction is irreversible. The Developer is not responsible for a transaction you authorized, including one sent to an incorrect address, in an incorrect amount, on an incorrect network, or under conditions you did not intend.

6.4 **Verification of addresses and data.** Addresses, names, images, token metadata, quotes, and other data may be spoofed, mistyped, expired, or malicious. You are responsible for verifying them through independent means before you rely on them.

6.5 **Official Builds and updates.** You are responsible for installing the Software only from the Developer's Chrome Web Store listing or from a release whose hash you have verified against the Developer's `SHA256SUMS`, and for keeping it updated. Builds from any other source are not Official Builds and may be malicious.

6.6 **Taxes.** You are solely responsible for determining what taxes, if any, apply to your transactions and for reporting and paying them. The Developer does not calculate, withhold, report, or remit taxes and does not provide tax statements.

6.7 **Lawful use.** You are responsible for everything you do with the Software and for the consequences, including for every transaction you sign and every message you send. See Section 12.

6.8 **Test networks.** The Software can be pointed at Kaspa and Igra test networks. Test-network assets have no value; the Developer has no responsibility for anything that occurs on a test network.

## 7. Developer Fee

7.1 **What it is.** For certain actions, the Software adds a small additional output, payable in KAS to a Kaspa address controlled by the Developer, to the Kaspa transaction you are already constructing (the "**Developer Fee**"). The Developer Fee is a non-refundable fee for your use of the Software. It is consideration for the Software as a copyrighted work and for the Developer's continued development and maintenance of it. It is not payment for any service, is not consideration for any transmission, exchange, custody, or execution, and does not create any account, subscription, relationship, or entitlement.

7.2 **Amount.** As of the Effective Date, the Developer Fee targets approximately US$0.20, converted to KAS using a public price feed at the time of the action, and is clamped to no less than 1 KAS and no more than 20 KAS. If the price feed is unavailable, the Software uses a fixed fallback of 10 KAS. The exact amount, in KAS, is shown as a separately named line on the SureSign review before you authorize the transaction, and the transaction cannot be signed without your authorization.

7.3 **When it applies.** As of the Effective Date, the Developer Fee applies on mainnet only, once per action, to the following actions, and only on the economic transaction of a multi-step action (never on an approval step, a wrap or unwrap step, an unstake, a withdrawal, a redemption, a claim, a covenant spend, or a plain transfer): creating a covenant instrument (TimeLock, Inheritance, Last Will, or Escrow), paid once by the party who opens it and never by a joining party, arbiter, or heir; Exchange actions that enter or exit the Igra network through the Kat Bridge custodial route, swap through Zealous Swap, or return bridged tokens from Igra to Kaspa across the Kat Token Bridge; and Earn actions that deposit into Lynx, supply a Kaskad market, stake KSKD, stake into a Zealous Infinity Pool, or stake a NACHO KAT. The Software may waive the Developer Fee in defined circumstances (for example, for holders of a specified collectible); any waiver is a feature of the Software version you run and may be changed or removed in a later version.

7.4 **Changes.** The Developer may change the amount, method of calculation, or applicability of the Developer Fee in any version of the Software. The Developer Fee that applies to you is the one displayed on the SureSign review of the transaction you authorize.

7.5 **Not a network or third-party fee.** The Developer Fee is separate from, and in addition to, (a) Network transaction fees, which are paid to miners or validators and never to the Developer; (b) any fee, spread, commission, or charge imposed by a Third-Party Service (for example, a bridge fee, a swap fee, a protocol fee, or a gas fee on the Igra network), which is paid to that Third-Party Service and never to the Developer; and (c) the amount you are transferring. The Developer receives no portion of any Third-Party Service fee, and no Third-Party Service receives any portion of the Developer Fee.

7.6 **Non-refundable.** Because the Developer Fee is paid by a transaction you sign and broadcast to a public Network, it is final when the transaction confirms. It is not refundable for any reason, including if the underlying action later fails, is reverted by a Third-Party Service, or does not produce the outcome you expected.

7.7 **Modified builds.** Nothing in this Section restricts any right under the License to modify the source code, including the Developer Fee logic. A build with modified Developer Fee logic is not an Official Build and may not use the Marks.

## 8. Third-Party Services and Networks

8.1 The Software is capable of interacting with Third-Party Services, including Networks, nodes, indexers, price feeds, bridges, decentralized exchanges, lending and staking protocols, mining pools, name services, messaging protocols, dApps, and relays. Each is identified, to the extent known, in the [Third-Party Services and Non-Affiliation Notice](/argon-docs/legal/third-party-services.md).

8.2 Third-Party Services are created, operated, and controlled by persons other than the Developer. The Developer does not own, operate, control, maintain, audit, endorse, warrant, or guarantee any Third-Party Service, has no responsibility for its availability, accuracy, security, legality, terms, fees, or conduct, and is not a party to any transaction or relationship between you and a Third-Party Service. The Software's ability to display information from, or construct a transaction directed to, a Third-Party Service is an interoperability feature and is not an endorsement, recommendation, referral, or partnership.

8.3 Your use of any Third-Party Service is governed solely by that Third-Party Service's own terms, policies, and fees, which you are responsible for reviewing and accepting. All support, questions, and disputes concerning a Third-Party Service are the responsibility of that Third-Party Service. The Developer does not provide support for any Third-Party Service and cannot intervene in, reverse, or remedy anything that occurs on one.

8.4 The Developer may add, change, disable, or remove any integration with a Third-Party Service in any version of the Software at any time without notice, including because a Third-Party Service has changed, become unavailable, or become unsafe in the Developer's judgment. The Software fails closed: it refuses to construct a transaction whose meaning it cannot fully interpret, and such refusal is not a defect.

8.5 **Disclosed relationship with KAT Foundation.** The Developer is a member of, and has contributed software development to, KAT Foundation, an ownerless non-profit foundation company organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands. KAT Foundation operates or publishes certain Third-Party Services the Software can reach, including Kat Bridge, the Kat Token Bridge, the Lynx liquid staking protocol, KRC-721 indexers, an IPFS image gateway, and an Igra node. Notwithstanding the Developer's relationship with KAT Foundation: (a) the Software is the Developer's own independent project and is not a product of, and is not published, controlled, endorsed, or supported by, KAT Foundation; (b) KAT Foundation does not receive any portion of the Developer Fee, and the Developer does not receive any portion of any fee charged by KAT Foundation or its services; (c) KAT Foundation's services are Third-Party Services for all purposes under these Terms; and (d) the Developer's role at KAT Foundation may present a potential conflict of interest in the selection of default integrations, which the Developer discloses here so that you may take it into account. You may replace the default node, indexer, and Igra endpoints with your own in the Software's settings.

8.6 Networks are decentralized and are controlled by no one, including the Developer. The Developer has no ability to influence a Network's consensus rules, throughput, fees, finality, forks, upgrades, outages, or the behavior of miners, validators, sequencers, attesters, or other participants, and is not responsible for any loss arising from them.

## 9. Digital Assets and risk

9.1 Digital Assets are highly volatile, may lose all value, and may become inaccessible, unusable, or worthless because of Network failures, protocol changes, smart contract defects, key loss, or regulatory action. Transactions are irreversible. Covenant instruments lock assets under conditions that no one can override. Bridges depend on their operators. Lending, staking, and liquidity protocols depend on their smart contracts and economic assumptions. The Software cannot protect you from any of these risks.

9.2 You acknowledge that you have read and understood the [Risk Disclosure](/argon-docs/legal/risk-disclosure.md), that you have the knowledge and experience to evaluate the risks of Digital Assets and the Networks and Third-Party Services you choose to use, and that you use the Software and undertake every transaction at your sole risk.

## 10. Websites and dApps

10.1 The Software places a small script on web pages that lets a website request a connection to your wallet using the KIP-12 Kaspa provider interface or the Igra EIP-1193 interface, and can pair with dApps through WalletConnect. The script reads no page content and holds no keys. No website can see your address until you approve a connection, and no website can obtain a signature until you read and approve the specific request inside the Software. You may revoke a website's access at any time in the Software's settings.

10.2 Websites and dApps are Third-Party Services. A website you connect may request transactions or signatures that are harmful to you. The Software presents each request for your review, but the Developer cannot evaluate a website's intentions and is not responsible for any request you approve or for anything a website does.

## 11. Messaging and user content

11.1 The Software's Deal Desk feature lets parties to an escrow coordinate by exchanging messages that are encrypted to the recipient, signed by you, and recorded on the Kaspa network using an open messaging protocol. Such messages, and anything else you cause to be recorded on a Network (including labels, names, memos, and payloads), are your content. You are solely responsible for it and for its lawfulness.

11.2 Network records are public and permanent. Encrypted message content is readable only by the holder of the recipient's key, but the existence, timing, size, and sender and recipient addresses of a message are public and cannot be deleted by anyone. The Developer does not receive, store, moderate, or have any means to remove your content.

11.3 Counterparties to an escrow or a Deal Desk conversation are Third-Party Services for the purposes of these Terms, and the Developer is not responsible for their conduct or for any arbiter's decision.

## 12. Prohibited uses

You agree not to use the Software, and not to permit any person to use the Software, to:

* violate any law or regulation, including laws relating to money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions, securities, commodities, fraud, tax evasion, or the proceeds of crime;
* transact with, or on behalf of, any person or jurisdiction described in Section 5.2;
* infringe, misappropriate, or violate the intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of any person;
* deceive, defraud, extort, harass, threaten, or harm any person, or send unlawful, defamatory, or abusive content through any messaging feature;
* interfere with, damage, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any Network, Third-Party Service, or other person's device or wallet;
* use the Marks, or hold out any build, service, or communication as being made, endorsed, or supported by the Developer, except as expressly permitted in Section 13;
* misrepresent your identity, eligibility, or location, or use the Software to circumvent any restriction in these Terms or imposed by a Third-Party Service; or
* engage in any activity that would cause the Developer to violate any law.

The Developer has no technical means to monitor or prevent any use of the Software, and the absence of enforcement is not a waiver.

## 13. Intellectual property and Marks

13.1 The Software is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. Except for the rights expressly granted to you under the License and these Terms, the Developer reserves all rights in the Software.

13.2 The Marks are trademarks of the Developer, whether or not registered. The License does not grant, and these Terms do not grant, any license or right to use the Marks. You may use the names "Enclave" and "SureSign" in plain text to truthfully refer to the Software (for example, "compatible with Enclave" or "a fork of Enclave"), but you may not use the Marks (a) as or in the name of any software, build, product, service, or organization; (b) in any manner that implies that the Developer made, endorsed, sponsored, or supports a build, product, or service that is not an Official Build; or (c) in any domain name, account name, store listing, or advertisement. Any build that is not an Official Build must be clearly identified by a different name and must not use the Enclave logo or wordmark.

13.3 Third-party names, marks, and logos that appear in the Software (for example, the names and logos of Networks, tokens, and Third-Party Services) belong to their respective owners, are displayed for identification only, and do not indicate any affiliation with or endorsement by or of the Developer.

13.4 If you submit ideas, suggestions, bug reports, or other feedback about the Software ("**Feedback**"), you grant the Developer a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use the Feedback for any purpose without obligation to you. Code contributions are governed by the License and the contribution terms in the repository.

## 14. Updates, changes, and discontinuation

14.1 The Developer may release updates to the Software at any time and may change or remove features, integrations, networks, fee logic, or interfaces in any update. Updates delivered through the Chrome Web Store may install automatically according to your browser settings.

14.2 The Developer has no obligation to maintain, support, update, or continue distributing the Software, and may cease doing so at any time without notice or liability. Because the Software runs locally and is open source, a cessation of distribution does not by itself affect your ability to run a copy you already have or to build one from source. Your Recovery Phrase follows the BIP-39 and BIP-32/BIP-44 standards and the Kaspa derivation conventions used by other wallets, so your Digital Assets can be restored in compatible software; you are responsible for verifying compatibility before relying on it.

## 15. Pre-release status and security review

15.1 As of the Effective Date, the Software is a release candidate. It has been tested by the Developer against the standards described in the repository, but it has not been the subject of an independent third-party security audit, and no bug bounty program is in operation. The Developer intends to seek independent review after release but makes no commitment to do so.

15.2 Software of any kind may contain defects. A defect in wallet software, in a browser, in an operating system, in a Network, or in a Third-Party Service can result in the total loss of Digital Assets. You accept this risk by using the Software.

## 16. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SOFTWARE, ITS DOCUMENTATION, AND ALL INFORMATION DISPLAYED IN OR THROUGH THE SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND "WITH ALL FAULTS," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. THE DEVELOPER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE DEVELOPER MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT THE SOFTWARE WILL BE SECURE, ERROR-FREE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR COMPATIBLE WITH ANY DEVICE, BROWSER, NETWORK, OR THIRD-PARTY SERVICE; THAT ANY DEFECT WILL BE CORRECTED; THAT ANY TRANSACTION WILL BE CONFIRMED, EXECUTED, OR PRODUCE ANY PARTICULAR RESULT; THAT ANY PRICE, RATE, YIELD, BALANCE, NAME, IMAGE, OR OTHER DISPLAYED INFORMATION IS ACCURATE OR CURRENT; OR THAT ANY NETWORK OR THIRD-PARTY SERVICE WILL FUNCTION, REMAIN AVAILABLE, HONOR ITS TERMS, OR SAFEGUARD YOUR ASSETS. THE SOFTWARE IS NOT DESIGNED, INTENDED, OR LICENSED FOR USE IN ANY SITUATION WHERE FAILURE COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL INJURY, OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY THE DEVELOPER OR ANY OTHER PERSON CREATES A WARRANTY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU; IN THAT CASE THEY APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED.

THE LICENSE CONTAINS ITS OWN DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO THE SOURCE CODE (SECTIONS 15 AND 16 OF THE GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE V3.0), WHICH APPLY INDEPENDENTLY OF, AND IN ADDITION TO, THIS SECTION.

## 17. Limitation of liability

17.1 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DIGITAL ASSETS, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF ACCESS, DIMINUTION IN VALUE, COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE, THESE TERMS, ANY NETWORK, ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE, OR ANY TRANSACTION, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE DEVELOPER WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

17.2 WITHOUT LIMITING SECTION 17.1, THE DEVELOPER IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS ARISING FROM: (A) YOUR LOSS, DISCLOSURE, OR COMPROMISE OF A RECOVERY PHRASE, PRIVATE KEY, PASSWORD, PASSKEY, OR DEVICE; (B) ANY TRANSACTION YOU AUTHORIZED, INCLUDING ONE SENT TO AN INCORRECT ADDRESS OR NETWORK OR IN AN INCORRECT AMOUNT; (C) ANY ACT, OMISSION, FAILURE, INSOLVENCY, FEE, TERM, OR CONDUCT OF ANY NETWORK OR THIRD-PARTY SERVICE, INCLUDING ANY SMART CONTRACT DEFECT, EXPLOIT, BRIDGE FAILURE, DEPEG, LIQUIDATION, SLASHING, PAUSE, OR ORACLE FAILURE; (D) ANY INACCURATE, DELAYED, OR MANIPULATED PRICE, RATE, YIELD, BALANCE, OR OTHER DATA OBTAINED FROM A THIRD PARTY; (E) ANY FORK, CONGESTION, REORGANIZATION, UPGRADE, OUTAGE, OR RULE CHANGE OF ANY NETWORK; (F) ANY PHISHING, MALWARE, MALICIOUS WEBSITE, MALICIOUS EXTENSION, OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO YOUR DEVICE OR ACCOUNTS; (G) ANY BUILD OF THE SOFTWARE THAT IS NOT AN OFFICIAL BUILD; (H) ANY CHANGE IN LAW OR REGULATORY ACTION; OR (I) ANY LOCKING OF ASSETS UNDER A COVENANT INSTRUMENT ACCORDING TO ITS TERMS.

17.3 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEVELOPER'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL DEVELOPER FEES YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO THE DEVELOPER IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, AND (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100).

17.4 THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND THE DEVELOPER, REFLECT A REASONABLE ALLOCATION OF RISK FOR FREE, OPEN-SOURCE, SELF-CUSTODIAL SOFTWARE THAT THE DEVELOPER CANNOT MONITOR OR CONTROL, AND WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU; IN THAT CASE THEY APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED.

## 18. Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Developer from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, settlements, penalties, fines, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Software; (b) any transaction, message, or content you sign, broadcast, or record; (c) your use of, or dealings with, any Network or Third-Party Service; (d) your violation of these Terms or of any law or regulation; (e) your violation of any right of a third party; or (f) any tax obligation arising from your activities. The Developer may assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification, in which case you will cooperate with the Developer in asserting any available defenses. This Section does not require you to indemnify the Developer for the Developer's own fraud or willful misconduct.

## 19. Dispute resolution: binding arbitration and class action waiver

{% hint style="danger" %}
**PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. IT REQUIRES YOU AND THE DEVELOPER TO RESOLVE DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT, AND IT WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU MAY OPT OUT WITHIN 30 DAYS AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 19.9.**
{% endhint %}

19.1 **Informal resolution first.** Before starting an arbitration or any other proceeding, you and the Developer agree to try to resolve any Dispute informally. The party raising the Dispute must send the other a written notice ("**Notice of Dispute**") that includes the sender's name and contact information, a description of the Dispute, and the specific relief sought. Notices to the Developer must be sent by email to <support@onargon.com> with the subject line "Notice of Dispute." Notices to you will be sent to the email address or other contact you provided in your Notice or in prior correspondence. You and the Developer will attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute for sixty (60) days after the Notice is received, including by at least one telephone or video conference if either party requests it. If the Dispute is not resolved within that period, either party may start an arbitration as set out below. Compliance with this Section is a condition precedent to arbitration, and any statute of limitations is tolled during the informal-resolution period.

19.2 **Agreement to arbitrate.** Except as provided in Sections 19.7 and 19.8, you and the Developer agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Software, the Developer Fee, these Terms (including their formation, existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, or scope), or the relationship between you and the Developer, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether arising before or after the Effective Date (each a "**Dispute**"), will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration before a single neutral arbitrator, rather than in court. The arbitrator, and not any court or agency, has exclusive authority to resolve all Disputes, including any Dispute about whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration, except that a court will decide any Dispute about the enforceability or validity of the class action waiver in Section 19.6.

19.3 **Federal Arbitration Act.** This Section 19 is a written agreement to arbitrate in a transaction involving interstate commerce and is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., in all respects, notwithstanding the choice of law in Section 20.

19.4 **Rules and administrator.** The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("**AAA**") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (or, if you are not a consumer, its Commercial Arbitration Rules) in effect when the arbitration is started, as modified by these Terms. The AAA rules are available at [adr.org](https://www.adr.org). If the AAA is unavailable or unwilling to administer the arbitration, the parties will agree on, or a court of competent jurisdiction will appoint, a substitute administrator. Payment of filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA rules and fee schedules, except that if the arbitrator finds your claim to be frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, you agree to reimburse the Developer for all fees the Developer paid on your behalf that you would otherwise have been required to pay under the AAA rules.

19.5 **Procedure.** The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. The seat of the arbitration is Wilmington, Delaware. Any in-person hearing will be held in Delaware or, if you are a consumer and the AAA rules so provide, in the county where you reside, or at another location the parties agree to; either party may elect to have the hearing conducted by telephone or video conference, and for claims of US$25,000 or less either party may elect to have the arbitration conducted on the basis of written submissions only unless the arbitrator determines a hearing is necessary. The arbitrator may award any relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award to the individual claimant, including injunctive or declaratory relief, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. The arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator must follow these Terms and applicable law, and any award may be vacated or corrected on the grounds provided by the Federal Arbitration Act.

19.6 **Class action and jury trial waiver.** TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND THE DEVELOPER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, OR REPRESENTATIVE IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL PARTIES. YOU AND THE DEVELOPER EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. If the class action waiver in this Section 19.6 is found to be unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), then that claim or request, and only that claim or request, will be severed from the arbitration and decided by a court under Section 20, and all other claims will be arbitrated; the parties agree that any such court proceeding will be stayed pending completion of the arbitration.

19.7 **Small claims.** Either party may bring an individual Dispute in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction instead of arbitration, provided the Dispute remains in that court and proceeds only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

19.8 **Intellectual property and injunctive relief.** Either party may bring an action in a court described in Section 20 to seek a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other equitable relief to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its intellectual property rights (including the Marks) or the unauthorized use or disclosure of its confidential information, pending a final decision by the arbitrator.

19.9 **30-day opt-out.** You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending an email to <support@onargon.com> with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" within thirty (30) days after the date you first accept these Terms (or, for a User who accepted an earlier version of these Terms without an arbitration provision, within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date). Your email must include your name and a statement that you decline this arbitration agreement. Opting out of arbitration does not affect any other provision of these Terms. If you opt out, Disputes will be resolved in the courts described in Section 20, and the class action and jury trial waivers in Section 19.6 will not apply.

19.10 **Mass arbitration.** If twenty-five (25) or more Notices of Dispute or demands for arbitration raising similar claims are filed against the Developer by or with the assistance of the same or coordinated counsel or organizations within a ninety (90) day period, the parties agree that (a) the AAA's Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules (or their successor) will apply; (b) the claims will be batched into groups of no more than fifty (50) for resolution by a single arbitrator per batch; (c) the informal resolution period in Section 19.1 will apply to each claim individually; and (d) any statute of limitations will be tolled from the date the first Notice of Dispute in the group is received until the claim is resolved. The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to implement this process and that a court may appoint a process arbitrator to resolve any disagreement about it.

19.11 **Confidentiality.** The arbitration, including all filings, evidence, and the award, will be confidential, except as necessary to enforce or challenge the award, as required by law, or as the parties agree in writing.

19.12 **Changes to this Section.** If the Developer changes this Section 19 after the date you first accepted these Terms, you may reject the change by sending written notice to <support@onargon.com> within thirty (30) days after the change takes effect, in which case the version of this Section in effect when you first accepted these Terms will continue to apply to Disputes between you and the Developer.

19.13 **Survival and severability.** This Section 19 survives any termination of these Terms or your relationship with the Developer. Except as provided in Section 19.6, if any part of this Section 19 is found to be unenforceable, the remainder will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

## 20. Governing law and venue

20.1 These Terms, and any Dispute that is not subject to arbitration, are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, and by the federal laws of the United States, including the Federal Arbitration Act. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act do not apply.

20.2 Subject to Section 19, any judicial proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Software will be brought exclusively in the state courts of the State of Delaware sitting in New Castle County or the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, and you and the Developer consent to the personal jurisdiction of and venue in those courts and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.

The Developer may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, without notice or consent, including to any successor, to any entity the Developer forms to hold the Software, or in connection with any transfer of the Software.
