PRIVACY POLICY

Our Privacy Policy found here describes the ways we collect, use, store and disclose your personal information, and is hereby incorporated by this reference into these Terms. You agree to the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy

THE PLATFORM

Accessing the Platform through a Web3 wallet

To most access and use the Platform, Users must utilize an Ethereum/Web3 such as MetaMask. MetaMask (and similar Web3 wallets), is an electronic wallet, which allows Users to purchase cryptocurrencies, store, and engage in transactions on the Ethereum Blockchain (a “Wallet”). Users will not be able to engage in any transactions on the Platform other than through a Wallet the User controls. The Platform will only recognize you as a User, and Users will only be able to interact with the Platform, if the User’s Wallet is unlocked and connected to the Platform. There is no other way to sign up as a User, or to interact directly with the Platform.

Transactions Are Recorded on the Public Ethereum Blockchain

Transactions that take place on the Platform are managed and confirmed via the Ethereum blockchain. The User understands that its Ethereum public address will be made publicly visible whenever it engages in a transaction on the Platform. We neither own nor control MetaMask, or any other Wallet, the Ethereum network, or any other third-party site, product, or service that Users might access, visit, or use for the purpose of enabling the user to access and utilize the various features of the Platform. We will not be liable for the acts or omissions of any such third parties, nor will we be liable for any damage that a User may suffer as a result of its transactions or any other interaction with any such third parties.

Gas

All User transactions on the Platform, including without limitation Minting, Charging, purchasing, offering, or confirming, are facilitated by Smart Contracts existing on the Ethereum network. The Ethereum network requires the payment of a transaction fee (a “Gas fee”) for every transaction that occurs on the Ethereum network, and thus every transaction occurring on the Platform. The value of the Gas Fee changes, often unpredictably, and is entirely outside of the control of the Company or the Platform. User acknowledges that under no circumstances will a contract, agreement, offer, sale, bid, or other transaction on the Platform be invalidated, revocable, retractable, or otherwise unenforceable on the basis that the Gas Fee for the given transaction was unknown, too high, or otherwise unacceptable to User.

The Platform Is Property of Company

User acknowledges and agrees that Company (or, as applicable, our licensors) own all legal right, title and interest in and to all elements of the Platform. The graphics, design, systems, methods, information, computer code, software, services, “look and feel”, organization, compilation of the content, code, data, and all other elements of the Platform (collectively, the “Company Materials”) are owned by Charged Particles, and are protected by copyright, trade dress, patent, and trademark laws, international conventions, other relevant intellectual property and proprietary rights, and applicable laws. All Company Materials are the copyrighted property of Charged Particles or its licensors, and all trademarks, service marks, and trade names contained in the Company Materials are proprietary to Charged Particles or its licensors. Except as expressly set forth herein, User’s use of the Platform does not grant User ownership of or any other rights with respect to any content, code, data, or other materials that User may access on or through the Platform. Company reserves all rights in and to the Company Materials not expressly granted to Users in the Terms.

The Company May Use and Share All User Feedback

Users may choose to submit comments, bug reports, ideas or other feedback about the Platform, including without limitation about how to improve the Platform (collectively, “Feedback”). By submitting any Feedback, You agree that Company is free to use such Feedback at its discretion and without additional compensation to You, and to disclose such Feedback to third parties (whether on a non-confidential basis, or otherwise). You hereby grant Company a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide license under all rights necessary for Company to incorporate and use Your Feedback for any purpose.

Company is a Non-Custodial Service Provider

The Smart Contracts and the Site facilitate Purchasers’ purchase of NFTs, Artists’ Minting of NFTs and Users’ Charging / Energizing of NFTs but Company and its affiliates, the Platform, and the Smart Contracts are not the custodians of any NFTs Minted, Energized / Charged, bought, or sold on the Platform. The User understands and acknowledges that the Smart Contracts do not give Company custody, possession, or control of any NFT or cryptocurrency at any time for any the purpose. You affirm that you are aware and acknowledge that Company is a non-custodial service provider and has designed this Platform to be directly accessible by the Users without any involvement or actions taken by Company or any third-party.

External Sites

The Platform or Site may include hyperlinks to other websites or resources (collectively, “External Sites”), which are provided solely as a convenience for the Users. Company has no control over any External Sites. You acknowledge and agree that Company is not responsible for the availability of any External Sites, and that Company does not endorse any advertising, products, or other materials on or made available from any External Sites. Furthermore, You acknowledge and agree that Company is not liable for any loss or damage which may be incurred as a result of the availability or unavailability of the External Sites, or as a result of any reliance placed by User upon the completeness, accuracy or existence of any advertising, products or other materials on, or made available from, any External Sites.

Under no circumstances shall Company or indemnified persons in accordance with these Terms be responsible or liable for any direct or indirect losses (including loss of profits, business or opportunities), damages or costs suffered by you or any other person or entity due to any such termination, suspension or restriction of access to any Account(s).

Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the value of NFT Creations, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. We cannot guarantee that any purchasers of NFT Creations will not lose money. You also acknowledge that the cost of transacting on such technologies is variable and may increase at any time causing impact to any activities taking place on the Ethereum blockchain.

You acknowledge and agree that you will access and use the Platform at your own risk. The risk of loss in trading digital assets can be substantial. You should, therefore, carefully consider whether such creating, buying or selling digital assets is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources. By using the Platform, you represent that you have been, are and will be solely responsible for making your own independent appraisal and investigations into the risks of a given transaction and the underlying digital assets. You represent that you have sufficient knowledge, market sophistication, professional advice and experience to make your own evaluation of the merits and risks of any transaction conducted via the Platform or any underlying digital asset. You accept all consequences of using the Platform, including the risk that you may lose access to your digital assets indefinitely. All transaction decisions are made solely by you. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, we accept no responsibility whatsoever for and will in no circumstances be liable to you in connection with use of the Platform for performing digital asset transactions. Under no circumstances will the operation of all or any portion of the Platform be deemed to create a relationship that includes the provision or tendering of investment advice.

 Nothing in this Agreement shall exclude or limit liability of either party for fraud, death or bodily injury caused by negligence, violation of laws, or any other activity that cannot be limited or excluded by legitimate means.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL COMPANY BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFIT OR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT, THE SITE, PRODUCTS OR THIRD PARTY SITES AND PRODUCTS, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES RELATED TO LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR LOSS OF DATA, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE AND EVEN IF COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. ACCESS TO, AND USE OF, THE SITES, PRODUCTS OR THIRD-PARTY SITES AND PRODUCTS ARE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE OR LOSS OF DATA RESULTING THEREFROM.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF COMPANY ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SITE, CONTENT, NFTS, OR ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PURCHASED ON THE SITE EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) $100 OR (B) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO COMPANY FOR THE SERVICES IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS OUT OF WHICH LIABILITY AROSE. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY OF COMPANY FOR ANY INJURY CAUSED BY FRAUD OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. Some jurisdictions also limit disclaimers or limitations of liability for personal injury from consumer products, so this limitation may not apply to personal injury claims.

INDEMNIFICATION

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Company, and its respective past, present and future employees, officers, directors, contractors, consultants, equity holders, suppliers, vendors, service providers, parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, representatives, predecessors, successors and assigns (individually and collectively, the “Company Parties”), from and against all actual or alleged third party claims, damages, awards, judgments, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, interest, fees, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses) and costs (including, without limitation, court costs, costs of settlement and costs of pursuing indemnification and insurance), of every kind and nature whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, or suspected or unsuspected, in law or equity, whether in tort, contract or otherwise (collectively, “Claims”), including, but not limited to, damages to property or personal injury, that are caused by, arise out of or are related to (a) your use or misuse of the Site, Content or NFTs, (b) any Feedback you provide, (c) your violation of these Terms of Use, and (d) your violation of the rights of a third party, including another user or MetaMask.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Mediation

Prior to commencing any arbitration related to this Agreement, you must first contact our Customer Service Department at [e-mail]. If our Customer Service Department is unable to achieve a satisfactory resolution, then you must notify us in writing about your claim by sending the accompanying form by certified mail to:

Charged Particles

Attn: Legal

3 Stiles Ave

Aurora, ON L4G7N4

Canada

It is important that you provide as much information as possible. Our representative will respond within thirty (30) days of receiving this notice. If the matter is not resolved to your satisfaction, then you may commence arbitration as delineated below.

Binding Arbitration

Any dispute, claim, interpretation, controversy, or issues of public policy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this section, will be determined exclusively by arbitration held in Denver, Colorado, and will be governed exclusively by the Colorado Uniform Arbitration Act, C.R.S. §§ 13-22-201, et seq. (the “CUAA”).

The arbitrator will be selected from the roster of arbitrators at Judicial Arbiter Group, Inc. in Denver, Colorado (“JAG”), unless the Parties agree otherwise. If the Parties do not agree on the selection of a single arbitrator within ten (10) days after a demand for arbitration is made, then the arbitrator will be selected by JAG from among its available professionals. Arbitration of all disputes and the outcome of the arbitration will remain confidential between the Parties except as necessary to obtain a court judgment on the award or other relief or to engage in collection of the judgment.

The Parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts located in Denver, Colorado, with respect to this section to compel arbitration, to confirm an arbitration award or order, or to handle court functions permitted under the CUAA. The Parties irrevocably waive defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or other proceeding. The Parties may seek recognition and enforcement of any state court judgment confirming an arbitration award or order in any United States state court or any court outside the United States or its territories having jurisdiction with respect to recognition or enforcement of such judgment.

This provision for arbitration will not preclude a party from seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive relief (“Provisional Relief”) in a court of law while arbitration proceedings are pending in order to protect its rights pending a final determination by the arbitrator, nor will the filing of such an action for Provisional Relief constitute waiver by a party of its right to seek arbitration. Any Provisional Relief granted by such court will remain effective until otherwise modified by the arbitrator.

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF AN INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS. ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER SITE USERS

You can choose to reject this agreement to arbitrate. You must notify Company in writing within thirty (30) days of the date that you first access the Site if you do not wish to be bound by this arbitration agreement. Your written notification must include your name and address, as well as a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with Company through arbitration. Mail your written notification by certified mail to:

This arbitration agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted and will survive termination of these Terms.

Attorneys’ Fees and Costs

In addition to any relief, order, or award that is entered by the arbiter, any Party found to be the substantially losing Party in any Proceeding shall be required to pay the reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of any Party determined to be the substantially prevailing Party, and such losing Party, shall also reimburse or pay any of the arbitrator’s fees and expenses incurred by the prevailing Party in any arbitration. In the context of this Agreement, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs shall include but not be limited to:

1. legal fees and costs, the fees and costs of witnesses, accountants, experts, and other professionals, and any other forum costs incurred during, or in preparation for, a Proceeding;

2. all of the foregoing whether incurred before or after the initiation of a Proceeding; and

3. all such fees and costs incurred in obtaining Provisional Relief.

It is understood that certain time entries that may appear in the billing records of such Party’s legal counsel may be redacted to protect attorney-client or work-product privilege, and this will not prevent recovery for the associated billings (and if necessary, the arbitrator may require that such records be submitted to the arbitrator for in camera review by the arbitrator).

Governing Law

This Agreement, the use of the Site, the Services, and the Platform shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Wyoming, as if these Terms of Use are a contract wholly entered into and wholly performed within the State of Wyoming, excluding all choice of law provisions. With respect to disputes not properly subject to binding arbitration as set forth above, the Parties hereby exclusively and irrevocably submit to, and waive any objection against, the personal jurisdiction and venue of the State Courts of the State of Colorado located in the City and County of Denver, Colorado.

2. If an unenforceable provision is modified or disregarded in accordance with this Section by holding the rest of the Agreement will remain in effect as written;

3. By holding that any unenforceable provision will remain as written in any circumstances other than those in which the provision is held to be unenforceable; and

4. If modifying or disregarding the unenforceable provision would result in a failure of an essential purpose of this Agreement, by holding the entire Agreement unenforceable.

Upon the determination that any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible
