1. INTRODUCTION
These Terms of Use, together with any supplemental terms and policies incorporated herein, constitute a legally binding agreement (collectively, the “Terms” or “Terms of Use”) made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”) and DTX Trading, Inc.

The Services include any distributed application running on one or more blockchain networks (the “Blockchains”), using smart contracts (each, a “Smart Contract”). The Services also enable users to use or interact with Smart Contracts involving other digital assets, such as fungible tokens, cards, characters, and other resources ( “Digital Assets”). These Digital Assets can be visualized via the Services and other third-party services.
The Services are not intended for distribution to any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation, or which would subject us to any registration requirement or other regulation within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, you are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable laws when you access and/or use the Services.

These Terms of Use and your use of the Services are governed by and constructed in accordance with the laws of the Singapore, as applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed in the Singapore, without regard to its conflicts of law principles.
13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
a. Informal Negotiations. To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Use (each a “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally and in good faith for at least the lesser of (i) the time necessary to resolve such Dispute or (ii) thirty (30) days before initiating the arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
b. Binding Arbitration. If a Party is unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Disputes (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitration compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, we will pay all the arbitration fees and expenses. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration can take place in the Singapore. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgement on the award entered by the arbitrator. If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the courts located in the Singapore, and the Parties hereby consent to and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to Services be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of the action arose. Each Party agrees that, if this provision is found to be unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed or jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
c. Exceptions to the Informal Negotiations and Arbitration. The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provision concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Dispute seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, the intellectual property rights of a Party, (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. Each Party agrees that, if any portion of this provision is found to be unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be unenforceable, and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction located in the Singapore.

16. ASSUMPTION OF RISK
You accept and acknowledge each of the following:
The prices of blockchain assets are extremely volatile. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the value of your Digital Assets, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. We cannot guarantee that any purchasers of Digital Assets will not lose money.
You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your Digital Asset-related transactions. DTX.trade is not responsible for determining the taxes that apply to your transactions on the Services.
The Services do not store, send, or receive Digital Assets. This is because Digital Assets exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained on the applicable Digital Asset’s supporting blockchain. Any transfer of Digital Assets occurs only on the supporting blockchain, and not on the Services.
There are risks associated with using Digital Assets and cryptocurrencies, including, but not limited to, the risk of hardware, software and Internet connections, the risk of malicious software introduction, and the risk that third parties may obtain unauthorized access to information stored within your wallet. You accept and acknowledge that we will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using the Blockchains or any other blockchain, however caused.
A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems (including without limitation the Blockchains) could negatively impact the development of the DTX.trade ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of Digital Assets.
The legal and regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and tokens is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the DTX.trade ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of Digital Assets.
Upgrades to the Blockchains may have unintended, adverse effects on the Services, including any Digital Assets made available by DTX.trade.
17. INVESTIGATIONS
If we become aware of any possible violations by you of these Terms of Use, we reserve the right to investigate such violations. If, as a result of the investigation, we believe that criminal activity may have occurred, we reserve the right to refer the matter to, and to cooperate with, any and all applicable legal authorities. We are entitled, except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, to disclose any information or materials on or in the Services, including your Content, in DTX.trade’s possession in connection with your use of the Services, to (i) comply with applicable laws, legal process or governmental request; (ii) enforce these Terms of Use, (iii) respond to any claims that your Content violates the rights of third parties, (iv) respond to your requests for customer service, or (v) protect the rights, property or personal safety of DTX.trade, its users, or the public, and all law enforcement or other government officials, as DTX.trade in its sole discretion believes to be necessary or appropriate. By agreeing to these Terms of Use, you hereby provide your irrevocable consent to such monitoring. You acknowledge and agree that you have no expectation of privacy concerning your use of the Services, including without limitation text, voice, or video communications.
18. INDEMNIFICATION
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless DTX.trade and the DTX.trade 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 or associated with pursuing indemnification and insurance), of every kind and nature whatsoever arising out of or related to these Terms of Use or your use of the Service or the Service, 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 Service, User Content, or any Digital Assets, (b) any Submissions you provide, (c) your violation of these Terms of Use, and (d) your violation of the rights of any third party, including another user. You agree to promptly notify DTX.trade of any third-party Claims and cooperate with the DTX.trade Parties in defending such Claims. You further agree that the DTX.trade Parties shall have control of the defense or settlement of any third-party Claims. THIS INDEMNITY IS IN ADDITION TO, AND NOT IN LIEU OF, ANY OTHER INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND DTX.TRADE.
19. RELEASE
You hereby release and forever discharge DTX.trade and the DTX.trade Parties from, and hereby waive and relinquish, each and every past, present and future dispute, claim, controversy, demand, right, obligation, liability, action and cause of action of every kind and nature (including personal injuries, death, and property damage), that has arisen or arises directly or indirectly out of, or that relates directly or indirectly to, the Services (including any interactions with, or act or omission of, other users). IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, OR ANY SIMILAR LAW OR RULE IN YOUR JURISDICTION, WHICH STATES IN SUBSTANCE: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”
20. MISCELLANEOUS
These Terms of Use and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services, or with respect to the Services, constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms of Use operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. You may not assign these Terms of Use, or any of your rights or obligations hereunder, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be unlawful, void, and unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision will be construed in a manner to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the Parties, and the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Terms of Use or use of the Services. You agree that these Terms of Use will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them. The communications between you and DTX.trade may take place via electronic means, whether you visit the Services or send DTX.trade e-mails, or whether DTX.trade posts notices on the Services or communicates with you via e-mail. For contractual purposes, you (a) consent to receive communications from DTX.trade in an electronic form; and (b) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that DTX.trade provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were to be in writing. The foregoing does not affect your statutory rights, which may include without limitation the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act at 15 U.S.C. §7001 et seq.
