You are responsible for ensuring your use complies with all laws and regulations applicable to you, including U.S. and California law, and any local laws in your jurisdiction.

III. Use of the Service

You agree not to misuse the Service, attempt unauthorized access, exploit or interfere with the Service or any smart contract, circumvent security, introduce malware, scrape or harvest data without consent, or use the Service for unlawful, fraudulent, or infringing purposes.

IV. Digital Asset and Market Disclaimer

The Service may reference digital assets, including VWFEST. We do not offer brokerage, exchange, investment advisory, or fiduciary services, and we do not execute or custody transactions. Values of digital assets are volatile and unpredictable. You may lose some or all funds, and there is no guarantee of liquidity, price, or ability to sell.

No offer or solicitation. Content on the Service is not an offer, solicitation, or recommendation to buy or sell any security, commodity, or financial instrument, nor to engage in any investment strategy. We make no representation about the regulatory classification of any token.

V. Wallets, Smart Contracts, and Fees

Blockchain transactions are irreversible and may be visible on public ledgers. You are solely responsible for securing your wallet, private keys, and seed phrases. Interactions with smart contracts carry risks, including bugs, exploits, and network congestion. We do not control blockchain networks, validators, or third‑party protocols, and we are not responsible for failed, delayed, or lost transactions. You are responsible for all network fees and applicable taxes.

VI. No Fiduciary Duty; No Partnership

Nothing in the Service or any community interaction creates a fiduciary, advisory, partnership, or agency relationship between you and us. You acknowledge that you are not relying on us as a fiduciary or adviser.

VII. Third‑Party Services and Links

Links to third‑party sites, wallets, marketplaces, or protocols are provided for convenience. We do not control and are not responsible for third‑party content, services, terms, or privacy practices. Your use of third‑party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms.

VIII. Intellectual Property

All content we publish, including logos, graphics, text, and site design, is owned by us or our licensors and protected by applicable laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works without prior written permission, except as permitted by law.

IX. User Conduct and Content

If you submit content, you represent that you own or have rights to it and that it does not infringe, violate law, or contain malware. You grant us a non‑exclusive, worldwide, royalty‑free license to host, display, and share such content solely to operate and promote the Service.

X. Disclaimers

AS IS. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service and any digital asset information are provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non‑infringement, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade.

XI. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by California law, in no event will we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising from or related to your use of the Service or digital assets, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our aggregate liability for all claims arising out of or related to the Service will not exceed the greater of $100 or the amount you paid to us, if any, in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

California Civil Code § 1542 Waiver. You expressly waive and release any rights under California Civil Code § 1542 (which provides that a general release does not extend to claims that the creditor does not know or suspect to exist), as to disputes covered by these Terms.

XII. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your infringement of any rights of a third party.

XIII. Governing Law; Arbitration; Class‑Action Waiver

These Terms and any dispute between you and us are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict‑of‑laws rules, and by applicable U.S. federal law. Mandatory Arbitration. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration administered by JAMS or the American Arbitration Association under their applicable rules. The seat and venue of arbitration will be in California, and the language will be English. You and we waive any right to a jury trial. Class‑Action Waiver. Disputes must be brought only in your or our individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. Small‑Claims Exception; Injunctive Relief. Either party may bring an individual action in a California small‑claims court or seek temporary injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual‑property or security interests.

XIV. Taxes

You are solely responsible for any taxes associated with your use of digital assets, including reporting and payment obligations under applicable law. We do not provide tax reporting, and we do not provide tax advice.

XV. Termination

We may modify, suspend, or terminate the Service or your access at any time for any reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms. Upon termination, sections that by their nature should survive will survive, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and arbitration.

XVI. Modifications to the Terms

We may update these Terms at any time by posting the revised version with a new effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
