Risks. Use of the Site and participation in Transactions may carry financial risk.

Assets are, by their nature, highly experimental, risky, volatile and Transactions are generally irreversible. All Transactions are final and there are no refunds. You acknowledge and agree that you will access and use the Site and participate in Transactions at your own risk. The risk of loss in trading Assets can be substantial. You should, therefore, carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources. Understanding Assets and Transactions may require advanced technical knowledge. Assets are often described in exceedingly technical language that requires a comprehensive understanding of applied cryptography and computer science in order to appreciate the inherent risks of trading Assets. Any reference to a type of Assets on the Site does not indicate our approval or disapproval of the underlying technology regarding such type of Assets, and should not be used as a substitute for your own understanding of the risks specific to each type of Assets. We make no warranty as to the suitability of the Assets referenced on the Site and assume no fiduciary duty in our relations with you. You accept the risk of trading Assets. Emoon does not advise on trading risk. In entering into any Transaction, you represent that you have been, are and will be solely responsible for making your own independent appraisal and investigations into the risks of the Transaction and the underlying 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 or any underlying Token. You accept all consequences of participating in Transactions, including the risk that you may lose access to your 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 Transactions. Under no circumstances will the operation of all or any portion of the Site be deemed to create a relationship that includes the provision or tendering of investment advice. You are responsible for complying with applicable law. You agree that we are not responsible for determining whether or which laws may apply to your Transactions, including tax laws. You are solely responsible for reporting and paying any taxes arising from your use of the Site and participation in any Transaction. You are aware of and accept the risk of operational challenges. The Site may experience sophisticated cyber attacks, unexpected surges in activity or other operational or technical difficulties that may cause interruptions to or delays on the Site. You agree to accept the risk of a Transaction failure resulting from unanticipated or heightened technical difficulties, including those resulting from sophisticated attacks, and you agree not to hold us accountable for any related losses. We will not bear any liability, whatsoever, for any damage or interruptions caused by any Viruses that may affect your computer or other equipment, or any phishing, spoofing or other attack. We advise the regular use of a reputable and readily available Virus screening and prevention software. By accessing and using the App, you represent that you understand the inherent risks associated with using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems, and that you have a working knowledge of the usage and intricacies of digital tokens such as bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), and other digital tokens such as those following the Ethereum Token Standard (ERC-20). You further understand that the markets for these digital tokens are highly volatile, and that there are risks associated with digital tokens including (but not limited to) those related to adoption, speculation, technology, security, and regulation. You acknowledge that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems such as Ethereum are variable and may increase dramatically at any time. You understand and agree to assume full responsibility for all of the risks of accessing and using the Siteand interacting with the Ethereum Blockchain, and agree that Emoon is not responsible for any loss you may experience as a result of these risks. Emoon must comply with applicable law. We comply with all legal requests for information, and reserve the right to provide information, including Transaction Information, to law enforcement personnel and other third parties to answer inquiries, to respond to legal process, to respond to the order of a court of competent jurisdiction and those exercising the court’s authority and to protect the Company and our users. Operation of Underlying Protocols. We do not own or control the underlying software protocols that govern the operation of Assets referenced on the Site. In general, the underlying protocols are open source and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. By accessing or using the Site, you acknowledge and agree (i) that we are not responsible for operation of the underlying protocols and that we make no guarantee of their functionality, security, or availability; and (ii) that the underlying protocols are subject to sudden changes in operating rules (a/k/a “forks”), and that such forks may materially affect the value, function, and/or even the name of the Token referenced on the Site. In the event of a fork, you agree that we may temporarily suspend our operations (with or without advance notice to you) and that we may, in our sole discretion, decide whether or not to support (or cease supporting) either branch of the forked protocol entirely.
