- 1.Introduction
Welcome to Elacity, a decentralized marketplace for non-fungible tokens (NFTs), owned and operated by Elacity, LLC., d/b/a Elacity, a corporation organized under the laws of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines ("Elacity," "we," "us", or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") oversee your access to and use of Elacity's website(s), mobile applications ("Apps"), our Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and all software, tools, features, functionalities, and services provided by us, including without limitation, the exploration, creation, buying, selling, or transferring of NFTs using our platform (collectively, the "Service").
Throughout these Terms, "you", "user", or "your" refers to you as a user of the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an entity such as a company, then "you" refers to both you and the entity, and by using the Service, you affirm that you are authorized to represent the entity, have the authority to bind the entity to these Terms, and agree to these Terms on behalf of the entity.
PLEASE PERUSE THESE TERMS OF SERVICE METICULOUSLY AS THEY CONTAIN VITAL INFORMATION THAT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS. AS SPECIFIED IN THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION SECTION BELOW, THESE TERMS COMPRISE A BINDING ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS, REQUIRES YOU TO SUBMIT ANY DISPUTES YOU HAVE WITH US TO BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN PROCEEDING IN COURT.
BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS AND/OR USING OUR SERVICE, YOU CONSENT TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND ALL TERMS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE.
Elacity is neither a wallet provider, exchange, broker, financial institution, money services business, nor a creditor. Elacity offers a peer-to-peer decentralized marketplace service, helping users discover NFTs available on public blockchains, and connect directly with other users. We do not possess custody or control over the NFTs or blockchains you interact with, and we do not initiate or carry out purchases, transfers, or sales of NFTs. To use our Service, you must use a third-party wallet that facilitates transactions on blockchains.
Elacity is not a party to any transaction or agreement between users. You solely bear the responsibility for verifying the identity, authenticity, and legitimacy of NFTs that you purchase using the Service. We make no representations or warranties about the identity, legitimacy, or authenticity of users or NFTs, or any associated content that is visible on the Service.
We occasionally provide additional terms for specific services. These additional terms, available with the relevant service, become part of your agreement with us if you use those services. They form part of the "Service" as referenced in these Terms and are subject to these Terms. In case of a conflict between these Terms and any additional terms provided for a specific service, the additional terms will take precedence for that service.
Elacity reserves the right to change or modify these Terms at any time, at its sole discretion. If we make material changes to these Terms, we will endeavor to notify you by providing notice through the Service or updating the "Last Updated" date at the beginning of these Terms. By continuing to access or use the Service after the changes have taken effect, you confirm your acceptance of the revised Terms. It remains your responsibility to review these Terms periodically for any changes and to ensure you understand the terms and conditions that apply when you access or use the Service.
Your use of the Service following the posting of any changes constitutes your full acceptance of such changes. We encourage you to review the Terms frequently to ensure that you understand the terms and conditions that apply when you access or use the Service. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you may not access or use the Service.
- 2.Access to the Service
In the world of web3, your blockchain address essentially functions as your unique identifier on Elacity. As such, you will require a blockchain address along with a third-party wallet to access and use the Service. Your Elacity account ("Account") will be linked to your blockchain address, offering an option to customize your account with additional features such as a profile picture, enhancing your Elacity persona.
Your Elacity Account will display your linked blockchain address and showcase the NFTs associated with that specific address, as well as any related content. It is essential to note that in utilizing your wallet in connection with the Service, you are bound by the terms and conditions set forth by the relevant wallet provider. Wallets are separate entities, not operated, maintained, or affiliated with Elacity, and we do not exercise control or custody over the contents of your wallet, nor can we retrieve or transfer its contents. Elacity disclaims any responsibility or liability in relation to your use of a wallet and does not assure or warrant the compatibility of any specific wallet with the Service. The onus of maintaining your wallet's security lies entirely on you, and it is imperative that you refrain from sharing your wallet credentials or seed phrase with anyone. In case of issues related to your wallet, you should immediately contact your wallet provider. Similarly, you alone are responsible for your Account and any linked wallet, and Elacity will not be liable for any actions or omissions related to your Account or wallet being compromised. In the event of discovering or suspecting any security issues related to the Service or your Account, it is your duty to promptly notify us.
Furthermore, you warrant that you will abide by all applicable laws (including, but not limited to, local, state, federal, and international laws) while using the Service. This includes ensuring that: (a) you are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or organized under the laws of any jurisdiction subject to a comprehensive U.S. Government embargo ("Embargoed Jurisdiction"); (b) you are not subject to any sanctions administered by an agency of the U.S. Government, any other government, or the United Nations (collectively, “Sanctions”); (c) you are not owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by any person that is subject to Sanctions, or that is located in, ordinarily resident in, or organized under the laws of, any Embargoed Jurisdiction; (d) none of your officers, managers, directors, shareholders or authorized representatives is subject to Sanctions, or is located in, ordinarily resident in, or organized under the laws of, any Embargoed Jurisdiction, or is owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by any person that is subject to Sanctions or that is located in, ordinarily resident in, or organized under the laws of, any Embargoed Jurisdiction. You are bound by these conditions for the entire duration of this agreement. If you access or use the Service from outside of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, it is your responsibility to ensure that such use does not violate any applicable laws of your location.
In certain instances, Elacity may require you to provide additional information or documents, such as at the request of a government authority, as dictated by applicable laws or regulations, or to investigate a potential violation of these Terms. Elacity, at its sole discretion, may suspend your Account and restrict your access to the Service until such additional information and documents have been reviewed and verified by Elacity. If the information provided by you in response to such a request is incomplete or inaccurate, Elacity reserves the right to refuse to restore your access to the Service.
Please be aware that your access to and use of the Service might occasionally be interrupted due to a variety of factors. These factors could include, but are not limited to, equipment malfunctions, scheduled updates, maintenance or repairs to the Service, or other actions that Elacity may deem necessary at its sole discretion. In the event that your Account remains inactive for a duration exceeding six months, as solely determined by Elacity, you acknowledge and consent to the possibility of Elacity disabling your Account or reassigning your username or associated URL.
Elacity stipulates that all users must be at least 18 years of age. If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, you may only access and use Elacity under the supervision and with the consent of a parent or guardian who owns an Account. This parent or guardian assumes full responsibility for your activities on the Account. Please note that the use of our Service is strictly prohibited for individuals under the age of 13.

- 4.License to Access and Use the Service and Its Content
Elacity hereby extends to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, personal license to access and use our Service. Please note that this license is granted on the condition of your compliance with our Terms. If we distribute or make available any software, content, or other materials owned, controlled, or licensed by us as part of your use of the Service, we extend to you a non-commercial, personal, non-assignable, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, and non-exclusive license to access, display, and use such software, content, and materials.

Any license in content linked to or associated with any NFTs is as specified by the relevant seller or creator of the NFT.
5. Third-Party Content and Services
Elacity, functioning as a peer-to-peer web3 service, facilitates your exploration of NFTs created by third parties and your interaction with various blockchains. However, Elacity makes no representations or warranties regarding third-party content accessible through our Service, which includes any content associated with NFTs showcased on the Service. The onus is on you to verify the legitimacy, authenticity, and legality of NFTs that you purchase from third-party sellers. Moreover, we cannot assure that any NFTs displayed on Elacity will continue to be visible and/or purchasable, sellable, or transferrable.
NFTs may be governed by terms stipulated directly between buyers and sellers, pertaining to the usage of the NFT content and associated benefits of a given NFT (“Purchase Terms”). For instance, when you seek more information about any of the NFTs visible on Elacity, you may encounter a third-party link to the creator’s website. Such a website might contain Purchase Terms that dictate the usage of the NFT, which you will be obliged to comply with. Elacity is not a party to any such Purchase Terms, which exist solely between the buyer and seller. The responsibility for communicating, establishing, agreeing to, and enforcing these Purchase Terms rests entirely with the buyer and seller. It is incumbent upon you to review these Purchase Terms.
The Service may contain links or functionality to access or use third-party websites (“Third-Party Websites”) and applications (“Third-Party Applications”), or it may otherwise display, include, or make available content, data, information, services, applications, or materials from third parties (“Third-Party Materials”). When you follow a link to or access and use a Third-Party Website or Third-Party Application, even without receiving a warning that you are leaving our Service, you become subject to the terms and conditions (including privacy policies) of that other website or destination. These Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, and Third-Party Materials are not under the control of Elacity and may be "open" applications with no potential recourse. Elacity bears no responsibility or liability for any Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, or Third-Party Materials. We merely provide links to these Third-Party Websites and Third-Party Applications for your convenience and do not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations regarding these Third-Party Websites or Third-Party Applications, or their products, services, or associated Third-Party Materials. You assume all risks associated with using links in Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, and Third-Party Materials.

- 13.Risk Acknowledgement
You understand and agree to the following:
- 1.The worth of NFTs is subjective, subjected to market volatility and fluctuations in cryptocurrency prices, which can significantly impact NFT prices. You acknowledge your understanding of this volatility and potential risk of financial loss.
- 2.A diminished interest in the development and use of distributed ecosystems may negatively affect those ecosystems and associated applications, which could, in turn, impact the potential utility of NFTs.
- 3.Regulatory frameworks for blockchain technologies, non-fungible tokens, cryptocurrency, and other crypto-oriented items remain uncertain. The introduction of new regulations or policies may significantly hinder the Service's development and the utility of NFTs.
- 4.You are solely accountable for identifying any taxes applicable to your transactions, and for withholding, reporting, and remitting the correct amounts to the relevant tax authorities. Elacity is not liable for identifying, withholding, collecting, reporting, or remitting taxes related to your NFTs.
- 5.Risks are inherent when purchasing items associated with content created by third parties through peer-to-peer transactions. This includes risks such as counterfeit or mislabeled items, items vulnerable to metadata decay, bugs in smart contracts, and items that may become nontransferable. You warrant that you have conducted sufficient research before making decisions regarding the sale, acquisition, transfer, or other interactions with any NFTs or accounts/collections.
- 6.Elacity does not govern the public blockchains you interact with, and cannot control certain smart contracts and protocols crucial to completing transactions on these public blockchains. Blockchain transactions are irreversible, and Elacity cannot undo any blockchain transactions.
- 7.Internet and blockchain-based products carry inherent risks, including but not limited to risks associated with hardware, software, and Internet connections, the risk of malicious software introduction, and unauthorized third-party access to your wallet or Account. You acknowledge that Elacity will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions, or delays you may experience when using the Service or any Blockchain network, regardless of the cause.
- 8.The Service relies on third-party platforms and/or vendors. If we cannot maintain good relationships with such platforms/vendors; if their terms and conditions or pricing change; if we violate or cannot comply with their terms and conditions; or if any of these platforms/vendors lose market share, fall out of favor or become unavailable for a long period, this could affect access to and use of the Service.
- 9.Elacity reserves the right to hide collections, contracts, and items impacted by any issues mentioned above or by other issues. Items you purchase may become inaccessible on Elacity. Under no circumstances shall the inability to view items on Elacity or to use the Service in connection with the purchase, sale, or transfer of items available on any blockchains serve as grounds for a claim against Elacity.
- 10.If you have a dispute with one or more users, YOU HEREBY RELEASE US FROM CLAIMS, DEMANDS, AND DAMAGES OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY PROTECTIONS (WHETHER STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) THAT WOULD OTHERWISE LIMIT THE COVERAGE OF THIS RELEASE TO INCLUDE ONLY THOSE CLAIMS WHICH YOU MAY KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN YOUR FAVOR AT THE TIME OF AGREEING TO THIS RELEASE.
- 14.Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, ELACITY AND ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, PRODUCTS, OR THIRD-PARTY SITES AND PRODUCTS, OR FOR DAMAGES RELATED TO LOSS OF REVENUE, PROFITS, , BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR LOSS OF DATA. This liability applies whether the damages are caused by strict liability, tort (including negligence), breach of contract, or any other cause, even if foreseeable and even if Elacity or its service providers have been advised of the possibility of such damages. It also applies to any other claim, demand, or damages whatsoever resulting from or arising out of or in connection with these terms, or the delivery, use, or performance of the service. Access to, and use of, the service, 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 THE ABOVE, IN NO EVENT SHALL ELACITY'S MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THESE TERMS, THE ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE, CONTENT, NFTS, OR ANY ELACITY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) $100 OR (B) THE AMOUNT RECEIVED BY ELACITY FOR ITS SERVICE DIRECTLY RELATING TO THE ITEMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE CLAIM. THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
Certain jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. Similarly, some jurisdictions limit disclaimers or limitations of liability for personal injury from consumer products, so this limitation may not apply to personal injury claims.
The aforementioned provisions are essential elements of the basis of the bargain between you and Elacity, and Elacity would not be able to provide the service to you without such limitations.

- 17.Dispute Resolution; Arbitration
Dispute Resolution. Please read the following arbitration agreement in this Section (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with Elacity and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. This section does not govern disputes between users or between users and third parties. Elacity does not provide dispute resolution services for such disagreements and the parties must resolve those disputes directly.
Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute, controversy, or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Service, to any products sold or distributed through the Service, or to any aspect of your relationship with Elacity, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, including threshold questions of the arbitrability of such dispute, controversy, or claim except that (1) you or Elacity may assert claims in small claims court, but only if the claims qualify, the claims remain only in such court, and the claims remain on an individual, non-representative, and non-class basis; and (2) you or Elacity may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of proper jurisdiction if the claim relates to intellectual property infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
Dispute resolution process. You and Elacity both agree to engage in good-faith efforts to resolve disputes prior to either party initiating an arbitration, small claims court proceeding, or equitable relief for intellectual property infringement. You must initiate this dispute resolution process by sending a letter describing the nature of your claim and desired resolution to: Elacity LLC, Attn: Legal Department, The Financial Services Centre, Stoney Ground, Kingstown, St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Both parties agree to meet and confer personally, by telephone, or by videoconference (hereinafter “Conference”) to discuss the dispute and attempt in good faith to reach a mutually beneficial outcome that avoids the expenses of arbitration or, where applicable, litigation. If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the Conference as well, but you agree to fully participate in the Conference. Likewise, if Elacity is represented by counsel, its counsel may participate in the Conference as well, but Elacity agrees to have a company representative fully participate in the Conference. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process and Conference required by this paragraph. If the parties do not reach agreement to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after initiation of this dispute resolution process, either party may commence arbitration, file an action in small claims court, or file a claim for injunctive or equitable relief in a court of proper jurisdiction for matters relating to intellectual property infringement, if the claims qualify.
Arbitration Rules and Forum. The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. To begin an arbitration proceeding after participating in the dispute resolution process, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent at Elacity LLC, Attn: Legal Department, The Financial Services Centre, Stoney Ground, Kingstown, St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The arbitration will be conducted by a recognized alternative dispute resolution provider as selected by the parties. Disputes involving claims and counterclaims under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to the most current version of the chosen provider's Arbitration Rules and Minimum Standards in effect; all other claims shall be subject to the provider's most current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and Minimum Standards in effect. If the chosen provider is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay filing, administrative, hearing, and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver, Elacity will pay them for you if you complied with the dispute resolution process set forth above. In addition, Elacity will reimburse all such filing, administrative, hearing, and/or other fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous or you did not comply with the dispute resolution process set forth above, except that if you have initiated the arbitration claim, you will still be required to pay the lesser of $250 or the maximum amount permitted under the Arbitration Rules for claims initiated by you. You are still responsible for all additional costs that you incur in the arbitration, including without limitation, fees for attorneys or expert witnesses. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or videoconference, based on written submissions, or at another mutually agreed upon location that is reasonably convenient to you. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Elacity. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and these Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND ELACITY HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Elacity are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
Waiver of Class Actions and Class Arbitrations. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER, PERSON, OR CUSTOMER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER, PERSON, OR CUSTOMER.
In the event that this subparagraph is deemed invalid or unenforceable neither you or we are entitled to arbitration and instead claims and disputes shall be resolved in a court as set forth in Governing Law and Venue section.

By utilizing the Service, you assert that you are not situated in any such country or listed on any such list. You assume responsibility for, and agree to comply at your own expense, with all applicable U.S. export laws and regulations.
24. Survival of Provisions
Any sections of these Terms which by their nature should persist beyond the termination of these Terms will continue to be enforceable, notwithstanding any termination of these Terms by either you or Elacity. Termination will not limit any of Elacity's other rights or remedies under law or in equity.
- 25.Miscellaneous Provisions
These Terms encapsulate the entire agreement between you and Elacity in regard to your access and usage of the Service. These Terms and the rights and licenses provided herein may not be transferred or assigned by you without prior written consent from Elacity. Elacity's failure to enforce any right or provision under these Terms does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be considered a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The headings of sections herein are purely for reference and do not have any legal effect.

Except where otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of you and Elacity, and are not intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other individual or entity.
