FUNRISE TERMS OF SERVICE

 

DATE OF INITIAL PUBLICATION: 29th October 2021 

LAST UPDATED AT: 29th October 2021

 

Welcome to FUNRISE Platform (hereby also referred to as «FUNRISE»), operated by «Entropy Media B.V.», a company incorporated and operating in Netherlands (hereby also referred to as «Company», «Copyright Holder», «we», «us», and «our»). 

FUNRISE platform is available online at the website https://funrise.io (hereby also referred to as «Website») and/or via mobile applications which can be downloaded at various digital stores.

 

INTRODUCTION

FUNRISE is a digital platform that allows the Users to create, deploy, exploit, trade, sell, purchase, transfer and commit other transactions (hereinafter collectively referred to as «Transactions») with regard to various digital assets, including crypto assets, such assets hereinafter collectively being referred to as «the Crypto Assets», using NFT technology (as described below), as well as to create and administer crypto wallets, and synchronize Users’ accounts with social media platforms. 

NFT for the purposes of these Terms of Service refers to unique non-fungible token enforced by means of the Polygon cryptocurrency (supported by blockchain technology). NFT technology ensures the security of a particular Crypto Asset and the rights of its creator and copyright holder. NFT serves as a certificate of authenticity of the Crypto Asset. It guarantees its uniqueness and carries information about the copyright holder of the Crypto Asset and the time of its creation.

The following Terms of Service (hereinafter referred to as «the Terms») govern your access to and use of FUNRISE; our online and/or mobile services, and software provided on or in connection with those services (collectively, the «Service»). 

FUNRISE is a platform, a digital marketplace. We are not a broker, a financial institution, a vendor, or a tax agent. The Service constitutes administrative services only. The Company facilitates transactions between the Buyers and the Sellers of the Crypto Assets but is not a party to any agreement between the Buyers and the Sellers of the Crypto Assets or, in general, between any Users.

The User bears full responsibility for verifying the identity, legitimacy, and authenticity of the content and the Crypto Assets that the User creates/deploys/sells at FUNRISE. Notwithstanding indicators and messages that suggest verification, the Company makes no claims about the legitimacy, authenticity or quality of the Crypto Assets.

Users must at all times respect copyright, property, and other legal rights of third parties and not engage in infringing them.

By clicking on the “I accept” button, or completing the FUNRISE account registration process, or using our Service and/or purchasing Crypto Assets, you agree to be legally bound by these Terms and all of the Terms incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service or sell/purchase the Crypto Assets.

By continuing to access or use the Service, you confirm your acceptance of the revised Terms and all of the terms incorporated therein by reference. We encourage you to review the Terms from time to time 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.

The Terms may be changed by the Company unilaterally at any time without notifying the User. The new version of the Terms comes into force from the moment of posting on the FUNRISE Website and/or mobile application.  

PRIVACY POLICY

Please refer to our Privacy Policy  for information about how we collect, use and share personal information about you.

 

ACCOUNT. REGISTRATION. TRANSACTIONS. USER CONTENT.

Account. Registration 

If you wish to use the Service that is offered by FUNRISE, you will need to create and register an account on the Service (“Account”). 

We require all Users to be 18 years old or older. If you are under 18, you may use a parent or guardian's FUNRISE account, but only with involvement of the Account holder. However, the Account holder is responsible for everything done with that Account.

By creating an Account, you agree to (a) provide accurate, current and complete Account information about yourself, (b) maintain and promptly update from time to time as necessary your Account information, (c) maintain the security of your password and accept all risks of unauthorized access to your Account and the information you provide to us, and (d) immediately notify us if you discover or otherwise suspect any security breaches related to the Service, or your Account. 

Registration is carried out by the User by filling in the required fields of the Registration application and pressing a button with the appropriate functionality on the Registration page and / or putting «checkmarks» in special fields on the Registration page.

Confirmation of Registration is carried out by the User through entering a special access code that is automatically generated and sent to User’s phone number and / or email address indicated when filling out the Registration application, and / or by clicking on a special link sent to the User by email. 

Access to the Account is provided to the User upon inputting a special access code that is automatically generated by FUNRISE and sent to User’s phone number, hereinafter also referred to as “Access code” or “Access codes” (other activities of the User at FUNRISE are also subject to confirmation using Access codes). Also, the access may be provided through entering the Login and Password created and registered in our system during Registration. 

All actions performed through the User's Account at FUNRISE Platform are considered to have been performed on his behalf, except for cases when the User has duly notified the Company of unauthorized access to FUNRISE User’s Account and / or any violation and / or suspicion on violation of the confidentiality of the Account.

The Company reserves the right to temporarily/permanently block multiple Accounts of the same User as well as to temporarily/permanently block the Accounts which show signs of malicious/fraudulent/illegal activities. 

The Company may require you to provide additional information and documents at the request of any competent authority or in case of application of any law or regulation, including laws related to anti-laundering (legalization) of incomes obtained by criminal means, or for counteracting financing of terrorism.

The Company may also require you to provide additional information and documents in cases where it has reasons to believe that: 

  • your Account is being used for money laundering or for any other illegal activity; 
  • you have concealed or reported false identification information and other details; 
  • or transactions committed via your Account were executed in breach of these Terms or applicable laws.

In such cases, the Company, at its sole discretion, may pause or cancel your activities at FUNRISE until such additional information and documents are reviewed by us and accepted as satisfying the requirements of applicable law. If you do not provide complete and accurate information and documents in response to such a request, the Company may refuse to provide the Service to you.

By submitting your personal data through our Website or Service, you agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal data in accordance with the Privacy Policy.

You must at your own expense provide all equipment and software necessary to connect to the Service, including but not limited to, a mobile device that is suitable to connect with and use the Service, in cases where the Service offers a mobile component. You are solely responsible for any fees, including Internet connection or mobile fees, that you incur when accessing the Service.

Transactions

In order to execute any transactions with the Crypto Assets at FUNRISE, you will be required to create a crypto wallet at FUNRISE Platform, which will allow you to purchase, store, and engage in Transactions using cryptocurrencies. The crypto wallet will be created for you by FUNRISE. 

Upon creating and registering an Account, you may need to top up the balance of your crypto wallet using your bank card via various external payment platforms. 

FUNRISE Platform may also have an option of using various supported crypto wallet extensions through our website. Should you choose to use a third-party digital wallet extension, you will be asked to unlock your crypto wallet with that extension. Once you submit an order to sell or purchase a unique Crypto Asset, your order is going to be passed on to the applicable extension, which will then complete the Transaction on your behalf.

All transactions in blockchain are executed with cryptocurrency. FUNRISE uses Polygon USDC cryptocurrency. We suggest you check current Polygon USDC exchange rates and keep your information up to date. 

How it works for the Creator/Seller. 

In order to list Crypto Assets for sale, they first need to be converted using NFT technology, which will create a certificate of authenticity (NFT) for your Crypto Asset. 

Upon creating and registering an Account, you may sync your social media accounts with your Account at FUNRISE, thus allowing you to upload your Content (photos, videos, art, etc.) directly from your electronic devices and convert them into Crypto Assets without having to copy, transfer, convert or edit them. 

It is important to remember that you must respect copyright. You can create and sell NFTs explicitly from content that is created or legally owned by yourself. 

In your personal Account you can access the Collection section which contains all of your Crypto Assets in NFT format. 

Because creating an NFT requires payment of the commissions and distribution of the resources, NFT is created in the exact moment of sell/purchase and not until that moment. 

How it works for the Buyer

The amount required to purchase a specific NFT will be suggested automatically, but you can always change it (The window with the deposit form will be filled in by default for the amount required to buy a specific NFT, but the amount can be changed by the User up or down.) 

If your crypto wallet is being topped up with a payment card which uses currency different from US Dollars ($), then the bank that issued the card will automatically make a conversion at its internal exchange rate. 

After making a purchase, it will take an average of 24 hours to complete the Transaction on the blockchain and deliver the NFT to your Collection. Status of the purchase will be displayed in the “Collection” section.

Purchasing NFT means you have purchased the rights for a particular Crypto Asset. 

Hereby you acknowledge that the exact scope of rights (that is, copyright ownership/license, terms of license, if applicable) acquired by the purchaser of a particular Crypto Asset is determined by the laws of the Seller’s country of residence. 

No refunds or returns are permitted due to the fact that it is technically impossible to perform them in a blockchain environment.

RISKS, DISCLAIMERS, INDEMNIFICATION, LIABILITY.

    1. Risks 

Hereby the User accepts and acknowledges the following risks connected with using the Service. 

  1. 1.Technological. 
  • The technology utilized in the Service depends on public peer-to-peer networks that are not under the control or influence of the Company and are subject to many risks and uncertainties. Users are solely responsible for the safekeeping of the private key associated with the blockchain address used to participate in the Transactions. The Company will not be able to restore or issue any refund in respect of any Crypto Assets due to lost private keys. If a User is not able to use a Crypto Asset due to loss or theft of the corresponding private key or otherwise, such User will be unable to exercise his rights with respect to such Crypto Asset.
  • The Company utilizes cryptographic technologies and blockchain technologies, including tokens, cryptocurrencies, stable coins, “smart contracts,” consensus algorithms, voting systems and distributed, decentralized or peer-to-peer networks or systems in performing the Service. Each User acknowledges and agrees that such technologies are novel and speculative, and that therefore there is significant uncertainty regarding the operation and effects and risks thereof and the application of existing law thereto.
  • There are risks associated with using an Internet based currency, 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 crypto wallet. You accept and acknowledge that the Company will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using the Crypto Assets, however caused.
  • Crypto Assets relevant to the FUNRISE Platform depend on the smart contracts deployed to Polygon. Once deployed to Polygon, the code of smart contracts cannot be modified. In the event that the smart contracts are adversely affected by malfunctions, bugs, defects, malfunctions, hacking, theft, attacks, negligent coding or design choices, or changes to the protocol rules of Polygon, Users may be exposed to a risk of total loss and forfeiture of all Crypto Assets. The Company assumes no liability or responsibility for any of the foregoing matters, except as otherwise expressly provided by the Terms or required by applicable law.
  • Our Service does not actually store, send, or receive Crypto Assets. This is because Crypto Assets exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained on its supporting blockchain. Any Transaction with regard to Crypto Assets occurs within the supporting blockchain and not on the Service itself.
  • Fork Handling. Cryptocurrencies, blockchain, the NFTs, and the Crypto Assets may be subject to “forks.” Forks occur when some or all persons running the software clients for a particular blockchain system adopt a new client or a new version of an existing client that: (i) changes the protocol rules in backwards-compatible or backwards-incompatible manner that affects which transactions can be added into later blocks, how later blocks are added to the blockchain, or other matters relating to the future operation of the protocol; or (ii) reorganizes or changes past blocks to alter the history of the blockchain. Some forks are “contentious” and thus may result in two or more persistent alternative versions of the protocol or blockchain, either of which may be viewed as or claimed to be the legitimate or genuine continuation of the original. The Company may not be able to anticipate, control or influence the occurrence or outcome of forks, and does not assume any risk, liability or obligation in connection therewith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company does not assume any responsibility to notify a User of pending, threatened or completed forks. The Company will respond to any forks as the Company determines in its sole and absolute discretion, and the Company shall not have any duty or obligation or liability to a User if such response (or lack of such response) acts to a User detriment. The Company reserves the right to only allow one NFT to be associated with the relevant metadata forming the Crypto Asset, notwithstanding that copies of such NFT may exist on both chains following a fork. A User assume full responsibility to independently remain apprised of and informed about possible forks, and to manage User’s own interests in connection therewith.

1.2. Financial

  • The value of the cryptocurrencies and the prices of Crypto Assets are extremely volatile. As relatively new products and technologies, blockchain-based assets are not widely accepted as a means of payment for goods and services. A significant portion of demand for these assets is generated by speculators and investors seeking to profit from the short- or long-term holding of blockchain assets. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the Crypto Assets, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. We cannot guarantee that any purchasers of Crypto Assets will not lose money. The market value of any NFT, or other Crypto Asset may decline below the price for which the User acquires such Asset through FUNRISE Platform or any other platform. A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems could negatively impact the development of those ecosystems and related applications, and could therefore also negatively impact the potential utility or value of Crypto Assets.

1.3. Regulatory and legal 

  • The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and tokens is uncertain, and new regulations, policies, legal inquiries, actions, suits, investigations, claims, fines or judgments may materially adversely affect the development of the Service and the utilization of the Crypto Assets, thus impeding or limiting User’s ability to continue using the Service or the Crypto Assets.   
  • There are risks associated with purchasing User generated content, including but not limited to, the risk of purchasing counterfeit Crypto Assets, mislabeled Crypto Assets, Crypto Assets that are vulnerable to metadata decay, Crypto Assets on smart contracts with bugs, and Crypto Assets that may become untransferable. The Company reserves the right to hide collections, contracts, and Assets affected by any of these issues or by other issues. Crypto Assets you purchase may become inaccessible on FUNRISE. Under no circumstances shall the inability to view your Crypto Assets on FUNRISE serve as grounds for a claim against the Company.
  • The Service may rely on third-party platforms such as third-parties’ crypto wallets and payment systems to perform the Transactions with the Crypto Assets. If we are unable to maintain a good relationship with such platform providers; if the terms and conditions or pricing of such platform providers change; if we violate or cannot comply with the terms and conditions of such platforms; or if any of such platforms loses market share or falls out of favor or is unavailable for a prolonged period of time, access to and use of the Service will suffer.

Disclaimers

FUNRISE is not responsible for determining the withholding, sales, use, value added, transfer or other taxes, together with any interest and penalties imposed with respect thereto (“Taxes”), that apply to your Transactions. You agree that you are solely responsible for determining what, if any, Taxes apply to your Transactions and to withhold, collect, report and remit the correct amounts of Taxes to the appropriate taxing authorities. Unless otherwise indicated on an applicable invoice, any amounts due in respect of a Transaction are exclusive of sale, use, value added or similar Taxes (“Sales Taxes”) which shall be your responsibility. Any payments with respect to your Transactions shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax (a “Withholding Tax”) from any such payment then the sum payable by you shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made the amount received is equal to the sum that would have been received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
