You also represent that you have the legal authority to accept this Agreement on behalf of yourself and any party you represent in connection with your use of the Platform.

We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, without liability to you or any third-party, refuse to let you use of the Platform. Such actions may be taken as a result of a number of factors, including without limitation legal or regulatory requirements or demand, our discretion, or your violation of the terms of this Agreement.

THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER THAT IMPACT YOUR RIGHTS ABOUT HOW TO RESOLVE DISPUTES. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

1. General Information

KoD may offer and / or distribute certain digital assets built on blockchain or distributed ledger technology, including, but not limited to, fungible digital tokens or cryptocurrency, and / or non-fungible tokens or digital assets that are designed to certify such digital asset to be unique and therefore not interchangeable with other digital assets (collectively, “Digital Assets”). “Digital Assets” include the collections created by KoD commonly known as the “Knights,” the “Steeds” and the “Goblets.”

The Platform may enable you to engage in several activities, which are described more fully on the Site. You are solely responsible for the management, protection, and security of the mechanism whereby you store, and / or transfer to or from, your Digital Assets, including, but not limited to, any software applications hosted by third parties (collectively, a “Wallet”) and validating all transactions involving your Digital Assets interacting with certain software that provides a means for transacting in and / or transferring Digital Assets (“Smart Contracts”) generated by the Platform or any third party before confirming any transfer of Digital Assets. There is no way that any transaction with an Ethereum Smart Contract can be undone or reversed. Accordingly, transactions made through the Platform cannot be reversed.

2. Ownership of Digital Assets

Subject to certain limitations set forth herein and your continued compliance with these Terms, you own the Digital Assets you acquire or purchase on the Platform, including, but not limited to, the underlying artwork included therein. Ownership of Digital Assets are mediated entirely by Ethereum Smart Contracts and the Ethereum network. KoD will never seize, freeze, or otherwise modify the ownership of any Digital Asset unless it has not been lawfully and legitimately acquired or purchased. Except as required by a facially valid court order, instructed by you, or except as provided herein, KoD will not sell, transfer, loan, hypothecate, or otherwise alienate your Digital Assets.

Title to your Digital Assets will at all times remain with you and will not transfer to KoD. None of your Digital Assets are the property of, or will or may be loaned to, KoD without your written consent. As the owner of your Digital Assets, you will bear all risk of loss of Digital Assets. KoD does not represent or treat your Digital Assets as belonging to KoD. KoD will have no liability for fluctuations in the value of Digital Assets created, minted, purchased, acquired, or made available on the Platform.

Subject to your continued compliance with these Terms KoD grants you a worldwide, royalty-free license to use, copy, and display Digital Assets purchased from KoD, along with any extensions that you choose to create or use, for the following purposes: (i) for your own personal, non-commercial use; (ii) as part of a marketplace that permits the purchase and sale of your Digital Asset, provided that the marketplace cryptographically verifies each Digital Asset owner’s rights to display the underlying artwork for their Digital Asset to ensure that only the actual owner thereof can display such Digital Asset; or (iii) as part of a third party website or application that permits the inclusion, involvement, or participation of your Digital Asset, provided that such website/application cryptographically verifies each Digital Asset owner’s rights to the underlying artwork for such Digital Asset to ensure that only the actual owner of such Digital Asset can display the Digital Asset, and provided that such Digital Asset is no longer visible once the owner thereof leaves such website/application.

Subject to your continued compliance with these Terms, KoD grants you an unlimited, worldwide license to use, copy, and display any Digital Assets purchased from KoD for the purpose of creating derivative works based upon the underlying art thereof (“Commercial Use”). Examples of such Commercial Use would be the use of the underling art to produce and sell merchandise products (e.g., T-Shirts, etc.), displaying copies of the underlying art, etc. For the sake of clarity, nothing herein will be deemed to restrict you from (a) owning or operating a marketplace that permits the use and sale of Digital Assets purchased from KoD, provided that the marketplace cryptographically verifies each Digital Asset owner’s rights to the underlying artwork for such Digital Asset to ensure that only the actual owner of such Digital Asset can display the Digital Asset; (b) owning or operating a third party website or application that permits the inclusion, involvement, or participation of Knights generally, provided that such website or application cryptographically verifies each Digital Asset owner’s rights to the underlying artwork for such Digital Asset to ensure that only the actual owner of such Digital Asset can display the Digital Asset and provided that such Digital Asset is no longer visible once the owner of the thereof leaves the website/application; or (c) earning revenue from any of the foregoing.

3. Intellectual Property Rights

Although you own the Digital Assets you acquire through the Platform, the Platform and any content, features, and functionality (including but not limited to all information, software, text, displays, images, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof) created or developed by or for KoD, are owned by KoD, its licensors, or other providers of such material and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws. KoD grants you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, royalty-free and worldwide right and license to access and use the Platform solely in strict compliance with the provisions of these Terms and as permitted by the functionalities of the Platform available to you. KoD’s name and all related names, logos, product and service names, marks, trademarks, graphics, designs, artwork, photos, videos, audio, software, mottos, and slogans (collectively, “KoD IP”) are trademarks of KoD, its associates, affiliates, or licensors. You must not use KoD IP without the prior written permission of KoD. All other names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans on this Platform are the trademarks of their respective owners.

KoD reserves all rights not expressly granted to you in this section. Accordingly, nothing in this Agreement or on the Platform will be construed as granting to you, by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any additional license rights in and to the Platform, or any KoD IP located or displayed on or within the Platform or elsewhere.

4. Wallets

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT (i) KOD HAS NO CONTROL OVER ANY WALLET THAT YOU MAY USE IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM; (ii) ALL WALLETS ARE PROVIDED BY THIRD-PARTIES; (iii) KOD HAS NO RIGHT OR ABILITY TO CONTROL THIRD-PARTIES WHO PROVIDE WALLETS; (iv) ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD-PARTY WALLET PROVIDER IS BETWEEN YOU AND THAT THIRD-PARTY WALLET PROVIDER; AND (v) THAT KOD IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY ISSUES OR LOSSES CAUSED BY USE OF THIRD-PARTY WALLETS.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of the devices that you use to access the Platform. You are also responsible for maintaining the security of your Wallet(s), and for ensuring that no unauthorized person has access to your Wallet(s), any private keys, or any devices that you utilize in connection with the Platform.

It is your sole responsibility to provide accurate information to us. You are solely responsible for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of all information and materials that you provide to use in connection with your use of the Platform.

6. Transferring Digital Assets

You should confirm all transactions before you make any transfers of Digital Assets to any third-party Wallet. KoD will bear no liability or responsibility if you enter an incorrect alphanumeric identifier that represents a potential destination for the transfer of a Digital Asset (a.k.a., Wallet address), incorrect tag/memo, or send your Digital Assets to an incompatible or incorrect Wallet. We do not guarantee the identity or value received by a recipient of an outbound transfer of Digital Assets from the Platform to third-party Wallets.

7. Fees and Payment

We will have no insight into or control over payments or transactions, nor do we have the ability to reverse any transactions. KoD will have no liability to you or to any third party for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any transactions that you engage in or any other transactions that you conduct via the Ethereum blockchain. Purchases are not refundable under any circumstances.

Ethereum requires the payment of a transaction fee (a “Gas Fee”) for every transaction that occurs on the Ethereum network. The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run the decentralized Ethereum blockchain. This means that you will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction.
