  • Only use the Services and the Site for lawful purposes and in adherence with these Terms;

  • Ensure that all information that you provide on the Site is current, complete, and accurate; and

  • Use the Site for any purpose or conduct that is directly or indirectly unlawful;

  • Export, reexport, or transfer, directly or indirectly, any technology belonging to us or the Francium protocol in violation of applicable export laws or regulations;

  • Infringe on or misappropriate any contract, intellectual property, or other third-party right, or commit a tort while using the Site;

  • Attempt to circumvent or disable any content filtering techniques or security measures that Francium employs on the Site, or attempt to access any service or area of the Site that you are not authorized to access;

  • Introduce or use any malware, virus, Trojan horse, worm, logic bomb, drop-dead device, backdoor, shutdown mechanism, or other harmful material into the Site;

  • Post content or communications on the Site that are, in our sole discretion, libelous, defamatory, profane, obscene, pornographic, sexually explicit, indecent, lewd, vulgar, suggestive, harassing, hateful, threatening, offensive, discriminatory, bigoted, abusive, inflammatory, fraudulent, deceptive or otherwise objectionable;

  • To the extent applicable, post content on the Site containing unsolicited promotions, commercial messages, or any chain messages or user content designed to deceive, induce, or trick the user of the Site; or

  • Encourage or induce any third party to engage in any of the activities prohibited under these Terms.

You acknowledge that the Site and your use of the Site present certain risks, including without limitation the following risks:

  • Losses while digital assets are being supplied to the Francium protocol and losses due to the fluctuation of prices of tokens in a trading pair or liquidity pool. Prices of digital currencies, tokens and/or other digital assets fluctuate day by day or even minute by minute. The value of your available balance could surge or drop suddenly. Please note that there is a possibility that the price of tokens could decrease to zero. Prices of tokens are prone to significant fluctuations, for example, due to announced proposed legislative acts, governmental restrictions, news related to cyber crimes, or other factors causing potentially excessive market enthusiasm, disproportionate loss in confidence, or manipulation by others in the market.

  • Risks associated with accessing the Francium protocol through third party UIs. You are responsible for doing your own diligence on those UIs to understand and accept the risks that use entails. You are also responsible for doing your own diligence on those interfaces to understand and accept any fees that those interfaces may charge.

  • Risks associated with any Smart Contracts with which you interact.

  • Although we do not have access to your assets, you are reminded and acknowledge that at any time, your access to your Digital Assets through third-party Digital Asset wallet services, unrelated to the Site, may be suspended or terminated or there may be a delay in your access or use of your Digital Assets, which may result in the Digital Assets diminishing in value or you being unable to complete a Smart Contract.

  • You are reminded of the inherent risks with digital assets and decentralized finance including the fact that tokens are not legal tender and are not backed by any government. Unlike fiat currencies, which are regulated and backed by local governments and central banks, tokens are based only on technology and user consensus, which means that in cases of manipulations or market panic, central governments will not take any corrective actions or measures to achieve stability, maintain liquidity or protect their value. There is a possibility that certain transactions cannot be settled or may be difficult to settle, or can be completed only at significantly adverse prices depending on the market situation and/or market volume. Transactions may be irreversible, and, accordingly, potential losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions are not recoverable. Some blockchain transactions are deemed to be completed when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time when you or another party initiated the transaction.

  • The regulatory frameworks applicable to blockchain transactions in connection with tokens are still developing and evolving. It is possible that your transactions or funds are, or may be in the future, subject to various reporting, tax or other liabilities and obligations. Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the country or international level may materially and adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of your tokens. Certain jurisdictions may treat groups of users as a general partnership or some other type of unincorporated association, which may result in a theory of collective liability that could heighten your risks of liability for events or occurrences outside your control.

  • The Site and/or Francium protocol may be wholly or partially suspended or terminated for any or no reason, which may limit your access to your Digital Assets.

  • You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with any and all Applicable Laws in connection with your acceptance of these Terms and your use of any part of the Site, including but not limited to those related to taxes as well as reporting and disclosure obligations.

  • This list of risk factors is non-exhaustive, and other risks, arising either now or in the future, could additionally be relevant and applicable to you in making an informed judgment to accept, or continue to accept, these Terms and/or use, or continue to use the Site.

Accordingly, you expressly acknowledge and agree that:

a. You assume all risk in connection with the specific risks identified above;

b. You assume all risk in connection with your access to and use of the Site, the Francium protocol, and the Smart Contracts;

c. You expressly waive and release us, the Francium protocol from any and all liability, claims, causes of action, responsibility, or damages arising from or in any way related to your use of the Site, the Francium protocol or the Smart Contracts.
