Terms and Conditions of Use
Cornucopias is a distributed gaming application (comprising a centralised gaming engine built on Unreal 5 engine as well as a set of specially-developed smart contracts (each, a "Smart Contract") deployed on the Ethereum network or such other supported blockchain network or Layer 2 scaling solution (each, the "relevant Blockchain Network") allowing players to participate in a MMORPG metaverse gaming ecosystem comprising a network of floating bubbles and domes, each with diverse themes and characteristics where players may engage in a series of mini-games and explore vast landscapes in search of precious resources which can be crafted into valuable items, as well as engage in a variety of Play-and-Earn, Build-and-Earn, Learn-and-Earn and Host-and-Earn activities using the native utility token $COPI. The game allows players to own digital vehicles, land, pets, mounts and other in-game assets, which are issued as unique non-fungible collectible tokens based on the ERC-721 standard or other similar “non-fungible” token standard, tradeable in a peer-to-peer manner, with each non-fungible token irrevocably associated with a unique Uniform Resource Identifier JSON file containing metadata such as the name, description or image file stored on Arweave/IPFS or such other storage network and/or usage terms of the underlying intellectual property ("NFT").

- CORNUCOPIAS ECOSYSTEM GAMES
- The Cornucopias metaverse ecosystem encompasses a network of floating bubbles, zones and domes which house virtual land, including Home Bubble, District Land Plots and Custom Domes. These are gameplay environments which players can inhabit, and which will exist as NFTs on the relevant blockchain network. Some domes have curated content built by the Cornucopias development team such as The Island, Themed Zones and The City to provide an engaging in-game experience and rewards. These NFTs are freely tradeable on various virtual currency exchanges, and may be exchanged and accessed in a peer-to-peer manner by users. NFTs would have no useability outside of the Cornucopias metaverse ecosystem. NFTs do not have any tangible or physical manifestation.
- Play-and-Earn: By playing Cornucopias and its various mini-games, accompanying mobile and browser-based games, the player will earn in-game currency in the form of virtual in-game tokens known as "Gold". The in-game currency can then be exchanged for $COPI which has a real world value. Players will be presented with a list of daily challenges to complete, with varying levels of difficulty. These challenges may include; resource collection, time trials or map exploration. Upon successful completion of the daily challenges, players are entered into the Play-to-Earn reward pot. This is a daily quantity of gold coins which is distributed among all successful participants. $COPI is freely tradeable on various virtual currency exchanges, and may be exchanged and accessed in a peer-to-peer manner by users. $COPI would have no useability outside of the Cornucopias metaverse ecosystem. $COPI does not have any tangible or physical manifestation.
- Build-And Earn: Players have the ability to gather resources and utilise their land to construct buildings which have various utility features including but not limited to; residential houses for players to live in or rent; farms which enable players to grow and harvest crops; merchants which allow players to engage in peer-to-peer commerce; and workshops for players seeking to process their resources and craft items. Using land to build any of the above has the potential to generate in-game currency.
- Learn-and-Earn: Cornucopias would team up with educational centers to build learning into the metaverse, allowing players to become students and will be able to enjoy learning via our educational centers and earn rewards through playing educational mini-games.
- Stake-and-Earn: This allows users to stake tokens to earn rewards by participating in a variety of activities within the Cornucopias metaverse ecosystem, allowing active participants to earn tokens from the reward pool. The exact actions which will be incentivized and exact inventive amounts will be up for governance decision.
- Host-and-Earn: Users may host their own games and can be awarded $COPI tokens in return. Players purchase a license to run a Cornucopias node. There are two types of Host-and-Earn node available; a COPI Data Node and a COPI Game Node. Players who become public node operators will be rewarded with $COPI rewards. This gives power and connectivity to the users. Hosting occurs on players PCs and is an add-on feature available for the Desktop Launcher.
- Over time, the Company intends to incrementally introduce additional competitions, contests, games or modules within the Cornucopias ecosystem, and your interaction with any of the foregoing shall be in accordance with these Terms, including without limitation full compliance with Section 9.A hereof.

By using the Site, the App, NFT and the Smart Contracts, you represent and warrant that:
- you have read and understood these Terms and all documentation on the App or the Site;
- you have good and sufficient experience and understanding of the functionality, usage, storage, transmission mechanisms and other material characteristics of cryptographic tokens, token storage mechanisms (such as token wallets), blockchain technology, blockchain-like technology and blockchain-based software systems to understand these Terms and to appreciate the risks and implications of interacting with the App or creating or holding NFT;
- you acknowledge and agree that we may impose eligibility criteria to access certain functionality in respect of the App or NFT which may require you to incur additional time and money costs;
- you interact with the App, the Cornucopias ecosystem, or create and own NFT for your own account, and shall not undertake the same on behalf of any other entity or person;
- your interaction with the App or creation and/or holding of NFT complies with applicable law and regulation in your jurisdiction, and the law and regulation of any jurisdiction to which you may be subject (including, but not limited to legal capacity and any other threshold requirements for interacting with the App or creation and/or holding of NFT, and interacting with other users within the App or the Cornucopias ecosystem, and any applicable foreign exchange or regulatory restrictions or other governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained;

To the extent required by applicable laws and regulations, you shall fully comply with all Compliance Regulations.
- Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering
- The Company reserves the right to conduct "Know Your Customer" and "Anti-Money Laundering" checks on you if deemed necessary by the Company (at its sole discretion) or such checks become required under applicable laws in any jurisdiction.
- Upon the Company's request, you shall immediately provide the Company with information and documents that the Company, in its sole discretion, deem necessary or appropriate to conduct "Know Your Customer" and "Anti-Money Laundering" checks. Such documents may include, but are not limited to, passports, driver's licenses, utility bills, photographs of associated individuals, government identification cards or sworn statements before notaries or other equivalent professionals.
- Notwithstanding anything herein, the Company may, in its sole discretion, refuse to provide access to NFT, the Smart Contracts, the App or the Site to you until such requested information is provided, or in the event that, based on information available to the Company, you are suspected of using NFT, the Smart Contracts, the App or the Site in connection with any money laundering, terrorism financing, or any other illegal activity. In addition, the Company shall be entitled to use any possible efforts for preventing money laundering, terrorism financing or any other illegal activity, including without limitation blocking of your access to the App, the Site, or Smart Contracts, or providing your information to any regulatory authority.
- You are required to notify the Company of any glitches, exploits or vulnerability (such as bugs, system errors, illegal programs, etc.) in respect of the App or the Services, and must not exploit and/or propagate such information to other users. If you discover any glitches, exploits or vulnerability, do not disclose it to the Company and forward it to another person, this shall be deemed as a breach of these Terms.
- FEES AND PAYMENT
- If you elect to interact with the App or create or hold NFT (whether directly from us or in the peer-to-peer marketplace), any financial transactions that you engage in will be conducted solely through the relevant Blockchain Network. We will have no insight into or control over these payments or transactions, nor do we have the ability to reverse any transactions. With that in mind, we 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 via the App, using the Smart Contracts, relating to NFT, or any other transactions that you conduct via the relevant Blockchain Network.
- The relevant Blockchain Network requires the payment of a transaction fee (a "Gas Fee") for every transaction that occurs on the relevant Blockchain Network. The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run the decentralised network. This means that you will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction that occurs via the App.
- In addition to the Gas Fee, the App may charge a fee for participating in competitions, contests and games, usage of the App or underlying smart Contracts, or any trading activities in relation to NFT, as notified to you from time to time via the most updated fee schedule in the App or the Site (the "Transaction Fee"). For each transaction where a Transaction Fee is payable, we shall endeavour to provide you the opportunity to view and accept the Transaction Fee before confirming the transaction and paying the Transaction Fee. You acknowledge and agree that the Transaction Fee will be transferred directly to us through the relevant Blockchain Network as part of your payment. You must not pay, or attempt to pay, any Transaction Fee by fraudulent or unlawful means.
- As between us, you will be solely responsible to pay any and all sales, use, value-added and other taxes, duties, and assessments (except taxes on our net income) now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any governmental authority (collectively, "Taxes") associated with your use of the App (including, without limitation, any Taxes that may become payable as the result of your ownership or transfer or interaction relating to the App or NFT). Except for income taxes levied on the Company, you:
- will pay or reimburse us for all national, federal, state, local or other taxes and assessments of any jurisdiction, including value added taxes and taxes as required by international tax treaties, customs or other import or export taxes, and amounts levied in lieu thereof based on charges set, services performed or payments made hereunder, as are now or hereafter may be imposed under the authority of any national, state, local or any other taxing jurisdiction; and
- shall not be entitled to deduct the amount of any such taxes, duties or assessments from payments made to us pursuant to these Terms. You confirm that you are not registered for Goods and Services tax or any similar sales tax in Panama, and will inform the Company if your status changes in the future.
- LOSS OF DATA
In the event that any information or data relating to you or your use of the App, the Smart Contracts, Site, any element of the Cornucopias metaverse ecosystem, $COPI, NFTs, or UGC, is lost, corrupted or otherwise no longer reasonably available or accessible (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion), you agree that to the greatest extent permissible at law the Company will have no liability to you of any nature relating to any such information or data.
- TERMINATION
- You may terminate these Terms at any time by cancelling your account on the App and discontinuing your access to and use of the App. You will not receive any refunds if you cancel your account, or otherwise terminate these Terms.
- You agree that we, in our sole discretion and for any or no reason, may terminate these Terms and suspend and/or terminate your account(s) for the App. You agree that any suspension or termination of your access to the App may be without prior notice, and that we will not be liable to you or to any third party for any such suspension or termination. If we terminate these Terms or suspend or terminate your access to or use of the App due to your breach of these Terms or any suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity, then termination of these Terms will be in addition to any other remedies we may have at law or in equity.
- Upon any termination or expiration of these Terms, whether by you or us, you may no longer have access to information that you have posted on the App or that is related to your account, and you acknowledge that we will have no obligation to maintain any such information in our databases or to forward any such information to you or to any third party.
- Sections 1C, 8, 9, 13, 14, 15 and 16 will survive the termination or expiration of these Terms for any reason.
- DISCLAIMERS
- YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE APP AND NFT IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK; THE APP AND NFT IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, "WITH ALL FAULTS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, WE, OUR SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, AND LICENSORS MAKE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES AND HEREBY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, COMMON LAW DUTIES, AND REPRESENTATIONS (EXPRESS, IMPLIED, ORAL, AND WRITTEN) REGARDING THE APP, NFT AND ANY PART OF IT, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, SUCH AS TITLE, NON-INTERFERENCE WITH YOUR ENJOYMENT, AUTHORITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS OR SUITABILITY FOR ANY PURPOSE (WHETHER OR NOT THE COMPANY KNOWS OR HAS REASON TO KNOW OF ANY SUCH PURPOSE), SYSTEM INTEGRATION, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, RESULTS, REASONABLE CARE, WORKMANLIKE EFFORT, LACK OF NEGLIGENCE, AND LACK OF VIRUSES, WHETHER ALLEGED TO ARISE UNDER LAW, BY REASON OF CUSTOM OR USAGE IN THE TRADE, OR BY COURSE OF DEALING. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, WE, OUR SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, AND LICENSORS DO NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT TO YOU THAT: (I) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE APP OR NFT WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (II) THE APP OR NFT WILL OPERATE PROPERTY OR YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE APP OR NFT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, BUG FREE, OR ERROR FREE IN ANY OR ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, (III) THAT ANY DEFECTS IN THE APP OR NFT CAN OR WILL BE CORRECTED (IV) USAGE DATA PROVIDED THROUGH THE APP OR NFT WILL BE ACCURATE, (IV) THE NFT OR APP OR ANY CONTENT, SERVICES, OR FEATURES MADE AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE APP ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR (V) THAT ANY DATA THAT YOU DISCLOSE WHEN YOU USE THE APP OR NFT WILL BE SECURE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES IN CONTRACTS WITH CONSUMERS, SO SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
- YOU ACCEPT THE INHERENT SECURITY RISKS OF PROVIDING INFORMATION AND DEALING ONLINE OVER THE INTERNET, AND AGREE THAT WE HAVE NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY BREACH OF SECURITY UNLESS IT IS DUE TO OUR WILFUL DEFAULT. In particular, you are aware and acknowledge that cyberthieves, scammers and other bad actors may attempt to impersonate the Company, takeover or hack the Site (and related domains) or the Company's social media accounts or in-game messaging tools, and/or other malicious activity, thereby providing you with malicious/scam website, links, information, announcements or call-to-action designed to fraudulently acquire your information, data, digital assets, digital wallet addresses or identity, or to falsify digital wallet address information in a manner designed to pay said bad actor instead of the Company; all the foregoing incidents may result in losses suffered by you and we have no liability or responsibility in respect of these actions of bad actors. You shall take all appropriate care to ensure that you check and verify with the Company or other independent sources any websites, links, information, announcements, call-to-actions, digital wallet addresses which you may come across in connection with the Cornucopias game ecosystem.
- TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY LOSSES YOU INCUR AS THE RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE RELEVANT BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK OR THE METAMASK ELECTRONIC WALLET, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY LOSSES, DAMAGES OR CLAIMS ARISING FROM: (i) USER ERROR, SUCH AS FORGOTTEN PASSWORDS OR INCORRECTLY CONSTRUED SMART CONTRACTS OR OTHER TRANSACTIONS; (ii) SERVER FAILURE OR DATA LOSS; (iii) CORRUPTED WALLET FILES; OR (iv) UNAUTHORISED ACCESS OR ACTIVITIES BY THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE USE OF VIRUSES, PHISHING, BRUTEFORCING OR OTHER MEANS OF ATTACK AGAINST THE APP OR NFT, THE RELEVANT BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK, OR THE METAMASK ELECTRONIC WALLET.
- NFTS ARE INTANGIBLE DIGITAL ASSETS THAT EXIST ONLY BY VIRTUE OF THE OWNERSHIP RECORD MAINTAINED IN THE RELEVANT BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK. ALL SMART CONTRACTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE CORNUCOPIAS ECOSYSTEM ARE DEPLOYED ON AND INTERACTIONS/TRANSACTIONS WITH THE SAME OCCUR ON THE DECENTRALISED LEDGER WITHIN THE RELEVANT BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK. WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER AND MAKE NO GUARANTEES OR PROMISES WITH RESPECT TO SMART CONTRACTS.
- THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR LOSSES DUE TO BLOCKCHAINS OR ANY OTHER FEATURES OF THE RELEVANT BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK OR THE METAMASK ELECTRONIC WALLET, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LATE REPORT BY DEVELOPERS OR REPRESENTATIVES (OR NO REPORT AT ALL) OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE BLOCKCHAIN SUPPORTING THE RELEVANT BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK, INCLUDING FORKS, TECHNICAL NODE ISSUES, OR ANY OTHER ISSUES HAVING FUND LOSSES AS A RESULT.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
- TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE COMPANY, ITS SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, SERVICE PROVIDERS AND LICENSORS (THE "COMPANY PARTIES") WILL NOT BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY TO YOU OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHICH YOU MAY INCUR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF (OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE) ANY PORTION OF THE APP OR NFT, HOWSOEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOSS OF PROFITS (WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY), LOSS OF GOODWILL OR BUSINESS REPUTATION, LOSS OF DATA, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS, EVEN IF THE COMPANY PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND EVEN IN THE EVENT OF ANY COMPANY PARTY'S FAULT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, INDEMNITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE.
- FURTHER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT THE TOTAL, AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY PARTIES TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF (OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE) ANY PORTION OF THE APP OR NFT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (I) THE AMOUNTS YOU ACTUALLY PAY TO THE COMPANY IN THE 12 MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENTS GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY, OR (II) US$200. THESE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS REGARDING DAMAGES APPLY EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS TO PROVIDE ADEQUATE COMPENSATION.
- YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE COMPANY HAS MADE THE APP AND NFT AVAILABLE TO YOU AND ENTERED INTO THESE TERMS IN RELIANCE UPON THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN, WHICH REFLECT A REASONABLE AND FAIR ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND THE COMPANY. THE COMPANY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE APP AND NFT TO YOU WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.
- SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, AND SOME JURISDICTIONS ALSO LIMIT DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY FROM CONSUMER PRODUCTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS.
- ASSUMPTION OF RISK
You accept and acknowledge each of the following:
- The prices of blockchain assets are extremely volatile. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect the value of your NFT, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. We cannot guarantee that any purchasers of NFT will not lose money.
- You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your interaction relating to the App or NFT. The Company is not responsible for determining the taxes that apply to your transactions on the App, the Site, or the Smart Contracts.
- The App does not store, send, or receive NFT. This is because NFT exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained on the App’s supporting blockchain in the relevant Blockchain Network. Any transfer of NFT occurs within the supporting blockchain in the relevant Blockchain Network, and not on the App.
- The App and any publicly deployed Smart Contracts you interact with may contain security vulnerabilities, errors, failures, bugs or economic loopholes which may be exploited by third parties. Interaction with the App and Smart Contracts are entirely your own responsibility and liability.
- At any time, your access to the App, NFT or any digital assets, 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 NFT or digital assets diminishing in value or you being unable to interact with a Smart Contract, the App or the Site. The App or the Site may be suspended or terminated for any or no reason, which may limit your access to your digital assets.
- 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 unauthorised access to information stored within your account or wallet. You accept and acknowledge that the Company will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience in connection with the App, the Smart Contracts, NFT or when using the relevant Blockchain Network, however caused.
- Because the App and NFT is based on blockchain technology, any malfunction, breakdown or abandonment of the relevant Blockchain Network may have a material adverse effect on the App or any NFT you own. Moreover, advances in cryptography, or technical advances such as the development of quantum computing, could present risks to the App or NFT, any underlying digital assets, or the relevant Blockchain Network by rendering ineffective the cryptographic consensus mechanism that underpins the relevant Blockchain Network. The future of cryptography and security innovations are highly unpredictable.
- A private key, or a combination of private keys, is necessary to control and dispose of NFT stored in your digital wallet, vault or other storage mechanism. Accordingly, loss of requisite private key(s) associated with such digital wallet, vault or other storage mechanism storing NFT may result in loss of such NFT. Moreover, any third party that gains access to such private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials, may be able to misappropriate any NFT held by you. The Company cannot be responsible for any such losses.
- Hackers or other malicious groups or organisations may attempt to interfere with the App, the Smart Contracts, the Site or NFT in a variety of ways, including, but not limited to, malware attacks, denial of service attacks, consensus-based attacks, Sybil attacks, smurfing and spoofing, which may result in losses incurred by you.
- A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems could negatively impact the development of the Cornucopias ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of the App or NFT.
- The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, digital assets and tokens is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Cornucopias ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of the App or NFT.
- An upgrade, hard fork, or a change in how transactions are confirmed on the relevant Blockchain Network may have unintended, adverse effects on all blockchains using the ERC-20, ERC-721, or ERC-1155 standard, including the Cornucopias ecosystem.
- Blockchain-based applications and cryptographic tokens such as the App or NFT are a new and untested technology. In addition to the aforementioned risks, there may be other risks associated with your interaction with the APP and holding or use of NFT, including those that the Company cannot anticipate. Such risks may further materialise as unanticipated variations or combinations of the risks discussed herein.
- INDEMNIFICATION
- TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, YOU AGREE TO HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNIFY THE COMPANY PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, LIABILITY, LOSS, DAMAGE (ACTUAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL) OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, EXPENSE, ACTION SUIT, JUDGMENT, LITIGATION COST, AND ATTORNEYS' FEES, COSTS AND EXPERT WITNESS' FEES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO (I) ANY CLAIM THAT, IF TRUE, WOULD CONSTITUTE A BREACH BY YOU OF THESE TERMS, (II) ANY ACT OR OMISSION BY YOU IN USING THE APP OR NFT, (III) YOUR VIOLATION OF APPLICABLE LAWS, RULES OR REGULATIONS IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE APP OR NFT, OR (IV) ANY CLAIM OF INFRINGEMENT OR VIOLATION OF ANY THIRD-PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ARISING FROM THE COMPANY'S USE OF YOUR UGC OR FEEDBACK AS PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS.
- You agree to reimburse the Company on demand for any defence costs incurred by any Company Party and any payments made or loss suffered by any Company Party, whether in a court judgment or settlement, based on any matter covered by this Section 16.
- You agree that the Company will have control of the defence or settlement of any claims relating to this Section 16.
- EXTERNAL WEBSITES AND SERVICES
- The App may offer you the option to access other websites or resources, in particular third party websites, software, services, advertisements or third-party materials (collectively, "External Services"), which are provided solely as a convenience to users.
- The Company has no control over any External Services. Prior to accessing any External Services, you should carefully read any applicable terms and conditions, privacy policies and any relevant documentation relating to such External Services.
- You acknowledge and agree that the Company is not responsible for the availability of any External Services or your interactions with them, and that the Company does not endorse any information, advertising, products or other materials on or made available from any External Services.
- Furthermore, you acknowledge and agree that the Company is not liable for any loss or damage which may be incurred as a result of your usage of or the availability or unavailability of the External Services, or as a result of any reliance placed by you upon the completeness, accuracy or existence of any information advertising, products or other materials on, or made available from, any External Services.
- CHANGES TO THE APP
We are constantly innovating the App to help provide the best possible experience. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the App, and any part of it, may change from time to time without prior notice to you, and that we may add new features and change any part of the App at any time without notice.
- PRIVACY POLICY AND USER DATA
- Our Privacy Policy (https://cornucopias.io/legal/privacy-policy) describes the ways we collect, use, store and disclose your personal information, and is hereby incorporated by this reference into these Terms. You agree to the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of your data in accordance with the aforementioned Privacy Policy.
- We will maintain certain data that you transmit to the Site, the App and the Smart Contracts for the purpose of managing the performance of the Site, the App and the Smart Contracts, as well as data relating to your use of the Site, the App and the Smart Contracts.

You agree that we shall have no liability to you for any loss or corruption of any such data, and you hereby waive any right of action against us arising from any such loss or corruption of such data.
- GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION (ARBITRATION)
- Please read this Section 20 carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with the Company, and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from the Company.
- These Terms and your use access to and use of the Services will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Panama, without regard to conflict of law rules and principles (whether of Panama or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
- All disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms (including without limitation the enforceability of this Section 20 or any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, your access or use of the App, the Site, or the Smart Contracts, or to any products sold or distributed through the App, the Site, or the Smart Contracts) shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration, following an attempt at Conciliation, administered by Panama Conciliation and Arbitration Centre in accordance with its procedural rules for the time being in force. The tribunal shall consist of 1 arbitrator, who shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement. The language used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. Each Party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction and venue of such tribunal. Each party will cover its own fees and costs associated with the arbitration proceedings. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may seek and obtain injunctive relief in any jurisdiction in any court of competent jurisdiction, and you agree that these Terms are specifically enforceable by the Company through injunctive relief and other equitable remedies without proof of monetary damages.
- WITH RESPECT TO ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DISPUTES RELATED TO THE APP, THE SITE, THE SMART CONTRACTS, OR ANY PRODUCTS SOLD OR DISTRIBUTED THROUGH THE APP, THE SITE, OR THE SMART CONTRACTS: (I) YOU HEREBY EXPRESSLY GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY; AND (II) YOU HEREBY EXPRESSLY GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS IN ANY LAWSUIT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS INVOLVING ANY SUCH DISPUTE.
- GENERAL
- These Terms and any document or information referred to in these Terms or incorporated by reference constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company relating to the subject matter(s) covered by these Terms. All other communications, proposals, and representations with respect to the same subject matter(s), whether written or oral, whether occurring prior, contemporaneously or after, are expressly excluded.

- The language in these Terms will be interpreted as to its fair meaning, and not strictly for or against any party.
- You may not assign, transfer, charge or sub-contract any or your rights or obligations under these Terms, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the Company's prior written consent; any attempt to effect the foregoing without such consent will be null and void. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Company may assign, transfer, charge or sub-contract all or any of its rights and obligations under these Terms in its sole discretion (without your consent) to an affiliate for any reason, including without limitation any assignment or novation in connection with a reincorporation to change the Company's domicile.
- Should any provision or part-provision of these Terms is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, it shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal and enforceable; if such modification is not possible, the relevant provision or part-provision shall be deemed deleted.
