You acknowledge and agree that Component has no control over any Distributed Ledger Technology transactions, the third-party services or products used to access Distributed Ledger Technology or payments thereon, the method of payment of any Charges, if applicable, or any actual payments of Charges or amounts thereto, if applicable.

‍We may, at Our sole discretion, with or without prior notice to You (unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing), modify, suspend or disable, temporarily or permanently, the Services offered by Component, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, including, but not limited to, as a result of a security incident.

‍You shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Component, our affiliates and subsidiaries, and our and our affiliates’ and subsidiaries’ respective shareholders, members, directors, officers, employees, representatives, suppliers, licensors, attorneys, agents, and contractors (collectively, “Indemnitees”) from any claim, demand, lawsuit, action, proceeding, investigation, liability, damage, loss, costs or expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to Your use of, or conduct in connection with, the Sites, the Services, Distributed Ledger Technology assets associated with Your Distributed Ledger Technology Address, any other digital assets, Your Content; Your violation of these Terms; Your violation of any Applicable Law or regulations; Your gross negligence or intentional misconduct; or Your infringement or misappropriation of the rights of any other person or entity. If You are obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee, Component (or, at its discretion, the applicable Indemnitee) will have the right, in its sole discretion, to control any legal action or proceeding arising therefrom.

‍Notices and Communications

‍You consent to receive all communications, policies, invoices, notices, and disclosures electronically (collectively, our “Communications”) that we provide in connection with these Terms or any Services. You agree that we may provide our Communications to You by posting them on any of the Sites or through the Services or by emailing them to You at any email address You provide in connection with using the Services. You may also contact us to request additional electronic copies of our Communications by emailing General@component.fi.

‍Disclosures

‍Component does not operate an exchange platform of any kind or offer trade execution or clearing services with respect to traditional or digital assets and therefore has no oversight, involvement, or control with respect to Your transactions pursuant to the Sites or Services or any Distributed Ledger Technology. You are responsible for complying with all Applicable Law and regulations applicable to Your transactions. Component does not own or control the underlying software protocols that are used in connection with the Sites and Services, including but not limited to all applicable public blockchains and deployed code and assets thereupon. In general, the underlying protocols on which the Services are based are open-source and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. Component is not responsible for operation of the underlying protocols, and Component makes no guarantee of their functionality, security, or availability.

To the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, the Sites and the Services (and any of their content or functionality) provided by or on behalf of Us are provided on an “AS IS” basis, and we expressly disclaim, and You hereby waive, any representations, conditions or warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, legal, statutory or otherwise, or arising from statute, otherwise in law, course of dealing, or usage of trade, including, without limitation, the implied or legal warranties and conditions of merchantability, quality or fitness for a particular purpose, title, security, availability, reliability, accuracy, quiet enjoyment and non-infringement of third party rights. Without limiting the foregoing, We do not represent or warrant that the Sites or the Services (including any related data) will be uninterrupted, available at any particular time or error-free. We do not warrant that errors in the Sites or the Service are correctable or will be corrected beyond good faith measures by Us, to the extent possible and practical.

You acknowledge that Your data on the Sites or through the Services may become permanently lost or corrupted or temporarily unavailable due to a variety of causes, and agree that, to the maximum extent permitted under Applicable Law, we will not be liable for any loss or damage caused by denial-of-service attacks, 51% attacks, software failures, lost private or public keys, viruses or other technologically harmful materials (including those which may infect Your computer equipment), protocol changes by third party providers, Internet outages, force majeure events or other disasters, scheduled or unscheduled maintenance, or other causes either within or outside our control. The disclaimer of implied warranties contained in these Terms may not apply if and to the extent such warranties cannot be excluded or limited under the Applicable Law of the jurisdiction in which You reside.

‍Limitation of Damages and Liability

‍Component, together with any Indemnitee, shall not in any event be liable for any incidental, indirect, special, punitive, exemplary, consequential or similar damages or liabilities whatsoever (including, without limitation, damages for loss of data, information, revenue or other business or financial benefit) arising out of or in connection with any of the Sites and/or Services (and any of their content and functionality), any execution or settlement of a transaction, any performance or non-performance of the Services, Your Distributed Ledger Technology assets, other digital assets or any other product, service or other item provided by or on behalf of an Indemnitee, whether under contract, tort (including negligence), civil liability, statute, strict liability, breach of warranties, or under any other theory of liability, and whether or not any Indemnitee has been advised of, knew of or should have known of the possibility of such damages and notwithstanding any failure of the essential purpose of these Terms or any limited remedy nor is Component in any way responsible for the execution or settlement of transactions between users of the Services.

In no event will the Indemnitees' aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Sites and the Services (and any of their content and functionality), any performance or non-performance of the Services, Your Distributed Ledger Technology assets, other digital assets or any other product, service or other item provided by or on behalf of an Indemnitee, whether under contract, tort (including negligence), civil liability, statute, strict liability or other theory of liability exceed the amount of the fees paid by You to Us under these Terms in the one year period immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim for liability.
‍
‍Waiver

‍To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, in consideration for being allowed to use any of the Sites and the Services, You hereby release and forever discharge Component and all Indemnitees from, and hereby waive and relinquish, each and every past, present and future dispute, claim, controversy, demand, right, obligation, liability, action and cause of action of every kind and nature (including personal injuries, death, and property damage), that has arisen or arises directly or indirectly out of, or that relates directly or indirectly to, any of the Sites and/or the Services (including any interactions with, or act or omission of, other Sites, Services, or Component users or any third-party services). YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY APPLICABLE PROVISION IN LAW OR REGULATION IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING, WHICH STATES IN SUBSTANCE: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

‍Arbitration

‍These terms require You to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Component and limit the manner in which You can seek relief from us, unless You opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. In addition, arbitration precludes You from suing in court or having a jury trial. You and Component agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services is personal to You and Component and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

You and Component waive Your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services resolved in court. For any dispute or claim that You have against Component or relating in any way to the Services, You agree to first contact Component and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of Your claim (“Notice”) to Component by email at General@component.fi. The Notice must include Your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number, describe the nature and basis of the claim and set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to You will be similar in form to that described above. If You and Component cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to AAA will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator. The most recent version of the AAA Rules are available on the AAA Website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You acknowledge and agree that You have read and understand the AAA Rules or waive Your opportunity to read the AAA Rules and waive any claim that the AAA Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

The arbitrator, Component, and You will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented in relation to the disputes. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision. You and Component agree that for any arbitration You initiate, You will pay the filing fee and any remaining AAA fees and costs.

Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that You or Component, as applicable, will not have the right to assert the claim. You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date You first accepted these Terms by emailing us at General@component.fi.

‍Severability and Governing Law

‍If any portion of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed from these Terms, and the severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision will have no impact whatsoever on the remainder or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis, and to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims will be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration.

The interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and any dispute related to these Terms, the Sites or the Services, will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, as applicable, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles. You agree that we may initiate a proceeding related to the enforcement or validity of our intellectual property rights in any court having jurisdiction. With respect to any other proceeding that is not subject to arbitration under these Terms, the courts located in the State of Delaware will have exclusive jurisdiction. You waive any objection to venue in such courts.
‍
‍Miscellaneous

‍Any right or remedy of Component set forth in these Terms is in addition to any other right or remedy whether described in these Terms, under Applicable Law, at law or in equity. Our failure or delay in exercising any right, power, or privilege under these Terms will not operate as a waiver thereof. The illegality or unenforceability of any of these Terms will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other of these Terms, all of which will remain in full force and effect. We will have no responsibility or liability for any failure or delay in performance of the Sites or any of the Services, or any loss or damage that You may incur, due to any circumstance or event beyond our control, including without limitation any flood, extraordinary weather conditions, earthquake, or other act of God, fire, pandemic or infectious disease, war, insurrection, riot, accident, governmental condition, communications, power failure, or equipment or software malfunction. You may not assign or transfer any right to use any of the Sites or the Services, or any of Your rights or obligations under these Terms, without our express prior written consent, including by operation of law or in connection with any change of control. We may assign or transfer any or all of our rights or obligations under these Terms, in whole or in part, without notice or obtaining Your consent or approval. Headings of sections are for convenience only and will not be used to limit or construe such sections. These Terms contain the entire agreement and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings between the parties regarding the Sites and the Services. If there is a conflict between these Terms and any other agreement You may have with us, these Terms will control unless the other agreement specifically identifies these Terms and declares that the other agreement supersedes these Terms.
