Introduction. Welcome to the SSV Network site (www.ssv.network) a website-hosted user interface (the “Site“) for the SSV Network. The Site provides interface-only access to and information to the SSV App (https://app.ssv.network), the “App” and the SSV Network, a distributed, open-sourced and non-custodial infrastructure for proof-of-stake validation (the “Network”) running on the Ethereum blockchain. The Network is built, maintained, and governed by the SSV community, a decentralized autonomous organization (the “Protocol”, or the “DAO“). These terms of service (these “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Site (the “Site” or the “Platform”). The Site is operated by SSV Foundation, headquartered in the Cayman Islands, and its affiliates (collectively, “Company“, “we”, “our”, or “us”).

These Terms govern your access and use of the Platform (the “Services”). Access and use of the Protocol and the App are not covered by the Service, and the Company is not liable for any use of the Protocol. When using the App you will be subject to the App terms and conditions, for which the Company is not liable.

When using or accessing the Site, Protocol or App you will also be subject to our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect and use your personal information and the use of tracking technologies in relation to the Platform. We encourage you to review the Privacy Policy available in [insert hyperlink to the privacy policy] together with these Terms before accessing the Platform.

Specific services may also be subject to specific terms and conditions (the “Specific Terms”). For details on this kindly refer to [page on the T&C for IMP and other relevant ones to be included]. In case of any inconsistency between these Terms and such Specific Terms, the Specific Terms shall prevail.

You must read the Terms carefully. The Terms form a legal agreement between you and the Company. By accessing or using our Site, accessing the Protocol or App, you agree that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Platform. If you are acting for or on behalf of an entity, you hereby represent and warrant that you are authorised to accept these Terms and enter into a binding agreement with us on such entity’s behalf, and you accept these Terms both on behalf of such entity and on your own behalf.

  1. THE PROTOCOL AND SMART CONTRACTS

Protocol. The Protocol is a software protocol that allows for the staking of Digital Assets to support actively validated services. The Protocol is based on underlying Smart Contracts and other documentation which is not part of the Services – this information is being provided on a non-reliance basis and for information purposes only. We do not control the Protocol, the blockchain on which it operates, its activity and data, nor do we take possession of any Digital Assets. The Protocol may be subject to their own terms and conditions, and by using the Protocol you will be subject to those terms and these Terms do not prevail over them. 

Smart Contracts. You acknowledge and agree that the use of the Services is linked to the use of Smart Contracts. We do not control the access to the smart contracts once these are deployed by the DAO, nor are we liable for their use. By using the Services you represent to have the required experience and knowledge on smart contracts, including that they are publicly accessible and may be reviewed, used or distributed by any person subject to open-source licenses.

  1. FEES AND TAXES

Using the Services is not subject to any monetary requirements nor do we charge any fees under the Services. However, the use of the Network or Protocol may be subject to applicable taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments. When accessing the Network or Protocol through our Platform it is your sole responsibility to determine whether, and to what extent, any taxes apply and to withhold, collect, report and remit the correct amount of tax to the appropriate tax authorities.

In addition, using the Network and activities in Digital Assets in general may also be subject to exchange fees, developers’ fees and network fees (including gas and mining fees), for which you will be solely responsible. We don’t have any responsibility for any costs you will absorb in your use of the Network. We recommend that you check from time to time the Documentation for updated fees liability, as periodically determined by the SSV Network. The Documentation may be found here: https://docs.ssv.network.

  1. REPRESENTATIONS

With respect to your use of the Services, you hereby represent and warrant that you understand that:

  1. the Company does not provide an investment advisory service, nor is it a registered investment advisor, broker-dealer or tax advisor and does not purport to convey or suggest the value of any assets or which assets users should buy or sell, or to the desirability of mining, staking or otherwise using the Platform’s features and services. Terms “investment”, “investing”, “deposit” and other similar terms as these may be used in the Platform and Documentation are not meant to mean investment service in this sense; 
  2. the Platform is not a registered or licensed trading platform, clearinghouse, exchange platform, bank, depository institution, investment firm or financial service provider and does not purport to convey or suggest otherwise. The Platform, including any Documentation, is not intended to constitute an offer of securities or Digital Assets or a solicitation for investment in, or purchase of securities or Digital Assets in any jurisdiction, nor is it intended to constitute a prospectus or offer document of any type;
  3. the Platform merely provide informative resources and an access interface to the Network and the Company has no control over transactions in the Network or Platform or in any underlying blockchain networks; 
  4. the Company assumes no responsibility or liability for your use of the Platform and or for your staking results through the Network, including for any losses, damages, unrealized gains, liquidity shortages, thefts or slashing penalties arising from your use of the Platform; and accessing and interacting with the Network does not require the use of the Platform and you may use other web and mobile interfaces to connect to the Network. We do not own, operate or control the Network (or any other blockchain network) and assume no responsibility for the risks of your interaction with the Network, particularly for your staking activity.

BEFORE MAKING ANY TRANSACTION OR OTHER ACTION THROUGH THE PLATFORM, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK WITH YOUR LICENSED FINANCIAL ADVISOR AND TAX ADVISOR TO DETERMINE THE SUITABILITY OF ANY TRANSACTION OR OTHER ACTION. EVERY TIME YOU USE THE PLATFORM YOU AGREE THAT IN ALL CASES THE COMPANY BEARS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSSES INCURRED.

  1. DISCLAIMERS

Staking validation using the Network is based on Smart Contracts, cryptographic tokens generated by the Smart Contracts, and other nascent software, applications, and systems that interact with blockchain-based networks. These technologies are experimental, speculative, inherently risky, and subject to technological and regulatory changes. These risks include, without limitation:

  • Virtual platform risks: bugs, errors, failures, malfunctions, and cyberattacks.
  • Slashing risks: the risk of losing all or part of your stake (“slashing”) in the validation process, whether caused by a failure in your systems or third party systems or network failures. You are solely responsible for the results of your validation process and we have no responsibility or otherwise provide any guarantee to the success of your staking and use of the Network.
  • Blockchain risks: including changes to the applicable blockchain networks (e.g., forks). Blockchain networks are immutable so that recorded transactions must be treated as permanent and cannot be undone by us or anyone.
  • Market risks: trading, dealing or investing in cryptoassets is exposed to extreme markets risks, including volatility, illiquidity, costs and network congestion, which could result in losing all or part of your funds.
  • Wallet risks: access to the Protocol through our Platform requires the use of third party wallet applications that we have no connection to or control of (“Third Party Wallet”). Your use of Third Party Wallet carries the risks of losing your keystore files, passwords, mnemonic phrases or private keys which you must keep safe at all times. You are solely responsible for safeguarding your Third Party Wallet credentials. The Platform does not provide any custody, possession, or control of your funds, digital assets and private keys at any time. We accept no responsibility for, or liability to you, any losses and damages resulted from your Third Party Wallets.
  • Regulatory risks: the use of blockchain technology, decentralized organizations, and decentralized finance services are mostly unregulated in most jurisdictions. Future regulations, however, may lead to substantial changes in the accompanying rules, conditions, costs and taxes applicable to the Platform and the Network.
  • Malicious activities: risks relating to the unauthorized or illegal activities that may occur on the Network or Third Party Wallet, including any attempted or realized attacks and thefts of your private credentials and keys;
  • Beta releases: for any part of the Network that is identified by us as a “beta” version (“Beta Service”), when accessing the Network through our Platform you acknowledge and agree that a Beta Service may contain more or fewer features than the final release of that service. Beta Services may not be suitable for production use and may contain errors affecting proper operation and functionality.

You acknowledge and agree that your use of the Platform to interact with the Network involves those risks and the Company shall not have any liability for any losses incurred for such uses.
