Terms and Conditions

28.11.2022

(“Unbound”) provides a website-hosted User interface (the “Interface”). The Interface provides access to a platform, supporting EVM compatible blockchains, that allows Users to delegate their non-fungible tokens (“NFT(s)”) to gamers in return for a rental fee which amounts to a part of the award that can be won by such gamers in the game, peer-to-pool in a permissionless manner (the “Platform”). The Interface is available via the following link app.unboundnation.io.

These are the terms and conditions (the “Terms”) of Unbound, which govern your use of the Interface. Your use of the Interface implies your acceptance of these Terms. You must read them carefully. If you do not agree, you are not authorized to access or use the Interface and should not use the Interface. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. These Terms apply to all Users of the Interface and any other dealings between Unbound and its users (as defined below) and any services provided by Unbound (all of these uses, dealings and services are together defined as the “Services”). Unbound offers its Services on the condition that the User accepts these Terms. By making use of the Services, you agree to and accept to be bound by these Terms and other terms, including but not limited to Unbound’s privacy policy (incorporated herein by reference).

Unbound may amend these Terms from time to time at its own discretion. By continuing to making use of the Services, you agree to and accept to be bound by the latest version of the Terms. The latest version of the Terms always applies between Unbound and you, as accessible at any time on the homepage of the Unbound website, and incorporated herein by reference. You may not use the Services if you do not accept any of the Terms.

1 Definitions

Insofar not defined in these Terms, the following terms when capitalized in these Terms shall have the following meaning:

1.1 Unbound: Unbound Nation AG, a stock company under Swiss law, having its registered office at Baarerstrasse 10, 6300 Zug, Switzerland and registered in the Swiss commercial register. Also referred to as “we”, “us”, “our”.

1.2 User(s): any legal entity or natural person that makes use of the Services, including Owners (as defined below) and Gamers (as defined below). Also referred to as “you” and “your”.

1.3 Party(ies): Unbound and the User, together.

2. Unbound: How does it work?

2.1 Unbound provides the Interface to access the Platform. Our goal is to provide an Interface which allows the use of the Platform in the most transparent way.

2.2 While third-party owners (“Owner(s)”) are able to delegate their NFTs for use, other Users who are willing to play with such NFTs (”Gamer(s)”) can obtain a worldwide non-transferable, non-sublicensable and exclusive right to use such NFTs in return for a reward share earned by such Gamer or for a fixed fee. The Platform sets the following pre-defined terms and conditions which apply to each delegation for use of NFTs through the Platform:

  • Owners cannot choose which Gamer plays its NFTs;
  • There is no guarantee that delegated NFTs will be used by Gamers;
  • Gamers can play with NFTs but are unable to further transfer or assign such NFTs;
  • Any reward realized by a Gamer will be split and has to be claimed by Gamer and Owner;
  • Applicable reward split or fixed fee, will be displayed within the Interface;
  • Owner can at any time, claim its NFTs back;
  • Owner can only claim back the NFTs to the same wallet he/she/it used for the delegation of the NFTs.

2.3 Users can create an account (“Account”) to use the Interface. To create an Account, we will require you to connect your EVM compatible blockchain address and optionally provide certain information about yourself and we may, at our sole discretion, require you to provide further information and/or documents at any stage during your use of the Interface. Information provided by you to create your Account must be accurate and complete. By creating an Account, you agree that you alone will be responsible (to Unbound and to others) for all activity that occurs under your Account.

2.4 Unbound may at its absolute and sole discretion change, update, amend, remove, or discontinue any part of the Interface and the Services at any time without prior notice to you. During updates, unforeseen events (including but not limited to DDoS), upgrades and maintenance of the Interface it might be that the Interface is not accessible for a certain period of time. In non-emergency cases, Unbound will inform the Users by displaying the maintenance break time on the Unbound website.

3. The role of Unbound

3.1 Unbound provides the Interface for deploying NFTs for delegation to use such NFTs for gaming purposes. Unbound does not actively monitor any delegation or the lifecycle of a delegation executed via the Interface and other content which is uploaded by Users on the Interface (the “User Content”).

3.2 Unbound may remove User Content on the Interface at its sole discretion, including but not limited on the grounds that it violates these Terms. For the avoidance of any doubt, Unbound is not in a position to remove the underlying smart contracts. Removing User Content or terminating an Account is not an action Unbound takes lightly, and Unbound may take a while to investigate and determine if User Content or an Account should be removed. It is at Unbound‘s sole discretion whether to discuss the reasons regarding the removal of User Content, including the removal of a User Account.

3.3 Unbound is not a financial institution, creditor and/or charity: the main purpose of the Services is to administrate the Interface. Unbound does not warrant the accuracy, correctness and completeness of the information provided by Users and takes no responsibility for such information. Any and all information provided by Users and/or Unbound and published on the Interface do not constitute legal, financial or investment advice. Information provided by Users and/or Unbound does not replace the advice from qualified advisors and the examination as to whether these crypto assets meet the User’s own requirements in respect of the User’s own objectives, experience and/or knowledge.

3.4 All information and content provided by Unbound relating to the Services is for information purposes only and Unbound does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, timeliness or reliability of any such information or content. No content is intended to serve as financial, legal, tax or other professional advice. You acknowledge that all information and content accessed by you when using the Interface is at your own risk.

3.5 Unbound has no control over the conduct of, or any information provided by, an Owner or a Gamer and hereby disclaims all liability in this regard to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Unbound offers the Interface to help Users to access the Platform. Unbound does not guarantee that an NFT will be played by a Gamer or that a Gamer earns a reward with Owner’s NFT. There is always the possibility that something unexpected may occur with regard to crypto assets, which could cause the User’s crypto assets to be lost. Unbound strongly recommends to the User only to interact with as many crypto assets as he/she/it is willing to lose. Each User is solely responsible for any decisions made by him/her/itself.

4.0 Custody and fiduciary duties

4.1 You are solely responsible for the custody of the cryptographic private keys to the crypto asset wallets you hold. We do not guarantee any remedy, refund or other forms of compensation in the event that there is any loss of your crypto assets (whether it is due to your own actions / omissions or the acts or omissions of external parties).

4.2 Unbound undertakes to keep all NFTs of the Owners at any time available. Owners herewith agree that Gamers can obtain the exclusive right to use such NFTs through the Platform and the Interface. Unbound ensures that Gamers are unable to further transfer or assign such NFTs and can only play with such NFTs in accordance with the rules of the respective game. All NFTs provided by Owners shall be accounted separately from each other and shall not be commingled with Unbound’s own assets.

5.0 Representations and warranties of the Users

5.1 The Owner hereby represents and warrants (i) that he/she/it is the sole legal and beneficial owner of the NFTs, (ii)that the NFTs are free and clear of any pledge or encumbrance, (iii) are not the proceeds of a crime and (iv) that the Owner of the NFTs has all necessary rights and license to delegate its NFTs.

5.2 The Gamer hereby represents and warrants that he/she/it uses a NFT solely for the purpose of gaming within the applicable game. Any other use of NFTs is prohibited.

You further acknowledge and accept the risk that your digital assets may lose some or all of their value while they are supplied to the Platform through the Interface, you may suffer loss due to the fluctuation of prices of tokens in a trading pair or liquidity pool, and, especially in expert modes, experience significant price slippage and cost. You understand that anyone can create a token, including fake versions of existing tokens and tokens that falsely claim to represent projects, and acknowledge and accept the risk that you may mistakenly trade those or other tokens. You further acknowledge that we are not responsible for any of these variables or risks, do not own or control the Platform, and cannot be held liable for any resulting losses that you experience while accessing or using the Interface. Accordingly, you understand and agree to assume full responsibility for all of the risks of accessing and using the Interface to interact with the Platform.

11.0 Fees / Reward share

For every transaction within the Interface (i.e. providing NFTs, claim rewards, reclaim NFTs), a Gas fee may apply. Gas fees are set by you through your independent wallet application, based on the market conditions.

11.2 While Gamers are playing with NFTs, they might earn a reward from the games (the “Reward”). Such reward shall be shared between the Gamer, the Owner and Unbound in order to cover the costs of maintaining the Interface (the “Interface Fee”). The exact split is dependent on the specific NFT and its game. As a general rule, the Gamer receives between 0-50% of the Reward, the Owner receives between 0-50% of the Reward and Unbound receives between 0-50% of the Reward. The applicable Reward split for a specific game will be published via the Interface. The Reward split may be adjusted from time to time at the sole discretion of Unbound. Sometimes a fixed fee might be applicable instead of a Reward share. Such fixed fee for a specific game will be published via the Interface. This fixed fee may be adjusted from time to time at the sole discretion of Unbound.

11.3 If Rewards are airdropped by the Game. Gamers, Owners and Unbound may have to claim their Rewards independently. Rewards received from the Game can be claimed at any time.
