"DApp" shall mean the decentralised application that runs on a decentralised network and works autonomously, to which you will have access through the Website;
"Digital Assets" are assets classified as digital in nature, borne of technology, with classes, including RWA products or tokens and any digital item with value, ownership and discoverability;

2. INTERFACE
2.1
Evolve aims to develop and deploy an Interface Platform for access to decentralised protocols on various public blockchains, including but not limited to Ethereum, Jovay and Solana, that allows Users to trade certain compatible Digital Assets.
2.2
Evolve's goal is to continue to develop the software Interface and expand geographically for team collaboration in real life.
2.3
You may need to complete several steps to access the decentralised protocols, including but not limited to:
- agreeing to these Terms;
- creating a Third-party Wallet, if none;
- providing your Third-party Wallet information and identification only within the list of qualified jurisdictions;
- completing specified KYC procedures, which include providing any additional information requested and other KYC data as in clause 8.4, where appropriate
To access the Interface, you shall use a non-custodial Third-party Wallet software that allows you to interact with public blockchains. Their applicable terms of service also govern your relationship with that non-custodial Third-party Wallet provider. We do not have custody or control over the contents of your wallet and cannot retrieve or transfer them. By connecting your wallet to our Interface, you agree to be bound by this Agreement and all of the terms incorporated herein by reference.
2.4
Evolve is developed and initially runs on Evolve Blockchain as its core network, and is deployed on several other blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Jovay and Solana, by parties other than Evolve. Deployments on other networks typically use internal cross-chain bridges to transfer assets native to one blockchain to another. Please note that Digital Assets that have been "bridged" or "wrapped" to operate on other blockchain networks (including Jovay, our L2 solutions) are distinct from the original Ethereum mainnet asset.
2.5
Evolve does not encompass and is not (a) a cryptocurrency exchange; (b) a cryptocurrency broker; (c) a liquidity provider for any blockchain protocol liquidity pools; or (d) a custodian of credentials necessary to access Digital Assets.
2.6
Users understand and accept that the Interface may still require substantial development work. Due to unforeseeable material, conceptual, technical and commercial changes at any time, User understands and accepts that an upgrade of the Interface Platform by Evolve may be required from time to time and that, if User decides not to participate in such upgrade, User may no longer use the Interface.
2.7
Failure to follow the instructions on the Website may limit, delay, or prevent a User from accessing the Interface.
2.8
Evolve reserves the right to an emergency stop functionality to stop access to the Interface. Use of this functionality shall remain at the discretion of Evolve and shall only be used in limited situations, such as, but not limited to:
- serious security issue detected;
- serious network performance issue, depriving all users of equal treatment; and
- any material attack on the Interface, the Interface Platform, Website, Jovay, Ethereum or other networks.
2.9
In the event of any conflict, inconsistency, or discrepancy between the behaviour or state of any smart contract, protocol, or on-chain mechanism and these Terms, these Terms shall prevail and govern. Any smart contract or on-chain code referenced or used in connection with Evolve is provided solely as an execution and recording mechanism. It does not, by itself, create, modify, or supersede the legal rights, obligations, priorities, or remedies set out in these Terms. Suppose code executes in a manner inconsistent with these Terms (including due to bugs, exploits, Forks, or oracle errors). In that case, the parties' legal rights and obligations shall be determined exclusively by these Terms. Evolve may take reasonable corrective actions (including pause, reversal, or adjustment where legally permissible and technically feasible) to align on-chain records with these Terms.
2.10
We may make certain products, including access to our data, accessible or usable through interfaces, products or services provided by certain third-party partners, such as exchanges and trading platforms. You agree that your use of the products through an interface, product or service provided by one of our third-party partners is nonetheless still subject to these Terms.
3. ELIGIBILITY

- you have read and understood these Terms completely;
- you must not, directly or indirectly, in connection with your use of the Interface engage in any prohibited activities as outlined in these Terms.
3.3
Prior to using the Interface, you may be prompted to provide information relating to your Third-party Wallet. If you do not have a Third-party Wallet, you will need to purchase a cold storage Third-party Wallet or set up an account with a Third-party Wallet provider of your choice. Your use of the Third-party Wallet will be subject to the terms of use agreement between you and such Third-party Wallet provider.
3.4
In the event you do not have a Third-party Wallet or set up a Third-party Wallet or account with a cryptocurrency provider, you will not be able to satisfy the KYC requirements.
4. RISKS
4.1
You understand that Digital Assets, Evolve, blockchain technology, Avalanche, Evolve Blockchain, Ethereum, Ether, ETH, Jovay and other associated and related technologies are new and untested and outside of Evolve's exclusive control and adverse changes in market forces or the technology, broadly construed, will excuse Evolve's performance under these Terms.

Evolve does not control, endorse or adopt any Third-party Content and makes no representation or warranties of any kind regarding the Third-party Content, including without limitation regarding its accuracy or completeness. You acknowledge and agree that Evolve is not responsible or liable in any manner for any Third-party Content and undertakes no responsibility to update or review any Third-party Content. Users use such Third-party Content contained therein at their own risk.
13.4
Evolve may provide or allow users to provide information about or links to third-party products or services on the Website, like verifying identification on SumSub. Your business dealings or correspondence with, or participation in promotions of, such third parties, and any terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings or promotions, are solely between you and such third party. Evolve is not responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings or promotions or as the result of the presence of such third-party advertisers or third-party information on the Website.
13.5
Some relevant blockchain systems and smart contracts are public software utilities that are accessible directly through any compatible third-party node or indirectly through any compatible Third-party Wallet application that interacts with such a node ("Middleware"). Interacting with the Middleware does not require using the Interface. Still, the Interface is a convenient, user-friendly option for reading and displaying data from the Middleware and for generating standard draft transaction messages compatible with the Middleware. The User may choose to interact with the Middleware using software other than the Interface. As the Interface does not provide wallet software applications or nodes for blockchain systems, such software constitutes an essential third-party software and user dependency without which the Middleware cannot be used, and Digital Assets cannot be traded or used. Furthermore, the Interface may use APIs and servers from the Interface or third parties, and there are no guarantees regarding the continued operation, maintenance, availability, or security of any of the foregoing dependencies.
13.6
The Interface does not receive service fees on behalf of the Middleware and has no ability to reverse or refund any amounts paid to the Middleware in error.
14. USER CONTENT AND INTERFACE INTERACTIVE AREAS
14.1
The Website and Interface may include interactive areas or services ("Interactive Areas"), online hosting or storage services, or other areas or services in which you or other users create, post or store any content, messages, materials, data, information, text, music, sound, photos, video, graphics, applications, code or other items or materials on the Website ("User Content"). You are solely responsible for your use of such Interactive Areas and use them at your own risk. By using any Interactive Areas, you agree not to upload to, post, transmit, store, distribute, create or otherwise publish through the Website any of the following:
- (a) User Content that would constitute, encourage or provide instructions for a criminal offense, violate the rights of any party, or that would otherwise create liability or violate any local, state, national or international law, including, without limitation, the regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange, Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission or any rules of a securities exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange Hong Kong Stock Exchanges and Clearing Limited, the American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ.
- (b) User Content that is unlawful, libellous, defamatory, pornographic, obscene, lewd, indecent, suggestive, harassing, threatening, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, fraudulent, inflammatory, or otherwise objectionable;
- (c) User Content that impersonates any person or entity or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity;
- (d) User Content that may infringe any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other intellectual or proprietary right of any party. By posting any User Content, you represent and warrant that you have the lawful right to distribute and reproduce such User Content;
- (e) Unsolicited promotions, political campaigning, advertising or solicitations;
- (f) Viruses, corrupted data or other harmful, disruptive or destructive files;
- (g) Private information of any third party, including, without limitation, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, social security numbers and credit card numbers; and
- (h) User Content that, in the sole judgment of Evolve, is objectionable or which restricts or inhibits any other person from using or enjoying the Interactive Areas or the Website, or which may expose Evolve or its users to any harm or liability of any type.
14.2
You further agree that you are solely responsible for your conduct while on the Website, and you agree that you will not do any of the following in connection with the Website or Users:
- (a) Impersonate or post on behalf of any person or entity or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with a person or entity;
- (b) Use the Website or the Interface in any manner that could interfere with, disrupt, negatively affect or inhibit other users from fully enjoying the Website or that could damage, disable, overburden or impair the functioning of the Website in any manner;
- (c) Stalk, intimidate, threaten, or otherwise harass or cause discomfort to other Users;
- (d) Cheat or utilise unauthorised exploits in connection with the Interface;
- (e) Send any unsolicited commercial messages;
- (f) Use the Website or the Interface for any illegal or unauthorised purpose or engage in, encourage, or promote any illegal activity, or any activity that violates these Terms; or
- (g) Circumvent or attempt to circumvent any filtering, security measures or other features Evolve may from time to time adopt to protect the Website, its Users or third parties.
14.3
Evolve takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any User Content posted, stored or uploaded by you or any third party, or for any loss or damage thereto, nor is Evolve liable for any mistakes, defamation, slander, libel, omissions, falsehoods, obscenity, pornography or profanity you may encounter. Your use of Interactive Areas is at your own risk. Enforcement of the user content or conduct rules set forth in the Terms is solely at Evolve's discretion, and failure to enforce such rules in some instances does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce such rules in other instances. In addition, these rules do not create any private right of action on the part of any third party or any reasonable expectation that the Website will not contain any content prohibited by these rules. As a provider of interactive services, Evolve is not liable for any statements, representations or User Content provided by its users in any public forum, personal home page or other Interactive Area. Although Evolve has no obligation to screen, edit or monitor any of the Content posted in any Interactive Area, Evolve reserves the right, and has absolute discretion, to remove, screen or edit any User Content posted or stored on the Website and Interface at any time and for any reason without notice. You are solely responsible for creating backup copies of and replacing any User Content you post or store on the Website at your sole cost and expense. Any use of the Interactive Areas or other portions of the Sites in violation of the foregoing violates these Terms and may result in, among other things, termination or suspension of your rights to use the Interactive Areas, Website and the Interface.
15. FEEDBACK
You acknowledge and agree that any questions, comments, suggestions, feedback, ideas, plans, notes, drawings, original or creative materials or other information or materials regarding the Website, Interface or Evolve's general products or services (the "Feedback") that you provide in the form of email or other submissions to info@evolverwa.io, or any postings on the Website, are (as between you and Evolve) non-confidential and shall become the sole property of Evolve. Evolve shall own, and you hereby assign to Evolve, all exclusive rights, including all intellectual property rights, and shall be entitled to the unrestricted use and dissemination of such Feedback for any purpose, commercial or otherwise, without acknowledgement or compensation to you.
16. TERMINATION
Notwithstanding any of these Terms, Evolve reserves the right, without notice and in its sole discretion, to terminate your license to use the Website or Interface, and to block or prevent your future access to and use of the Website or Interface.
17. SEVERABILITY
If any provision of these Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
18. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
18.1
Any disputes or claims arising from your use of the Interface and Website, including disputes or claims that occurred prior to the effective date of the Terms (each a "Dispute") must be communicated through email sent to info@evolverwa.io to be resolved via a good-faith negotiation process. If that Dispute is not resolved within 60 days of sending such an email, then you agree that all unresolved disputes or claims shall be finally and exclusively settled by arbitration administered by the BVI International Arbitration Centre (BVI IAC) in accordance with its rules in force at the time of the filing of the notice of arbitration of such dispute. The arbitration shall be held before a single arbitrator and conducted in English on a confidential basis. Any award made by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary. This section shall survive termination of these Terms, the Interface, or any connection you may have to the information you obtained from the Interface.
18.2
Any award made by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary. This section shall survive termination of these Terms, the Interface, or any connection you may have to the information you obtained from the Interface.
18.3
This binding agreement to arbitrate applies to all Disputes.
18.4
Any Dispute must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and Interface will not have the right to assert the claim.
18.5
You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted these Terms, including the arbitration agreement, by emailing us at info@evolverwa.io. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of the binding arbitration agreement.
19. FORCE MAJEURE
Evolve shall not be liable for any delay, failure, or omission in performing any obligation, nor for any loss or damage arising therefrom, to the extent caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation acts of God; flood, storm, fire, earthquake, epidemic or pandemic; war, terrorism, civil unrest, or sabotage; labour disputes or strikes (other than those involving Evolve's own workforce to the extent within Evolve's reasonable control); failures or outages of power, telecommunications, internet service providers, cloud or data centres; blockchain network congestion, Forks, validator censorship, smart contract or oracle failures not caused by Evolve's wilful misconduct, or material degradation of underlying protocols; bank or payment-system disruptions, correspondent banking issues, capital controls, currency inconvertibility, FX unavailability, or sanctions and regulatory actions; governmental orders, changes in law or regulation, permit delays or denials; and failures or delays of third-party service providers on whom Evolve reasonably relies. Performance shall be suspended for the duration and scope of the Force Majeure Event and resume as soon as reasonably practicable; timelines and milestones shall be extended accordingly. Evolve shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and notify you of the Force Majeure Event within a reasonable time, provided that failure to notify shall not affect the application of this clause except to the extent you are materially prejudiced. If a Force Majeure Event continues for more than 60 consecutive days and materially impairs performance, Evolve may implement reasonable adjustments (including suspension, migration, or early redemption at fair value where applicable) or terminate the affected obligations on 10 days' notice, without liability. Nothing herein excuses payment obligations already due and payable, except to the extent payment rails are unavailable as a direct result of the Force Majeure Event.
20. GOVERNING LAW
You agree that the laws of the British Virgin Islands, without regard to the principles of conflict of laws, govern these Terms.
21. MISCELLANEOUS

We do not permit individuals under the age of 18 to register with our Website and use our products. If we become aware that a child under 18 has provided us with personal information, we will delete such information from our files immediately and block access to our Website and products.
21.3
We and you are independent contractors, and neither party, nor any of their respective affiliates, is an agent of the other for any purpose or has the authority to bind the other. Both parties reserve the right:
- (a) to develop or have developed for it products, services, concepts, systems, or techniques that are similar to or compete with the products, services, concepts, systems, or techniques developed or contemplated by the other party; and
- (b) to assist third-party developers or systems integrators who may offer products or services which compete with the other party's products or services.
21.4
These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights in any individual or entity.
21.5
You will not assign these Terms, or delegate or sublicense any of your rights under these Terms, without our prior written consent. Any assignment or transfer contrary to these Terms will be void. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
21.6
The failure or omission by us to enforce any provision of these Terms will not constitute a present or future waiver of such provision nor limit our right to enforce such provision at a later time. All waivers by us must be unequivocal and in writing to be effective.
21.7
Except as otherwise set forth herein, if any portion of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. Any invalid or unenforceable portions will be interpreted to affect the intent of the original portion. If such construction is not possible, the invalid or unenforceable portion will be severed from these Terms, but the rest of the Terms will remain in full force and effect.
21.8
Prior to filing any claims in accordance with paragraph 18.4, you undertake to file such a claim or request directly to Evolve via e-mail at info@evolverwa.io.

Any claim filed with the arbitral tribunal contrary to the rules set out in this clause 21.8 shall be rejected immediately by the tribunal as premature.
21.9
These Terms are not boilerplate. If you disagree with any of them, believe that any should not apply to you, or wish to negotiate these Terms, please contact info@evolverwa.io via e-mail and immediately navigate away from the Website and cease using the Platform Interface.
