- Each Joint Accountholder acknowledges that each other Joint Accountholder may be provided Account information including transaction history, login information, and personal information of other Joint Accountholders. Each Joint Accountholder has authority to make trading, transfer, withdrawal, or deposit decisions, in relation to the Joint Account and the Crypto Asset and cash balances contained therein, independent of each other Joint Accountholder. Each Joint Accountholder agrees to indemnify ecoToken and hold it harmless together with its officers, directors, employees, affiliates and assigns for any trading loss, withdrawal or other action that results in a financial loss when one Joint Accountholder acts independent of another Joint Accountholder.
- All Crypto Asset and fiat balances in an Account are the joint property of all Joint Accountholders, who each have a "right of survivorship". As such, each Joint Accountholder agrees to assign such Account balances (both Crypto Asset and cash) to the other Joint Accountholder (or to the others jointly if there are more than two Joint Accountholders) in the event of a death. After a Joint Accountholder’s death, ecoToken will only have continuing obligations with respect to the Account to the surviving accountholder(s). If one Joint Accountholder is declared mentally incompetent, the legally appointed representative of the mentally incompetent Joint Accountholder has the same right of access, and authorization, to the Joint Account as did the mentally incompetent Joint Accountholder.
- For each Joint Account, each Joint Accountholder will be able to access the Platform, using shared User login information, either through an Internet browser or through any ecoToken Companion App on a mobile device. Each Joint Accountholder will receive the same information about the Joint Account. Each Joint Accountholder authorizes ecoToken to communicate with any one Joint Accountholder regarding matters associated with the Joint Account. Any notices or statements will be effective and binding on all Joint Accountholders when they are provided to any one Joint Accountholder via electronic means to any one of the Joint Accountholders at the email address on file for the Account.
- To make account ownership change(s) on a Joint Account, or to remove a Joint Accountholder you must contact ecoToken customer service directly. It may take up to five (5) business days for the account ownership changes to take effect in the Account settings or the ecoToken Companion App. This means that a Joint Accountholder may be able to view the Account, execute trades through the Account, request withdrawals, and initiate deposits from the Account, until the corresponding change is made in the Account.
Section 9. Deposit or Transfer Errors and Account Freeze or Closure
- You agree that ecoToken may adjust your Account balance for any deposit, transfer or encoding error of either Crypto Assets or cash, even if you have already withdrawn all of part of the balance error; though ecoToken reserves the right not to do so.
ecoToken may adjust the Account transaction record, and / or Account balance to correct amounts that we believe were credited to your Account by mistake or that we suspect could be the result of illegal, fraudulent, unauthorized, or improper activity. You agree to waive presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, and notice of protest on all Crypto Asset or cash balances made in error and requiring such action. - If you receive Crypto Assets or cash to your Account in error, you are liable to return the amount received in error. ecoToken may apply a credit (positive) balance of cash, or Crypto Assets, in any of your Accounts (whether individual or Joint Accounts) against any debt or liability either of which you may owe to ecoToken, including debts or liability pursuant to deposit, transfer or coding errors where you have withdrawn any amount of Crypto Asset or cash that was credited to your account in error.
- ecoToken is not responsible for any loss of Crypto Assets resulting from the transfer of a Crypto Asset to ecoToken via an underlying network that ecoToken does not support. The User must verify that the transaction network selected for any movement of Crypto Assets is compatible with ecoToken’s receiving wallet.
ecoToken’s wallet receives a Crypto Asset via that Crypto Asset’s native blockchain network, only (Solana). - ecoToken may exercise its rights pursuant to clause 9.B in any manner it considers necessary, which may include selling Crypto Assets to settle a cash or Crypto Asset debt, without first giving notice and regardless of whether the Accounts are individual or Joint Accounts. This right operates despite any demands that may have been made by a third party. This right is in addition to any set-off or consolidation rights which ecoToken may have at law or in equity.
- ecoToken may freeze or close your Account without notice if required by law, if at any time ecoToken has reasonable grounds to believe that you did or may commit fraud or any illegal activity, if you are a victim of fraud or identity theft in order to prevent future losses, if you use the Account for any unlawful or improper purpose, or in a way that will cause harm or a loss to ecoToken, if you operate the Account in a manner unsatisfactory to ecoToken or contrary to this Agreement, or if you violate the terms of any ecoToken policy that relates to the Account.
Section 10. Marketplace
- ecoToken facilitates a marketplace for the User to buy, sell, and trade ecoToken Crypto Assets, including but not limited to: ecoTokens (eco), ecoWarrior NFTs as well as other proprietary tokens and NFTs.
- Securities, investment contracts, or any other form of financial instruments classified by law as a “Security” are not traded on the ecoToken platform. Therefore, any Crypto Assets available for purchase through the ecoToken trading platform will not grant any rights, remedies, or other protections associated with ownership of securities.
- ecoToken makes every effort to maintain a fair marketplace, and to ensure that listed Crypto Assets trade with minimal disruptions at fair market value; however, ecoToken cannot be held accountable for any form of “market manipulation” whether it occurs within the ecoToken marketplace, or the general Crypto Asset marketplace. The User agrees with the following:
- More so than other securities and commodities, Crypto Asset prices are often unpredictable and volatile due to a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to government interference, market conditions, and the operations of other Crypto Asset trading platforms, speculation, and media coverage.
- ecoToken shall have no liability for fluctuations in the market value of listed Crypto Assets or for User transactions that deviate from fair market value.
- The liquidity, trading volume, market dynamics, and market depth of any listed Crypto Asset can change rapidly and without notice. ecoToken does not guarantee liquidity, a price minimum for Crypto Assets, or that a continuous two-sided market will be made or guaranteed for any listed Crypto Asset.
- The price of Crypto Assets traded on the ecoToken platform result directly from buy and sell orders placed by the User and other ecoToken Users on the ecoToken platform. These prices are not set nor are the prices controlled by ecoToken.
- The User is solely responsible for any trading decisions made. ecoToken only provides information surrounding the types of Crypto Assets available for trading on the ecoToken platform. ecoToken provides no advice relating to buy or sell orders, assumes no responsibility for any action that is taken in the course of using the Website, mobile apps, and API, or any actions taken outside of ecoToken.
- In order to maintain a fair market place and to avoid situations of “market manipulation”, in the event of any verifiable disruption or malfunction in the use or operation of any electronic communications and trading facilities of the ecoToken platform, in which the nullification or modification of transactions may be necessary for the maintenance of a fair and orderly market or the protection of investors and the public interest exist, a qualified representative of ecoToken, on his or her own motion and reasonable discretion, may review such transactions and declare such transactions arising out of the use or operation of such facilities during such period null and void or modify the terms of these transactions, in accordance with the maintenance of a fair and orderly market place. The qualified ecoToken representative, absent extraordinary circumstances, must initiate action upon knowledge of the occurrence of an event of any verifiable disruption or malfunction in the use or operation of any electronic communications and trading facilities of the ecoToken platform. Each User involved in the transaction shall be notified as soon as practicable by ecoToken.
- For greater certainty, the User expressly agrees, that in order to maintain a fair market place and to avoid situations of “market manipulation”, ecoToken may nullify, reverse, bust, or cancel a transaction or adjust the execution price of a transaction if a deliberate attempt at “market manipulation” is identified or if there is an event of a verifiable disruption or malfunction in the use or operation of any electronic communications and trading facilities of the ecoToken platform.
Section 11. Payment and Fees
- In order to trade via the Services, you must first transfer Fiat Funds or Solana (sol) into your Account using one of the payment methods available on the Website, such as e-transfer, bank draft, or wire transfer. ecoToken does not accept cash transactions. You may be charged fees when transferring Fiat Funds to your Account depending on the method used. ecoToken is not responsible for these fees. ecoToken makes no guarantee regarding the time it may take to transfer Fiat Funds into your Account.
- All Fiat Funds held in your ecoToken Account are kept in a segregated bank account separate from ecoToken’s operating capital. Any proceeds from the sale (less any transaction fees) of Crypto Assets are credited to a User’s Fiat Fund account. There will be no interest paid on any Fiat Fund balances kept in the User’s Fiat Fund account on ecoToken.
- Provided that a User holds a sufficient balance in your Account, you may request to withdrawal Fiat Funds or Crypto Asset from your Account. ecoToken will, upon your request, withdraw Fiat Funds or Crypto Asset from your Account, less any fees charged in accordance with the Fee Structure. ecoToken reserves the right to process and send, whether initiated by you or not, a withdrawal, whether in Fiat Funds or Crypto Asset, at any time. ecoToken will not process orders for withdrawal of Fiat Funds or Crypto Asset to the account of a third-party that is not the account of the authorized User.
- The User expressly agrees, acknowledges, and understands ecoToken’s fee structure regarding trading, deposits, and withdrawals and the User acknowledges that this is subject to change at any time, and from time to time, at the sole discretion of ecoToken.
Section 12. Crypto Asset Ownership and Custody Safeguards
- ecoToken Users can purchase, sell, transfer in, withdraw, and hold any of the Crypto Assets listed on the ecoToken trading platform.
- The User obtains a full right to the Crypto Asset of choice upon completion of purchase and such transaction shall be fully reflected in the User’s Account immediately. Custody and legal title of the Crypto Asset will be held by ecoToken, and beneficial ownership shall reside with the User.
-
Title to the Crypto Asset shall be reflected by the last known record of the transaction on the blockchain. Should a User deposit Crypto Assets to the ecoToken wallet, custody, and legal title shall pass to ecoToken, and beneficial ownership and control shall always reside with the User.
Should the User wish to withdraw any Crypto Asset held in their ecoToken Account, they shall request a withdrawal. ecoToken will process such withdrawal within a 24-hour period subject to internal controls. Should there be an issue with such withdrawal request, ecoToken shall promptly notify the User. Once the Crypto Asset has been withdrawn from the ecoToken wallet and has had one confirmation on the blockchain, legal title shall pass from ecoToken to the owner of the wallet who receives said withdrawal and is final and irreversible.
For clarity, the User’s custody and ownership rights are created solely by contract under this User Agreement and the relationship between ecoToken and the User shall not be that of fiduciary.
If the Crypto Asset withdrawal address provided by the User is incorrect, ecoToken takes no responsibility with regards to the error or omission of such User. In such case the User expressly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless ecoToken, its officers, directors, employees, Affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees, successors, and assigns for losses incurred due to an error or omission of such User. -
ecoToken utilizes state of the art security systems for custody solutions, numerous internal controls, systems, and safeguards to ensure User Crypto Asset is safe and securely custodied, and protected against cybersecurity, fraud, or related custody risk.
Such measures include, but are not limited to risk management technology and tools, order management systems, internal controls and systems, extensive background checks, hiring and screening processes and procedures, limiting access to information to only key individuals, segregated bank accounts held in trust at regulated banking institutions for User fiat balances, third party technology solution providers for wallet infrastructure and custody services, including cold, hot and warm storage solutions, geographically separated secure deposit of private keys, tamper-proof private key management systems, multi-party computation, and multi-signature technology, safeguards against single point of failure risk, and the use of external legal counsel for holding keys and codes under trust conditions.
While ecoToken works diligently to ensure all custody related risks are mitigated it cannot guarantee a disruption free trading platform. Disruptions to platform operations could result in investor loss or delays when executing transactions or withdrawing Crypto Assets.
While ecoToken maintains full custody of User Crypto Assets, User data and trading information may be turned over to governmental authorities in the event of a User account closure or suspension arising from fraud, or other accusation or investigation into a legal violation, or a violation of these term. - ecoToken’s Services and marketplace are a way to buy and sell Crypto Assets, but are not intended to be a long-term custodial solution for your Crypto Assets. ecoToken’s Services provide convenient functionality for you to initiate a blockchain-registered transaction in order to move your Crypto Assets into personal custody. You agree to use this functionality promptly for the Crypto Assets you do not intend to buy or sell.
Section 13. Order Execution
- All orders (excluding over-the-counter (OTC) orders) are placed by Users directly on the ecoToken online platform. Every order placed on the ecoToken online platform will be executed on a best execution basis, obtaining the best possible execution based on the current market conditions.
- All buy and sell orders are deemed to be final and not reversible. ecoToken accepts no liability or responsibility for any incorrect order entered by Users.
- ecoToken reserves the right to unilaterally cancel a Crypto Asset trade that deviates ten (10) percent or more from the Crypto Asset’s fair market vale (as determined at the sole discretion of ecoToken). ecoToken also reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to establish trading price collars that set limits on executed trades for Crypto Asset price movements outside of predefined spreads. Any trades by Users outside of established price collars, or predefined spreads, will be rejected and not executed.
- ecoToken reserves the right to establish limitations on the maximum number of decimals for any listed Crypto Asset including volume and price of trade orders. Further, maximum decimals may be uniquely established for each respective Crypto Asset at ecoToken’s sole discretion. A User attempting to execute a trade in contravention of the maximum allowable decimal will have its trade truncated (rounded down) to the maximum decimal allowed. Attempted trades in contravention of the maximum decimal amount will result in an error and the order will not be created or executed.
Section 14. No Obligation to Support the Blockchain
- ecoToken does not run or control the Solana blockchain networks that verifies the assets sold by ecoToken. There are a number of aspects of Crypto Assets that can pose risks to a User that are beyond ecoToken’s control. We encourage you to carefully read this agreement, the ecoToken Website, and learn about Crypto Assets before beginning to buy or sell through the ecoToken marketplace.
- ecoToken does not own or control, and make no representations or warranties with respect to, the underlying technology of the Crypto Assets you may purchase or sell using the Services, including those technologies that govern their use. The underlying technology of Crypto Assets may suddenly change such that the new version is no longer compatible with existing versions, or there is otherwise a permanent divergence of the blockchain (a “Fork”), which may impact the value, functionality, and other characteristics such as the name of the Crypto Asset and whether the Services are able to support the Crypto Asset subject to a Fork. We are not responsible for any consequences arising from a Fork, including any losses you may suffer; and, in the event of a Fork, we may temporarily or permanently suspend the operation of the Services (with or without advance notice to you) and, in our sole discretion, decide whether or not to continue supporting trading of the Crypto Asset subject to the Fork.
