Description of the Platform

Description of the Platform

Description of the Platform

The Platform is a non-custodial, peer-to-peer platform that allows users to automate certain transactions and access various Apps and data by utilizing Sanko's algorithms, smart contracts and customizing parameters. While Sanko has admin control and is the creator of the Platform, Sanko does not and cannot take custody of digital assets which you trade or send utilizing the tools available on the Platform.

In order to use certain features of the Platform, you must connect an Ethereum network address to the Platform utilizing browser-based wallet software ("Wallet"). You represent and warrant you are the exclusive owner and controller of the network address generated by the Wallet. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any financial information related to your network address and Wallet.

You may sign out of the Platform by disconnecting your Wallet at any time, for any reason. You can do this by going onto the App, clicking "Connect to a wallet" and "Disconnect".

1.1 Sanko Bridge and Interface

a. Using the Sanko Bridge App, you may transfer, or "bridge", a token to another network or protocol ("Bridged Network"), and vice versa using the Sanko Bridge interface ("Bridge Interface"). The Bridge Interface is a graphical user interface allowing users to interact with certain bridge smart contracts, but the Bridge Interface is not required to interact with those underlying smart contracts comprising the bridge (the "Bridge") or the Bridged Network.

b. Bridging is performed through the utilization of smart contract applications provided by a third party, Arbitrum. These smart contracts constitute the Bridge, and they work by allowing a user to deposit tokens on a certain network and receive on the Bridged Network a version of the same token that is native to the Bridged Network, and vice-versa.

c. The Bridge may not be the exclusive means of accessing the Bridged Network, as there may be alternative bridges relying on different smart contracts and interfaces deployed by third parties which support the bridging of similar digital assets. While use of the Bridge Interface would result in access to the Bridge, the Bridge may also be accessed directly using these other third-party interfaces or even through command line instructions.

1.2 Sanko Tools

Sanko Tools is a block explorer for the various Apps, smart contracts and digital assets within the Sanko ecosystem.

1.3 Sanko Swap

Sanko Swap is a front-end user interface that provides access to smart contracts and liquidity pools comprising the third party decentralized exchange, Camelot ("Camelot"). The Sanko Swap interface is not required to interact with Camelot. Sanko Swap may not be the exclusive means of accessing Camelot, as there may be alternative interfaces deployed by third parties which support the access to Camelot. While use of Sanko Swap would result in access to Camelot, Camelot may also be accessed directly using these other third-party interfaces or even through command line instructions.

1.4 Sanko Pets

Sanko Pets is an application for hatching, raising and swapping digital pets on Sanko.

11. Assumption of Risks

11. Assumption of Risks

11. Assumption of Risks

11.1 By accessing or using the Platform in any way, you represent and warrant that you understand:

• that bridging is an extremely novel technical area and is subject to material risks which may lead to total loss of user assets. All bridges, including the Sanko Bridge, involve the use of smart contracts that are subject to many known and unknown risks, including smart contract exploits of the actual smart contract code to produce outcomes different than those the Sanko Bridge was designed to achieve, and cyberattacks intended to gain unauthorized control of the smart contracts or associated systems.
• that you accept all risks associated with using the Bridge Interface and Sanko Swap ("Sanko Interfaces"). All interfaces, including the Sanko Interfaces, are subject to many known and unknown risks. You are not required to use the Sanko Interfaces, nor are we advising you in any way to use them. Each interface is subject to many risks, including the interface domain becoming compromised, and you interact with interfaces, including the Sanko Interfaces, at your own risk.
• that Sanko will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using the Platform, however caused. Sanko takes no responsibility for and will not be liable for any losses, damages or claims arising from the use of our Platform including, but not limited to, any losses, damages or claims arising from:
  • passwords being "Bruteforced",
  • server failure or data loss,
  • forgotten passwords,
  • corrupted wallet files,
  • incorrectly constructed transactions or mistyped Ethereum addresses; or
  • unauthorized access to mobile applications,
  • "phishing," viruses, third-party attacks or any other unauthorized third-party activities.
• the inherent risks associated with cryptographic systems and blockchain-based networks; digital assets, including the usage and intricacies of native digital assets, like ETH; smart contract-based tokens, such as those that follow the Ethereum Token Standard; and systems that interact with blockchain-based networks. Sanko does not own or control any of the underlying software through which blockchain networks are formed. In general, the software underlying blockchain networks, including the Ethereum blockchain, is open source, such that anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute it.
• (i) that Sanko is not responsible for the operation of the software and networks underlying the Platform, (ii) that there exists no guarantee of the functionality, security, or availability of that software and networks, and (iii) that the underlying networks are subject to sudden changes in operating rules, such as those commonly referred to as "forks," which may materially affect the Platform.
• that blockchain networks use public/private key cryptography. You alone are responsible for securing your private key(s). We do not have access to your private key(s). Losing control of your private key(s) will permanently and irreversibly deny you access to digital assets on the Ethereum blockchain or other blockchain-based network. Neither Sanko nor any other person or entity will be able to retrieve or protect your digital assets. If your private key(s) are lost, then you will not be able to transfer your digital assets to any other blockchain address or wallet. If this occurs, then you will not be able to realize any value or utility from the digital assets that you may hold.
• the Platform and your digital assets could be impacted by one or more regulatory inquiries or regulatory actions, which could impede or limit the ability of Sanko to continue to make available any portion(s) of the Platform which rely on any Sanko proprietary software and, thus, could impede or limit your ability to access or use the Platform.
• that cryptography is a progressing field with advances in code cracking or other technical advancements, such as the development of quantum computers, which may present risks to digital assets and the Platform, and could result in the theft or loss of your digital assets. To the extent possible, we intend to update the smart contracts related to the Platform to account for any advances in cryptography and to incorporate additional security measures necessary to address risks presented from technological advancements. We may also freeze the platform in the event of a critical security problem, but this does not guarantee or otherwise ensure full security of the Platform.
• that the Ethereum blockchain remains under development, which creates technological and security risks when using the Platform in addition to uncertainty relating to digital assets and transactions therein. You acknowledge that the cost of transacting on the Ethereum blockchain is variable and may increase at any time causing impact to any activities taking place on the Ethereum blockchain, which may result in price fluctuations or increased costs when using the Platform.
• that the Platform is subject to flaws and that you are solely responsible for evaluating any code provided by the Platform. This warning and others Sanko provides in these Terms is in no way evidence of, and nor does it represent an on-going duty to alert you to all of the potential risks of using or accessing the Platform.
• that although we intend to provide accurate and timely information on the Platform, the Platform and other information available when using the Platform may not always be entirely accurate, complete, or current and may also include technical inaccuracies or typographical errors. To continue to provide you with as complete and accurate information as possible, information may be changed or updated from time to time without notice, including, without limitation, information regarding our policies. Accordingly, you should verify all information before relying on it, and all decisions based on information contained on the Platform are your sole responsibility. No representation is made as to the accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness for any particular purpose of any pricing information distributed via the Platform. Prices and pricing information may be higher or lower than prices available on platforms providing similar services.
• that any use or interaction with the Platform requires a comprehensive understanding of applied cryptography and computer science to appreciate the inherent risks, including those listed above. You represent and warrant that you possess relevant knowledge and skills. Any reference to a type of digital asset on the Platform does not indicate our approval or disapproval of the technology on which the digital asset relies, and should not be used as a substitute for your understanding of the risks specific to each type of digital asset.
• that transactions entered into in connection with the Platform are irreversible, final and there are no refunds. You acknowledge and agree that you will access and use the Platform at your own risk. The risk of loss in trading digital assets can be substantial. You should, therefore, carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances and financial resources.
• that you have been, are, and will be solely responsible for making your independent appraisal and investigations into the risks of a given transaction and the underlying digital assets. You represent that you have sufficient knowledge, market sophistication, professional advice, and experience to make your evaluation of the merits and risks of any transaction conducted in connection with the Platform or any digital asset. You accept all consequences of using the Platform, including the risk that you may lose access to your digital assets indefinitely. All transaction decisions are made solely by you. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms, we accept no responsibility whatsoever for, and will in no circumstances be liable to you in connection with, your use of the Platform for performing digital asset transactions.
• That we must comply with Applicable Law, which may require us to, upon request by government agencies, take certain actions or provide information, which may not be in your best interests.

11.2 You hereby acknowledge and agree that Sanko will have no responsibility or liability for, the risks set forth in this Section 11. You hereby irrevocably waive, release and discharge all claims, whether known or unknown to you, against Sanko, its affiliates, and their respective shareholders, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, and representatives, suppliers, and contractors related to any of the risks set forth in this Section 11.

If you are obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party, Sanko (or, at its discretion, the applicable Indemnified Party) will have the right, in its sole discretion, to control any action or proceeding and to determine whether Sanko wishes to settle, and if so, on what terms, and you agree to corporate with Sanko in the defense.

14. Disclosures; Disclaimers

14. Disclosures; Disclaimers

14. Disclosures; Disclaimers

14.1 Sanko does not operate a digital asset or derivatives exchange platform or offer trade execution or clearing services and, therefore, has no oversight, involvement, or control concerning your transactions using the Platform. All transactions between users of open-source software initially developed by Sanko are executed peer-to-peer directly between the users' Ethereum addresses through a smart contract. You are responsible for complying with all Applicable Laws that govern your use of the Platform, including, but not limited to, the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC"), the federal securities laws and the regulations promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and all foreign Applicable Laws.

14.2 Digital assets currently face an uncertain regulatory landscape in the United States and many foreign jurisdictions. In the U.S., digital assets are subject to varying levels of federal regulatory oversight and may be regulated by one or more state regulatory bodies. In addition, many digital asset derivatives are regulated by the CFTC, and the SEC has cautioned that many initial coin offerings are likely to fall within the definition of a security and subject to U.S. securities laws. One or more jurisdictions may, in the future, adopt laws, regulations or directives that affect digital asset networks and their users. Such laws, regulations or directives may impact the price of digital assets and their acceptance by users, merchants and service providers.

14.3 You understand that Sanko is not registered or licensed by the CFTC, SEC, or any financial regulatory authority. No financial regulatory authority has reviewed or approved the use of the open-source software. The Platform and the open-source software initially developed by Sanko do not constitute advice or a recommendation concerning any commodity, security, or other digital asset or instrument. Sanko is not acting as an investment adviser or commodity trading adviser to any person or entity, nor is it registered with the SEC as either a broker-dealer or investment adviser.

14.4 Sanko does not own or control the underlying software protocols that are used in connection with the Platform. In general, the underlying protocols are open source and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them.

16. Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

16. Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Sanko and affects your rights. It contains procedures for mandatory binding arbitration and a class action waiver.

Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) between Sanko and any user that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and Sanko, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.

Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), an established alternative dispute resolution provider ("ADR Provider") that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules ("Arbitration Rules") governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that Sanko made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, Sanko will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.

Authority of Arbitrator

Authority of Arbitrator

Authority of Arbitrator

If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Sanko, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Sanko.

Waiver of Jury Trial

Waiver of Jury Trial

THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, INSTEAD ELECTING THAT ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES SHALL BE RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION UNDER THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE TYPICALLY MORE LIMITED, MORE EFFICIENT AND LESS COSTLY THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN A COURT AND ARE SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. IN THE EVENT ANY LITIGATION SHOULD ARISE BETWEEN YOU AND SANKO IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN A SUIT TO VACATE OR ENFORCE AN ARBITRATION AWARD OR OTHERWISE, YOU WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, INSTEAD ELECTING THAT THE DISPUTE BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE.

Any right or remedy of Sanko set forth in these Terms is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy whether described in these Terms, under Applicable Law, at law, or in equity. The failure or delay of Sanko in exercising any right, power, or privilege under these Terms shall not operate as a waiver thereof.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any of these Terms shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other of these Terms, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.

A waiver by Sanko of any right or remedy under these Terms shall only be effective if it is in writing, executed by a duly authorized representative of Sanko and shall apply only to the circumstances for which it is given. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or remedy, nor shall it prevent any future exercise or enforcement of such right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall preclude or restrict the further exercise of any such right or remedy or other rights or remedies.
