1. SMART CONTRACT ENABLED

Grimmies NFT is a non-fungible Ethereum-based token that uses smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain (“Smart Contracts”). The Ethereum blockchain provides an immutable ledger of all transactions that occur on the blockchain. This means that all Grimmies NFTs are outside of the control of any one party, including Webacy, and are subject to many risks and uncertainties. Webacy neither owns nor controls MetaMask, WalletConnect, the Ethereum network, your browser, or any other third party site, product, or service (including third party wallets or marketplaces) that you might access, visit, or use for the purpose of enabling you to use the Services or to purchase, list, auction, or sell Grimmies NFTs (“Transaction”), and that, except with respect to transferring control of a Grimmies NFT to the initial purchaser through the Services (“Initial Purchaser”), Webacy has no responsibility with respect to any Transaction. Webacy will not be liable for the acts or omissions of any third parties, nor will Webacy be liable for any damage that you may suffer as a result of your transactions or any other interaction with any third parties. You understand that your Ethereum public address will be made publicly visible whenever you engage in a Transaction. Aside from transferring control of the Grimmies NFT to the Initial Purchaser, Webacy has no control over the transfer, storage, ownership or maintenance of the Grimmies NFT.

2. CHANGES TO THE SERVICES

Webacy reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that Webacy will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services, including in relation to any Grimmies NFT.

3. GRIMMIES PERKS

A Collector (as defined below) of a Grimmies NFT may receive special perks, experience, or opportunities as determined by Webacy in its sole discretion (“Perks”) for a period of three (3) years after the Grimmies NFTs are first made available for sale (i.e., dropped) by Webacy. Webacy does not make any representation or guarantee that any Collector will receive any Perks or achieve any particular outcome as a result of owning any Grimmies NFT. Webacy reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to restrict, limit, or deny any Perks to any Collector, including to limit the period of time when a Perk is available, for any reason, at any time. Perks are not intended to be an endorsement of any project, creator, NFT, individual or any other thing, and Webacy makes no recommendation and provides no investment advice in connection with any Perks or otherwise as a result of holding or owning the Grimmies NFT.

4. MEMBER ACCOUNT, PASSWORD, AND SECURITY

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, if any, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify Webacy of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Services. Webacy will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section.

5. CONNECTING YOUR WALLET

In order to access and use the Services, including engaging in a Transaction on the Services, you must connect your account to your digital wallet supported on MetaMask, WalletConnect or other wallet extensions or gateways as allowed on the Services. Such digital wallets allow you to purchase, store, and engage in transactions using the native Ethereum cryptocurrency, ETH. When you link your cryptocurrency wallet, you understand and agree that you are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your wallet and your control over any wallet-related authentication credentials, private or public cryptocurrency keys, non-fungible tokens or cryptocurrencies that are stored in or are accessible through your wallet. Any unauthorized access to your cryptocurrency wallet by third parties could result in the loss or theft of Grimmies NFTs and/or funds held in your wallet and any associated wallets, including any linked financial information such as bank account(s) or credit card(s). Webacy is not responsible for managing and maintaining the security of your cryptocurrency wallet. Webacy has no responsibility or liability to you for any unauthorized access to or use of your cryptocurrency wallet or if you are unable to locate your credentials. If you notice any unauthorized or suspicious activity in your cryptocurrency wallet that seems to be related to the Services, please notify us immediately.

6. SALE OF GRIMMIES NFT

When each Grimmies NFT is sold for the first time, the agreement for sale is between Webacy and the Initial Purchaser. If the Initial Purchaser decides to sell a Grimmies NFT (“Secondary Sale”), then Webacy is not a party to any agreement between the applicable buyer, seller, or facilitator of the Secondary Sale.

If you or any owner of a Grimmies NFT (“Collector”) sells or transfers a Grimmies NFT to another collector, (a) the you, as Collector, represents and warrants that you will notify the subsequent collector of these Terms and require the subsequent collector to comply with these Terms, (b) the Collector License (as defined below) as set forth herein will automatically transfer to such subsequent collector, and such other collector will be deemed the “Collector” (for purposes of such Grimmies NFT and the Collector License to the underlying NFT IP (as defined below)) and will be subject to these Terms, and (c) you, as the seller or transferor of such Grimmies NFT, will cease to have any further rights to such Grimmies NFT or underlying NFT IP.

By placing an order on the Site or through the Services (including by bidding in an auction), you agree that you are submitting a binding offer to purchase a Grimmies NFT, you agree to pay all applicable fees associated with the Transaction, and you authorize Webacy to automatically charge and collect such fees from your payment instrument or wallet. If you are an Initial Purchaser, then all amounts due are to be paid to Webacy. If you are not the Initial Purchaser of a Grimmies NFT, then amounts may be paid to the seller of such Grimmies NFT.

You acknowledge and agree that Webacy receives 6.9% of every Secondary Sale of a Grimmies NFT (“Royalty”). Webacy has the right to collect Royalties for Grimmies NFT sales in perpetuity. As such, if you sell a Grimmies NFT on a third-party marketplace, you agree to include a statement substantially similar to the following in the description of the NFT: “6.9% Royalty Applies. See Grimmies NFT Terms of Use for details.”

7. TAXES

You are responsible for any and all sales, use, value-added and other taxes, duties, and assessments now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any governmental authority, associated with your use of the Services, Perks or Grimmies NFTs (including, without limitation, any taxes that may become payable as the result of your ownership, transfer, purchase, or sale of a Grimmies NFT).

8. WEBACY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

You acknowledge and agree that the Services may contain content or features (“Services Content”) that are protected by copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other proprietary rights and laws.

Nothing in these Terms or the Services should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any of Webacy Trademarks displayed on the Services, without Webacy's prior written permission in each instance. All goodwill generated from the use of Webacy Trademarks will inure to our exclusive benefit.

9. YOUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

You acknowledge and agree that Webacy (or, as applicable, its licensors) owns all legal rights, title and interest in all intellectual property rights of the content underlying Grimmies NFTs (“NFT IP”), including but not limited to copyrights and trademarks in the NFT IP. As the copyright owner, Webacy has the exclusive right to reproduce, prepare derivatives of, distribute, display, perform and otherwise exercise and exploit the NFT IP, subject to Collector Licenses.

Subject to continued compliance with these Terms, the usage of Grimmies NFT are subject to certain terms. Grimmies NFT grants unlimited use, copy, and display of your owned Grimmies NFT art for the purpose of creative derivative works based on the owned NFT. This includes for the purposes of: producing and selling merchandise (apparel, printed art, stickers) and usage in print (comics, graphic novels, posters). These terms are extended in good faith and owners are expected to exercise these privileges within good faith and without being harmful to the reputation and validity of the GrimmiesNFT and Webacy brands. Grimmies NFT and Webacy hold the right to revoke these privileges if they are found to be abused.

10. No Investment Advice; Investment Risks

The information on this Site and any information provided in connection with the Services or Perks are provided to Grimmies NFT owners only and for information only and do not constitute, and should not be construed as, investment advice or a recommendation to buy, sell, or otherwise transact in any digital asset including any products or services or an invitation, offer or solicitation to engage in any investment activity with respect to any digital asset.

The information on this Site and any information provided in connection with the Services or Perks provided to Grimmies NFT owners are provided solely on the basis that you will make your own investment and trading decisions, and Webacy does not take account of any person's investment objectives, particular needs, or financial situation. In addition, nothing on this Site or any information provided in connection with the Services or Perks provided to Grimmies NFT owners shall, or is intended to, constitute financial, legal, accounting or tax advice. It is strongly recommended that you seek professional investment advice before making any investment decision. Any investment decision that you make should be based on an assessment of your risks in consultation with your investment adviser.

The digital assets about which information is provided on the Site and any information provided in connection with the Services or Perks provided to Grimmies NFT owners are not viewed by the issuer or sponsor of any such digital assets, or those buying or selling the digital asset, as securities under U.S. laws or relevant applicable laws. As a result it is unlikely that fulsome disclosures from the issuer or sponsor, or any executive officer associated with the digital asset or related protocol have been provided, and others may have better or more information than the information made available to you via the Site, any information provided in connection with the Services or Perks provided to Grimmies NFT owners or to which you may independently have access.

There are risks associated with purchasing and holding digital assets. Loss of the full amount of the purchase price is possible. Volatility is highly likely, and some of the protocols and platforms may fail entirely due to forking, flaws in the code, hacking or other malicious attacks.

THESE TERMS DO NOT REPRESENT A COMPLETE STATEMENT OF RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DIGITAL ASSETS OR PRODUCTS THAT MAY BE VIEWED OR TRACKED ON THIS SITE OR THAT MAY BE FEATURED OR DISCUSSED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES OR PERKS FOR WEBACY COLLECTIVE NFT OWNERS. YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THESE RISK WARNINGS CAREFULLY AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ADVICE BEFORE TAKING ANY DECISION TO PURCHASE OR TRADE A DIGITAL ASSET.

11. RESTRICTIONS

You agree that you will not, and will not permit any third party to, do or attempt to do any of the following without the Webacy's express prior written consent in each case:

  • interfere with or disrupt the Services or servers or networks connected to the Services in any manner that could negatively affect or inhibit other Users from fully enjoying the Services or that could damage, disable, overburden or impair the functioning of the Services in any manner;
  • violate any applicable local, state, national or international law, or any regulations having the force of law, including but not limited to the U.S. Department of Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), or which would involve proceeds of any unlawful activity;

12. PRIVACY

Our Privacy Policy is a part of these Terms. Please review the Privacy Policy, which also governs the Services and informs Users of our data collection practices.

13. RISKS

Please note the following risks in accessing, purchasing, selling or using Grimmies NFTs: The price and liquidity of blockchain assets, including Grimmies NFTs, are extremely volatile and may be subject to large fluctuations. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could materially and adversely affect Grimmies NFTs, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of Grimmies NFTs. Grimmies NFTs are not legal tender and are not backed by any government. Transactions of Grimmies NFTs may be irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable. Some Transactions of Grimmies NFTs shall be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that you initiated the Transaction. The value of Grimmies NFTs may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currency or digital assets for Grimmies NFTs, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of a particular Grimmies NFT.

You agree and understand that you are solely responsible for determining the nature, potential value, suitability, and appropriateness of these risks for yourself, and that we do not give advice or recommendations regarding Grimmies NFTs, including the suitability and appropriateness of, and investment strategies for, Grimmies NFTs. You agree and understand that you access and use the Services, Grimmies NFTs, NFT IP, and Perks at your own risk; however, this brief statement does not disclose all of the risks associated with Grimmies NFTs and other digital assets. You agree and understand that Webacy will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using Grimmies NFTs, however caused.

17. TERMINATION RIGHTS

19. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

  • Agreement to Arbitrate
    This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in these Terms as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Webacy, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, Grimmies NFTs, Perks, any advertising, or any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into these Terms, you and Webacy are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.
  • Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief
    YOU AND WEBACY AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WEBACY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.
  • Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution
    Webacy is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer's satisfaction by emailing WEbacy at info@webacy.co. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If Webacy and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or Webacy may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Webacy or you will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Webacy is entitled.
  • Arbitration Procedures
    Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association's (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA's consumer arbitration page, https://www.adr.org/consumer. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under these Terms and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
    Unless Webacy and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, Webacy agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
  • Costs of Arbitration
    Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is $75,000 or less, at your request, Webacy will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than $75,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, Webacy will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Webacy will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys' fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
  • Confidentiality
    All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
  • Severability
    If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of these Terms will continue to apply.
  • Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement
    Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, Webacy agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a User of the Services, you may reject any such change by sending Webacy written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

You may not assign the Terms without the prior written consent of Webacy, but Webacy may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction.

With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and Webacy submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Portland, Oregon.

24. MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Webacy and govern your use of the Services, Grimmies NFTs, NFT IP and Perks, superseding any prior agreements between you and Webacy with respect thereto. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third party services, third party content or third party software. The failure of Webacy to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Services, any Grimmies NFT, any Perks or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail. Webacy may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Services.
