Introduction and Nature of the Protocol
Welcome to nuBlock, a licensed platform under nuBlock LLC, managed by
nuBlock Labs, a decentralized, non-custodial payment and social
ecosystem built on the Ethereum virtual machine networks
infrastructure. These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and
use of the nuBlock ecosystem, decentralized payment protocol, and
associated services. By accessing the nuBlock network you acknowledge
that nuBlock is not a financial institution, bank, or brokerage. We
provide a strategic outlook and software solutions that allow you to
interact directly with the EVM and Solana network blockchains. Your
use of our services constitutes a binding agreement that you
understand the decentralized nature of our network, where privacy and
user autonomy are the core design principles.
The Interfaces and Features
nuBlock provides a multi-faceted interface allowing for professional
social interaction, including audio, video, and document sharing,
alongside a non-custodial wallet (vault) for digital assets
transactions. Our platform utilizes EVM networks technology to ensure
transparency and security in every transaction. Features include
"Swaps, Transactions, and Pay-To-View" content structures,
cross-platform technology solutions, and integration with third-party
APIs such as, i.e Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum and or Solana networks.
We do not host your digital assets on our servers; instead, our
interface facilitates your interaction with smart contracts. You
remain in sole control of your private keys, which are stored locally
on your device upon downloading or interacting with the nuBlock
ecosystem.
Modifications to Terms and Services
As technology and the regulatory compliance for blockchain evolve,
nuBlock reserves the right to modify these terms at any time. We will
provide notice of significant changes by updating the date of these
terms or through in-network notifications. Your continued use of the
platform after such modifications constitutes acceptance of the
revised terms. Furthermore, because nuBlock is a decentralized
network, specific features or smart contracts may be updated,
deprecated, or replaced to improve network security or efficiency
without prior individual consent.
Your Responsibilities and Representations
When using nuBlock, you represent that you are of legal age and
possess the capacity to enter into this agreement. You are solely
responsible for your behavior, content, and the security of your
account credentials, including your 12 word key phrase, PIN and
security questions. You represent that you will not use the platform
for any illegal activities, including money laundering or financing
terrorism. You acknowledge that as a decentralized platform, nuBlock
does not store your private keys and cannot retrieve lost funds, reset
forgotten 12 word key phrases, PINs, security questions or reverse
transactions. You are responsible for ensuring all 42-character wallet
addresses are accurate before initiating a transfer.
Intellectual Property Rights
All rights, titles, and interests in the nuBlock brand, logos,
software, and proprietary technology are the exclusive property of
nuBlock. While we empower users to share content, the underlying
infrastructure, code, and "nuBlock" trademarks remain protected. Users
are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to
access the platform for personal or professional use. You may not
attempt to decompile, reverse engineer, or maliciously exploit the
nuBlock smart contracts or interface. User-generated content remains
the property of the creator, though you grant nuBlock the technical
right to host and display such content within the network as per your
privacy settings.
Third-Party Information or Services
Our services integrate with third-party providers, including but not
excluding, all ethereum virtual machine blockchain networks, solana
network, coinbase, for fiat-to-crypto 0n-off ramping, and Google or
Apple for in-store payments. nuBlock does not control these third
parties, and your interaction with them is governed by their
respective terms. We are not responsible for any delays, failures, or
security breaches occurring within third-party systems. Furthermore,
while we provide links or access to external blockchain data and
decentralized applications (dApps), we do not endorse or assume
liability for the accuracy of information provided by outside
businesses or persons.
Indemnification
You agree to hold harmless, defend, and indemnify nuBlock, nuBlock
LLC, its officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, or
losses arising from your use of the platform. This includes, but is
not limited to, your violation of these terms, your infringement of
any third-party rights, or any volatile behavior or content you post
within the social structure. Because nuBlock is a decentralized tool,
you assume all liability for transactions executed through your wallet
(vault) and any resulting financial or legal consequences.
Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability
nuBlock is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis. We make no
warranties regarding the uptime of the Blockchain networks that we
provide service through or the constant availability of our interface.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, nuBlock shall not be liable
for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including loss
of funds, unsuccessful transactions, or errors in transfers. Digital
assets are inherently volatile; nuBlock does not guarantee
profitability or protection against market loss. You acknowledge that
blockchain transactions are irreversible and that nuBlock has no power
to "roll back" or cancel transactions once they are broadcast to the
network.

This section dictates how legal disputes are handled and outlines your
obligations regarding international sanctions and regional laws.

the
European Union (EU)
or
the
United Kingdom (UK)
,
nothing in these terms shall deprive you of the protection afforded to
you by mandatory provisions of the laws of your country of residence,

nuBlock is a decentralized protocol, we do not have the ability to
"freeze" funds once they are in your non-custodial vault; however, we
reserve the right to use geolocation blocking and address-screening
technology to restrict access to our Interface for any user
originating from or associated with a sanctioned jurisdiction. You are
solely responsible for ensuring your use of the platform complies with
all local and international laws.
Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

nuBlock agree to resolve any controversy, claim, or dispute arising
out of these Terms through
binding, individual arbitration
. This includes claims related to "Transactions," "Swaps,"
"Pay-To-View" earnings, or any user-to-user interaction. The
arbitration shall be conducted in English and administered by a
recognized international arbitral body (such as the
LCIA
for UK/EU disputes or
AAA/ICDR
for others).
You expressly waive your right to a trial by jury and your right to
participate in a class-action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration
. You agree to bring claims only in your individual capacity and not
as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or
representative proceeding.
Decentralized Interaction Disclaimer
You acknowledge that nuBlock provides only the decentralized
infrastructure (via the EVM, and or Solana, Bitcoin Networks) and does
not act as an intermediary, escrow agent, or arbitrator for
peer-to-peer disputes. nuBlock has no control over, and no liability
for, the delivery, quality, or legality of any content or services
purchased through “Transactions." Any dispute regarding the execution
or outcome of a smart contract is a matter between the participating
users on the blockchain. nuBlock cannot reverse, cancel, or refund any
on-chain transaction once it has been broadcast to the network.
No Relationship or Assignments
Nothing in these terms creates a partnership, joint venture, or agency
relationship between you and nuBlock. You may not assign or transfer
your rights under these terms to any other party. nuBlock may assign
its rights or obligations under these terms in the event of a merger,
acquisition, or sale of assets, provided that your personally
identifying information remains protected under our privacy standards.
Entire Agreement
These Terms and Conditions, alongside our Privacy Policy, constitute
the entire agreement between you and nuBlock regarding the use of our
services. This agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous
communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or written. If
any provision of these terms is found to be unenforceable by a court
of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will remain in
full force and effect.
No Waiver
The failure of nuBlock to enforce any right or provision of these
terms shall not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. Any
waiver of any provision of these terms will be effective only if in
writing and signed by an authorized representative of nuBlock. Our
commitment to maintaining a safe, professional, and decentralized
environment remains our priority, regardless of any delays in
enforcing specific community guidelines.
