Our Services. 2.1 Digital Currency Services. Wallex PAY ’s VASP Services or the services of their partners enable you to store, track, transfer, manage and convert your balances (collectively, “Digital Currency Transactions”) of certain supported digital currencies in digital currency wallets hosted by Wallex PAY , as the case may be. We will process Digital Currency Transactions in accordance with the instructions we receive from you. When you request that an Additional Counterparty receive or deposit digital currency into your Account from another one of your accounts or wallets or request that such Additional Counterparty transfer digital currency to another wallet or account from your Account, you authorize such Additional Counterparty to execute such transaction via the Services. Prior to submitting instructions to us, you should verify all transaction information. We do not guarantee the identity of any recipient, user, requestee or other party. You cannot reverse a Digital Currency Transaction once it has been broadcast to the relevant digital currency network. If a Digital Currency Transaction has not yet been confirmed on the digital currency network, digital currency associated with such transaction will be designated as pending and will not be included in your digital currency wallet balance or be available to conduct Digital Currency Transactions. You cannot reverse or change any Digital Currency Transaction marked as complete or pending. You must comply with all applicable laws, regulations, licensing requirements and third party rights (including, without limitation, data privacy laws) in your use of the Services. We may refuse to process or cancel any pending Digital Currency Transaction as required by law or any court or other authority to which we are subject in any jurisdiction. We further reserve the right to delay any Digital Currency Transaction if we perceive a risk of fraud or illegal activity. We also have the right to refuse to process or cancel any Digital Currency Transaction due to technological issues with the blockchain software, our own software, or for other technological reasons. Our Services are available only in connection with those digital currencies that we support which may change from time to time. A full list of the digital currencies we currently support can be found on the Website at Supported Coins. You will not use your Account or your digital currency wallet to store, send, request, or receive digital currencies in any form that we do not support (we will use reasonable efforts to help you move or sell digital currency that we no longer support). We assume no responsibility or liability in connection with any attempt to use your Account or digital currency wallet for digital currencies that we do not support. You agree that you will not receive interest or other earnings in your Account or digital currency wallet from the use of our Services except through your own Digital Currency Transactions and we have no responsibility or liability to you for Digital Currency Transactions conducted by you or conducted by us in accordance with your instructions. You are prohibited from using our Services for any illegal or fraudulent purposes or for the purpose of consummating transactions for any other parties. All digital currency or virtual assets received by an Additional Counterparty into your Account (“Received Assets”) are custodial assets held by such Additional Counterparty for your benefit, as described in further detail below:
(a) Ownership. Title to Received Assets shall at all times remain with you and shall not transfer to the Additional Counterparty, except as provided herein. As the owner of the Received Assets in your Account, you bear all risk of loss of such Received Assets, and we have no responsibility or liability with respect to the value of the digital currency or virtual assets in your Account. We are under no obligation to issue any replacement digital currency, virtual assets or funds in the event that any digital currency, virtual assets, funds or password are lost, stolen, malfunctioning, destroyed or otherwise inaccessible. None of the Received Assets in your Account are the property of the Additional Counterparty. The Additional Counterparty does not represent or treat Received Assets in your Account as belonging to it. However, a court may disagree with such Additional Counterparty’s treatment of your assets and subject them to claims of such Additional Counterparty’s creditors. Except as required by a facially valid court order, applicable law, or except as provided herein, the Additional Counterparty will not sell, transfer, loan, hypothecate or otherwise alienate Received Assets in your Account unless instructed by you or as otherwise authorized by this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Additional Counterparties make no warranty that digital currency or virtual assets in your Account (including Received Assets) are held by you free and clear of any security interest or other lien or encumbrance. (b) Control. You control the Received Assets. At any time, subject to outages, downtime, and other applicable policies or the other terms of this Agreement, you may withdraw your Received Assets by sending them to a different blockchain address controlled by you or a third party. (c) Wallets. Unless otherwise instructed and agreed to by an Additional Counterparty, your digital currency will be held in a general multi-client wallet managed and overseen by such Additional Counterparty and its accounting procedures or your digital currency may be held in a separate individual wallet if instructed by you and when available as part of such Additional Counterparty’s Services in such Additional Counterparty’s sole discretion.
2.2 Internet Provider. We act as a Service provider by creating, hosting, maintaining and providing our Services to you via the Internet. We cannot ensure that a buyer or a seller you are dealing with will complete the Digital Currency Transaction and all risk of a Digital Currency Transaction remains with you. We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to our Services or the Wallex PAY Site and we make no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete Digital Currency Transaction processing which is dependent upon many factors outside of our control. Access to Services may become degraded or unavailable during times of significant volatility or volume.
2.3 Underlying Protocols. We do not own, control, operate or maintain the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of the digital currencies supported by us. In general, the underlying protocols are open source software and anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. By using our Services, you acknowledge, agree and accept the risk (i) that we are not responsible for the operation of the underlying protocols and any changes to such protocols and we make no guarantee of their security, functionality or availability; and (ii) that the underlying protocols are subject to sudden changes in operating rules, which may, amongst other things, materially affect the value, function, name of the digital currency and/or our ability to support certain digital currencies and we are not liable for any loss of value you may experience as a result of such changes in operating rules. In the event of a fork in a digital currency, you agree that we may temporarily suspend our Services (with or without advance notice to you) and that we may, in our sole discretion, decide whether or not to support (or cease supporting) either branch of the forked protocol entirely. You also agree that in the event you send a Digital Currency Transaction at the time of a digital currency fork, we will only honor the originally intended Digital Currency Transaction that you sent. You acknowledge and agree that we assume absolutely no responsibility or liability whatsoever in respect of an unsupported branch of a forked protocol. 2.4 Identity Verification.

You will need to complete certain verification procedures before you are permitted to use our Services.

You authorize us to make inquiries, whether directly or through third parties, that we consider necessary to verify your identity or protect you and/or us against fraud or other financial crime, and to take action we reasonably deem necessary based on the results of such inquiries. When we carry out these inquiries, you acknowledge and agree that your personal information may be disclosed to fraud prevention or financial crime agencies and that these agencies may respond to our inquiries in full. You are solely responsible and liable for the activity that occurs in relation to your Account and for maintaining the security of your Account by protecting your password and restricting access to your Account.

To apply for a refund, open a support ticket providing your transaction ID, verification code, and refund digital currency address. The ticket must be opened with the email address used for the applicable Digital Currency Transaction. Refunds will be either (in our sole discretion): (a) the original amount of the digital currency we have received and is still within our control; or (b) an amount equivalent to the USD value at the time of the Digital Currency Transaction. All refunds must be claimed within 90 days of us receiving your digital currency or it will be forfeited. Refunds of digital currency and other funds may be returned to you minus our costs, the unsubsidized coin/miner network transaction fee and any other thirdparty charges. For a refund to be honored it must be at least equal to the network transaction fee for that digital currency times two, otherwise it will be forfeited.
6.3 Sent to wrong coin/chain, missing tags, delisted coins, etc. If you have sent digital currency to the wrong digital currency wallet or blockchain, or to a delisted digital currency address and it needs to be recovered by us manually there will be a recovery fee equal to $50 United States dollars, if the digital currency can be recovered at all, and we reserve the right in our sole discretion to not attempt to recover small amounts. This would also apply to digital currency that require a destination tag, payment ID, memo, etc. that was not sent or sent to an incorrect address. We will not recover digital currency we do not support. You must contact us within 90 days after an applicable Digital Currency Transaction for us to recover your digital currency, if recoverable, or it will be forfeited.
6.4 No Liability for Errors/Omissions.
