EULAs and Third Parties

StrongBlock and/or entities that sell products on this Site are primarily responsible for fulfillment of orders, warranty, maintenance, technical, and product support services for those products.

You will be bound by any EULA to which you agree.



StrongBlock makes no express representations or warranties and hereby disclaims any implied warranty regarding any third-party site or services. In particular, StrongBlock makes no representation or warranty and disclaims any implied warranty that any service or subscription offered via third-party vendors will not change or not be suspended or terminated.

Payments and Fees



The payment facilitator is primarily responsible for facilitating payment for your purchase. When you use any third-party payment facilitator (“payment facilitator”) to make a purchase on this Site, responsibility over your purchase will first be transferred to the payment facilitator before it is delivered to you. The payment facilitator assumes primary responsibility, with StrongBlock's assistance, for payment and payment-related customer support. The terms between the payment facilitator and customers who utilize the services offered by the payment facilitator are governed by separate agreements and are not subject to the Terms on this Site.



For purchases made through a payment facilitator, (i) the privacy policy of the payment facilitator shall apply to all payments and should be reviewed before making any purchase, and (ii) the payment facilitator refund policy shall apply to all payments unless notice is expressly provided by the relevant supplier to buyers in advance. You are responsible for any fees, taxes or other costs associated with the purchase and delivery of your purchases resulting from charges imposed by your relationship with payment services providers or the duties and taxes imposed by your local customs officials or other regulatory body. Any separate charges or obligations you incur in your dealings with other third-party service providers are your responsibility.



StrongBlock shall charge all applicable fees on the payment facilitator account associated to your StrongBlock account. You are responsible for providing StrongBlock valid information for making and receiving payments in compliance with the Privacy Policy. You may modify this information by making a request via the “Get Assistance” functionality available via the HELP tab at https://blockchain.strongblock.io/dashboard/. You must submit a support ticket with your new account information if this information changes.



StrongBlock accepts no liability and specifically disclaims any implied warranty to complete any transaction that cannot be cleared by its payment facilitator, whether because there are not sufficient funds available on your credit card, issues related to identity or localization or otherwise. StrongBlock reserves its right to verify and approve any and all transactions made by you when using the Service to ensure that they comply with this Agreement and the terms imposed to StrongBlock by third-party service providers. You expressly acknowledge and agree that such verifications may require you to provide StrongBlock with additional personal information in order to verify and confirm your identity and to perform verifications aimed to deter fraud and misuse of the Service, in compliance with StrongBlock's Privacy Policy. StrongBlock may suspend your account and contact you so you can provide StrongBlock with additional information required to process payments. Such suspension shall not relieve you from your obligation to pay any fees owed to StrongBlock.



All monies stipulated in these Terms and in the Service are expressed in USD and include all applicable taxes.



Your purchases of Marketplace items are final, non-refundable sales, except where specifically noted otherwise. Making or receiving payments on the Service may be delayed whileStrongBlock validates your compliance with these Terms. You agree not to initiate any claim and dispute procedure with third parties regarding payment and receipt of products or services. The first instance of initiating such a claim and dispute procedure will result in a 24-hour suspension of your account for use of the Service or automatic termination of your individual account and use of the Service. Any other instance of initiation of a claim and dispute procedure may result in automatic termination of your individual account and use of the Service. You will exclusively submit any disagreement, dispute, complaint, or query by means of the “Support Ticket” functionality available via the HELP tab at https://blockchain.strongblock.io/dashboard/. Any other media or communication sources (including without limitation Reddit, email, group pages and the like) do not constitute a valid means to engage with StrongBlock for support. Any refunds for purchases following your instructions shall be at StrongBlock's sole, unfettered, and exclusive discretion, and provided only on an exceptional basis.

Customer Service and Refunds

For customer service inquiries or disputes, please submit a ticket via the HELP tab on https://blockchain.strongblock.io/dashboard/.



Questions related to payments made through the payment facilitator payment should be addressed to support@strongblock.io.



When possible, StrongBlock will use commercially reasonable efforts to work with you and/or any party selling on the Site to resolve any disputes arising from your purchase.



StrongBlock's Refund Policy relating to the Service is more fully described at https://strongblock.io StrongBlock may modify these processes and related functionality from time to time at its sole discretion without notice. You understand and agree that any refunds and access to the sums deposited in your account depend on a number of factors, including without limitation the applicable policies of StrongBlock's third-party service providers. In some instances, StrongBlock may charge you an administrative fee to process refund requests where such fees are imposed to StrongBlock by third party payment facilitators. Please read StrongBlock's Refund Policy carefully, as it is distinct from the Service’s cash-out policies.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION - AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE

Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration; Jury Trial Waiver; Class Action Waiver.



PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.



INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION: Most user concerns can be resolved by use of our Support Ticket system available via the HELP tab at: https://blockchain.strongblock.io/dashboard. If StrongBlock is unable to resolve your concerns and a dispute remains between you and StrongBlock, this Section explains how the parties have agreed to, and shall, resolve it.



You and StrongBlock agree to make reasonable, good faith efforts to informally resolve any dispute before you initiate formal dispute resolution. You agree to send StrongBlock a written notice that describes the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and sets forth the relief sought. Written notice to StrongBlock must be sent via postal mail to Strathvale House, 90 North Church Street, George Town, Grand Cayman, KY1-1106, Cayman Islands (“Notice Address”).



FORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION: If StrongBlock and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, then your options for formal dispute resolution depend upon your country of residence. This Section does not prevent you from bringing your dispute to the attention of any federal, state, or local government agencies that can, if the law allows, seek relief from us for you.



FOR RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED STATES & OTHER JURISDICTIONS THAT ENFORCE BINDING ARBITRATION: YOU AND StrongBlock AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND StrongBlock ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OR TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH StrongBlock AS A USER OF THE SERVICE (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER THE CLAIMS ARISE DURING OR AFTER THE TERMINATION OF THE SERVICE) WILL BE DETERMINED BY MANDATORY BINDING INDIVIDUAL (NOT CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR StrongBlockTED ACTION) ARBITRATION. YOU AND StrongBlock FURTHER AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE THE EXCLUSIVE POWER TO RULE ON HIS OR HER OWN JURISDICTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE EXISTENCE, SCOPE OR VALIDITY OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT OR TO THE ARBITRABILITY OF ANY CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM.



Arbitration is a proceeding before a neutral arbitrator, instead of before a judge or jury. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court, and provides more limited discovery. It follows different rules than court proceedings, and is subject to very limited review by courts. The arbitrator will issue a written decision and provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND TO HAVE A TRIAL BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.



YOU AND StrongBlock AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER (OR IN A REPRESENTATIVE OR StrongBlockTED ACTION) IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR, REPRESENTATIVE, OR StrongBlockTED ACTION. Unless both you and StrongBlock agree, no arbitrator or judge may StrongBlockte more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and the arbitrator specifically does not have the power to alter this. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this Section’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.



Either you or we may start arbitration proceedings. Any arbitration between you and StrongBlock will be administered at the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) International Court of Arbitration under the Rules of Arbitration of the ICC then in force (the “ICC Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement, or, if ICC no longer exists or is unable to participate, such other arbitration forum selected by StrongBlock. The language to be used in the arbitral proceeding shall be English. For more information on the ICC, the Rules and Procedures, or the process for filing an arbitration claim, you may call the ICC in Paris, France at +33 (0) 1 49 53 28 28 or visit the ICC website at https://iccwbo.org.



Unless StrongBlock expressly agrees in writing to the contrary, the parties shall keep confidential all awards and orders in any arbitration pursuant to this section, as well as all materials in the arbitral proceedings created for the purpose of the arbitration and all other documents produced by another party in the arbitral proceedings not otherwise in the public domain; provided that the foregoing shall not prevent either party from making any disclosure of such to the extent that disclosure is required of a Party by a legal duty, to protect or to pursue a legal right, or to enforce or challenge an award in legal proceedings before the appropriate court or other judicial authority. You and StrongBlock agree that the US Federal Arbitration Act applies and governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, to the extent applicable.



Absent a contrary decision of the arbitrator or otherwise required by applicable law, the parties agree that the seat and venue of the arbitration is the Cayman Islands. The language of the arbitration will be English. The arbitration will be conducted before one commercial arbitrator from the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. As modified by these Terms, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the ICC’s Arbitration Rules including its Expedited Procedure Provisions (collectively, the “Rules and Procedures”). The ICC Emergency Arbitrator Provisions shall not apply.

The dispute will be resolved by the submission of documents without a hearing, unless a hearing is requested by a party or deemed to be necessary by the arbitrator, in which case, a party may elect to participate telephonically. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing, and shall provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. You and StrongBlock may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.



Nothing in this Section removes or limits StrongBlock's liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, death or personal injury caused by its negligence, and, if required by applicable law, gross negligence. Additionally, notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, claims for infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property rights shall not be subject to arbitration under this Section.



You or StrongBlock may seek emergency equitable relief before a court located in the Cayman Islands in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration and you agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the Cayman Islands for such purpose. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to arbitrate.



FOR RESIDENTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION & OTHER JURISDICTIONS THAT DO NOT ENFORCE THE BINDING ARBITRATION ABOVE: Any non-arbitrable disputes arising under or in connection with these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Cayman Islands.



This Section will survive termination of your account and these Terms as well as any voluntary payment of any debt in full by you or any bankruptcy by you or StrongBlock. With the exception of any provision of this Section prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, then the balance of this arbitration provision will remain in effect and will be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting part was not contained herein. If, however, any provision of this Section prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision will be null and void, and neither you nor StrongBlock will be entitled to arbitration.



YOU AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.

User Disputes

You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user in connection with the Service and StrongBlock will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Service.

General

These Terms will be governed by the laws, restrictions, regulations and rules of the Cayman Islands without regard to its conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes or claims that do not fall within the agreement to arbitrate, set out above, you and StrongBlock agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The failure of StrongBlock to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect. A printed version of these Terms and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms without the prior written consent of StrongBlock, but StrongBlock may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction. 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 or other electronic service (as described in Communication Services above).



You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and StrongBlock as a result of these Terms or your use of the Service. StrongBlock's performance of these Terms is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing contained in these Terms is in derogation of StrongBlock's right to comply with governmental, court and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the Service or information provided to or gathered by StrongBlock with respect to such use.



Unless otherwise specified herein, these Terms constitute the entire agreement between the user and StrongBlock with respect to the Service and these Terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral or written, between the user and StrongBlock with respect to the Service, except for any Terms of Token Sale into which you have entered with StrongBlock. A printed version of these Terms and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. It is the express wish to the parties that these Terms and all related documents be written in English.

Termination



You may cancel your account at any time by making a request via a support ticket. StrongBlock reserves the right to suspend or end your use of the Service at any time at its discretion and without notice. For example, StrongBlock may suspend or terminate your use of the Service if you are not complying with this Agreement, or you are using the Site or Service in a manner that would cause StrongBlock legal liability, disrupt the Site or Service or disrupt others’ use of the Site or Service.



StrongBlock reserves the right to temporarily or permanently discontinue the Site or Service at any time. StrongBlock will deploy commercially reasonable efforts to notify you of such discontinuation, for example, by posting updates and notices on various social media. If you breach this Agreement, StrongBlock will have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately, and to deactivate your account, without notice.
