1.1 The Interface

The Interface is a web or mobile-based platform that facilitates access to a decentralized protocol on the Cardano Blockchain, which enables users to trade compatible digital assets, referred to as the “Minswap protocol” or the “Protocol”. The Interface is separate from the Protocol and is one of the methods, but not the sole means of accessing it. The Protocol includes self-executing smart contracts deployed on the Cardano Blockchain, and Minswap Labs does not control any version of the Protocol on any blockchain network. By using the Interface, you acknowledge that you are not engaging in the purchase or sale of digital assets from Minswap Labs, and we do not operate any liquidity pools.

Traders’ fees for trades are generally credited to liquidity providers for the Protocol or Protocol owned Liquidity. Minswap Labs does not typically provide liquidity into Protocol liquidity pools, and liquidity providers are autonomous third parties.

To access the Interface, you must use non-custodial wallet software that enables interaction with public blockchains. Your relationship with the non-custodial wallet provider is regulated by the applicable terms of service, including those of third-party wallets and Min Wallet under this Agreement. Minswap Labs does not have custody or control over the contents of your wallet, and we cannot retrieve or transfer its contents. By connecting your wallet to our Interface, you accept to be bound by this Agreement and all of its incorporated terms.

1.2 Third Party Services and Content

When you use any of our products, you may also use the products, services, or content of one or more third parties.

If you do not agree with any modifications made to this Agreement, you must immediately cease accessing and using all of our Products.

5. Disclaimers
5.1 Assumption of Risks

By accessing and utilizing any of our products, you represent and warrant that you possess adequate technical and financial knowledge to comprehend the inherent risks involved in using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems. You also acknowledge and understand the intricacies of digital assets, including but not limited to Cardano (ADA), stablecoins, and other digital tokens in the Cardano blockchain. You further acknowledge and understand that the markets for these digital assets are nascent and highly volatile due to factors such as adoption, speculation, technology, security, and regulation. You also acknowledge and understand that anyone can create a token, including fake versions of existing tokens and tokens that falsely claim to represent projects.

You specifically acknowledge and accept the risks associated with such tokens and understand that so-called stablecoins may not be as stable as they purport to be, may not be fully or adequately collateralized, and may be subject to panics and runs. Moreover, you understand that smart contract transactions automatically execute and settle, and that blockchain-based transactions are irreversible once confirmed. You acknowledge and accept that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems, such as Cardano, are variable and may increase dramatically at any time.

If you act as a liquidity provider to the protocol through the interface, you understand that your digital assets may lose some or all of their value while they are supplied to the protocol through the interface due to the fluctuation of prices of tokens in a trading pair or liquidity pool.

In summary, you acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for any of these variables or risks, do not own or control the protocol, and cannot be held liable for any resulting losses that you may incur while accessing or using any of our products.

Accordingly, you understand and agree to assume full responsibility for all the risks of accessing and using the interface to interact with the protocol.

5.2 No warranties

Each of our products is provided on a “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim any representations and warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including but not limited to, the warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. You acknowledge and agree that your use of each of our products is at your own risk. We do not represent or warrant that access to any of our products will be continuous, uninterrupted, timely, or secure; that the information contained in any of our products will be accurate, reliable, complete, or current; or that any of our products will be free from errors, defects, viruses, or other harmful elements. No advice, information, or statement that we make should be treated as creating any warranty concerning any of our products. We do not endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any advertisements, offers, or statements made by third parties concerning any of our products.

Similarly, the protocol is provided “as is,” at your own risk, and without warranties of any kind. Although we contributed to the initial code for the protocol, we do not control your funds, which are in smart contracts deployed on the blockchain. No developer or entity involved in creating the protocol will be liable for any claims or damages whatsoever associated with your use, inability to use, or your interaction with other users of the protocol, including any direct, indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or loss of profits, cryptocurrencies, tokens, or anything else of value. We do not endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any advertisements, offers, or statements made

5.3 No Investment Advice

We may provide information about tokens sourced from third-party data partners through our features and may include warning labels for certain tokens. However, this information is for informational purposes only and should not be considered investment advice or a recommendation that a particular token is a safe or sound investment. We are not trying to induce you to make any purchase as a result of the information provided, and you alone are responsible for determining whether any investment, investment strategy, or related transaction is appropriate for you.

5.4 Indemnification

You agree to hold us and our officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and subsidiaries harmless from any claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses arising from your use of any of our Products, your violation of this Agreement or any applicable law, rule, or regulation, any other party’s use of any of our Products with your assistance, or any dispute between you and another user of any of our Products or any of your own customers or users.

5.5 Limitation of Liability

We, and our officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and subsidiaries, shall not be liable to you for any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages arising out of or in connection with your access or use of any of our Products. We are not responsible for any damage, loss, or injury resulting from hacking, tampering, or other unauthorized access or use of any of our Products or the information contained within. We also assume no liability or responsibility for errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies of content, personal injury or property damage resulting from your use of any of our Products, or unauthorized access or use of any secure server or database in our control. Finally, we have no liability for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any payments or transactions you engage in via any of our Products, or any other payment or transactions you conduct via any of our Products.

5.6 Register

We are not registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any other agency, and we do not act as a broker to execute trades on your behalf. As a result, we do not (and cannot) guarantee market best pricing or best execution through our Products, which trades across liquidity pools on the Protocol only. Any references in a Product to “best price” does not constitute a representation or warranty about pricing available through such Product, on the Protocol, or elsewhere.
