When each Liko NFT is sold for the first time, the agreement for sale is between the Company and the initial purchaser. If the initial purchaser decides to later sell the Liko NFT through the Liko Site, then the Liko Site serves only as a platform that facilitates transactions between a buyer and a seller and the Company shall not be a party to any agreement between such buyer and seller of the Liko NFTs or between any other User. To use our Service, you must use a third-party wallet which allows you to engage in transactions on blockchains such as Etherium.

You bear full responsibility for verifying the identity, legitimacy, and authenticity of the Liko NFTs that you purchase from other user while using the Service and we make no claims about the identity, legitimacy, functionality, or authenticity of the User.
All Liko NFTs are stored on and accessible through the Ethereum blockchain. As such, the Company does not maintain the Liko NFTs on this Site and, aside from transferring control of the Liko NFTs to the initial purchaser, the Company has no control over the transfer, storage, ownership or maintenance of the Liko NFTs.

The individual layered files and traits are proprietary and are our own creation. We don’t want to see any other projects utilizing our individually crafted layers, so we are not open to you minting new Liko NFTs that are derivatives of our project, change the original Liko, or minting another full project using our Liko NFT in any way. Other than that, you can create whatever merchandise you would like in accordance with our Experience Terms.

You may also choose to deepen your involvement with Liko and generate exclusive retailing distribution rights upon fulfilment of certain conditions such as having the specified number of keys and in compliance with our Experience Terms. This means there is a potential for using the Liko NFTs as an investment vehicle where you may become a wholesaler of Liko merchandise. While all this is an amazing opportunity for you to grow alongside Liko, we cannot make any promise or guarantee that these Liko NFTs will be worth anything more than what you and the market deem the art to be worth. This could very well be zero. We give you our word that we will try to build a community and bring as much tangible and intangible value and vibes to the project as we can!

9.1“Confidential Information” means non-public or proprietary information in any form disclosed by or on behalf of either party that (i) is marked or identified as “confidential” or with a similar designation, or (ii) by its nature or the circumstances of its disclosure ought reasonably to be treated as confidential. The Service, documentation, and Usage Information is Liko’s Confidential Information.
9.2Use. Each party will: (i) only use Confidential Information to fulfill its obligations hereunder and/or as contemplated by these Terms and the Privacy Policy; (ii) only provide access to Confidential Information on an “as-needed” basis to its personnel, agents, and/or consultants who are bound by obligations materially similar to this Section, and (iii) maintain Confidential Information using methods at least as protective as it uses to protect its own information of a similar nature, but in no event with less than a reasonable degree of care. The obligations in this Section will apply during and for three (3) years after the Term, except in the case of Confidential Information that is a trade secret, in which case the obligations will remain in effect as long as the trade secret is maintained.
9.3Exceptions. Confidential Information does not include information that is: (i) publicly available when disclosed or becomes publicly available without fault of the recipient after disclosure; (ii) rightfully learned by recipient from entities not bound to keep such information confidential, (iii) independently developed by recipient; or (iv) approved for unrestricted disclosure by the disclosing party. In addition, a recipient may disclose the other party’s Confidential Information as required by court order or applicable law (provided that, to the extent legally permissible, the recipient promptly notifies the other party of such requirement and cooperates with the other party’s reasonable efforts to prevent or limit the scope of such disclosure, at the other party's expense).
10. INDEMNIFICATION
By agreeing to these Terms and accessing the Service, you agree, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Liko, and our respective past, present, and future employees, officers, directors, contractors, consultants, equity holders, suppliers, vendors, service providers, parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, representatives, predecessors, successors, and assigns (individually and collectively, the “Liko Parties”), from and against all actual or alleged claims, damages, awards, judgments, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, interest, fees, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses), and costs (including, without limitation, court costs, costs of settlement, and costs of pursuing indemnification and insurance), of every kind and nature whatsoever, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, or suspected or unsuspected, in law or equity, whether in tort, contract, or otherwise (collectively, “Claims”), including, but not limited to, damages to property that are caused by, arise out of or are related to (a) your use or misuse of the Service, content, content linked to or associated with any Liko NFTs (b) any Feedback you provide, (c) your violation or breach of any term of these Terms or applicable law, and (d) your violation of the rights of or obligations to a third party, including another User or third-party, and (e) your negligence or willful misconduct.

You further agree that the Liko Parties shall have control of the defense or settlement of any Claims. THIS INDEMNITY IS IN ADDITION TO, AND NOT IN LIEU OF, ANY OTHER INDEMNITIES SET FORTH IN A WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND LIKO.
11. DISCLAIMERS
11.1YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND LIKO EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. LIKO (AND ITS AGENTS) MAKE NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION AND DISCLAIM ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHETHER THE SERVICE: (A) WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS; (B) WILL BE AVAILABLE ON AN UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE BASIS; OR (C) WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, COMPLETE, OR SAFE. LIKO DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. LIKO WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF ANY KIND FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN OR TAKEN IN RELIANCE OF MATERIAL INFORMATION, CONTAINED ON THE SERVICE. WHILE LIKO ATTEMPTS TO MAKE YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE SAFE, LIKO CANNOT AND DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE, CONTENT, CONTENT LINKED TO OR ASSOCIATED WITH ANY LIKO NFTS, OR ANY LIKO NFTS YOU INTERACT WITH USING OUR SERVICE OR OUR SERVICE PROVIDERS’ SERVERS ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THE SECURITY OF ANY DATA THAT YOU DISCLOSE ONLINE. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR OBTAINED FROM THE LIKO PARTIES OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION NOT EXPRESSLY MADE HEREIN. YOU ACCEPT THE INHERENT SECURITY RISKS OF PROVIDING INFORMATION AND DEALING ONLINE OVER THE INTERNET AND WILL NOT HOLD LIKO RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BREACH OF SECURITY.
11.2LIKO AND THE CONTROLLERS OF THE RELEVANT NETWORKS ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY LOSS AND TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR, AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR, ANY USE OF LIKO NFTS, CONTENT, AND/OR CONTENT LINKED TO OR ASSOCIATED WITH LIKO NFTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY LOSSES, DAMAGES, OR CLAIMS ARISING FROM: (A) USER ERROR, INCORRECTLY CONSTRUCTED TRANSACTIONS, OR MISTYPED ADDRESSES; (B) SERVER FAILURE OR DATA LOSS; (C) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR USE BY ANY THIRD PARTY ACTOR; (D) ANY UNAUTHORIZED THIRD-PARTY ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE USE OF VIRUSES, PHISHING, BRUTEFORCING OR OTHER MEANS OF ATTACK AGAINST THE SERVICE, LIKO NFTS OR COLLECTIBLES.

ANY TRANSFER OF TITLE THAT MIGHT OCCUR IN ANY UNIQUE DIGITAL ASSET OCCURS ON THE DECENTRALIZED LEDGER WITHIN THE ETHEREUM PLATFORM. LIKO AND/OR ANY OTHER LIKO PARTY CANNOT AFFECT OR OTHERWISE CONTROL THE TRANSFER OF TITLE OR RIGHT IN ANY LIKO NFTS OR UNDERLYING OR ASSOCIATED CONTENT OR ITEMS.
11.4NO LIKO PARTY IS RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY SUSTAINED LOSSES OR INJURY FOR SUSTAINED CASUALTIES DUE TO VULNERABILITY OR ANY KIND OF FAILURE, ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR OF SOFTWARE (E.G., WALLET, SMART CONTRACT), BLOCKCHAINS OR ANY OTHER FEATURES OF THE LIKO NFTS. NO LIKO PARTY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR LOSSES OR INJURY DUE TO LATE REPORTS BY DEVELOPERS OR REPRESENTATIVES (OR NO REPORT AT ALL) OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE BLOCKCHAIN SUPPORTING THE LIKO NFTS, INCLUDING FORKS, TECHNICAL NODE ISSUES OR ANY OTHER ISSUES HAVING LOSSES OR INJURY AS A RESULT.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties in contracts with consumers, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.
12. ASSUMPTION OF RISK
You accept and acknowledge:
c)The value of a Liko NFTs is subjective. Prices of Liko NFTs are subject to volatility and fluctuations in the price of cryptocurrency can also materially and adversely affect NFT prices. The market value of any NFT or Collectible may decline below the price for which a User acquires such asset through Liko Platform Site or on any other platform. User acknowledges and agrees that the costs and speeds of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems such as Ethereum are variable and may increase or decrease dramatically at any time, resulting in prolonged inability to access or use any ETH or Liko NFTs associated with Liko’s Platform Site. You acknowledge that you fully understand this subjectivity and volatility and that you may lose money.
d)A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems could negatively impact the development of those ecosystems and related applications, and could therefore also negatively impact the potential utility of Liko NFTs.
e)The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, non-fungible tokens, cryptocurrency, and other crypto-based items is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Service and the utility of Liko NFTs.
f)You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your transactions. Liko is not responsible for determining the taxes that apply to your Liko NFTs.
g)There are risks associated with purchasing items associated with content created by third parties through peer-to-peer transactions, including but not limited to, the risk of purchasing counterfeit items, mislabeled items, items that are vulnerable to metadata decay, items on smart contracts with bugs, and items that may become untransferable. You represent and warrant that you have done sufficient research before making any decisions to sell, obtain, transfer, or otherwise interact with any Liko NFTs or accounts.
h)We do not control the public blockchains that you are interacting with and we do not control certain smart contracts and protocols that may be integral to your ability to complete transactions on these public blockchains. Additionally, blockchain transactions are irreversible and Liko has no ability to reverse any transactions on the blockchain.
i)There are risks associated with using Internet and blockchain based products, including, but not limited to, the risk associated with hardware, software, and Internet connections, the risk of malicious software introduction, and the risk that third parties may obtain unauthorized access to your third-party wallet or Account. You accept and acknowledge that Liko will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using the Service or any Blockchain network, however caused.
j)Liko utilizes experimental cryptographic technologies and blockchain technologies, including tokens, cryptocurrencies, “smart contracts,” consensus algorithms, voting systems and distributed, decentralized or peer-to-peer networks or systems in performing the Service. Each User acknowledges and agrees that such technologies are novel, experimental, and speculative, and that therefore there is significant uncertainty regarding the operation and effects and risks thereof and the application of existing law thereto.
k)Certain Risks of Smart Contract Technology. Liko NFTs relevant to Liko Platform depend on WebFlow System or other smart contracts deployed to Ethereum, some of which may be coded or deployed by persons other than Liko. Once deployed to Ethereum, the code of smart contracts, including the WebFlow System, cannot be modified. In the event that Liko WebFlow System or other smart contracts are adversely affected by malfunctions, bugs, defects, hacking, theft, attacks, negligent coding or design choices, or changes to the protocol rules of Ethereum, User may be exposed to a risk of total loss and forfeiture of all Liko NFTs. Liko and its controllers of the relevant Networks assumes no liability or responsibility for any of the foregoing matters, except as otherwise expressly provided by these Terms or required by applicable law.
l)Liko reserves the right to hide contracts and items affected by any of these issues or by other issues. Items you purchase may become inaccessible on Liko. Under no circumstances shall the inability to view items on Liko or an inability to use the Service in conjunction with the purchase, sale, or transfer of items available on any blockchains serve as grounds for a claim against Liko.
m)If you have a dispute with one or more Users, YOU RELEASE US FROM CLAIMS, DEMANDS, AND DAMAGES OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES. IN ENTERING INTO THIS RELEASE YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY PROTECTIONS (WHETHER STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) THAT WOULD OTHERWISE LIMIT THE COVERAGE OF THIS RELEASE TO INCLUDE THOSE CLAIMS WHICH YOU MAY KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN YOUR FAVOR AT THE TIME OF AGREEING TO THIS RELEASE.
13. RISKS OF BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY
13.1Regulatory Uncertainty. Blockchain technologies and digital assets are subject to many legal and regulatory uncertainties, and the Liko Site Platform and Liko NFTs could be adversely impacted by one or more regulatory or legal inquiries, actions, suits, investigations, claims, fines or judgments, which could impede or limit the ability of User to continue the use and enjoyment of such assets and technologies.
13.2Fork Handling. Etherium, the Liko WebFlow System, the Liko NFTs, and the Collectibles may be subject to “forks.” Forks occur when some or all persons running the software clients for a particular blockchain system adopt a new client or a new version of an existing client that: (i) changes the protocol rules in backwards-compatible or backwards-incompatible manner that affects which transactions can be added into later blocks, how later blocks are added to the blockchain, or other matters relating to the future operation of the protocol; or (ii) reorganizes or changes past blocks to alter the history of the blockchain. Some forks are “contentious” and thus may result in two or more persistent alternative versions of the protocol or blockchain, either of which may be viewed as or claimed to be the legitimate or genuine continuation of the original. Liko may not be able to anticipate, control or influence the occurrence or outcome of forks, and does not assume any risk, liability or obligation in connection therewith. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Liko does not assume any responsibility to notify a User of pending, threatened or completed forks. Liko will respond to any forks as Liko determines in its sole and absolute discretion, and it shall not have any duty or obligation or liability to a User if such response (or lack of such response) acts to a User detriment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Liko’s possible and permissible responses to a fork may include: (i) honoring Liko’s WebFlow, Collectibles, and Liko NFTs on both chains; (ii) honoring the Liko’s WebFlow System, Collectibles, and Liko NFTs on only one of the chains; (iii) honoring the Liko’s WebFlow System, Collectibles, and Liko NFTs in different respects or to a different extent on both chains; or (iv) any other response or policy or procedure, as determined by Liko in its sole and absolute discretion. Liko reserves the right to only allow one NFT to be associated with the relevant metadata forming the Collectible, notwithstanding that copies of such NFT may exist on both chains following a fork. A User assumes full responsibility to independently remain apprised of and informed about possible forks, and to manage a User’s own interest in connection therewith.
14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
14.1TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL LIKO OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOST PROFIT OR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, PRODUCTS OR THIRD-PARTY SITES AND PRODUCTS, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES RELATED TO LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR LOSS OF DATA, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY STRICT LIABILITY OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE AND EVEN IF LIKO OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; OR (B) FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM, DEMAND, OR DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OF THE DELIVERY, USE, OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICE. ACCESS TO, AND USE OF, THE SERVICE, PRODUCTS OR THIRD-PARTY SITES, AND PRODUCTS ARE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA RESULTING THEREFROM.
14.2NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF LIKO ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THESE TERMS, THE ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE, CONTENT, LIKO NFTS, OR ANY LIKO PRODUCTS OR PLATFORM EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) $100 OR (B) THE AMOUNT RECEIVED BY LIKOIN THE LAST TWELVE MONTHS FOR ITS SERVICE DIRECTLY RELATING TO THE ITEMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE CLAIM. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
14.3Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. All provisions of these Terms which disclaim or limit obligations or liabilities of Liko shall also apply to the officers, directors, members, employees, independent contractors, agents, stockholders, debtholders and affiliates of Liko.
15. PRIVACY POLICY
15.1Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information about how we collect, use, and share personal data about you. By submitting personal data through our Service, you agree to the terms of our Privacy Policy and you expressly consent to the Collection, use, and disclosure of your personal data in accordance with the Privacy Policy.
15.2Liko owns all data regarding installation, registration, and use of the Service, and related to Service performance, including response times, load averages, usage statistics, and activity logs, (collectively, “Usage Information”). Usage Information includes information about Liko’s Site. Usage Information does not include any personally identifiable information but may include aggregated information derived from a User. Usage Information is used to contribute to analytical models used by Liko, to monitor and improve the Service, and to perform Liko’s obligations under this Agreement.
16. MODIFICATIONS TO THE SERVICE
We reserve the right in our sole discretion to modify, suspend, or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any features or parts thereof) at any time and without liability as a result. Liko may from time to time alter the list of smart contracts including pursuant to upgrades, forks, security incident responses or chain migrations.
17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION
17.1Dispute Resolution. Please read the following arbitration agreement in this Section (“Dispute Resolution; Arbitration”) carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with Liko and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. This section does not govern disputes between User or between User and third parties. Liko does not provide dispute resolution platform for such disagreements and the parties must resolve those disputes directly.
17.2Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute, controversy, or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Service, to any products sold or distributed through the Service, or to any aspect of your relationship with Liko, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, including threshold questions of the arbitrability of such dispute, controversy, or claim except that (1) you or Liko may assert claims in small claims court, but only if the claims qualify, the claims remain only in such court, and the claims remain on an individual, non-representative, and non-class basis; and (2) you or Liko may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of proper jurisdiction if the claim relates to intellectual property infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
17.3You and Liko both agree to engage in good-faith efforts to resolve disputes prior to either party initiating an arbitration, small claims court proceeding, or equitable relief for intellectual property infringement. You must initiate this dispute resolution process by sending a letter describing the nature of your claim, name and address, your Account Username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Account (if you have one) and desired resolution to: legal@likoverse.com, Wolf Industries Inc., 1212 San Vicente Blvd. Santa Monica, CA, 90402. Both parties agree to meet and confer personally, by telephone, or by videoconference (hereinafter “Conference”) to discuss the dispute and attempt in good faith to reach a mutually beneficial outcome that avoids the expenses of arbitration or, where applicable, litigation. If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the Conference as well, but you agree to fully participate in the Conference. Likewise, if Liko is represented by counsel, its counsel may participate in the Conference as well, but Liko agrees to have a company representative fully participate in the Conference. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process and Conference required by this paragraph. If the parties do not reach agreement to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after initiation of this dispute resolution process, either party may commence arbitration, file an action in small claims court, or file a claim for injunctive or equitable relief in a court of proper jurisdiction for matters relating to intellectual property infringement, if the claims qualify.
17.4Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to these Terms. Any dispute that may not be brought in small claims court will be resolved by binding and confidential arbitration conducted in the English language, in Nevada, before one commercial arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes and governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”).
17.5In the event the parties are unable to agree on the selection of an arbitrator within 15 days from the filing of a demand for arbitration, the AAA shall appoint the arbitrator.
17.6Any such arbitration shall be administered by the AAA in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the supplementary procedures for consumer related disputes of the AAA excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions.
17.7Seat of the Arbitration. The seat of arbitration shall be Nevada. The arbitrator may choose to have the arbitration of any Dispute conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or at a mutually agreed location; provided, however, that Liko may opt to transfer the venue of any arbitration hearing to Nevada in the event that it agrees to pay any additional fees or costs a User may reasonably incur as a result of the change in venue, as determined by the arbitrator, and, subject to the foregoing, a User hereby agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Nevada, in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
17.8YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY FOR ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THESE TERMS, EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY A NEUTRAL SOLE ARBITRATOR AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. YOU ARE ENTITLED TO A FAIR HEARING, BUT THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES ARE SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. ARBITRATOR DECISIONS ARE AS ENFORCEABLE AS ANY COURT ORDER AND ARE SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
17.9ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF.
17.10You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Section 17 (for purposes of this Section only, the “Dispute Resolution; Arbitration”) requiring and governing arbitration by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: legal@likoverse.com, ATTN: Legal Likoverse within thirty (30) days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Account Username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you.
17.11Any arbitration award will be final and binding upon the parties without appeal or review except as permitted by State of Nevada or United States federal law. Each party will bear its own costs with respect to the arbitration procedure.
17.12Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, and (2) claims of (A) defamation, (B) violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, or (C) infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s intellectual property rights, may be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in Nevada. The parties agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts for such purpose. A request for equitable relief will not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.
17.13Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Liko. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and these Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
17.14Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND LIKO HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Liko are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 17 (“Dispute Resolution; Arbitration”). An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
17.15Waiver of Class Actions and Class Arbitrations. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A REPRESENTATIVE OR COLLECTIVE CLASS BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER, PERSON, OR ENTITY CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER, PERSON, OR ENTITY. Accordingly, under the arbitration procedures outlined in this section, an arbitrator shall not combine or consolidate more than one party’s claims without the written consent of all affected parties to an arbitration proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you and Liko agree that no dispute shall proceed by way of class arbitration without the written consent of all affected parties. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any part of this subsection’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then that claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought in the state or federal courts located in Nevada. All other claims shall be arbitrated.
17.16Severability. Except as provided in this Section, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
17.17Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Liko.
17.18Modification. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, we agree that if Liko makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, you may reject that change within thirty (30) days of such change becoming effective by writing to Liko at the following address: legal@likoverse.com, Wolf Industries Inc., 1212 San Vicente Blvd. Santa Monica, CA, 90402.
18. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE
These Terms and your access to and use of the Service shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Nevada (without regard to conflict of law rules or principles of Nevada, or any other jurisdiction that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction). Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration as set forth in Section 17 or cannot be heard in small claims court, shall be resolved in the state or federal courts of Nevada, and the United States, respectively, sitting in Nevada.
19. AGREEMENTS IF CLASS ACTION WAIVER UNENFORCEABLE
If any court or arbitrator makes a final, binding and non-appealable determination that the class action waiver set forth in this Section 17 is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth in Section 17 shall be deemed null and void with respect to any Dispute that would thus be required to be resolved by arbitration on a class basis, and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate such Dispute. In the event that, as a result of the application of the immediately preceding sentence or otherwise, any Dispute is not subject to arbitration, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in the federal and state courts located in Nevada and to accept service of process by mail with respect to such Dispute, and hereby waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defenses otherwise available with respect to such Dispute.
20. TERMINATION
20.1.The User may terminate these Terms at any time by stopping use of the Service and upon proper Notice to Liko as stated in this Terms. Liko may also terminate these Terms due to User breach.
20.2.If you breach any of the provisions of these Terms, all licenses granted by Liko will terminate automatically. Additionally, notwithstanding anything contained in these Terms, we reserve the right, with or without notice and in our sole discretion, to suspend, disable, terminate, or delete your Account and/or your ability to access or use the Service (or any part of the foregoing) at any time and for any or no reason, and you acknowledge and agree that we shall have no liability or obligation to you in such event and that you will not be entitled to a refund of any amounts that you have already paid to us.
20.3.Effect of Termination. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, the rights and licenses granted under this Agreement will immediately terminate. Sections 2, 9, 14, 20.3 and 24 will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason.
21. SEVERABILITY
If any term, clause, or provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, then that term, clause, or provision will be severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining part of that term, clause, or provision, or any other term, clause, or provision of these Terms.
22. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF
You agree that a breach of these Terms will cause irreparable injury to Liko for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and Liko shall be entitled to equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security, or proof of damages.
23. CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
If you are a California resident, in accordance with Cal. Civ. Code § 1789.3, you may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Platform of the California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112 Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 or by email to: dca@dca.ca.gov.
24. EXPORT LAWS
You agree that you will not export or re-export, directly or indirectly, the Service, and/or other information or materials provided by Liko hereunder, to any country for which the United States or any other relevant jurisdiction requires any export license or other governmental approval at the time of export without first obtaining such license or approval. In particular, but without limitation, the Service may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries or any country that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country, or (b) to anyone listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties, including the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such country or on any such list. You are responsible for and hereby agree to comply at your sole expense with all applicable United States export laws and regulations.
25. ABSENCE OF SANCTIONS
User is not, (and, if User is an entity, User is not owned or controlled by any other person who is), and is not acting on behalf of any other person who is, identified on any list of prohibited parties under any law or by any nation or government, state or other political subdivision thereof, any entity exercising legislative, judicial or administrative functions of or pertaining to government such as the lists maintained by the United Nations Security Council, the U.S. government (including the U.S. Treasury Department’s Specially Designated Nationals list and Foreign Sanctions Evaders list), the European Union (EU) or its member states, and the government of a User home country. User is not, (and, if User is an entity, User is not owned or controlled by any other person who is), and is not acting on behalf of any other person who is, located, ordinarily resident, organized, established, or domiciled in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Syria, the Crimea region (including Sevastopol) or any other country or jurisdiction against which the U.S. maintains economic sanctions or an arms embargo. The tokens or other funds a User use to participate in Liko’s Site Platform or acquire Liko NFTs are not derived from, and do not otherwise represent the proceeds of, any activities done in violation or contravention of any law.
26. SURVIVAL
All sections which by their nature should survive the termination of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding any termination of these Terms by Liko or you. Termination will not limit any of Liko’s other rights or remedies at law or in equity.
27. FORCE MAJEURE
Liko shall not incur any liability or penalty for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty or obligation hereunder or in connection with the matters contemplated hereby by reason of any occurrence that is not within its control (including any provision of any present or future law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, any act of God or war or terrorism, any epidemic or pandemic, or the unavailability, disruption or malfunction of the Internet, the World Wide Web or any other electronic network, the Ethereum network or blockchain or Liko WebFlow System or any aspect thereof, or any consensus attack, or hack, or denial-of-service or other attack on the foregoing or any aspect thereof, or on the other software, networks and infrastructure that enables Liko to provide the Platform, it being understood that Liko shall use commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with accepted practices in the industries in which Liko operates, as applicable, to resume performance as soon as reasonably practicable under the circumstances.
28. MISCELLANEOUS
28.1These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Liko relating to your access to and use of the Service. These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of Liko, and Liko’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The section headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be read to have any legal effect.
28.2The Service is operated by Liko in the United States. Those who choose to access the Service from locations outside the United States do so at their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. You and Liko agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to the interpretation or construction of these Terms.
28.3Except 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.
