CryptoGuard Terms and Conditions
Welcome to CryptoGuard, a browser-based security extension provided by ChainGPT AI, LLC (“ChainGPT”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of CryptoGuard and all related services, software, and content (collectively, the “Service”). By installing or using CryptoGuard, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.
Important Disclaimer: CryptoGuard is a free, experimental browser extension that provides security-related information for educational purposes only. CryptoGuard does not guarantee protection from scams, hacks, or losses and should not be relied upon as a sole security solution. You are solely responsible for your actions and the safety of your assets. “Experimental” means CryptoGuard is still under development and may contain errors, bugs, or incomplete features.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By using CryptoGuard, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms. Continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of these Terms, including any future modifications. You represent that you are at least 18 years old (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction) and have the legal capacity to enter into this agreement. If you do not meet these requirements or disagree with any part of these Terms, you must cease using the Service immediately.
2. Service Overview (Informational & Non-Custodial Service)
CryptoGuard is a free, experimental browser extension aimed at enhancing security for cryptocurrency and Web3 activities. The Service provides informational alerts and insights related to crypto transactions and websites (for example, warnings about potential scams, phishing attempts, or risky smart contracts). CryptoGuard does not custody your funds, execute blockchain transactions on your behalf, or guarantee the security of any transaction or asset. All actions you take in response to CryptoGuard’s alerts are carried out by you (e.g. through your own digital wallet or browser) at your sole discretion and risk. CryptoGuard is intended for educational and informational purposes only; it is not a foolproof security solution and should be used as a supplement to, not a replacement for, your own vigilance and security practices. ChainGPT does not have a duty to monitor your transactions or wallet activity, and makes no commitment to identify or respond to any specific threat, risk, or scam.
3. Eligibility and Access
The Service is offered worldwide subject to compliance with applicable laws. It is your responsibility to ensure that your use of CryptoGuard is legal in your jurisdiction. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are not located in a country or region subject to trade sanctions, embargoes, or other legal prohibitions that would bar you from using crypto-related software. CryptoGuard is accessed via the Chrome Web Store as an extension; no separate user account or registration is required. You may use the Service anonymously, but you must have a compatible web browser and (if you choose to connect a wallet for transaction analysis) a compatible Web3 wallet. You are responsible for any Internet connection or mobile fees required to access the Service.
4. User Responsibilities and Proper Use
When using CryptoGuard, you agree to the following responsibilities and guidelines:
Personal Security: You are solely responsible for the security of your own devices, accounts, and crypto wallets. Keep your browser, extension, and wallet software up-to-date and secure. If you connect a cryptocurrency wallet to CryptoGuard for monitoring, you must safeguard your wallet credentials (private keys, seed phrases, passwords). Do not share your private keys or recovery phrases with anyone, including us – ChainGPT will never ask for them. We are not liable for any unauthorized access to your crypto accounts.
Compliance with Laws: You must use CryptoGuard in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations. You are responsible for understanding and adhering to any laws relevant to cryptocurrency or internet security in your jurisdiction. This includes, for example, financial regulations, export control laws, and data privacy laws. If your jurisdiction restricts or forbids the use of encryption, cryptocurrency, or related security tools, you must not use CryptoGuard in such ways.
Proper Use; No Malicious Activity: You agree not to misuse the Service. You will not use CryptoGuard for any unlawful, fraudulent, or harmful purpose. Prohibited activities include, but are not limited to: using the Service to engage in hacking, spreading malware or viruses, stalking or harassing others, money laundering, or any activity that violates the rights of others or any law. You also agree not to attempt to interfere with or disrupt the Service’s operation (for example, by attempting to hack or disable our extension, or by sending us malicious code).
No Reverse Engineering or Exploitation: You will not decompile, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of CryptoGuard or any part of the Service, except to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law. Furthermore, you will not use CryptoGuard to develop or distribute any competing product, and you will not exploit the Service or its outputs for commercial purposes without our prior written consent.
User Content and Data: CryptoGuard may allow you to provide certain data (for instance, connecting your wallet or submitting a suspicious address for analysis). You warrant that any information you provide is accurate and that you have the right to share it. You retain ownership of any content or data you input, and you grant ChainGPT permission to process and use that data for the purpose of providing the Service. We will handle any personal or sensitive data in accordance with our Privacy Policy. (Note: CryptoGuard is designed to work with minimal personal data; using it anonymously means we generally process technical data such as wallet addresses or URLs rather than personal identifiers.)
Results and Outputs: Any analysis, alert, or information provided by CryptoGuard (the “Output”) is for your personal use and informational benefit. You are responsible for how you use or act on this Output. Do not use outputs from CryptoGuard in any unlawful manner or in violation of any other agreements you have (for example, terms of another platform). If you choose to share or publish information derived from CryptoGuard, you are solely responsible for that content.
Failure to adhere to the above obligations may result in termination or suspension of your access to the Service (see Section 13), and could also expose you to legal consequences. You assume full responsibility for any actions you take based on the information provided by CryptoGuard.
5. Informational Purposes Only – No Financial Advice
All information, alerts, analyses, and content provided by CryptoGuard are intended for general informational purposes and do not constitute professional advice. CryptoGuard is not a financial advisor, investment advisor, or brokerage service. ChainGPT does not hold any licenses to provide financial, legal, or tax advice. Nothing on the Service is an offer, recommendation, or solicitation to buy or sell any asset, nor an endorsement of any project or website. You should not make financial decisions based solely on CryptoGuard’s alerts or analysis. Always conduct your own independent research and consider consulting with licensed professionals before making any investment or transaction decisions. Under no circumstances should any content from the Service be interpreted as financial, legal, or tax advice tailored to you. You are solely responsible for any investment, trading, or transactional decisions you make, including the evaluation of any risks involved.
6. No Fiduciary or Client Relationship
Your use of CryptoGuard does not create any fiduciary, advisory, or agency relationship between you and ChainGPT. We provide a tool, not personalized guidance. We have no fiduciary duty or other special obligations to you. Using the Service does not make ChainGPT your agent, advisor, or partner in any way. You alone are responsible for the management of your assets and security. We simply provide information and alerts based on predefined algorithms and data sources. You agree that ChainGPT is not acting as a custodian, exchange, broker, dealer, investment manager, or other intermediary for you, and no information or communication from us shall be deemed to create any trust or reliance beyond the normal expectations of an informational tool. You remain solely in control of and responsible for your digital assets at all times.
7. Assumption of Risk by User
By using CryptoGuard, you acknowledge and accept the inherent risks associated with cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, and experimental software. These risks include, but are not limited to, the following:
Volatility and Financial Loss: The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile. Asset values can fluctuate dramatically in short periods, and you may incur significant financial losses. You understand that any indications or alerts from CryptoGuard about an asset’s safety do not guarantee its value or performance.
Irreversible Transactions: Blockchain transactions (such as sending cryptocurrency) are typically irreversible. If you send funds to the wrong address or fall victim to a scam, those funds may be permanently lost. CryptoGuard’s alerts might warn of certain risks, but the decision to transact is ultimately yours and at your own risk.
Security Breaches and Hacks: Despite using security tools like CryptoGuard, there is always a risk of unauthorized access to your crypto accounts (for example, through phishing, malware, smart contract vulnerabilities, or exploits of the underlying blockchain). No software can guarantee 100% protection. You understand that CryptoGuard may not detect or prevent every cyber attack or scam, and that you could still be exposed to hacks or breaches resulting in loss of assets or personal information.
Third-Party Failures: CryptoGuard relies on various third-party services (discussed further in Section 8). There is a risk that wallet providers, blockchain networks, node operators, data feeds, or other third-party platforms could fail, be inaccurate, or be compromised. Such failures might lead to incorrect alerts, missed warnings, or an inability to use the Service. Additionally, if you choose to interact with third-party exchanges, DeFi protocols, or DApps, those services carry their own risks which are outside the scope of CryptoGuard’s protection.
Software Bugs and Experimental Technology: CryptoGuard is an evolving, experimental tool. You may encounter software bugs, false positives/negatives in alerts, downtime, or other technical issues. Beta features or new releases may be untested and could malfunction. You accept that using an experimental service means it might not perform flawlessly and could possibly contribute to confusion or errors in your decision-making if a bug occurs.
Regulatory and Legal Risks: Blockchain and cryptocurrency activities may be subject to regulatory scrutiny or may be illegal in some jurisdictions. Changes in laws or regulations can impact your ability to use certain cryptocurrencies or CryptoGuard itself. You are responsible for staying informed about and complying with any laws that apply to your crypto activities. ChainGPT does not guarantee that any particular use of CryptoGuard is permitted under any law.
You understand and agree that you assume all risks related to your use of CryptoGuard and your cryptocurrency activities. This means any loss of data, money, cryptocurrency, tokens, or any other damage that you may suffer is entirely your own responsibility. CryptoGuard is a tool to aid you, but it cannot eliminate risk. You expressly acknowledge that ChainGPT has no liability for any hacks, scams, mistakes, or losses that you may experience. You accept full responsibility for safeguarding your assets and for any actions you take based on the Service. Furthermore, you acknowledge that cryptocurrency holdings are not insured by any government or financial institution; unlike bank deposits, there is no insurance or guarantee that will reimburse you in case of loss. ChainGPT offers no insurance, guarantee, or reimbursement for any damages or losses you incur while using the Service or engaging in cryptocurrency transactions.
In summary: YOU BEAR FULL AND SOLE RESPONSIBILITY for all outcomes arising from your use of CryptoGuard – including any security breaches, scams, or financial losses.
8. Third-Party Services and Data Disclaimer
CryptoGuard interacts with various third-party platforms and data sources to provide its functionality. For example, it may connect with your chosen crypto wallet (e.g., MetaMask) for transaction monitoring, fetch data from blockchain networks or explorers, use threat intelligence feeds, or provide links to external websites for more information. ChainGPT has no control over any third-party services or content that you may encounter through CryptoGuard.
External Websites and Links: If CryptoGuard provides links or references to external websites (such as a blockchain explorer, project website, or news source), these links are provided for convenience only. We do not endorse or assume any responsibility for content on third-party sites. Visiting third-party websites is at your own risk, and you should review their terms and policies. ChainGPT is not liable for any information, products, or services on third-party websites, nor for any damages or losses arising from your use of them.
Third-Party APIs and Data Providers: CryptoGuard may rely on data from third-party APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) such as blockchain node providers, pricing data aggregators, security databases, or other external data services. We do not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or timeliness of third-party data. The Service’s alerts and analyses are only as good as the data received. If a data provider has an outage or provides incorrect information, CryptoGuard’s output may be incomplete or inaccurate. ChainGPT is not responsible for errors or omissions in information provided by third parties.
Third-Party Software & Wallets: You may use CryptoGuard in conjunction with third-party software, such as web browsers, cryptocurrency wallets, or other extensions. Those products are governed by their own terms and privacy policies. ChainGPT is not responsible for any issues caused by third-party software or wallet providers. For example, if your wallet application malfunctions or has a security flaw, that is outside the scope of our Service and is not our responsibility.
No Third-Party Liability: ChainGPT shall not be held liable for any acts, failures, or omissions of any third party that affect your use of CryptoGuard. This includes, but is not limited to, losses or damages resulting from network congestion, blockchain protocol errors, forks, third-party hacks, or any other issues attributable to third parties.
Integration Permissions: If the Service ever asks for permissions to access other applications or data (for example, Chrome permissions to read certain websites you visit in order to scan for threats), you understand that granting such permission may enable the extension to interact with data from those third-party sources. We will use such permissions solely to provide the Service’s intended functionality and in accordance with our Privacy Policy. However, you should only grant permissions you are comfortable with, and you can revoke permissions by uninstalling or managing the extension settings at any time.
In using CryptoGuard, you agree that any reliance on third-party content or materials accessed through our Service is at your own risk. We strongly encourage you to independently verify important information and to use trusted devices and networks. ChainGPT disclaims all liability for losses or damages arising from content or services that are not under our direct control.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
CryptoGuard is provided to you “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE,” without any representations or warranties of any kind, either express or implied. ChainGPT makes no guarantees or warranties about the accuracy, reliability, completeness, or usefulness of the Service or any results obtained through it. Specifically:
No Guarantee of Correctness or Performance: We do not warrant that the alerts or information provided by CryptoGuard are correct, up-to-date, or exhaustive. There may be occasions where CryptoGuard fails to identify a threat, incorrectly flags safe content as risky, or otherwise does not perform as expected. We do not guarantee that the Service will detect every scam, phishing attempt, malware, or security vulnerability. Use your own best judgment in all cases.
Uptime and Availability: We do not warrant that the Service will be available at all times, uninterrupted, or error-free. CryptoGuard’s operation may be affected by technical issues, maintenance, updates, or factors outside our control (such as internet disruptions or third-party outages). Occasional downtime or errors may occur. You agree that such interruptions are an inherent risk of using online services.
Quality and Fitness: To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties and conditions, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your specific needs or expectations, nor that it will operate in combination with any particular hardware, software, or system. It is your responsibility to determine if CryptoGuard suits your requirements.
Security and Virus Disclaimer: While CryptoGuard is intended to enhance your security, we do not warrant that the Service itself is immune from errors or vulnerabilities. We cannot guarantee that the Service or any data transmitted via the Service will be free of viruses, malware, spyware, or other harmful components. You are responsible for maintaining appropriate security software on your devices to protect against such threats.
Informational Accuracy: Any information or content presented by CryptoGuard (such as descriptions of tokens, risk scores, or security tips) is provided without warranty of any kind. ChainGPT does not guarantee the factual accuracy or completeness of any information obtained through the Service. All information is provided on a good-faith, best-effort basis, and may be based on algorithms or heuristics that have limitations.
No Warranty for Third-Party Content: As noted in Section 8, any third-party content or services accessible through CryptoGuard are not warranted or supported by ChainGPT. We provide no assurances for products or information provided by others.
In summary, use CryptoGuard at your own risk. ChainGPT disclaims any and all warranties or conditions of any kind, express or implied, with respect to the Service and your use of it. Nothing in the Service or these Terms constitutes a guarantee of any outcome or result. If applicable law does not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, then any required warranty is limited to the minimum duration and extent permitted.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, ChainGPT and its affiliates, officers, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any damages arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) CryptoGuard or any content or services provided through it. This limitation of liability applies regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise) and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Specifically, ChainGPT will not be liable for:
Indirect or Consequential Losses: Any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages of any kind. This includes, without limitation, damages for lost profits, lost revenue, lost or corrupted data, business interruption, loss of goodwill, or the cost of procurement of substitute services.
Direct Financial Loss: Any direct financial losses related to cryptocurrency or digital assets, including losses due to market fluctuations, scams, theft, or mistaken transactions. For example, if you lose funds in a hack or by acting on an incorrect alert, ChainGPT is not responsible for reimbursing you.
Security Breach or Scam Consequences: Any harm resulting from unauthorized access to your accounts, security breaches, or fraudulent activities (such as phishing or malware attacks), even if CryptoGuard did not detect or warn against them. You acknowledge that ultimate responsibility for your security lies with you, and you cannot hold ChainGPT liable for criminal acts of third parties.
Use of Third-Party Services: Any damages or harm arising from your use of third-party products or services in connection with CryptoGuard (e.g., issues caused by your crypto wallet, exchange, or a website you visited). We do not control those services and thus have no liability for their failures.
Data Loss or System Damage: Any damage to your computer system, phone, other device, or loss of data that results from your use of the Service or downloading of any content via the Service. You are responsible for backing up your data and using adequate security measures on your devices.
Personal Injury: As CryptoGuard is software, personal injury is unlikely; however, we specifically note that we are not liable for any personal injury or property damage that might indirectly occur in connection with use of the Service (for instance, due to stress or other issues).
If, notwithstanding the above, ChainGPT is found liable to you for any damage or loss arising out of your use of the Service or these Terms, our total cumulative liability to you shall in no event exceed the amount of $100 USD (one hundred U.S. dollars). Because the Service is provided free of charge, this amount reflects an agreed reasonable allocation of risk. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in such jurisdictions, our liability will be limited to the smallest amount permitted by law.
Nothing in these Terms shall operate to limit or exclude any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law. In particular, this limitation of liability does not exclude (where applicable law so prohibits) our liability for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or personal injury or death caused by our negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
By using CryptoGuard, you understand and agree that ChainGPT will not be liable for any losses or damages you may suffer, and that your sole and exclusive remedy, if you are dissatisfied with the Service or these Terms, is to stop using CryptoGuard. Some jurisdictions may provide you additional consumer rights; however, to the extent permitted, you waive any additional rights or remedies that are not explicitly set forth herein.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ChainGPT AI, LLC and its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) that arise out of or relate to:
Your Use of the Service: Any use or misuse of CryptoGuard by you or through your browser/device. This includes any content you input into the Service or actions you take based on information from the Service.
Violation of These Terms: Your breach of any provision of these Terms or any other agreement with ChainGPT.
Violation of Law or Rights: Your violation of any applicable law or regulation, or the infringement of any rights of a third party (such as intellectual property, privacy, or other rights) by you while using CryptoGuard.
Fraud or Misconduct: Any fraud, intentional misconduct, or gross negligence committed by you in connection with your use of CryptoGuard.
We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations). In such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim and you must not settle any such claim without our prior written consent. Your indemnification obligation will survive any termination of these Terms and your use of the Service.
12. Dispute Resolution (Arbitration and Class Action Waiver)
Please read this section carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with ChainGPT and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.
12.1. Mandatory Arbitration: You and ChainGPT agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of CryptoGuard shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except as expressly provided below. This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and applies regardless of whether a claim is based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory. By agreeing to these Terms, you and ChainGPT are each waiving the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action or class arbitration.
12.2. Arbitration Procedure: The arbitration will be administered by a neutral arbitration body to be mutually agreed upon (for example, the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or a similar reputable arbitral institution). If the parties cannot agree on an arbitration forum, the arbitration shall be conducted by a single independent arbitrator under the rules of the AAA applicable to consumer disputes (or equivalent rules of another arbitration body, as mutually agreed). Arbitration shall take place in English, and the seat or legal place of arbitration shall be Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. You may choose to participate in the arbitration remotely, such as via videoconference or telephone, to the extent allowed by the chosen arbitration rules. The arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues of arbitrability, jurisdiction, and the arbitrator’s own jurisdiction, and will issue a reasoned written decision. The arbitrator can award any individual relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award under law, but may not award relief exceeding or contravening the limitations and exclusions of liability in these Terms.
12.3. Costs of Arbitration: Each party will initially bear its own costs of arbitration, including attorneys’ fees, and will equally share the arbitrator’s fees and any administrative costs. However, the arbitrator has the authority to award the prevailing party its arbitration costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, in accordance with applicable law or the arbitration rules. Also, if the arbitration forum’s rules or applicable law require us to bear a greater portion of fees in order for this arbitration agreement to be enforceable, ChainGPT will comply with those requirements (for example, some forums cap the consumer’s filing fee at a certain amount). Apart from such adjustments, each party remains responsible for its own expenses.
12.4. Exceptions to Arbitration: Notwithstanding the above, either party may choose to pursue enforcement actions, seek provisional remedies, or obtain injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent imminent or ongoing infringement of intellectual property rights or unauthorized access to the Service. In addition, either party retains the right to seek relief in small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction, as an alternative to arbitration.
12.5. Class Action Waiver: You and ChainGPT agree that all claims and disputes must be brought on an individual basis and not on a class, consolidated, or representative basis. YOU MAY ONLY RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH CHAINGPT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The arbitrator is not authorized to combine or aggregate the claims of multiple individuals or parties, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. By entering into this agreement, you waive any right to participate in a class-action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against ChainGPT.
12.6. Opt-Out Right: We believe arbitration is beneficial for both parties, but if you do not wish to agree to arbitration and class waiver, you have the right to opt out. You may opt out of the provisions of this Section 12 by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to legal@chaingpt.org or to the mailing address listed in our Contact section. This notice must be sent within 30 days of first installing or using CryptoGuard or within 30 days of any material change to this arbitration section. Your notice must include your name (or username, if applicable) and an unequivocal statement that you opt out of the arbitration agreement. If you opt out of arbitration, the other parts of these Terms (including the class action waiver) will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this arbitration agreement will not adversely affect your relationship with or use of CryptoGuard.
12.7. Severability of Arbitration Provisions: If any portion of this Section 12 (Dispute Resolution) is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect, provided that if the provision concerning class action waiver (Section 12.5) is found to be unenforceable, then this entire Section 12 shall be null and void. In such case, you and ChainGPT agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 14 (Governing Law & Jurisdiction) shall govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms, and you agree to waive, and not to assert, any objection to such jurisdiction or venue, to the extent such a waiver is allowed by law.
By agreeing to these Terms, you expressly acknowledge that you have read and understand this arbitration agreement and class action waiver, and you understand that you are giving up the right to a trial in court (with or without a jury) and the right to participate in a class action or similar proceeding. This Section shall survive any termination of the Terms or your use of the Service.
13. Modifications, Suspension and Termination
13.1. Changes to the Service: ChainGPT reserves the right to modify, update, or discontinue CryptoGuard or any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We are constantly improving our products, and that means features may change or be removed. We do not guarantee that any specific feature or content will always be available. For example, we may release updates that change how alerts work, or we might shut down certain functionalities if they become impractical or obsolete. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service. If you are dissatisfied with any changes to CryptoGuard, your only remedy is to stop using the Service.
13.2. Changes to Terms: We may also revise or update these Terms from time to time. If we make a material change, we will use reasonable means to notify users (for example, by posting the updated Terms on our website or via the Chrome Web Store page). The “Last Updated” date at the top will indicate when the latest changes were made. It is your responsibility to review the Terms periodically. By continuing to use CryptoGuard after new Terms are posted, you agree to the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must uninstall or stop using CryptoGuard.
13.3. Suspension or Termination by ChainGPT: We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service (or certain features of the Service) at any time, for any reason, at our sole discretion. This includes, without limitation, the right to terminate or suspend the Service for users who violate these Terms or who pose a security or legal risk to us or other users. Because CryptoGuard generally does not require account registration, suspension may entail disabling your access to updates or entirely discontinuing the Service. In serious cases (such as misuse of the Service for unlawful purposes), we may also cooperate with law enforcement or other authorities as appropriate.
13.4. Termination by You: You may stop using CryptoGuard at any time. If you wish to completely terminate your use, you can remove the extension from your browser. Because we do not typically have user accounts for CryptoGuard, there is no account deletion necessary beyond uninstalling the extension. If you have any concerns about data that might be stored as a result of your use, please consult our Privacy Policy or contact us for assistance.
13.5. Effects of Termination: Upon any termination of these Terms or your access to the Service, all licenses and rights granted to you in these Terms will immediately cease. The following provisions will survive termination of your use of the Service: any provisions regarding ownership of intellectual property, disclaimers of warranties, limitations of liability, dispute resolution, and any other terms which by their nature should survive termination.
13.6. No Refunds: Since CryptoGuard is provided free of charge, you are not entitled to any refund. In the event that we introduce paid features or premium plans in the future, those would be governed by separate payment terms. However, as a general principle, ChainGPT will not be liable to provide any refunds or credits for any discontinuation or modification of the Service, or for any unused services, subscriptions, or features, to the maximum extent permitted by law. If you have prepaid for any service and we terminate such service without cause before the end of a paid term, we will provide a pro-rata refund for the remaining unused term, unless stated otherwise in additional terms for that service. Outside of such a scenario, no refunds will be issued.
14. Miscellaneous (General Provisions)
14.1. Governing Law: Except to the extent overridden by Section 12 (Arbitration), these Terms and any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service shall be governed in all respects by the laws of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, without regard to its conflict of law principles. However, in acknowledging the global availability of CryptoGuard, we note that you may have mandatory consumer protection rights under the laws of your country of residence; nothing in these Terms is meant to override those rights where applicable by law. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than arbitration, or if any claim is brought to enforce an arbitration award, such action shall be brought exclusively in the courts of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (or the courts of the jurisdiction in which Saint Vincent and the Grenadines is located, as appropriate). You and ChainGPT consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and waive any objections to venue in those courts, unless such consent is prohibited by applicable law.
14.2. International Use: ChainGPT makes no representation that the Service is appropriate or available for use in all locations. Those who access or use CryptoGuard from jurisdictions prohibiting such use do so at their own risk and are responsible for compliance with local laws. You may not use or export any part of the Service in violation of U.A.E. export laws or other applicable regulations.
14.3. Ownership and Intellectual Property: ChainGPT (and its licensors, if any) retains all right, title, and interest in and to the CryptoGuard software and Service, including all related intellectual property rights. The Terms do not grant you any ownership of the Service or the content or information made available through the Service. You are only granted a limited, revocable license to use CryptoGuard as per these Terms. All ChainGPT names, logos, and product names are our trademarks (or of our affiliates/partners), and you agree not to use them without our prior written consent.
14.4. Relationship of Parties: Nothing in these Terms shall be deemed to create a partnership, joint venture, employment, or agency relationship between you and ChainGPT. We are independent parties. You have no authority to assume or create any obligation for or on behalf of ChainGPT, and vice versa.
14.5. Entire Agreement: These Terms (along with our Privacy Policy and any other guidelines or policies incorporated by reference) constitute the entire agreement between you and ChainGPT regarding your use of CryptoGuard. They supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, or understandings between us relating to the subject matter. Any additional or different terms you communicate (for example, in an email or support request) are void and will have no effect unless expressly agreed in writing by an authorized representative of ChainGPT.
14.6. Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be deemed modified to the least degree necessary to remedy the invalidity while retaining as much of the intent of the original provision as possible.
14.7. No Waiver: No failure or delay by ChainGPT in exercising any right, power, or privilege under these Terms shall operate as a waiver thereof. A waiver of any provision must be in writing and signed by our authorized representative to be effective. Our failure to enforce any part of these Terms is not a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part.
14.8. Assignment: You may not assign or transfer any rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. Any attempted assignment without consent is void. ChainGPT may freely assign or transfer these Terms (in whole or in part) as part of a merger, acquisition, asset sale, or other corporate reorganization, or by operation of law, or otherwise at our discretion.
14.9. No Third-Party Beneficiaries: These Terms are intended for the benefit of you and ChainGPT, and no other person or entity shall be a third-party beneficiary of these Terms.
14.10. Force Majeure: ChainGPT shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform as required by these Terms due to events outside our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil disturbances, labor shortages or disputes, electrical or telecommunications outages, blockchain network congestion or failures, or government actions.
14.11. Contact and Notices: For inquiries or to send notices regarding these Terms or the Service, you may contact ChainGPT at the following:
