For information on how we collect, use, share, and process your data, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

 

Agreement to Terms

This End User License Agreement and Terms of Service ("TERMS") is a binding contract between you, an individual user or site visitor, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("user," "you," "your"), and the Siriux Foundation ("Foundation," "we," "us," "our") concerning your use of the Foundation’s services (the "Service"), including the www.Siriux.ai website and any other related media forms, channels, or mobile websites (collectively, the "Site"). Currently, the Foundation maintains and operates www.Siriux.ai as a portal for news, information, and updates about the Siriux protocol or blockchain (the "Siriux Network") and the Siriux ecosystem. For clarity, the Foundation does not control the Siriux Network, its activities, data, or applications developed by third parties, nor the validation of transactions. The Siriux Network is an open-source protocol maintained by Siriux Network validators globally.

By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these TERMS. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service or Site.

Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Site from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated by reference. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these TERMS at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the "Last updated" date of the TERMS, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review the TERMS to stay informed of updates. Your continued use of the Service after the posting of revised TERMS constitutes your acceptance of those changes.

The information provided on the Site is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Those who access the Site from other locations do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

The Service is intended for users who are at least 18 years old. By using the Site and the Service, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age or accessing the Service under the supervision of a parent or guardian and that you are legally able to enater into a contract. If you are a parent or legal guardian of a user under the age of 18 (or the age of legal majority), you agree to be fully responsible for the acts or omissions of such user in relation to the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of another person or entity, (a) all references to "you" throughout these TERMS will include that person or entity, (b) you represent that you are authorized to accept these TERMS on that person’s or entity’s behalf, and (c) in the event you or the person or entity violates these TERMS, the person or entity agrees to be responsible to us.

Please Note: The "Dispute Resolution" section of these TERMS contains an arbitration clause that requires disputes to be arbitrated on an individual basis and prohibits class action claims. It affects how disputes between you and the Foundation are resolved. Accepting these TERMS allows you to be bound by this arbitration provision. Please read it carefully.

Dispute Resolution

Please read this section carefully as it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with the Foundation and limits how you can seek relief unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration provision. Additionally, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial.

(a) No Representative Actions

You and the Foundation agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these TERMS or the Service is personal to you and the Foundation and will be resolved solely through individual action, not as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding.

(b) Arbitration of Disputes

You and the Foundation waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any other dispute arising out of or related to these TERMS and the Service, including claims related to privacy and data security (collectively, “Disputes”), resolved in court. Instead, for any Dispute you have against the Foundation, you agree to first contact the Foundation and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to operations@Siriux.foundation. The Notice must:

• Include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number;
• Describe the nature and basis of the Dispute;
• Set forth the specific relief sought.

Our notice to you will be similar. If you and the Foundation cannot reach an agreement to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days, either party may submit the Dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under limited circumstances, in court. All Disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator in Zug, Switzerland, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). The most recent version of the JAMS Rules is available on the JAMS website and is incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read them and any claim that they are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

(c) Governing Law

You and the Foundation agree that these TERMS affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any Dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court. The arbitrator may conduct only individual arbitrations and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims or preside over any type of class or representative proceeding.

(d) Confidentiality

The arbitration will allow for the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Dispute. The arbitrator, the Foundation, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments, and awards, including information gathered, prepared, and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the Dispute(s). The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality unless the law provides otherwise. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

(e) Costs of Arbitration

For any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee (up to a maximum of $250 if you are a consumer), and the Foundation will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by the Foundation, the Foundation will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and the Foundation agree that the Kanton of Zug shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

(f) Time Limit

Any Dispute must be filed within one year after the relevant claim arose; otherwise, the Dispute is permanently barred.

(g) Opt-Out Procedure

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section by mailing an opt-out notice to the Foundation at Industriestrasse 47, 6300 Zug, Switzerland. The opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out, you agree to resolve Disputes in accordance with the governing law and venue terms of these TERMS.

(h) Severability

If any portion of this Section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these TERMS; (b) severance shall have no impact on the remainder of this Section or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section; and (c) to the extent that any claims must proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. If any part of this Section is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section will be enforceable.

 

Governing Law and Venue

Any dispute arising from these TERMS and your use of the Service will be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of Switzerland. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration will be resolved in Zug, Switzerland.

 

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SIRIUX FOUNDATION ("FOUNDATION"), ITS AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, GOOD-WILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM (I) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE; (II) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF OTHER USERS OR THIRD PARTIES; (III) ANY CONTENT OBTAINED FROM THE SERVICE; AND (IV) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER OR NOT WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, AND EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

OUR MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR LOSSES OR DAMAGES THAT YOU SUFFER IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (I) THE AMOUNT PAID, IF ANY, BY YOU TO US IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE ACTION GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR (II) $100.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. TO THE EXTENT THAT IN A PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCE ANY DISCLAIMER OR LIMITATION ON DAMAGES OR LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN IS PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THEN THE FOUNDATION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO THE MAXIMUM DISCLAIMERS AND/OR LIMITATION ON DAMAGES AND LIABILITY AVAILABLE AT LAW OR IN EQUITY BY SUCH APPLICABLE LAW IN SUCH PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.

THE LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE FOUNDATION AND YOU.
