Terms and Conditions<\/span><\/p>\n

Modified: October 1, 2021<\/span><\/p>\n

These Terms and Conditions constitute the User Agreement and Terms of Service (hereafter the \u201cTerms & Conditions\u201d) between GoldKey Games (referred to as \u201cGKGC\u201d or the \u201cSite\u201d) and any person, customer, or entity (referred as the \u201cUser\u201d) utilizing the website, GKGC Blockchain and any products, features and services provided thereon (\u201cGKGC Services\u201d). These Terms & Conditions do not create any agency, partnership, or joint venture between GKGC and User. By signing up for an account through GKGC or any associated websites, APIs, or mobile applications, the User has read and consents to the Terms & Conditions. The User also agrees to GKGC\u2019s Privacy Policy and Code of Conduct. These Terms & Conditions may be amended and updated from time to time at the sole discretion of GKGC. Revised versions will be considered effective as of the date and time posted on the GKGC Site.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. GKGC SERVICES.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    GKGC is a decentralized distributed application on a blockchain network, using smart contracts (each a \u201cSmart Contract\u201d) to enable its Users to own, buy, sell, transfer, and share unique digital rewards that can be visualized on the GKGC site through the GKGC App.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. GKGC Game Node. GKGC Game Node is a computer software and hardware system connected to GKGC. The GKGC Game Node supports blockchain video games by maintaining the cryptography and confirming transactions on the GKGC Blockchain through the GKGC App. Used herein, \u201cGKGC Game Node\u201d may represent either the node itself of a license the User obtains to run said node.\u00a0 The GKGC Game Nodes when combined form the \u201cGKGC Game Node Network\u201d.<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. GKGC Blockchain. The GKGC Blockchain allows each User to store items, characters, digital rewards, and other attributes on the GKGC Blockchain public ledger that allows for decentralized, immutable record of ownership. Each User owns the non-fungible token (an \u201cNFT\u201d) for any of the in-game items on the GKGC Blockchain. When a User purchases, earns, or receives any NFT or digital reward the Smart Contract process, the User owns completely and outright the NFT and\/or digital reward.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. GKGC Reward. Each User of any game on the GKGC Blockchain or the Site or any game contained on the Site or associated websites, and associated GKGC Game Node, may be able to earn or receive the GKGC Reward. The \u201cGKGC Reward\u201d consists of a representation of GKGC token, or other game tokens and NFTs, reflected on the GKGC Blockchain and\/or GKGC App and the Site, which may or may not be bridged to other blockchains (including but not limited to Ethereum) through a minting process solely at the option and action of the User.\u00a0 When referencing the NFTs on the platform themselves in the singular and not specifically as a part of the GKGC Reward, same shall be referred to herein as \u201cPlatform Asset.\u201d The GKGC Reward is a digital reward and not a Security Token.\u00a0 The GKGC Reward is not being offered to investors and there is no Initial Coin Offering (ICO) to promote the GKGC Reward. Like BTC (which is the digital reward generated from the Bitcoin blockchain), the GKGC reward is created through a unique blockchain protocol. Each User that participates in the GKGC Blockchain protocol shall receive 100% of the User\u2019s allocated GKGC Reward and any other digital reward or NFT, which is deposited in the User\u2019s GKGC App. The GKGC Reward, any NFT, and any other digital reward may reside solely within the GKGC Blockchain, and may or may not have value.\u00a0 GKGC cannot, and does not, control whether any of the GKGC Reward, any NFT, and any other digital reward has monetary value on any other blockchain.\u00a0 On the GKGC Blockchain, the Site, or any associated website, neither the GKGC Reward nor NFT nor other digital reward may be exchanged for currency.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      1.5 GKGC App<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.1. GKGC will provide each User with a GKGC App. GKGC will never take custody or control over any NFT or digital reward stored in a User\u2019s GKGC App. The GKGC App does not store, send or receive any NFT or reward, but such transactions occur directly on the GKGC Blockchain or other supported blockchains. Instead of the GKGC App, the User may use any compatible digital app or wallet provided by a third party company that safely connects to the GKGC Blockchain. A User may be able to use the GKGC App or other compatible wallet to send and receive any NFT or digital reward with other users of the GKGC Blockchain. GKGC does not offer any User the ability to exchange one form of currency for any other form of currency (fiat or digital). GKGC App is not a custodian, exchange or money transmitter.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.2. When a User creates a GKGC App, the GKGC Blockchain software generates a cryptographic private key and public key pair that the User must use to send and receive any NFT or digital reward supported on the GKGC Blockchain. The User is solely responsible for storing, outside of GKGC\u2019s Services, a backup of any User\u2019s GKGC App, private key(s), or transaction information that the User maintains in the GKGC App or otherwise with the GKGC Services. If the User does not backup the GKGC App, the User may not be able to access the GKGC in the event that GKGC discontinues some or all of the GKGC Services.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.3. In order for a transaction to be validated on the GKGC Blockchain, any GKGC transaction through the GKGC App must be confirmed and recorded in the distributed ledger associated with the GKGC Blockchain. The GKGC Blockchain is a decentralized, peer-to-peer network supported by the users of the GKGC Blockchain, which is not owned, controlled or operated by GKGC.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.4. GKGC has no control over any NFT or digital reward (including the GKGC Reward) generated through the GKGC Blockchain or the GKGC App or Site, and cannot ensure that any transaction details a User submits via the GKGC Services and GKGC App or Site will be confirmed or processed on the GKGC Blockchain. The User agrees and understands that the transaction details submitted by the User via the GKGC Services and GKGC App may not be completed or may be delayed by the GKGC Blockchain or any supporting blockchain used to process the transaction. GKGC does not guarantee that the GKGC App can transfer title or right in any NFT or digital reward, and GKGC makes no warranties of title of any kind. Once transaction details have been submitted to the GKGC Blockchain, GKGC cannot assist the User to cancel or otherwise modify such transaction or details.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.5. In the event of a fork of the GKGC Blockchain or any other supported blockchain, GKGC may not be able to support the User\u2019s activity related to GKGC or any other supported NFT or reward. The User agrees and understands that in the event of a fork of the GKGC Blockchain, any transaction associated with the GKGC App or GKGC Services may not be completed, may be partially completed, incorrectly completed, or substantially delayed. GKGC is not responsible for any loss incurred by any User caused in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by a fork of the GKGC Blockchain.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.6. With respect to the GKGC App, GKGC does not receive or store a User\u2019s GKGC App password, or any keys, network addresses or transaction history. GKGC cannot assist any User with GKGC App password retrieval. The User is solely responsible for remembering, storing and keeping secret the User\u2019s GKGC App PIN (password), keys and address. Any NFT or digital reward a User has stored within its GKGC App may become inaccessible if the User does not know or keep secret its GKGC App keys and PIN. Any third party with knowledge of one or more of a User\u2019s credentials (including, without limitation, a backup phrase, App identifier, PIN, or keys) can dispose of the NFT or digital rewards in the User\u2019s GKGC App.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.7. GKGC does not currently charge a fee for the GKGC App, receiving, sending, or storing GKGC. However, GKGC reserves the right to do so in the future, and in such case any applicable fees will be displayed prior to the User incurring such fee. Notwithstanding, the GKGC Blockchain may have Blockchain Transaction Fees required to transact NFT or digital reward transactions through the GKGC Blockchain. GKGC may attempt to calculate for the User any Blockchain Transactions Fees, though such calculation may be inaccurate or excessive. The User may select a greater or lesser fee, and the User is solely responsible for paying any Blockchain Transaction Fees required on the GKGC Blockchain. GKGC will neither advance nor fund any Blockchain Transaction Fee on any User\u2019s behalf, nor be responsible for any excess or insufficient fee calculation.<\/span><\/p>\n

      1.5.8.\u00a0 From time to time, there may be programs in place to allow User to receive a reward, in the form of GKGC Reward, NFT, or otherwise, based on actions taken by the User, whether it be by referral or other program in place at the time (\u201cAdditional Rewards\u201d).\u00a0 User understands that GKGC makes no representations or warrants regarding the Additional Rewards.\u00a0 Notwithstanding or limiting the foregoing, GKGC further makes no representations or warrants surrounding the operation of any GKGC Services or that said GKGC Services\/Additional Rewards will be error-free or uninterrupted.\u00a0 User accepts the sole responsibility for taking any and all actions to obtain any Additional Rewards, and holds GKGC harmless for any opportunity cost or losses that occur as a result of the non-receipt of anticipated Additional Rewards, monetary or otherwise.<\/span><\/p>\n

The User is responsible for satisfying any such fee(s). The User should note that any such fees may significantly reduce the User\u2019s rewards and therefore the User is responsible for managing the selection, use, rate and frequency of their receipt of rewards to any such Third-Party Fees.<\/span><\/p>\n

        2.7. Taxes.<\/span><\/p>\n

        The User is responsible for any taxes, and the User will pay for GKGC Services without any reduction for taxes. If the User is required by law to withhold any taxes from its payments to GKGC, the User must provide GKGC with an official tax receipt or other qualified documentation to support such withholding, including value added tax (\u201cVAT\u201d), if applicable. The User will be liable to pay (or reimburse GKGC) for any taxes, interest, penalties or fines which may arise from any mis-declaration made by the User. The User shall pay GKGC for all taxes and governmental fees GKGC is required to collect or pay upon sale or delivery of GKGC Services.<\/span><\/p>\n

              5.4. Community and Decentralized Innovation. The GKGC Blockchain invites any person or entity throughout the world to contribute to the GKGC Blockchain, including coders, application developers, marketers, advertisers, and service and maintenance providers. Accepted amendments, updates, and innovation from individuals or groups of the GKGC Blockchain community may be rewarded from the GKGC Blockchain rewards.<\/span><\/p>\n

              1. PUBLICITY<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                The User is permitted to state publicly that it is a customer or user of GKGC, consistent with any Trademark Guidelines which may be adopted by GKGC from time to time. The User agrees to abide by the Privacy Policy and Code of Conduct of GKGC.<\/span><\/p>\n

                  \n
                1. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  Each party represents and warrants that: (i) it has full power and authority to enter into these Terms & Conditions; and (ii) it will comply with all laws and regulations applicable to its provision or use of GKGC Services. USER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT USER DOES NOT RESIDE IN ANY REGION THAT EXPLICITLY BANS THE USE OF LOOT BOXES IN GAMES IN ACCORDANCE WITH GAMBLING LAWS.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  1. DISCLOSURES & RISKS<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                    8.1 Notification. GKGC notifies each User of certain disclosures and risks associated with blockchain NFT and digital rewards and their associated technology and protocols. GKGC Services are not an investment product, and no action, notice, communication by any means, or omission by GKGC shall be understood or interpreted as such. GKGC has no influence whatsoever on the GKGC Blockchain, the transactions and consensus protocols, or the NFTs or digital rewards, including the GKGC Reward. Ownership of a GKGC App or Game Node or the use of GKGC Services does not represent or constitute any ownership right or stake, share or security, debt or equivalent right, or any right to receive any future revenue or form of participation in or relating to any blockchain or digital reward, including the GKGC Blockchain or GKGC Reward.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    8.2 Digital Rewards. Digital rewards are not considered legal tender, are not issued or backed by any government, and have fewer regulatory protections than traditional currency. Moreover, digital rewards are not insured against theft or loss by any insurance corporation or any investor protection, including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    8.3 Market Risk. The value of NFTs and digital rewards are derived from supply and demand in the global marketplace, which can rise or fall independent of any government currency. Holding NFTs and digital rewards carries exchange rate and other types of risk. The value of NFTs and digital rewards may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange traditional government currency for digital rewards, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of a particular digital reward should the market disappear. The volatility and unpredictability of the price and value of NFTs and digital rewards, relative to government currency, may result in significant loss over a short period of time. GKGC cannot guarantee or warrant the value of any NFT, digital reward or blockchain, including the GKGC Blockchain and GKGC Reward, and explicitly warns the User that that there is no reason to believe that any NFT or blockchain reward will increase in value, and that they may hold no value, decrease in value, or entirely lose value.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    8.4. Regulatory Risk. Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of virtual NFTs and blockchain rewards.\u00a0 The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, digital assets and blockchain technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether governmental authorities will regulate such technologies. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether any governmental authority may make changes to existing laws, regulations and\/or rules that will affect cryptographic tokens, digital assets, blockchain technology and its applications.\u00a0 Such changes could negatively impact the GKGC Services in various ways, including, for example, through a determination that any of the above are regulated financial instruments that require registration. GKGC may cease any distribution of any of the above, the development of the GoldKey Games platform or cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that governmental actions make it unlawful or commercially undesirable to continue to do so.\u00a0 The industry in which GKGC operates is new, and may be subject to heightened oversight and scrutiny, including investigations or enforcement actions. There can be no assurance that governmental, quasi-governmental, regulatory or other similar types of (including banking) authorities will not examine the operations of GKGC and\/or pursue enforcement actions against GKGC. Such governmental activities may or may not be the result of targeting GKGC in particular. All of this may subject GKGC to judgments, settlements, fines or penalties, or cause GKGC to restructure its operations and activities or to cease offering certain products or services, all of which could harm GKGC\u2019s reputation or lead to higher operational costs, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on the GKGC Services.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    8.5 Technology Risk. Virtual NFT and digital reward transactions may be irreversible and losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable. Some virtual transactions are deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which may not necessarily be the date or time the user initiated the transaction. The nature of such virtual transactions may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyber-attacks.<\/span><\/p>\n

                    8.6 Changes to GKGC Game Node Network.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

                    GKGC and User recognize that from time to time amendments will be made to the GKGC Game Node Network.\u00a0 GKGC and User both specifically agree that GKGC will, from time to time, present the GKGC Game Node Network with proposed amendments (the \u201cProposed Amendments”) that the Node Network will then vote on whether to implement or not (the \u201cGovernance Vote\u201d).\u00a0 The User understands that the Proposed Amendments will be made at the discretion of GKGC, and GKGC owes the User no duty or obligation to make proposals in its best interests.\u00a0 The User specifically understands that there may come a time when GKGC proposes an amendment that is not in or in direct opposition to the User\u2019s best interests, financial or otherwise (including, but not limited to a change in the distribution calculation), and the User has no legal recourse against GKGC should any Proposed Amendment be approved and implemented through the Governance Vote.\u00a0 The User\u2019s only recourse is to vote against said Proposed Amendment.\u00a0 GKGC and the User both agree that one such Proposed Amendment may be to change the specifications, including, but not limited to the internet connection, Random Access Memory, Central Processing Unit requirements, extra space, and any other requirements needed to run the Nodes (the \u201cSpecifications\u201d).\u00a0 GKGC and User further agree that while the Specifications may be minimal on the effective date of this Agreement, this is subject to change through the Proposed Amendment and the Governance Vote.\u00a0 While GKGC does represent and covenant that the GKGC Game Node will always be able to be run using the current specifications, GKGC does not and cannot represent or covenant that any rewards earned (financial or otherwise) for doing so are not subject to change.<\/span><\/p>\n

                        TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER GKGC NOR ITS AFFILIATES OR SUPPLIERS, MAY BE HELD LIABLE UNDER THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS FOR MORE THAN THE AMOUNT PAID BY THE USER TO GKGC UNDER THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS FOR THE 12 MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE DATE THE CLAIM AROSE, MINUS ANY REWARDS GENERATED OR RECEIVED BY THE USER AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF GKGC SERVICES.<\/span><\/p>\n

                          \n
                        1. INDEMNIFICATION<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                          Unless prohibited by applicable law, the User will defend and indemnify GKGC and its Affiliates against any settlement amounts approved by the User and damages and costs finally awarded against the User and its affiliates by a court of competent jurisdiction in any formal legal proceeding filed by an unaffiliated third party before a court or government tribunal (including any appellate proceeding) to the extent arising from the User\u2019s use of GKGC Services.<\/span><\/p>\n

                            \n
                          1. MISCELLANEOUS.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                            12.1. Assignment.<\/span><\/p>\n

                            The User will not assign or otherwise transfer the User\u2019s rights and obligations under these Terms & Conditions, without the prior written consent of GKGC, which may be unreasonably withheld. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this section will be void. At any time and without the need for User\u2019s consent, GKGC may assign any obligation, right and these Terms & Conditions. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms & Conditions will be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. The User may not merge these Terms & Conditions with any other agreements with which GKGC may be a party.<\/span><\/p>\n

Notwithstanding the foregoing GKGC and the User agree that GKGC may bring suit in any court of law to enjoin infringement or other misuse of GKGC\u2019s intellectual property rights. The User and GKGC consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts. CLASS ACTION WAIVER: TO THE EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN A PARTY\u2019S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING (COLLECTIVELY \u201cCLASS ACTION WAIVER\u201d). THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON\u2019S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY CLASS ARBITRATION. USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, EACH PARTY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.<\/span><\/p>\n

Force Majeure events include, but are not limited to, upgrades to the validation rules of a given blockchain (e.g., a \u201chard fork\u201d or \u201csoft fork\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n

                            12.5. Language.<\/span><\/p>\n
