6.3. Gas Fees Blockchain transactions require network fees ("gas fees") paid in the native cryptocurrency of the respective network (ETH for Ethereum, MATIC/POL for Polygon). Gas fees are determined by network conditions and are paid directly to blockchain validators — Bindaro Platform Operator does not receive any portion of gas fees.
6.4. Transaction Finality Blockchain transactions are irreversible once confirmed on the network. Bindaro Platform Operator cannot reverse, cancel, or modify any on-chain transaction after it has been confirmed. You are responsible for verifying all transaction details before confirming.

6.6. Smart Contract Risks Marketplace transactions are facilitated by smart contracts. While we take reasonable steps to ensure the security of our smart contracts (including auditing), smart contracts may contain vulnerabilities. Bindaro Platform Operator is not liable for losses resulting from smart contract exploits, bugs, or vulnerabilities.
07
7.1. Nature of NFTs NFTs are cryptographic tokens recorded on a blockchain that represent a unique entry in a distributed ledger. Purchasing or owning an NFT does not necessarily grant you intellectual property rights (such as copyright) to the underlying digital content, unless explicitly stated by the NFT creator.
7.2. Ownership Ownership of an NFT is determined solely by the records on the applicable blockchain network. Bindaro displays NFT ownership based on on-chain data but does not adjudicate ownership disputes.
7.3. No Guarantee of Value NFTs are speculative digital assets. Bindaro Platform Operator makes no representations or warranties regarding: • The current or future value of any NFT • The liquidity or marketability of any NFT • The authenticity or originality of the underlying content • The continued existence or accessibility of any off-chain metadata or media
7.4. Content Risks NFTs may reference off-chain media (images, videos, metadata) hosted on third-party services. Bindaro Platform Operator is not responsible for the availability, integrity, or accuracy of off-chain content. If a third-party hosting service goes offline, the associated media may become inaccessible even though the NFT token remains on-chain.
7.5. Regulatory Uncertainty The regulatory status of NFTs and digital assets varies by jurisdiction and is subject to change. You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with applicable laws and regulations in your jurisdiction regarding the acquisition, ownership, and transfer of NFTs and digital assets.
08
8.1. Informational Purposes Only All AI-generated analytics, insights, recommendations, and valuations provided by the Bindaro platform are for informational purposes only. They do not constitute financial advice, investment advice, trading recommendations, or any other form of professional advice.
8.2. No Guarantees AI outputs are generated by Qwen3 machine learning models (Apache 2.0 licensed) that analyze publicly available market data. While we strive for accuracy, Bindaro Platform Operator does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of any AI-generated output. Specifically:
•
Rarity scores are based on trait frequency analysis and may not reflect perceived or market-determined rarity.
•
Price opportunity signals (BUY/HOLD/AVOID) are statistical assessments, not predictions of future price movements.
•
Portfolio valuations are estimates based on available data and may differ from actual market values.
•
Recommendations are algorithmically generated and may not account for all relevant factors.
8.3. Your Responsibility You are solely responsible for your own investment, trading, and collecting decisions. You should conduct your own research and, if appropriate, seek independent professional advice before making any financial decisions based on information provided by the platform.
8.4. Model Limitations AI models may produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading outputs. Models may reflect biases present in training data. Past market data does not predict future performance. Bindaro Platform Operator disclaims all liability for losses or damages arising from reliance on AI-generated outputs.
8.5. No Automated Decision-Making AI analytics on the platform are advisory only and do not constitute automated decision-making within the meaning of Art. 22 GDPR. No platform feature restricts access, alters pricing, or otherwise significantly affects users based solely on AI-generated outputs.
09
9.1. Listing NFTs To list an NFT for sale on the Bindaro marketplace, you must: • Own the NFT (as verified by on-chain records) or have authorization to sell it • Set a listing price in a supported currency (ETH, WETH, or USDC) • Approve the marketplace smart contract to transfer the NFT upon sale • Provide accurate listing information
9.2.

9.4. Prohibited Listings You may not list or sell NFTs that: • You do not own or are not authorized to sell • Infringe on intellectual property rights of third parties • Contain illegal, obscene, or harmful content • Were created through fraudulent means (e.g., counterfeit collections) • Are subject to legal disputes, liens, or encumbrances
9.5. Dispute Resolution Between Users Bindaro Platform Operator is a platform provider and does not act as a party to marketplace transactions between users.

After a prior warning, Bindaro Platform Operator may, for a reasonable period, stop handling reports from a person who frequently submits manifestly unfounded reports.

13
13.1. Disclaimer of Warranties TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BINDARO PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY.

13.2. Limitation of Liability TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BINDARO PLATFORM OPERATOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: • Loss of profits, revenue, or data • Loss of or damage to digital assets (NFTs, cryptocurrencies) • Losses arising from blockchain network issues, smart contract failures, or wallet compromises • Losses arising from reliance on AI-generated analytics or recommendations • Losses arising from marketplace transactions between users • Losses arising from unauthorized access to your account or wallet

13.5. User Content Bindaro Platform Operator stores and makes available user content at the request of the users who provide it, as a provider of a hosting service. It is not the author or publisher of user content, does not select it and does not change its meaning; the user who published it is responsible for its compliance with the law and these Terms. Bindaro Platform Operator is not liable for user content whose illegal nature it is not aware of, and once it becomes aware of it, in particular through a report, it promptly removes that content or disables access to it. Bindaro Platform Operator has no general obligation to monitor user content or to actively seek facts or circumstances indicating that it is illegal. Automated checks and voluntary moderation do not deprive Bindaro Platform Operator of this protection and do not mean that it endorses the content checked. These rules follow from Articles 6, 7 and 8 of the Digital Services Act.
14
By using the Bindaro platform, you acknowledge and accept the following risks:
14.1. Digital Asset Risks • Cryptocurrency and NFT markets are highly volatile. Values can fluctuate dramatically and may drop to zero. • Past performance of any digital asset does not indicate future results. • Digital assets may become illiquid, making it difficult or impossible to sell them. • Regulatory changes may adversely affect the value, usability, or legality of digital assets.
14.2. Blockchain and Technology Risks • Blockchain networks may experience congestion, forks, reorganizations, or failures. • Smart contracts may contain bugs or vulnerabilities that could result in loss of assets. • Private key loss results in permanent and irreversible loss of associated assets. • Wallet software may have security vulnerabilities.
14.3. Platform Risks • The platform may be unavailable due to maintenance, technical issues, or circumstances beyond our control. • Features may be modified, suspended, or discontinued. • Third-party services integrated with the platform (e.g., blockchain nodes, social login providers) may experience outages or discontinue service.
14.4. AI Analytics Risks • AI models may produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading outputs. • AI recommendations should not be relied upon as the sole basis for financial decisions. • Historical data analysis does not predict future outcomes.
14.5. Regulatory Risks • The legal and regulatory landscape for digital assets is evolving and uncertain. • Changes in laws or regulations may restrict or prohibit the use of the platform or certain features. • You are solely responsible for compliance with applicable laws in your jurisdiction.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THESE RISK DISCLAIMERS AND THAT YOU USE THE PLATFORM AT YOUR OWN RISK.
15
If you are a consumer in the European Union, you may have a right of withdrawal under Directive 2011/83/EU (Consumer Rights Directive) when entering into a distance contract.
15.1. Free Services The core Bindaro platform features (album creation, collection management, social features, AI analytics) are provided free of charge. The right of withdrawal under the Consumer Rights Directive applies to contracts where the consumer pays a price. However, to the extent that providing these services involves processing your personal data beyond what is strictly necessary for service provision and you have given consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time (see our Privacy Policy).
15.2. Marketplace Transactions Pursuant to Art. 16(m) of Directive 2011/83/EU, the right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts for the supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium if the performance has begun with your prior express consent and your acknowledgment that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal.
When you confirm a marketplace transaction (purchase or sale of an NFT), you expressly consent to immediate performance of the smart contract and acknowledge that: • The blockchain transaction will be executed immediately upon your wallet signature. • Due to the irreversible nature of blockchain transactions, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised after a transaction has been confirmed on-chain.
15.3. Withdrawal Procedure For any services where the right of withdrawal applies, you may exercise this right within 14 days from the date of contract conclusion by contacting us at contact@bindaro.io with a clear statement of your decision to withdraw. You may use the model withdrawal form provided by Annex I(B) of Directive 2011/83/EU, but it is not mandatory.
•
Paid Plans: withdrawal from the contract for a Paid Plan, resignation from it and refunds are governed by section 26.
16
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Bindaro Platform Operator, its officers, directors, employees, agents, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:
•
Your use of the Bindaro platform

•
Your violation of any applicable law or regulation

Your violation of any third-party rights, including intellectual property rights
•
Content you create, upload, or share on the platform
•

•
Any unauthorized use of your account resulting from your failure to secure your credentials
This indemnification obligation shall survive the termination of your account and these Terms.
Note for EU consumers: This indemnification clause applies only to the extent permitted by the mandatory consumer protection laws of your Member State of residence. It does not limit your statutory rights as a consumer.
17
17.1. Informal Resolution Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceedings, you agree to first contact us at contact@bindaro.io and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will endeavor to respond to your complaint within 14 business days. Most concerns can be resolved through direct communication.
17.2. Governing Law These Terms and any disputes arising from or relating to them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Poland, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. If you are a consumer in the European Union, you also benefit from the mandatory provisions of the consumer protection laws of your Member State of residence.
17.3. Jurisdiction Any disputes that cannot be resolved informally shall be submitted to the competent courts in Poland. If you are a consumer in the European Union, you may also bring proceedings in the courts of your Member State of residence, and we may only bring proceedings against you in the courts of your Member State of residence, in accordance with Regulation (EU) No. 1215/2012 (Brussels I Recast).
17.4. EU Online Dispute Resolution If you are a consumer in the European Union, you may use the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform to resolve disputes online. The ODR platform is available at: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr
Our email address for ODR purposes is: contact@bindaro.io
17.5. No Class Actions To the extent permitted by applicable law, any dispute resolution proceedings shall be conducted on an individual basis and not as part of a class, consolidated, or representative action. This provision does not apply to consumers in jurisdictions where class action waivers are prohibited by mandatory law.
18
18.1. Termination by You You may terminate your account at any time by: • Using the account deletion feature in your Settings page (navigate to Settings, then use the Delete Account button in the Danger Zone section) • Contacting us at contact@bindaro.io with a request to delete your account
Upon account termination, we will delete your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Note that on-chain data (blockchain transactions, NFT transfers) cannot be deleted due to the immutable nature of blockchain technology.

The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving its original intent.

21.4. Assignment You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without the prior written consent of Bindaro Platform Operator. Bindaro Platform Operator may assign its rights and obligations under these Terms to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, provided that the assignee agrees to be bound by these Terms.

21.9. Headings Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
22
22.1. Nature of P2P OTC Trading Certain tokens cannot be traded via the standard on-chain marketplace (Seaport protocol) due to technical constraints. This applies to: • Soulbound tokens (SBTs) — tokens with transfer restrictions, where a direct transfer is not possible via standard marketplace escrow. • Tezos (FA2) tokens — assets on the Tezos blockchain, which do not support EVM-compatible marketplace contracts.
For these tokens, the platform provides a P2P OTC (Over-The-Counter) matching service that allows users to express intent to buy or sell and connect with counterparties. All actual exchange of assets and funds occurs directly between the two parties, outside the platform.
22.2. Platform Role — Matching Only In P2P OTC trades, the platform acts exclusively as a communication and intent-matching layer. Bindaro Platform Operator: • Does NOT custody, escrow, or hold any digital assets on behalf of users. • Does NOT facilitate, process, or guarantee any payment. • Does NOT verify the identity, legal status, wallet ownership, or good faith of any counterparty. • Does NOT guarantee that any listed trade will be completed. • Does NOT have visibility into whether the actual asset transfer has taken place.
22.3. No Liability for P2P Transactions TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BINDARO PLATFORM OPERATOR ACCEPTS NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR: • Any failure, non-performance, or dishonesty by either party in a P2P OTC trade. • Loss of assets, funds, or value resulting from a P2P OTC transaction. • Fraud, scams, misrepresentation, or other malicious conduct by counterparties. • Technical failures during the off-platform transfer process. • Any dispute arising between participants regarding the terms or execution of a P2P trade.
22.4. Dual-Confirmation Mechanism The platform provides a dual-confirmation feature where both the seller and buyer can independently mark a P2P trade as completed. This mechanism is provided for informational and record-keeping purposes only. A dual-confirmation does not constitute proof of payment, proof of asset transfer, or any form of warranty by the platform.
22.5. User Responsibilities By initiating or accepting a P2P OTC trade, you represent, warrant, and agree that: • You have read and understood this Section 22 in its entirety. • You will independently verify the identity and trustworthiness of the counterparty before proceeding with any asset transfer or payment. • You accept full responsibility for the outcome of the P2P transaction, including any financial loss. • You will comply with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction regarding the transfer of the relevant digital assets.
22.6. Dispute Resolution for P2P Trades The platform's dispute reporting feature is informational only. Bindaro Platform Operator has no obligation to investigate, adjudicate, or intervene in P2P trade disputes and provides no guarantee of resolution or remediation.
22.7. Future Tezos On-Chain Mechanism Bindaro Platform Operator reserves the right to introduce a native Tezos on-chain trading mechanism in the future. Until such a mechanism is live, all Tezos trades remain subject to this Section 22.
24
The Platform provides a correspondence channel, the "Impossible Post", in which a letter is recorded on the blockchain and a registered letter is signed for by its recipient. The following rules apply to that channel:
•
Acceptance of the channel — by accepting these Terms, the User accepts this correspondence channel. Delivery, and deemed delivery effected in accordance with the mechanics described below, take effect between Users who have accepted these Terms.
•
Signing for a letter — the recipient of a registered letter signs for it by claiming the letter's envelope on the blockchain. Only then do they receive the part of the key that allows the content to be read.
•
Deemed delivery — if the recipient does not sign for the letter within the period stated when it was posted, the sender may record that fact on the blockchain. The letter is then deemed delivered for the purposes of these Terms, and the recipient can no longer claim it.
•
Parcel in a letter — a registered letter may carry a deposit: collectibles, Shards, or both. The deposit reaches the recipient only once they have signed for the letter. If the recipient refuses the letter, or never signs for it within the stated period, the deposit returns to the sender. The Provider takes no custody of the deposit and cannot dispose of it: the collectibles wait in a contract on the blockchain that the Provider cannot empty in favour of anyone other than the letter's addressee or its sender. Shards remain a unit of account of the Platform — they are neither money, nor electronic money, nor a means of payment, and are not payable out.
•
Limit of effect — where the recipient is a wallet address not belonging to a User of the Platform, the mechanics provide evidence only: who posted the letter, when, what it concerned and how it ended. They produce no effect against that person, who has not accepted these Terms.
•
Nature of the service — the Provider is not a postal operator within the meaning of postal law, and provides neither a registered-mail service nor a trust service within the meaning of the eIDAS Regulation. Evidence issued by the Platform constitutes private documents.
•
Letter content — the content of an end-to-end encrypted letter is unreadable to the Provider. The Provider cannot reconstruct it, hand it over, or restore it if the User loses their keys.
•
Evidence and the envelope — proofs of posting, delivery and non-delivery remain available to the letter's parties for as long as their accounts exist; the facts they are issued from are recorded on the blockchain and remain checkable independently of the Platform. The sealed envelope of a letter is kept for as long as either party's account exists, and a party may save their own copy at any time.
•
Printing on a postcard: the sender of a postcard may print on its picture the card's text and the address the addressee entered in their postcard settings and shared with the switch. The card's picture is public: the printed text and address can be seen by anyone, also after the card changes hands, which is why a card with printed text is not encrypted. The addressee may take the printed text off their card while they hold it; the card then gets a new picture. At the addressee's request the Service Provider removes the printed address from a card. The address for cards may be made up and should not contain anything the User does not want to disclose.
•
Responsibility for the print: the printed text of a card and the address lines are user content within the meaning of section 12. The sender is responsible for the card's text, and the addressee, who entered and shared the address lines, is responsible for them. The Service Provider prints them on the card's picture at the User's request, in the typeface, color and size the User chose; it is not their author, does not select them and does not check whether they are true or lawful. Before a card is sent, its text is checked automatically only against technical requirements such as length, printable characters and the absence of links; passing this check is not an assessment of the content.
•
What may not be printed: the prohibitions in section 11 apply to the card's text and to the address lines. Neither may contain another person's personal data without a legal basis, in particular their address, telephone number or identity document number, or content that infringes the personal rights of others. In the address lines the addressee may give only data about themselves or made-up data.
•
The card's picture and its copies: by sending a card with printed text, the sender also grants the Service Provider the license referred to in section 12 to fix the text in the card's picture and to make that picture available to every later holder of the card and as the picture of the card's token, including outside the Platform. The card belongs to the addressee, so after sending, the sender cannot change or remove the print themselves; this does not limit the sender's rights under data protection law. The license in this respect ends when the print is taken off the card. Other people may copy the card's picture, and third parties such as NFT marketplaces or search engines may store it. After the print is taken off, the Platform shows the card's new picture, but the Service Provider is not responsible for copies made earlier by other people or third parties and cannot have them removed.
•
Withdrawing the address: the addressee may at any time turn off the switch or change or delete the address for cards. The change does not apply to cards whose picture has already been made; the Service Provider removes the printed address from such a card at the addressee's request sent to contact@bindaro.io.
•
Appearance of the print: the preview before sending shows how the print will look. By sending the card, the sender accepts that appearance, including the shape of the letters in the chosen typeface and characters drawn in a substitute typeface where the chosen one lacks them.
•
Address on an envelope: the sender of a letter may print on the envelope's picture the address the addressee shared for cards and, in addition, with the separate switch "On envelopes too". Only the address is printed on an envelope, never the letter's text, and the option is not available for private letters or letters to an e-mail address. The rules above on the address on a card apply accordingly to the address on an envelope, including the addressee's responsibility for the address lines, the prohibitions, the license, copies held by third parties, withdrawing the address and the appearance of the print.
25
The correspondence channel referred to in section 24 may be supplemented by a paper letter posted with an external postal operator. The following rules apply to that supplement:
•
Contract with the operator — the contract for the postal service is concluded between the User and the operator chosen at posting; that operator's terms and tariff apply. The Provider is not a party to that contract, is not a postal operator, and is not a subcontractor of the operator.
•
Postage — postage is charged by the operator. The date-stamp sticker printed by the User is neither a postage mark nor a mark of the operator; it identifies the letter within the Platform and nothing else.
•
Reservation — printing the posting pack reserves the stamp and the envelope for the period stated at printing. The stamp is cancelled only once the User reports the tracking number. If the letter is not posted within the reservation period, the reservation lapses and the stamp returns to the User's disposal.
•
Signing by scan — the recipient signs for the letter by scanning the one-time code from the slip placed inside the envelope, and only once the operator confirms delivery. Signing produces the effects described in section 24: the recipient receives the digital envelope and the key to the content.
•
Sender's confirmation — if the operator reports no new events for an extended period, the sender may confirm that the item arrived. That confirmation then comes from the sender, not from the operator, and is marked as such in the evidence.
•
Operator data — events and statuses retrieved from the operator's tracking system are quoted without alteration in substance and are mapped only to shipment stages. They are visible to the letter's parties and enter the evidence; the Provider is not responsible for their completeness, accuracy or timeliness.
•
Postal address — the recipient's address is encrypted on their device and readable only by the sender; the Provider stores it in a form it cannot read and deletes it 30 days after delivery. The address serves solely to address that item.
•
Return and non-collection — return of the item, its non-collection, loss, damage and delay are events on the operator's side. Complaints in that respect are directed by the User to the operator, on that operator's terms. Postage is not refunded by the Provider. The consequences within the Platform of a letter that is never collected are governed by the deemed-delivery rules in section 24.
•
Availability of operators — the list of operators available at posting may change; the Provider may restrict or suspend it, in particular where an operator ceases to make tracking data available.
26
The Platform offers the START, PRO and MAX plans (the “Plan”). START is free of charge. The Service Provider may grant a PRO or MAX Plan free of charge, or the User may pay for it (the “Paid Plan”). The features and limits of each Plan and the number of Shards granted each month under it are shown on the Platform.
•
Price and term: a Paid Plan is paid in advance for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months, according to the price list shown on the Platform before the order is placed. The price includes applicable taxes. A longer term may cost less per month. A change of the price list does not affect periods already paid.
•
Conclusion of the contract: the contract for a Paid Plan is concluded when the order is placed, and the Paid Plan runs from receipt of the payment for the whole paid period. Months are counted in the official time of Poland. A payment for the next period made before the current one ends extends the Paid Plan without a gap.
•
Payments: payments are handled by the payment operator indicated with the order or made by bank transfer to the account indicated by the Service Provider. The Service Provider does not store payment card data. The Service Provider issues an invoice at the User's request.
•
Renewal: a Paid Plan paid manually does not renew by itself, and the Platform reminds the User of the end of the paid period. Where the payment operator allows it, the User may choose automatic renewal: the fee for the next period is then charged at the end of the current one, and the User may switch renewal off in Settings at any time, with effect at the end of the paid period.
•
Expiry: without a payment for the next period, the Paid Plan expires after the paid period and the payment deadline shown on the Platform. The Account then returns to the granted Plan or to the START plan. The Account and its content are not deleted.
•
Shards under a Plan: for each month of a Plan the User receives the number of Shards shown on the Platform for that Plan, when the month begins, including when several months were paid in advance. Where an Account has both a granted Plan and a Paid Plan, the higher of them applies, and the Shards for a given month are granted once, according to the higher Plan. The rules on Shards are set out in section 23.
•
Plan for a membership card: the Service Provider may grant a Plan free of charge to holders of a membership card (an NFT token) named on the Platform, for as long as the card is in a wallet assigned to the Account: the login wallet, the embedded wallet or a linked wallet confirmed by a signature. A plan for a card may have an end date; for example, the PZKF 2026 membership card grants the PRO plan until 31 March 2027. One card brings the Shards for a given month to one Account; a card passed to another Account during a month brings it Shards only after that month ends.
•
Change of Plan: moving to a higher Plan during a paid period requires the additional payment shown on the Platform. The Shards for the current month are then topped up to the number for the higher Plan, and those for months paid in advance are granted when they begin.
•
Withdrawal from the contract: a User who is a consumer may withdraw from the contract for a Paid Plan within 14 days of its conclusion, without giving reasons, by sending a statement to support@bindaro.io. If the User requested that the Paid Plan start before that period ends, the User pays for the time until withdrawal, in proportion to the price (Article 35 of the Polish Consumer Rights Act of 30 May 2014). The Service Provider refunds the remaining amount within 14 days of receiving the statement, using the same means of payment unless the User agrees otherwise. Shards granted under the Paid Plan since it began may be withdrawn.
•
Resignation: the User may resign from a Paid Plan at any time by sending a statement to support@bindaro.io. The Paid Plan then runs until the end of the current month. For full months paid in advance that have not yet begun, the Service Provider refunds the corresponding part of the price (the price of the paid period divided by the number of its months) within 14 days of receiving the statement. Shards from months that have begun remain with the User. Switching off automatic renewal stops further charges.
•
Refunded payments: if a payment is refunded by the payment operator (including a chargeback), the periods it paid for that have not yet begun expire, Shards granted in the periods it paid for may be withdrawn, and a refund of the payment for the current period ends the Paid Plan.
•
Complaints: complaints concerning Plans and payments are subject to the complaints procedure set out in these Terms, without prejudice to the User's rights under the rules on the lack of conformity of digital content or a digital service with the contract.
