3. PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING CO, THE SMART CONTRACTS, OR THE WEBSITE. THESE TERMS GOVERN YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE, THE SMART CONTRACTS, AND THE WEBSITE, UNLESS WE HAVE EXECUTED A SEPARATE WRITTEN AGREEMENT WITH YOU FOR THAT PURPOSE. WE ARE ONLY WILLING TO MAKE CO, THE SMART CONTRACTS, AND THE WEBSITE AVAILABLE TO YOU IF YOU ACCEPT ALL OF THESE TERMS.

USING ChosenOnes.io
4. Restrictions
- a. CO is only available to users over the age of 18. You must not create an account if you are under the age of 18.
- b. You must not, under any circumstances:
-
use exploits, automation software, bots, mods, or any unauthorised third-party software
designed to modify or interfere with the ChosenOnes.io service, any ChosenOnes.io game,
any ChosenOnes.io smart contract, any ChosenOnes.io NFT, or any ChosenOnes.io game

c. You agree that you will not use a name for any NFT or user that is likely to be offensive, derogatory, prejudicial, inflammatory or inappropriate for use in the CO community. Fork reserves the right upon to cancel the name of any NFT or user which Fork determines in its absolute discretion to be offensive, derogatory, prejudicial, inflammatory or inappropriate for use in the CO community by giving the NFT owner or user written notice (which may provided after the name has been cancelled). Where such a determination is made, the NFT name or user name will be changed to a generic name and the NFT owner or account registrant will be able to choose a new name. You agree that the determination of Fork is final and not reviewable, and that repeated breaches of this clause may result in suspension of the user’s account or the ability for the NFT to participate in CO and/or the termination of the Licence issued under clause 19.b.
5 - CO has utilized Smart Contracts to develop the CO Warriors. CO will release a certain number of Warriors into the marketplace and make them available for purchase to the public at the Company’s discretion.
6 - To most easily use CO, we strongly recommend that you first install the Google Chrome web browser. Once you have installed Chrome, you will need to install a browser extension called MetaMask. MetaMask is an electronic digital wallet, which allows you to purchase, store, and engage in transactions using Ethereum or any other ERC-20 cryptocurrency. You will not be able to engage in any transactions on CO other than through MetaMask (or other Ethereum-compatible browsers) or an email address, where CO creates a non-custodial electronic digital wallet for you.
7- CO will only recognize you as a user and you will only be able to interact with CO, if your Ethereum electronic digital wallet is connected and unlocked through your MetaMask account or your email address. There is no other way to sign up as a user, or to interact directly with CO. BY USING OUR SERVICES YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE GOVERNED BY THE TERMS OF SERVICE AND PRIVACY POLICY FOR THE APPLICABLE EXTENSIONS. FOR METAMASK, THOSE TERMS ARE AVAILABLE AT (https://metamask.io/terms.html) and (https://metamask.io/privacy.html).
8 - You are responsible for any Internet connection and telecommunication fees and charges that you incur when accessing CO.
9 - Transactions that take place on CO are managed and confirmed via the Polygon blockchain, which is a proof of stake network, and a sidechain to the Ethereum blockchain. The main Ethereum blockchain is currently a proof of work network. Proof of stake networks use less energy than proof of work networks. You understand that your Ethereum public address will be made publicly visible whenever you engage in a transaction on CO.
10 - We neither own nor control MetaMask, Google Chrome, the Ethereum network, or any other third party site, product, or service that you might access, visit, or use for the purpose of enabling you to use the various features of CO. CO will not be liable for the acts or omissions of any such third parties, nor will we be liable for any damage that you may suffer as a result of your transactions or any other interaction with any such third parties.
11 - You must provide accurate and complete registration information when you create an account on CO. By creating an account, you agree to provide accurate, current and complete account information about yourself, and to maintain and promptly update as necessary your account information. You are responsible for the security of your account and your MetaMask wallet (and other Ethereum wallets and email accounts).
12 - You may not share or transfer any account. You may not disclose your password or other credentials to anyone. You agree to immediately notify CO by sending an email to us at support@chosenones.io concerning any known or suspected unauthorized use(s) of your account or any known or suspected breach of security, including loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure of your password. You understand and agree that you shall be liable for all activities that occur under any account created for your use, even if such activities were not committed by you. We are not responsible for any loss or damage arising from your failure to maintain the confidentiality of your password or of your account.
FEES
13 - If you elect to purchase, sell or breed warriors using CO, or with or from other users in CO, any financial transactions that you engage in will be conducted solely through the Ethereum network via MetaMask. We will have no insight into or control over these payments or transactions, nor do we have the ability to reverse any transactions. With that in mind, we will have no liability to you or to any third party for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any transactions that you engage in via the App, or using the Smart Contracts, or any other transactions that you conduct via the Ethereum network or MetaMask.
14 - Ethereum requires the payment of a transaction fee (a “Gas Fee”) for every transaction that occurs on the Ethereum network. The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run the decentraliCO Ethereum network. This means that you will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction that occurs via the App.
15 - In addition to the Gas Fee, each time you utilize a Smart Contract to conduct a transaction with another user via CO, you authorize CO to collect a commission on certain events only (a “Commission”). These events include purchasing, selling or breeding of a warrior on the App. You acknowledge and agree that the Commission will be transferred directly to us through the Ethereum network as part of your payment.
TERMS OF SALE OF NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS
16 - When you purchase or Procure non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for use in CO you must agree to the following terms and conditions (NFT Terms), which apply to you and any subsequent person to whom you sell the NFT(s) you purchased from us in the first instance, or to whom you otherwise transfer the NFT(s) you Procured.
