These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you ("you",
"your") and PaxLabs Inc ("PaxLabs", "we", "us", "our"), a Delaware (USA)
corporation. They govern your access to and use of our public websites
including paxlabs.inc and any sub-domain we operate, together
with our documentation, research publications, and brand materials
(collectively, the "Services").
Read these Terms carefully. They include a binding arbitration clause and a class-action waiver. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1. Acceptance of terms
By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Disclosures, and any other policies linked from the Services. If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity.
2. Eligibility
You may use the Services only if all of the following are true:
- You are at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction if higher;
- You are not barred from using the Services under applicable law;
- You are not located in, or a resident or national of, any country subject to comprehensive US, UK, EU, or UN sanctions, including (without limitation) Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions;
- You are not listed on the US Treasury Department's Specially Designated Nationals ("SDN") list, the UK HM Treasury sanctions list, or any equivalent sanctions list;
- Your use of the Services does not violate any law applicable to you.
3. Nature of the service
The Services consist of publicly available information about PaxLabs and
our research. We do not operate an end-user account system on
paxlabs.inc. We do not hold user funds, execute trades, or
provide financial services through these Services.
Interacting with the Paxeer Network, HyperPaxeer, or any affiliated blockchain is a separate act undertaken by you, directly on-chain or through third-party interfaces, outside these Terms. Your use of any such protocol is governed by the terms published by the operator of the applicable interface and the protocol itself.
4. Content & intellectual property
Unless expressly stated otherwise, all content on the Services — including text, graphics, logos, marks, source code, specifications, and publications — is owned by PaxLabs or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.
Specifications and research publications may be made available under specific open-source or open-content licences. Where such a licence applies, its terms govern your use of the licensed material and supersede these Terms for that purpose only.
You may view, download, and print reasonable quantities of Services content for personal, non-commercial reference, journalism, scholarship, or internal business analysis, provided you preserve all copyright and attribution notices.
5. Brand asset usage
PaxLabs brand assets — including logos, wordmarks, trade names, and product names such as "Paxeer", "HyperPaxeer", "Hyperpax-OS", "Argus", and "ChainFlow" — are trademarks or registered trademarks of PaxLabs Inc or its affiliates.
- You may use our brand assets solely to refer truthfully to PaxLabs, our products, or our research, subject to the PaxLabs Brand Guidelines available on our Press page.
- You may not modify, distort, or combine our brand assets with other marks in a way that suggests sponsorship or endorsement we have not granted.
- You may not use our brand assets in a domain name or as part of a product or service name without our prior written consent.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Services in violation of applicable law, regulation, or sanctions;
- Interfere with the operation of the Services or probe, scan, or test their vulnerability without prior written authorisation;
- Introduce malicious code, attempt unauthorised access, or circumvent rate-limits or access controls;
- Scrape, harvest, or systematically extract content other than as permitted by our
robots.txtfile or a written agreement; - Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation;
- Use the Services to defame, harass, or harm any person;
- Use the Services to launder money or facilitate sanctions evasion.
7. Third-party services
The Services may link to, reference, or embed content from third parties — such as source-code repositories, block explorers, research mirrors, and social networks. We are not responsible for third-party services, and your use of them is governed by the applicable third-party terms. The inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement.
8. No investment advice
Nothing on the Services constitutes investment advice, legal advice, tax advice, accounting advice, or a recommendation to buy, hold, or sell any security, digital asset, commodity, derivative, or other financial instrument. Research publications and technical writing are provided for informational and educational purposes only.
We are not a broker, dealer, investment adviser, commodity-pool operator, commodity-trading advisor, money-services business, or bank. See the Disclosures page for a fuller statement.
9. Blockchain risks
Public blockchains — including those operated by, affiliated with, or described by PaxLabs — carry inherent risks, including (without limitation): protocol bugs, economic exploits, network congestion, chain halts, re-orgs, hard forks, validator failures, oracle manipulation, and permanent loss of assets sent to incorrect addresses. You assume full responsibility for your interactions with any blockchain.
10. Disclaimers
The Services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, PaxLabs disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
PaxLabs does not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components, nor that content will be accurate, complete, or current.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event shall PaxLabs, its affiliates, officers, employees, or contractors be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages — including loss of profits, data, goodwill, or digital assets — arising out of or relating to your use of the Services, whether in contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
PaxLabs's aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Services will not exceed one hundred US dollars (USD 100) or the amount you paid PaxLabs in the twelve months preceding the claim, whichever is greater.
Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations of liability. The limitations above apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
12. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless PaxLabs and its affiliates, officers, employees, and contractors from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to your violation of these Terms, your misuse of the Services, or your violation of any law or third-party right.
13. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at any time, without notice, for any reason — including violation of these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual-property, disclaimers, liability, indemnity, governing law, and dispute-resolution provisions) will survive.
14. Governing law
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Services are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
15. Dispute resolution & arbitration
Please read this section carefully. It requires arbitration of most disputes and limits your remedies.
You and PaxLabs agree to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services by binding, individual arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures. The arbitration will be conducted in Wilmington, Delaware, or remotely at the claimant's election. Judgement on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
The following disputes are not subject to arbitration and may be brought in court of competent jurisdiction in Delaware: (a) small-claims actions; (b) actions seeking injunctive or equitable relief for alleged infringement or misuse of intellectual property; (c) actions otherwise not subject to arbitration under applicable law.
You may opt out of arbitration by sending a written notice to legal@paxlabs.inc within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. The notice must include your name, your contact address, and a clear statement that you are opting out of arbitration.
16. Class-action waiver
You and PaxLabs agree that any dispute will be resolved only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. If this waiver is found to be unenforceable, the entirety of the arbitration provision will be null and void for that dispute.
17. Miscellaneous
- Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy, Cookie, and Disclosures policies, constitute the entire agreement between you and PaxLabs regarding the Services.
- Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
- No waiver. Failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of future enforcement.
- Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign freely to an affiliate or in connection with a corporate transaction.
- Force majeure. We are not liable for failures caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, internet outages, and governmental actions.
- Notices. We may provide notices via the Services or by email. You must provide notices to legal@paxlabs.inc.
18. Changes
We may amend these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be indicated by a new "Effective" date. Continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
