You are entering into a binding agreement. By accessing or using our Services, connecting your digital or cryptocurrency wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Rabby Wallet, or Coinbase Wallet) to the Services, or otherwise using or accessing the Services, you acknowledge that you are entering into a binding agreement with Fortune Foes that includes: (a) these Terms; (b) our Privacy Policy, available at FortuneFoes.com, which governs our collection and use of personal information and other data (the "Privacy Policy"); and (c) any other terms, conditions, or policies linked to on our Services or in our Terms or Privacy Policy. You further acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed these documents. If you do not agree with the terms of these documents, you may not use or access our Services.

Fortune Foes is not responsible for, nor a party to, any agreement or interaction between you and any third party.

ALL TRANSACTIONS ARE FINAL. AT NO TIME WILL FORTUNE FOES REFUND ANY TRANSACTION FEES OR OTHER COSTS YOU INCUR WHILE USING THE SERVICES. NFTS ARE INTANGIBLE DIGITAL ASSETS THAT EXIST ONLY BY VIRTUE OF THE OWNERSHIP RECORD MAINTAINED ON THE APPLICABLE BLOCKCHAIN. ANY TRANSFER OF TITLE THAT MIGHT OCCUR IN ANY NFT OCCURS ON THE DECENTRALIZED OR DISTRIBUTED LEDGER WITHIN THE APPLICABLE BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT WE CAN EFFECT THE TRANSFER OF TITLE OR RIGHT IN ANY NFT.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you understand, acknowledge, and agree that the legal requirements pertaining to blockchain technologies and digital assets generally, including, without limitation, the NFTs, are uncertain, and you have conducted an independent investigation of such potentially applicable legal requirements and the resulting risks and uncertainties, including the risk that one or more governmental entities or other persons may assert that any digital assets or cryptographic tokens (including the NFTs) may constitute securities under applicable legal requirements. You hereby irrevocably disclaim and disavow reliance upon any statements or representations made by or on behalf of, or information made available by, Fortune Foes, in determining to enter into these Terms, mint, bid on, buy, or sell any Utility or use the Services.

You represent that you are not a Sanctioned Person and agree not to take any action that will cause anyone, including, without limitation, Fortune Foes, to be in violation of any Export Controls and Sanctions Laws.
For purposes of these Terms, "Sanctioned Person" means any government, country, corporation, or other entity, group, or individual with whom or which Export Controls and Sanctions Laws prohibit or restrict a U.S. person from engaging in transactions, and includes, without limitation, any individual, corporation, or other entity that appears on OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List or other lists maintained by OFAC or the U.S. Department of Commerce, as each such list may be amended from time to time.

Persons who tamper with or abuse any aspect of our Services, who act in a disruptive manner, or who are in violation of these Terms, as solely determined by Fortune Foes, may be banned from participating in and/or accessing our Services.
Should any of Fortune Foes' Services be, in Fortune Foes' sole opinion, compromised by bots, worms, bugs, non-authorized human intervention, or other causes which, in the sole opinion of Fortune Foes, corrupt or impair the administration, security, or fairness of the Services or the distribution of any NFTs or otherwise adversely affect Fortune Foes' business or good will, Fortune Foes reserves the right in its sole discretion to suspend, modify, or terminate the Services.

By participating in the Services:
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THESE TERMS DO NOT REPRESENT A COMPLETE STATEMENT OF RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH DIGITAL ASSETS, PRODUCTS OR EXPERIENCES THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE OR DISCUSSED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES, OR UTILITY AVAILABLE TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL FORTUNE FOES, FORTUNE FOES' AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS ("FORTUNE FOES PARTIES") BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE, OR INJURY OF ANY KIND INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE LOSSES OR DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR SYSTEM FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION OR LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, BUSINESS, OR GOOD-WILL OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES. IN NO EVENT WILL THE FORTUNE FOES PARTIES' CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY, FROM ALL CAUSES OF ACTION AND ALL THEORIES OF LIABILITY, EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO THE FORTUNE FOES PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES IN THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS FOR THE SERVICES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL ANY FORTUNE FOES PARTY BE REQUIRED TO DELIVER TO YOU ANY VIRTUAL CURRENCY OR NFTS AS DAMAGES, MAKE SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, OR ANY OTHER REMEDY. IF YOU WOULD BASE YOUR CALCULATIONS OF DAMAGES IN ANY WAY ON THE VALUE OF VIRTUAL CURRENCY OR NFTS, YOU AND WE AGREE THAT THE CALCULATION SHALL BE BASED ON THE LOWEST VALUE OF THE VIRTUAL CURRENCY DURING THE PERIOD BETWEEN THE INITIAL INCIDENT RESULTING IN THE ACCRUAL OF THE CLAIM AND THE AWARD OF DAMAGES.
THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS INTENDED TO APPLY WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS HAVE BEEN BREACHED OR HAVE PROVEN INEFFECTIVE. THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER THE ASSERTED LIABILITY OR DAMAGES ARE BASED ON CONTRACT, INDEMNIFICATION, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY AND WHETHER OR NOT THE FORTUNE FOES PARTIES HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGE.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES AND LIABILITIES PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT PERMIT FORTUNE FOES PARTIES TO DISCLAIM CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR LIMIT CERTAIN LIABILITIES, THE EXTENT OF FORTUNE FOES PARTIES' LIABILITY AND THE SCOPE OF ANY SUCH WARRANTIES WILL BE AS PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Fortune Foes and the Fortune Foes Parties from and against all actual or alleged third party claims, damages, awards, judgments, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, interest, fees, expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees and expenses), and costs (including, without limitation, court costs, costs of settlement, and costs of or associated with pursuing indemnification and insurance), of every kind and nature whatsoever arising out of or related to these Terms or your use of the Services, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, or suspected or unsuspected, in law or equity, whether in tort, contract or otherwise (collectively, "Claims") that are caused by, arise out of, or are related to (a) your use or misuse of the Services, (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of the rights of any third party, including another user of any Wallet; (d) any breach or non-performance of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement made by you; and (e) your buying, selling, or trading of any NFTs.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
Prior to commencing any legal proceeding against us of any kind, including an arbitration as set forth below, you and we agree that we will attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy between us arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (collectively, "Disputes") by engaging in good faith negotiations. Such good faith negotiations require, at a minimum, that the aggrieved party provide a written notice to the other party specifying the nature and details of the Dispute. The party receiving such notice shall have (30) days to respond to the notice. Within sixty (60) days after the aggrieved party sent the initial notice, the parties shall meet and confer in good faith by videoconference or by telephone to try to resolve the Dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute within ninety (90) days after the aggrieved party sent the initial notice, the parties may agree to mediate their Dispute, or either party may submit the Dispute to arbitration as set forth below.
These Terms will be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law provisions. You and we expressly agree that any claim or dispute must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court or arbitration located in Los Angeles County, California, except as described in the agreement to arbitrate below or as otherwise mutually agreed by the parties.
Except as provided below, you and we agree that any Dispute that cannot be resolved through the procedures set forth above will be resolved through binding arbitration on an individual basis. Class actions and class arbitrations are not allowed. You may bring a claim only on behalf of yourself and cannot seek relief that would affect other users of our services. If there is a final judicial ruling that any particular claim (or a request for particular relief) cannot be arbitrated in accordance with these Terms, then only that particular claim or request for relief may be brought in court. All other claims (or requests for relief) remain subject to this provision. Questions of arbitrability—i.e., whether a particular claim is subject to arbitration—shall be resolved in arbitration.
Instead of commencing an arbitration, you or we may also bring claims in your local "small claims" court if the rules applicable to that court allow it. Otherwise, the claims must be resolved by binding, individual arbitration.
If you are in the United States, the arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. If you are outside of the United States, the arbitration will be conducted by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution in accordance with its International Expedited Procedures. The arbitration will be decided by a sole arbitrator. The arbitrator will have experience adjudicating matters involving Internet technology, software applications, financial transactions and, ideally, blockchain technology. The costs and fees of arbitration shall be allocated in accordance with the arbitration provider's rules, including rules regarding frivolous or improper claims. You and we expressly waive a trial by jury.
The arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The prevailing party will be entitled to an award of their reasonable attorney's fees and costs. Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor its representatives may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of (all/both) parties.
You can opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days of the date you agreed to these Terms. To opt out, you must send an email to us at [email protected] with your full name and email address and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement (such notice, an "Arbitration Opt-out Notice"). If you do not provide us with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice within the thirty (30) day period, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any dispute.
You and we agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising from or relating to these Terms or the Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or will be forever barred.
Should any portion of these Terms be rendered void, invalid, or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding upon the parties.
Any provision of these Terms that by its nature would extend beyond its expiration or termination shall remain in effect in perpetuity or until fulfilled.
