3. Accessing the Playdex Service (“Service”)
Like much of Web3, your blockchain address functions as your identity on Playdex. Accordingly,
you will need a blockchain address and a third-party wallet to access the Service. Your account
on the Service (“Account”) will be associated with your blockchain address.
Your Account will be associated with the following:
3.1 Your linked blockchain address via a third-party wallet (Metamask, TrustWallet, etc.)
3.2 A Playdex Wallet (“Wallet”) pegged to your Account
3.1.1 By using your third-party wallet in connection with the Service, you agree
that you are using that wallet under the terms and conditions of the applicable provider
of the wallet.
Third-party wallets are not operated by, maintained by, or affiliated with Playdex,
and Playdex does not have custody or control over the contents of your third-party wallet
and has no ability to retrieve or transfer its contents.
Playdex accepts no responsibility for, or liability to you, in connection with your
use of a third-party wallet and makes no representations or warranties regarding how the
Service will operate with any specific third-party wallet. You are solely responsible for
keeping your third-party wallet secure and you should never share your wallet
credentials or seed phrase with anyone. If you discover an issue related to your
third-party wallet, please contact your third-party wallet provider.
Likewise, you are solely responsible for your Account and any associated
third-party wallet and we are not liable for any acts or omissions by you in connection
with your Account or as a result of your Account or third-party wallet being compromised.
You agree to immediately notify us if you discover or otherwise suspect any security
issues related to the Service or your Account (you can contact us here).
3.2.1 Playdex Wallet, Digital Currency and Digital Assets Title
Digital Currency and Digital AssetsTitle.

Digital Currency and Digital Assets held in your Playdex Wallet.
(B) None of the Digital Currencies and Digital Assets in your Playdex Wallet are
the property of, or shall or may be loaned to, Playdex Inc.; Playdex Inc. does not
represent or treat assets in a user’s Digital Currency Wallets as belonging to

held in your Digital Currency Wallet. Except as required by a facially valid court
order, or except as provided herein, Playdex Inc. will not sell, transfer, loan,
hypothecate, or otherwise alienate Digital Currency and Digital Assets in your
Playdex Wallet unless instructed by you or compelled by a court of competent
jurisdiction to do so.

Wallet. At any time, subject to outages, downtime, and other applicable policies,

Playdex Inc. may use shared blockchain addresses, controlled by a member of
the Playdex Inc., to hold Digital Currencies and Digital Assets held on behalf of
customers. Customers’ Digital Currencies and Digital Assets are segregated from
the Playdex Inc. own Digital Currency or funds by way of separate ledger
accounting entries for customer and Playdex Inc. accounts. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Playdex Inc. shall not have any obligation to use different blockchain
addresses to store Digital Currencies owned by you and Digital Currencies

material removed, the following information in the form of a written notification (pursuant to 17
U.S.C. § 512(c)) must be provided to our designated Copyright Agent:
your physical or electronic signature;
identification of the copyrighted work(s) that you claim to have been infringed;

you are either the owner of the copyright that has allegedly been infringed or that you are
authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
Please note that, pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any misrepresentation of material fact
(falsities) in a written notification automatically subjects the complaining party to liability for any
damages, costs and attorney’s fees incurred by us in connection with the written notification and
allegation of copyright infringement.

11. General
11.1 Changes. We may revise these Terms from time to time. The most current version of
the Terms, which will always be at https://playdex.io/tos will govern our relationship with you. We
may try to notify you of material revisions, for example via a service notification or an email to
the email associated with your account. By continuing to access or use the Services after those
revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.
11.2 Dispute Resolution. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your
contract with the Company and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY
BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
(a) Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for
injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of
any product or service provided by the Company that cannot be resolved informally or in small
claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of
this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held
in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and the Company, and to any
subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns,
as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided
under the Terms.
(b) Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek
arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”)
describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to the
Company should be sent to: legal@playdex.io. After the Notice is received, you and the
Company may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and the Company do
not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party
may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party
may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the
award, if any, to which either party is entitled.
(c) Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that
offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall
agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all
aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding
arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The AAA Consumer
Arbitration Rules (“Arbitration Rules”) governing the arbitration are available online at
www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration shall be conducted by a
single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is
less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding
non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or
disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US
$10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any
hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of
the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the U.S., the
arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral
hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of
competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last
settlement offer that the Company made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, the Company
will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00. Each party shall bear its own costs
(including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an
equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.
(d) Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance based
arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely
on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the
arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or
witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
(e) Time Limits. If you or the Company pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be
initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a
claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.
(f) Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and
liabilities, if any, of you and the Company, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other
matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant
motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award
monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual
under applicable law, the AAA Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award
and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award
is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same
authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The
award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and the Company.
(g) Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL
AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE
OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under
this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and
less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In
the event any litigation should arise between you and the Company in any state or federal court
in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND THE COMPANY
WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a
judge.
(h) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN
THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED
ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN
ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR
CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
(i) Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to
the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties
agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not
prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this
Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
(j) Severability. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law
to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or
parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement
shall continue in full force and effect.
(k) Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration
Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall
not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.
(l) Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your
relationship with the Company.
(m) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or the Company may
bring an individual action in small claims court.
(n) Emergency Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek
emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo
pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other
rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement.
(o) Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of
defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or
misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets shall not be
subject to this Arbitration Agreement.
(p) Courts. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the
parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the
courts located within Singapore, for such purpose
11.3 Export. The Site may be subject to U.S. export control laws and may be subject to
export or import regulations in other countries. You agree not to export, reexport, or transfer,
directly or indirectly, any U.S. technical data acquired from Company, or any products utilizing
such data, in violation of the United States export laws or regulations.
11.4 Disclosures. Company is located at the address in Section 11.8. If you are a
California resident, you may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division

writing at 400 R Street, Sacramento, CA 95814, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
11.5 Electronic Communications. The communications between you and Company use
electronic means, whether you use the Site or send us emails, or whether Company posts
notices on the Site or communicates with you via email. For contractual purposes, you (a)
consent to receive communications from Company in an electronic form; and (b) agree that all
terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that
Company provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications
would satisfy if it were be in a hardcopy writing. The foregoing does not affect your non-waivable
rights.
11.6 Entire Terms. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us
regarding the use of the Site. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these
Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms
are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. The word “including” means
“including without limitation”. If any provision of these Terms is, for any reason, held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired and the invalid
or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the
maximum extent permitted by law. Your relationship to Company is that of an independent
contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. These Terms, and your rights
and obligations herein, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred
by you without Company’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract,
delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void. Company may freely
assign these Terms. The terms and conditions set forth in these Terms shall be binding upon
assignees.

reserved. All trademarks, logos and service marks (“Marks”) displayed on the Site are our
