PRIVACY POLICY & TERMS OF USE

Please read these Terms and Conditions of Use (the “Terms of Use”) carefully. These Terms of Use govern your use of www.easygold.io (the “Website”) and our services (the “Services.”) 

RISK WARNING: When trading and investing in cryptocurrencies, you automatically take on a substantial amount of risk of the potential loss. Cryptocurrency prices can be affected by many factors, including, but not limited to, national and international economic, financial, regulatory, political, terrorist, military, and other events. Just like trading on the foreign exchange, it is possible to lose most if not all funds within a very short time frame. Because of this, investing and trading in cryptocurrencies is unsuitable for all investors. Before starting to trade cryptocurrencies, make sure you are mindful and fully understand the complexity, risks, and nature of trading cryptocurrencies. Understand that there is a chance that you could lose your capital. Due to the high volatility of the price of many cryptocurrencies on the market, the price may go up or down radically within a short time, resulting in a potential loss of value of your entire investment in cryptocurrencies, including a complete or partial loss of purchasing power, and difficulty or a complete inability to sell or exchange your currency. If you do decide to trade or purchase/short cryptocurrencies, please make sure you are allocating only that portion of funds that you can risk and can afford to lose. In no event shall Hartmann Hartmann & Benz, LLC (the “Company”), Hartmann & Benz, GmbH, or Hartmann Group are liable for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of this site or the services found at this Website. © 2022 Hartmann & Benz, LLC.

  2. Services

    The Company operates the Website that enables Users to access, send, receive, exchange/convert, and transfer virtual currencies, tokens, and cryptocurrencies (collectively, “Cryptocurrency”). This license agreement permits you to use our services subject to certain conditions, rights, and obligations.

    Deposits and withdrawals

    You may deposit Cryptocurrencies into our account at any time during the duration of your contractual relationship with the Company. Cryptocurrencies as means of payment for other Cryptocurrencies will be accepted via Cryptocurrency transfer (BTC, ETH, etc.) where the originator is you. The Company allows you to receive deposits higher than the established limit but does not accept internal third party or anonymous payments in favor of your account in the amount higher than the established limit and without going through the KYC procedure. The Company shall perform withdrawals of your Cryptocurrencies upon an application for withdrawal made via the Website.

  3. Transactions

    The only authentic record of Cryptocurrency transactions is the applicable blockchain. The Website provides functionality that allows You to send Cryptocurrency transfer instructions. Timely and efficient manner of transactions involving other cryptocurrency wallets and networks is not guaranteed because it is out of the Company’s control.

    You must ensure that your transactions conform to the applicable rules of the software for Cryptocurrencies (especially with smart contract systems like Ethereum). The Company reserves the right to refuse to process or cancel any pending Cryptocurrency Transaction as required by law or in response to a subpoena, court order, or other binding government order or to enforce transaction limits.

    If you believe you did not authorize a particular transaction or that a transaction was incorrectly carried out, you must contact us as soon as possible and, in any case, no later than 3 months after the relevant transaction occurred by opening a support ticket from within the Website’s Help & Support section. It is important that you regularly check your transaction history regularly to ensure any unauthorized or incorrect transactions are identified and notified to us at the earliest possible opportunity. We are not responsible for any claim for unauthorized or incorrect transactions, even if you have notified us in accordance with this section. We accept complaints only from Users that went through the KYC procedure. Any compensation or acceptance of liability is within the sole discretion of the Company.

    Refund Policy. It is the nature of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the other cryptocurrencies on our Website that all transactions are final with no method of chargeback or recourse for the sender of the funds. As such, we cannot reverse or provide refunds for any payment made through our payment system. No refunds or reversals are provided for payments made for any currency through the Convert or other functionality implemented that is no longer desired to be owned by the User; throughout any time of ownership by the User.

    Funds Recovery – Sends to wrong coin/chain, missing tags, delisted coins, etc.

    If coins are sent to the wrong coin or blockchain or a delisted coin, there is no ability for the Company to recover the funds. This would apply if, for example, you sent Ether to an Ether Classic address or Digitalcoin to a Dogecoin address, etc. This would also apply to coins that require a destination tag, payment ID, memo, etc., and they were not set or were set to an incorrect value. We will not recover tokens we do not support, for example, from Ether-based ICOs that aren’t on our Supported Coins list. You must contact us within 60 days for us to recover your funds for you, or they will be forfeited.

    Passphrases. A passphrase is an industry-standard tool that is the LAST LINE of protection for a User account on our Website. Due to security and privacy reasons, every company that has passphrase protection is unable to access the passphrases. Therefore, if you lose your passphrases or incorrectly wrote them down initially, then you will lose access to your account, and there is nothing our Company – nor any company – can do to regain access to your account. It is the responsibility of the User to correctly write down and store their passphrases as initially shown to them by the Website, not limited to; without any spacing after the words, in the same numeric order, and that the grammar is correct. The Company does not have access to the funds of an account that the User has lost access to, as the funds are being held in a non-custodial wallet, and there is no ability to confirm that the support ticket opened concerning the loss of access is the primary owner of such account.

    Third Party Payments. Our Service Provider and we have no control over, or liability for, the delivery, quality, safety, legality, or any other aspect of any goods or services that you may purchase or sell to or from a third party. We are not responsible for ensuring that a third-party buyer or a seller you transact with will complete the transaction or is authorized to do so. If you experience a problem with any goods or services purchased from or sold to a third party using Digital Currency transferred using our Website, or if you have a dispute with such a third party, you should resolve the dispute directly with that third party. If you believe a third party has behaved in a fraudulent, misleading, or inappropriate manner, or if you cannot adequately resolve a dispute with a third party, you may notify our support at support@easygold.io or by opening a support ticket from within the Website’s Help & Support menu, so that we may consider what action to take if any.

    Transactions Limits. A registered User that has not completed KYC may only use our Website to the limited extent of $1,000 per day. A registered User that completed KYC may use our Website without any limit or impose a limit on the amount of his daily transactions. 

    Customer Support. If you have any issues or concerns regarding your account or your use of the Services, you should check our Website’s FAQ to see if there is already an existing solution. If a solution is not found, please submit a ticket through our Website’s Help & Support module, allowing Users to create a Support Ticket. Our Customer Support team will work on the resolution and get back to you within 1-15 business days. Our Finance team will process all the withdrawal requests within 5-15 business days automatically. All registered users who have completed the KYC can receive support assistance from our Customer Support Team. Our Customer Support team will do their best to respond to your inquiries in a timely fashion and assist you in solving your support ticket. Any User communicating with our Customer Support team, be it a registered or non-registered User, must communicate professionally and responsibly and refrain from abusing our team members. This includes, but is not limited to: using vulgar language, sending death threats, spamming the Customer Support team with multiple support tickets, and using multiple accounts to contact our support team for the same support ticket inquiry. No matter the context and reason, all Users must refrain from threatening our Customer Support team (especially when they are attempting to solve a support inquiry) in the likes that the User will take some sort of legal action and/or the filing of a claim to a government agency or independent business bureau, against the Customer Support team member(s) or the Company and its Service Providers if their inquiry is not solved or is unsolvable. By doing so, the Customer Support staff may discontinue further communicating with the User, may cancel all applicable pending transaction and/or traders orders conducted by the User on the Website, and may reject the User’s KYC application; leading to the User no longer be able to facilitate any transactions on the Website. Our Customer Support Department does its best to solve any and all inquiries sent to it by Users, and the staff will not tolerate disrespect and unprofessionalism by the Userbase.

Virtual Currencies may be extremely volatile. Virtual Currency technology is extremely nascent and unproven. Virtual Currency software and providers are regularly subject to hacking attempts resulting in loss of funds. Read the government warning here for more details on Virtual Currencies.

They are also not protected by government deposit protection schemes. These currencies may be extremely volatile. Stablecoin and commodity-backed cryptocurrency technology are extremely nascent and unproven. Stablecoin and commodity-backed cryptocurrency software and providers are regularly subject to hacking attempts resulting in loss of funds. Read the U.S. Department of Treasury analysis here for more details on Stablecoins.

      Digital Assets. Similar to Virtual Currencies, Digital Assets are not backed by governments or central banks. They are not protected by government deposit protection schemes. Digital Assets may be extremely volatile. Digital Assets technology is extremely nascent and unproven. Digital Assets, software, and providers are regularly subject to hacking attempts resulting in loss of funds.

      Protocol failure. A Virtual Currency protocol may fail to result in a total loss of Virtual Currencies held by Users.

      Disasters. Disasters may damage the Virtual Currencies systems resulting in the loss of Virtual Currencies held by Users. 

      Hack. It is always possible that the Services’ front-end, back-end, cold, and/or hot wallet may be the victim of a successful hack. As seen on other branded wallets and crypto exchanges, hackers’ main aim is to steal User funds. Virtual currencies, Stablecoins, and Commodity-backed cryptocurrencies.

In such an event, there may be no remedy, and holders of Cryptocurrencies are not guaranteed any remedy, refund, or compensation. The regulatory status of Cryptocurrencies is currently unsettled, varies among jurisdictions, and is subject to significant uncertainty. It is possible that in the future, certain laws, regulations, policies or rules relating to cryptography and cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, or blockchain applications may be implemented which directly or indirectly affect or restrict cryptographic coins/token holders’ right to acquire, own, hold, sell, convert, trade, or use Cryptocurrency. The uncertainty in tax legislation relating to cryptography and Cryptocurrencies (including digital assets) may expose Cryptocurrency holders to tax consequences associated with the use or trading of Cryptocurrencies. Digital assets and financial products and services carry significant risks. Our Company is not responsible for any potential loss in case of issuer’s problems. Potential purchasers should independently assess the nature of relevant risks and their own appetite for them and consult their advisers before making any decisions.
