Terms & Conditions

Last updated 12/05/2022

AGREEMENT TO TERMS

These Terms and Conditions constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”) and Outgrid LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) concerning your access to and use of the messaging application Outgrid related, or otherwise connected thereto (collectively, the “App”).

By accessing the App, you agree that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, you are expressly prohibited from using the App, and you must discontinue use immediately.Supplemental Terms and Conditions or documents posted on the App from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. In our sole discretion, we reserve the right to make changes or modifications to these Terms and Conditions at any time and for any reason.

We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last Updated” date of these Terms and Conditions, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Terms and Conditions to stay informed of updates. You will be subject to and will be deemed to have realized and accepted the changes in any revised Terms and Conditions by your continued use of the App after the date such revised Terms and Conditions are posted.

The information provided on the App is not intended for distribution to or used by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country.

Those persons who choose to access the App from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws if and to the extent local laws apply.

The App is intended for users at least 18 years of age. All users who are minors in the jurisdiction in which they reside (under the age of 18 or 21) must have permission and be directly supervised by their parent or guardian to use the App. If you are a minor, you must have your parent or guardian read and agree to these Terms and Conditions before using the App.


THE APP

This App or any information on it may not be interpreted as advice to invest either equity or crypto assets.

The App:

  1. provides the possibility for direct messaging or sending audio recordings, the creation of private one-on-one chats and groups which are using encryption technology, and for open streaming—the creation of an open channel visible and accessible for any users (not encrypted);
  2. provides crypto wallet services, which provide you with the possibility to receive, send or keep your digital assets (cryptocurrencies, tokens, or NFTs) without the option to buy or sell them;
  3. the App contains links to other internet instruments and Apps, including cryptocurrency exchanges, which are managed by different operators, enabling to conclude the transaction for the acquisition of cryptocurrencies. However, the App is not a party to this transaction. When you click on any link of any third party (e.g., crypto exchange), you will be redirected to their web pages, which the App does not manage, and the App bears no liability for the services rendered by third persons;
  4. at the current moment, all the services are rendered free of charge. Outgrid retains the right to change the fee policy upon a prior notice with the due time in advance.


The rights and obligations of the App and you differ depending on the use of the App:

  If you are using the App for information and messaging purposes only, you must download the App and identify yourself with a valid telephone number by creating a username of your choice – name, surname, or pseudonym, no other personal data is collected. The App may collect information from the cookies about the use of the App for statistical and other purposes. Please see the Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy for more detailed information. If you subscribe to our newsletter, you will be required to submit the e-mail address to which the newsletters shall be delivered. The e-mail will be used only for the delivery of the newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time. For more detailed information, please see our Privacy Policy.

  If you choose to use the App for crypto wallet services, you agree to the following conditions:

  • We will provide you with the possibility to receive, send or keep your digital assets (cryptocurrencies, tokens, or NFTs) without the possibility to buy or sell them for money or other means;
  • A digital key for your access to your crypto wallet will be created only for your personal use, and we will neither have the key nor will have an insight into the contents of your crypto wallet (other than the amount of the required  entry cryptocurrencies, tokens or NFT’s held by you at the event of joining an asset-based community or room).
