Terms of use

These terms are a contract between you and AI WEB3 SERVICES PTY LTD (ACN 696 596 406, ABN 43 696 596 406), an Australian proprietary company in New South Wales.

They cover this website at aiweb3.co.im and any analytical view we publish in future. A published view may carry supplementary terms, which prevail over these for that view where the two conflict.

Using this website means accepting these terms. If you do not accept them, stop using the site. There is nothing here that requires an account, so leaving costs you nothing.

Nothing has shipped. At the date of this version there is no service to subscribe to, no price list and no customer, and these terms therefore govern your use of a website that publishes information about what is being built.

AI WEB3 SERVICES PTY LTD builds read only analytical views over data that is already public on permissionless blockchains. The following four statements are contractual terms and not marketing copy, which means you may rely on them and hold us to them.

1. No custody

We do not hold, control, move, safeguard or have any technical means of accessing anyone's assets, private keys, seed phrases, wallets or funds. We construct no transaction, sign nothing, and broadcast nothing to any chain. Nothing we operate will ask you to connect a wallet, approve an allowance, sign a message or send funds.

2. No exchange

We do not match, route, execute, clear or settle any trade. We operate no order book, no matching engine, no over the counter desk, no request for quote system and no facility through which offers to acquire or dispose of anything are regularly made or accepted. We are not a digital currency exchange provider and hold no AUSTRAC registration as one.

3. No token

We have not issued, minted, distributed, sold, airdropped or promoted a token, coin, non fungible token or other digital asset, and we do not intend to. There is no presale, no allocation, no points scheme convertible into anything, and nobody is authorised to offer one on our behalf.

4. No advice

Dealt with in the next section, because it needs more than a paragraph.

What that means in practice

• Nothing we publish is a recommendation, a rating, a signal, a price target, a valuation or an opinion about whether to acquire, hold or dispose of anything.
• Nothing we publish takes account of your objectives, your financial situation or your needs. We do not know them and we do not ask.
• We give no personal advice and no general advice as those terms are used in the Corporations Act.
• We make no offer and no invitation to acquire or dispose of a financial product, and we do not arrange for anybody else to.
• We do not manage anybody's portfolio, hold a discretionary mandate, or accept an instruction to do anything with anybody's holdings.

Factual information is not advice, and we intend to keep it that way

Publishing a number that is already on a public chain is the publication of a fact. Wrapping that number in a suggestion about what to do next is something else. The views we build are designed to sit on the factual side of that line, and where a view could not be built without crossing it, the view does not get built.

Risk

Digital assets are volatile and speculative. Prices can fall to zero. Protocols fail, bridges are exploited, keys are lost, and transactions are irreversible. You can lose the whole of your money. If you are making a decision about any of this, consider obtaining advice from somebody who holds an Australian Financial Services Licence and who is accountable for that advice.

Accuracy of what we publish

Public chain data can be reorganised, an archival provider can serve a stale or incomplete response, a contract can be misdecoded, and our arithmetic can be wrong. We do not warrant that anything published is accurate, complete or current, and you must not treat it as the sole basis for any decision. This does not affect the consumer guarantees in the next section, which we cannot exclude and are not trying to.

The Australian Consumer Law is Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth). If you acquire goods or services from us as a consumer within the meaning of that Law, you have statutory guarantees including that services will be supplied with due care and skill, that they will be fit for any purpose you made known, and that goods will be of acceptable quality and match their description.

The statutory wording

Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. For a major failure with a service, you are entitled to cancel your service contract with us and to a refund for the unused portion, or to compensation for its reduced value. You are also entitled to be compensated for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. If the failure does not amount to a major failure, you are entitled to have the problem rectified in a reasonable time and, if this is not done, to cancel your contract and obtain a refund for the unused portion of the contract.

Misleading or deceptive conduct

Section 18 of the Australian Consumer Law prohibits conduct in trade or commerce that is misleading or deceptive or likely to mislead or deceive. Nothing in these terms excludes liability for that, and nothing can. The four prohibitions and the honest status labels on the home page exist partly because of this section, and if you think anything we publish is misleading, tell us and tell the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission.

Limitation to the extent the Law permits

To the extent the Australian Consumer Law permits, our liability for failure to comply with a guarantee other than a guarantee under sections 51 to 53 of that Law is limited, at our election, to resupplying the services or paying the cost of having them resupplied.

You may read this website, quote from it with attribution, link to it, and print it. No permission is required for any of that.

What you may not do

• Present anything from this site as advice, as ours if you have changed it, or as an endorsement of you, your product or your protocol.
• Use our name, or a name confusingly similar to it, in a way that suggests an association that does not exist.
• Attempt unauthorised access to any part of this site or the systems behind it, or probe, scan or test their security without telling us first.
• Send automated traffic at a volume that degrades the site for other people. Reasonable crawling is fine. Ignoring the robots file and hammering the origin is not.
• Use the site to distribute malware, to phish, or to impersonate us.

Impersonation, and what we will never ask you

We will never ask you to connect a wallet, sign a message, approve a token allowance, disclose a private key or seed phrase, install an extension, or send funds anywhere. Any communication that does is not from us regardless of how convincing it looks. We have no social accounts and no support agents. Our only address is the one on the contact page.

Everything we read is already public. That is a strength and it is also a set of limits worth stating in the contract rather than discovering later.

Where the data comes from

• Public blockchain nodes and archival data providers, which serve blocks, transactions, receipts, logs and state.
• Publicly verified contract source code and application binary interfaces, where a publisher has chosen to publish them.

We hold no private data feed, no exchange order flow, no customer deposit list and no off chain identity source, and we will not acquire one.

What public chain data cannot tell you

• Who. An address is a pseudonym. Any claim to know the person behind one is an inference, and we do not make it.
• Why. A transfer records that value moved. It does not record a reason, a contract between the parties, or whether either of them intended it.
• Whether it is final. Chains reorganise. A view built on recent blocks is provisional and we will label it as such.
• Everything. Private chains, off chain agreements, custodial internal ledgers and anything netted inside an exchange are invisible from outside, and their absence can make a public picture badly misleading.

No attribution, as a term of this contract

We will not attribute a public address to a named individual or organisation, publish a risk or taint score for an address, or supply an output designed to be used to freeze, restrict or refuse service to a person. If you are looking for that, we are the wrong company, and we would rather say so here than in a sales call.

Third party rights

Where a data source imposes terms on the data it serves, we comply with them, and you must not use anything we publish in a way that would breach them. Where a source withdraws access, a view depending on it may stop working, and that is a risk of building on other people's infrastructure that we cannot contract away.

No availability commitment

This website is provided as it is. We make no commitment about uptime, we offer no service level and no service credits, and we may take the site down at any time for maintenance or for any other reason. Nothing is being charged for, so nothing is being promised.

Nothing has shipped

There is no live analytical view, no beta, no early access programme and no waiting list. Any status label on the home page describes the position on the day you read it. We update those labels before we announce anything, not afterwards.

If a view is ever published and then withdrawn

Where a published view is discontinued, we will give at least 60 days notice on this website, we will disable new sign ups immediately on announcement, and where anybody has paid for anything we will deal with refunds on the merits under the Australian Consumer Law rather than pointing at a clause. This commitment is made now, while it costs nothing, so that it cannot be quietly omitted later.

Changes to these terms

The version in force is the one published on this page with the effective date at the top. Where a change materially reduces your rights, we will publish a note at the top of this page for at least 30 days before it takes effect. Changes do not apply retrospectively.

We own or licence the material on this website, including its text, its layout, the AI Web3 Services name, and the code behind it. The underlying public blockchain data is not ours and we claim nothing over it.

Permitted without asking

• Quoting from this site for news reporting, criticism, review, research or commentary, with attribution and a link.
• Linking to any page here, including deep links.
• Reproducing the four prohibitions in full, with attribution. We would be pleased if more companies in this sector published something similar.

Not permitted

• Reproducing substantial parts of this site as your own content, or presenting our words as somebody else's.
• Using our name or marks as the primary identifier of your product, channel or token.
• Training a machine learning model on this site where doing so would breach the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth).

Fair dealing

Nothing here limits fair dealing under the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth) for criticism, review, parody, satire, research, study or news reporting.

Copyright and trade mark complaints

Write to contact@aiweb3.co.im with Legal in the subject line. Identify the work, what you say infringes it, the basis of your rights and your contact details, and we will deal with it.

Personal information handling is set out in the privacy policy, which forms part of these terms. It is written to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles, and it explains in detail when public blockchain data can be personal information and what we refuse to do with it.

Nothing in these terms reduces a right you have under that policy or under the Privacy Act. Where the two documents appear to conflict on a privacy question, the privacy policy governs.

This section must be read with the Australian Consumer Law section above, which overrides it wherever that Law applies.

What we are responsible for

Loss that is a reasonably foreseeable result of our breach of these terms or our negligence, and anything that the law does not permit us to limit, including fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, breach of a non excludable consumer guarantee, and liability for misleading or deceptive conduct.

What we are not responsible for

• Any decision you make about acquiring, holding or disposing of any digital asset. Those decisions are yours, and nothing we publish is advice.
• Loss caused by a public blockchain, a protocol, a bridge, a contract or a third party service, none of which we operate or control.
• Loss caused by somebody impersonating us, where you acted on a communication that was not ours.
• Loss caused by a data source serving inaccurate, stale or incomplete data.
• Loss of profit, revenue, business, goodwill, anticipated saving or data, suffered in the course of a business rather than as a consumer.
• Loss that was not reasonably foreseeable at the time these terms were accepted.

Cap

To the extent the law permits, our total liability in connection with this website and anything we publish, whether in contract, in tort including negligence, under statute or otherwise, is limited to the greater of the total amount you have paid us in the preceding 12 months and one hundred Australian dollars. Since nothing is currently for sale, in practice that figure is one hundred Australian dollars. The cap does not apply to any liability that cannot be limited by law.

These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales and the applicable laws of the Commonwealth of Australia. Both parties submit to the non exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales and of the courts hearing appeals from them.

Non exclusive means you may bring proceedings elsewhere where the law gives you that right. If you are a consumer resident outside Australia, nothing here deprives you of the mandatory consumer protection of the place you live.

Before litigation

Write to contact@aiweb3.co.im and set out what you want. This is a request rather than a precondition, and it is not a waiver of anything.

Cheaper routes than a court

We are not a member of the Australian Financial Complaints Authority, because membership is required of financial services licensees and we hold no licence and provide no financial service. If you were told otherwise by somebody using our name, that person was not us.

Severance

A provision that is invalid or unenforceable is read down so far as necessary, or severed, and the rest of these terms continue in force.

No waiver

Not enforcing a provision on one occasion is not a waiver of it, and does not prevent us enforcing it later.

Assignment

You may not assign your rights under these terms. We may assign ours on a sale of the business, and your rights under these terms and the privacy policy transfer with them. A buyer takes the business subject to the four prohibitions as they stood on the day you last used the site.

Entire agreement

These terms, the privacy policy, the cookie notice and any supplementary terms for a published view are the whole of the agreement between us about their subject matter. Nothing in this paragraph excludes liability for misleading or deceptive conduct, which cannot be contracted out of.

Not legal advice

This is a professionally structured document. It is not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for advice from an Australian legal practitioner on your own circumstances.
