We have not vetted the supported crypto-assets in any way and our support of any crypto-assets cannot be interpreted as any kind of recommendation or financial advice.
4.3. Forks. You agree and understand that the underlying protocols of the crypto-asset networks are subject to changes, the so-called forks, which may result in more than one version of such network. In the event of a fork, we may temporarily suspend any of the services (with or without advance notice to you) and we may determine, in our sole discretion, whether or not to support the forked network(s).
4.4. Transaction Rules and Fees. Transactions are carried out through third parties. For this reason, You must ensure that Your transactions conform to the applicable rules of the selected crypto-asset network as well as rules set out by the provider of payment gateway services. There may be transaction fees (e.g. mining fees or fees for a payment processing) associated with your transactions that are required by third party.

Simplio hereby reserves the right to a fee for the execution of the swap, that is, for the purchase of assets (mainly but not excluding tokens in their fungible and non-fungible form), exchange of fiat money for cryptocurrency and vice versa. You are always properly informed about the amount of the fee before carrying out a specific transaction.
4.5. Transaction Record. The only authentic record of crypto-asset transaction is the relevant crypto-asset blockchain. The Application allows you to send crypto-asset transfer instructions into the relevant crypto-asset network. We cannot guarantee that any transaction you perform via the Application shall be eventually recorded in any blockchain. The successful execution and record of the transaction depends especially on the amount of transaction fee you choose and the functionality of the selected crypto-asset network.
4.6. Swap. Simplio in the Application provides a swap service, which represents both the possibility of direct purchase of assets that can be used in individual games, as well as the exchange of funds for cryptocurrency and vice versa. Please note, that due to market fluctuations, even after you confirm the swap in the Application and until the swap is completed, the swap can be delayed and in the extreme scenario even canceled.

6. Risk Disclosure
6.1. Investment and Online Trading Risks. Crypto-assets are in general extremely volatile and their value can go rapidly up or down. If the value falls substantially, you may also not be able to sell your crypto-assets as there may be less demand for it in the market. Moreover, there are risks associated with utilizing an Internet-based trading system, including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and Internet connections. Therefore, there can be a substantial risk that you lose money buying, selling, holding, or investing in crypto-assets and crypto-assets may not be suitable for you as a store of value. You should carefully consider whether trading or holding crypto-assets is suitable for you in light of your financial situation.
6.2. Other Technical Risks. Using crypto-assets and relevant software necessarily involves some degree of risk. Crypto-assets are based on autonomous and largely unregulated digital systems. These systems rely on peer-to-peer networking and cryptography to maintain its integrity and its functioning is often experimental.
6.3. Third-party Integrations. The Application contains libraries developed by third parties that support a particularly crypto-asset network. These libraries are needed to interact with a particular crypto-asset network. We provide access to these third-party libraries as part of the Application based on the user's choice to use the specific crypto-asset, but we cannot be held liable for any malfunction.
You also acknowledge that Simplio is not the operator of any of the games and these are only made available for use through the Application.
6.4. Regulatory Risks. The regulatory and legal status of crypto-assets and associated services is unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is often difficult to predict how exactly will governmental authorities regulate such technologies in future. Any such changes could negatively impact the supported crypto-assets and functioning of the App in various ways.
6.5. Tax Risks. Proper taxation of gains on crypto-assets investments and trading is often very complex and sometimes also as-yet unclear. The user, therefore, needs to seek professional advice in this respect.
7. No Warranty
7.1. Provided without Warranty. To the maximum extent permissible by law, the Application is provided to you as-is, and without any warranty whatsoever.
7.2. Availability. Simplio does not guarantee that the Application or any of its services will be constantly available and that it will always operate in a bug-free manner.
7.3. Transaction Delays. Simplio shall not be liable for any losses resulting from or arising out of transaction delays.
7.4. Forks. You acknowledge the risks presented by forks, as described in Section 4 of these terms, and hereby accept that Simplio has no responsibility for any losses or damage arising as a result of an unsupported forked network(s).
7.5. Discontinuation. We may, in our sole discretion, with or without prior notice, and at any time, modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any portion of our services. Simplio and its associated companies shall not be held responsible or liable for any loss of crypto-assets if we discontinue or reject the services.
Likewise, game operators have the option to stop operating the games, as a result of which a specific game may cease to be part of the Application game offer at any time. Simplio is not responsible for any damage You incur as a result of the game operator ceasing to operate the games.
8. Limitation of Liability
Except for situation when Simplio intentionally causes damage, in no event shall Simplio or its associated companies be liable to you for any loss of profit, data, costs or damages stemming from loss of production or usage, business interruption or procurement/creation of substitute service which have occurred during your use of the Application and services as Simplio and its associated companies cannot control, affect and/or guarantee operation of the 3rd party components (or solutions) integrated into the services.
Since Simplio provides you the services free of charge, you agree that Simplio and its associated companies shall be liable to you for damage, that can be foreseen at the time of concluding this Terms, up to the amount of the profit of Simplio from your swap operation.
Simplio and its associated companies expressly disclaim any costs, damages or loss of profit arising from:
Any unauthorized use of your private key or Recovery Seed due to your failure to maintain the security of this information according to these terms;
Any interruption to or in our services;
Any bugs, viruses or the like that are found in and that may be transmitted through our services;

Any communication delays between the Application and a node or relay service for a crypto-asset (and vice versa), failure to achieve a specific market value/price for a crypto-asset, whether through a third-party service or any other kind of transaction.
9. Indemnity
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless us and any associated companies (and each of our officers, directors, members, employees, agents and affiliates) from any claim, demand, action, damage, loss, cost or expense, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out or relating to (a) your use of, or conduct in connection with, our services; (b) your violation of these terms; or (c) your violation of any rights of any other person or entity.
