I. Konto.com Exchange General Terms and Conditions
1. Introduction and Acceptance of Terms
These Terms And Conditions (T&Cs), shall govern Your use of this Website and Konto.com Exchange Services provided here, including all pages within this website (collectively referred to herein below as this “Website”). These T&Cs apply in full force and effect to Your use of this Website and services provided here. By using this Website (hereinafter “website” includes Website, Android, IOS, native apps and any other supported operating system), You expressly accept all T&Cs contained herein in full. Please read them carefully before use. You must not use this Website, if You have any objection to any of these T&Cs.
This Website and the services provided are not to be used by any person under 18 years of age, and You must not use this Website and the services provided here if You are under 18 years of age. It is Your responsibility to keep your account secure.
You shall take time and carefully read these T&Cs (both General Terms and Specific Terms) before using the services provided by Konto.com Service Provider or through Konto.com Website, so You are fully aware of Your rights and obligations.
Keep in mind that by using these services (even only by completing the sign-up process), You both actively agree with these T&Cs and enter into contractual relations with Konto.com Exchange Service Provider.
The rights and obligations of Your service provider through the Konto.com Service Provider Website and Your rights and obligations are governed by the general provisions of these T&Cs as well as the specific section corresponding to the type of service You are using. Please note the general as well as the specific provisions depending on the type of service.
The meaning of certain terms or notions used in these T&Cs:
• Fiat money or legal tender meaning a government-issued currency that is not backed by a physical commodity, such as gold or silver, but rather by the government that issued it.
• "Reward" / “Bonus” within the Konto.com platform is explicitly defined as an intangible and non-material incentive, devoid of any intrinsic monetary value, expressly granted to participants or users. These rewards are strictly conceptual and entirely fictional, existing solely within the virtual environment of the Konto.com platform at the sole discretion of Konto.com Service Provider. It is imperative to note that these rewards hold no legal standing or implications for Konto.com Service Provider. They do not represent tangible, real-world items but are intentionally crafted elements intended to enhance the overall user experience on the Konto.com platform.
This term, "Reward," explicitly disclaims and should not be construed as an offer, a commitment, or the assurance of actual rewards by Konto.com Service Provider. It serves purely as a descriptor for the intangible, virtual elements incorporated within the platform to augment the users' experience, and in no manner suggests any legally binding obligation on the part of Konto.com Service Provider to provide actual, tangible rewards or promises thereof. Any implications or interpretations suggesting otherwise are expressly disclaimed.

Additionally, the range of services available to You will depend in part upon the country of which You are a resident and from which You access Konto.com Exchange. The Konto.com Service Provider reserves the right to restrict or deny its services in certain countries, e.g. countries designated as high risk by the FATF, EU and UK government.

(i) such legal entity is duly organised and validly existing under the applicable laws of the jurisdiction of its organisation; and
(ii) You are duly authorised by the legal entity to act on its behalf.
Only a person residing in the European Economic Area (EEA) or having citizenship in the EEA or a citizen of Argentina, which is not a high-risk country due to sanctions or for money laundering or terrorist financing, can be a customer of Konto.com Exchange. The use of Konto.com Exchange Website is prohibited to citizens and residents of the United States of America (USA) including the situation where an USA citizen resides in EEA.
Only a person who has not previously been suspended, blocked or removed from using Konto.com Exchange Services can be a customer of Konto.com Exchange.
Konto.com Exchange does not accept clients who qualify as politically exposed persons (PEP), members of their family or friends, or associates of PEP as defined in the legislation on the prevention of money laundering and combating terrorism financing (AML/CTF).
A demo account with Konto.com Exchange can be opened. The purpose of the demo account is to allow those interested to familiarise themselves with the functionality of Konto.com Exchange. A demo account provides limited access to the Website resources (information, news, user interface, public documents of the Website, etc.), but it does not allow You to carry out any transactions with crypto-assets or fiat money.
Depending on Konto.com Service Provider partnerships and strategies, the demo account with Konto.com Exchange can or may, depending on the situation, for limited periods of time, display a digital representation of crypto assets that are purely fictional and have no legal bearing for Konto.com Service Provider.
To become the holder of a full-fledged client account (other than a demo account) on Konto.com Exchange, the Client will have to perform a sign-up procedure prior to disposing of crypto-assets or fiat money through their account, in which they will have to provide real, accurate and complete data in order to properly identify them (Know-Your-Customer (KYC) procedure).
The Client will have to provide, upon request of the Konto.com Service Provider, at the sign-up moment or whenever subsequently requested, new evidence of the conformity and reality of the data provided, supporting documents and documents proving the source of funds, source of wealth, proof of address, proof of bank account ownership or other documents. Konto.com Service Provider has the right to suspend/block or close Your account if You delay or refuse or take no action to communicate back or to provide documents or information as requested by Konto.com Service Provider, in a certain timeframe settled through the same channels, without any further notification provided to You.
Clients will also be required to complete questionnaires enabling the Konto.com Service Provider to build up a user profile that will serve for the analysis of the risks and financial comfort of the operations in which the Client engages.
No occasional transactions may be initiated on the Konto.com Exchange platform by persons who have not opened a client account nor by Clients.
The Konto.com Service Provider may at any time decide to terminate the contractual relationship with any of the clients, in which case the Client's account activity will be suspended except for the transfer of his funds (fiat or crypto assets) to another provider or personal ledger. Even this transfer to another provider of the Customer's funds may be temporarily suspended at the discretion of Konto.com Service Provider, for example in case of suspicion of committing a financial crime. Such a decision to terminate is at the discretion of the Konto.com Service Provider and will not need to be justified in any way.
A Customer will be immediately suspended or blocked from the provision of services if it is discovered that they have provided false data to Konto.com Service Provider or carried out any type of financial crime or illegal activity on/through the Konto.com Exchange website.

The Konto.com Service Provider reserves the right to enforce this provision and takes necessary actions in accordance with its internal policies and regulatory obligations.
7.4. Staking
Staking in Name Only. Staking in Name Only (SINO) pertains to the practice of token staking without active engagement in network validation or maintenance processes. By participating in SINO You acknowledge that Your contributions do not substantively enhance the security or functionality of a network. It is understood that users engaging in SINO may be ineligible for rewards or benefits typically associated with native/active or other types of staking participation. Any instances of fraudulent or deceptive behaviour aimed at manipulating the staking system through SINO may incur penalties, including, but not limited to, the forfeiture of staked tokens and the suspension or termination of associated services. Users are advised to engage in staking activities in good faith and to adhere to these Terms and Conditions.
Konto.com Service Provider may offer an "earn" or "staking" program where users lock up specific cryptocurrencies to earn rewards on spot or over time. During the lock-up period, staked tokens are inaccessible and restricted from being swapped, withdrawn or transferred. The length of time for which tokens are locked up can vary from project to project. The staking lock-up period is a mechanism designed to incentivise Clients participation. Where applicable breaking the lock-up period or attempting to withdraw staked tokens prematurely may result in penalties, such as losing a portion of the staked tokens or forfeiting earned rewards. Konto.com Service Provider reserves the right to suspend or terminate at any time and without notice any SINO lock-down period or project and You acknowledge and agree that any losses due to suspension or termination of the SINO project or lock-down period cannot be held against Konto.com Service Provider.
"Staking in Name Only" (SINO) - You acknowledge and agree that SINO is a co-opted word, completely separated from proof-of-stake or other staking services, describing a program presented by Konto.com Service Provider that is not genuine staking but rather an opportunity to participate in reward-generating activities, where Your direct involvement in blockchain consensus processes or network security is absent.

Funding Your Konto.com Account.
In order to complete an order or trade via the Konto.com Services, You must first load funds to Your Konto.com Account using one of the approved External Accounts identified via the Services. Konto.com Exchange is entitled to check whether You control the external account You use to upload funds to Your Konto.com Account, in which case You are obliged to provide the requested documents and information. You may be charged fees by the External Account You use to fund Your Konto.com Account. Your Konto.com Exchange provider is not responsible for any External Account fees or for the management and security of any External Account. You are solely responsible for Your use of any External Account. The timing associated with a load transaction will depend in part upon the performance of third parties responsible for maintaining the applicable External Account, and Your Konto.com Service Provider makes no guarantee regarding the amount of time it may take to load funds into Your Konto.com Account.
The relationship between You and Konto.com Service Provider is based on a supply agreement. Konto.com Service Provider provides You with crypto assets against payment in fiat money. Loading Your account means, in effect, an advance payment into Konto.com Service Provider's bank account of the price of the crypto assets that will be provided to You based on firm orders that You subsequently place. Fiat advances will be evidenced in Your account by a numerical representation of the money paid to Konto.com Account, so that You will always be informed about the balance of unused advances for the supply of crypto-assets. The amount shown in Your account does not mean that You are depositing fiat money into a bank account or similar account opened by Konto.com Service Provider for the safekeeping of Your money, nor that Konto.com Service Provider would temporarily hold your money, but means that You are making an advance payment for goods under a commercial contract. In Your account, You will find information about the advances You have paid to Konto.com Service Provider under the supply contract and which You have not yet used for the purchase of cryptocurrencies or the payment of fees. Payment of a deposit to Konto.com Service Provider means the advance payment You make under the supply contract, and from these advances, the crypto assets You order for purchase under separate orders will be settled, separate orders that You will launch on the Konto.com Exchange platform when You wish to do so. At any time You may request Konto.com Service Provider to withdraw the balance of the advances You have not used to purchase crypto assets. However, Your balance cannot be used directly by You for payment to third parties (as You could do in the case of accounts opened with banks or Electronic Money Institutions (EMIs)) but can only be refunded to You at the original payment method.

This does not apply to direct purchase of cryptocurrency.
You declare and warrant that the funds, which You have topped up or will top up in Your Konto.com Account, are not derived from money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other illegal or criminal activity under any Applicable Law in the respective jurisdiction.
