Terms and Conditions
Modified: July 20, 2023
DISCLAIMER: THE VALUE OF NFTS AND
DIGITAL REWARDS ARE DERIVED FROM SUPPLY AND DEMAND IN THE GLOBAL MARKETPLACE,
WHICH CAN RISE OR FALL INDEPENDENT OF ANY GOVERNMENT CURRENCY. HOLDING NFTS AND
DIGITAL REWARDS CARRIES EXCHANGE RATE AND OTHER TYPES OF RISK. THE VALUE OF NFTS
AND DIGITAL REWARDS MAY BE DERIVED FROM THE CONTINUED WILLINGNESS OF MARKET
PARTICIPANTS TO EXCHANGE TRADITIONAL GOVERNMENT CURRENCY FOR DIGITAL REWARDS,
WHICH MAY RESULT IN THE POTENTIAL FOR PERMANENT AND TOTAL LOSS OF VALUE OF A
PARTICULAR DIGITAL REWARD SHOULD THE MARKET DISAPPEAR. THE VOLATILITY AND
UNPREDICTABILITY OF THE PRICE AND VALUE OF NFTS AND DIGITAL REWARDS, RELATIVE
TO GOVERNMENT CURRENCY, MAY RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT LOSS OVER A SHORT PERIOD OF
TIME. UPLEVLL DOES NOT AND CANNOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANT THE VALUE OF ANY NFT,
DIGITAL REWARD OR BLOCKCHAIN, INCLUDING THE PIXLL BLOCKCHAIN AND PXL REWARD,
AND EXPLICITLY WARNS THE USER THAT THERE IS NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT ANY NFT,
DIGITAL REWARD, OR BLOCKCHAIN REWARD WILL INCREASE IN VALUE AND THAT THEY MAY
HOLD NO VALUE, DECREASE IN VALUE, OR ENTIRELY LOSE VALUE.

USER AFFIRMS HE/SHE IS OVER
THE AGE OF 18 OR THE LEGAL AGE OF MAJORITY WHERE THE USER RESIDES IF THAT
JURISDICTION HAS AN OLDER AGE OF MAJORITY, AS THE BUMP WALLET AND UPLEVLL
SERVICES ARE NOT INTENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER AGE 18 OR THOSE THAT HAVE NOT
REACHED THE AGE OF MAJORITY.
1. UPLEVLL SERVICES.
PIXLL Blockchain is a
decentralized distributed application on a blockchain network, using smart
contracts (each a “Smart Contract”) to enable its Users to own, buy, sell,
transfer, and share unique digital rewards that can be visualized on the Site
through the BUMP Wallet. To use the UPLEVLL Services, you need compatible
hardware, software (latest version recommended and sometimes required) and
Internet access (depending on the Service). The UPLEVLL Services’ performance
may be affected by these factors.
1.1 PIXLL Node. PIXLL Node is a computer software
and/or hardware system connected to the PIXLL Blockchain. The PIXLL Node
supports blockchain work by maintaining the cryptography and confirming
transactions on the PIXLL Blockchain. It is foreseeable that at the option of
the User, the PIXLL Node may be recommissioned by the User to support other
blockchains or other technologies. Used herein, “PIXLL Node” may
represent either the node itself or a license the User obtains to run the node.
The PIXLL Nodes when combined form the “PIXLL Node Network.”
1.2 PIXLL Blockchain. The PIXLL Blockchain allows each
User to store digital rewards, and other attributes on the PIXLL Blockchain
public ledger that allows for decentralized, immutable record of ownership.
When a User purchases, earns, or receives any digital reward through the Smart
Contract process, the User owns completely and outright the digital reward.
1.3 PXL Reward. Each User of any service on the PIXLL
Blockchain and associated PIXLL Node may be able to earn the PXL Reward. The PXL
Reward is a digital reward and not a security token. The UPLEVLL Services and
Site are not being offered to investors and there is no Initial Coin Offering
(ICO) to promote PIXLL. Like BTC (which is the digital reward generated from
the Bitcoin Blockchain), PXL is created through a unique blockchain protocol.
Although PXL Reward may one day have market adoption, its utility may reside
solely within the PIXLL Blockchain, and may or may not have value.
1.4 BUMP Wallet
1.4.1. UPLEVLL will
provide each User with a BUMP Wallet to serve as the User’s wallet. UPLEVLLwill
never take custody or control over any digital rewards stored in a User’s BUMP
Wallet. The BUMP Wallet does not store, send or receive any NFT or digital
reward, but such transactions occur directly on the PIXLL Blockchain or other
supported blockchains. Instead of the BUMP Wallet, the User may use any
compatible digital app or wallet provided by a third-party company that safely
connects to the PIXLL Blockchain. A User may be able to use the BUMP Wallet or
other compatible wallet to send and receive digital rewards with other users of
the PIXLL Blockchain. PIXLL does not offer any User the ability to exchange one
form of currency for any other form of currency (fiat or digital). BUMP Wallet
is not a custodian, exchange or money transmitter.
1.4.2. When a User
creates a BUMP Wallet, the PIXLL Blockchain software generates a cryptographic
private key and public key pair that the User must use to send and receive any
digital reward supported on the PIXLL Blockchain. The User is solely
responsible for storing and keeping secret, outside of PIXLL’s Services, a
backup of any User’s BUMP Wallet credentials, private key(s), passwords, and
transaction information that the User maintains in the BUMP Wallet or otherwise
with the UPLEVLL Services. It is
recommended that User backup its BUMP Wallet. If the User does not backup the BUMP
Wallet, the User may not be able to access the BUMP Wallet in the event that UPLEVLL
discontinues some or all of the UPLEVLL Services. Any digital reward a User has
stored within its BUMP Wallet may become inaccessible if the User does not know
or keep secret its BUMP Wallet keys and passwords. UPLEVLL does not receive or
store a User’s app passwords, PIN, keys, network addresses or transaction
history. UPLEVLL cannot assist any User with app password or key retrieval. Any
third party with knowledge of one or more of a User’s credentials (including,
without limitation, a backup phrase, app identifier, password, or keys) can
dispose of the Digital reward in the User’s app.
1.4.3. For a
transaction to be validated on the PIXLL Blockchain, any UPLEVLL Transaction
through the BUMP Wallet must be confirmed and recorded in the distributed
ledger associated with the PIXLL Blockchain. The PIXLL Blockchain is a
decentralized, peer-to-peer network supported by the users of the PIXLL
Blockchain, which is not owned, controlled or operated by PIXLL.
1.4.4. UPLEVLL has no
control over digital rewards generated through the PIXLL Blockchain, and cannot
ensure that any transaction details a User submits via the UPLEVLL Services and
BUMP Wallet will be confirmed or processed on the PIXLL Blockchain. The User
agrees and understands that the transaction details submitted by the User via
the UPLEVLL Services and BUMP Wallet may not be completed or may be delayed by
the PIXLL Blockchain or any supporting blockchain used to process the
transaction. UPLEVLL does not guarantee that the BUMP Wallet can transfer title
or right in any NFT or digital reward, and UPLEVLL makes no warranties of title
of any kind. Once transaction details have been submitted to the PIXLL
Blockchain, UPLEVLL cannot assist the User to cancel or otherwise modify such
transaction or details.
1.4.5. In the event of
a fork of the PIXLL Blockchain or any other supported blockchain, UPLEVLL may
not be able to support the User’s activity related to PXL or any other
supported NFT or digital reward. The User agrees and understands that in the
event of a fork of the PIXLL Blockchain, any transaction associated with the BUMP
Wallet or UPLEVLL Services may not be completed, may be partially completed,
incorrectly completed, or substantially delayed. UPLEVLL is not responsible for
any loss incurred by any User caused in whole or in part, directly or
indirectly, by a fork of the PIXLL Blockchain.
1.4.6. UPLEVLL does
not currently charge a fee for the BUMP Wallet, receiving, sending, or storing
NFT and digital rewards. However, UPLEVLL reserves the right to do so in the
future, and in such case any applicable fees will be displayed prior to the
User incurring such fee. Notwithstanding, the PIXLL Blockchain may have
Blockchain Transaction Fees required to transact digital reward transactions
through the PIXLL Blockchain. UPLEVLL may attempt to calculate for the User any
Blockchain Transactions Fees, though such calculation may be inaccurate or
excessive. The User may select a greater or lesser fee, and the User is solely
responsible for paying any Blockchain Transaction Fees required on the PIXLL
Blockchain. UPLEVLL will neither advance nor fund any Blockchain Transaction
Fee on any User’s behalf, nor be responsible for any excess or insufficient fee
calculation.
1.4.7 The User shall be
responsible for all activities that occur through the BUMP WALLET and accepts
all risks of any authorized or unauthorized access to the BUMP Wallet, to the
maximum extent permitted by law. The User represents and warrants that the User
is familiar with and accepts the risks associated with digital apps and private
keys, including the risks described herein.
1.4.8. From time
to time, there may be programs in place to allow User to receive a reward, in
the form of PXL Reward, NFT, or otherwise, based on actions taken by the User,
whether it be by referral or other program in place at the time (“Additional
Rewards”). User understands that UPLEVLL makes no representations or
warrants regarding the Additional Rewards. Notwithstanding or limiting
the foregoing, UPLEVLL further makes no representations or warrants surrounding
the operation of any UPLEVLL Services or that said UPLEVLL Services/Additional
Rewards will be error-free or uninterrupted. User accepts the sole responsibility
for taking any and all actions to obtain any Additional Rewards, and holds UPLEVLL
harmless for any opportunity cost or losses that occur as a result of
the non-receipt of anticipated Additional Rewards, monetary or
otherwise.
You can use the UPLEVLL Services for free or for a charge, either of which is a “UPLEVLL Transaction.” Each UPLEVLL Transaction is an electronic contract between you and UPLEVLL and/or you and the entity providing the UPLEVLL Service as contracted by UPLEVLL. UPLEVLL will charge your selected payment method for any UPLEVLL Transaction that requires payment. If your chosen payment method cannot be charged for any reason (such as expiration or insufficient funds), you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts, and we may attempt to charge you again or request that you provide another payment method. Unless otherwise provided, all UPLEVLL Transactions are non-refundable and final.
2.1. Annual License and Monthly Service Fees.
The User shall pay a one-time PIXLL Node license fee and the then-current
monthly service fee(s) for UPLEVLL Services. UPLEVLL or any of its affiliates
or third parties may be the party that sells the software or hardware for any PIXLL
Node.
2.2. Software License.
The User may be required to
enter into a software license agreement with UPLEVLL or any third party for the
use of any required software for each PIXLL Node. The User shall pay all
associated software license fees.
2.3. Maintenance and
Hosting Fees.
UPLEVLL does not maintain
or host any PIXLL Node, but may refer the User to one or more third-party
hosting companies that may or may not be affiliated with PIXLL. If the User
elects and is part of a separate hosting agreement, the User may be required to
pay certain data center operations, maintenance and power fees (“Maintenance
Fees”). These Maintenance Fees may be deducted from the User’s digital rewards
or PXL Reward with the consent of PIXLL, at PIXLL’s discretion. Users are
responsible for any reversals, chargebacks, claims, fees, fines, penalties and
other liability incurred by User resulting or arising out of the User’s
election to use a third-party hosting company.
2.4. Blockchain Transaction
Fees.
The delivery and receipt of
any of the User’s digital rewards through the BUMP Wallet may be subject to
network or transaction fees charged by the blockchain associated with the
User-selected algorithm (“Blockchain Transaction Fees”), which are
non-refundable. Blockchain Transaction Fees are paid to emit, record, verify,
and process a transaction on the blockchain. Any withdrawal or transfer of the
User’s digital rewards may be subject to Blockchain Transaction Fees.
2.5. Other Third-Party
Fees.
Certain digital apps, app
addresses, tools, and third-party software and devices (“Third-Party Fees”)
used by the User may also charge the User a fee, including a per transaction or
transfer fee, which are non-refundable. The User is responsible for satisfying
any such fee(s). The User should note that any such fees may significantly
reduce the User’s rewards and therefore the User is responsible for managing
the selection, use, rate and frequency of their receipt of rewards to any such
Third-Party Fees.
2.6. Taxes.
The User is responsible for
any taxes, and the User will pay for UPLEVLL Services without any reduction for
taxes. If the User is required by law to withhold any taxes from its payments
to PIXLL, the User must provide UPLEVLL with an official tax receipt or other
qualified documentation to support such withholding, including value added tax
(“VAT”), if applicable. The User will be liable to pay (or reimburse UPLEVLL)
for any taxes, interest, penalties or fines which may arise from any
mis-declaration made by the User. The User shall pay UPLEVLL for all taxes and
governmental fees UPLEVLL is required to collect or pay upon sale or delivery
of UPLEVLL Services.
POTENTIAL USERS OF NFTS,
DIGITAL REWARDS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BITCOIN, ARE FOREWARNED OF
POSSIBLE FINANCIAL LOSS AT THE TIME SUCH REWARDS ARE EXCHANGED FOR FIAT
CURRENCY DUE TO AN UNFAVORABLE EXCHANGE RATE. MOREOVER, A FAVORABLE EXCHANGE
RATE AT THE TIME OF EXCHANGE MAY RESULT IN A TAX LIABILITY. USERS SHOULD
CONSULT A TAX ADVISOR REGARDING ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES ASSOCIATED WITH THE
PURCHASE, SALE, TRADE, OR OTHER USE OF DIGITAL REWARDS. USER IS SOLELY
RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PAYMENT OF ANY APPLICABLE TAXES ASSOCIATED WITH THE
PURCHASE, SALE, TRADE, OR OTHER USE OF NFTS, DIGITAL REWARDS, OR VIRTUAL
CURRENCIES.

obscuring your IP address or submitting any inaccurate information regarding
your location.
3.2 Software and Equipment
Allocation.
The User is responsible for
the allocation of the User’s software and equipment and selected optimization
strategies and decisions. The User acknowledges that UPLEVLL is not responsible
for the selection or timing of blockchain protocols, nor is UPLEVLL responsible
for the protocols selected for use in connection with UPLEVLL Services. The
User is solely responsible for these decisions. The User acknowledges that the
node transactions on any blockchain may vary and will not be uniform across
each PIXLL Node. The User acknowledges that the difficulty of mining may vary
and will likely increase over time.
3.3. Log-in Credentials.
The User represents and
warrants that the User is responsible for the preservation of confidentiality
of the User’s login credentials on the BUMP Wallet and any other login for the UPLEVLL
Services. Login credentials generated for the User by UPLEVLL are for the
User’s internal use only and the User is strictly prohibited from selling,
transferring, or sub-licensing them to any other entity or person.
3.4. Blockchain Network
Risk.
The User represents and
warrants that the User accepts the risks of blockchain protocol and network,
including instability, congestion, high transaction costs, network latency,
information security, regulatory risk, and technological and operational error.
The User understands these risks may result in delay or failure to process
transactions, failure to generate hash rate, and potentially high Blockchain
Transaction Fees or Third Party Fees. The User represents and agrees that UPLEVLL
is not responsible for any diminished UPLEVLL Services, related features, or
capabilities resulting from blockchain network risk. In the event of a material
increase or decrease to Blockchain Transaction Fees, Third Party Fees, or
operational degradation, congestion, failure or other disruption of the
blockchain network used by the User, UPLEVLL may, at its sole discretion and
upon notice to the User, make any adjustments to the UPLEVLL Services.
3.5. Blockchain
Modification Risk.
The User represents and
warrants that the User is familiar with and accepts the risks associated with
blockchain development and code changes. Blockchain technologies are still
under development and may undergo significant changes over time. Blockchain
contributors may make changes to features and specifications of the algorithm
selected by the User, and may fork the PIXLL Blockchain protocol. Such changes
may include or result in the elimination or support for specific algorithms and
applications.
3.6 Proof-Of-Work
Replacement Risk
In addition to blockchain
modification risk, blockchain contributors may also modify the cryptographic
verification process such that the blockchains can no longer be verified
through Proof-of-Work and instead adopt Proof-of-Stake methodologies. The User
accepts and acknowledges such risk and shall allocate the User’s hash rate to
other available blockchains and mining processes that use Proof-of-Work
methodologies. The User further acknowledges that certain blockchain algorithms
have no alternative blockchain applications that support Proof-of-Work mining
and any such switch from Proof-of-Work to Proof-of-Stake would result in no
applicable use of the User’s hash rate.
3.7. Trade Compliance.
User shall comply with all
applicable import, re-import, sanctions, anti-boycott, export, and re-export
control laws and regulations, including all such laws and regulations that
apply to European Union and U.S. companies, such as the Export Administration
Regulations, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, and economic sanctions
programs implemented by the Office of Foreign Assets Control and the European
Union’s Common Foreign and Security Policy (collectively, “Trade Sanctions
Laws”). The User represents and warrants that the User and the User’s financial
institutions, or any party that owns or controls the User or the User’s
financial institutions, are not subject to sanctions or otherwise designated on
any list of prohibited or restricted parties, including but not limited to the
lists maintained by the United Nations Security Council, the U.S. Government
(e.g., the Specially Designated Nationals List and Foreign as Evaders List of
the U.S. Department of Treasury, and the Entity List of the U.S. Department of
Commerce), the European Union or its Member States, or other applicable
government authority. Further, User represents and warrants that it
is currently in compliance with and shall at all times during the term of this
agreement remain in compliance with the regulations of the United States Office
of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), including those named on OFAC’s Specially
Designated and Blocked Persons List, and any statute, executive order
(including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and
Prohibiting Transactions with Persons who Commit, Threaten to Commit or Support
Terrorism), or other governmental action relating thereto. Specifically, User
shall not engage in business, sell to, or form a business relationship on
behalf of others or for itself with any individual or country in contravention
or violation of the aforementioned rules, laws, and regulations. The User
warrants that it is not named on any OFAC Blocked Persons List or resides in
any country or territory sanctioned by OFAC. The User shall indemnify and hold
harmless UPLEVLL against and from any claim, loss, damage or expense (including
attorneys’ fees and costs for the underlying investigation) arising from any
breach or misrepresentation of this section. If you do not reside in a
jurisdiction located in the European Union or the United States, you hereby
agree that any dispute or claim arising from this section of the Agreement
shall be governed by the applicable law set forth in this section, without
regard to any conflict of law provisions, and hereby irrevocably submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in section entitled “Governing
Law” of this Agreement.
3.8 Anti-Bribery
User acknowledges that its
activities under this Agreement may be subject to United States and other
anti-bribery and corruption legislation around the world (including without
limitations, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the UK Bribery Act).
User warrants that it has not and undertakes and agrees that it shall not, in
connection with this Agreement, make or promise to make any payment or transfer
of anything of value, directly, or indirectly, to:
1. any governmental official
or employee (including employees of government-owned or state-controlled
corporations and employees of public international organizations);
2. any political party, official
or candidate; any intermediary for payment to any of the foregoing; or
3. to any other person or
entity if such payment or transfer would violate the laws of the country in
which it is made or the laws of the United States of America.
4. User acknowledges and agrees that no payments or transfers of value shall be made that have the purpose or effect of public or commercial bribery, acceptance of or acquiescence in extortion, kickbacks or other unlawful or improper means of obtaining business or any improper advantage. The User shall indemnify and hold harmless UPLEVLL against and from any claim, loss, damage or expense (including attorneys’ fees and costs for the underlying investigation) arising from any breach or misrepresentation of this section.
Any User that suspects any
instance or allegation of violation of this section shall immediately report
such instance to UPLEVLL and to the proper authorities.
3.9 Intellectual Property
Restrictions.
User acknowledges and

3.11 Representations Made
By User.
User acknowledges and
agrees that the UPLEVLL Services, including but not limited to the PIXLL Node,
ARE NOT being sold as an investment by or of UPLEVLL. THE USER
UNDERSTANDS THAT ANY REPRESENTATIONS MADE BY THE USER AT ANY TIME THAT ANY OF
THE UPLEVLL SERVICES ARE AN INVESTMENT IN PIXLL (OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT
NOT LIMITED TO, IN GENERAL) TO OTHERS IN A DIRECT ATTEMPT TO MARKET UPLEVLL
SERVICES IN COORDINATION WITH SUPPLYING USER’S REFERRAL LINK IS A DIRECT BREACH
OF THE TERMS & CONDITIONS. A determination of same will be made at the sole
discretion of PIXLL.
User further acknowledges
that crypto assets are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(FDIC), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) or any other
public or private insurer, including against cyber theft or theft by other
means. User understands that cryptocurrency activity is not a regulated
activity in many states. User further acknowledges that the value of crypto
assets can be extremely volatile and unpredictable, and subject to large
fluctuations, which can result in significant losses in a short time, including
possibly a loss of total value in the future.
3.12 PIXLL NODE
REPRESENTATIONS
UPLEVLL and the User
recognize that the SOLE AND ONLY purpose of the PIXLL Node
is to support the PIXLL Node Ecosystem. Nothing contained in this
Agreement, exhibit to this Agreement, or any representation made outside of
this Agreement, conveys on the User any ownership interests in UPLEVLL or
its subsidiaries, or interests otherwise in UPLEVLL (including, but not limited
to voting rights in the PIXLL Blockchain), nor any expectation of profits
from the efforts of UPLEVLL or its principals or subsidiaries. The User
understands that while it may from time to time receive rewards in line with
the distribution schedule of the PIXLL Node Ecosystem
(“Distribution Rewards”) (subject to change), said reward is solely earned
because of and as a direct result of work accomplished and performed by the
User (e.g. work done by the PIXLL Node). The User recognizes
that should the User never actually run the PIXLL Node, it will
receive no rewards. UPLEVLL has no control of the method in which rewards
are distributed to the PIXLL Node. It is anticipated that
the PIXLL Node will be able to be sold or transferred in the future
as NFTs, however, UPLEVLL cannot and does not warrant or represent that
the resale value of the Nodes will be higher than the purchase price should
this event occur, nor that it will be legally possible to do so.
Further, UPLEVLL cannot and does not warrant or represent that there
will ever be a resale value or capability of the PIXLL Node.
4.
TERMINATION
4.1. General.
UPLEVLL may suspend or
terminate the User’s right to access or use UPLEVLL Services immediately and
without notice if: (i) UPLEVLL determines the User’s use of the UPLEVLL
Services poses a security risk to UPLEVLL Services or any third party, could
adversely impact Uplevll, UPLEVLL Services, PIXLL Blockchain or any other UPLEVLL
users, could subject PIXLL, its affiliates, or any third party to liability,
could be fraudulent or violates any law applicable to User or PIXLL; (ii) the
User is in breach of these Terms & Conditions; (iii) the User initiated a
chargeback or dispute with respect to any payment or purchase of the UPLEVLL
Services; or (iv) the User has ceased to operate in the ordinary course, made
an assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar disposition assets, or
become the subject of any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution
or similar proceeding.
4.2. Effect of Suspension.
If UPLEVLL suspends the
User’s right to access or use any portion or all of the UPLEVLL Services, the
User shall remain responsible for all fees and charges the User incurs during
the period of suspension, including any Maintenance Fees and Blockchain
Transaction Fees; and the User may be in violation of the User’s hosting
agreement or the blockchain protocols, which may prevent or limit the User’s
entitlement or access to any results or rewards that may have occurred during
the User’s suspension of the UPLEVLL Services. User agrees to pay any fee
charged by UPLEVLL to reconnect the UPLEVLL Services.
4.3. Effect of Termination.
If UPLEVLL terminates the
User’s right to access or use any portion or all of the UPLEVLL Services, then
all of the User’s rights under these Terms & Conditions immediately
terminate and the User shall remain responsible for all fees owed to UPLEVLL incurred
through the termination date.
DECENTRALIZED GOVERNANCE
5.1. Decentralized Advisory Board. The
PIXLL Blockchain may have a decentralized advisory board that governs
with decentralized voting such as on a blockchain.
5.2. Consensus Nodes. The PIXLL Blockchain has consensus Validator nodes, which are
the nodes that approve and validate transactions and contribute to
the security and stability of the network. Any User that owns a PIXLL Node
involved in the consensus protocol associated with
Validator nodes may be rewarded for work done to
support the operation of the PIXLL
Blockchain and be able to charge Blockchain Transaction Fees.
5.3. Community and Decentralized Innovation. The
PIXLL Blockchain invites any person or entity throughout the world to
contribute to the PIXLL Blockchain, including coders, application developers,
marketers, advertisers, and service and maintenance providers. Accepted
amendments, updates, and innovation from individuals or groups of the PIXLL
Blockchain community may be rewarded from the PIXLL Blockchain rewards.
5.4 Changes to PIXLL Node Network.
UPLEVLL and User recognize that from time to time amendments will
be made to the PIXLL Node Network distributed governance framework (DGF). UPLEVLL and
User both specifically agree that UPLEVLL may, in the future, present
the PIXLL Node Network with proposed amendments (the
“Proposed Amendments”) that the Node Network will then vote on whether to
implement or not (the “Governance Vote”). The User understands
that the Proposed Amendments will be made at the discretion of UPLEVLL,
and UPLEVLL owes the User no duty or obligation to make proposals in
the User’s best interests. The User specifically
understands that there may come a time when UPLEVLL or another User proposes an amendment that is (i)
not in or (ii) in direct opposition to the User’s best interests, financial or
otherwise (including, but not limited to a change in the distribution protocol ), and the User
has no legal recourse against UPLEVLL or the other User should any Proposed Amendment be approved and implemented
through the Governance Vote. The User’s only recourse is to vote against
said Proposed Amendment. UPLEVLL and the User both agree that one
such Proposed Amendment may be to change the specifications, including, but not
limited to the internet connection, Random Access Memory,
Central Processing Unit requirements, extra space, and any other
requirements needed to run the PIXLL Nodes (the “Specifications”). UPLEVLL and User
further agree that while the Specifications may be minimal on the effective
date of this Agreement, this is subject to change through the Proposed
Amendment and the Governance Vote. UPLEVLL does not and cannot
represent or covenant that any rewards earned (financial or otherwise) for
running a PIXLL Node are not subject to change.
6.
PUBLICITY
The User is permitted to
state publicly that it is a customer or user of UPLEVLL, consistent with any
Trademark Guidelines which may be adopted by UPLEVLL from time to time. The
User agrees to abide by the Privacy Policy.
7. REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES
Each User represents and
warrants that: (i) it has full power and authority to enter into these Terms
& Conditions; and (ii) it will comply with all laws and regulations
applicable to its provision or use of UPLEVLL Services.
8.
DISCLOSURES & RISKS
8.1 Notification. UPLEVLL notifies each
User of certain disclosures and risks associated with blockchain NFT and
digital rewards and their associated technology and protocols. UPLEVLL Services
are not an investment product, and no action, notice, communication by any
means, or omission by UPLEVLL shall be understood or interpreted as such. UPLEVLL
has no influence whatsoever on the PIXLL Blockchain, the transactions and
consensus protocols, or the NFTs or digital rewards, including the PXL Reward.
Ownership of a BUMP Wallet or Node or the use of UPLEVLL Services does not
represent or constitute any ownership right or stake, share or security, debt
or equivalent right, or any right to receive any future revenue or form of
participation in or relating to any blockchain or digital reward, including the
PIXLL Blockchain or PXL Reward.
8.2 Digital Rewards. Digital rewards are
not considered legal tender, are not issued or backed by any government, and
have fewer regulatory protections than traditional currency. Moreover, digital
rewards are not insured against theft or loss by any insurance corporation or any
investor protection, including the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the
Securities Investor Protection Corporation.
8.3. Regulatory Risk. Legislative and
regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may
adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of virtual NFTs,
digital rewards, and blockchain rewards. The regulatory status of digital
assets and blockchain technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions.
It is difficult to predict how or whether governmental authorities will
regulate such technologies. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether
any governmental authority may make changes to existing laws, regulations
and/or rules that will affect digital assets, blockchain technology and its
applications. Such changes could negatively impact the UPLEVLL
Services in various ways, including, for example, through a
determination that any of the above are regulated financial
instruments that require registration. UPLEVLL may cease any distribution
of any of the above, the development of the BUMP Wallet, Node, or other UPLEVLL
platform or cease operations in a jurisdiction in the event that governmental
actions make it unlawful or commercially undesirable to continue to do so.
The industry in which UPLEVLL operates is new, and may be
subject to heightened oversight and scrutiny, including investigations or
enforcement actions. There can be no assurance that governmental,
quasi-governmental, regulatory or other similar types of (including banking)
authorities will not examine the operations of UPLEVLL and/or pursue
enforcement actions against UPLEVLL. Such governmental activities may or
may not be the result of targeting UPLEVLL in particular. All of this
may subject UPLEVLL to judgments, settlements, fines or penalties, or
cause UPLEVLL to restructure its operations and activities or to
cease offering certain products or services, all of which could harm UPLEVLL’s
reputation or lead to higher operational costs, which may in turn have a
material adverse effect on the UPLEVLL Services.
8.4 Technology Risk. Virtual NFT and
digital reward transactions may be irreversible and losses due to fraudulent or
accidental transactions may not be recoverable. Some virtual transactions are
deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which may not necessarily
be the date or time the user initiated the transaction. The nature of such
virtual transactions may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyber-attacks.

11.
INDEMNIFICATION
The User agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless UPLEVLL, including its affiliates, and UPLEVLL
Services from and against any loss, cost, or expense incurred as a consequence
of any breach of warranty or representation hereunder by the User. Additionally,
the User will defend, hold harmless, and indemnify UPLEVLL and its affiliates
against any settlement amounts approved by the User and damages and costs
finally awarded against UPLEVLL and its affiliates by a court of competent
jurisdiction in any formal legal proceeding filed by an unaffiliated third
party before a court or government tribunal (including any appellate
proceeding) to the extent arising from the User’s use of UPLEVLL’s Services.
12.
CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
The User may be exposed to UPLEVLL’s
(and other affiliated or third party blockchain protocols’) Confidential
Information. “Confidential Information” means any information, in
any form or medium, whether marked confidential or not, disclosed to
the User under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, proprietary
information, products, protocols, standards, manuals, services, business plans,
customer lists, know-how, trade secrets, intellectual property rights,
technical specifications, source code, object code, screen displays, designs,
flowcharts, drawings, processes, algorithms, software programs, databases,
marketing plans, articles, strategic direction, price lists, financial
information or projections, notes, memoranda, extracts, summaries, reports,
and/or analysis, including any and all derivative works of the aforementioned. “Confidential
Information” shall not include information that is: (a) in the public domain,
or subsequently becomes in the public domain, other than by breach of this or
another agreement; (b) lawfully disclosed by a third party on a
non-confidential basis to User, provided that the third party did not directly
or indirectly receive the item from UPLEVLL; or (c) independently developed by
the User without access to UPLEVLL’s Confidential Information and all such development
efforts can be clearly documented by User.
User acknowledges that all
Confidential Information is and shall continue to be the exclusive property of UPLEVLL. User
agrees to hold all Confidential Information received from UPLEVLL in trust and
confidence and agrees that such information shall be used only for the purposes
of this Agreement. User shall not disclose, directly or
indirectly, the Confidential Information to any third parties, or otherwise use
the Confidential Information in a manner detrimental to UPLEVLL. User
shall not make copies of any documents containing Confidential Information or
disassemble, decompile, publicly display, distribute, create derivatives, or
reverse engineer any materials, items, or products provided by the UPLEVLL.
User understands that all Confidential Information is important, unique, and
materially affects UPLEVLL’s goodwill and success in conducting its business
activities, and hereby agrees to indemnify and save harmless UPLEVLL for
damages that may arise from the unauthorized disclosure of Confidential
Information by the User. This Agreement extends to Confidential Information
that may have been previously disclosed to User prior to the execution of this
Agreement.
The User may be exposed to
other third parties’ confidential or proprietary information. The User
will safeguard and keep confidential the confidential or proprietary
information of customers, vendors, contractors, and other parties with which UPLEVLL
does business to the same extent as if it were UPLEVLLs Confidential
Information and the prohibitions and restrictions herein apply equally to third
parties confidential and proprietary information received by User pursuant to
this Agreement as if it were UPLEVLLs Confidential Information.
User shall immediately
inform UPLEVLL, in writing, of any misappropriation, unauthorized use, or
disclosure of Confidential Information and will cooperate in every reasonable
way to prevent further disclosure and to obtain possession of the
misappropriated Confidential Information.
Upon written request from UPLEVLL,
user shall return to UPLEVLL (or destroy upon the request of the UPLEVLL) all
Confidential Information received by the User.
13.
MISCELLANEOUS.
13.1. Assignment.
The User will not assign or
otherwise transfer the User’s rights and obligations under these Terms &
Conditions, without the prior written consent of UPLEVLL, which may be
unreasonably withheld. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this section
will be void. At any time and without the need for User’s consent, UPLEVLL may
assign any obligation, right and these Terms & Conditions. Subject to the
foregoing, these Terms & Conditions will be binding upon, and inure to the
benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
The User may not merge these Terms & Conditions with any other agreements
with which UPLEVLL may be a party unless UPLEVLL provides its consent in
writing or incorporates by reference these Terms & Conditions.
13.2. Disputes.
Any dispute, controversy,
difference or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms & Conditions
or relating in any way to the User’s use of UPLEVLL Sites or UPLEVLL Services,
including the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or
termination thereof or any dispute regarding any contractual or non-contractual
obligations arising out of or relating to these Terms & Conditions shall be
commenced only in a court in the State of Wyoming (federal or state), and the
User and UPLEVLL each consent to the exclusive subject matter and personal
jurisdiction of such Courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing UPLEVLL
and the User agree that UPLEVLL may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement
or other misuse of UPLEVLL’s intellectual property rights. The prevailing party
in any court action shall be entitled to costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.
13.2.1 Arbitration
You and UPLEVLL agree that
any dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services, shall
be finally settled in binding arbitration, on an individual basis, in
accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of
consumer-related disputes (accessible at https://www.adr.org/rules). Subject to
applicable jurisdictional requirements, consumer claimants (individuals whose
transaction is intended for personal, family, or household use) may elect to
pursue their claims in their local small-claims court rather than through
arbitration so long as their matter remains in small claims court and proceeds
only on an individual (non-class or non-representative) basis.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: TO THE
EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN A PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL
CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS,
COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING (COLLECTIVELY “CLASS ACTION
WAIVER”). THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR
ENGAGE IN ANY CLASS ARBITRATION. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT, BY AGREEING TO
THESE TERMS, EACH PARTY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO
PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
The Federal Arbitration
Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, fully applies to arbitration. The arbitration will be
conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator and shall take place in the State of Wyoming,
or another mutually agreeable location, in the English language. The arbitrator
may award any relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award,
including attorneys’ fees when authorized by law, and the arbitral decision may
be entered as a judgment and enforced in any court of law. At your request,
hearings may be conducted in person or by telephone and the arbitrator may
provide for submitting and determining motions on briefs, without oral
hearings. The prevailing party in any action or proceeding to enforce this
Agreement shall be entitled to costs and attorneys’ fees.
If the arbitrator(s) or
arbitration administrator would impose filing fees or other administrative
costs on you, we will reimburse you, upon request, to the extent such fees or costs
would exceed those that you would otherwise have to pay if you were proceeding
instead in a court. We will also pay additional fees or costs if required to do
so by the arbitration administrator’s rules or applicable law. Apart from the
foregoing, each party will be responsible for any other fees or costs, such as
attorney fees that the party may incur.
If any part of this
Agreement is held by any arbitrator or court of the United States to be invalid
or unenforceable in whole or in part, the validity or enforceability of the
other sections of these terms and conditions shall not be affected. Any
headings contained in this Agreement are for informational purposes only and
are not enforceable provisions of this Agreement.
13.3. Entire Agreement.
These Terms &
Conditions and Privacy Policy sets out all the terms agreed between the parties
and supersedes all other agreements between the parties relating to its subject
matter. In entering into these Terms & Conditions, neither party has relied
on, and neither party will have any right or remedy based on, any statement,
representation or warranty (whether made negligently or innocently), except
those expressly set out in these Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy. The
terms may be updated on UPLEVLL sites.
13.4. Force Majeure.
UPLEVLL and its affiliates
will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance of any obligation
under these Terms & Conditions where the failures or delay results from any
cause beyond reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God,
labor disputes or other industrial disturbances, electrical or power outages,
utilities or other telecommunications failures, earthquake, storms or other forces
of nature, blockages, embargoes, riots, acts or orders of government, acts of
terrorism, or war. Force Majeure events include, but are not limited to,
upgrades to the validation rules of a given blockchain (e.g., a “hard fork” or
“soft fork”).
13.5. Governing Law.
Any claim or dispute
between the User and UPLEVLL arising out of or relating to the User’s use of UPLEVLL
sites, UPLEVLL Services, or these Terms & Conditions, in whole or in part,
shall be governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, USA without respect to
its conflict of laws provisions. The 1980 United Nations Conventions on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods do not govern these Terms &
Conditions.
13.6. Language.
All communications and
notices made or given pursuant to these Terms & Conditions must be in the
English language. If we provide a translation of the English language version
of these Terms & Conditions, the English language version will control if
there is any conflict.
13.7. Notices to the User
and UPLEVLL.
UPLEVLL may provide any
notice to the User under these Terms & Conditions by: (i) posting a notice
on UPLEVLL Site; or (ii) sending a message to the email address associated with
the User’s account. Notices provided on UPLEVLL Site will be effective upon
posting and notices provided by email will be effective when the email is sent.
It is the User’s responsibility to keep the User’s email address current. To
give UPLEVLL notice under these Terms & Conditions, the User must contact UPLEVLL. UPLEVLL
may update the address for notices by posting on the UPLEVLL Site.
13.8. Severability.
If any portion of these
Terms & Conditions is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining
portions will remain in full force and effect.
13.9 No Third-Party
Beneficiaries
This Agreement is for the
sole benefit of the parties hereto and nothing herein, express or implied, is
intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or
equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason
of this agreement.
13.10 Relationship
Nothing herein shall be
construed to create a joint venture or partnership between the parties hereto
or an employer/employee or agency relationship. Neither party hereto shall have
any express or implied right or authority to assume or create any obligations
on behalf of or in the name of the other party or to bind the other party to
any contract, agreement, or undertaking with any third party.
14. Return Policy
All sales are
final and no refunds will be issued.

Additional terms and conditions may apply to purchases of goods or services and to specific portions or features of the UPLEVLL Services, including contests, promotions or other similar features, all of which terms are made a part of this Agreement by this reference. You agree to abide by such other terms and conditions, including where applicable representing that you are of sufficient legal age to use or participate in such service or feature.
