Terms of Service

EnDAO provides software that helps groups manage shared treasuries and collective decision-making. The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, error-free operation, or the suitability of the Service for any particular purpose.

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract under applicable law to use the Service. By using the Service you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements and that your use of the Service does not violate any law applicable to you.

Supervised use by minors. A parent or legal guardian, educator, school, mentor, sponsor, or other adult acting in a responsible capacity may serve as the account holder for a group that includes participants under 18 — for example, classroom and educational use, youth-run businesses or cooperatives, youth productions, scouting and similar programs, and community youth groups. In such arrangements, the adult account holder is solely responsible for obtaining any consents required by law (including COPPA, FERPA, and analogous laws), supervising the minor participants’ use of the Service, and the acts and omissions of those participants. EnDAO does not knowingly permit users under 18 to hold individual accounts or to initiate treasury transactions in their individual capacity.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us promptly of any unauthorized access. We are not liable for losses caused by your failure to safeguard your credentials. We may refuse, suspend, or terminate accounts at our discretion, including where required by applicable law or by our service providers.

EnDAO is a software platform. We are not a bank, money services business, broker-dealer, investment adviser, exchange, custodian, or registered transfer agent. We do not custody, control, or have access to your funds, the assets of any group treasury, or your private keys. All on-chain activity originates from accounts and smart contracts you control.

We do not act as your agent, fiduciary, or trustee. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we owe you no fiduciary or similar duties, and you waive any such duties to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Groups and entities created or operated using the Service are independent of EnDAO. We are not responsible for the actions, omissions, governance decisions, or liabilities of any group or its members.

The Service relies on third-party providers, including blockchain networks, identity and authentication providers, payment processors, and fiat-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat conversion providers. Those providers are independent of us and operate under their own terms of service and privacy policies. We are not responsible for their acts, omissions, fees, downtime, security practices, or any losses arising from your use of their services.

Conversion providers (such as Coinbase and MoonPay) perform their own identity verification, payment processing, and currency conversion. We do not receive or store identity documents, card numbers, or bank account details collected by those providers.

You acknowledge and accept the inherent risks of blockchain technology, including transaction delays or failures, smart contract vulnerabilities, network congestion, fee volatility, and chain reorganizations or forks. Transactions recorded on a public blockchain are generally final and irreversible, and we cannot reverse or recall them.

You are responsible for any network or transaction fees incurred through your activity, and for any tax obligations arising from your activity on or through the Service.

You agree not to use the Service to: (a) violate any applicable law or regulation; (b) infringe on the rights of others; (c) interfere with or disrupt the Service or its users; (d) attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the Service; (e) impersonate any person or entity; (f) submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information or proposals; (g) manipulate governance, voting, or membership mechanisms; or (h) use the Service in a manner that exposes us or our service providers to legal or reputational risk.

We may, at our sole discretion and without notice, restrict access to or remove content that we believe violates these Terms or applicable law.

When you create or operate a group on the Service:

• You are responsible for the accuracy of information you provide and for ensuring that the group’s purpose, governance, and activities comply with all applicable laws.
• Governance outcomes (such as proposal approval, voting tallies, and treasury actions) are determined by the rules and configurations chosen by the group, not by us.
• On-chain governance and treasury activity is final once executed and cannot be reversed by EnDAO.

All rights, title, and interest in the Service — including software, design, content, branding, and trademarks — are owned by us or our licensors. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose, subject to these Terms. You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, sell, or create derivative works of the Service.

You retain ownership of content you submit through the Service. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, modify, and display your content as necessary to operate, maintain, and improve the Service.

The Service does not provide legal, financial, tax, investment, or regulatory advice. Nothing on or through the Service should be construed as such advice. You are solely responsible for compliance with laws applicable to you, your group, and your activity, including securities, money transmission, sanctions, anti-money-laundering, and tax laws in your jurisdiction. You should consult qualified professionals before making decisions with legal or financial consequences.

We make no representation that the Service is appropriate or available for use in any particular jurisdiction. You access the Service at your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local law.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, EnDAO and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or funds, arising out of or relating to your use of the Service, regardless of the theory of liability and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

In no event will our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service exceed the greater of (a) the total amounts paid by you to us in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars (US$100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in such jurisdictions our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless EnDAO and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to: your use of the Service; your violation of these Terms; your violation of applicable law; your group’s operations or governance; or your infringement of any third-party right.

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends. On-chain records, including governance and treasury activity, persist independently of your account. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide reasonable notice (such as updating the Effective Date and posting the revised Terms on the Service). Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by final, binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. Arbitration will take place in Atlanta, Georgia, or another mutually agreed location, and the arbitrator’s award will be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You and EnDAO each waive any right to a jury trial and any right to participate in a class action, class arbitration, or other representative proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. The U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and EnDAO regarding the Service. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that provision. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign them without restriction.
