You hereby acknowledge and agree that we do not execute the exchange of crypto assets, cryptocurrencies, and tokens. You do not interact with us when you perform swaps or interact with liquidity pools, rather you interact with a decentralized protocol that matches your swap request with pool's assets allocated for swaps transactions or, as for liquidity polls, add your funds to a corresponding liquidity pool that issues digital confirmation of your share in the pool. We do not own or control the underlying software which governs the operation of decentralized protocols, even technically supported by the Platform.

We make no representations or warranties of any kind regarding these third-party applications, including but not limited to representations and warranties of compliance, availability, or security. We make no representations or warranties that decentralized protocols are compliant with laws of any jurisdiction, and you are solely responsible for making any such determination concerning your interaction with such protocols.

You should verify all transfer information before submitting the request to us. We do not guarantee the identity of any user, receiver, requestee, or other third parties and we will have no liability or responsibility for ensuring that the information you provide is accurate and complete.
We may refuse to process or cancel any transfer request as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or any court or other authority to which we are subject in any jurisdiction, for instance, if there is suspicion of money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other financial crime.
b. Conversion Rules. The Platform may provide users with the functionality of conversion of crypto assets between users of the Platform by providing a forum where sellers and buyers may post advertisements for a direct conversion of crypto assets (like posting bids and offers). The conversion functionality includes automated mechanics of transferring crypto assets between users of the Platform without actually exchanging them by us. As soon as one user posted its advertisement for conversion according to the conversion rate specified by this first user at its sole discretion, the second user, who agrees with the terms of the advertisement, can proceed with the automated conversion according to such advertisement's terms. As soon as the second user agrees to conversion terms, the Platform will automatically credit CCTip Wallets of both users with the specified amounts of crypto assets and will automatically transfer these crypto-assets between participating CCTip Wallets.
c. No Control Over Price. We do not define, suggest and execute any control over the price of crypto assets. You agree that any dispute that may arise concerning any of your conversion transactions with the other user shall be resolved with such user, and without involving us.

The Bot Software converts the commands to the specific requests or instructions to the Platform.
c. Command-sensitive Performance. The Bot Software supports various commands, a list of which is available on the Platform. By using such commands you instruct the Platform to perform specific actions, for example, to transfer crypto-assets to other users of the Platform conditioned to any specific criteria.

d. Binding Arbitration
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO SUBMIT THEIR DISPUTES TO BINDING ARBITRATION AND LIMITS HOW YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
Any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and us arising in connection with or relating in any way to these Terms or to your relationship with us as a user of the Software and/or our services (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of these Terms) will be determined by mandatory final and binding individual (not class) arbitration. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her jurisdiction, including without limitation any objections for the existence, scope, or validity of the agreement to arbitrate, or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this arbitration agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including, if applicable, attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award declaratory or injunctive relief in favor of anyone but the parties to the arbitration.
The arbitration shall be subject to the HKIAC Administered Arbitration Rules (HKIAC Rules) in force when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted. The arbitration will be administered by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC). There shall be one arbitrator appointed under the HKIAC Rules. Any arbitration will be conducted in the English language. Regardless of how the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. JUDGMENT ON ANY ARBITRAL AWARD MAY BE GIVEN IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE PARTY (OR OVER THE ASSETS OF THE PARTY) AGAINST WHOM SUCH AN AWARD IS RENDERED.
ANY ARBITRATION AGAINST US MUST BE COMMENCED BY FILING A REQUEST FOR ARBITRATION WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR, AFTER THE DATE YOU FIRST KNOW OR REASONABLY SHOULD KNOW OF THE ACT, OMISSION, OR DEFAULT GIVING RISE TO YOUR CLAIM; AND THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO ANY REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM NOT ASSERTED WITHIN THAT PERIOD. THIS ONE-YEAR LIMITATION PERIOD IS INCLUSIVE OF THE COMPLAINT PROCESS SET IN THIS SECTION, ABOVE. THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO ANY REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM NOT ASSERTED WITHIN THAT PERIOD. If applicable law prohibits a one-year limitation period for asserting claims, any claim must be asserted within the shortest period permitted by applicable law.
The party who intends to seek arbitration after the completion of the Complaint Process, set above, must submit a request to the HKIAC by the HKIAC Rules. If we request arbitration against you, we will give you notice at the email address or mailing address you have provided. You agree that any notice sent to this email or mailing address shall be deemed effective for all purposes, including without limitation to determinations of the adequacy of service. You should ensure that the email address and/or mailing address on file with us is up-to-date and accurate.
The seat of the arbitration shall be Hong Kong. The location of any in-person arbitration hearing shall be Hong Kong unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties.
