NFT License
Some Digital Assets sold on the Marketplace may include NFTs. When purchasing an NFT, you agree and understand what characteristics NFTs have and how the following terms apply to their sale. An NFT is a digital tool that can represent real-world objects such as photographs, videos, writings, or music. NFTs are usually built using similar technology to digital currencies. But while digital currencies are usually fungible, NFTs are not. Each NFT is coded into a blockchain, contains built-in authentication and proof of ownership and is one-of-a- kind. When you buy an NFT, the terms of your purchase, and the rights you actually purchase and own, may be limited by the terms or technology of the underlying NFT. It is up to you to confirm your understanding of what you are buying and the license you are receiving which is determined by the seller it its sole discretion. The license to any purchased NFT is a matter between the seller and buyer, and Company is not a party to the transaction. All licenses and all ownership interests in any Digital Asset, such as NFTs, shall pass directly from seller to buyer.
You further understand that blockchain transactions are not reversible. You understand that NFTs and other Digital Assets may only exist by virtue of the ownership record maintained on a blockchain, and further that smart contracts are conducted and occur on decentralized ledgers. Company has no control over and makes no guarantees or promises with respect to such smart contracts or the functioning of such blockchain. In cases where a transaction involving a Digital Asset is revealed to be fraudulent, or a buyer or seller acts fraudulently, then the defrauded buyer/seller shall have no recourse against Company, but solely against the respective seller/buyer.
Sellers of Digital Assets are responsible for providing all necessary information regarding such Digital Assets in applicable listings on the Marketplace.
