YOU ASSUME ALL SUCH RISK. YOU ALSO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE COMPANY DOES NOT PROVIDE OR ENDORSE ANY VIRTUAL CURRENCY SUPPLYING PROTOCOL, LIQUIDITY POOLS OR ANY OTHER PROTOCOL ON THE ETHEREUM BLOCKCHAIN.

Virtual Currency. Virtual currency means a cryptocurrency, digital currency, digital asset, cryptoasset or other such similar term describing, for example, a stablecoin USDC or Bitcoin but does not include a derivative of a virtual currency or a security.
The Wallet. The Wallet is provided to you exclusively by the Company. At no point will the Company ever take custody or control over Virtual Currency stored in your Wallet. The Wallet is only capable of supporting certain Virtual Currencies on the Ethereum blockchain. Under no circumstances should you attempt to store Virtual Currencies in your Wallet that the Wallet does not support. When you create a Wallet, the Wallet software generates a cryptographic private and public key pair that you may use to send and receive any supported Virtual Currency via the Ethereum network. You are solely responsible for storing, outside of the Services, a backup of any Wallet, private key. By accepting this Terms of Use you acknowledge that you have enabled iCloud Keychain on your mobile device to backup your private keys and will keep iCloud Keychain enabled at all times while using the Application. If you do not maintain a backup of your Wallet private key data outside of the Application, including in the iCloud Keychain enabled on your mobile device, you may not be able to access Virtual Currency previously accessed using your Wallet in the event that we discontinue or no longer offer some or all of the features or service or may otherwise lose access to Virtual Currency. We are not responsible for maintaining this data on your behalf. It is your responsibility to safeguard your Apple ID password to have access to iCloud Keychain at all times and not to delete data related to the Application from iCloud Keychain on your mobile device. You acknowledge that besides iCloud Keychain you have a backup of your private keys related to the Service.
Wallet Protection. With respect to the Wallet, the Company does not receive or store your Wallet password nor any keys. We cannot assist you with Wallet password retrieval.

Any Virtual Currency you have associated with such Wallet may become inaccessible if you do not keep secret your Apple ID password. Any third party with knowledge of one or more of your credentials (including, without limitation, a mobile device passcode, Apple ID password can dispose of virtual currency in your wallet.
Assumption of Risk. By accessing and using the Application and Snowball Money App Tools, you represent that you understand the inherent risks associated with using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems, and that you have a working knowledge of the usage and intricacies of virtual currency (digital assets) such as bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), and other digital assets such as those following the Ethereum Token Standard (ERC-20). You further understand that the markets for these digital assets are highly volatile due to factors including (but not limited to) adoption, speculation, technology, security, and regulation. You acknowledge that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems such as Ethereum are variable and may increase dramatically at any time. You further acknowledge the risk that your virtual currency (digital assets) may lose some or all of their value while they are supplied to blockchain-based liquidity pools (protocols), including the yEarn protocol. If you borrow virtual currency or digital assets from the Ethereum-based protocols, you will have to supply virtual currency (digital assets) of your own as collateral. If your collateral declines in value such that it is no longer sufficient to secure the amount that you borrowed, others may interact with the protocols to seize your collateral in a liquidation event. You further acknowledge that we are not responsible for any of these variables or risks, do not own or control blockchain-based liquidity pools and protocols, including the yEarn protocol, and cannot be held liable for any resulting losses that you experience while accessing or using the Application and Snowball Money App Tools. Accordingly, you understand and agree to assume full responsibility for all of the risks of accessing and using the Application and Snowball Money App Tools and interacting with blockchain-based liquidity pools and protocols, including the yEarn protocol.

When we carry out these inquiries, you acknowledge and agree that your personal information may be disclosed to anti-fraud services, federal agencies or similar service providers and related regulatory agencies, and that these third parties may respond to our inquiries in full. You will need to successfully complete our Know Your Customer (“KYC”) and Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) verification processes. We, our partners, and vendors reserve the right to modify our verification process, including our KYC and AML verification processes, from time to time. Our identity verification process should have no adverse effect on your credit rating. You will either be confirmed (“Confirmed”) or restricted (“Restricted”) from using the Services. You will not be able to make full use of the Snowball Money App Tools until the verification process is completed to our or our partners' satisfaction.

We are not responsible for your failure to adequately monitor your Transactions, which may result in your failure to make timely withdrawals and the loss of supplied virtual currency to the protocols or liquidity pools. We are also not responsible for any failures on the underlying protocols or the Ethereum blockchain, including, but not limited to, network failures, network forks, inaccurate price feeds, coding errors or hacking attempts, which may result in your losing any or all of the virtual currency (digital assets) that are part of the Transactions you entered through Snowball Money App Tools.
