2. Eligibility
The Platform is only intended for adults eighteen (18) years of age and older. You are not allowed to use the Platform or provide information on it if you are under eighteen (18) years of age. You are not allowed to use the Platform for any illegal activity, including, but not limited to, illegal gambling, money laundering, fraud, blackmail, extortion, ransoming data, terrorism financing, other violent or illegal activities, or any other activity listed in Section 13. The Platform is limited to users who meet the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing user due diligence requirements outlined below.

3. Changes to the Terms of Use and Platform
We reserve the right to update these Terms from time to time, and these changes are effective as soon as we post them on the Platform. If you continue to use the Platform following the posting of any revised Terms, you are accepting and agreeing to the changes.
We may also update the content on the Platform as we see fit, but do not guarantee that any content is necessarily complete or up-to-date.
4. Archblock Stablecoin Services
The Platform is an online environment to mint “1CAD”, “1HKD”, “1AUD” and other stable cryptocurrency tokens (each an “Archblock Stablecoin” and collectively “Archblock Stablecoins”) for Canadian Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars, Australian Dollars, and other fiat currencies, respectively. You may also redeem Archblock Stablecoin tokens for the respective fiat currency on the Platform. Archblock Stablecoins are not money, legal tender, and are not monetary instruments. They are also not stored value or currency. Once you have Archblock Stablecoin tokens, you can trade them, keep them, or use them to pay persons that will accept your Archblock Stablecoin tokens, or redeem them for the respective fiat currency backing the tokens on the Platform.
Archblock Stablecoin tokens are fully backed by the currency used to mint them at issuance, cash equivalents, short-term government securities, or liquid investments denominated in the same underlying currency. Archblock Stablecoin holders can mint or redeem tokens for their respective fiat currencies held in escrow accounts managed by our independent fiduciary network through the Platform. The Platform is only intended to facilitate such mints and redemptions. The Company utilizes Archblock’s asset tokenization smart contracts and escrow accounts managed by banks, depository institutions, or trust companies (each a “Banking Partner” and together our “Banking Partners”) in order to maintain 1-to-1 parity between Archblock Stablecoin tokens and the fiat currencies, cash equivalents, short-term government securities, or liquid investments held in escrow accounts for the benefit of our users. THE COMPANY ITSELF DOES NOT GUARANTEE ANY RIGHT OF REDEMPTION OR EXCHANGE OF ARCHBLOCK STABLECOIN TOKENS FOR FIAT CURRENCY.
The Company reserves the right to refuse to issue or redeem Archblock Stablecoin tokens, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if any act, conduct, transaction, omission, or misrepresentation, or the party requesting the issuance or redemption, violates, attempts to violate, causes, aids, or abets the violation of any applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, or regulations; is suspected or believed to be blocked property, frozen assets, or economic resources, or the proceeds of any crime, terrorist financing, or corruption related to any person or government official under any applicable laws; or exposes the Company to sanctions, restrictions, or penalties.
5. No Class Proceedings
Both you and the Company agree that any party hereto may bring claims against the other on an individual basis only and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. Unless the parties agree otherwise, any adjudicator of any claim—whether judicial or otherwise—may not consolidate or join more than one party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative, or class proceeding. Any adjudicator of any claim may award relief, including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief, only in favor of the party seeking relief, and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other users of the Platform.
6. Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorist Financing
We are committed to providing you with safe, compliant, and reputable services through the Platform. Accordingly, we insist on a comprehensive and thorough user due diligence process, implementation, ongoing analysis, and reporting. This includes monitoring of and for suspicious transactions or activity, and mandatory reporting to international regulators.
We reserve the right to refuse registration to, or to bar transactions from or to, anyone from or in jurisdictions that do not meet international AML–CTF standards as set out by the FATF; to anyone that is a Politically Exposed Person within the meaning of the FATF’s 40 Recommendations; or, that fails to meet any of our user due diligence standards, requests, or requirements.
In lieu of refusing registration, we may perform enhanced user due diligence procedures. At all times, you may be subject to enhanced user due diligence procedures in your use of the Platform and any related service. The Company will validate and verify your identity based on the information provided. As part of our Know Your Customer (KYC) policy and ongoing monitoring of account activity, we reserve the right to request additional information and documentation from you in the future. If we are unable to contact you and verify your identity in the future, we reserve the right to permanently close your account.
The Company will cooperate with applicable law enforcement and regulatory authorities where it is required to do so and will share information if there are reasonable grounds to believe that a Archblock Stablecoin is being used for illegal or prohibited purposes.
We reserve the right to prohibit specific cryptocurrency exchanges from accessing the Platform, receiving Archblock Stablecoin tokens, or transferring Archblock Stablecoin tokens if the exchange has not been pre-approved by the Company or the Company is properly directed to do so by law enforcement or a court of competent jurisdiction. We reserve the right to restrict or prohibit the listing or trading of a Archblock Stablecoin on any exchange in our sole and absolute discretion. Any exchange that lists a Archblock Stablecoin token represents and warrants to the Company that by doing so it is duly organized, registered, licensed, and shall comply with all applicable laws and rules in every jurisdiction in which it operates. Furthermore, any exchange listing an Archblock Stablecoin token represents and warrants to the Company that by doing so it has Anti-Money Laundering (“AML“) and Counter Terrorist Financing controls meeting the requirements in every jurisdiction in which it operates. The Company will make reasonable efforts to notify and inform exchanges in advance of any such restriction or prohibition, unless the Company is prohibited from doing so by law enforcement or under an order from a court of competent jurisdiction.
7. Accessing the Platform
We reserve the right to amend the Platform, and any service or material we provide on the Platform, in our sole discretion without notice. This includes, but is not limited to, replacing the existing Archblock Stablecoin smart contracts with new smart contracts or moving any Archblock Stablecoin token to a new blockchain. In the event that a Archblock Stablecoin smart contract is replaced or moved to a new blockchain, balances will be transferred and the old Archblock Stablecoin tokens will not be valid for any purpose and shall be frozen.
Should a blockchain on which a Archblock Stablecoin token is on forks, we reserve the right to select the new fork based on factors that include, but are not limited to, community adoption and long term viability. In the event of a fork, all Archblock Stablecoin tokens on the non-chosen fork will not be valid for any purpose and shall be frozen. The Company defines a blockchain fork as a protocol upgrade that breaks backward compatibility. The Company shall have sole and absolute discretion in defining a blockchain fork.
In order to cause Archblock Stablecoin tokens to be issued or redeemed, you must be a verified user of the Company. You must create an account on the Platform and pass any bank verifications and KYC/AML validation requirements that we or our Banking Partners require. It is a condition of your use of the Platform that information you enter into the Platform your account is correct, current, and complete. All information you enter into the Platform is governed by our Privacy Policy.
We reserve the right to deny access to the Platform to anyone or cancel an account for any or no reason, including but not limited to violations of these Terms, applicable laws and regulations, or engaging in any Prohibited Uses, as defined below, and at any time, at our sole discretion. If we terminate your account for any reason, we’ll provide you with notice of our actions and make any unrestricted Archblock Stablecoin tokens available for redemption.
We reserve the right to prohibit wire submissions of fiat currency or redemption requests of Archblock Stablecoins if the total amount submitted or requested is less than $1,000 CAD, £1,000 HKD, $1,000 AUD, or the equivalent amount of the applicable fiat currency used to mint an Archblock Stablecoin.
8. Links from the Platform
Links to any third-party websites on the Platform are provided for your convenience only. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources. If you decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to the Platform, you do so entirely at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites.
9. Account Security
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account information, as well as any and all activities that occur under your account. You must immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account and any other such security breach. We will not be liable for any loss that may occur as a result of someone else using your account or password, with or without your knowledge. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information.
10. Fees
The Company does not take any responsibility for any bank transfer, wire, or any other fees or costs (“Fees”) associated with the minting or redemption of any Archblock Stablecoin product. Any Fees incurred by you during the mint or redemption of a Archblock Stablecoin product shall be deducted from the amount being minted or redeemed before the balance is transferred to you. For example, if you wire $10,000 CAD to mint and there is a wire fee of $25.00 CAD, you will then receive $9,975.00 CAD in your blockchain wallet.
You are responsible for all on-chain transaction costs associated with on-chain transfers of any Archblock Stablecoin product. The Company does not charge any Fees for minting or redeeming any Archblock Stablecoin and does not charge any on-chain transaction fees in addition to the blockchain specific transaction fees associated with such transfers.
11. Taxes
You are solely liable for all the taxes, fees, and commissions resulting from your use of the Platform. These Terms alone do not create a joint venture, partnership, or principal-agent relationship between you and the Company, or any other users, and nothing in these Terms may be used to imply such a relationship. You agree to indemnify the Company from any liability for, or assessment of, any claims or penalties with respect to such taxes, labor, or employment requirements, including any liability for, or assessment of taxes imposed on the Company by the relevant taxing authorities with respect to any fees paid to you as the result of using the Platform.
12. Assumption of Risk; No Advice
Cryptocurrency markets are volatile and shift quickly in terms of liquidity, market depth, and trading dynamics. You are solely responsible and liable for your account on the Platform and knowing the true status of your Archblock Stablecoin tokens even if the information on the Platform is displayed incorrectly.
The Company does not provide investment advice. The information contained within the Platform is for informational purposes only, and the Company is not soliciting any action based upon such materials. The material is not to be construed as investment advice. We do not provide any consultation on the advisability of minting or redeeming any Archblock Stablecoin, the timing of a mint or redemption, or any other matters regarding the minting or redemption of any Archblock Stablecoin, such as trading techniques, models, algorithms, or any other schemes. Additionally, the material accessible through the Platform does not constitute a representation that the minting of any Archblock Stablecoin tokens are suitable or appropriate for you.
13. Risks
Please note the following risks in minting, redeeming, and using the Platform:
Not a Bank Account
Your account with us (and any available assets held in such account) is not a bank account or a deposit account. Archblock Stablecoin tokens are not financial instruments and the Company may not be regulated as a financial institution in your jurisdiction. No interest will be paid on any funds or other assets held in your account and all assets directly held by the Company are not insured by the Company or, except as set forth below, any third party or any government agency. The Company may collect interest on the fiat deposits held in the Archblock Stablecoin escrow accounts.
FDIC Coverage Not Guaranteed; Risk of Loss
The Company works with independent Banking Partners to provide cash management for the fiat deposits backing Archblock Stablecoin tokens so that each Archblock Stablecoin token is backed by an equivalent amount of cash and cash equivalents that include short-term, highly liquid investments of sufficient credit quality that are readily convertible into cash, and other instruments to generate yield to answer administrative and related costs, fees, and charges. To achieve this, a portion of the fiat deposits backing Archblock Stablecoins are held in one or more depository accounts at our Banking Partners. FDIC coverage for any USD-backed Archblock Stablecoin is not guaranteed.
In all cases, cash equivalents and other instruments are recorded at cost, which approximates the fair value, or cash value. Therefore, in addition to the risks noted above, there may be a risk of loss to these funds associated with the solvency of non-US banks holding such funds, the solvency of the instruments being invested in, or other factors.
FDIC insurance is not applicable to the fiat deposits backing non-USD Archblock Stablecoins. Non-USD Archblock Stablecoins are held at one or more depository accounts at our Banking Partners. To provide protection, the Banking Partners may utilize sweep accounts that can protect the deposits through overnight investments in government backed securities. For example, Hong Kong Government Treasuries may be utilized for HKD deposits.
Theft and Loss
Any depository account maintained by a Banking Partner for the benefit of Archblock Stablecoin token holders may not be sufficient to cover all losses due to theft or fraud incurred by our Archblock Stablecoin holders. Transactions in Archblock Stablecoins may be irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable.
Market Value
The market value of Archblock Stablecoin tokens may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currency or digital assets for Archblock Stablecoin tokens, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of Archblock Stablecoins in the market.
Redemption of Archblock Stablecoins
All Archblock Stablecoin tokens will be rounded down to the nearest amount of the lowest circulating denomination of the underlying representative fiat currency (e.g., US cent) respectively, upon redemption.
14. Feedback
In the event that you provide us any ideas, thoughts, criticisms, suggested improvements, or other feedback related to Platform (collectively “Feedback”), you agree that we may use the Feedback in any way we deem appropriate to: (a) improve our Platform and (b) promote the Platform, and that you will not be due any compensation for your Feedback that is used in these ways.

You can terminate your acknowledgement of these Terms at any time by deactivating your account. In order to do so, contact our business support team who will assist you in closing your account. You may not deactivate your account if we believe, in our sole discretion, that such closure is being performed in an effort to evade a court order, or legal or regulatory investigation, or to avoid paying any amounts otherwise due to us.
We reserve the right to restrict, or refuse to permit, redemptions or transactions from your account if (1) your account has otherwise been suspended or deactivated in accordance with these Terms or (2) to do so would be prohibited by law, or a court order, or we have determined that any of the related Archblock Stablecoins were obtained fraudulently.
