Terms Of Service

Welcome to ABE!

ABE is owned and operated by SR MANAGEMENT PTE.LTD., doing business as ABE ("ABE," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our technology and services, which include the ABE website(s), APIs, mobile applications, and all related tools, features, and functionalities (collectively, the "Platform").

For purposes of these Terms:

"NFT" refers to a non-fungible token or similar digital item that is secured and authenticated on a public blockchain. NFTs are generally governed by smart contracts that define ownership and transferability.
"Use" includes accessing, viewing, interacting with, or otherwise engaging with the Platform, whether passively or actively. This encompasses actions such as visiting the Platform, browsing content, creating an Account, or utilizing any services or features.
"You" refers to any user of the Platform. If you are using the Platform on behalf of an entity, "you" also includes the entity.

Important: Please Read Carefully

These Terms contain important information about your legal rights and obligations. Section 13 includes a mandatory arbitration agreement and a class action waiver, requiring most disputes to be resolved through individual arbitration rather than in court.

By clicking "Accept," signing up, or using the Platform, you confirm that you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not use the Platform.

1.What ABE Is (and Isn't)

ABE operates as a peer-to-peer web3 platform that helps users discover and directly interact with blockchain-based items, including NFTs and other tokens, as well as engage with other participants across public blockchains. ABE is not a wallet provider, exchange, broker, dealer, financial institution, payments processor, money services business, or creditor.

We do not have custody or control over the digital tokens, blockchains, or third parties you engage with, nor do we execute or facilitate purchases, transfers, or sales of NFTs or other tokens.

2.Updates to the Terms

ABE reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time, at our sole discretion. If material changes are made, we will provide reasonable notice, such as updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of these Terms or providing a notice through the Platform. By continuing to use the Platform after changes are made, you confirm your acceptance of the revised Terms.

It is your responsibility to periodically review the Terms to ensure you understand the latest terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Platform.

Smart contracts and other software code deployed by third parties.

ABE does not claim ownership over such third-party intellectual property and disclaims responsibility for their operation, functionality, or legality. Reference to third-party products, services, or content on the Platform does not imply endorsement, sponsorship, or recommendation by ABE.

5.Third-Party Content

Third-Party Content

The Platform may include links or access to third-party websites, applications, code, or other content ("Third-Party Content"). ABE uses the CoinGecko API, which is the property of Gecko Labs Pte. Ltd., to display its Third-Party-Content about fungible tokens on the Platform.

ABE does not control, endorse, or review Third-Party Content and is not responsible for it. You are cautioned that third-party applications may be decentralized or "open" in nature, where no recourse is available.

By using or relying on Third-Party Content, you do so entirely at your own risk. ABE provides access to Third-Party Content as a convenience and makes no warranties or representations regarding its functionality, availability, or reliability. You bear sole responsibility for verifying the legitimacy, authenticity, and legality of NFTs or other digital items you purchase.

Public Blockchains

As a peer-to-peer web3 service, ABE helps you explore NFTs and other digital items created by third parties and interact with public blockchains and blockchain applications, which are not owned by ABE. Public blockchains facilitate the creation, transfer, and ownership of NFTs and other digital items, but ABE does not control or guarantee the availability, functionality, or permanence of these networks or the NFTs or other digital items existing on them.

Users acknowledge and agree that ABE's actions to address disputes are based solely on our internal policies and are not determinations of ownership or legal rights.

ABE reserves the right to restrict or remove visibility of NFT collections, individual NFTs, related metadata, or other digital assets or related content at its discretion, including for legal compliance, policy enforcement, or other reasons.
