If you join our pool by creating a Chia/Chives smart contract for pooling ("PlotNFT") for Leaf Pool, view or use any other Leaf Pool services, it will be deemed that you have read and agreed to the Terms. If you do not accept the limitation of the Terms, please do not view or use the Services (associated to the Leaf Pool brand). You represent to us that you are lawfully able to enter into contracts (e.g., you are not a minor).

We reserve the right to add, change and remove functionalities at our leisure. These modifications will be informed via our website and Discord server.

2.2 Terms of Service

Changes to Terms and any linked documents may happen from time to time.

3 Payment Terms, Fees and Taxes

3.1 Pool Fees

You shall pay and owe the Company certain pool fees for use of the Services as described in these Terms (“Pool Fees”). The Company shall calculate and automatically deduct the Pool Fees from every blockchain reward you actively participated in by submitting at least one valid proof-of-space-and-time to the Service in the period between the preceding and current rewards. The current fee details, payout schedule, and schedule of fees can be found on the Pool website. Any changes to fee details, payout schedule, and/or schedule of fees will be notified to you in the manner as described under these terms.

3.2 Blockchain Transaction Fees

The delivery and receipt of any of your cryptocurrencies is subject to network or transaction fees charged by the blockchain associated with the Chia/Chives Blockchain (“Blockchain Transaction Fees”). Blockchain Transaction Fees are paid to emit, record, verify, and process a transaction on the blockchain and not retained by the Company. The Company does not have any influence on the Chia/Chives cryptocurrency blockchain and farming process at all. The Company only provides an interface to the Chia/Chives blockchain. Any questions about the Chia/Chives cryptocurrency must be directed to Chia/Chives Network (“The Chia/Chives Blockchain Maintainers”), instead.

3.3 Third-Party Fees

Certain digital wallets, wallet addresses, tools, and third-party software and devices (“Third-Party Wallets”) used by you may also charge User a fee, including a per transaction or transfer fee. User is responsible for being aware of and satisfying any such fee. You should note that any such fees may significantly reduce the User farming rewards and therefore User is responsible for managing the selection, use, and rate and frequency of their receipt of farming rewards to any such Third-Party Wallets.

3.4 Taxes

Each party will be responsible, as required under applicable law, for identifying and paying all taxes and other governmental fees and charges (and any penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) that are imposed on that party upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under these terms. All fees payable by you are exclusive of taxes, except where applicable law requires otherwise. We may charge and you will pay applicable taxes that we are legally obligated or authorized to collect from you. You will provide such information to us as reasonably required to determine whether we are obligated to collect taxes from you. We will not collect, and you will not pay, any tax for which you furnish us a properly completed exemption certificate or a direct payment permit certificate for which we may claim an available exemption from such tax. All payments made by you to us under these terms will be made free and clear of any deduction or withholding, as may be required by law. If any such deduction or withholding (including but not limited to cross-border withholding taxes) is required on any payment, you will pay such additional amounts as are necessary so that the net amount received by us is equal to the amount then due and payable under these Terms. We will provide you with such tax forms as are reasonably requested in order to reduce or eliminate the amount of any withholding or deduction for taxes in respect of payments made under these Terms. You will be responsible for your own tax reporting.

3.5 Unclaimed Block Earnings

In the event that a user (i) joins Leaf Pool with previously unclaimed block earnings or (ii) has farmed a block while actively assigned to Leaf Pool but has no PPLNS points during the time the block was found, the pool will hold block earnings in escrow until either (i) seven (7) days have passed resulting in forfeiture of the block earnings, or (ii) until the owner of the account contacts Leaf Pool support for verification of the block earnings. The account owner must verify with Leaf Pool support (i) active ownership of their account, (ii) validity of the payout address to send the block earnings, (iii) the block earnings are valid on the blockchain, and (iv) the block earnings have not already been distributed by the pool. Upon verification, the block earnings will be sent in entirety minus any required blockchain fees to the confirmed payout address owned by the account holder. Leaf Pool support can be reached on its official Discord server.

4 User Obligations

4.1 Digital Wallet and Private Keys

You represent and warrant that you are familiar with and accept the risks associated with digital wallets and private keys, including the risks described in this Section 4.1 or Section 5. Your digital wallet or vault may require a private key, mnemonic, or a combination of private keys and mnemonics (collectively, “Keys”) for access. Accordingly, loss of requisite Keysassociated with your digital wallet or vault storing cryptocurrencies will result in loss of such cryptocurrencies, access to your cryptocurrencies balance and/or any initial balances in blockchains. Moreover, any third-party that gains access to such private key(s), including by gaining access to login credentials of a hosted wallet or vault service you use, may be able to misappropriate your cryptocurrencies. The Company is not responsible for any such losses.

4.2 Log-In Credentials

You represent and warrant that you are responsible for the preservation of confidentiality of your Login Token and PlotNFT.

5 Risks

5.1 Blockchain Network Risk

You represent and warrant that you accept the risks of the Chia/Chives blockchain protocol and network, including instability, congestion, high transaction costs, network latency, information security, regulatory risk, and technological and operational error. You understand that these risks may result in delay or failure to process transactions, failure to deliver farming rewards, and high Blockchain Transaction Fees. You represent that you understand and agree that the Company is not responsible for any diminished Services, related features, or capabilities resulting from blockchain network risk. In the event of a material increase or decrease to Blockchain Transaction Fees or operational degradation, congestion, failure or disruption otherwise of the blockchain network used by you, the Company may, at its sole discretion and upon notice to you, increase or decrease the threshold to deliver your cryptocurrencies.

5.2 Blockchain Modification Risk

You represent and warrant that you are familiar with and accept the risks associated with blockchain development and code changes, including the risks described in this Section 5.2. Blockchain technologies are still under development and may undergo significant changes over time. Blockchain developers may make changes to features and specifications of the algorithm selected by you. Such changes may include or result in the elimination of support for and/or the efficient use of hardware used by you or the Company. In addition, blockchain developers may also determine to modify the cryptographic verification process such that the blockchains can no longer be verified through proof-of-space-and-time and instead adopt proof-of-stake or other methodologies.

5.3 Proof of Space and Time Replacement Risk

In addition to blockchain modification risk, blockchain developers may also determine to modify the cryptographic verification process such that the blockchains can no longer be verified through proof-of-space-and-time and instead adopt proof-of-stake or other methodologies. User accepts and acknowledges that in circumstances where the protocol of a given blockchain used by you have been modified to use other methodologies, you accepts such risk and shall allocate User's farm space to other available blockchains and farming processes that use proof-of-space methodologies using the given algorithm for this Agreement. Certain blockchain algorithms at this time have no alternative blockchain applications that support proof-of-space farming and any such switch from would result in no applicable use of your farm space should such a protocol switch occur.

5.4 Trade Compliance

In connection with this Agreement, you agree that you will comply with all applicable import, re-import, sanctions, anti-boycott, export, and re-export control laws and regulations, including all such laws and regulations that apply to European Union companies.

6 Temporary Suspension

14 General Provisions

14.1 Assignment

You will not assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement or any of your rights and obligations under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the Company, which may be unreasonably withheld. Any assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 14.1 will be void. In addition, you shall be the beneficial owner of any cryptocurrencies generated and/or received as a result of your use of the Services under this Agreement. The Company may assign this Agreement without your consent (i) in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or (ii) to any Affiliate or as part of a corporate reorganization; and effective upon such assignment, the assignee is deemed substituted for the Company as a party to this Agreement and the Company is fully released from all of its obligations and duties to perform under this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. You may not merge this Agreement with any other agreements with the Company it may be party to.

14.2 Change of Control

If you experiences a change of Control (for example, through a stock purchase or sale, merger, or other form of corporate transaction): (i) you will give written notice to the the Company within thirty days after the change of Control; and (ii) the Company may immediately terminate this Agreement any time between the change of Control and thirty days after it receives that written notice.

14.3 Disputes

Disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court. The Portuguese arbitration law applies to this Agreement, namely Lei 63/2011, de 14 de Dezembro and Decreto-Lei 425/86, de 27 de Dezembro. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a registered letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to R. S. Ciro 21, CV dta, 1200-830 Lisboa, Portugal. The arbitration will be conducted by the Centro de Arbitragem de Conflitos de Consumo de Lisboa (CACCL) under its rules, which are available at www.centroarbitragemlisboa.pt. Payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the CACCL rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $50 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. We and you agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we and you waive any right to a jury trial. Notwithstanding the foregoing we and you both agree that we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

14.4 Entire Agreement

This Agreement sets out all terms agreed between the parties and supersedes all other agreements between the parties relating to its subject matter. In entering into this Agreement, neither party has relied on, and neither party will have any right or remedy based on, any statement, representation or warranty (whether made negligently or innocently), except those expressly set out in this Agreement. The terms located at a URL referenced in this Agreement and the Documentation are incorporated by reference into the Agreement. After the Effective Date, the Company may provide an updated URL in place of any URL in this Agreement.

14.5 Force Majeure

The Company and its affiliates will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance of obligation under this Agreement where the failures or delay results from any cause beyond our reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, labor disputes or other industrial disturbances, electrical or power outages, utilities or other telecommunications failures, earthquake, storms or other elements of nature, blockages, embargoes, riots, acts or orders of government, acts of terrorism, or war.
