RIDO will have no insight into or control over these payments or transactions, nor will RIDO have the ability to reverse any transactions. With that in mind, RIDO will have no liability to the User or to any third party for any claims or damages that may arise as a result of any transactions that the User engages in via the RIDO APP or any other crypto wallet such as Metamask or using smart contracts, or any other transactions that the User conducts via the Ethereum or Binance Chain network.

Ethereum, Binance Chain as well as other blockchain networks that may be used in the future require the payment of a transaction fee (i.e. Gas Fee) for every transaction that occurs on the these blockchain networks. The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run the decentralized blockchain networks. This means that the User will need to pay a Gas Fee for each transaction that occurs on the RIDO APP.

RIDO may charge certain commissions for transactions on RIDO marketplace, NFT sales on OpenSea, Blur or other NFT marketplaces as well as other fees. The User acknowledges and agrees that such commissions will be transferred directly to RIDO.

7. Account

The User must create an Account on the RIDO APP in order to access its services as well as connect the Account to a crypto wallet such as Metamask in order to access the ride-to-earn functionality of the RIDO APP. RIDO may also provide the option to access RIDO APP using third-party authentication provider credentials. The User may thereafter unlock achievements, badges, earn rewards and view the account balance of the User`s Account. The Account is neither a bank account nor a crypto hot wallet. It functions as an on-platform vault of digital assets that may be used to obtain digital goods and/or services on the RIDO APP.

The User may use the Account balance to purchase digital items on RIDO APP, to open and/or mint NFT card packs, participate in paid tournaments, receive $RDC income from playing using RIDO APP and participation in paid tournaments as well as to acquire other services or digital assets that may become available on RIDO APP. Account balance may have no fiat currency value and may not be exchangeable for fiat currency. Account balances that are deemed unclaimed property may be turned over to the applicable authority.

8. Third Party Content

RIDO is the developer, owner and operator of the RIDO APP. Some of the in-app features and tournaments may be developed, owned and operated by third party developers. RIDO will do certain preliminary and periodic checks on such content, however it assumes no liability whatsoever in regard to such third party content, their contents, functionality, useability or any other properties. Third party and User generated content may contain articles, photographs, text, graphics, pictures, designs, music, sound, video, information, applications, software, code, and other content or items belonging to or originating from third parties. RIDO is also not responsible for the content, accuracy, offensiveness, opinions, reliability, privacy practices, or other policies of or contained in third party content. The User should independently review the applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any third party websites to which the User may navigate from the RIDO APP. Additionally, any losses sustained by the User or harm caused to the User relating to resulting in any way from any third party content is the sole responsibility of the third party making such content available to the User.

9. Advertisements

10.6

The User understands that the User bears sole responsibility for any taxes as a result of the matters and transactions with the Tokens, NFTs and for any digital assets earned by User using the RIDO APP, and any future acquisition, ownership, use, sale or other disposition of Tokens, NFTs or other digital assets held by the User.

This license is granted to RIDO as the content is uploaded on the RIDO APP for the entire duration of the intellectual property rights. RIDO is the sole owner of the derivative works created by RIDO from the User Generated Content, and is therefore entitled to grant licenses on these derivative works.

If the User provides RIDO with any feedback or suggestions about RIDO APP, RIDO is free to use the feedback or suggestions however it chooses, without any obligation to account to the User or to remunerate the User.

12. Risks

12.1

The acquisition of Tokens or NFTs by any means as well as the use of the RIDO APP at any moment in time, carries with it a number of risks. The User should carefully weigh all the risks and possible costs, including the non-exhaustive list of risks described in the Terms of Use.

12.2

The following is a non-exhaustive disclosure of principal risk factors which are considered to be material by RIDO in connection with the acquisition, holding and/or use of Tokens, NFT`s as well as the use of the RIDO APP at any moment in time. Users should consider these risk factors alongside all other information provided in the Terms of Use and are advised to consult with their own professional advisers (including their financial, accounting, legal, tax, technical or other advisers and experts) before deciding to obtain Tokens or NFTs. In addition, the User should be aware that the risks described herein may combine and thus intensify one another.

12.3

By acquiring, holding and using the Tokens or NFTs, the User expressly acknowledges and assumes the following risks:

12.3.1

Risk of Mining Attacks - As with other decentralized cryptographic tokens and NFTs based on the Ethereum or Binance smart chain protocol (ERC-20 tokens, BEP-20 tokens, ERC-721 tokens, ERC-1155 tokens or others) the Tokens and NFTs are susceptible to attacks by miners in the course of validating Token and NFT transactions on the Ethereum blockchain, including, but not limited, to double-spend attacks, majority mining power attacks, and selfish-mining attacks. Any successful attacks present a risk to the RIDO APP and/or the Tokens and/or the NFTs, including but not limited to, accurate execution and recording of transactions involving the Tokens or the NFTs.

12.3.2

Risk of Hacking - Hackers or other groups or organisations may attempt to interfere with the Tokens or the NFTs in a number of ways, including, but not limited to denial of service attacks, Sybil attacks, spoofing, smurfing, malware attacks, or consensus-based attacks, and any such similar events which could have an impact on the Tokens, the NFTs, the RIDO APP and any services RIDO may offer from time to time.

12.3.3

Risk of Security Weakness - There is a risk that the Tokens, the NFTs and/or the RIDO APP may unintentionally include weaknesses or bugs in the source code interfering with the use of or causing the loss of the Tokens or the NFTs; the source code of the RIDO APP is open and could be updated, amended, altered or modified from time to time. RIDO is unable to foresee or guarantee the precise result of an update, amendment, alteration or modification. As a result, any update, amendment, alteration or modification could lead to an unexpected or unintended outcome that adversely affects the Tokens, the NFTs or the RIDO APP. As a result, the Tokens or the NFTs may be lost.

12.3.4

Risk of no Listing or Low/no Liquidity - Even though there are currently online services available which enable exchange of cryptographic tokens with other such tokens or even enable the exchange of cryptographic tokens for fiat money and Tokens may be listed on one or several centralized and decentralized crypto exchanges, there are no warranties and/or guarantees that the Tokens will be made available for exchange with other cryptographic tokens and/or fiat money at all times in the future, and no guarantees are given whatsoever with regard to the capacity and/or volume of such exchange/s. It shall be explicitly cautioned that such exchanges might be subject to poorly-understood regulatory oversight, and the RIDO does not give any warranties in regard to any exchange services providers. The User might be exposed to fraud and failure risks affecting those exchanges.

12.3.5

Risk of Tokens and/or NFTs Losing Value - RIDO APP is intended to be financially self-sufficient, and RIDO itself is a non-profit entity with its only purpose being development and advancement of the RIDO APP. Nevertheless, if the value of BTC, ETH, Tokens and/or NFTs fluctuates, RIDO may not be able to fund development to the extent necessary, or may not be able to develop or maintain the RIDO APP in the manner that it intended. In addition to the usual market forces, there are several potential events which could exacerbate the risk of unfavourable fluctuation in the value of ETH, the Tokens or the NFTs, including another DAO-like attack on the Ethereum network, or significant security incidents or market irregularities at one or more of the major cryptocurrency exchanges.

12.3.6

Risk of Malfunction in Blockchain - It is possible that the Tokens and/or the NFTs are interacting with malfunctions in an unfavourable way, including but not limited to one that results in the loss of Tokens and/or NFTs or prevents their use on the RIDO APP.

12.3.7

Risk of Competition - It is possible that alternative platforms could be established that utilise the same open source code and protocol underlying the RIDO APP and attempt to facilitate services that are materially similar to the RIDO APP. The RIDO APP may compete with these alternatives, which could negatively impact the RIDO APP, including the utility of the Tokens and/or the NFTs for use on the RIDO APP.

12.3.8

Risk of Uninsured Losses - Unlike bank accounts or accounts at some other financial institutions, the Tokens and/or NFTs are uninsured unless the User specifically obtains private insurance to insure them. Thus, in the event of loss of the Tokens and/or the NFTs or loss of value of the Tokens and/or the NFTs, there is no public insurer or private insurance arranged by RIDO to offer recourse to the User.

12.3.9

Regulatory Risk - The regulatory status of the Tokens and/or the NFTs in general, initial Token or NFT offerings, and distributed ledger technology is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. It is difficult to predict how or whether regulatory authorities may apply existing regulation with respect to such technology and its applications, including the RIDO APP, the Tokens and/or the NFTs. It is likewise difficult to predict how or whether legislatures or regulatory agencies may implement regulatory actions or changes to law and regulation affecting distributed ledger technology and its applications, including the RIDO APP, the Tokens and/or the NFTs. Regulatory actions or changes to law and regulation could negatively impact the Tokens, the NFTs and/or the RIDO APP in various ways, including, but not limited to, a determination that the acquisition, holding and use or disposal and transfer of the Tokens and/or the NFTs constitutes a regulated instrument that requires registration or licensing of those instruments or some or all of the parties involved in the acquisition, contribution, sale and delivery thereof. RIDO may cease operations or interrupt the availability and/or use of the Tokens and/or the NFTs in a jurisdiction in the event that regulatory actions, or changes to law or regulation, make it illegal to operate in such jurisdiction, or commercially undesirable or no longer viable to obtain the necessary regulatory approval/s to operate in such jurisdiction or to provide the RIDO APP. RIDO may be subject to a variety of domestic, national, EU, U.S. and international laws, regulations and directives, including those with respect to privacy and data protection, consumer protection, data security, and others. These laws, regulations and directives, and the interpretation or application of these laws, regulations and directives, could change. In addition, new laws, regulations or directives affecting RIDO, the RIDO APP, the Tokens, and/or the NFTs could be enacted, which could impact the utility of the Tokens and/or the NFTs and their use on the RIDO APP. Additionally, the Users may be subject to industry specific laws and regulations or licensing requirements. If either the User or RIDO fails to comply with any of these licensing requirements or other applicable laws or regulations, or if such laws and regulations or licensing requirements become more stringent or are otherwise expanded, it could adversely impact the Tokens, the NFTs and/or the RIDO APP, including the utility of the Tokens and/or the NFTs on the RIDO APP. The User hereby accepts the risk that in some jurisdictions either of the Tokens or NFTs might be considered, now or in the future, a security token, a hybrid token or similar. In this case RIDO gives no representations, warranties or guarantees that the Tokens are not considered to be security tokens, hybrid tokens or similar in all jurisdictions. The User hereby accepts to be solely responsible of the legal, financial and any other risks connected to the Tokens as securities in the User`s jurisdiction and to be solely responsible to check if the holding, using and the disposal of Tokens is legal in the respective jurisdiction. Also, changes in laws, regulations and directives governing the operations of RIDO may adversely affect its operations and consequently the RIDO APP. Any change in the tax or legal status of RIDO, or in taxation legislation in Switzerland or elsewhere, could affect the value of its financial holdings, its business and the ability of RIDO to achieve its objectives and continual commitment to the advancement and development of the RIDO APP.

12.3.10

Sanctions Risk – RIDO is and operating under the Swiss Law, however it intends to operate globally in as many jurisdictions as is permissible under the local and regional laws and regulations. Therefore, RIDO and/or any of the exchanges and/or marketplaces where the Tokens and/or the NFTs are normally traded may have a statutory duty to comply with Swiss, European Union, United States, United Nations or other sanctions, and either the RIDO APP and/or the Tokens and/or the NFT may cease to be available, usable or transferrable in the User`s jurisdiction.

12.3.11

Taxation Risk - The tax characterization of the Tokens and of the NFTs is uncertain. The User must seek his/her/their own tax advice in connection with purchasing the Tokens and/or the NFTs, which may result in adverse tax consequences to the User, including withholding taxes, income taxes and tax reporting requirements.

12.3.12

Loss of Relevance Risk - It is possible that the Tokens, the NFTs and/or the RIDO APP will no longer be used by a large number of individuals, companies and other entities or that there will be limited interest in the use of the Tokens, the NFTs and/or the RIDO APP. Such a lack of use or interest could negatively impact the development of the RIDO APP and therefore the potential utility of the Tokens and/or the NFTs.

12.3.13

Internet Transmission Risk - There are risks associated with using the Tokens and/or the NFTs including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and internet connections, or other technologies on which the RIDO APP or the use of Tokens and/or NFTs relies. Such failures may result in disruptions in communication, errors, distortions or delays when using the Tokens, the NFTs and/or the RIDO APP.

12.3.14

Risk of Dissolution of RIDO - It is possible that, due to any number of reasons, including, but not limited to, a decrease in utility of the Tokens and/or the NFTs, the failure of commercial relationships, or intellectual property ownership challenges, unfavourable market conditions and added compliance and regulatory obligations, the use of the Tokens and/or the NFTs on the RIDO APP may no longer be viable to be offered or RIDO may need to cease its operations and be dissolved and liquidated.

12.3.15

Other Inherent Risks - The User understands and accepts the inherent risks associated with the Tokens and/or the NFTs, to the extent not covered elsewhere in these Terms of Use, including, but not limited to, risks associated with (a) money laundering; (b) fraud; (c) exploitation for illegal purposes; and (d) any other unanticipated risks.

12.3.16

Unanticipated Risks - Cryptographic tokens as well as blockchain are a new and untested technology. In addition to the risks included in these Terms of Use there are other risks associated with the User`s acquisition, holding and use of Tokens and/or the NFTs, including some that RIDO cannot or may not anticipate. Such risks may further materialise as unanticipated variations or combinations of the risks set out hereinabove. The User hereby represents and warrants that he/she/they will take sole responsibility for any restrictions and risks associated with the holding or use of the Tokens and/or the NFTs. If any of the risks, mentioned in the Terms of Use are unacceptable or the User is not in a position to understand or undertake them, the User should not acquire, hold or use the Tokens and/or the NFTs.

13. Anti-Money Laundering

RIDO reserves the right to question the User and to request documentation necessary for Know Your Client purposes as well as proving the source of funds utilised to acquire the Tokens or the NFTs prior to providing access to the RIDO APP or enabling any direct sales of the Tokens or the NFTs. RIDO also reserves the right, at their sole discretion, to terminate a User`s use of the RIDO APP and any other requested related or unrelated services or any portion thereof at any time, without notice, in particular due to legal grounds arising from anti-money laundering and Know Your Client regulation and procedures.

14. Taxation

Further to the risks in relation to taxation as outlined in these Terms of Use, the User bears the sole responsibility to determine and comply with any factual or potential tax liability, if any, resulting from the acquisition of, the holding, use or disposal of the Tokens and/or the NFTs. RIDO is not in any way and under no condition bound to compensate for User`s tax obligation or give any advice related to tax issues, including but not limited to what kind of filing or reporting he needs to do with the competent tax authority, which taxes and to which extent he is obliged to pay, which tax exemptions he is eligible to, or any other similar verifications and/or obligations.

15. Disclaimers

15.1

By using the RIDO APP and thereby accepting these Terms of Use, the User understands and agrees that access to and use of RIDO APP is atthe sole risk of the User, and that the RIDO APP is provided "as is"and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. To the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law, RIDO, its affiliates, and licensors make no express warranties and hereby disclaim all implied warranties regarding the RIDO APP, NFTs, Tokens and any part of them, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, correctness, accuracy, or reliability. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, RIDO, its affiliates, and licensors do not represent or warrant to the User that: (i) access to or use of the RIDO APP, NFTs or Tokens will meet the requirements of the User, (ii) User`s access to or use of the RIDO APP, NFTs or Tokens will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or free from error, (iii) usage data provided through the RIDO APP, NFTs or Tokens will be accurate, (iii) the RIDO APP, NFTs or Tokens or any content, services, or features made available on or through the RIDO APP, NFTs or Tokens are free of viruses or other harmful components, or (iv) that any data that User discloses when using the RIDO APP, NFTs or Tokens will be secure. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties in contracts with consumers, so some or all of the above exclusions may not apply to the User.

15.2
