1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Use constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ('you'), and SolHound, Inc. ('Company,' 'we,' 'us,' or 'our'), concerning your access to and use of the SolHound platform and website, as well as any other media form, media channel, mobile website or mobile application related, linked, or otherwise connected thereto (collectively, the 'Platform').

By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you disagree with any part of these Terms of Use, then you may not access the Platform. We reserve the right to change these Terms of Use at any time, and will provide notice of material changes as described in Section 9 below.

2. Platform Description

  • Tracking and analyzing on-chain activity
  • Community-driven token evaluation and voting
  • Token submission and discovery
  • Blockchain data analytics and visualization
  • Community engagement and rewards

SolHound provides information and tools, but DOES NOT provide financial advice. The information displayed on our Platform is for informational purposes only, and you should not construe any such information as legal, tax, investment, financial, or other advice. All content on the Platform is subject to change without notice.

3. Eligibility and User Accounts

  • You are at least 18 years of age.

We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor and remove content that we determine, in our sole discretion, violates these Terms of Use or is otherwise objectionable.

5. Token Submission and Evaluation Guidelines

Our Platform allows users to submit tokens for community evaluation. By submitting a token, you:

  • Represent that you have the right to submit such information
  • Acknowledge that the token will be subject to community votes and evaluations
  • Understand that SolHound has the right to remove any token submission at our discretion
  • Agree not to submit tokens that are intended to defraud users or manipulate markets

Token evaluations, rankings, and scores are generated from community inputs and algorithmic processes. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of these evaluations, and they should not be considered endorsements or investment advice. Users should always conduct their own research before making any investment decisions.

6. Points, Rewards, and Referral Program

The Platform may offer various incentives, including points, rewards, and a referral program. These incentives are subject to the following terms:

  • Points may be earned through platform participation, waitlist registration, referrals, and other activities as determined by SolHound.
  • The value, redemption, and use of points are at the sole discretion of SolHound and may change without notice.
  • Points and rewards have no cash value and cannot be transferred, sold, or exchanged for cash or cryptocurrency unless explicitly authorized by SolHound.
  • We reserve the right to adjust point balances, suspend accounts, or terminate participation in the rewards program if we detect abuse, fraud, or violation of these Terms.
  • Referral program benefits are only granted for verified and legitimate referrals; any attempt to create fake or fraudulent referrals will result in disqualification from the program.

The specific terms and conditions for points, rewards, and referrals may be updated from time to time, and participation in these programs constitutes acceptance of such terms.

7. Intellectual Property Rights

The Platform and its entire contents, features, and functionality (including but not limited to all information, software, text, displays, images, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof) are owned by SolHound, its licensors, or other providers of such material and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws.

Subject to these Terms of Use, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to access and use the Platform for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not:

  • Reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any of the material on our Platform, except as permitted by these Terms of Use.
  • Use any illustrations, photographs, video or audio sequences, or any graphics separately from the accompanying text.

8. Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Considerations

As a platform built on blockchain technology, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

  • Blockchain transactions are irreversible and cannot be canceled or refunded once initiated.
  • You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your wallet, private keys, and seed phrases. We cannot recover lost or stolen credentials.
  • Information stored on a blockchain is public by nature, and any transaction you perform may be visible to third parties.
  • Cryptocurrency assets are highly speculative and volatile. The value of cryptocurrency can change rapidly, potentially resulting in significant loss.
  • Regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies are evolving, and changes in regulations may adversely impact the Platform or your ability to use it.
  • We do not guarantee that the Platform will be compatible with all wallet providers or cryptocurrency types.

You understand that you are solely responsible for determining the nature, potential value, suitability, and appropriateness of these risks for yourself. SolHound does not provide investment advice, legal advice, or tax advice, and nothing on the Platform should be construed as such.
