TERMS & CONDITIONS
INTRODUCTION
We appreciate you visiting the Funoon website, which is operated and owned by FUNOON LTD under the name Funoon. This terms and conditions Document governs your access to and use of our website; including but not limited to, the creation, purchase, sale, exchange, or modification of digital assets; and our online and mobile services, and the software we provide with those services (collectively, the “Services”).
Additionally, this Service offers the functionality of selling and purchasing Digital Assets (as defined below) through auctions (“Auctions”). The detailed rules pertaining to the Auction process can be found on the Auction Rules page.
Using a bridge extension such as Meta Mask to link your digital wallets is the only way to participate in the Auction. MetaMask is an electronic wallet, which enables users to do transactions with Binance cryptocurrency by purchasing, storing, and managing it. You will be asked to download an electronic wallet extension supported by our website and connect and unlock your digital wallets with this extension before posting your unique digital asset for auction or placing an offer to purchase a unique digital asset from another user. The moment you submit a purchase or sale order for a unique digital asset, the transaction is passed to the appropriate extension, which completes the transaction for you.
Several digital assets are listed under the term “Digital Assets”, which are unique non-fungible tokens (NFT) developed on the Binance blockchain (the Binance Platform) using smart contracts.
Third-party electronic wallet extensions are used to facilitate and run all transactions through our services, and you agree to be bound by each extension’s terms of service and privacy policy. These terms apply to MetaMask and are available at (https://metamask.io/terms.html) and (https://metamask.io/privacy.html)
Our role is the part of the platform; we are not a business, financial institution, or lender. Instead, Funoon is a platform for administrative purposes only. Funoon facilitates transactions between buyers and sellers in the auction, but it is not associated with any of the contracts between buyers and sellers of digital assets or between any users.
As a buyer, you bear full responsibility for verifying the authenticity and legality of assets purchased on Funoon. Despite the indications and messages requesting verification, Funoon makes no claims regarding the legitimacy, authenticity, or identity of any assets on the platform.
We sometimes need to describe new terms for specific services due to an increasing number of services. If you use those services, the additional terms and conditions will be part of your contract with us.
Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully because they affect your legal rights. Please be advised that these Terms include an arbitration agreement which will, with limited exceptions, require disputes between us to be submitted for binding and final arbitration. The arbitration agreement remains in effect unless you opt out:
- There will be no class or representative actions or proceedings where you may pursue claims against us; and you may only make claims against us on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member;
- In waiving the right to a trial by jury, you are agreeing to individual arbitration as a means of resolving any dispute.
PRIVACY POLICY
Our Privacy Policy describes how personal information about you is collected, used and shared.

The Funoon marketplace brings buyers and sellers together. A major value of ours is openness, and we aim to provide a platform for a wide variety of discordant content to be exchanged. Our policies establish a marketplace that promotes trust and respect, as well as compliance with the law while offering the widest possible selection of assets.
A worldwide community of users of a radical new technology often exercises judgment in allowing or disallowing certain assets, listings, smart contracts, and collections. Funoon always strives to respect the spirit of openness of this community. As soon as we find inappropriate assets, listings, smart contracts, and collections or are notified of them, we carefully evaluate them against our policies before deciding whether to remove them.
The Funoon site prohibits the listing, smart contract, and collection of assets, listings, and smart contracts Funoon deems unauthorized, disruptive, or illegal. Any listing on Funoon can be removed at any time if it has been determined inappropriate. If you create an asset, listing, smart contract, or collection in violation of these policies, we may take appropriate corrective action, including but not limited to removing such assets, listings, smart contracts, and collections, and permanently deducting referral fees and developer revenue-sharing fees. Even though Funoon cannot evict or impound your digital assets, we reserve the right to delete any metadata deemed inappropriate.
The metadata included in assets, listings, smart contracts, and collections that violates both international and UK intellectual property laws, encourages self-harm or suicide, incites violence or hatred against others, is sexually explicit, denigrates another person, portrays minors in suggestive situations, or is otherwise illegal in the UK will not be permitted on Funoon.
The use of assets, listings, smart contracts, and collections primarily or substantially for funds raising on Funoon is prohibited for known terrorist organizations listed on GOV UK website.
Using Funoon to purchase stolen, converted, fraudulently acquired, or illegally obtained assets is prohibited. Your listings may be canceled, your assets hidden, or your account suspended because of listing illegally obtained assets.
You should immediately contact Funoon at info@funoon.io if an asset listed on Funoon appears to have been illegally obtained. You should include the assets’ ID, contract address, and evidence proving they were obtained illegally. Funoon will review your claim within 72 hours and reply to you as soon as possible. Our team will hide or disable the trade of the stolen asset if we determine that it is stolen based on the evidence.
You must be 18 years of age or older to use our service. Using a parent or guardian’s Funoon account is possible for you if you are under 18, but only if you have the account owner’s assistance. However, the account owner will still be responsible for all activities that take place on the account.

Upon receiving a third-party Claim, you must promptly notify Funoon and co-operate with the Funoon Parties in defense of the Claim. As part of this agreement, you agree that the Funoon Parties will be responsible for defending and settling any third-party claims. You and Funoon have agreed to this indemnity in addition to any other indemnities spelled out in a written agreement.
DISCLAIMERS
Except as expressly provided to the contrary in a writing by Funoon, the service, content contained therein, and digital assets listed therein are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or implied. Funoon (and its suppliers) make no warranty that the service: (a) will meet your requirements; (b) will be available on an uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free basis; or (c) will be accurate, reliable, complete, legal, or safe. Funoon disclaims all other warranties or conditions, express or implied, including, without limitation, implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement as to the service, content contained therein. Funoon does not represent or warrant that content on the service is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. We will not be liable for any loss of any kind from any action taken or taken in reliance on material or information, contained on the service. While Funoon attempts to make your access to and use of the service and content safe, Funoon cannot and does not represent or warrant that the service, content, any digital assets listed on our service or our servers are free of viruses or other harmful components. We cannot guarantee the security of any data that you disclose online. You accept the inherent security risks of providing information and dealing online over the internet and will not hold us responsible for any breach of security unless it is due to our gross negligence.
We will not be responsible or liable to you for any loss and take no responsibility for, and will not be liable to you for, any use of digital assets, including but not limited to any losses, damages, or claims arising from: (a) user error such as forgotten passwords, incorrectly constructed transactions, or mistyped addresses; (b) server failure or data loss; (c) corrupted wallet files; (d) unauthorized access to applications; (e) any unauthorized third-party activities, including without limitation the use of viruses, phishing, brute forcing or other means of attack against the service or digital assets.
Crypto assets are intangible digital assets. They exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained in the Binance network. Any transfer of title that might occur in any unique digital asset occurs on the decentralized ledger within the Binance platform. We do not guarantee that Funoon or any Funoon party can affect the transfer of title or right in any digital assets.
Neither Funoon nor its representatives are liable for losses incurred due to vulnerabilities, failure, abnormal behavior, or other characteristics of the Digital Assets (e.g., wallets, smart contracts). Funoon is not responsible for fund losses caused by late reporting or non-reporting by developers/representatives of issues related to the chain of the Digital Assets – including forks, technical node issues, and any other issue that is causing fund losses.
Any other activity that cannot be limited or excluded by legitimate means is excluded or limited by the Terms, including, but not limited to, fraud, death or bodily injury caused by negligence, violation of laws, or any other activity in violation of our policies.
In some jurisdictions, implied warranties in contracts with customers may not be able to be excluded, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK
You accept and acknowledge:
- In the blockchain asset market, prices are extremely volatile. Digital Assets are also subject to significant price volatility, and fluctuations in the prices of other digital assets could affect them materially and adversely. Digital Assets are not guaranteed not to lose money.
- Taxes on Digital Assets should be determined based on your individual circumstances. Crypto Asset transactions are not subject to any taxation by Funoon or any other Funoon Party.
- Digital Assets are not stored, sent, or received by our Service. It is for this reason that Digital Assets only exist because of the ownership record maintained on the blockchain that supports them. Crypto Asset transfers are performed on the supporting blockchain, and not through this service.
- A currency based on the Internet comes with a variety of risks, including but not limited to, the risks associated with hardware, software, and Internet connections, as well as the risk of introducing malicious software and having third parties gain unauthorized access to your wallet. It is understood and accepted that Funoon will not be liable to you for any failures of communications, disruptions, errors, distortions, or delays in the use of the Digital Assets, regardless of the cause.
- If there is not widespread public interest in creating and developing distributed ecosystems, it could negatively impact that development and therefore affect the potential utility or value of digital assets.
- In the current regulatory climate, blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and tokens are uncertain, and new policies or regulations could adversely affect the development and utility of Digital Assets and the Auction &/or Service.
- As part of the service, third-party platforms such as MetaMask will be used to facilitate the auctioning of digital assets. If we are unable to maintain a good relationship with such platform providers; if the terms and conditions or pricing of such platform providers change; if we violate or cannot comply with the terms and conditions of such platforms; or if any of such platforms lose market share or falls out of favor or is unavailable for a prolonged period, access to and use of the Service will suffer.
- When purchasing user-generated content, there are risks associated with it, such as the risk of purchasing counterfeit content, mislabeled content, and content that is vulnerable to metadata decay, smart contracts that contain bugs, and content that is untransferable. If any of these problems or other issues affect collections, contracts, or assets at Funoon, Funoon reserves the right to hide them. If this occurs, you may not be able to access your Funoon assets. If you are unable to access your assets on Funoon, you cannot make a claim against Funoon.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the fullest extent permitted by law, in no event will Funoon be liable to you or any third party for any lost profit or any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special, or punitive damages arising from these terms, the service, products, or third party sites and products, or for any damages related to loss of revenue, loss of profits, loss of business or anticipated savings, loss of use, loss of goodwill, or loss of data, and whether caused by tort (including negligence), breach of contract or otherwise, even if foreseeable and even if Funoon has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Access to, and use of, the services, products, or third-party sites and products are at your own discretion and risk, and you will be solely responsible for any damage to your computer system or mobile device or loss of data resulting therefrom.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the maximum aggregate liability of Funoon arising out of or in any way related to these terms, the access to and use of the service, content, digital assets, or any products or services purchased on the service exceed the greater of equivalent (a) £100 or (b) the amount received by Funoon from the sale of digital assets that are the subject of the claim.
The foregoing limitations of liability shall not apply to liability of Funoon for (a) death or personal injury caused by a member of Funoon’s negligence; or for (b) any injury caused by a member of Funoon’s fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation
The limitation or exclusion of incidental or consequential damages may not apply to you in some jurisdictions because they do not allow the exclusion or limitation. This limitation may also not apply to personal injury claims involving consumer products, as some jurisdictions limit disclaimers or limitations of liability for consumer products.
MODIFICATIONS TO THE SERVICE
Any changes to, or suspension, or discontinuance of, the Services (or any features or parts thereof) or the Auction may be made at any time and without notice.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION.
- Dispute Resolution. In this section, you will find the arbitration agreement (“Arbitration Agreement”). As a result of the Agreement, disagreements with Funoon must be settled through arbitration, and we can only offer limited relief.
- Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Service, to any products sold or distributed through the Service, or to any aspect of your relationship with Funoon, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify; and (2) you or Funoon may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents).
- Arbitration Rules and Forum. Interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement are governed by the Arbitration Act 1996.
- Authority of Arbitrator. It shall be the exclusive jurisdiction of the arbitrator to determine (a) its scope and enforceability, and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Funoon. There will be no consolidation of the arbitration proceedings with any other proceedings or cases. A motion dissolving the entire claim may be granted by the arbitrator. If applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and/or the Terms (including the Arbitration Agreement) allow it, the arbitrator has the authority to award monetary damages and other non-monetary remedies. Arbitrators must issue written arbitration awards and statements of decision that summarize the findings and conclusions upon which the award is based, including the calculation of damages. Like the authority a judge would have in a court of law, the arbitrator also has it to award relief on an individual basis. You and I both bind ourselves to the award.
- Waiver of Jury Trial. A person or entity may not sue or have a trial in front of either a judge or jury, by virtue of constitutional or statutory rights. Rather, Funoon and you agree that all disputes arising under this Arbitration Agreement will be resolved by arbitration. In the same way that a court would rule on damages and relief, an arbitrator can issue individual awards and must abide by these Terms. A court can only review the award of an arbitrator with very limited authority, as there is no judge or jury in arbitration.
- Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief. This Arbitration Agreement requires that all claims and disputes be arbitrated individually, not collectively, and there can be no class or collective relief available. Customers or users cannot consolidate or arbitrate their claims with those of others. If a decision is issued stating that any of the limitations contained in this subsection are not potentially enforceable, the claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought to a court. Any other claims will be arbitrated.
- 30-Day Right to Opt-Out. If you no longer wish to be bound by this Arbitration Agreement must be notified, no later than 30 days from when you were the first subject to the Arbitration Agreement. If you wish to opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement, you must include your name, address, email address, as well as an unequivocal statement stating your wishes. The rest of these Terms will apply to you regardless of whether you accept or reject this Arbitration Agreement. You cannot opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement if you already have, or enter, any other arbitration agreements with us.
- Severability. A part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement will not be effective or enforceable, except as set forth in this Section. A part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement will then cease to be of force and effect, and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement will be in full force and effect.
- Survival of Agreement. Funoon will be bound by this Arbitration Agreement even if your relationship with the company ends.
- Modification. Regardless of any provision in these Terms to the contrary, Funoon agrees that if a material change is made to the Arbitration Agreement, you have thirty (30) days from the date of the change to reject that change by writing Funoon at the following address: Kemp House, 160 City Road, London, EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom.
GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE
In addition to these Terms, your access to and use of the Auction, and any related disputes between you and us will be governed by and construed and enforced according to UK law, without giving effect to any conflict of laws rules, or principles that would otherwise result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
