      4. the General Seller Terms, or similar documents Uppfirst may share with you and Buyers from time to time, are intended to apply to achieve the above.

As such, you are responsible for providing the user with your terms of sale and complying with all consumer laws, and we shall be in no way responsible for cancellations, refunds, payments or any other aspect of your UPPNFTs and their Content including any acts or omissions of any user or recipient of your UPPNFT and its Content.

    10.3 The Platform allows you to enter into secondary sales of any UppNFT purchased by you to another user until the expiry date specified in the UppNFT (set by the Seller) for such sale price as you may determine.

      1. Where a cloud storage platform is used, we strongly recommend that you go through settings, write down your seed phrase and store it in a secure location.
      2. In case you lose or change your device, you will be prompted to import your wallet using either your seed phrase or from iCloud/Google.
      3. In case you use two different devices with the same iCloud account, your last backup will override any previous data and you will have to use your seed phrase for the previous account(s) to restore the wallet.

      11.4.4 You are solely responsible for any activity on the Platform arising out of any failure to keep your Wallet Key confidential and you may be held liable for any losses arising out of such a failure.

Appendix 1 - EU/UK-Specific Provisions For individuals residing in the EU or UK, the following EU/UK-Specific Provisions are relevant.

UPPNFT and its content description

The Seller agrees to endeavour to ensure that the listings, descriptions, and visuals of Products, as well as associated references and links to Products and any promotional offers or discounts for Products accessible via the UPPFIRST Services are complete, accurate, and up-to-date. However, despite the SELLERS best efforts, these may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated.
Product Representations and availability (including any promotional offers or discounts) may change without notice at any time. The Seller agree to make reasonable attempts to accurately display the attributes of their Products, including their colors, but the actual colors you see depend on your device, and we cannot guarantee accurate color representation.

Section 7: Terms of Sale for UPPNFTs:

(l) Your right of withdrawal. Under applicable law in the EEA/UK, consumers may have the right to withdraw from the purchase of certain goods and services (including digital services, software, and other digital content) within a specified period of time, usually 14 days.
However, the right of withdrawal is subject to certain exceptions under applicable law. One such exception is that the right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts relating to the supply of digital content, where that digital content is not supplied on a tangible medium (as is the case with the UPPNFTs supplied by SELLERS through the UPPFIRST Platform). This exception applies where performance of the contract for the supply of digital goods has already begun and the consumer has consented to the contract beginning straight away.
As such, when you initiate a purchase of an UPPNFT (Pay Deposit) through the UPPFIRST Platform, you agree to the following terms:

  1. you agree that transfer of the right to the NFT associated with the UPPNFT represents the immediate performance of the contract; and
  2. you acknowledge that you therefore lose the right of withdrawal.
The right of withdrawal does not apply to any UPPNFTS you have purchased or received for free (in the case of Rewards for example) to you. This is because we consider the performance of the contract to be immediate upon transfer of the right to mint an NFT associated with the UPPNFT.

(m) Other Terms:

  1. We will not file a copy of the contract between us.
  2. We are legally obliged to supply UPPNFT to you in a manner that conforms with the applicable terms of sale.

Disclaimers

Unless otherwise stated by us and to the maximum extent allowed by law, the UPPFIRST Services and any content therein (including Third-Party Content and Materials) are provided “as is” and “as available”.
UPPFIRST makes no guarantees about the accuracy, completeness, reliability, currency, or error-free nature of the UPPFIRST Services or any content therein (including Third-Party Content and Materials).

Limitation of Liability
(a) The total liability of UPPFIRST and other associated parties for any claim arising from these Provisions, the UPPFIRST Services, or any Products, irrespective of the claim's form, is limited to the greater of $100 or the amount you paid to use the affected UPPFIRST Services or for the affected Product.
