Using this UI, the User may view and instruct the Digital Assets (on Ethereum and other supported Third Party Blockchains) in their Digital Wallet and connect their Digital Wallet to Third Party Platforms such as DApps and DEXs. Additional services also may include Digital Asset security management services, display of Digital Asset exchange rate and transaction information, and technical services to ensure the normal operation of the OKX Web3 Ecosystem. The OKX Passkey Wallet User Agreement is incorporated by reference into these Terms.

  • OKX Web3 DEX Interface - a suite of UI and software that connects to open-source smart contracts, DEXs, and DEX Aggregators, which allows you to discover and execute transaction routes for the Digital Asset pairs that you wish to swap on DEXs. The OKX Web3 DEX Interface User Agreement is incorporated by reference into these Terms.

  • Outcomes Campaign - a free-to-play campaign that occurs on a periodic basis on the OKX Web 3 Platform. The OKX Outcomes League User Agreement is incorporated by reference into these Terms.

3.3 You are not permitted to initiate any direct deposits into your OKX Passkey Wallet or any withdrawals from your OKX Passkey Wallet to/from any other onchain addresses. In the event you initiate onchain deposits directly into the OKX Passkey Wallet, you will not be able to access such onchain deposits as well as all Digital Assets of the same type as such onchain deposits (whether such Digital Assets were purchased via the OKX Web3 DEX Interface or otherwise). In such an event, you may elect to release your OKX Passkey Wallet from the OKX Wallet Software. Upon release, you will be able to deposit and withdraw Digital Assets through any compatible wallet software. You bear any and all Losses, inaccessibility, fees and Taxes resulting from any deposit or attempted deposit of Digital Assets into your OKX Passkey Wallet from any external source, and OKX has no duty to locate, recover, or enable access to such Digital Assets.

3.7 Once you agree to create an OKX Passkey Wallet using the OKX Wallet Software, you also agree to the Terms and shall be bound by the Terms. You shall bear any and all consequences and liabilities as a result, and OKX reserves the right to hold you fully accountable for such actions. Additionally, as OKX may not access your OKX Passkey Wallet, OKX is not responsible, and you are responsible, for any transactions executed by or involving your OKX Passkey Wallet.

3.8 Transaction times for the creation, trade, sending, receipt, and exchange of Digital Assets by using the Services will depend on actual blockchain network confirmation time of that particular blockchain. On-chain transactions are irreversible once confirmed. Once submitted to a blockchain network, a transaction will remain pending until it is confirmed by that network, and a transaction is not complete while it is pending; transactions may remain pending or fail. OKX does not guarantee the confirmation, speed, or outcome of any on-chain transaction.

3.9 You agree that you shall use the Services for legitimate purposes only, and you shall not have the intention of using the Services as a medium of non-compliance to Applicable Laws.

6. Risk Disclosure

6.1 General. Digital Asset transactions involve significant risk. The use of our Services also involves risks. In this section, we set out a non-exhaustive list of some of the risks below. These risks, as well as additional risks arising from now or in the future can be substantial and potentially devastating. You should therefore carefully consider whether using any of our Services is suitable for you in light of your financial condition prior to commencing your use. You must also seek professional advice regarding your particular financial condition prior to commencing your use of our Services. Finally, please ensure that you review the latest version of these Terms as they may change from time to time.

6.2 Digital Asset Risks. Digital Asset prices may fluctuate significantly at any given moment for any reason, moving up or down and even becoming valueless. The likelihood of Losses is just as likely as profits incurred from the trading of Digital Assets. Due to these price fluctuations, you may gain or lose value in your Digital Assets at any given moment.

6.2.1 Digital Assets Are Not Legal Tender. Digital Assets are generally not considered legal tender. They may not be backed by any physical assets and may not be backed, guaranteed, or supported by any government or centralized authority. Digital Assets may not have intrinsic value either, and their circulation may be limited and restricted.

6.2.2 High-Risk Asset Class. Digital Assets are generally considered a high-risk asset class and may or may not be considered securities under certain jurisdictions. You must therefore exercise prudent judgment when trading Digital Assets (as well as any other assets).

6.2.3 Complex Nature. The nature of Digital Assets may be very complex, and their terms, features, and/or risks may not be readily or fully understood due to the complex structure, novelty, and reliance on technological features.

6.2.4 Value Fluctuation and Price Volatility. The value of Digital Assets may fluctuate significantly over a short period of time. Price volatility and unpredictable fluctuations may result in significant Losses over a short period of time.

6.2.5 Various Factors for Loss of Value. Any Digital Asset may decrease in value or lose all value in a short period of time or permanently due to various factors, including but not limited to, government or regulatory activity, the discovery of wrongful or illegal conduct, market manipulation, price distortion, insider dealing, market distortion, malicious wrongdoing or behaviours, changes to the Digital Asset’s nature or characteristics, suspension or cessation of support for a Digital Asset by other exchanges or service providers, public opinion, or other factors outside our control, technical advancements, and macroeconomic and political factors.

6.3 Trading on DApps. There is no assurance that our trading market for Digital Assets will be orderly and stable. Any Digital Asset or trading position may be subject to large swings in value and may even become worthless.

6.3.1 Conversion Risks. If you convert Digital Assets following the execution of an order or where an order is denominated in a particular Digital Asset other than your primary reference asset, there is a risk that, if the markets move against your position, then upon maturity or any earlier, the net proceeds may be significantly less than the initial amount in your primary reference asset, and any income or gains may be entirely negated.

6.3.2 No Deposits. The Digital Assets that are held by any Third Party Platform or other service providers are not “deposits” nor are they intended to be held as any other regulated product or service under Applicable Laws.

6.3.3 No Statutory or Regulatory Protection. In comparison to other types of assets, including fiat currencies and securities, any Digital Asset transactions may not be subject to a right to claim under any investor compensation fund established by any government or regulatory authority; furthermore, Digital Assets held by any Third Party Platform or other service providers may not be protected deposits, and may not be protected by any deposit protection scheme in any relevant jurisdiction. Thus, Digital Assets may have a reduced level and type of protection compared to fiat currencies, securities, and other asset classes and types.

6.3.4 Commissions and Fees. During the course of using our Services, you may be subject to various fees that may or may not arise directly from OKX. Prior to making any transactions, you must obtain details and a full understanding of all commissions, fees, and costs for which you may be liable. If any of these fees are not clear to you, you must request clarification of what fees will be applicable in specific monetary terms before using our Services or entering into any transactions. OKX may publish any fee schedule on the Platform and update it in its sole discretion from time to time.

6.3.5 Authorized Access to Your OKX Passkey Wallet. Providing any other person access to your OKX Passkey Wallet involves risk. You must take all necessary steps to ensure that any person you provide access to are appropriate and legal. You must also adopt controls and protocols relating to your OKX Passkey Wallet as you see fit in order to monitor the activities of such persons in order to ensure that they remain appropriate and legal in their capacity.

6.3.6 Digital Assets May be Subject to International Laws. Please note that Digital Assets received or held by us may be subject to other Applicable Laws of international jurisdictions beyond your country of residence and/or citizenship.

6.3.7 Designated Persons Risks. There are substantial risks when allowing another person to trade or operate your OKX Passkey Wallet, and it is possible that any instructions you provide are not properly authorized or executed. You accept all risks of such operation and fully and irrevocably release OKX from any and all liability arising out of or in connection with all the aforementioned.

6.3.8 Potential Destabilizing Network Events. Under certain circumstances or situations, it may be difficult or even impossible to liquidate a position in Digital Assets. Certain events that occur on the network may occur rapidly and affect the ability to conduct transactions on any DApp’s platform. Information relating to these network events may be difficult to predict or ascertain beforehand and may be subject to limited oversight by any third party who may be capable of intervening in order to stabilize the network.

6.3.9 Irreversible Nature of Transactions. Digital Asset transfers are irreversible. Thus, accidental or fraudulent transactions with respect to Digital Assets may not be recoverable. You must therefore exercise caution when making any Digital Asset transfers and are solely liable for any Losses that may arise.

6.3.10 Timing-Related Risks. An order made on or via the Services is binding upon completion of the steps described in these Terms. An order will not be reversed unless otherwise provided in these Terms. There is a risk that the final binding order does not occur simultaneously along with your instructions. Thus, you may suffer Losses due to the fact that an order is not carried out at the desired time.

6.3.11 Unauthorized Access. You accept there is a genuine risk that unauthorized third parties may access your OKX Passkey Wallet and make transactions without your knowledge or authorization, whether by obtaining control over a device you use or by other methods.

6.3.12 Materials May Not Be Up to Date. OKX is not obliged to provide any adaptations, enhancements and/or modifications to the materials and information provided on the Platform. This means, for example, that you may have an out-of-date version of the App, and new features may not be incorporated to the version of the App you use. It is your responsibility to ensure you update and download applicable updates and versions.

6.3.13 Unjust Enrichment and Clawbacks. In the event you are unjustly enriched for any reason, you may be contacted by OKX or the Third Party Platform to recover the gains. You agree to fully and effectively cooperate; otherwise, we will take actions, including but not limited to, placing restrictions on your access to the Services, initiating prosecution against you in a court with competent jurisdiction and other measures of recourse. If the event that you do not cooperate, you may also bear all recourse costs. Where applicable and possible, we may trigger a clawback of the funds paid to you as result of the unjust enrichment.

6.4 Cyber Security and Technology-Related Risks. Trading Digital Assets involves various cyber security and technology-related risks and your use of our Services is an acceptance of those risks. Below is a non-exhaustive list of various risks that you may encounter when using our Services.

6.4.1 Forks and Attacks. Digital Assets may be subject to forks or attacks on the security, integrity, and/or operation of the networks, including any network events, as mentioned above. These events may affect features, functionality, operations, use or other properties of any Digital Asset, network and/or platform. These events may also severely impact the price or value of any Digital Assets, and may even result in the shutdown of a network or platform associated with the Digital Asset, whether a DApp or not. These events are beyond OKX’s control. Even if OKX has any ability to impact such event, OKX’s decision or actions may not be in your best interests.

6.4.2 Cyber Attacks and Fraudulent Activity. Relying on Service technology via the Internet exposes you to an increased risk of fraud or cyber-attack. Digital Assets, your OKX Passkey Wallet, the Services, communication methods, or any other part of the Platform may be targeted by malicious persons or individuals who may attempt to disrupt the Platform, an order, or even steal Digital Assets. This includes but is not limited to the following:

  • Malware;

  • Hacking;

  • Phishing;

  • Double spending;

  • Smurfing;

  • Spoofing;

  • Sybil attacks;

  • Social engineering;

  • Majority-mining, consensus-based or other mining attacks;

  • Misinformation campaigns;

  • Distributed denial of service; and

  • Blockchain fork.

Digital Assets, your OKX Passkey Wallet, our Services, communication mediums, or any other part of the Platform may also have vulnerabilities that may be exploited, as well as vulnerabilities in smart contracts and other code, and even be due to or arising from human error.

6.4.3 Targeting by Malicious Persons or Individuals. Malicious persons or individuals may target you and attempt to steal any Digital Assets you may hold, or claim any Digital Asset that you may have purchased. This may involve a variety of creative tactics, including the unauthorized access to your OKX Passkey Wallet, your Private Keys, your addresses, any Passwords, your email or social media accounts, your log-in access details or access method for your OKX Passkey Wallet, as well as unauthorized access to your computer, smartphone and any other devices that you may use. This may also involve individualized contact by a third party who you may or may not know whereby that third party attempts to convince you to transfer your Digital Assets, or otherwise give control of your Digital Assets, to that third party. You are solely responsible for protecting yourself against such actions.

6.4.4 Reliance on the Internet and Other Technology. OKX provides its Services on an “as is” basis. Digital Assets and the Platform depend on the internet and other technology (including various communication methods and mediums). However, the public nature of the internet means that parts or the entire internet may be unreliable or unavailable at any given time. Furthermore, interruption, delay, corruption or loss of data, the loss of confidentiality or privacy through the course of data transmission, or malware transmission may occur when transmitting data via the internet and/or other technology. Any information (including any document or data) transmitted, or communication or transactions made, over the Internet or through other electronic media (including but not limited to electronic devices, services by third-party telecom service providers such as mobile phones or other handheld trading devices or interactive voice response systems) may be subject to interruption, transmission blackout, delayed transmission due to data volume, Internet traffic, market volatility or incorrect data transmission (including incorrect price quotation), or pause and/or delay of price data feed due to the public nature of the internet or other electronic media. The above may result in your transactions not being executed according to your instructions at the requested time, or not executed at all.

You acknowledge and agree that no technology, including but not limited to the internet, electronic devices, mobile phones, handheld trading devices, or interactive voice response systems, is completely secure or reliable, and any of their malfunctions are beyond OKX’s control. Use of such technology is at your own risk. Further, the Services may rely on third-party service providers, including cloud-based services and servers, over which OKX has limited or no control. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, OKX shall not be liable for any Loss arising out of or in connection with any failure, malfunction, delay, interruption, error, omission, or negligence of any technology, system, software, infrastructure, communications network, or services provided by OKX or any third-party service provider (including cloud service providers, telecommunications providers, or data centers) used in connection with the Services. By using the Services, you assume all risks associated with these inherent limitations and agree that OKX is not responsible for any act, omission, or negligence of any third-party provider or for any technological issues that might occur.

6.5 General Digital Asset Market Risks. The value of a particular Digital Asset may decline or be completely and permanently lost should the market for that Digital Asset disappear. There is no assurance that a market for a particular Digital Asset will continue indefinitely into the future since the value of a Digital Asset may be derived from various factors, including the continued willingness of market participants to exchange that Digital Asset.

6.5.1 Liquidity Risks and Losses. There is a risk that you may experience Losses due to the inability to sell or convert Digital Assets into a preferred alternative asset immediately or where conversion is possible but at a loss. Such liquidity risk for a Digital Asset may be caused by many reasons, including the absence of buyers, limited buy/sell activity or underdeveloped secondary markets.

6.5.2 Uncertain Future Payment Acceptance. There is no assurance that any individual or person who accepts a Digital Asset as payment will continue to do so in the future.

6.5.3 Government or Regulatory Authority Interference. You may suffer Losses as a result of value depreciation of a Digital Asset you paid as a result of controls imposed by a government or regulatory authority. Repayment or payment of any amounts due to you may be delayed or even prevented by controls or other actions imposed by government or regulatory authorities over Digital Assets and/or their ecosystem that these authorities control or regulate.

6.5.4 Inflation Risks. Digital Assets may, either because of their inherent design or through network events, not be a fixed supply. If and when additional Digital Assets are created, the particular Digital Asset’s price may decline due to inflationary effects of adding additional Digital Assets to the total available amount of assets in the market.

6.5.5 Whales and Concentration Risk. At any point in time, one or more persons may directly or indirectly control significant portions of the total supply of any particular Digital Asset. These persons are often referred to colloquially as “whales”. Whether acting individually or collectively, these whales may have significant impact, and may be able to influence or cause significant market events that may have a detrimental effect on price, value or functionality of Digital Assets. Furthermore, these whales, or other network participants and users, may make decisions that are not in your best interest as an investor of Digital Assets.

6.6 User Fault or Error. You shall bear any and all Losses resulting from your own fault or error, including but not limited to: not being in accordance with the transaction prompts operation, not conducting timely trading operations, sending digital assets to the wrong address, forgetting or leakage of Passwords and/or Keys, cracked Passwords and/or Keys, and/or your computer being invaded or hacked by others.

6.6.1 Loss of Private Key. You are solely responsible for securing your Private Key with respect to your Passkey Wallet. The loss of your control to your Private Key will permanently and irreversibly deny your access to your Digital Assets. We shall not be able to retrieve or protect your Digital Assets. Once lost, you will not be able to transfer your Digital Assets to any other address or wallet. Thus, you will not be able to realize any value or utility that the Digital Assets may hold.

6.6.2 Use of Jailbroken Devices. The use of the Platform on a jailbroken device may compromise security and lead to fraudulent transactions. You may suffer Losses as well as a termination of these Terms.

6.7 Reliance on Blockchain and/or Distributed Ledger Technology. Transactions involving Digital Assets are most likely irrevocable due to their utilization of blockchain and/or distributed ledger technology. Lost or stolen Digital Assets may never be retrieved or returned.

6.7.1 Irreversible Upon Recording. Once a transaction has been verified and recorded on a blockchain, generally the involved Digital Assets, even if lost or stolen, will not be returned, and the transaction will not be reversible.

6.7.2 Open-Source Software Risks. Digital Assets rely on various types of blockchain and/or distributed ledger technology. This technology is an open-source software that is built upon blockchain, which is still considered a novel and experimental technology. There are many risks that arise from this reliance, including but not limited to: existing technical flaws in the technology, malicious targets, majority-mining, consensus-based or other mining attacks, changes in the protocol or algorithms, changes in community or miner support, rapid and/or extreme fluctuations in value of relevant Digital Assets, the existence or development of competing networks, platforms, and assets, flaws or vulnerabilities in coding languages, disputes between developers, miners, and/or users, and regulatory action.

6.7.3 Cryptographic Innovation. Innovation and developments in cryptographic technologies and techniques, including but not limited to the advance of artificial intelligence and/or quantum computing may pose security risks to all cryptographically-based systems, including Digital Assets, your OKX Passkey Wallet, communication mediums, any other part of the Platform, and even your data, as applicable.

6.8 General Risk Statements. Trading Digital Assets involves various risks in general. Below is a non-exhaustive list of various general risks that you may encounter when using our Services.

6.8.1 Jurisdiction-Related Risks. Residents, Tax residents, or persons having a relevant connection with Prohibited Jurisdictions are prohibited from using the Platform and the Services. Changes in your place of domicile or Applicable Laws may result in you violating legal or regulatory requirements in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your actions remain lawful despite changes to Applicable Laws, your residence, and/or your unique circumstances.

6.8.2 Service-Related Risks. OKX and its Affiliates may have issued certain Digital Assets, but there are many other Digital Assets that are issued by third parties. You must therefore carefully read and ensure you understand all applicable terms of service, product information, and risk disclosures prior to using our Services.

No user agreement, service terms or product information has been subject to governmental and/or regulatory approval unless expressly indicated otherwise. You must therefore exercise caution with respect to any such product offering.

For any Digital Asset services that have been authorized by a regulator, authorization does not imply any official recommendation or endorsement of the Services by the regulator, nor does it guarantee the commercial merits of a Service or its performance. You should seek independent professional advice before making any investment decisions.

6.8.3 Taxes and Accounting. Some Digital Assets and transactions may be subject to various Tax laws and regulations in an applicable jurisdiction. Please note that the Tax treatment and accounting of Digital Assets (including ancillary benefits) is a relatively new area of law and practice that may be subject to changes and further development. Tax treatment of Digital Assets may vary among jurisdictions. Tax authorities may reach out to us with queries, notices, requests or summons that we may be required to furnish certain information about.

Furthermore, there are no agreed-upon standards and practices for how an auditor may obtain sufficient evidence for an audit regarding the existence and/or ownership of Digital Assets and ascertain the reasonable nature of the valuations.

You should therefore seek independent professional advice before making any investment decisions.

6.8.4 Localized Risks. If a transaction is made in any Digital Asset issued by a party that is subject to foreign laws, or any transactions made on markets in other jurisdictions, including markets formally linked to a domestic market, recovery of the sums invested and any profits or gains may be reduced, delayed or even prevented by various exchange controls, debt moratorium, or other actions imposed by government or other official authorities. Before you use make any transactions, you should ensure that you fully understand any Applicable Laws relevant to that particular transaction.

Furthermore, your local official authority may be unable to compel enforcement of its Applicable Laws upon official authorities or markets in other jurisdictions where your transactions and/or Digital Assets may have been affected. You should therefore seek independent advice about the different types of potential redress that are available in your jurisdiction and other related jurisdictions prior to your use of OKX’s Services. If your country of residence imposes restrictions on Digital Assets, we may be required to discontinue your access to your OKX Passkey Wallet and the Services, and may not be permitted to return your Digital Assets or permit you to transfer your Digital Assets from your OKX Passkey Wallet to yourself or others until such time as the regulatory environment allows us to do so.

6.8.5 Regulatory Uncertainty. All Digital Assets are generally exposed to legal and regulatory risks. Legal and regulatory treatment of Digital Assets may change, and regulation of Digital Assets is unsettled and rapidly changing. Furthermore, legal and regulatory treatment of Digital Assets may vary substantially across different jurisdictions. Because of these legal and regulatory risks, any Digital Asset may decrease in value or even lose all value due to any legal or regulatory changes. This may affect the value or potential profit of any Digital Asset transaction.

In order to comply with Applicable Laws or for other reasons as indicated in these Terms, OKX may cancel and/or modify your transactions and orders, or restrict or suspend your use of the Services.

You should therefore seek and obtain independent legal, Tax and financial advice, and you should also continually monitor legal and regulatory updates that relate to your Digital Assets and/or transactions.

6.8.6 Conflicts of Interest. OKX does not act as your agent, broker or fiduciary in connection with the Services. OKX, its affiliates and other service providers may engage in other business activities, including operating centralized trading platforms, issuing Digital Assets, or facilitating the distribution or secondary trading of Digital Assets, which may give rise to conflicts of interest. If any of these operations are not regulated by any governmental authority, it may be difficult to detect, monitor, and/or manage any conflicts of interest that may arise.

6.8.7 Cautions Regarding Forward-Looking or Prospective Statements. Website and internet pages, investor relations releases, oral or written outlooks, presentations, audio and video recordings of events, and other publications from websites may contain optimistic, forward-looking statements that reflect OKX and its management’s current views with respect to prospective projects and events. Certain words, including but not limited to, “anticipate”, “assume”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “may”, “plan”, “project” and “should”, as well as other expressions often identify forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and changes due to many factors, including but not limited to: changes in Digital Asset and fiat currency exchange rates, interest rates, and commodities prices; the introduction of new and/or competing technology and ideas; increased market incentives; and a decline in demand for current Services or other products.

6.9 Services Risks. Our Services as a collective and each as an individual Service involves many risks, some of which are indicated in the Terms. In addition, the following risks, which is not a comprehensive list, may apply:

  • Decentralised technology is not fully mature, and there has not been an established testing scale to determine the safety of decentralised technology;

  • The nature of decentralized technological architecture poses a potentially increased threat of hacker attacks;

  • The decentralized governance structure of decentralised projects, protocols and smart contracts do not allow for OKX to have any control of what may occur beyond the OKX Wallet Software and OKX Web3 DEX Interface.

6.9.1 Digital Wallet Risks. You are responsible for providing the necessary equipment and software in order to utilize the OKX Passkey Wallet, including any hardware and software protection mechanisms and protocols. Attempting to access the Services without the required equipment or software may result in permanent Losses. OKX shall not be responsible for any of these Losses that may occur.

6.9.2 Third Party Platforms and Services. During the course of your utilization of our Services, you may access and utilize Third Party Platforms and Third Party Blockchains. In order to access and utilize our Services, you agree to any and all of these Third-Parties’ terms of service, privacy policy, and any other applicable user agreements. You further acknowledge and agree that OKX has no control whatsoever over these Third Party Platforms and services, and you shall solely bear any and all Losses that may arise from your utilization of these Third Party Platforms. Use of Third Party Platforms involves significant risks, including price volatility, smart-contract bugs, oracle failures, liquidity shortages, liquidation, protocol failure, and regulatory changes. OKX has not (1) verified the safety or legitimacy of any Third Party Platform, or (2) reviewed or approved any Third Party Platform or any representations made by its provider. It is your responsibility to ensure that you fully understand the nature of any Third Party Platform, including the financial risks to which you may be exposed as a result of using it.

6.9.3 Private Keys. Private Keys govern the security of OKX Passkey Wallet, and the loss of a Private Key would mean the loss of access to the wallet forever. You are responsible for keeping, protecting and safeguarding your Private Key that has been provided or that is generated in connection with your use of the Services. OKX is not responsible for your Private Key in any manner. If you lose your Private Key, you will not be able to access your OKX Passkey Wallet, and you may permanently lose any and all access to any Digital Assets or other funds that you may have stored in your OKX Passkey Wallet. You understand and agree that you shall solely bear any and all Losses that may arise from the loss or your inability to use your Private Key.

6.9.4 Careful Consideration Prior to Use of Services. In light of these risks (as well as potentially others that are not listed), Users must carefully consider whether all applicable risks are acceptable prior to using the Services. You also appreciate that the risk disclosure statement herein is not and cannot be comprehensive or exhaustive. You must seek professional advice regarding your particular financial condition prior to commencing your use of Services. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT LOSSES MAY BE INCURRED RATHER THAN PROFIT MADE AS A RESULT OF PARTICIPATING IN SERVICES, AND THIS IS A RISK THAT YOU ARE PREPARED TO FULLY AND SOLELY ACCEPT AND BEAR.

7. Additional Risk Disclosures

7.1 No Guarantee of Transactions. You understand and agree that the time it actually takes for you to receive the Digital Assets in your OKX Passkey Wallet and the time it takes for the OKX Wallet Software to receive information about your Digital Assets from Third-Party Blockchain may vary. This and other technical reasons may mean that the Digital Assets displayed on the OKX Wallet Software may not always accurately reflect the actual Digital Assets in your OKX Passkey Wallet. Any estimated transaction results generated by the Services are illustrative and may vary from the actual transaction results. Such variations can arise from, but are not limited to, network latency, block propagation delays, and other reasons beyond the control of OKX. OKX is not liable for any Losses as a result of the aforementioned.

7.2 Limit of Aggregated Liability. You understand and agree that OKX’s aggregated liability shall not exceed the Service Fees OKX received from you for the past twelve months.

7.3 Amendment of the Terms. You understand and agree that OKX reserves the right to amend the content of the Terms at any time in its sole discretion. OKX shall not be liable for any Losses arising from your misunderstanding of Terms or your delay of reading any amendments or updates to the Terms.

7.4 User Fault or Error. You agree that you shall bear any and all Losses resulting from your own fault or error, including but not limited to: purchasing the wrong Digital Assets, not being in accordance with the transaction prompts operation, not conducting timely transactions on the OKX Wallet Software, transferring your Digital Assets to a wrong Third Party Blockchain or wrong address, forgetting or leakage of Passwords and/or Private Keys, cracked Passwords, and/or your computer being invaded or hacked by others.

7.5 Third Party Content and Services. You understand and agree that when you use the Services, you may access and/or use Third Party Blockchains. OKX shall not be liable for any and all Losses caused by your use of or access to Third Party Blockchains. You understand and agree to OKX’s grant of access to any and all Third Party Blockchains. OKX merely provides Third Party Blockchain and Third Party Platform integration, and other related services. OKX shall not be liable for any Losses incurred as a result of contract vulnerabilities; hacking incidents; suspension, discontinuation, or termination of business; bankruptcy; abnormal suspension; or cessation of Third Party Blockchain operations or other potential risks. Furthermore, you agree to bear any and all Losses you may suffer as a result of the aforementioned risks. If you suffer any Losses as a result of the aforementioned risks, you understand and agree that any Digital Assets that may be stored on your OKX Passkey Wallet may be permanently lost.

The Service may also contain links or functionality to access or use third-party websites (“Third-Party Websites”), applications (“Third-Party Applications”) and other forms of Third-Party Platforms, or otherwise display, include, or make available content, data, information, services, applications, materials from third parties (“Third-Party Materials”), and the Service itself may be integrated or embedded into Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, Third-Party Materials or other forms of Third-Party Platforms through API, SDKs and other means of integration. This does not mean that OKX endorses any products, services, information and disclaimers provided therein, and OKX does not guarantee the accuracy of the information contained therein. When you click on a link to, or access and use, a Third-Party Website or Third-Party Application, though we may not warn you that you have left our Service, you are subject to the terms and conditions (including privacy policies) of another website or destination. Such Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, and Third-Party Materials are not under the control of OKX, and may be “open” applications for which no recourse is possible. OKX is not responsible or liable for any Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, and Third-Party Materials. OKX may provide links to these Third-Party Websites and Third-Party Applications as a convenience and does not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations with respect to Third-Party Websites or Third-Party Applications, or their products or services or associated Third-Party Materials. You use all links in Third-Party Websites, Third-Party Applications, and Third-Party Materials at your own risk. OKX shall not be liable for any Losses caused by your use of such third-party products and services on Third-Party Websites and Third-Party Applications. OKX is merely the Service Provider of the Services, and it has no influence or control of the content and/or services of Third Party Platforms or websites that reside on or outside of the OKX Wallet Software and OKX Web3 DEX Interface, and the operators of these Third Party Platforms or websites are solely responsible for their content and/or services. OKX has no control over Third Party Platforms’ terms of use or privacy policies. Once you use our Services, you acknowledge, understand, and agree to all the terms of service, privacy policies, and relevant transaction and operation rules, policies, or any other rules (as amended from time to time) on the Third Party Platform or other third party websites. OKX and each Third Party Platform are independent legal entities, and these Terms do not constitute any form of agency, partnership, or cooperative relationship between the parties. OKX and each Third Party Platform and any third party shall be responsible for their respective claims, debts and disputes that arise from the performance of their respective contracts and agreements.

7.6 Third Party Platform Malfunctions. You understand and agree that if the OKX Web 3 Platform or the Third Party Platforms cannot properly function or the Services are interrupted because of the following conditions, and you are unable to use the Services or cannot make commands or perform related trading operations, including but not limited to, failure, delay, interruption, lack of system response, delayed system response, or any other abnormal and/or unexpected circumstances, OKX shall not be liable for any Losses. These circumstances include but are not limited to:

Furthermore, you understand and agree that OKX shall not be liable for any Losses arising from or related to any of the aforementioned circumstances.

7.7 Losses Based on Your Lack of Eligibility. You understand and accept that OKX shall not be liable for any Losses caused by any risks relating to your eligibility to access or use our Services.

7.8 Specific Risks with using TEE technology. You acknowledge and agree that the OKX Passkey Wallet service relies on a Trusted Execution Environment ("TEE") and related infrastructure operated and maintained by a third-party service provider ("TEE Provider"). OKX does not control the TEE Provider or the underlying TEE environment. The security, availability, and integrity of the OKX Passkey Wallet are therefore subject to the risks and limitations inherent in such third-party services.

By choosing to use the OKX Passkey Wallet, you expressly acknowledge, accept, and assume all risks associated with its use, including but not limited to, the following:

  • Risk of Private Key Compromise and Leakage: Your private keys are managed within the TEE. There is a risk that private keys may be compromised, leaked, or otherwise exposed due to a security breach at the TEE Provider's facilities, an interception during transmission of data to or from the TEE, or other vulnerabilities.

  • Risk of Service Disruption: The OKX Passkey Wallet's functionality is dependent on the continuous and error-free operation of the TEE Provider's services. Your ability to access your wallet or execute transactions may be delayed, disrupted, or rendered completely unavailable due to failures, crashes, or maintenance of the TEE Provider's systems. Furthermore, OKX may need to temporarily pause or limit OKX Passkey Wallet services to address critical bugs, security threats, or other emergency situations, which may also disrupt your transactions;

  • Risk of Irrecoverable Loss of Private Keys: In the event of a catastrophic failure or data corruption within the TEE environment, private keys generated and stored exclusively within the TEE may be permanently and irretrievably lost. This risk is particularly relevant for Users that may not have an external backup or recovery mechanism.

  • Risk of Unauthorized Transactions and Middleman Attacks: The TEE environment may be targeted by sophisticated attacks, including those initiated by unauthorized personnel or through middleman attack vectors. Such attacks could potentially result in unauthorized access to your private keys and the execution of unauthorized transactions from your OKX Passkey Wallet

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, OKX disclaims all liability and shall not be responsible for any damages, claims, losses, or harm, whether direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary, arising out of or in connection with your use of the OKX Passkey Wallet. This includes, without limitation, any losses resulting from:

  • Any of the risks described above,

  • Any acts, omissions, or negligence of any third-party TEE Provider

  • Any failure of the TEE environment to function as intended

  • Any security breach, service disruption, or data loss attributable to the TEE Provider or the inherent nature of the TEE

10.2 Interest. You agree to pay interest on any amounts with respect to which you are required to indemnify any person under this section or otherwise under these Terms from the date of demand until the date of receipt by that person in full of such amounts and the interest (both before and after judgment) at the rate of interest to be reasonably determined by OKX at that time.

11. Limitation of Liability

OKX’S AGGREGATED LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF FEES OKX RECEIVED FROM YOU IN THE 12 MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL OKX, OUR AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOSS OF DATA, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE OUR SERVICES OR OKX PRODUCTS AND MATERIALS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY OR RESULTING FROM RELIANCE BY ANY USER ON ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM OKX, OR THAT RESULT FROM MISTAKES, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DELETION OF FILES OR EMAIL, ERRORS, DEFECTS, VIRUSES, DELAYS IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION, OR ANY FAILURE IN PERFORMANCE, WHETHER OR NOT RESULTING FROM A FORCE MAJEURE EVENT, COMMUNICATIONS, FAILURE, THEFT, DESTRUCTION, OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OKX’S DOCUMENTATION, RECORDS, OR SERVICES.

19. Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution

19.1 Contacting OKX. You may contact OKX about any feedback or general inquiries via our Customer Service help desk at Support Center. OKX requires all legal documents (including civil subpoenas, complaints, and arbitration demands) to be served on our registered agent for service of process. More information about our registered agent for service of process can be found [here]. Our registered agent will accept service only if the entity identified as the recipient of the document identically matches the legal name of the entity that is registered with the Secretary of State and for which our registered agent is authorized to accept service. By accepting service of a legal document, OKX does not waive any objections or defenses it may have in response to such legal document.

19.2 Initial Dispute Resolution Process. OKX is committed to participating in a consumer-friendly dispute resolution process. To that end, you are encouraged to notify OKX of any dispute within 30 days of when such dispute arises, and not less than 30 days before initiating any arbitration or other legal proceeding, to attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute amicably. Any such pre-dispute notice should be sent to OKX through our Support Center or by mailing it to OKX’s registered agent for service of process as set out in Section 19.1 above. The pre-dispute notice should include the subject line “PRE-DISPUTE NOTICE” and include in the body of the notice: the date; your name and/or the entity associated with your account; the user identification number associated with your account; a brief description of the dispute and how you would like it to be resolved; and any other information that you deem relevant.

All offers, compromises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the negotiation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, and attorneys are confidential and inadmissible for any purpose, including as evidence of liability or fault, or for impeachment in arbitration or any other proceeding between the parties.

19.3 ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED BELOW, YOU AND OKX MUTUALLY AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS BETWEEN YOU AND OKX (“Claims”) SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. These Claims subject to arbitration include any dispute, claim or controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, arising out of or relating in any way to: these Terms and prior versions thereof, this Arbitration Agreement, your account with OKX, your access to or use of the Services, any products or offerings made available to you through the Services, or any communication or representation by OKX or between OKX and you. If there is a dispute about whether this Arbitration Agreement can be enforced or applies to a Claim, you and OKX agree that an arbitrator will decide that issue. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that all questions concerning the arbitrability of a Claim – including the scope, applicability, enforceability, revocability, formation, validity or interpretation of the Arbitration Agreement – shall be delegated to and resolved exclusively by the arbitrator, except as otherwise provided below.

This Arbitration Agreement shall not require arbitration of the following: (1) small claims actions brought on an individual basis that are within the scope of such small claims court’s jurisdiction and remain in small claims court; (2) Claims by you or OKX for equitable relief from infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents); (3) a request for the remedy of public injunctive relief; and (4) Claims that may not be subject to arbitration as a matter of generally applicable law not preempted by the FAA. You and OKX agree that any request for the remedy of public injunctive relief will proceed after the arbitration of all arbitrable Claims and will be stayed pending the outcome of the arbitration pursuant to the FAA § 3.

19.3.1 Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND OKX AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. You and OKX are instead electing that all Claims be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as otherwise specified herein. This Arbitration Agreement is intended to and shall require arbitration of every claim or dispute that can lawfully be arbitrated, except for those claims and disputes which by the terms of this Arbitration Agreement are expressly excluded from the requirement to arbitrate.

19.3.2 Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief. YOU AND OKX AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND FURTHER AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION BASIS. Unless you and OKX agree in writing or as provided in Section 19.3.5 of this Arbitration Agreement titled “Batch Arbitration,” Claims of more than one user cannot be arbitrated or consolidated with those of any other user, and the arbitrator shall have no authority to resolve any Claim or issue any relief other than on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual Claim.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, validity or enforceability of this Section 19.3.2 titled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” shall be resolved only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. If a court decides by means of a final decision not subject to further appeal or recourse that the limitations of this Section 19.3.2 are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular Claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and OKX agree that the particular challenged Claim or requested relief – and only that particular Claim or requested relief – shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in court as specified in Section 18 (Governing Law) of the Terms. This Section 19.3.2 shall be enforced in arbitration on an individual basis as to all other Claims or remedies to the fullest extent permitted by law. Nothing in this section shall prevent you or OKX from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.

19.3.3 Administration of the Arbitration.

Rules and Forum: Any arbitration conducted pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by the FAA and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified herein. The AAA Rules are available at: www.adr.org. In the event that the appointed arbitrator determines that any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is materially unfair or in conflict with the AAA Consumer Due Process Protocol, then the Consumer Due Process Protocol and/or AAA Rules as applicable shall control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties may select different arbitration rules or a different arbitration administrator upon mutual written agreement.

Arbitration Hearing/Location: Unless you and OKX otherwise agree, or Section 19.3.5 below is triggered, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside; if AAA arbitration is unavailable in the county where you reside, then the arbitration will take place in the nearest available alternative location for AAA arbitration. Disputes involving Claims with an amount in controversy of 25,000 or less, exclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, will be conducted solely on the basis of documents that you and OKX submit to the arbitrator. For disputes involving Claims with an amount in controversy that exceeds 25,000, exclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules.

Arbitration Procedure, Award, Confidentiality: Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator may direct a limited and reasonable exchange of information between the parties, consistent with the expedited and cost-effective nature of arbitration. Your responsibility to pay any AAA fees and costs, including filing fees, will be solely as set forth in the applicable AAA Rules.

The arbitrator will decide the substance of all Claims presented in accordance with applicable law, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different individuals, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same individuals to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator shall issue a written and reasoned award describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award issued by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, provided that any award may be challenged in a court of competent jurisdiction. In any award of damages, the arbitrator shall abide by the “Limitation of Liability” (Section 11) of these Terms to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

You and OKX agree that the arbitration proceeding, all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceeding, and any award issued by the arbitrator shall be kept confidential and not shared with anyone except the parties’ attorneys, accountants, or business advisors, or otherwise as required by applicable law, and then subject to the condition that they agree to keep all such information and material confidential. This provision shall not prohibit you or OKX from filing any award issued by the arbitrator in a court proceeding to confirm or challenge the award, although the filing party shall take reasonable efforts to obtain a court order to seal the award.

If the AAA is unavailable as an arbitral forum, the parties shall cooperate in good faith to select a mutually acceptable alternative arbitral forum. If the parties are unable to agree, either you or OKX may ask a court to appoint an arbitrator pursuant to FAA § 5, and the arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the rules of the appointed arbitral forum unless those rules are inconsistent with the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement.

19.3.4 Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. If you or OKX need to invoke the authority of a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, then the party that obtains an order compelling arbitration in such action shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in securing an order compelling arbitration. Although under some laws OKX may have a right to an award of attorneys’ fees if it prevails in arbitration, OKX agrees that it will not seek such an award unless the arbitrator finds that the substance of the Claim or the relief sought by you was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b).

19.3.5 Batch Arbitration. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and OKX agree that in the event 100 or more individual Claims of a substantially similar nature are filed in arbitration against OKX by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations within a 180-day period, the AAA (or other arbitration administrator chosen by the parties) shall: (1) administer the Claims in batches of no more than 100 per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 individual Claims left over after the batching described above, a final batch of the remaining Claims); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the appointed arbitrator, and one final award which in the appointed arbitrator’s discretion may separately address and resolve any individual issues or Claims of the members of the batch (“Batch Arbitration”). You and OKX agree that Claims are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or series of events or factual scenario and raise common legal issues and seek the same or similar relief.

The batching of Claims shall presumptively be determined by listing the claimants alphabetically by last name or business name, as applicable. If the parties disagree on the applicability or enforceability of the Batch Arbitration process, or on the method by which the batches are determined or whether a particular Claim is part of the Batch Arbitration, the AAA shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator (“Administrative Arbitrator”) who shall have the exclusive authority to manage and resolve such disagreements regarding the Batch Arbitration process. The parties agree that the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve promptly any disagreements about the Batch Arbitration process. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by OKX.

You and OKX agree to cooperate in good faith to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of Claims, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes and the adoption of an expedited calendar for the arbitration proceedings.

This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision. The arbitration award in any batch shall not control with respect to any Claim not assigned to that batch.

19.3.6 Severability. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Arbitration Agreement, any portion of this Arbitration Agreement that is deemed unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable under applicable law shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement given full force and effect.

19.3.7 Survival. Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Arbitration Agreement or the Terms, this Arbitration Agreement shall survive any termination of the Terms and will continue to apply even if you terminate your use of the Services and close your account.
