1. Definitions

Blockchain refers to a permissionless and decentralized protocol supporting a distributed ledger and allowing the transfer of digital assets and data (including but not limited to the Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Polygon blockchains).

Interface refers to the web frontend accessible at app.runbot.io/Staking, which provides a graphical interface for Users to interact with the Staking Smart Contract.

Runbot refers to Runbot SAS, as identified in the Legal Notice above.

Smart Contract refers to the autonomous and self-executing code deployed on the Blockchain that governs the locking, staking, and utility functions associated with the $RBOT token.

Staking refers to the action by which a User locks a quantity of $RBOT tokens into the Smart Contract for a defined period, in accordance with the parameters of the Smart Contract.

$RBOT Token refers to the native utility token of the Runbot ecosystem, deployed on the Blockchain.

Tier refers to the access level assigned to a User based on the quantity of $RBOT tokens staked and the duration of the lock. Tiers are designated Base, Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and VIP, in ascending order of benefits.

Token Utilities refers to the functional benefits and access rights made available to Users who have locked $RBOT tokens through the Smart Contract, including but not limited to: platform fee reductions, access to premium indicators and strategies, participation in competitive leagues and trading competitions, enhanced airdrop reward multipliers, reduced fees for DeFi and DeFAI protocols, and increased referral program rates. Token Utilities are determined by the User's Tier. The specific parameters of each Tier are published in Runbot's documentation and may be updated from time to time.

User refers to any person using the Interface.

Wallet refers to a non-custodial cryptographic wallet (such as MetaMask or similar) controlled exclusively by the User, which the User connects to the Interface to initiate Blockchain transactions.

2. Purpose and Nature of the Interface

These T&Cs govern the conditions under which Runbot provides the Interface to Users.

The Interface is a purely technical frontend that provides a graphical interface enabling Users to interact directly with the Smart Contract deployed on the Blockchain. The Interface allows Users to:

  • Lock (stake) $RBOT tokens into the Smart Contract for a defined period to activate or upgrade their Tier;
  • Consult their staking position, active Tier, and remaining lock duration;
  • Access Token Utilities associated with their active Tier, including fee reductions, premium feature access, league participation rights, airdrop multiplier bonuses, and DeFi/DeFAI protocol benefits;
  • Unlock (unstake) $RBOT tokens at the end of the applicable lock period, in strict accordance with Smart Contract rules.

The Interface does not hold, custody, transfer, or control any $RBOT tokens or other digital assets on behalf of Users at any time. All transactions are initiated exclusively by the User through their connected Wallet and executed directly on the Blockchain by the Smart Contract. Runbot acts solely as a provider of the graphical Interface and has no role in the execution of on-chain transactions.

The Interface does not constitute, and shall not be construed as constituting, any of the following:

  • An investment service, financial instrument, or investment advice;
  • A regulated activity within the meaning of applicable financial services legislation;
  • A custodial, exchange, or brokerage service;
  • A collective investment scheme or any similar regulated offering.

3. Disclaimer

3.1. Nature of the $RBOT Token

The $RBOT token is a utility token with a fixed maximum supply of 100,000,000 units. Holding or staking $RBOT tokens does not confer any equity interest, ownership right, profit entitlement, voting right, or claim against Runbot or any related entity. Token Utilities are operational benefits within the Runbot ecosystem and do not constitute a return on investment or a financial instrument of any kind.

The specific Token Utilities associated with each Tier are described in Runbot's documentation, which is accessible on the Platform and may be updated from time to time. Runbot reserves the right to modify, add, or remove Token Utilities at any time. Such modifications do not affect previously locked positions, but the associated benefits may evolve in line with platform updates. Changes to Token Utilities are not grounds for early unlocking of staked tokens.

The value of $RBOT tokens is not guaranteed and may be subject to significant market volatility. Runbot makes no representation or warranty as to the future value or utility of the $RBOT token.

3.2. Blockchain and Smart Contract Risks

Users acknowledge and accept that the use of Blockchain technology and Smart Contracts entails inherent risks, including but not limited to:

  • Irreversibility of on-chain transactions: once confirmed on the Blockchain, transactions cannot be reversed, cancelled, or modified. Runbot has no ability to reverse, cancel, or modify any transaction;
  • Smart Contract risk: despite reasonable security review, Smart Contracts may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or unexpected behaviors that could result in loss of tokens;
  • Network risk: delays, congestion, or failures of the Blockchain network may affect the execution of transactions;
  • Wallet security: the User is solely responsible for the security of their private keys and Wallet. Loss of access to a Wallet may result in permanent loss of staked tokens;
  • Protocol changes: Blockchain network upgrades or forks may affect the operation of the Smart Contract or the value of $RBOT tokens;
  • Regulatory risk: changes in applicable law may affect the legality, availability, or utility of $RBOT tokens in certain jurisdictions.
3.3. Market Risk

$RBOT tokens are digital assets whose value depends on unregulated markets in which fraudulent acts may occur. Users are exposed to the risk of partial or total loss of value. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

3.4. No Financial Advice

Nothing in the Interface, these T&Cs, or any documentation published by Runbot constitutes financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Users should seek independent professional advice before making decisions regarding $RBOT tokens.

4. Acceptance and Amendment

4.1. Acceptance

By connecting their Wallet to the Interface and/or initiating any transaction through the Interface, Users unconditionally accept these T&Cs in their entirety. Users should read these T&Cs carefully before using the Interface. These T&Cs are accessible at all times on the Interface.

4.2. Amendment

Runbot may amend these T&Cs at any time. Users will be informed of material changes at least fifteen (15) days before the new version comes into force. Continued use of the Interface following entry into force of the amended T&Cs constitutes acceptance of the new terms.

5. Access to the Interface

The Interface is provided free of charge as a convenience for $RBOT token holders. Access to the Interface requires a compatible non-custodial Wallet and a sufficient balance of $RBOT tokens and network-native currency (for gas fees).

Users must:

  • Be of legal age in their jurisdiction to enter into binding agreements;
  • Not be located in a jurisdiction where accessing or using the Interface is prohibited by applicable law;
  • Not be subject to sanctions, asset freezing orders, or similar restrictions that would prohibit their use of the Interface.

Runbot reserves the right to restrict access to the Interface from certain jurisdictions at any time, without prior notice, to comply with applicable law.

6. Tier System and Lock Mechanism

The staking system operates on a Tier-based model. The Tier assigned to a User is determined by two cumulative parameters: the quantity of $RBOT tokens locked and the duration of the lock selected at the time of staking. The higher the staked quantity and the longer the lock period, the higher the Tier and the broader the associated Token Utilities.

Current Tiers, in ascending order of benefits, are: Base, Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and VIP. The specific token quantity and duration thresholds for each Tier, as well as the corresponding Token Utilities, are published in Runbot's documentation and are incorporated herein by reference.

Users acknowledge and expressly accept the following:

  • Staked tokens are locked in the Smart Contract for the full duration selected at the time of the staking transaction. Runbot has no technical ability to unlock tokens before the end of the selected lock period under any circumstances, including in the event of a change in User circumstances, loss of Wallet access, or any other event.
  • The lock period is irreversible once confirmed on the Blockchain. Users must ensure they fully understand and accept the selected lock duration before confirming any staking transaction.
  • Early termination of a lock is not technically possible through the Interface. Users who require liquidity during a lock period must independently seek alternative means and bear all associated consequences.
  • At the end of the lock period, tokens are made available for unstaking in accordance with Smart Contract rules. Runbot does not automatically unstake tokens on behalf of Users.

Runbot does not guarantee the availability or performance of any specific Token Utility during the lock period. Platform features may evolve, and certain utilities may be modified, suspended, or replaced, subject to reasonable notice where practicable.

7. Role and Obligations of Runbot

7.1. Nature of Service

Runbot provides the Interface solely as a technical interface facilitating User access to the Smart Contract. Runbot's obligations are limited to:

  • Providing and maintaining the Interface;
  • Ensuring the Interface correctly reflects the state and functions of the Smart Contract;
  • Making reasonable efforts to keep the Interface operational and secure.

Runbot's obligation is one of best endeavors. The Interface is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without any warranty, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7.2. No Custody

Runbot does not at any time hold, custody, or control any $RBOT tokens or other digital assets belonging to Users. All assets remain in the User's Wallet or locked in the Smart Contract, which operates autonomously on the Blockchain. Runbot does not have the technical ability to access, freeze, or transfer any User's digital assets.

7.3. Limitations

Runbot shall not be held liable for:

  • The outcome of any on-chain transaction, including loss of tokens resulting from User error or Smart Contract behavior;
  • The value of $RBOT tokens at any time;
  • Breakdowns or unavailability of the Interface lasting less than 48 hours;
  • Network failures, gas price spikes, or other Blockchain-related issues;
  • Unauthorized access to a User's Wallet;
  • Any case of force majeure within the meaning of Article 1218 of the French Civil Code;
  • Actions of third parties, including Blockchain validators and infrastructure providers.

8. User Obligations

By using the Interface, Users agree to:

  • Take sole responsibility for all transactions they initiate through the Interface;
  • Maintain the security of their Wallet and private keys;
  • Verify all transaction parameters before confirmation, including token amounts and lock periods;
  • Comply with all applicable laws and regulations in their jurisdiction, including tax reporting obligations on digital asset holdings and transactions;
  • Refrain from any fraudulent, illegal, or abusive use of the Interface;
  • Not attempt to circumvent, manipulate, or exploit the Smart Contract or the Interface.

Users acknowledge that they bear sole responsibility for any tax, social, or regulatory obligations arising from their use of the Interface and their holding or staking of $RBOT tokens.

9. Intellectual Property

The Interface, its code, design, and all content produced by Runbot are the exclusive intellectual property of Runbot SAS and are protected by applicable intellectual property rights. Any reproduction, representation, or use without the prior written consent of Runbot is strictly prohibited.

Nothing in these T&Cs transfers any intellectual property right to the User. The $RBOT token and the Smart Contract are not licensed to Users; Users interact with them solely through the mechanism provided by the Interface.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Runbot's total liability toward a User, under any legal theory and for any cause, shall not exceed the total amount of network fees (gas fees) paid by the User in connection with transactions initiated through the Interface during the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

Runbot shall under no circumstances be liable for indirect, consequential, incidental, or special damages, including loss of tokens, loss of profit, loss of data, or business interruption, arising out of or in connection with the use of the Interface or the Smart Contract.

For residents of the European Union, mandatory consumer protection provisions may apply and shall take precedence to the extent required by law.

11. Duration, Suspension and Termination

These T&Cs are entered into for an indefinite term and remain in force as long as the User accesses the Interface.

Runbot reserves the right to suspend or terminate the Interface at any time, including in the event of a change in applicable law, a security vulnerability, or a commercial decision. Suspension or termination of the Interface does not affect the User's assets, which remain accessible directly on the Blockchain through the Smart Contract independently of the Interface.

Users may cease using the Interface at any time by disconnecting their Wallet and abstaining from further use.

12. Personal Data

The Interface does not require Users to create an account. Runbot SAS, as data controller within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), processes only the technical data strictly necessary for the operation of the Interface, namely server access logs (IP address, timestamp, pages accessed). This processing is based on Runbot's legitimate interest in ensuring the security and proper functioning of the Interface (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Server logs are retained for a maximum period of twelve (12) months, after which they are automatically deleted.

Wallet addresses used to connect to the Interface are public information recorded on the Blockchain and are not personal data within the meaning of the GDPR unless combined with other information. Runbot does not attempt to associate Wallet addresses with individual identities.

In accordance with the GDPR and the French Data Protection Act (loi Informatique et Libertés), Users have the following rights with respect to their personal data: right of access, right of rectification, right to erasure, right to restriction of processing, right to data portability, and right to object. These rights may be exercised by contacting Runbot at: contact@runbot.io.

Users also have the right to lodge a complaint with the CNIL (Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés) at www.cnil.fr.

All on-chain activity is publicly visible on the Blockchain and is outside the scope of Runbot's data processing.

13. Miscellaneous

If any provision of these T&Cs is held invalid or void by a court decision or change in legislation, the remainder of the T&Cs shall remain in full force and effect.

Runbot may assign these T&Cs in the event of a merger, acquisition, or change of control without the User's consent. Users may not assign their rights under these T&Cs to any third party.
