During your application, you must notify us of the number of users which are authorised to use your Account, the Services, Software and the Documentation (“Authorised Users”).

You are fully responsible for all acts or omissions of any third party or non-permissioned user with access to your Account. You further acknowledge and agree that you will not hold SAFEHERON responsible for, and will indemnify SAFEHERON from, any liability arising out of or related to any act or omission of any third party or non-permissioned user with access to your Account.

You may request that access to your Account be restored by contacting our support team via the instant messaging application on our website or App, or by emailing us at support@safeheron.com.
3.6 Upon suspension of your Account for any reason, you will have seven (7) calendar days (unless otherwise agreed with us in writing) to export all information and records previously stored in your Account.

If you do not agree to the revised Subscription Fee and/or revised billing cycle, your sole and only recourse shall be to terminate your Account Subscription(s) in accordance with Clause 16.2.2.3 and cease all usage of the Account, Services, Software and/or Documentation.

6. Services Provided
6.1 SAFEHERON shall, during the Duration provide the Services described in Clauses 6.2 and 6.3 to you if our onboarding processes have been completed and your application for an Account has been approved.
6.2 Private Key Self-Management Services:
6.2.1 Private key sharding service: Our in-house developed algorithm enables you to generate three (3) Key Shards from your private key. When transactions need to be signed, the signature of the original private key will be computed from all of the Key Shards which make up the private key by running it through our multi-party computation protocol. You may recover your original private key through our offline recovery tool, further described below.
6.2.2 Private Key Shard storage service: SAFEHERON will only have access to and control over two (2) of the Key Shards generated from your original private key, which Key Shards will be stored online on our cloud server, secured by encryption and other security management measures. You will have sole access to and control over the remaining Key Shard (“User Key Shard”). Each Key Shard (including the User Key Shard) will be secured by secret mnemonic phrases, which phrases can be backed up and stored offline on separate devices controlled by the relevant Authorised Users via the App. You are solely responsible for the safekeeping of the User Key Shard (and relevant secret mnemonic phrase), which will not be stored or accessible by us at any point in time. We will not be able to recover your private key even if you have lost or lost access to your User Key Shard or secret mnemonic phrase securing your User Key Shard.
6.2.3 Private Key Shard backup service: All three (3) Key Shards may be secured and backed up through the use of separate mnemonic phrases via our App. You may generate a unique set of mnemonic phrases for each Key Shard and will be solely responsible for the safekeeping of such mnemonic phrases. While we will be able to recover your access to the mnemonic phrases securing the two (2) Key Shards stored by us, we will not be able to do so for the User Key Shard as we do not have access to it. In the event that you lose the mnemonic phrases associated with the two (2) Key Shards held by us, we can recover it if you contact our support team via the instant messaging application on our website or App, or by emailing us at support@safeheron.com.
6.2.4 Private key recovery tool: After you complete a local backup of user key shard’s mnemonic phrase, SAFEHERON will automatically and regularly email the private key recovery toolkit download link and backup recovery file to your registered email address. Using the private key recovery toolkit, you may recover your original private key offline with the three (3) mnemonic phrases associated with all three (3) Key Shards. For the avoidance of doubt, SAFEHERON does not, and will never, hold your original private keys and/or the Key Shards in a complete, singular form at any point of time.
6.3 Wallet Management Services:
6.3.1 We will provide you with a user interface accessible through your Account to enable you to manage your digital wallet. You may only carry out transactions from the Account once the Key Shards have been generated and you have completed your User Key Shard’s mnemonic phrase backup. Through the user interface, you may interact with the relevant supported blockchain and enjoy the following functions:
6.3.1.1 Receiving assets: You may use the App to generate a QR code as well as a blockchain address to receive Supported Digital Assets. Given the risk that the address may be tampered with or replaced during transmission, SAFEHERON recommends that you confirm the receiving blockchain address with the sender after the sender has received it.
6.3.1.2 Address whitelist: You may save recipient blockchain addresses on the App through the “whitelist” function. If there is more than one person operating the Account, we recommend that at least two Authorised Users with the “administrator” role check and verify that the whitelist address is accurate.
6.3.1.3 Sending assets: You may transfer Supported Digital Assets out of your linked digital asset wallet through the user interface to external recipients. You may set up and choose your preferred 2-factor authentication method for added security and where the Account is managed by multiple persons, the App may prompt Authorised Users with the relevant permissions for approval on the App. You should ensure that you have sufficient funds for the transfer, taking into account any transaction or network fees which may be incurred. These transaction fees are set by the third party blockchains and networks and SAFEHERON does not have any control or influence over such fees. We do not charge any fees for such transfers.
6.3.1.4 Transaction record: The App will also provide you with a record of the status of your transactions or your recent transaction history which may be downloaded or exported as a excel sheet for your own records.
6.3.1.5 Policy engine: Our policy engine enables you to customize and set your approval policies for transactions which may be carried out through the Account. You may configure triggering conditions based on up to five (5) dimensions (initiator, asset source, destination, asset type and amount). Specific member roles may be assigned and set by you. Once set, Authorised Users with the requisite permissions may modify the policies with the approval of Authorised Users with the “administrator” role. For the avoidance of doubt, SAFEHERON will not be able to make any changes to your approval policies. Please refer to Clauses 5.1 and 5.2 for further details on the Subscription Fee.
6.3.1.6 Web3 interaction: SAFEHERON provides a full suite of Web3 interaction solutions, including the App, browser extension and APIs. You may interact with Web3 applications through these Web3 interaction solutions while benefiting from the multi-party security processes and approval policies set in your Account.
6.3.1.7 API: You can configure your Account and thus the associated digital wallet using the APIs provided by SAFEHERON. As an example, you may automate transaction submissions or signature approvals. These APIs may be utilized either directly or, if applicable, indirectly within an independently developed application. However, all API-based services are subject to usage limits, which limits may be adjusted from time to time in our sole and absolute discretion. If you exceed such usage limits, or are unwilling to abide by such usage limits, we will include the fees payable for such excess use in the next billing cycle.
6.3.1.8 Audit log: The App will also keep an audit log which records all the in-application activities of Authorised Users managing the Account, including records of all interactions with the SAFEHERON support team. You may access and retrieve these records at any time.
6.4 Software and App Updates
6.4.1 SAFEHERON may from time to time provide updates and upgrades to Software. Such updates and upgrades (if any), and their frequency, will be determined and implemented at SAFEHERON’s sole discretion. You are responsible for ensuring that the latest version of the Software is installed on your device(s). Any use of outdated versions of the Software or incompatible devices will be at your sole risk and without prejudice to the generality of Clause 14.
6.4.2 If the blockchain of a Supported Digital Asset forks, we may temporarily suspend the use of our Services in relation to such affected digital asset. We reserve the sole and absolute discretion to determine whether or not to support the forked protocol. In any event, you may opt to transfer the affected digital asset out of your digital wallet.
7. Service Level
7.1 Service Commitment: SAFEHERON will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services available for a Committed Monthly Uptime Percentage of at least 99.90%, save that SAFEHERON shall have the sole and absolute discretion to revise such Committed Monthly Uptime Percentage. You shall be provided at least thirty (30) calendar days’ advance notice of such revision to the Committed Monthly Uptime Percentage. In the event of non-agreement, your sole and only recourse shall be to terminate your Account Subscription(s) in accordance with Clause 16.2.2.4 and cease all usage of the Account, Services, Software and/or Documentation. The Actual Monthly Uptime Percentage is calculated by expressing the Actual Monthly Total Minutes of Operation (defined below) as a percentage of the Committed Monthly Total Minutes of Operation.
Where:
7.1.1 “Actual Monthly Total Minutes of Operation” means the total number of minutes per calendar month during which the relevant Services are made available to you.
7.1.2 “Committed Monthly Total Minutes of Operation” means 1,440 minutes multiplied by the number of calendar days in the month of assessment (save that such number will be calculated on a pro-rated basis for partial billable months), less the minutes during which the Services are unavailable due to any of the following events:
7.1.2.1 planned service outage announced at least one (1) calendar day in advance (including for upgrading, maintenance, troubleshooting works and upgrading or recovery of blockchain nodes);
7.1.2.2 planned service outages initiated by SAFEHERON at your request or direction for maintenance, activation of configurations, backups or other purposes that require the service to be temporarily taken offline;
7.1.2.3 unscheduled maintenance provided that SAFEHERON has used reasonable endeavours to provide you with at least one (1) hour’s –notice in advance;
7.1.2.4 service disruptions due to any force majeure events, such as regional network failures, denial of service attacks, shutdown events triggered by third parties unauthorized by SAFEHERON, accidents, negligence, abnormal physical or electrical stress, abnormal environmental conditions, abuse or misuse of our Services, use of our Services other than in accordance with our Documentation or in violation of these Terms, any attack on SAFEHERON’s servers or networks or any other blockchain networks, any malfunctioning of your devices, equipment or other technology;
7.1.2.5 repair, maintenance or modification of the Software or App by persons other than SAFEHERON’s authorised third parties;
7.1.2.6 service disruptions attributable to, or in connection with use of your equipment, software or other technology or third party equipment, software or other technology (other than third party equipment within our sole and direct control), or from combining or merging our API with any hardware or software not supplied by us (unless identified by us in writing as compatible with our API), or from modifications in any version of our API not made or authorized by us in writing, or from your actions or inactions other than normal use of our API, Software or App; and/or
7.1.2.7 actions or inactions that constitute your breach of these Terms, or that result from a suspension or termination permitted under these Terms.
7.2 Subject to Clauses 7.3 and 7.4, in the event that the Actual Monthly Uptime Percentage does not meet the Committed Monthly Uptime Percentage, you may be entitled to receive Service Credits that may be offset against the quarterly fee payable in the next billing cycle in accordance with the tiers set out below:
| Tier | Actual Monthly Uptime Percentage | Maximum amount of Service Credits |
|---|---|---|
1 | Greater than or equal to 99.00% but less than 99.90% | 10% of the monthly payable Subscription Fees in the next billing cycle |
2 | Below 99.00% | 20% of the monthly payable Subscription Fees in the next billing cycle |
7.3 To apply to receive the Service Credits described above, you must:
7.3.1 notify SAFEHERON’s support team at support@safeheron.com within thirty (30) days of the end of the Quarter in which the incident affecting the Actual Monthly Uptime Percentage occurred; and
7.3.2 submit all information necessary for us to validate your claim, including but not limited to:
7.3.2.1 a detailed description of the event(s);
7.3.2.2 information regarding the time, date and duration of such event(s); and
7.3.2.3 the affected Account and your request logs that document the errors and corroborate your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced with asterisks).
7.4 The SAFEHERON team will assess your claim for the Service Credits within thirty (30) calendar days from receipt of such request from you or such longer time as may be necessary for SAFEHERON. If the Actual Monthly Uptime Percentage of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the Committed Monthly Uptime Percentage, we will issue such number of Service Credits as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion to you within the next billing cycle following the month in which your claim is confirmed by us. Your failure to comply with these Terms (including Clause 7.3 above) will disqualify you from receiving a Service Credit.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT COVERS THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF OUR SERVICES AND SOFTWARE

Prior to entering into these Terms with us, you acknowledge that you have been warned of the risks associated with the use of the Services, Software and/or Documentation and agree that subject always to Clause 14, SAFEHERON is not responsible, and assumes no liability for the following risks:
11.1.1 Price Fluctuation: There is a risk that you may suffer losses due to changes in macroeconomic policies, laws and regulations in any jurisdiction which result in changes in the value of the digital assets held by you.
11.1.2 Unconfirmed Digital Assets Transfer: There are risks that the blockchain network of the digital asset you wish to transfer may be suffering from any delays or malfunction which result in the failure to confirm any transfer of such digital assets.
11.1.3 Risk of Transfer to Wrong Blockchain Address: There is a risk of erroneously inputting the wrong destination blockchain address which result in the irreversible loss of digital assets.
