When you apply to open an Account, we will ask you to provide the type of account you want, our required account registration information [including your email (in case you create your Account using your login credentials of your Google account or Apple ID we will use the email address that you have used to create your Google or Apple ID), self-declare your country of residence and full name] and any know-your-customer (“KYC”) information or documents such as Aadhar card, PAN card, Deposit Bank Account, Withdrawal Bank Account or any other document which we may require from time to time. We will further carry out a verification to ensure that the owner of bank accounts (i.e. Deposit Bank Account and Withdrawal Bank Account) provided herein is the same as the owner of the user’s Account. The users from Restricted Jurisdictions would be prohibited to take the next steps for opening the Account. The e-mail address would then be verified by sending a one-time password to your e-mail address. Once the e-mail is verified, your Account will be created.
    7. Subject to completion of your KYC and approval of your Deposit Bank Account and Withdrawal Bank Account, you will be allowed to use the Services. A non-exhaustive list of the types of information and documents which we may require from you is set out in Clause 5.3 for individuals and Clause 5.4 for institutions. The type of KYC documents provided would be the criteria for determining various conditions/features/rights/privileges linked to your Account. We reserve the right to request more information at any time in order to process your Account opening request.
    8. We may initiate the Account opening process before you provide all of the KYC information or documents. If we do so, your Account will be subject to any restrictions that we deem necessary (including restrictions on access to or use of the Platform) until we can complete our “know-your-client” procedures.

In the event of failure to carry on such additional steps and provide additional documents, we reserve our right to refuse to open an Account or to terminate the existing Account promptly, without any reasons, at our sole and absolute discretion.

We use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the information contained in your Account History and any notices we provide to you are accurate and reliable; however, errors may occur from time to time. It is your sole responsibility to review your Account History and any notices. Any transaction listed in your Account History, or other communication including, but not limited to, Order, Trade or other receipts sent to your email on record shall be deemed and treated as authorised, correct, approved, and confirmed by you unless we receive written notice to the contrary within 3 (three) business days from the date the transaction was listed or the communication was sent (as the case may be).

  7. Security

    1. You are only permitted to access your Account using your user account login credentials and other required forms of authentication. We implement certain security controls to prevent malicious actors from accessing your Account. We also provide the option for you to enable multi-factor authentication in respect of your Account. We encourage but may not mandatorily require you to get any enhanced security feature. If you choose to use the Platform or avail Services or carry out authentication on a device (e.g., mobile phone or tablet computer) on which the operating system has been tampered with in any way, you do so at your own risk. This includes, but is not limited to, a “rooted” (Android) or “jailbroken” (iOS) device. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to prohibit access from or by any device on which the operating system has been or is suspected of having been modified or tampered.

Whether you enable the enhanced security feature or not, you are at all times responsible for safeguarding your authentication credentials and for restricting access to the Services from your compatible devices. You must also ensure that your login credentials are safe, limit access to your Account to authorised persons and control the devices which can operate the Account. You agree that your Account login credentials, and other required forms of authentication (where applicable) chosen by you shall be kept confidential and separate from each other, as well as separate from any other information or documents relating to your Account. You also agree to be solely responsible for maintaining the security of your Account login credentials and other required forms of authentication.

You must let us know immediately if an unauthorised person is accessing or using your Account in the manner prescribed under Clause 32.

    4. If you forget or lose any of the information necessary to log in to your Account, you will need to provide all information required by us in order to facilitate any potential recovery or reset of your Account or Account details. If you fail to log-in to your Account, then we would not be accountable for you any direct or indirect monetary and/or non-monetary losses incurred to you.
    5. You are responsible for monitoring your Account. You must immediately notify us of any unauthorised use of your Account or any other breach of security. In particular, you agree to notify us immediately:
      1. upon any changes to your registered email address associated with your Account;

    APPENDIX – I

    RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

    Trading in Products (as defined in the above Terms), engaging in related leverage transactions and delegating to another account holder the right to utilize Services on your behalf entails significant risks of financial loss. Market prices for Digital Assets and/or Products can be volatile and highly unpredictable. Whether the future market price for a Digital Asset will move up or down is a speculation and unknown. The leverage available in trading Products allows you to establish a larger market position than an unleveraged position and therefore exposes you to a risk of greater loss than an unleveraged position. You should not Trade in Products, provide, or accept leverage or delegate to another account holder the right to utilise Services on your behalf unless you understand the associated risks. This Risk Disclosure Statement discusses some of the principal risks of trading in Products, entering leverage transactions and delegating authority over your Account and/or Related Account, but it does not and cannot describe every risk or consideration involved in holding, trading, or engaging in leveraged transactions in Products or delegating authority over your Account and/or Related Account. This Risk Disclosure Statement forms a part of and utilises certain terms that are defined in these Terms. Risks of trading in Products, engaging in leverage transactions and delegating to another account holder the right to utilize Services on your behalf include, but are not limited to, the following:

    1. Digital Assets Market Risk:

      Market prices for Digital Assets and/or Products can be volatile and highly unpredictable, as the case maybe. Whether the future market price for a Digital Asset will move up or down is a speculation, unpredictable and unknown. The changes market price of a Digital Asset will impact the Products that have the Digital Asset as their underlying. We make no representations or warranties about whether a Product will always continue to Trade on the Platform. Any Product is subject to delisting without prior notice in the sole discretion by us. Digital Assets and/or Products have special risks that are not shared with either fiat currencies, goods or commodities in a market. Digital Asset and/or Product trading is susceptible to irrational bubbles or loss of confidence, which could cause a collapse in demand relative to supply. For example, confidence might collapse in Digital Asset due to unexpected changes imposed by the software developers or others, a government crackdown, the creation of superior competing alternative currencies, or a deflationary or inflationary spiral. Confidence might also collapse because of technical problems, if the anonymity of the system is compromised, if money is lost or stolen, or if hackers or governments can prevent any transactions from settling.

    2. Liquidity Risk:

      Markets for Digital Assets and/or Products can at times become what is known as “illiquid,” which means there can be a scarcity of persons who are willing to trade at any one time. Thinly traded or illiquid markets have potential of increased risk of loss because they can experience high volatility of prices and in such markets market participants may find it impossible to liquidate market positions except at very unfavourable prices. There is no guarantee that the markets for any Product will be active and liquid or permit you to establish or liquidate positions in the Product when desired or at favourable prices. Due to the nature of the Digital Assets and/or Products, there can be situations where we would decide to expire Products prematurely to maintain the integrity of the Platform. Users of the Platform are assumed to understand those risks. There might be risks that have not been foreseen or identified in our Term. You should carefully assess whether your financial situation and tolerance of risk are suitable for buying, selling, or trading Products.

    3. Legal Risk:

      The legality of Digital Asset and/or Products, leveraging them or trading or leveraging them on behalf of others may be deemed illegal by RBI or other such applicable law enforcement agencies under Applicable Law. This can mean that the legality of holding or trading in Products, entering related leverage transactions, or engaging in the foregoing on behalf of others is not always clear. You are responsible for knowing and understanding how the laws applicable to you while you trade on the Exchange.

    4. Cyber Risks:

      Digital Assets and/or Products, their underlying technology, the Platform and other Services may be vulnerable to attacks on security, integrity, or operations of the Digital Assets and/or Products, including threats using computer power sufficient to overwhelm the normal operation of a blockchain or other underlying technology. Digital Assets and/or Products, their properties or underlying technology may change or otherwise cease to operate due to change in the underlying technology, a change made using features or functions built into the underlying technology. While using the Platform and/or Services you maybe prevented from sending a transaction request, or your transaction request email may be received by us or the Services, due to hardware, software, or services issues, including but not limited to internet and other network connectivity issue.

    5. Market Default Risk:

      We operate and administer the Exchange where we will create a market for the users to trade against each other, however we have no financial responsibility or liability for any failure of users to honour any their financial obligations to other user(s) or any other third party. There is always a risk that one or more users will renege, default, or otherwise fail to honour their financial obligations or will be unwilling or unable to abide by the Terms. In the event that risk materialises, other users can and likely will incur financial losses or reductions in gains from their own open positions in Digital Assets and/or Products.

    6. Representation & Warranty:

      You represent and warrant that you have the necessary technical expertise and ability to review and evaluate the security, integrity, and operation of any Digital Assets and/or Products, and the knowledge, experience, understanding, professional advice and information to make your own evaluation of the merits and risks of trading in any Digital Asset derivatives and/or Products, as supported by the Services.

Auto-Deleveraging occurs when there are insufficient funds in the Insurance Fund allocated to a Product. Your Positions maybe Auto-deleveraged with no prior notice and you bear all the risks arising from Auto-deleveraging of your Positions.
