  1. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain of the statements made and information contained herein are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation, and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (collectively referred to as “forward-looking statements”). The forward-looking statements relate to the expectations of BlockMint’s management about future events, results of operations and BlockMint’s future performance (both operational and financial) and business prospects. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. The use of any of the words “anticipate,” “plan,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “propose,” “might,” “may,” “will,” “shall,” “project,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “believe,” “predict,” “forecast,” “pursue,” “potential,” “objective,” and “capable” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included in this Site should not be unduly relied upon. In addition, this Site may contain forward-looking statements and forward-looking information attributed to third-party sources.

All such forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by BlockMint’s management in light of their experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. These statements, however, are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements include the following: volatility in prices of cryptocurrencies; changes in technology and the future demand for blockchain and cryptocurrencies; competition; fluctuations in currency exchange and interest rates; governmental and other regulatory changes; availability of additional financing and reliance of key personnel. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.  BlockMint does not intend, and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update or revise the forward-looking statements contained in this Site, except as required by law. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Although BlockMint has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements or implied by forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, or intended. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated, estimated, or intended.

  1. EXTERNAL SITES

The Site may contain links to third-party websites (“External Sites”).  These links are provided solely as a convenience to you and not as an endorsement by us of the content on such External Sites.  The content of such External Sites is developed and provided by others.  You should contact the site administrator or webmaster for those External Sites if you have any concerns regarding such links or any content located on such External Sites.  We are not responsible for the content of any linked External Sites and do not make any representations regarding the content or accuracy of materials on such External Sites.  You should take precautions when downloading files from all websites to protect your computer from viruses and other destructive programs.  If you decide to access linked External Sites, you do so at your own risk.

  1. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS

BlockMint operates in the United States and Canada, and the Site is hosted in Canada. We make no claims concerning whether the Content may be downloaded, viewed, or be appropriate for use outside of the United States and Canada.  If you access the Site or the Content from outside of the United States or Canada, you do so at your own risk. Whether inside or outside of the United States or Canada, you are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with the laws of your specific jurisdiction.

  1. TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to restrict, suspend, or terminate this Agreement and your access to all or any part of the Site, at any time and for any reason without prior notice or liability.  We reserve the right to change, suspend, or discontinue all or any part of the Site at any time without prior notice or liability.

  1. MISCELLANEOUS 

This Agreement, and your relationship with BlockMint under this Agreement, shall be governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. You and BlockMint agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the British Columbia registry to resolve any legal matter arising from this Agreement. Your use of this Site does not subject BlockMint to the jurisdiction of courts in, or the laws of, any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding this, you agree that BlockMint shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) and to protect its intellectual property or confidential information in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with the Termination provision above, such termination shall not affect the validity of the following provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect: “Intellectual Property,” “No Warranties; Limitation of Liability,” “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Indemnification,” “Termination of the Agreement,” and “Miscellaneous.” You may not assign this Agreement. Our failure to act on or enforce any provision of the Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision or any other provision in this Agreement.  No waiver shall be effective against us unless made in writing, and no such waiver shall be construed as a waiver in any other or subsequent instance.  Except as expressly agreed by us and you in writing, this Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between you and us with respect to the subject matter, and supersedes all previous or contemporaneous agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter.  The section headings are provided merely for convenience and shall not be given any legal import.  This Agreement will inure to the benefit of our successors, assigns, licensees, and sublicensees.
