4. Our Services and Payment for Selected Services
WatermelonBlock makes cryptocurrency investment and trading simple enough to fit into your lifestyle. Certain Services are provided to you free-of-charge. Other Services require payment before you can access them.
We are committed to ensuring that the app is as useful and efficient as possible. For that reason, we reserve the right to make changes to the app or to charge for any additional Services, at any time and for any reason. We will never charge you for the app or the Services provided under the app without making it very clear to you exactly what you’re paying for.
Paid Services can be purchased using our WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB). If you change your mind for any or no reason and decide not to purchase any of our paid Services at any time, or if WatermelonBlock terminates these Terms & Conditions with you, do note that to the extent permitted under applicable law, any and all WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) that you may still have in your e-wallet at the time of termination will not be refundable, whether in the form of fiat currency or other cryptocurrency
You acknowledge that as the WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) will be the mode of payment for the Services, the value of the WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) , as with other crypto tokens, may fluctuate significantly and become reduced in value for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to, supply and demand, overall crypto tokens’ market conditions, political or geographical reasons, changes in regulations in any jurisdiction, or other technical reasons, and you agree that WatermelonBlock will in no way be liable for any fluctuations in values of the WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) which may cause the value of your WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) to be of a lower value than that at the time the WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) was purchased by you.
We will make reasonable efforts to keep our Services and the app operational. However, certain technical difficulties or maintenance may, from time to time, result in temporary interruptions.

5. Your Obligations
You agree that in using the app, you will:
a) Provide us with true, accurate, complete and up-to-date information that we may so request from you in order to provide our Service in the app.
b) keep your phone and access to the app secure. We therefore recommend that you do not jailbreak or root your phone, which is the process of removing software restrictions and limitations imposed by the official operating system of your device. It could make your phone vulnerable to malware/viruses/malicious programs, compromise your phone’s security features and it could mean that the app won’t work properly or at all;
c) Not use any device, software or routine, including but not limited to any viruses, trojan horses, worms or bots intended to damage or interfere with the proper working of the app and/or to expropriate any content or personal data from the app;
d) Not share with or permit others to use your account, account information or password for your account;
e) Not assign or otherwise transfer your account to any other person or entity;
f) Provide true, accurate, complete, and up-to-date information that is requested of you from time to time;
g) Promptly update any information about you that you have provided to us to ensure that such information is true, accurate, complete and up-to-date;
h) Responsibly maintain the confidentiality of your account details, including any passwords that may be used to access your account. You must promptly notify us in writing at hello@144.130.107.87:8003/melonsite if you know or suspect that your account has been compromised by a third party;
i) Not use the WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) purchased for any illegal activities, including but not limited to money laundering and the financing of terrorism.

You agree that WatermelonBlock shall not be held liable in any way whatsoever for any losses or damage that you may suffer arising from any unauthorized use of your account by a third party.
You agree that WatermelonBlock shall be under no obligation to investigate the authenticity of any activity conducted through your account to verify the authenticity of the user operating that account.
6. Exclusion of Liability
You should be aware that there are certain things that WatermelonBlock will not take responsibility for. Certain functions of the app will require the app to have an active internet connection. The connection can be Wi-Fi, or provided by your mobile network provider, but WatermelonBlock cannot take responsibility for the app not working at full functionality if you don’t have access to Wi-Fi or data, and /or you don’t have any of your data allowance left.
If you’re using the app outside of an area with Wi-Fi, you should remember that your terms of the agreement with your mobile network provider will still apply. As a result, you may be charged by your mobile provider for the cost of data for the duration of the connection while accessing the app, or other third party charges. In using the app, you’re accepting responsibility for any such charges, including roaming data charges if you use the app outside of your home territory (i.e. region or country) without turning off data roaming. If you are not the bill payer for the device on which you’re using the app, please be aware that we assume that you have received permission from the bill payer for using the app.
Along the same lines, WatermelonBlock cannot take responsibility for the way you use the app.You need to make sure that your device stays charged – if it runs out of battery and you can’t turn it on to avail the Service, WatermelonBlock will not be responsible for any losses that you may incur arising from such failure to avail yourself of the Service.
With respect to WatermelonBlock’s responsibility for your use of the app, when you’re using the app, it’s important to bear in mind that although we endeavour to ensure that it is updated and correct at all times, we do rely on third parties to provide information to us so that we can make it available to you. WatermelonBlock accepts no liability for any loss, direct or indirect, you may suffer or incur as a result of relying on the information provided in the app by us. You have the duty to verify and seek professional advice for any cryptocurrency investments made by you that are not executed by our artificial intelligence. .
At some point, we may wish to update the app. The app is currently available on Android and iOS – the requirements for both systems (and for any additional systems we decide to extend the availability of the app to) may change, and you’ll need to download the updates if you want to keep using the app. WatermelonBlock does not promise that it will always update the app so that it is relevant to you and/or works with the iOS/Android version that you have installed on your device, and excludes all liability arising therefrom. However, you promise to always accept updates to the app when offered to you.
Without prejudice to the foregoing, and to the maximum extent permitted by law, Watermelon or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, contractors, suppliers, successors or assigns, shall in no event be liable to you whether based on contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential damages, losses, expenses, liabilities under any causes of action or any damages whatsoever, including without limitation, damages for loss of data, loss of opportunity, loss of goodwill, loss of profits (whether revenue or anticipated profits), loss of savings, loss of business, or any other losses to third parties, arising out of or in connection with:
a) The accuracy, completeness, or legality of information provided by third parties that we use to provide the Services to you;
b) Any access, use or inability to access or use the app that is not a direct result of any act or omission on our part;
c) Any act or omission that you are responsible for which contributed to any loss, damage or liability suffered by you; and/or
d) Any losses suffered by you from any trade made under your account upon reliance on the Services provided by us through the app,
e) The security, reliability, timeliness and performance of the app
f) The loss of your WatermelonBlock Tokens (WMB) after it has been transferred to your account by reason of your failure to maintain or backup an accurate record of your password or the password cracking by any unauthorized third party due to the lack of maintenance of your password,
We do not execute trades on your behalf and are not responsible for ensuring that any or all trades made by you after reliance on the Services will be profitable. You are to rely solely on your own knowledge, judgment and assessment when using the Services. In the event that our additional Services include the execution of trades through the use of artificial intelligence software, we shall not be responsible for the outcome of any trades made under your account, whether by you or whether by our artificial intelligence software. We therefore specifically disclaim any liability arising in connection therewith to any of the aforesaid.
WatermelonBlock’s business model and product suite offered to you under the app may change or need to be modified from time to time because of regulatory and compliance requirements under any applicable laws in any jurisdiction. In such a case, you acknowledge that WatermelonBlock will not be held liable for any direct or indirect loss or damages caused by such change.
