Sisterhood Club. Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: September 2022


These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement ("Agreement") between you and Sisterhood Club Pty Ltd ACN 658 373 329 trading as Sisterhood Club governing your access to and use of the Sisterhood Club website with URL address http://www.sisterhoodclub.io, and any other websites and sub-domains through which Sisterhood Club makes the NFTs, services and functions available, our mobile, tablet and other smart device applications ("Application"), and application program interfaces and all associated NFTs (collectively referred to as the “Platform”). Our Non-Discrimination Policy, Non-Coercion Policy, Content Policy and other Policies applicable to your use of the Platform are incorporated by reference into this Agreement. 

The term ‘Sisterhood Club' or ‘us’ or ‘our’ or ‘we’ refers to Sisterhood Club Pty Ltd ACN 658 373 329, the owner of the Platform. The term ‘you’ or ‘your’ refers to any person using or accessing the Platform (whether Member, User or Artist as context requires).

By continuing to use the Platform, you agree with the terms of our Privacy Policy, any and all payment processing NFTs through or in connection with your use of the Platform ("Payment NFTs") which are provided to you by one or more Sisterhood Club Payments entities (individually and collectively, as appropriate, "Sisterhood Club Payments") as set out in the Payments Terms and Service Fees ("Payments Terms"). Our collection and use of personal information in connection with your access to and use of the Platform is governed by our Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree with any of these terms and conditions, you must not use the Platform.

Platform Conditions


Online Presence for Members

The Platform is an online presence providing and enabling various tools, services, features and functions provided on or in connection with our services that enables:


  • Registered users (“Users”) to interact with other Users and participate in the Sisterhood School in viewing materials and courses on social media for business, conscious parenting, personal finances, meditations, fitness classes and Collective Content; and
  • Registered artists ("Artists") to view, explore, and create NFTs and use our tools, at your own discretion, to connect directly with others to purchase, sell, or transfer NFTs on public blockchains. 
  • “NFT” means a non-fungible token or similar digital item implemented on a blockchain (such as the Ethereum blockchain), which uses smart contracts to link to or otherwise be associated with certain content or data.
  • Users and Artists are “Members”.


Relationship between Members and Sisterhood Club


As the provider of the Platform, Sisterhood Club does not own, create, mint, sell, resell, provide, control, manage, offer, deliver, curate, promote, endorse, or supply any NFT’s, nor is Sisterhood Club a retailer or supplier of NFT’s. Artists alone are responsible for their NFT’s. Sisterhood Club is not and does not become a party to or other participant in any contractual relationship between Members or between and Artists and third parties, nor is Sisterhood Club an insurer or broker or trader or promoter. 

Sisterhood Club is not a wallet provider, exchange, broker, financial institution, or creditor. Sisterhood Club provides a peer-to-peer web3 service that helps Artists discover and directly interact with each other and NFTs available on public blockchains. We do not have custody or control over the NFTs or blockchains you are interacting with and we do not execute or effectuate purchases, transfers, or sales of NFTs. To use our Service, you must use a third-party wallet which allows you to engage in transactions on blockchains.


Sisterhood Club is not party to any agreement between any Artists and any third party. You bear full responsibility for verifying the identity, legitimacy, and authenticity of NFTs that you purchase from third-party sellers using the Service and we make no claims about the identity, legitimacy, functionality, or authenticity of Artists or NFTs (and any content associated with such NFTs) visible on the Service.


Sisterhood Club is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any Member, except as specified in the Payments Terms.

Resolution of Disputes


  • While we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes, Sisterhood Club has no control over and does not guarantee:


  • the existence, authenticity, quality, fitness for purpose, suitability, or legality of any NFT;


  • the identity of Artists or Users or whether the Member is trustworthy, safe or suitable;


  • the truth or accuracy of any Ratings, Reviews, or other Member Content (as defined below); or


  • the performance or conduct of any Member or third party. 


No Endorsement or Verification


Sisterhood Club does not endorse any Member or NFT. Any references to a Member being "verified" (or similar language) only indicates that the Member has completed a relevant verification or identification process and nothing else. Any such description is not an endorsement, certification or guarantee by Sisterhood Club about any Member, including of the Member's identity or background or whether the Member is trustworthy, safe or suitable. 


You should always exercise due diligence and care when deciding whether to purchase a NFT, or communicate and interact with other Members or Artists, whether online or in person. 


Verified Images (as defined below) are intended only to indicate a photographic representation of a Listing or NFT at the time the photograph was taken, and are therefore not an endorsement by Sisterhood Club of any Member or NFT.

Relationship


If you choose to use the Platform as a Member, your relationship with Sisterhood Club is limited to being an independent, third-party contractor, and not an employee, agent, joint venturer or partner of Sisterhood Club for any reason, and you act exclusively on your own behalf and for your own benefit, and not on behalf, or for the benefit, of Sisterhood Club.


Use of Member Content


To promote the Platform and to increase the exposure of NFTs to potential Members, Member Content may be displayed on other websites, in applications, within emails, and in online and offline advertisements. 


To assist Members who speak different languages, NFTs and other Member Content may be translated, in whole or in part, into other languages. Sisterhood Club cannot guarantee the accuracy or quality of such translations and Members are responsible for reviewing and verifying the accuracy of such translations. 


The Platform may contain translations powered by Google or other language translation providers. Google and other language translation providers (as appropriate) disclaim all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties for merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.


Links to Third Party NFTs


The Platform may contain links to third-party websites or resources (“Third-Party NFTs”). Such Third-Party NFTs may be subject to different terms and conditions and privacy practices. Sisterhood Club is not responsible or liable for the availability or accuracy of such Third-Party NFTs, or the content, NFTs, or NFTs available from such Third-Party NFTs. Links to such Third-Party NFTs are not an endorsement by Sisterhood Club of such Third-Party NFTs.


As a peer-to-peer web3 service, Sisterhood Club helps you explore NFTs created by third parties and interact with different blockchains. Sisterhood Club does not make any representations or warranties about this third-party content visible through our Service, including any content associated with NFTs displayed on the Service, and you bear responsibility for verifying the legitimacy, authenticity, and legality of NFTs that you purchase from third-party sellers. We also cannot guarantee that any NFTs visible on Sisterhood Club will always remain visible and/or available to be bought, sold, or transferred.


NFTs may be subject to terms directly between buyers and sellers with respect to the use of the NFT content and benefits associated with a given NFT (“Purchase Terms”). For example, when you click to get more details about any of the NFTs visible on Sisterhood Club, you may notice a third party link to the creator’s website. Such website may include Purchase Terms governing the use of the NFT that you will be required to comply with. Sisterhood Club is not a party to any such Purchase Terms, which are solely between the buyer and the seller. The buyer and seller are entirely responsible for communicating, promulgating, agreeing to, and enforcing Purchase Terms. You are solely responsible for reviewing such Purchase Terms.


Availability of Platform


Due to the nature of the Internet, Sisterhood Club cannot guarantee the continuous and uninterrupted availability and accessibility of the Platform. Sisterhood Club may restrict the availability of the Platform or certain areas or features thereof, if this is necessary in view of capacity limits, the security or integrity of our servers, or to carry out maintenance measures that ensure the proper or improved functioning of the Platform. Sisterhood Club may improve, enhance and modify the Platform and introduce new Platform features from time to time at its sole discretion.


Sisterhood Club may restrict all or part of the Platform in certain designated geographical regions and enforce geo-block and other geographically-based restrictions on certain NFTs, Members and Listings at any time.

Use of the Platform


Legal Capacity

You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into legally binding contracts to access and use the Platform and register an Account. By accessing or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you are 18 or older and have the legal capacity and authority to enter into this Agreement.


Use of Platform by Sisterhood Club


Sisterhood Club may make access to and use of the Platform, or certain areas or features of the Platform, subject to certain conditions or requirements, such as completing a verification process, meeting specific quality or eligibility criteria, meeting Ratings or Reviews thresholds, or other factors.


No Responsibility for Member Identity


User verification on the Internet is difficult and we do not assume any responsibility for the confirmation of any Member’s identity. Notwithstanding the above, for transparency and fraud prevention purposes, and as permitted by applicable laws, we may, but have no obligation to:

ask Members to provide a form of identification or other information or undertake additional checks designed to help verify the identities or backgrounds of Members and Artists;


  • screen Members against third party databases or other sources and request reports from service providers; and 


  • where we have insufficient information to identify a Member, obtain reports from public records of criminal convictions (if available).


Additional Terms and Conditions


Access to or use of certain areas and features of the Platform may be subject to separate policies, standards or guidelines, or may require that you accept additional terms and conditions. If there is a conflict between these Terms and terms and conditions applicable to a specific area or feature of the Platform, the later terms and conditions will take precedence with respect to your access to or use of that area or feature, unless specified otherwise.


Modification of these Terms


Modification to Terms

Sisterhood Club reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time in accordance with this clause. If we make changes to these Terms, we will post the revised Terms on the Platform and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms. We will also provide you with notice of the modifications by email at least thirty (30) days before the date they become effective. 


Your Right of Termination

If you disagree with the revised Terms, you may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect. We will inform you about your right to terminate the Agreement in the notification email. If you do not terminate your Agreement before the date the revised Terms become effective, your continued access to or use of the Platform will constitute acceptance of the revised Terms.


Account Registration


Member Registration of Account

You must register an account ("Account") to access and use certain features of the Platform, such as viewing Content or minting, creating or trading an NFT. If you are registering an Account for a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to legally bind that entity and grant us all permissions and licenses provided in these Terms.

Linking to Social Media Account


You can register an Account using an email address and creating a password, or through your account with certain third-party social networking NFTs, such as Facebook or Google ("SNS Account"). You have the ability to disable the connection between your Account and your SNS Account at any time, by accessing the "Settings" section of the Platform.

Member's Obligation to Provide Accurate Information


You must provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and keep your Account and public Account profile page information up-to-date at all times.

Multiple Member Accounts


You may not register more than one Account unless Sisterhood Club authorises you to do so. You may not assign or otherwise transfer your Account to another party.

Member Responsible for Confidentiality


You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your Account credentials and may not disclose your credentials to any third party. You must immediately notify Sisterhood Club if you know or have any reason to suspect that your credentials have been lost, stolen, misappropriated, or otherwise compromised or in case of any actual or suspected unauthorised use of your Account. You are liable for any and all activities conducted through your Account, unless such activities are not authorised by you and you are not otherwise negligent (such as failing to report the unauthorised use or loss of your credentials).

Authorisation of Other Members


Sisterhood Club may enable features that allow you to authorise other Members or certain third parties to take certain actions that affect your Account. For example, we may allow individuals associated with a company to purchase for other Members, or we may allow Artists to add other individuals to help manage their Listings. These features do not require that you share your credentials with any other person. No third party is authorised by Sisterhood Club to ask for your credentials, and you shall not request the credentials of another Member.

Content


Member Content Control

Sisterhood Club may, at its sole discretion, enable Users to:

create, upload, post, send, receive and store content, such as text, documents, photographs, audio, video, or other materials and information on or through the Platform ("Member Content"); and 


access and view Member Content and any content that Sisterhood Club itself makes available on or through the Platform, including proprietary Sisterhood Club content and any content licensed or authorised for use by or through Sisterhood Club from a third party ("Sisterhood Club Content" and together with Member Content, "Collective Content").

Sisterhood Club will take down works in response to Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) takedown notices and/or other intellectual property infringement claims and will terminate a user's access to the Service if the user is determined to be a repeat infringer. 


Members Use of Platform and Collective Content

We reserve the right to refuse hypertext links to, or addresses of, other web sites from Members' pages, and to remove links or web addresses without notice at our sole discretion. Further, we reserve the right to charge for hypertext links at any time.

Service Fees


Fees

Sisterhood Club may charge fees to Artists ("Artist Fees"), and/or Users ("User Fees”) (collectively, "Service Fees") in consideration for the use of the Platform. More information about when Service Fees apply and how they are calculated can be found on our Service Fees page.

Change of Service Fees


Any applicable Service Fees (including any applicable Taxes) will be displayed to a Member, prior to publishing or making or participating in a Listing. Sisterhood Club reserves the right to change the Service Fees at any time, and we will provide Members adequate notice of any fee changes before they become effective.


Payment Terms

You are responsible for paying any Service Fees that you owe to Sisterhood Club or Sisterhood Club Payments. The applicable Service Fees are due and payable and collected by Sisterhood Club Payments pursuant to the Payments Terms. Except as otherwise provided on the Platform, Service Fees are non-refundable.


Terms specific for Artists


Creating or Minting NFT’s

When creating or minting an NFT using Third-Party NFTs in connection with the Platform you must:

provide complete and accurate information about your NFT (such as listing description, price, and provenance); and


  • provide any other pertinent information requested by Sisterhood Club. 
  • You are responsible for keeping your NFT information up-to-date at all times.
  • You will need a blockchain address and a third-party wallet to access the Service. Your account on the service (“Account”) will be associated with your blockchain address; however, if you want to add some flair to your Sisterhood Club persona, you can add additional information, such as a profile picture, to your Account.
  • Your Account on the Platform will be associated with your linked blockchain address and display the NFTs for that blockchain address (and, if applicable, any content associated with such NFTs). By using your wallet in connection with the Service, you agree that you are using that wallet under the terms and conditions of the applicable provider of the wallet. Wallets are not operated by, maintained by, or affiliated with Sisterhood Club, and Sisterhood Club does not have custody or control over the contents of your wallet and has no ability to retrieve or transfer its contents. Sisterhood Club accepts no responsibility for, or liability to you, in connection with your use of a wallet and makes no representations or warranties regarding how the Service will operate with any specific wallet. You are solely responsible for keeping your wallet secure and you should never share your wallet credentials or seed phrase with anyone. If you discover an issue related to your wallet, please contact your wallet provider. Likewise, you are solely responsible for your Account and any associated wallet and we are not liable for any acts or omissions by you in connection with your Account or as a result of your Account or wallet being compromised. You agree to immediately notify us if you discover or otherwise suspect any security issues related to the Service or your Account (you can contact us here).


Ratings and Reviews


Public Reviews

Within a certain timeframe after completing a purchase, Users and Artists can leave a public review (“Review”) and submit a star rating (“Rating”) about Users or Artists. Any Ratings or Reviews reflect the opinion of individual Members and do not reflect the opinion of Sisterhood Club. Ratings and Reviews are not verified by Sisterhood Club for accuracy and may be incorrect or misleading.

Fair, True and Accurate Ratings


Ratings and Reviews by Members must be fair, truthful and factual and may not contain any offensive or defamatory language. Ratings and Reviews must comply with the Privacy Policy, Content Policy, Non-Discrimination Policy and Non-Coercion Policy.

No Manipulation of Ratings


Members are prohibited from manipulating the Ratings and Reviews system in any manner, such as instructing a third party to write a positive or negative Review about a Member.

Disputes between Members


Member Satisfaction

Sisterhood Club is committed to customer satisfaction, so if you have a problem or dispute, we will try to resolve your concerns.


No Mediation of Disputes between Members

The Platform acts only as a platform for Users to interact with each other and to participate in the Sisterhood School in viewing materials and courses on social media for business, conscious parenting, personal finances, meditations and fitness classes; and Artists to access Third-Party NFTs. Sisterhood Club is not, and does not become, a party to any contractual relationship between any Members in respect of any NFT, Service or payment, and does not mediate between Members in the event of any dispute arising between them. You acknowledge and agree that the Members will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that Sisterhood Club is not a party to such agreements, and that, with the exception of Payments’ obligations under the Payments Terms, Sisterhood Club (inclusive of all subsidiaries and Sisterhood Club Payments) disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements. 


Rounding off, Currency conversion

Rounding

Sisterhood Club may, in its sole discretion, round up or round down amounts that are payable from or to Users or Artists to the nearest whole functional base unit in which the currency is denominated (i.e. to the nearest dollar, euro or other supported currency); for example, Sisterhood Club will round up an amount of $101.50 to $102.00, and round down an amount of $101.49 to $101.00. For currencies that are denominated in large numbers, Sisterhood Club may determine the functional base unit in which those currencies are denominated to be 10, 100 or 1,000 of the currency; for example, Sisterhood Club may round up an amount of 1,045 up to 1,050 and 1,044 down to 1,040, or 837,500 up to 838,000 and 837,499 down to 837,000.


Currency Conversion

The Platform facilitates bookings between Users and Artists who may prefer to pay in a currency different from their destination currency, which may require currency conversions to accommodate these differing currency preferences. Although the Platform allows Members to view the price of Listings in a number of currencies, the currencies available for Members to make and receive payments may be limited, and may not include the default currency in any given geographic location. Details regarding currency conversion, including any associated fees, are detailed in the Payments Terms.


Taxes


Tax Obligations

As a user you are solely responsible for determining your obligations to report, collect, remit or include in your Listing Fees any applicable GST or other indirect sales taxes ("Taxes").


Collection of Taxes

Tax regulations may require us to collect appropriate Tax information from Artists, or to withhold Taxes from payouts to Artists, or both. If a Kitchen fails to provide us with documentation that we determine to be sufficient to alleviate our obligation (if any) to withhold Taxes from payouts to you, we reserve the right to halt all payouts, withhold such amounts as required by law, or to do both, until resolution.


Tax Authority

You understand that any appropriate governmental agency, department and/or authority ("Tax Authority") where your NFT is located may require Taxes to be collected from Users or Artists on Listing Fees, and to be remitted to the respective Tax Authority. The laws in jurisdictions may vary, but these Taxes may be required to be collected and remitted as a percentage of the Listing Fees set by Artists.


Authorise Collection of Tax

In certain jurisdictions, Sisterhood Club may decide in its sole discretion to facilitate collection and remittance of Taxes from or on behalf of Users or Artists, in accordance these Terms ("Collection and Remittance") if such jurisdiction asserts Sisterhood Club or Artists have a Tax collection and remittance obligation. In any jurisdiction in which we decide to facilitate direct Collection and Remittance, you hereby instruct and authorise Sisterhood Club (via Sisterhood Club Payments) to collect Taxes from Users on the Seller's behalf at the time Listing Fees are collected, and to remit such Taxes to the Tax Authority. 

The amount of Taxes, if any, collected and remitted by Sisterhood Club will be visible to and separately stated to both Users and Artists on their respective transaction documents. Where Sisterhood Club is facilitating Collection and Remittance, Artists are not permitted to collect any Taxes being collected by Sisterhood Club relating to their NFTs in that jurisdiction.


Remittance of Tax

You agree that any claim or cause of action relating to Sisterhood Club's facilitation of Collection and Remittance of Taxes shall not extend to any supplier or vendor that may be used by Sisterhood Club in connection with facilitation of Collection and Remittance, if any. Users and Artists agree that we may seek additional amounts from you in the event that the Taxes collected and/or remitted are insufficient to fully discharge your obligations to the Tax Authority, and agree that your sole remedy for Taxes collected is a refund of Taxes collected by Sisterhood Club from the applicable Tax Authority in accordance with applicable procedures set by that Tax Authority.


Cease Collection of Tax

Sisterhood Club reserves the right, with prior notice to Artists, to cease the Collection and Remittance in any jurisdiction for any reason at which point Artists and Users are once again solely responsible and liable for the collection and/or remittance of any and all Taxes that may apply to NFTs in that jurisdiction.

You acknowledge and agree that Sisterhood Club has no obligation to monitor the access to or use of the Platform by any Member or to review, disable access to, or edit any Member Content, but has the right to do so to, and to:

operate, secure and improve the Platform (including without limitation for fraud prevention, risk assessment, investigation and customer support purposes);

ensure Members’ compliance with these Terms; 

  • comply with applicable law or the order or requirement of a court, law enforcement or other administrative agency or governmental body; 
  • respond to Member Content that it determines is harmful or objectionable; or
  • as otherwise set forth in these Terms and Policies. 
  • Members agree to cooperate with and assist Sisterhood Club in good faith, and to provide Sisterhood Club with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by Sisterhood Club with respect to any investigation undertaken by Sisterhood Club or a representative of Sisterhood Club regarding the use, misuse or abuse of the Platform.


Inappropriate Behaviour

If you feel that any Member you interact with, whether online or in person, is acting or has acted inappropriately, including but not limited to anyone who:

  • engages in offensive, violent or sexually inappropriate behaviour;
  • you suspect of stealing from you; or
  • engages in any other disturbing conduct,
  • you should immediately report such person to the appropriate authorities and then to Sisterhood Club by contacting us with your police station and report number (if available); provided that your report will not obligate us to take any action beyond that required by law (if any) or cause us to incur any liability to you.


Term and Termination, Suspension and other Measures

Term of Agreement

This Agreement shall be effective for a 30-day term, at the end of which it will automatically and continuously renew for subsequent 30-day terms until such time when you or Sisterhood Club terminate the Agreement in accordance with this provision.


Termination by Sisterhood Club

Without limiting our rights specified below, Sisterhood Club may terminate this Agreement for convenience at any time by giving you thirty (30) days notice via email to your registered email address.

Sisterhood Club may immediately, without notice terminate this Agreement if:


  • you have materially breached your obligations under these Terms, the Payments Terms, or our Policies;
  • you have violated applicable laws, regulations or third-party rights; or
  • Sisterhood Club believes in good faith that such action is reasonably necessary to protect the personal safety or property of Sisterhood Club, its Members, or third parties (for example in the case of fraudulent behaviour of a Member).


Additional Actions

If you:


  • fail to comply with applicable law, or the order or request of a court, law enforcement or other administrative agency or governmental body; or
  • have breached these Terms, the Payments Terms, or our Policies, applicable laws, regulations, or third party rights; or
  • have provided inaccurate, fraudulent, outdated or incomplete information during the Account registration, Listing process or thereafter; or
  • and/or your Listings or NFTs at any time fail to meet any applicable quality or eligibility criteria; or
  • have repeatedly received poor Ratings or Reviews or Sisterhood Club otherwise becomes aware of or has received complaints about your performance or conduct; or
  • have repeatedly failed to respond to purchase requests without a valid reason; or

  • Sisterhood Club may take any of the following measures:
  • refuse to display, delete or delay any Listings, NFTs, Ratings, Reviews, or other Member Content;
  • cancel any pending or confirmed purchases;
  • limit your access to or use of the Platform;

  • you will not be entitled to any compensation for pending or confirmed Purchases that were cancelled.
  • When this Agreement has been terminated, you are not entitled to a restoration of your Account or any of your Member Content. If your access to or use of the Platform has been limited or your Account has been suspended or this Agreement has been terminated by us, you may not register a new Account or access and use the Platform through an Account of another Member.
  • If you or we terminate this Agreement, the clauses of these Terms that reasonably should survive termination of the Agreement will remain in effect.


Disclaimers

Assumption of Risk

If you choose to use the Platform or Collective Content, you do so voluntarily and at your sole risk. The Platform and Collective Content is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, either express or implied.


Adequate Opportunity to Investigate

You agree that you have had whatever opportunity you deem necessary to investigate the NFTs, laws, rules, or regulations that may be applicable to your Listings, Fund Raising Appeals and/or NFTs and Services you are receiving and that you are not relying upon any statement of law or fact made by Sisterhood Club relating to a Listing.


Disclaimer

If we choose to conduct identity verification or background checks on any Member, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim warranties of any kind, either express or implied, that such checks will identify prior misconduct by a Member or guarantee that a Member will not engage in misconduct in the future.


Release

You agree to release and hold harmless Sisterhood Club and Sisterhood Club Payments from all liabilities and claims that arise in any way from any injury, death, loss or harm that occurs to you arising from the Listing or purchase of an NFT or Service or in any way related to a NFT.

The foregoing disclaimers apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. You may have other statutory rights. However, the duration of statutorily required warranties, if any, shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.


Liability

Risk

You acknowledge and agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the entire risk arising out of your access to and use of the Platform and Collective Content, your publishing of any Listing, or creation or purchase of a NFT or Service via the Platform, or any other interaction you have with other Members whether in person or online remains with you. 

You accept and acknowledge:

  • The value of an NFTs is subjective. Prices of NFTs are subject to volatility and fluctuations in the price of cryptocurrency can also materially and adversely affect NFT prices. You acknowledge that you fully understand this subjectivity and volatility and that you may lose money.
  • A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems could negatively impact the development of those ecosystems and related applications, and could therefore also negatively impact the potential utility of NFTs.
  • The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, non-fungible tokens, cryptocurrency, and other crypto-based items is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Service and the utility of NFTs.
  • You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your transactions. Sisterhood Club is not responsible for determining the taxes that apply to your NFTs.
  • There are risks associated with purchasing items associated with content created by third parties through peer-to-peer transactions, including but not limited to, the risk of purchasing counterfeit items, mislabeled items, items that are vulnerable to metadata decay, items on smart contracts with bugs, and items that may become untransferable. You represent and warrant that you have done sufficient research before making any decisions to sell, obtain, transfer, or otherwise interact with any NFTs or accounts/collections.
  • We do not control the public blockchains that you are interacting with and we do not control certain smart contracts and protocols that may be integral to your ability to complete transactions on these public blockchains. Additionally, blockchain transactions are irreversible and Sisterhood Club has no ability to reverse any transactions on the blockchain.
  • There are risks associated with using Internet and blockchain based products, including, but not limited to, the risk associated with hardware, software, and Internet connections, the risk of malicious software introduction, and the risk that third parties may obtain unauthorized access to your third-party wallet or Account. You accept and acknowledge that Sisterhood Club will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using the Service or any Blockchain network, however caused.
  • The Service relies on third-party platforms and/or vendors. If we are unable to maintain a good relationship with such platform providers and/or vendors; if the terms and conditions or pricing of such platform providers and/or vendors change; if we violate or cannot comply with the terms and conditions of such platforms and/or vendors; or if any of such platforms and/or vendors loses market share or falls out of favor or is unavailable for a prolonged period of time, access to and use of the Service will suffer.
  • Sisterhood Club reserves the right to hide collections, contracts, and items affected by any of these issues or by other issues. Items you purchase may become inaccessible on Sisterhood Club. Under no circumstances shall the inability to view items on Sisterhood Club or an inability to use the Service in conjunction with the purchase, sale, or transfer of items available on any blockchains serve as grounds for a claim against Sisterhood Club.
  • Sisterhood Club does not provide general or personal financial product advice under any circumstances and the Collective Content which may be made available for Members should not be considered general or personal financial product advice. Members should make their own enquiries and seek professional financial advice when making financial and investment decisions where their personal circumstances may be considered.


No Liability by Sisterhood Club

Neither Sisterhood Club or Sisterhood Club Payments nor any other party involved in creating, producing, or delivering the Platform or Collective Content will be liable for any incidental, special, exemplary or consequential damages, including lost profits, loss of data or loss of goodwill, service interruption, computer damage or system failure or the cost of substitute NFTs or NFTs, or for any damages for personal or bodily injury or emotional distress arising out of or in connection with:

these Terms and Policies;

from any communications, interactions or meetings with other Members or other persons with whom you communicate, interact or meet with as a result of your use of the Platform;

from your publishing a Listing or purchasing a NFT or Service, including the provision or use of a Listing’s NFTs, 

whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), NFT liability or any other legal theory, and whether or not Sisterhood Club or the Sisterhood Club Payments has been informed of the possibility of such damage, even if a limited remedy set forth herein is found to have failed of its essential purpose. 


Limitation Of Liability

Except for our obligations to pay amounts to applicable Artists pursuant to these Terms, in no event will Sisterhood Club’s or Sisterhood Club Payment's aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with these Terms and your use of the Platform including, but not limited to, from your publishing any Listings or Fund Raising Appeals, or purchasing any NFT or Service via the Platform, or from the use of or inability to use the Platform or Collective Content and in connection with any NFT, Fund Raising Appeal or Service, or interactions with any other Members, exceed the amounts you have paid or owe for purchases or donations via the Platform as a Buyer in the twelve (12) month period prior to the event giving rise to the liability, or if you are a Seller, the amounts paid by Sisterhood Club to you in the twelve (12) month period prior to the event giving rise to the liability, or one hundred Australian dollars (AUD$100), if no such payments have been made for a Member, as applicable. 

The limitations of damages set forth above are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between Sisterhood Club and you. 


Third Party Liability

Sisterhood Club and Sisterhood Club Payments will not be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss arising from or relating in any way to your use of the Platform, including loss of business profits.


Release and Indemnity

You agree to release, indemnify, and hold Sisterhood Club and Sisterhood Club Payments and their affiliates, subsidiaries, and Related Body Corporates (as defined in the Corporations Act 2001) and their officers, directors, employees and agents, harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising out of or in any way connected with:

your breach of these Terms or our Policies or Standards; 


  • your improper use of the Platform or any NFTs;

  • creation or purchase of any NFT, including without limitation any injuries, losses or damages (whether compensatory, direct, incidental, consequential or otherwise) of any kind arising in connection with or as a result of such interaction, stay, participation or use;
  • the Collection and Remittance of Taxes; or
  • your breach of any laws, regulations or third party rights.
