If you are an individual accessing or using any of the Services on behalf of, or for the benefit of, any corporation, partnership, or other entity with which you are associated (an “Organization”), then you are agreeing to the terms and conditions set forth in these Terms on behalf of yourself and such Organization. References to “you” and “your” in these Terms will refer to both the individuals using the Services and to any such Organization.
STUFF.IO reserves the right to change or modify any of the terms and conditions contained in these Terms (or any policy or guideline of STUFF.IO) at any time and in its sole discretion. If STUFF.IO makes any changes to these Terms, STUFF.IO will provide notice of such changes by revising the “Last Updated” date above and, in some cases, STUFF.IO may provide additional notice (such as by sending an email or other notification or by posting a notice on the Services). Any changes or modifications will be effective 7 days after STUFF.IO provides notice that these Terms have been modified (the “Notice Period”). Your continued use of any of the Services following the Notice Period will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications. You are advised to review these Terms whenever you access any of the Services and at least every 30 days to make sure that you understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Services.

2. LOCATION AND YOUR USE
STUFF.IO operates the Services from the United States. STUFF.IO makes no representation or warranty that all of the features of the Services will be available to you if you reside outside of the United States. By accessing and using the Services, you assent to the processing, transfer and storage of information about you in and to the United States and other countries, where you may not have the same rights and protections as you do under local law.
3. SERVICES

Your Limited Rights.
Subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms, STUFF.IO grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable, revocable, and limited license to access and use the Services, provided that some of the Services are subject to additional terms and conditions that you must agree to prior to accessing and using such Services.
You acknowledge and agree that STUFF.IO may monitor, collect, use, and store anonymous and aggregate statistics regarding use of the Services, and/or any individuals/entities that interact with the Services (collectively, “STUFF.IO Analytic Data”).
4. STUFF.IO NFTs
A “STUFF.IO NFT” means an NFT made available through the Services, and that may be associated with certain (a) Licensed Content (as defined below) made available by one or more of our licensors; or (b) public domain content. An “NFT” is a non-fungible token implemented on blockchain using smart contracts and referencing specified content. STUFF.IO NFTs may utilize additional functionality, such as encryption of the referenced content, and smart contracts may implement contractual terms agreed between you and STUFF.IO when you buy the STUFF.IO NFT. STUFF.IO NFTs are separate and distinct from the Licensed Content or public domain content with which they may be linked or associated. An NFT is not a medium of exchange and is not convertible virtual currency. “Licensed Content” means content, materials, art, design, and drawings (in any form or media, including videos or photographs) which is linked or associated with a STUFF.IO NFT by STUFF.IO for use on the Services in connection with the STUFF.IO NFT, and may include third party intellectual property controlled by STUFF.IO through agreements with our licensors.
In order to be completed, all proposed STUFF.IO NFT transactions must be confirmed and recorded in a blockchain. The blockchain is a decentralized, peer-to-peer network supported by independent third parties, which we do not own, control, or operate. Since we have no control over the blockchain, we cannot and do not ensure that any transaction details that you submit via our Services will be confirmed and processed. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that the transaction details you submit may not be completed, or may be substantially delayed, by the blockchain. You accept and acknowledge that we are not responsible for any errors or omissions that you make in connection with any blockchain transaction initiated via the Services. We strongly encourage you to review your transaction details carefully before attempting to transfer any STUFF.IO NFT. It is your responsibility to determine what, if any, taxes apply to the transactions that you have submitted transaction details for via the Services, and it is your responsibility to report and remit the correct tax to the appropriate tax authority. You agree that we are not responsible for determining whether taxes apply to your blockchain-based transactions or for collecting, reporting, withholding, or remitting any taxes arising from any transactions initiated through the Services.
5. WALLETS, CREDENTIALS
You must either create a wallet on the Services (a “STUFF.IO Wallet”) or associate a third party wallet with your Services account (“Third Party Wallet”) in order to use certain functionality of the Services. You are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your STUFF.IO Wallet and Third Party Wallet (any such wallet, a “Wallet”) credentials (including associated private keys) and any backup retrieval credentials associated with your Wallet (collectively, “Wallet Credentials”). You must keep your Wallet Credentials secure. Failure to do so may result in the loss of control of NFTs (including STUFF.IO NFTs) associated with the Wallet. STUFF.IO cannot assist with Wallet Credential retrieval. We cannot generate new Credentials for your Wallet. If you have not safely stored a backup of Wallet Credentials, you accept and acknowledge that any NFTs (including STUFF.IO NFTs) you have associated with such a Wallet address will become inaccessible if you do not have your Wallet Credentials.
Your Third Party Wallet may be associated with any STUFF.IO NFTs you purchase through the Services. By using a Third Party Wallet in connection with the Services, you agree that you are using that Third Party Wallet under the terms and conditions of the applicable third party provider of the Third Party Wallet. Third Party Wallet are not operated by, maintained by, or affiliated with STUFF.IO, and STUFF.IO does not have custody or control over the contents of your Third Party Wallet and has no ability to retrieve or transfer its contents. STUFF.IO accepts no responsibility for, or liability to you, in connection with your use of a Third Party Wallet and makes no representations or warranties regarding how the Services will operate with any specific Third Party Wallet. You are solely responsible for keeping your Third Party Wallet secure. If you discover an issue related to your Third Party Wallet, please contact your Third Party Wallet provider.
