Last Revised on 29 November 2024
Welcome to Superseed, provided by SeedTech Limited, a British Virgin Islands limited company, and its affiliates (collectively, “Superseed”, “Company”, “Foundation”, "we", "us", or "our"). Superseed is a decentralized Layer 2 (L2) blockchain solution built on top of the OP Stack, leveraging the robust foundation of Optimism and utilizing Conduit Rollups to facilitate faster, more cost-efficient transactions. Superseed incorporates smart contracts that facilitate the bridging of digital assets between Ethereum and Superseed (“Bridge Contracts”).
These Terms of Services (these “Terms”) are between you and Superseed concerning your access to and use of: (a) the website, https://www.superseed.xyz/ (including its subdomains, the “Superseed Site”); (b) any other websites through which these Terms are linked (together with the Superseed Site, the “Website”); and (c) Superseed’s services, including but not limited to any applications, products, services, content, tools, software, documentation, features, and functionality offered by Foundation on or through the Website or third-party sites and services (collectively, the "Services"), in each case as operated by or on behalf of the Foundation.
These Terms hereby incorporate by this reference any additional terms and conditions posted by Company through the Website or otherwise made available to you by Company. You are responsible for checking our Website periodically in order to review the current version of these Terms and to familiarize yourself with any changes to them.
Read these Terms carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights, including, among other things:
- In Section 8, that you and Company will arbitrate certain claims against Company;
- In Section 1(d) and 2(b), that you are prohibited from taking certain actions in connection with your use of the Website and the Services (including circumvention of any restrictions such as “geoblocking”);
- In Section 7, that Company disclaims and that you assume certain risks in connection with your use of the Website and the Services, and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, your right to recover from Company is limited, with respect to certain damages.
By accessing the Website and/or using the Services, you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not understand or agree to these Terms, you may not use the Website or the Services.
1. Access to the Website and Use of the Services
By accessing the Website or using the Services or the Bridge Contracts, you affirm, represent, warrant, and covenant that:
- You are over 18 years old or the age of majority required by your state of residence, whichever is older, and you have the capacity to be bound by these Terms.
- You are not a person or an Organization who resides in, is a citizen of, is located in, is incorporated in, or has a registered office in the United States of America.
- You are not a resident, national, or agent of the Crimea region, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, or any other country to which the United States, the United Kingdom, the Cayman Islands, or the European Union embargoes goods or imposes similar sanctions.
- You are not identified as a Specially Designated National or placed on any sanctions list by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, the U.S. Commerce Department, or the U.S. Department of State.

Account Credentials. To use the Services or the Bridge Contracts, you must connect a compatible non-custodial wallet software. Your relationship with that non-custodial wallet provider is governed by the applicable terms of service of that provider and is not covered by these Terms.
Losing control of your private key(s) will permanently and irreversibly deny you access to blockchain resources and your blockchain wallet, including digital assets you transfer into Superseed or the Bridge Contracts. We do not have custody or control over the contents of your wallet and have no ability to retrieve or transfer its contents. We are not liable for any issues or damages related to your use of a wallet, and we make no guarantees about how the Services or Superseed will function with any specific wallet. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to restrict certain wallet addresses from integrating with the Services.
KYC Process. To use the Services or the Bridge Contracts, you may also be required to provide all personal information as required by Foundation or its agents, as part of its know-your-customer (“KYC”) process. Foundation may choose to nominate third-party service providers to collect and verify KYC information on its behalf, who may also require you to accept their terms and conditions or privacy policy agreements. Collected information may include a passport, driver’s license, utility bill, photograph of you, government identification cards, or sworn statements, and we or our nominee may keep a copy of such information.
Jurisdictional Limitations. You further acknowledge that the information, products, and services provided in connection with the Website and the Services are not provided to, and may not be used by, any person or entity in any jurisdiction where the provision or use thereof would be contrary to applicable laws, rules, or regulations of any governmental authority or where the Company is not authorized to provide such information or services.
Some transactions involving cryptographic assets on the Services, or other services linked to the Services, may implicate the securities or other laws of various jurisdictions. Without limiting the other terms of these Terms, we may limit, at our sole discretion, the availability of the Website to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction (such restriction, a “geoblock”) and/or to prohibit your access to and use of the Website or the Services, at any time. You hereby agree that you will not attempt to circumvent or otherwise defeat or bypass any “geoblocks,” and that any attempt to do so is a violation of these Terms. You hereby acknowledge that any “geoblock,” other restriction, or lack thereof, should not be taken as a statement by us or anyone else regarding the legality of any interaction with the Services and that you bear independent responsibility to research, understand, and comply with the laws of your jurisdiction and activity with regard to any activity you propose to take.
2. Acceptable Use
