This Policy constitutes a legally binding agreement between you and xAI (hereinafter referred to as “we” or the “Company”). By accessing or using our Services, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Policy. If you do not agree, please immediately discontinue use of the Services.

Effective Date: January 16, 2025 | Last Updated: March 20, 2025

1. Service Overview and Acceptance of Terms

X-Grok is a decentralized platform that leverages artificial intelligence technology to provide blockchain interaction services, including but not limited to querying on-chain data, executing smart contracts, managing digital assets (XGROK tokens and others), and offering market analysis recommendations. The Services operate on the Solana blockchain and are supported by xAI’s technology. This Policy applies to all forms of the Services, including the website, mobile application, API interfaces, and Services accessed through third-party platforms (e.g., wallets or exchanges).

By using the Services, you accept this Policy and related documents, including but not limited to the Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and community guidelines (if applicable). We reserve the right to update this Policy at any time, with updated versions posted on the official website and effective 7 days after publication. Your continued use of the Services constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

2. User Eligibility and Responsibilities

To ensure the legality and security of the Services, we have established the following eligibility requirements and outlined your related responsibilities:

  • Age Restriction: You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction) and possess full legal capacity. If you use the Services on behalf of an entity (e.g., a company), you must demonstrate lawful authorization.
  • Compliance: You agree to comply with all applicable laws, including but not limited to blockchain, cryptocurrency, data protection, and anti-money laundering (AML) regulations in your country/region. X-Grok does not provide services to countries/regions under international sanctions (e.g., North Korea, Iran) or to individuals/entities on sanction lists.
  • Account Security: You are responsible for safeguarding your Solana wallet private keys, seed phrases, and related credentials. X-Grok does not store or control your private keys, and we are not liable for asset losses due to your own actions (e.g., leaking private keys).
  • Accurate Information: If you voluntarily provide information (e.g., email, identity verification data), it must be true, accurate, and complete. You bear responsibility for any service interruptions or legal consequences arising from false information.
  • Prohibited Conduct: You may not use the Services for illegal activities, including but not limited to money laundering, terrorism financing, fraud, malicious attacks (e.g., DDoS), unauthorized data mining, or any actions violating this Policy.

If you violate these requirements, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Services and may report the matter to relevant law enforcement authorities.

3. Rules for Service Use

X-Grok offers a variety of features, but to maintain fairness and security within the ecosystem, you must adhere to the following usage rules:

  • On-Chain Operations: Smart contracts, transactions, or other on-chain activities executed through X-Grok require payment of Solana network Gas fees (priced in SOL). You are responsible for ensuring sufficient SOL in your wallet and understanding that on-chain operations are irreversible (once confirmed, they cannot be canceled or modified).
  • AI Recommendations: Market analyses, investment advice, or other predictions provided by X-Grok are based on AI algorithms and historical data, offered for reference only, and do not constitute financial, legal, or investment advice. You bear the risks of decisions made based on these recommendations.
  • Intellectual Property: X-Grok’s website content, code, AI models, and brand identifiers (e.g., “X-Grok,” “XGROK”) are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may use the Services for personal, non-commercial purposes but may not copy, modify, distribute, or use them for competing products.
  • Service Limitations: We may suspend Services due to technical maintenance, legal requirements, or force majeure (e.g., network failures) without prior notice. You may not exploit service vulnerabilities (e.g., bugs) for profit and should report any discovered vulnerabilities to privacy@x-grok.net.
  • Community Participation: If you participate in X-Grok’s DAO governance, airdrops, or developer activities, you must follow applicable rules (e.g., voting eligibility, code submission standards) and refrain from malicious manipulation or disruption of the ecosystem.

Violations of these rules may result in account restrictions, token forfeiture, or other legal consequences, depending on the severity of the breach.

4. XGROK Token and Economic Model

XGROK is the native token of the X-Grok ecosystem, used for paying service fees, participating in governance, and incentivizing the community. Below are the legal terms related to the token:

  • Token Nature: XGROK is a utility token, not representing equity, debt, or any securities interest. Purchasing or holding XGROK does not grant you ownership, profit-sharing, or decision-making rights in xAI or X-Grok (except in DAO governance).
  • Presale Terms: Users participating in presales (seed round, private round, public round) must agree to lockup arrangements (18 months, 12 months, 6 months phased unlocking) and understand that presale prices (0.02-0.04 USDT) do not guarantee future value. Presale funds are allocated to R&D and ecosystem development, as detailed in the whitepaper.
  • Market Risk: XGROK’s price is influenced by market supply and demand, Solana ecosystem developments, and external factors, potentially experiencing significant volatility or dropping to zero. You must assess risks independently, as xAI does not promise returns or buyback obligations.
  • Compliance Disclosure: The issuance and trading of XGROK may be subject to regulations in your jurisdiction (e.g., U.S. SEC securities laws). You are responsible for ensuring the legality of your participation, and xAI is not liable for your tax or compliance obligations.
  • Burn Mechanism: A portion of tokens will be repurchased and burned to reduce circulating supply, as determined by the DAO. Burns are not considered compensation promises to holders.

Using XGROK signifies your understanding and acceptance of the inherent risks of cryptocurrencies and your willingness to bear the associated consequences.

5. Risk Disclosure

X-Grok Services involve cutting-edge technology and carry certain risks. Below is a detailed explanation of the primary risks you must understand and accept:

  • Technical Risks: Smart contracts may contain vulnerabilities (despite audits), AI algorithms may produce errors (e.g., prediction biases), and the Solana network may experience interruptions due to congestion or failures. We are not liable for resulting losses.
  • Market Risks: The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile, and the value of XGROK or other assets may plummet due to external events (e.g., regulatory changes, hacks).
  • Legal Risks: The legal status of blockchain and cryptocurrencies varies by region and may face bans, taxes, or other restrictions. You must comply with local laws independently.
  • Cybersecurity Risks: Despite advanced protective measures, we cannot fully eliminate risks such as hacking, phishing sites, or other cyber threats. xAI is not responsible for losses due to compromised user devices or third-party services.
  • Force Majeure: Uncontrollable events such as natural disasters, wars, or sudden policy changes may impact Services, with associated risks borne by users.

We recommend thoroughly assessing your risk tolerance before using the Services and consulting professional financial or legal advisors if necessary.

6. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

To clarify the scope of legal liability for both parties, we make the following statements:

  • “As-Is” Provision: X-Grok Services are provided “as is” and “as available,” without any express or implied warranties, including but not limited to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
  • Limitation of Liability: To the maximum extent permitted by law, xAI and its affiliates are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages (e.g., loss of profits, data loss) arising from Service use. Our total liability will not exceed the service fees you paid in the past 12 months (if any).
  • Third-Party Services: X-Grok may link to or rely on third parties (e.g., Solana network, wallet providers). We are not responsible for the performance, availability, or actions of third-party services.
  • Uncontrollable Factors: xAI is not liable for losses due to force majeure or user actions (e.g., private key leaks).

This disclaimer aims to reasonably allocate risks and does not exclude liability for intentional misconduct or gross negligence on our part.

7. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law

The legal relationship under this Policy and Services is governed by the following terms:

  • Governing Law: This Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA (without regard to conflict of law principles), as it is xAI’s place of registration and Delaware offers a blockchain-friendly legal environment.
  • Arbitration: Any disputes arising from this Policy or Services should first be resolved through amicable negotiation. If unresolved within 30 days, disputes will be submitted to the American Arbitration Association (AAA) for binding arbitration in Delaware. Arbitration will be conducted in English, with costs split equally unless the arbitrator rules otherwise.
  • Class Action Waiver: You agree to waive the right to sue xAI in a class action, with all disputes resolved through individual arbitration.
  • Statute of Limitations: Any claims or lawsuits must be filed within 1 year of the dispute’s occurrence, or they will be deemed waived.

If your local laws require a different dispute resolution mechanism, we will strive to comply, but these terms take precedence unless legally mandated otherwise.

8. Termination and Suspension of Services

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate Services under the following circumstances:

  • Violations: If you breach this Policy (e.g., illegal activities, malicious attacks), we may immediately suspend your access without prior notice.
  • Legal Requirements: If regulatory authorities mandate suspension of Services or specific features, we will comply and notify users.
  • Technical Needs: Services may be temporarily suspended for maintenance, upgrades, or security issues, with advance notice provided where possible.
  • User Request: You may request termination of Services via x-grok@x-grok.net, and we will delete your off-chain data (excluding on-chain data).

Service termination does not affect your ownership of held XGROK tokens but may restrict their functionality within the X-Grok ecosystem.

9. Miscellaneous

The following supplementary legal terms ensure the completeness of this Policy:

  • Severability: If any provision of this Policy is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
  • Non-Transferability: You may not transfer your rights or obligations under this Policy to a third party without our written consent.
  • Notification Method: Notices posted on the official website, sent via email, or shared through community channels are deemed effectively delivered.
  • Language Version: This Policy’s English version is the primary one, with translations in other languages provided for reference only. In case of conflict, the English version prevails.

Conclusion: X-Grok is committed to providing you with a secure and lawful on-chain experience. This Legal Policy aims to clarify the rights and obligations of both parties, fostering a fair and transparent ecosystem together.
