Sugar Coated Lies

Last update: February 13, 2023

Please read these Terms of Service carefully. You may not use the Site (as defined below) unless you agree to these Terms of Service. These Terms of Service also include the following terms and policies, each of which is incorporated by this reference (collectively, the “Agreement”):

Privacy Policy;
Collector Terms; and
any other posted and referenced guidelines, rules, policies, terms, or conditions applicable to services that may be available at the Site.

This Agreement is between you and Strata, K.K. (“Strata”) concerning your use of the website located at https://sugar.strata.gallery (including any successor sites and any other website, mobile app, marketplace or software that we operate or make available for the sale of NFTs) and any content, products or services that we make available there (collectively, the “Site”).

The Site may allow users to buy, exchange, or otherwise acquire non-fungible tokens on distributed digital ledgers or blockchains (“NFTs”) that contain or correspond to digital artworks (“Artworks”) created by Strata or other artists (each, an “Artist”). For ease of reference, we refer to NFTs originally acquired through the Site as “Site NFTs” and a Site NFT together with the license rights in the corresponding Artwork as a “Digital Item.”

When we say, “we,” “us” or “our,” we mean Strata and its affiliates and its and their employees, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives, licensors (including Artists), suppliers and service providers.

1.Acceptance of Terms.

Strata makes the Site available subject to this Agreement. Strata may update or make changes to this Agreement from time to time in its sole discretion, which changes it may provide to you by any reasonable means, including by posting the revised version of this Agreement on the Site. You can determine when this Agreement (and other terms and policies posted on the Site) was last revised by referring to the “Last Updated” legend at the top of this Agreement.

2.Site Changes.

Certain features of the Site are available at no charge, while others may require payment. Strata may, at any time and from time to time, temporarily or permanently, in whole or in part: modify or discontinue the Site, with or without notice; charge fees in connection with the use of the Site; modify or waive any fees charged in connection with the Site; or offer opportunities to some or all users of the Site. You agree that we won’t be responsible or liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Site or any content, feature or product offered through the Site, in each case in whole or in part. Your continued use of the Site after such changes will indicate your acceptance of such changes.

3.Registration; Usernames and Passwords.

You may need to provide your email address, register, create an account, or connect your blockchain wallet, e.g., MetaMask (your “Wallet”) to use all or part of the Site or to make purchases. You represent, warrant and covenant to us that all information you submit to the Site is complete and accurate. We may reject, or require you to change, any username, password or other information that you provide to us in registering or updating your registration. Your username and password are for your personal use only and should be kept confidential. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your username and password. You are also responsible for any use or misuse of your username or password, and you must promptly notify Strata of any unauthorized use of your username, password, or Site account. You shall not permit others to use your username and password.

4.Buying NFTs.

Connecting Your Wallet. Before you can buy, exchange, or otherwise acquire any Site NFT, you have to connect to the Site using your Wallet. Wallets like MetaMask are provided by unaffiliated third parties, and your use of such Wallets is governed by terms provided by the applicable third party (in the case of MetaMask, its Terms of Use). We’ll deliver Site NFTs that you buy through the Site directly to your Wallet. PLEASE TAKE THE UTMOST CARE TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE YOUR WALLET’S CREDENTIALS—WE CANNOT RECOVER SITE NFTS IF YOU LOSE ACCESS TO YOUR WALLET.
Pricing & Payment. We will provide pricing and payment terms on the Site at or near the point of sale. All sales are final, and your payment obligations are binding as soon as you authorize any purchase with your Wallet. Except as required by law, we do not and will not provide refunds. We accept payment in cryptocurrency only.
Not an Investment in a Business. You represent, warrant and covenant to us that your purchase of Site NFTs is and will remain solely for your personal use and enjoyment. You understand that buying a Site NFT is akin to buying a physical artwork, and is not an investment in us or any other business, and you represent, warrant and covenant to us that you have no expectation of profit based on any of our activities or those of any other business. You shall not promote or market any Site NFT as an investment in us or any other business, or otherwise state or suggest that potential buyers of Site NFTs may expect to profit from their purchase or sale of Site NFTs.
Site NFTs Acquired from Others. You agree to be bound by the Collector Terms with respect to any Site NFTs you may acquire from third parties. You also agree that, if the third party from whom you purchased the Site NFT fails to pay any amounts due to us in connection with the transfer to you, we may refuse to provide you with access to the Site until all such amounts have been paid.

5.Rules of Conduct.

While using the Site, you will comply with all applicable laws and regulations and your contractual obligations to third parties. In addition, we expect users of the Site to respect the rights and dignity of others. Your use of the Site is conditioned on your compliance with the following rules of conduct, and your failure to comply with such rules may result in suspension or termination of your access to the Site.

Strata may revoke these exceptions either generally or in specific cases.
Attempt to increase or otherwise manipulate the price of a Digital Item, for example, by bidding on Site NFTs that you own, buying or selling Site NFTs that you own (e.g., from one Wallet to another Wallet that you control), or making offers with no bona fide intent to purchase.
Engage in activity that artificially increases view counts, likes or other metrics.
Use the Site to engage in any financial activity that requires registration or licensing.

You represent and warrant to us that neither you nor your financial institutions, nor any party that owns or controls you or your financial institutions, are: (a) subject to sanctions or designated on any list of prohibited or restricted parties, including lists maintained by the Japanese Government, the U.S. Government, the European Union or its member states, the U.N. Security Council, or any other applicable government authority; or (b) located in any country to which Japan or the United States has embargoed goods or against which Japan or the United States has applied sanctions.

You are responsible for obtaining and maintaining all telecommunications, broadband, computer hardware, equipment, software and services needed to access and use the Site, and paying all related charges. Some features of the Site may be facilitated through third-party APIs. We have no control over and bear no responsibility for third-party APIs, and the Site may be impacted by third-party API issues, including outages of or changes to third-party APIs.

8.Feedback.

Unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing, if you provide us with any ideas, proposals, suggestions or materials, whether through the Site, through our official social media channels, by email or otherwise, and whether related to the Site or otherwise (collectively, “Feedback”), you acknowledge and agree that: (a) your provision of any Feedback is gratuitous, unsolicited and without restriction and does not place us under any fiduciary or other obligation; (b) any Feedback is not confidential, and we have no confidentiality obligations with respect to such Feedback; and (c) to the extent permitted under applicable law, any Feedback will become Strata’s sole property. Without limiting the foregoing, you grant to Strata a worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable and fully sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license, without additional consideration to you or any third party, to reproduce, distribute, perform and display (publicly or otherwise), adapt, modify and otherwise use and exploit such Feedback, in any format or media now known or hereafter developed, and you represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights to grant this license. Strata may use Feedback for any purpose whatsoever without attribution or compensation to you or any other person. You are and remain responsible for the content of any Feedback.

9.Our Content.

Our trade names, trademarks, service marks, trade dress and other indicia of origin include STRATA, DENDEKADEN, and any associated logos (collectively, “Our Trademarks”). All trademarks and service marks on the Site other than Our Trademarks are the property of their respective owners. You may not use Our Trademarks, whether registered or unregistered, on or in connection with any product or service in any manner that is likely to cause confusion. The information and materials made available through the Site are and shall remain the property of us and our licensors (including Artists) and suppliers, and are protected by copyright, trademark, patent, or other proprietary rights and laws (such information and materials, including Our Trademarks, collectively “Our Content”). Subject to and conditioned on your compliance with this Agreement, and solely for so long as we permit you to access and use the Site, you may view one copy of any of Our Content on any single computer or device solely for your personal, non-commercial use, provided that you keep intact all copyright and other proprietary notices. Except as we expressly authorize in advance in writing, you shall not reproduce, modify, rent, lease, loan, sell, distribute, or create derivative works based upon (whether in whole or in part), all or any part of the Site or any materials made available through the Site (including Artworks). Nothing contained on the Site grants or should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any license or right to use any of Our Content without our express prior written consent.

10.Artwork Storage.

We may store Artworks using our own or third-party platforms, such as the Interplanetary File System (“IPFS”). WE CAN’T AND DON’T GUARANTEE THAT ANY ARTWORK WILL REMAIN AVAILABLE ON IPFS OR ANY OTHER PLATFORM, AND WE WILL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY, NOR WILL COLLECTORS OR PURCHASERS HAVE ANY REMEDY, IF ANY ARTWORKS BECOME UNAVAILABLE. We recommend that you download the associated Artwork (provided that you have the right to do so) in case it becomes unavailable on the Site or through the applicable third-party platform. We also recommend that you use an IPFS pinning service to keep a copy of the Artworks corresponding to your Site NFTs to ensure their continued hosting on the IPFS servers.

11.Third-Party Payment Providers.

We may use third-party service providers to pay you or to enable you to pay us (such services, “Payment Services”). By submitting your account information for use in connection with Payment Services, you agree that: (a) Strata may store your information, and process your information with any such Payment Services; and (b) we are not responsible or liable for any failures of any such Payment Services to protect such information adequately. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of such Payment Services, in addition to this Agreement. You acknowledge that Strata may change Payment Services and move your information to other third-party service providers from time to time. There may be fees associated with certain Payment Services, and you agree that you (and not we) will be responsible and liable for all such fees, including fees imposed on your transactions. You acknowledge and agree that we are not, and won’t be, responsible or liable for any Payment Service’s services, site, or acts or omissions.

12.Links.

The Site may provide links to other websites and online resources. Because we have no control over such sites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for the availability of such external sites or resources, and we neither endorse nor are responsible or liable for any content, advertising, products or other materials on or available through such sites or resources. Other sites and services may provide links to the Site with or without our authorization. We don’t endorse such sites or services, and are not and will not be responsible or liable for any links from those sites or services to the Site, any content, advertising, products or other materials available on or through such other sites or services, or any loss or damages incurred in connection therewith.

YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THIRD-PARTY SITES, SERVICES, AND RESOURCES, INCLUDING YOUR USE OF ANY CONTENT, INFORMATION, DATA, ADVERTISING, PRODUCTS, OR OTHER MATERIALS ON OR AVAILABLE THROUGH SUCH SITES, SERVICES, AND RESOURCES, IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS APPLICABLE TO SUCH SITES, SERVICES AND RESOURCES.

You agree that a printed version of this Agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. We won’t be responsible for failures to fulfill any obligations due to causes beyond our control.

This Agreement is effective until terminated. Strata may, in its sole discretion, terminate this Agreement or terminate or suspend your access to or use of the Site, in each case, in whole or in part and at any time and for any reason, including if it believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of this Agreement. Upon any such termination or suspension, your right to use the Site will immediately cease. You agree that any termination of this Agreement or termination or suspension of your access to or use of the Site may be effected without prior notice, and that Strata may immediately deactivate or delete your password and username, and any or all related information and files associated with it, or bar any further access to such information or files. You agree that we won’t be responsible or liable to you or any third party for any termination of this Agreement or termination or suspension of your access to the Site or to any such information or files, and won’t be required to make such information or files available to you after any such termination or suspension.

YOU AGREE THAT YOU MUST EVALUATE, AND THAT YOU BEAR ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH, THE USE OF THE SITE AND ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SITE, INCLUDING ANY RELIANCE ON THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS OR USEFULNESS OF ANY MATERIALS AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SITE.

Moreover, the Internet or portions thereof may be subject to security breaches and other potentially harmful events. We are not responsible for any damage to any computer, software, hardware, equipment, content, data or other material resulting from any such security breach or harmful event, or from any Virus, bug, line failure, defect, delay in operation or transmission, deletion, error, fraud, interruption, omission, tampering, or unauthorized intervention, or any other technical or other malfunction.

You acknowledge and agree that you: (a) have received sufficient information to make an informed decision to buy the Site NFT, (b) have carefully considered the code of the Site NFTs’ smart contract and understand and accept its functions and risks; and (c) assume all risks associated with NFTs and other cryptographic tokens, including risks of (i) losing access to the token as a result of losing seed phrases, usernames, passwords, private keys or other account credentials, problems with digital wallets, or custodial or purchaser error, (ii) hacking and security weaknesses, including phishing, brute-force, birthday, denial-of-service, 51% and other attacks, (iii) unexpected surges in activity or other operational or technical difficulties, and (iv) legal or regulatory action, taxation, personal information disclosure, and other foreseeable and unforeseeable risks.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and discharge us and our successors and assigns from any and all past, present and future claims, demands, damages, fees, costs, rights and causes of action, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, existing or contingent, direct or derivative, that have existed or may have existed, or that do exist, arising out of or related to: (a) acts or omissions of third parties, including disputes between users, or (b) other matters for which you have agreed that we are not responsible or liable. In particular, you knowingly and voluntarily waive all rights and benefits that you may have as a result of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which states: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”

18.Indemnity.

You shall indemnify and hold us harmless, and at our election defend us, from and against all third-party claims, demands, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including attorney’s fees) (collectively, “Claims”) arising from or related to: (a) your access or use of, or activities in connection with, the Site (including Site NFTs, Artwork, Digital Items, and payments); (b) your violation of this Agreement, any other policies posted on the Site, any applicable law or regulation or any agreement with any third party; or (c) any disputes between you and another user or any third party.

IN PARTICULAR, WE WON’T BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SITE OR FROM ANY CONTENT POSTED ON THE SITE BY ANY OF US OR ANY THIRD PARTY. YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH THE SITE IS TO STOP USING THE SITE. OUR MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, WILL BE THE TOTAL AMOUNT, IF ANY, THAT YOU’VE PAID STRATA IN THE SIX MONTHS BEFORE YOUR CLAIM ACCRUED.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW FOR LIMITATIONS ON CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF CERTAIN DAMAGES; SOLELY TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LAW APPLIES TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

20.Disputes.

Governing Law. This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of Japan without regard to any conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the law of another jurisdiction.
Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement whether under contract, tort, statute or any other legal theory, or the breach, termination or invalidity of this Agreement, shall be finally settled by binding arbitration (“Arbitration”) administered by the Japan Commercial Arbitration Association and conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the Japan Commercial Arbitration Association then in force before one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with such rules. The place of arbitration shall be Tokyo, Japan. The Arbitration proceedings shall be confidential and in Japanese. The award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on all parties. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any Arbitration brought in connection with this Agreement will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor we will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No Arbitration or other proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected proceedings. To the extent allowed under applicable law, you and we also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or any consolidated claims involving another person’s account if we are a party to the proceeding. You are giving up your right to participate as a class representative or class member on any class claim you may have against us, including any right to class arbitration or any consolidation of individual arbitrations.
Time Limit on Claims. Any arbitration must be noticed within one year after the applicable claim accrued. Otherwise, the claim will be permanently barred, which means that the aggrieved party (whether you or us) will not have the right to assert the claim.

Minors may not buy, exchange, acquire, or sell NFTs. If you are under 18 years old, you may not access or use the Site.

Third-party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, this Agreement doesn’t create any third-party beneficiary rights in any individual or entity that isn’t a party to this Agreement.
Severability. If the application of any provision of this Agreement to any particular facts or circumstances shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by a court, arbitration panel or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction, then (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provision as applied to any other particular facts or circumstances, and the other provisions of this Agreement, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (ii) such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent possible so as to effect the intent of the parties.

Assignment. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of your rights or obligations under this Agreement without our express prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of their rights or obligations under this Agreement without restriction. Any attempt to assign this Agreement except as permitted under this section will be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each party’s successors and permitted assigns.
No Waiver. No waiver by any party of any breach or default of this Agreement will be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
Headings & Interpretation. Any heading, caption or section title contained herein is inserted only as a matter of convenience, and in no way defines or explains any section or provision hereof. “Including” means “including without limitation.”

Strata, K.K. (“Strata,” “we,” “us,” “our” Address: Kuwano Building 2F, 23-4, Jingumae 6-chome, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Japan 150-0001) takes our users’ privacy seriously. This privacy policy describes how we collect, process and share information through our Services. Please read this policy carefully.

By “Services,” we mean our website located at https://sugar.strata.gallery (including any successor sites) and any content, products or services that we make available there, including all data and information related to any of the foregoing, that we may from time to time make available, together with our social media accounts and email messages that link to this policy.

By providing us with Personal Information (as defined below), you agree to the terms and conditions of this policy. Capitalized terms not defined in this policy have the meanings provided in our Terms of Service.

PERSONAL INFORMATION

You may choose whether to provide Personal Information in connection with your use of the Services. If you choose not to provide the information we request, you may still visit and use parts of the Services, but you may be unable to access or use some features.

“Personal Information” is information that identifies you as an individual, including:

Public blockchain address
Name
Email address
Telephone number
Personal information included in communications you send to us

We may use third-party services to process payments in connection with the Services. If you wish to make a payment, your Personal Information may be collected by such third parties and not by us, and will be subject to the third party’s privacy policy, rather than this policy. We have no control over, and are not responsible for, this third party’s collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information.

If you submit any Personal Information relating to other people to us or to our service providers in connection with the Services, you represent that you have the authority to do so and to permit us to use the information in accordance with this policy.

How We May Collect Personal Information

We and our service providers may collect Personal Information in a variety of ways, including:

Through the Services: We may collect Personal Information through the Services, e.g., when you sign up for updates, register for an account, or make a payment.
From Automated Means: When you use the Services, the Service may collect information automatically.

THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

This policy doesn’t address, and we are not responsible for, the privacy, information, or other practices of any third parties, including any third party operating any site or service to which the Services link. The inclusion of a link on the Services doesn’t imply endorsement of the linked site or service by us or by our affiliates.

We seek to use reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect Personal Information within our organization.

Please also see the Blockchain Notice below under “Choices and Access” for additional details regarding the protection of your Personal Information.

RETENTION OF YOUR INFORMATION

We keep your Personal Information for no longer than necessary for the purposes for which it is processed. The length of time for which we retain information depends on the purposes for which we collected and used it, requirements of applicable laws, the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the information, the resolution of any pending or threatened disputes, and enforcement of our agreements.

When we no longer require the Personal Information, we will either delete or deidentify it or, if this is not possible, securely store it in accordance with this Privacy Policy and cease use of the Personal Information until deletion is possible. If we deidentify your Personal Information (so that it can no longer be associated with you), we may retain this information for longer periods.

CHOICES AND ACCESS

Your choices regarding our use and disclosure of your Personal Information.

We give you many choices regarding our use and disclosure of your Personal Information for marketing purposes. You may opt-out from:

Receiving electronic communications from us: If you no longer want to receive marketing-related emails from us on a going-forward basis, you may opt-out of receiving these marketing-related emails by clicking on an unsubscribe link at the bottom of an email that you receive from us, or by responding to the emails directly and requesting removal if such a link isn’t available. Additionally, you may send a request specifying your communications preferences to info@strata.gallery. You can’t opt out of receiving transactional emails related to your account with us or our Services, e.g., emails necessary to confirm your payment or emails with important matters related to agreements you have with us (for example agreements to make a purchase or use a Service). Please note that even if you opt out of receiving the foregoing emails, we may still respond to your requests and send you administrative, maintenance and operational emails (for example, in connection with a password reset request).
Receiving text messages or phone calls from us: Except as we describe in this policy, our Terms of Service or our other terms and conditions, we won’t typically communicate with you by text message or phone call unless you provide us with your phone number and we need to contact you for transactional purposes.

We will try to comply with your request(s) as soon as reasonably practicable and otherwise in compliance with applicable laws. Depending on the laws in your location and the nature of your request, we may charge a fee to process your request, which we will notify to you before we fulfill the request if there is a fee.

Your Other Personal Information Rights

You may view, change or delete much of the Personal Information we collect by logging into your profile and going to the “Edit Profile” page. Depending on your location, you may have other rights related to your Personal Information, and if that is the case, you may contact us as provided in the “Contacting Us” section below.

In your request, please make the nature of your request clear and what Personal Information is within the scope of your request. For your protection, we may only implement requests with respect to the Personal Information associated with the email address that you use to send us your request, and we may need to verify your identity before implementing your request. If we need to verify your identity, we will inform you for the information we need to verify your identity. Any such information collected for this purpose will only be used to verify your identity and complete your request. We may not be able to return information you provide in connection with a request, but we will destroy the information in compliance with applicable laws. We will try to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable and otherwise in compliance with applicable laws.

We may need to retain certain information as required by law, for recordkeeping purposes, or to complete any transactions that you began before requesting such change or deletion (e.g., when you make a payment, you may not be able to change or delete the Personal Information provided until after the completion of such payment). There may also be residual information that will remain within our databases and other records, which won’t be removed. We may not be able to fulfill your request due to certain exceptions in applicable law or due to legal obligations, and if we are not able to fulfill your request, we will notify you.

Depending on where you live, you may have a right to lodge a complaint with a regulatory authority if you believe we have violated your rights in your Personal Information. But we encourage you to contact us first at info@strata.gallery to give us a chance to address your concerns.

Blockchain Notice

In addition, if you engage in a transaction with us that relates to a public blockchain, we cannot edit, alter, modify, or delete any information that is stored on a public blockchain, for example the Ethereum blockchain, as we do not have custody or control over any public blockchains and the blockchain is immutable (it cannot be changed). The blockchain is a decentralized public ledger that records transactions across large networks of computer systems. We do not control the security of the blockchain or access to the information it contains. The information stored on the blockchain may include purchases, sales, and transfers related to your blockchain address and NFTs held at that address. Blockchains may be open to forensic analysis and the data they contain may be linked or otherwise identified to you and reveal your Personal Information or other private information such as financial details, transactions amounts, and more.

HOW WE RESPOND TO DO NOT TRACK SIGNALS

Some web browsers may allow you to enable a do-not-track feature that alerts the websites you visit that you do not want your online activities to be tracked. We don’t respond or take any action with respect to “do not track” signals or other mechanisms that allow consumers to choose regarding the collection of Personal Information about their online activities over time and across third-party websites or online services. Please see above for your choices regarding any tracing we or our third party providers may conduct.

COLLECTOR TERMS

Last update: February 13, 2023

These Collector Terms govern the rights of owners of non-fungible tokens minted on distributed digital ledgers or blockchains (“NFTs”) that contain or correspond to digital artworks (“Artworks”) created by Takashi Murakami or other artists (each, an “Artist”), which NFTs are first made available through the website operated by Strata, K.K. (“Strata”) currently located at https://sugar.strata.gallery (the “Site,” as further defined in the Terms of Service). Such owners are referred to in these terms as “Collectors.”

If you mint or buy an NFT through the Site, you agree to be bound by these Collector Terms and the Terms of Service, and if you buy or otherwise receive such an NFT from a previous owner, your rights to the NFT and the corresponding Artwork are governed by these Collector Terms and the Terms of Service.

1.NFTs vs. Artworks.

If you mint or buy an NFT through the Site, the blockchain will identify your public blockchain address as the owner of the NFT and you will receive a limited license to the corresponding Artwork as described in these Collector Terms. But other than that license, you do not have any rights in the Artwork, all of which rights remain with and are reserved by us. For ease of reference, we refer to NFTs originally minted on or acquired through the Site as “Site NFTs,” and a Site NFT together with the license rights in the corresponding Artwork as a “Digital Item.”

2.License to Artworks.

Subject to and conditioned upon your compliance with these Collector Terms, for as long as you own a Site NFT, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-assignable (except pursuant to your transfer of the Site NFT), worldwide license to display and perform the corresponding Artwork uniquely identified by the Site NFT, solely and exclusively for personal, non-commercial use. We grant you no other rights, whether express or implied, with respect to any Digital Item (in whole or in part), all of which we reserve. In particular, you receive no rights under any patent, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property or proprietary right. This is true even if your exercise of any rights granted herein would be prevented, frustrated or impaired without such a license.

3.Restrictions.

You may not modify or prepare any derivative work based upon any Digital Item, or commercialize any Digital Item, in whole or in part, or anything including or embodying it. Your license doesn’t permit you to, and you won’t, and you won’t authorize, permit or assist any third party to:

exercise any of the rights granted herein in any way that results in direct or indirect compensation, financial benefit or commercial gain of any kind to you or any third party;
delete, remove or obscure any trademark notice, copyright notice or other proprietary rights notice on or in any Digital Item;
register or attempt to register any trademark or copyright or otherwise acquire intellectual property rights in or to any Artwork;
exercise any of the rights granted herein to create, endorse, support, promote or condone any content, material or speech that is defamatory, obscene, pornographic, indecent, abusive, offensive, harassing, violent, hateful, racist, discriminatory, inflammatory or otherwise objectionable or inappropriate as we determine in our sole discretion;
use any Digital Item, in whole or in part, except as expressly authorized in these Collector Terms, or exercise any of the rights granted herein in any manner that violates applicable laws or regulations; or
use any Digital Item, in whole or in part, in connection with any product, service, business, lobbying effort, political campaign, or message, or in any manner that could suggest or imply our sponsorship, affiliation or endorsement of any product, service, business, lobbying effort, political campaign, or message, or in any manner that is likely to cause confusion or dilute, blur or tarnish our rights in the Digital Item. Any use of a Digital Item, including any goodwill generated by such use, will inure to our benefit.

4.Other Prohibitions.

You won’t (a) create, offer for sale, or sell fractionalized interests in any Digital Item, (b) separate, unlink, or decouple any Artwork from the corresponding Site NFT, or (c) use any Digital Item to create, offer for sale, advertise, promote, or sell anything, including any other NFT.

5.Transferring Digital Items.

Unless you are otherwise prohibited from doing so, you may transfer a Site NFT together with the license to its corresponding Artwork to a third party, provided that:

before making the transfer, you provide written notice to the intended transferee (i) of these Collector Terms and (ii) that their exercise of rights in the Digital Item are and will remain subject to and conditioned upon these Collector Terms (which notice may be provided in the sales listing for the Digital Item);
you make the transfer on a platform that (i) verifies that the blockchain identifies your public blockchain address as the owner of the corresponding Site NFT and (ii) conforms to the highest industry standards and customs regarding royalty collection and payment;
the transfer complies with applicable laws and regulations, and with the terms of the platform on which you effect the transfer; and
you pay (or cause to be paid) the applicable royalty in accordance with Section 6 below.

6.Royalty.

When you transfer any Digital Item, you shall pay us (or cause to be paid to us) a royalty equal to the amount paid by the transferee (without deductions of any kind) multiplied by 7.5 (seven point five) percent. The platform on which you make the transfer may automatically collect and pay us the royalty, which payment would fulfill your obligation to pay the applicable royalty. You shall pay all fees (e.g., “gas,” platform fees) and taxes (other than taxes on our net income) associated with the transfer and won’t deduct any such amounts from the applicable royalty. You shall pay all such amounts to an account or blockchain address that Strata designates, either in ETH or other cryptocurrency acceptable to Strata. IF YOU OBTAIN A DIGITAL ITEM FROM A THIRD PARTY WHO HAS NOT PAID THE ROYALTY DUE IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH TRANSFER, YOU OBTAIN NO LICENSE TO CORRESPONDING ARTWORK (AND FOR CLARITY, THE LICENSE IN SECTION 2 ABOVE DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU WITH RESPECT TO THE CORRESPONDING ARTWORK) UNLESS AND UNTIL YOU HAVE PAID US (OR CAUSED TO BE PAID TO US) SUCH ROYALTY.

7.Digital Items Are Not Securities.

SITE NFTS, ARTWORKS AND DIGITAL ASSETS ARE INTENDED FOR YOUR PERSONAL USE AND ENJOYMENT. YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE THEM WITH AN EXPECTATION OF PROFIT, AND WE WILL HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO TAKE ANY ACTION OR MAKE ANY EFFORTS TO CREATE OR ENHANCE THEIR VALUE.

8.Collector Perks.

Although we have no obligation to do so, we may, or we may authorize third parties to, occasionally make additional content, physical items or other benefits available to the owners of Site NFTs (“Collector Perks”). It’s up to you to stay informed about Collector Perks (e.g., by visiting the Site or other social media accounts) and, if necessary, take any steps to request or collect Collector Perks, which may include verification of your ownership of the applicable Site NFTs). We will provide any terms for Collector Perks in an appropriate location related to the Collector Perk. Unless those terms provide otherwise, any works we provide as Collector Perks are subject to these Collector Terms as if they were Digital Items. You will have no license rights to any physical items that we make available as Collector Perks unless we expressly provide otherwise when we make them available. None of us or any third party will have any responsibility or liability for, arising out of, or relating to any Collector Perk.

9.Termination.

If you breach these Collector Terms, the Terms of Service, or any other policies posted on the Site, your rights to any Digital Items, including the rights to display and perform corresponding Artworks, will immediately terminate without notice. Strata may reinstate your rights by providing you with written notice of such reinstatement if Strata, in its sole discretion, (a) concludes that you have cured the breach (if capable of cure), or (b) waives the breach. Strata may disable functionality for the affected Digital Items on the Site and on third-party sites, apps, platforms, and services, including by prohibiting third-party sites, apps, platforms, and services from retrieving or displaying any corresponding Artwork, and take other steps to prevent unauthorized use of Digital Items. We won’t have any obligation or liability to you for taking such actions, and you won’t interfere or attempt to interfere with them.

10.Entire Agreement.

These Collector Terms, together with the Site’s Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and all other policies posted on or referred to on the Site, constitute the entire agreement between you and us relating to the subject matter herein and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements or understandings between you and us relating to such subject matter.
