PLANET IX
Terms & Conditions
Last updated December 1, 2022
AGREEMENT TO TERMS
Please read these Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) carefully before purchasing sections of land (hereinafter “PIX”) in the game world of Planet IX, a decentralized, community-driven platform (“CDP”) created and operated by Planet IX, Sweden (“Planet IX”, “we” or “us”). Your (“you” or “Buyer”) purchase of PIX is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. If you disagree with any part of the Terms then you may not purchase PIX.
By purchasing, accessing or by calling an action on a Pack Drop or through CDP smart contract, you are deemed to agree to be bound by and accept these Terms, as set out below (“Acceptance”). If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have full authority to bind the company or legal entity (and its employees) to this agreement. These Terms must be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy which is hereby incorporated into these Terms by reference
AGE LIMIT
PIX are offered and available to Buyers who are 18 years of age or older. By purchasing, accessing or using PIX, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with Planet IX and meet the foregoing eligibility requirement. If you do not meet this requirement, you must not purchase, access or use PIX.
THE PIX
The PIX are gameplay environments which players can inhabit and the two PIX NFTs (“Landmark NFTs” & “PIX CONTROL NFTs” will exist as non-fungible tokens (“PIX NFTs”) on the Polygon Blockchain. The PIX NFTs are in finite supply, and may have different characteristics and relative value. PIX may enable users to create, buy and transfer unique digital game assets on your PIX on CDP for game-making purposes and may be used as collateral/security in CDP.
Your ownership of the PIX NFTs (“Own”) means, in relation to a PIX, that the PIX NFTs has been purchased
by you or otherwise rightfully acquired from a legitimate source, where proof of such purchase is recorded
on the Polygon Blockchain. You agree, in relation to PIX, that you Own the PIX NFTs in accordance with any
description which accompanies that PIX NFT. Unless stated otherwise in the description of the applicable
PIX, PIX that you Own may be freely transferable and/or possible to rent out under specific terms and
conditions, subject to the provision that any transferee will be subject to these Terms.
However, you acknowledge and agree that Planet IX owns all rights, title and interest in and to any art,
design, photograph, and drawing that may be associated with any PIX NFT that you Own (“Art”), and all
intellectual property rights therein. The rights that you have in and to the Art are limited to those
expressly stated below, under “Intellectual Property Ownership, Licenses and Restrictions'' below.
Once you Own a PIX NFT, you are responsible for any loss or damage to, or loss of access to, the PIX and
Planet IX shall have no liability whatsoever in such circumstances, regardless of cause. You expressly
understand and agree that your use of the PIX NFT and CDP is at your sole risk and that the PIX NFT and
CDP are provided “as is'' and “as available.” All sales of PIX NFTs are final.
Planet IX reserves the right to subject the transfer of PIX NFTs to a dedicated transfer policy, as
drafted up at Planet IX’s sole discretion (an “NFT Transfer Policy”). Any applicable NFT Transfer Policy,
as in force from time to time, shall be made available on the CDP website. After a PIX NFTs is initially
sold or otherwise released or put into circulation by Planet IX, Planet IX has no control over subsequent
transactions. Accordingly, we will have no liability to you (or anyone else) as a result of any
transactions that you engage in with respect to handling PIX NFTs.
However, due to the nature of the Planet IX Merkle Tree, we reserve the right to resupply PIX to the CDP
platform after an extended period of inactivity with or without notice at any time. Such measures may give
you the right to the same amount of PIX upon request.
Once you have made a purchase of a PIX NFT we therefore encourage you to promptly take the necessary steps
to complete your transaction (e.g., activate or download any content or secure any seed phrase or
corresponding private key).
Within your PIX NFT, you may be able to edit your Metadata to adjust title, description, URL link, preview image, and logo within the limits of the smart contracts. All Metadata (and any URL, images, or logos to which it links or that are uploaded) must comply with these Terms and specifically cannot link to or contain any material or content that is pornographic, threatening, harassing, libelous, hate-oriented, harmful, defamatory, racist, xenophobic, or illegal under applicable laws in certain jurisdictions. All Metadata are subject to Planet IX’ CODE OF CONDUCT. Planet IX reserves the right to moderate and/or delete any Metadata that does not comply with these Terms or the CODE OF CONDUCT.
REGISTRATION
We reserve the right to require that you register with us in order to access the PIX. If you are required
to register an account with us or any third party, you agree to provide accurate, current and complete
information about yourself as part of that process.
When registering you may be required to select a username and password, private key, or other form of
secure authentication that will be used to access your account (“Password”). You are responsible for any
use of your Password, whether by you or others. You agree to keep your Password confidential and not share
it with a third party. Planet IX is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect
your username, Password, or any other personal information, including but not limited to loss of access to
any PIX.
You acknowledge and agree that certain data pertaining to you, which you may view as sensitive, will be
accessible to the public through the Polygon Blockchain. Such data includes, but is not limited to
information identifying and/or otherwise pertaining to your User Account.
You authorize Planet IX to act on instructions received through use of your Password, and that Planet IX
may, but is not obligated to, deny access or block any transaction made through use of your Password
without prior notice.
TERMS OF SERVICE, PRIVACY AND SECURITY
It is your responsibility to know, understand and abide by these Terms and the Privacy Policy, which is
incorporated herein by reference. Any information that you may provide to Planet IX during your use of the
PIX is subject to Planet IX’s Privacy Policy. Any information that you may provide to a third party site
during your use of the PIX is subject to the third party site’s privacy policy, and your use of any third
Party Site included in CDP is governed by the terms of service of the applicable third party site.
You are solely responsible of ensuring that any process, devices and/or services you employ to access or
use your PIX or any of the websites and the CDP platform (in particular, without limitation, to acquire,
hold, manage and sell PIX) do not expose you to the risk of viruses, malicious computer code or other
forms of interference which may damage your own computer system and/or any data contained therein. To the
greatest extent permitted by law and without limiting the generality of this Section, Planet IX excludes
any liability for any interference or damage to your devices, computer system and/or any data contained
therein in connection with your access or use of PIX or any of the CDP-websites or CDP.
SALE OF PIX; PAYMENT
Any revenue earned for sales or rentals of the PIX, minus any transaction fees, shall be paid to you
immediately on the Polygon Blockchain, by the purchaser of your PIX. If you elect to sell or rent your
PIX, any financial transactions that you engage in will be conducted solely through Polygon Blockchain via
MetaMask (or other EVM-compatible wallets and browsers). Planet IX has no insight into or control over
these payments or transactions, nor do we have the ability to reverse any transactions. With that in mind,
Planet IX will have no liability to you or to any third party for any claims or damages that may arise as
a result of any transactions that you engage in regarding the PIX.
Planet IX reserves the right to charge a fee for sales transactions that occur in CDP from the purchaser.
Such a fee will automatically be applied as part of the sales transaction.
As between you and Planet IX, you will be solely responsible to pay any and all sales, use, value-added
and other taxes, duties, and assessments (except taxes on Planet IX’s net income) now or hereafter claimed
or imposed by any governmental authority (collectively, “Taxes”) associated with your use of PIX
(including, without limitation, any Taxes that may become payable as a result of your ownership, renting
out or transfer of PIX).
COMPLIANCE
You acknowledge that certain operations in respect of the PIX, in particular, without limitation, the
transfer of PIX to third parties, may constitute and/or otherwise fall within the scope of regulated
activities under applicable laws in certain jurisdictions. You acknowledge that you may not use the PIX to
engage into any such activities and that Planet IX makes no representation in respect of, or otherwise in
connection with, the suitability of the PIX and/or any output generated by using the PIX, to engage into
any regulated activity regarding the PIX or such output’s compliance with laws and regulations applicable
to such activities. If you choose to engage in regulated activities, you do so at your own risk and sole
responsibility.
In particular, you are solely responsible for your compliance with any applicable laws and regulatory
requirements, including any applicable provisions of financial markets laws. You herewith expressly agree
to ensure compliance with any applicable legal requirements at your own cost and responsibility in using
the PIX and/or any output generated by using the PIX.
