You agree that You have read, understand, and agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions contained herein. PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SERVICE.

These terms are the entire agreement between DCV and you with respect to the software. Headings in these Terms are for your convenience only and do not have any legal meaning or effect. If any part of these terms are invalid, the rest of the Terms will remain in effect. If DCV waives or fails to enforce any term or condition of this agreement on any one or more occasions, whether by conduct or otherwise, its waiver or failure to enforce will not mean that it must waive or cannot enforce such term or condition on any other occasion, or any other term or condition of this agreement. The meaning of these Terms cannot be changed by your or DCV’s conduct, even if repeated, or by any custom or practice of others engaged in the same or similar businesses.

You will be provided notice of any such modification by email, by announcement in our Discord, or by the publishing of such on the HODL Totals website’s Terms of Service page.

We are reliant upon Google Cloud Platform™ technologies, that are constantly evolving, usually for the better. However, as a result, features that we are using and relying on, might be discontinued by Google in the future. We aim to adapt and evolve as Google technologies does, but we cannot guarantee we will always succeed on that effort.
You understand and agree that DCV does not have the ability to grant or revoke any sharing permissions to Customer’s Data or other content and materials stored in Customer’s User Account. Therefore, You are solely responsible for granting access to such Data and revoking such access when You cease use of the Service. DCV shall not be responsible and shall have no liability for any damages that result from Your failure to grant or revoke such access.
The Customer will at all times use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) prevent unauthorized access to or use of the Service, and notify DCV as soon as possible of any such unauthorized access to or use of the Service, and (ii) be fully responsible for its’ Users compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Customer agrees to indemnify DCV for all claims and losses related to any such acts and/or omissions, except to the extent such acts and/or omissions are within the ordinary intended use of the Service for which DCV has granted Customer the foregoing license.

Please review our Privacy Policy to undestand our practices.
“Confidential Information” means all non-public information disclosed in written, oral or visual form by either party or its affiliates (the “disclosing party”) to the other or its affiliates (the “receiving party”). Confidential Information may include, but is not limited to, services, cryptocurrency addresses, cryptocurrency wallet information, coin price data, computer programs, source code, names and expertise of employees and consultants, know-how, and other technical, business, financial and product development information. Confidential Information does not include any information that the receiving party can demonstrate by its written records (1) was rightfully known to it without obligation of confidentiality prior to its disclosure hereunder by the disclosing party; (2) is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act of the receiving party, its affiliates and/or their employees and contractors; (3) has been rightfully received without obligation of confidentiality from a third party authorized to make such a disclosure; or (4) is independently developed by the receiving party without reference to or use of, directly or indirectly, confidential information disclosed hereunder.
Pursuant to our Legal Guidelines, neither party will use any Confidential Information of the other party except (i) as necessary to exercise its rights and fulfill its obligations under these Terms, (ii) as expressly permitted by these Terms or (iii) as expressly authorized in writing by the disclosing party. The receiving party shall use the same degree of care to protect the disclosing party’s Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature, but in no circumstances less than a reasonable standard of care. The receiving party may not disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity other than to those of its affiliates, employees and contractors (and its affiliates’ employees and contractors) who: (i) are subject to a written agreement with the receiving party that includes use and confidentiality restrictions that are at least as protective as those set forth in these Terms, and (ii) need access to such Confidential Information solely for the purpose of fulfilling the receiving party’s obligations or exercising the receiving party’s rights hereunder. DCV may also disclose Customer’s Confidential Information to Google (or any of its affiliate) for the sole purpose of rendering the Service. The foregoing obligations will not restrict the receiving party from disclosing Confidential Information of the disclosing party: (1) pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body, provided that the receiving party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the disclosing party prior to such disclosure; and (2) on a confidential basis to its legal and financial advisors.
