These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you ("you," "your," or "User") and Onchain Labs Co., Ltd. ("Onchain Labs," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), a company organized and existing under the laws of the Republic of Korea. These Terms govern your access to and use of the Hypermax protocol, websites, smart contracts, documentation, and associated decentralized technologies (collectively, the "Services").

BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES IN ANY MANNER, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS IN FULL, YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES.

1.2 The Company is a software developer and infrastructure provider. It does not act as a broker-dealer, exchange, custodian, investment adviser, or financial institution. The Services provided are limited to the deployment and maintenance of decentralized applications and associated interfaces that facilitate self-directed user interactions with autonomous smart contracts.
