Introduction

GetCoins is a convertible virtual currency exchange that buys and sells virtual currency through use of kiosk machines with proprietary software placed in commercial/retail locations, and, online on its website.

By using the GetCoins Services, as defined herein, you agree to comply with and be legally bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree to any of the terms in this Agreement, or any subsequent modification to this Agreement, you may not use any of the GetCoins Services, and, if you have created an account, you must cancel your GetCoins Account, free of charge, as set forth below.

We may amend this Agreement by posting on the GetCoins website or emailing to you a revised Agreement. Any revised Agreement shall be effective immediately upon your use of any of the GetCoins Services, or one month after the date of posting, whichever occurs first, except where the changes are required by law or on the instruction of a competent governmental agency, in which case, they will be effective immediately. By continuing to use the GetCoins Services once the revised Agreement is effective, you agree to be bound by the Agreement. We may (a) modify or discontinue any portion of the GetCoins Services, and (b) limit or terminate your access to the GetCoins Services, at any time, without notice to you. You agree that GetCoins shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification or termination of the GetCoins Services, or limitations or termination of your access to the GetCoins Services, except to the extent otherwise expressly set forth herein.

To be eligible to use the GetCoins Services, you must be at least 18 years old. By accessing or using the GetCoins Services you represent and warrant that you are 18 or older.

Please note the following risks of using GetCoins Services:

·        Every virtual currency transaction is confirmed by the virtual currency network.  The confirmation takes a period of time, and will be unconfirmed during that period of time (usually less than one hour, but up to one day or more). A virtual currency transaction is not complete while it is being confirmed. Virtual currency associated with transactions that are in a pending state will be designated accordingly.

 ·        The risk of loss in trading or holding virtual currency is real and can be substantial. Therefore, you should carefully consider whether trading or holding virtual currency is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. The price or value of virtual currency can change rapidly, decrease, and potentially even fall to zero. If you use a GetCoins product which allows you and/or third parties to access and hold bitcoin private keys, you acknowledge that GetCoins is not responsible for safeguarding such keys and that GetCoins is not responsible for any loss of virtual currency resulting from theft, loss, or mishandling of private keys outside its control.

·        In any financial service environment, there are those who choose to prey on others. GetCoins is always striving to protect its customers against scams. Please visit our “Common Scams” Page to become more aware of the way scams are perpetrated.

Please be aware of the following material risks involved in virtual currency generally, including at a minimum, the following:

o   Virtual Currency is not legal tender, is not backed by the government, and accounts and value balances are not subject to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or Securities Investor Protection Corporation protections

o   Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of virtual currency;

o   Transactions in virtual currency are irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions are not be recoverable;

o   Some virtual currency transactions shall be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that the customer initiates the transaction;

o   The value of virtual currency may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currency for virtual currency, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of a particular virtual currency should the market for that virtual currency disappear;

o   There is no assurance that a person who accepts a virtual currency as payment today will continue to do so in the future;

o   The volatility and unpredictability of the price of virtual currency relative to fiat currency may result in significant loss over a short period of time;

o   The nature of virtual currency may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyber attack;

o   The nature of virtual currency means that any technological difficulties experienced by GetCoins may prevent the delivery (access or use) of a customer’s virtual currency;

o   You are solely liable for unauthorized virtual currency transactions, no different than you are responsible for unauthorized cash transactions or unauthorized fiat currency transactions. You should protect your virtual currency transactions and your digital wallet with the same care and concern as your cash transactions and your traditional wallet; and

o   GetCoins does not act as a custodian or otherwise hold virtual currency, claims or any other assets on behalf of customers.  

o   All transactions are recorded on the virtual currency blockchain at www.blockchain.info.www.blockchain.info .

o   The customer should preserve all records of transactions provided by GetCoins, and does not have the right to receive periodic account statements and valuations from GetCoins.

 o   Digital Currencies represent a speculative investment and involve a high degree of risk. Investors should have the financial ability, sophistication/experience and willingness to bear the risks of an investment. An investment in digital currencies may not be suitable for all investors. Digital currencies are NOT automatically or normally considered securities and are NOT subject to the same regulatory requirements as SEC-registered securities, exchange traded funds, or similar investment vehicles. Potential investors should carefully consider the long term nature of an investment in digital currencies prior to making an investment decision. You should note carefully the following:

·  Digital currency is not legal tender, is not backed by the government. GetCoins does not hold any balances or accounts of any kind for its counterparties. Nonetheless, balances of digital currencies are not subject to federal deposit insurance corporation or securities investor protection corporation protections;

·   Legislative and regulatory changes or actions at the state, federal, or international level may adversely affect the use, transfer, exchange, and value of digital currency;

·   Transactions in digital currency are irreversible, and, accordingly, losses due to fraudulent or accidental transactions may not be recoverable;

·   Some digital currency transactions shall be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that the counterparty initiates the transaction;

·   The value of digital currency may be derived from the continued willingness of market participants to exchange fiat currency for digital currency, which may result in the potential for permanent and total loss of value of a particular digital currency should the market for that digital currency disappear;

·   Amendments – we may amend any portion of the Terms of Service at any time by posting the revised version with an updated revision date. The changes will become effective, and shall be deemed acceptable by you, the first time you transact with GetCoins, after the initial posting of the revised Terms of Service, and shall apply only on a going-forward basis with respect to transactions initiated after the posting date. In the event that you do not agree with any such modification, your sole and exclusive remedy is to terminate your use of our services and close your account. You agree that we shall not be liable to you or any third party as a result of any losses suffered by any modification or amendment to the Terms of Service. If the revised Terms of Service includes a material change, we will provide you with prior notice via our website and/or email before the material change becomes effective. For this purpose a “material change” means a significant change other than changes that (i) are to or for your benefit, (ii) are required to be made to comply with applicable laws and/or regulations or as otherwise required by one of our regulators, (iii) relates to a new product or services made available to you, or (iv) to otherwise clarify an existing term.

·   There is no assurance that a person who accepts a digital currency as payment today will continue to do so in the future;

·    The volatility and unpredictability of the price of digital currency relative to fiat currency may result in significant loss over a short period of time;

·    The nature of digital currency may lead to an increased risk of fraud or cyber-attack; and

·   GetCoins does not hold any balances or accounts of any kind for its counterparties. Nonetheless the nature of digital currency means that any technological difficulties experienced may prevent the access or use of your digital currency.

2. Creating a GetCoins Account.

2.1. Registration.

In order to use any of the GetCoins Services, you must first register. At a Kiosk, registration is done by providing your name, phone number, identity document (if required) and affirming your acceptance of this Agreement. Online, registration is done by providing your bank account information, providing your digital wallet information, providing a completed VIP Application and an image of a government-issued photo identification. Upon successful completion of the registration process, GetCoins will approve and activate your GetCoins Account. GetCoins may, in our sole discretion, refuse to allow you to establish a GetCoins Account. In order to use the GetCoins Service, you must provide information sufficient for us to verify your identity. If you create a GetCoins Account you agree to: (a) provide accurate, truthful and current information when creating an Account or when using the GetCoins Site (OTC Service) or one of our Kiosks; (b) use your Account and the GetCoins Services only for yourself, not share access with others, and not conduct transactions for others; and (c) promptly notify us if you discover or otherwise suspect any fraudulent activity, security breaches or misuse related to your account.

2.2. Identity Verification.

In order to use certain features of the GetCoins Services, including certain transactions involving virtual currency and/or fiat currency, you may be required to provide GetCoins with certain personal information, including, but not limited to, your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, taxpayer identification number, and government identification number. GetCoins may also require you to answer certain questions or take actions in order to verify your identity, provide the GetCoins Services to you, or comply with applicable laws. In submitting this or any other personal information as may be required, you verify that the information is accurate and authentic, and you agree to notify and update GetCoins if any information changes. You hereby authorize GetCoins to, directly or through third parties, make reasonably necessary inquiries to verify your identity and/or to protect against fraud, including to query identity information contained in public reports and to take actions we deem necessary. You further authorize any and all third parties to which such inquiries may be directed to fully respond to such inquiries. You acknowledge that GetCoins, or one of its agents or employees, will analyze and validate your identity by reference to the information you provide to determine whether you qualify to use the GetCoins Services (“Verification Process”). Your use of the GetCoins Services may be delayed during the Verification Process, and GetCoins disclaims responsibility for any loss, delay or other harm relating thereto. If you do not pass the Verification Process, or if you fail to provide any of the information required to access and use the GetCoins Services, you will be denied access to the Services. If you believe your access to the GetCoins Services has been wrongly denied, please contact us at support@getcoins.com .

3. Virtual Currency Transactions.

3.1. Transactions with GetCoins.

When buying or selling virtual currency (e.g. Bitcoin) through the GetCoins Conversion Service, you are buying from, or selling to, GetCoins directly; there are no intermediaries.  GetCoins does not act as an intermediary or marketplace facilitator between other buyers and sellers of virtual currency. The Conversion Service is subject to the GetCoins “Conversion Rate.” “Conversion Rate” means the liquidity adjusted price of a given virtual currency’s amount, in terms of local currency, as quoted to you on the GetCoins Site or Kiosk at the time you begin a Conversion Service transaction. The Conversion Rate is stated either as a “Buy Price,” the price (stated in fiat currency) at which you purchase a virtual currency from GetCoins, or as a “Sell Price,” the price (stated in fiat currency) at which you sell a virtual currency to GetCoins. For the purpose of any transaction which incorporates the Conversion Rate, you agree, as a condition of using any GetCoins Services, to accept the Conversion Rate as the sole conversion metric.

IMPORTANT: If the Conversion Rate changes due to a delay between the time you make your purchase and the time the order can be fulfilled, and the delay was due to the need for evaluation, investigation, or a document or information solicitation by the GetCoins Compliance

 Department, or by your delay in providing such additional information or documentation, then you shall be provided the lowest Conversion Rate during the delay period. In other words, if there is a delay caused by you, regulatory requirements, or required by GetCoins policies or procedures, you may not receive the amount of virtual currency originally quoted. You will receive the lowest amount of virtual currency in exchange for the amount paid, that existed during the delay period. Ordinarily, there will be little or no difference in the amount of virtual currency delivered, but there are instances where, for example, a delay you cause may last weeks or months, and if the price of the virtual currency you purchased increases, you will only be provided a lower equivalent amount of coins. For example, if you buy $100 of bitcoin on May 1^st, and are quoted delivery of 0.0026 bitcoins, but a delay causes bitcoin value to rise, and $100 only buys 0.0013 bitcoins at the end of the delay (e.g. on May 15^th), then you will not receive the originally quoted 0.0026 bitcoins, but rather, only the 0.0013 bitcoins (i.e. the appropriate amount of bitcoins for $100 as of the end of the delay).

3.1.1. Virtual Currency Purchase Transactions.

After successfully completing the Verification Process proscribed by GetCoins, you may purchase virtual currency from GetCoins, subject to applicable limits established by GetCoins. If your virtual currency purchase is marked as “complete” or “pending” in your digital wallet, you cannot cancel, reverse, or change the order. In connection with any purchase of virtual currency from GetCoins, GetCoins will use good faith efforts to fulfill a purchase order at the applicable Buy Price Conversion Rate quoted on the GetCoins Site or GetCoins Kiosk at the time that you place the order. However, from time to time, it may be necessary for GetCoins to delay fulfillment of a purchase order until such time as we are able to execute the transaction. Or, there may be a necessary delay due to an evaluation, investigation, or document or information solicitation by the GetCoins Compliance Department. In such cases, if the Conversion Rate at the time that you place the order changes, the amount of virtual currency you receive may change. See Section 3.1 (above). 

3.1.2. Virtual Currency Sale Transactions.

After successfully completing the Verification Process proscribed by GetCoins, you may sell virtual currency to GetCoins, subject to the above-referenced limits. Upon any sale of virtual currency to GetCoins, all settlements or payments by GetCoins for such transactions shall be paid in local fiat currency (e.g., U.S. Dollars) at the applicable Sell Price Conversion Rate quoted on the GetCoins Site at the time that you approved the transaction.

3.2 Kiosk Transactions.

Transactions may be done at a kiosk twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. All transactions will be confirmed in the order in which they were submitted. Upon confirmation, an e-mail or sms text message may (but is not required to) be sent to you. GetCoins encourages all Customers to log into their bitcoin wallet account within twelve (12) hours of initiating a purchase or sale transaction in order to verify the transaction's status and to review all payment procedures and/or transaction history.

3.2.1. Accepted Currency

You may only insert valid U.S. paper bills of the type accepted by a GetCoins kiosk and that are clean, not written on or defaced, not ripped, and not otherwise damaged (“Accepted Currency”). Do not insert foreign currency, antique currency, commemorative currency, currency no longer in circulation, ripped or damaged currency, or any other objects or items other than Accepted Currency. Anything other than Accepted Currency will not be counted and anything inserted into the kiosk may not be returned. Inserting anything other than Accepted Currency into the kiosk may cause errors in count or other malfunctions that may result in the loss of Accepted Currency inserted by you.

3.2.2 Count.

The GetCoins kiosk is designed and maintained with a goal of achieving an accurate count of the Accepted Currency that you insert. GetCoins and any affiliate or third-party operator of a kiosk do not guarantee accuracy, however, as errors may occur. Variances may arise because of, among other things, debris inserted into the kiosk, insertion of currency or items other than Accepted Currency, mechanical damage to the kiosk, a software malfunction, a power interruption, or otherwise abnormal operating conditions. If you believe that your currency has been counted inaccurately or have any other questions, please call the third-party operator at the number provided on the applicable kiosk.

3.2.3 Operation of Certain Kiosks.

GetCoins operates on some kiosks in collaboration with affiliates and third-party operators that provide certain services that may or may not be on behalf of GetCoins and/or related to the provisioning and operation of the kiosk. You acknowledge that you may be asked to contact the affiliate of third-party operator for issues related to the function, malfunction, or other operation of the kiosk, including without limitation issues related to inserting currency, currency count, receipt printing and other printing functions, kiosk shutdown or malfunction, and electrical or other facility or infrastructure issues. You agree to follow any instructions provided on the kiosk or on the kiosk screen with respect to any such issues.

3.3 Online Transactions.

Transactions may be done online twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week. You can load funds into your online (OTC) Account using a bank transfer (or other payment methods available on the Site), and your GetCoins Account will show the funds once we have received them. You may only load your own funds, from your own account, using the bank account information you provided at registration, and not from any third party account. When funds are loaded into your Account you will be able to see the funds on your private Dashboard. Your Account is not a custodial, deposit or investment account.

Customer funds reflected in a GetCoins customer OTC Account will not earn any interest.

           3.3.2        Purchase of Digital Currency. 

You may purchase supported digital currency by using the funds available to you and shown on the dashboard of your GetCoins Online (OTC) Account. To carry out a digital currency transaction using your funds, you must follow the relevant instructions on the Site. A digital currency transaction using your funds should normally be settled no later than one business day after we receive your instructions. You authorize Us to debit funds from your GetCoins online (OTC) Account consistent with your instructions.

           3.3.3              Receipt of Instructions.

If you believe that a transaction using your GetCoins Online (OTC) Account has been carried out that you did not authorize (an “Unauthorized Transaction”), or if you have reason to believe that a transaction using your GetCoins Online (OTC) Account has been incorrectly carried out or is not complete (an “Incorrect Transaction”), you must contact GetCoins as soon as possible, and in any case no later than 1 month after the Unauthorized Transaction or Incorrect Transaction occurred. It is important that you regularly check your account balance and your transaction history to ensure any Unauthorized Transactions or Incorrect Transactions are identified and notified to us at the earliest possible opportunity.

7.10. Arbitration. 

Please read the following ARBITRATION AGREEMENT carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with GetCoins and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from GetCoins. Both you and GetCoins acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, GetCoins’ officers, directors, employees and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third-party beneficiary hereof.

(a) Arbitration Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. The Parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in Clark County, Nevada. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes. The arbitrator shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You agree and acknowledge that you and GetCoins will use binding arbitration to resolve all disputes and claims that may arise. Included within the scope of this agreement for binding arbitration are all disputes, whether based on tort, contract, statute, equitable law, or otherwise. All rules of pleading (including the right of demurrer or dismissal), all rules of evidence, all rights to resolution of the dispute by means of motions for summary judgment, judgment on the pleadings, and judgment under Code of Civil Procedure of the State of Nevada shall apply and be observed. Resolution of the dispute shall be based solely upon the law governing the claims and defenses pleaded, and the arbitrator may not invoke any basis (including but not limited to, notions of "just cause") other than such controlling law. The arbitrator shall have the immunity of a judicial officer from civil liability when acting in the capacity of an arbitrator, which immunity supplements any other existing immunity. Likewise, all communications during or in connection with the arbitration proceedings are privileged and/or confidential, as applicable. Awards shall include the arbitrator's written reasoned opinion.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY VOLUNTARILY AGREEING TO THIS BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT YOU AND GETCOINS GIVE UP THEIR RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY. ANY CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST GETCOINS.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court and seeks to resolve disputes more quickly. Instead of a judge or a jury, the case will be decided by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same damages and relief that a court can.

If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced (but in no case shall there be a class arbitration). All disputes or claims shall be resolved finally and exclusively by binding arbitration with a single arbitrator administered by the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.org) or JAMS (www.jamsadr.org) according to this provision and the applicable arbitration rules for that forum. You agree that any arbitration hearing will occur in Las Vegas, Nevada, or another mutually agreeable location. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. All arbitration fees will be paid by both parties in equivalent amounts. The prevailing party on any dispute or claim, for which a party is legally entitled to attorney’s fees, may recover those fees from the arbitrator. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to you and GetCoins also include respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorized users or beneficiaries of GetCoins Services. Subject to and without waiver of the arbitration provisions above, you agree that any judicial proceedings (other than small claims actions in consumer cases) will be brought in and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state courts in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada, or jurisdiction of federal court located in the State of Nevada.

(b) Small Claims Court; Infringement. Either you or GetCoins may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Clark County, Nevada or any United States county where you live or work. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction, to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a Party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.

(c) Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND GETCOINS WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. You and GetCoins are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and GetCoins over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND GETCOINS WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.

(d) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Action(s). ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
