INTERFACE
Terms OF USE

Welcome to the Siren Markets application, leveraging the Siren protocol. The following Terms of Use govern user access to and use of app.siren.xyz and the underlying Siren protocol (collectively, the “Interface”)..

1. Acceptance of the Terms of Use

These terms of use are entered into by and between you (the “User”) and Lotus Information Ltd. d/b/a Siren Markets (“Company,” “we,” or “us”). The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, “Terms of Use”), govern User’s access to and use of the Interface located at app.siren.xyz, including any content, functionality, subpages, and services offered on or through the Interface. The Interface provides access to the Siren protocol which facilitates the purchase, trade, and redemption of options by users without the use of a third-party mechanism or order matching to complete settlement on-chain (the “Protocol”), including an ability for Participants (defined herein) to serve in certain capacities or perform certain functionalities when interacting with the Protocol.

User must read the Terms of Use carefully before it starts to use the Interface. By using the Interface, or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to the User, the User accepts and agrees to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy, incorporated herein by reference, as amended from time to time. If the User does not want to agree to these Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, or any documents applicable to them that are incorporated herein by reference, the User must not access or use the Interface. To the extent that there is a conflict between these Terms of Use and any applicable additional terms, these Terms will control unless expressly stated otherwise. If the User does not agree with these Terms of Use, that User must not visit or use the Interface.

This Interface is offered and available to users who are 18 years of age or older. By using this Interface, the User represents and warrants that the User is at least the higher of legal age to form a binding contract with the Company in the User’s applicable jurisdiction or 18 years of age, and meet all of the foregoing eligibility requirements. If the User does not meet all of these requirements, the User must not access or use the Interface. Further, the following persons or wallets must not access or use the Interface:

  • Citizens and residents of the United Kingdom, the United States, and any jurisdiction on the sanctions lists published by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control or HM Treasury Office of Financial Sanctions (together, the “Sanctions Lists”);
  • Any person or wallet on the Sanctions Lists; and
  • If the person’s use or access of the Interface would be illegal or otherwise violate any applicable law.

User and Company shall undertake in good faith with respect to each other’s rights and undertake with the other to do all things reasonably that are necessary or desirable to give effect to the spirit and intent of this Agreement.

2. Changes to the Terms of Use

We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and apply to all access to and use of the Interface thereafter. However, any changes to the dispute resolution provisions set out in Governing Law and Jurisdiction will not apply to any disputes for which the parties have actual notice before the date the change is posted on the Interface. 

The User’s continued use of the Interface following the posting of revised Terms of Use means that the User accepts and agrees to the changes. The User is expected to check this page each time it accesses this Interface, so it is aware of any changes, as they are binding on the User. 

Notwithstanding the above, we will seek your consent to future modifications to the Terms of Use to the extent we are required to do so by law.

3. Electronic Communication

We may be required or choose to provide certain communications to User in written form. By agreeing to the Terms of Use, User consents to the delivery of those communications in electronic form, including e-mail or other electronic message. 

User agrees that all terms and conditions, disclosures, or agreements provided by Company electronically satisfy any legal requirement such communications would satisfy if they were provided in non-electronic writing. User waives any rights to require an original, wet, non-electronic signature, to the extent that such waiver is not prohibited under applicable law.

4. Accessing the Interface and User Security

We reserve the right to withdraw or amend this Interface, and any service or material we provide on the Interface, in our sole discretion without notice. We will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Interface is unavailable at any time or for any period. From time to time, we may restrict access to some parts of the Interface, or the entire Interface, to those who access the Interface (“Participants”).

The User is responsible for both:

  • Making all arrangements necessary for the User to have access to the Interface.
  • Ensuring that all persons who access the Interface through the User’s internet connection are aware of these Terms of Use and comply with them.

To access the Interface or some of the resources it offers, the User may be asked to utilize certain Web3 capabilities, such as MetaMask or another crypto-asset wallet capable of interacting with the User’s web browser (“Web3 Utilities”). It is a condition of the User’s use of the Interface that all the information only operate such Web3 Utilities with a private key(s) that the User created or has the direct, explicit permission of the party who created the relevant private key(s). The User agree that all information it provides to interact with the Interface or otherwise, including, but not limited to, through the use of any interactive features on the Interface, is governed by our Privacy Policy, and the User consents to all actions we take with respect to the User’s information consistent with our Privacy Policy 

If the User utilizes a Web3 Utility that relies on a username, password, private key, or any other piece of information as part of its security procedures, the User must treat such information as confidential, and the User must not disclose that information to any other person or entity. The User also acknowledges that any identity linked to its Web3 Utility is personal to the User and agrees not to provide any other person with access to such identity while using this Interface or portions of it using its Web3 Utility. The User also agrees to ensure that it will lock or otherwise prevent its Web3 Utility from unauthorized use on this Interface at the end of each session. The User should use particular caution when accessing the Interface from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record the User’s password, private key, or other personal information. 

We have the right to disable any identity associated with a Web3 Utility (such as that represented by a public address) on the Interface or to block any IP address from accessing the Interface at any time in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including if, in our opinion, the User or that identity has violated any provision of these Terms of Use.

5. Intellectual Property Rights

The Interface and its entire contents, features, and functionality (including but not limited to all information, software, text, displays, images, video, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement thereof) are owned by the Company, its licensors, or other providers of such material and are subject to the copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property or proprietary rights laws of the British Virgin Islands and any other applicable laws. 

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Terms of Use, we grant the Users a limited, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, revocable license to use the Interface for personal use until such time as the Terms of Use terminate or expire or the User’s right to use or access the Interface is terminated. 

The User must not reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, publicly perform, republish, download, store, or transmit any of the material on our Interface, except as follows:

  • The User’s computer may temporarily store copies of such materials in RAM incidental to the User’s accessing and viewing those materials. 
  • The User may store files that are automatically cached by the User’s web browser for display enhancement purposes. 
  • The User may print or download one copy of a reasonable number of pages of the Interface for its own personal, non-commercial use and not for further reproduction, publication, or distribution.

The User must not:

  • Modify copies of any materials from this Interface. 
  • Use any illustrations, photographs, video or audio sequences, or any graphics separately from the accompanying text. 
  • Delete or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary rights notices from copies of materials from the Interface.

If the User wishes to make any use of material on the Interface other than that set out in this section, it should address its request to: info@sirenmarkets.com

If the User prints, copies, modifies, downloads, or otherwise uses or provides any other person with access to any part of the Interface in breach of the Terms of Use, the User’s right to access the Interface will stop immediately and the User must, at our option, return or destroy any copies of the materials the User has made. No right, title, or interest in or to the Interface or any content on the Interface is transferred to the User, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved by the Company. Any use of the Interface not expressly permitted by these Terms of Use is a breach of these Terms of Use and may violate copyright, trademark, and other laws.

6. Trademarks

The Company name, the terms “Siren,” “Siren Markets,” “Siren.xyz,” and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are trademarks of the Company or its affiliates or licensors. You must not use such marks without the prior written permission of the Company; provided, however, User is hereby granted permission and license to use the terms “Siren,” “Siren Markets,” and “Siren.xyz,” and any related names (excluding the Company name), logos (excluding the Company logo), product and service names, designs, and slogans in any way that they see fit so long as such usage is not done in a way that: (1) is deceitful, fraudulent, or manipulative, (2) implies any relationship between user and the Company beyond that reasonably typical of the administrator of an interface and its users, or (3) to cause confusion in any way to gain crypto-assets of, or personal information about, another party other than that intended by the protocol (for example, you may not use the foregoing marks to execute phishing attacks, spearphishing attacks, social engineering, or in any way that may cause a party to transmit crypto-assets to an unintended recipient or to reveal private information, like a private key or password). All other names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans on the Interface are the trademarks of their respective owners.

Without limiting the foregoing, we have the right to cooperate fully with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity or other information of anyone using or accessing the Interface. THE USER WAIVES AND HOLDS HARMLESS THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSEES, AGENTS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS FROM ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN BY ANY OF THE FOREGOING PARTIES DURING, OR TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF, INVESTIGATIONS BY EITHER SUCH PARTIES OR LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES. 

However, we cannot review interactions or activities before they are executed through the Interface, and, given the nature of blockchain and smart contract activity, cannot ensure prompt removal or rectification of objectionable interactions or activities after they have been executed. Accordingly, we assume no liability for any action or inaction regarding transmissions, communications, transactions, blockchain operations, or content provided by any Participant or third party. We have no liability or responsibility to anyone for performance or nonperformance of the activities described in this section, nor for any harms or damages created by others’ interactions with any blockchain underlying the Interface.

9. Reliance on Information Posted

The information presented on or through the Interface is made available solely for general information purposes. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of this information. Users should not take or refrain from taking any action based on any information contained on the Interface or any other information available, including but not limited to community calls, social media posts, articles, links to third-party content, Discord communications, or tutorials. All community communications from contributors to the ecosystem around the Company are independent of the Company, and we will not have and do not assume any responsibility for their actions or omissions. Any reliance the User places on such information is strictly at the User’s own risk, and as is common in the blockchain space, the User is assuming a high amount of risk related to others or technical harms when operating via the Interface. We disclaim all liability and responsibility arising from any reliance placed on such materials by the User or any other visitor to the Interface, by anyone who may be informed of any of its contents, or by the actions (or omissions) of others interacting with any underlying blockchain. 

This Interface may include content provided by third parties, including materials provided by other users, bloggers, and third-party licensors, syndicators, aggregators, and/or reporting services.

11. Information About The User and The User’s Visits to the Interface

All information we collect on this Interface is subject to our Privacy Policy. By using the Interface, the User consents to all actions taken by us with respect to the User’s information in compliance with the Privacy Policy.

12. No Professional Advice

All information or content provided or displayed by the Interface is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as professional advice (including, without limitation, tax, legal, or financial advice). The User should not take, or refrain from taking, any action based on any information or content displayed or provided on the Interface. The User should seek independent professional advice from an individual licensed and qualified in the area appropriate for such before the User makes any financial, legal, or other decisions involving the Interface. The User acknowledges and agrees that, to the fullest extent permissible by law, it has not relied on the Company or any other Participant for any professional advice related to its use of the Interface or interactions with the Protocol.

13. WARRANTY DISCLAIMER

The User understands that we cannot and do not guarantee or warrant that files available for downloading from the internet or the Interface will be free of viruses or other destructive code. The User is responsible for implementing sufficient procedures and checkpoints to satisfy the User’s particular requirements for (1) an appropriate Web3 Utility; (2) anti-virus protection and accuracy of data input and output; and (3) maintaining a means external to our site for any reconstruction of any lost data. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY A DISTRIBUTED DENIAL-OF-SERVICE ATTACK, VIRUSES, OR OTHER TECHNOLOGICALLY HARMFUL MATERIAL THAT MAY INFECT THE USER’S COMPUTER EQUIPMENT, COMPUTER PROGRAMS, DATA, OR OTHER PROPRIETARY MATERIAL DUE TO THE USER’S USE OF THE INTERFACE OR ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE INTERFACE OR TO THE USER’S DOWNLOADING OF ANY MATERIAL POSTED ON IT, OR ON ANY WEBSITE LINKED TO IT. 

THE USER’S USE OF THE INTERFACE, ITS CONTENT, AND ANY OF ITS SERVICES IS AT THE USER’S SOLE RISK. THE INTERFACE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS’’ AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE, WE, NOR ANY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY, MAKES, AND WE EXPLICITLY DISCLAIM, ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND RELATED TO THE INTERFACE (AND THE PROTOCOL), WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING (WITHOUT LIMITATION) THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NEITHER THE COMPANY NOR ANY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY MAKES ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPLETENESS, SECURITY, RELIABILITY, QUALITY, ACCURACY, OR AVAILABILITY OF THE INTERFACE. THE COMPANY AND ANY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT: (1) ACCESS TO THE INTERFACE WILL BE CONTINUOUS, UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, WITHOUT DELAY, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE FROM DEFECTS; (2) THAT THE INFORMATION CONTAINED OR PRESENTED ON THE INTERFACE IS ACCURATE, RELIABLE, COMPLETE, CONCISE, CURRENT, OR RELEVANT; (3) THAT THE INTERFACE WILL BE FREE FROM DEFECTS, MALICIOUS SOFTWARE, ERRORS, PRIVATE, OR ANY OTHER HARMFUL ELEMENTS, OR THAT ANY OF SUCH WILL BE CORRECTED; OR THAT THE INTERFACE WILL MEET THE USER’S EXPECTATIONS.

WE DO NOT ENDORSE, GUARANTEE, OR ASSUME ANY LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY CONTENT, ADVERTISEMENTS, OFFERS, STATEMENTS, OR ACTIONS BY ANY THIRD PARTY EITHER REGARDING OR THROUGH THE INTERFACE. 

THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY WARRANTIES THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

15. Nature of Blockchain; Assumption of Risk; Waiver of Claims

Blockchains and smart contracts are still emerging technologies that carry a high amount of foreseeable and unforeseeable risk from security, financial, technical, political, social, and personal safety standpoints. The mere access to and interaction with blockchains and smart contracts requires a high degree of skill and knowledge to operate with a relative degree of safety and proficiency. Crypto-assets are highly volatile in nature due to many diverse factors, including (without limitation) use and adoption, speculation, manipulation, technology, security, and legal and regulatory developments and application. Further, the speed and cost of transacting with cryptographic technologies (such as blockchains) is variable and highly volatile. Moreover, the transparent nature of many blockchains means that any interactions the User has with the Protocol may be publicly visible and readable in human form.

By accessing and using the Interface, the User acknowledges the foregoing and agrees and represents that it understands such and other risks involved with blockchains and the Protocol. The User further represents that it has all knowledge sufficient to work, and is informed of all foreseeable risks, and the possibility of unforeseeable risks, associated with blockchains, crypto-assets, crypto mining, Web3 Utilities, smart contracts, and the Protocol. The User further acknowledges that any crypto-assets the User places or uses within the Protocol may increase or decrease in value rapidly while they are involved with the Protocol, or be obtained by other parties or otherwise lost in ways the User may or may not currently foresee (possibly to the User’s severe harm or detriment). The User agrees that we are not responsible for any of these (or related) risks, do not own or control the Protocol, and cannot be held liable for any resulting harms, damages, or losses incurred by or against the User experiences while accessing or using the Interface. Accordingly, the User acknowledges the foregoing, represents its understanding of the foregoing, and agrees to assume full responsibility for all of the risks of accessing and using the Interface and interacting with the Protocol, whether mentioned in this section or otherwise. The User further expressly waives and releases us from any and all liability, claims, causes of action, or damages arising from or in any way relating to the User’s use of the Interface and the User’s interaction with the Protocol.

16. No Fiduciary Duties

This Agreement, and the provision of the Interface, is not intended to create any fiduciary duties between us and the User or any third-party. To the fullest extent permissible by law, the User agrees that neither the User’s use of the Interface or the Protocol causes us or any Participant to owe fiduciary duties or liabilities to the User or any third party. Further, the User acknowledges and agrees to the fullest extent such duties or liabilities are afforded by law or by equity, those duties and liabilities are hereby irrevocably disclaimed, waived, and eliminated, and that we and any other Participant shall be held completely harmless in relation thereof. The User further agrees that the only duties and obligations that we or any Participant owes the User, and the only rights the User has related to this Agreement or the User’s use of the Interface or the Protocol, are those set out expressly in this Agreement.

17. Provisions Specific to Certain Types of Participants

The Interface and the Protocol enable Participants to serve in certain capacities or perform certain functionalities when interacting with the Protocol. In order to serve in some of these capacities or otherwise perform these functionalities, the User may have been required to enter into other agreements or documents, each of which is hereby incorporated for reference. The types of Protocol capacities or functionalities available to Participants, and the provisions and restrictions applicable to Participates serving in such capacities or performing such functionalities, via the Interface include the following, and the User expressly agrees to be bound by any such applicable provisions and restrictions if it serves in any such capacity and/or performs any such functionality:

If the User is an SI Token Holder:

There exist certain risks or harms related to staking crypto-assets generally and staking SI tokens (“SI(s)”) specifically, including (without limitation) risks of harm related to lock-ups, vulnerabilities in underlying smart contracts, crypto-asset price volatility, private key compromise or loss, blockchain transaction fees, or user-errors in crypto-asset transmission. The User also represents its understanding that certain risks or harms exist related to governance, including the possibility of vote manipulation or voter collusion, lack of notice related to ongoing voting matters, fixed periods where an SI holder may vote, the failure for SI holders to collectively achieve consensus to vote or to reach a conclusion, and other similar governance-related risks. The User acknowledges the foregoing, represents its understanding of the foregoing, and agrees to assume full responsibility for all of the risks related to its status as an SI holder (including, without limitation, the User’s use of the Interface to perform certain SI holder functionalities), whether mentioned in this paragraph or otherwise. 

If the User is a Liquidity Provider

Liquidity Providers serve as option writers in the Protocol, and as such carry the primary risk of options being exercised.  This risk is inherent in the activities of the Liquidity Provider and can only be managed through diversification and strategic writing of options.  The User agrees not to engage in any harmful or fraudulent activity related to its status as a Liquidity Provider, or to engage in any behaviors related to its use of Liquidity Provider functionalities that are illegal or prohibited by any applicable law or regulation. The User further agrees to (to the fullest extent permissible by law) to waive any liability, and to otherwise hold harmless, any other Participant for any harms or damages not caused by that party’s gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct. The User re-acknowledges and reasserts its agreement that its use of the Interface does not create or impose any fiduciary duties between the User and us nor any other Participant.  The User agrees not to use or access the Interface in any way that would violate those terms and provisions, including (without limitation) manipulating the Interface in any way that may allow it to defraud or manipulate any other Participants or otherwise engage in illegal or deceitful conduct.

18. Compliance

The Interface may not be available, appropriate, or legal for use in some jurisdictions. By accessing or using the Interface, the User agrees that it is solely and entirely responsible for compliance with all laws and regulations under any jurisdiction applicable to the User. This includes responsibility for taxes—the User is solely responsible for any and all taxes or assessments now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any government authority or regulator associated with the User’s use of the Interface.

19. Links from the Interface

If the Interface may contain links to other sites and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for convenience only. This includes links contained in advertisements, including banner advertisements and sponsored links. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources, and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from the User’s use of them. If the User decides to access any of the third-party websites linked to this Interface, the User does so entirely at its own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such websites.

20. Indemnification

The User agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates, licensors, agents, and service providers, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns from and against any claims (including claims by any government agency or body), liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (1) the User’s violation of these Terms of Use; (2) the User’s use of the Interface, including, but not limited to, the User’s interactions with the Protocol, use of or reliance on the Interface’s content, services, and products other than as expressly authorized in these Terms of Use; (3) the User’s use or reliance on of any information obtained from the Interface; or (4) any other party’s access and use of the Interface or Protocol with the User’s assistance or by using any device or account that the User owns or control.

21. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

All matters relating to the Interface and these Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the British Virgin Islands without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.

22. Arbitration; Class Arbitration Waiver

Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of, relating to or in connection with the User’s use of the Interface or the Protocol, or in connection with this Agreement, including disputes arising from or concerning their interpretation, violation, invalidity, non-performance, or termination, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution under its International Dispute Resolution Procedures. The tribunal shall have the power to rule on any challenge to its own jurisdiction or to the validity or enforceability of any portion of the agreement to arbitrate. The parties agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and that these Terms of Use do not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative arbitration proceeding. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. In the event the prohibition on class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of the arbitration agreement will remain in force.

23. Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver

Without limiting Section 22, any disputes related to User’s use of the Interface or the Protocol must be brought in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff in or member of any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or other representative proceeding. This provision applies to any court action, action in front of a mediator, or class arbitration. The Parties agree to waive the right to demand a trial by jury.

ALL USERS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE USER AND COMPANY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT BOTH PARTIES ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. To opt-out of arbitration, within 30 days of your use of the Interface, you must notify us in writing of your intent to opt-out of the Arbitration provisions by providing your first and last name and clear statement of your intent to opt out.  The written intent to opt-out should be sent to info@sirenmarkets.com.

24. Injunctive Relief Waiver

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the User agrees that the User will not be permitted to obtain an injunction or other equitable relief of any kind, such as any court action that may prevent the development or operation of the Interface.

25. Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM THE USER MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR ITS USE OF THE INTERFACE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

26. Waiver and Severability

No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. 

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

27. Entire Agreement

The Terms of Use and any documented incorporated by reference herein constitute the sole and entire agreement between the User and the Company regarding the Interface and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Interface.

28. Comments and Concerns

All feedback, comments, requests for technical support, and other communications relating to the Interface should be directed to: info@sirenmarkets.com.
