Legal Agreement for Digital Art Collections

Last Updated: December 2025

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

These terms form a legally binding contract. By purchasing any digital artwork, you acknowledge you have read, understood, and agree to these terms.

You confirm you have read the Legal Disclaimer with all warnings before purchasing.

1. Agreement to Terms

1.1 Agreement to Terms

By accessing this website, you confirm you are 18+ years old (or legal age in your jurisdiction). Purchasing Digital Artworks occurs exclusively on third-party marketplace platforms like OpenSea. You are responsible for reviewing and complying with their terms of service and applicable laws. You confirm that:

  • You are 18+ years old (or legal age in your jurisdiction)
  • You understand these are digital art collectibles only
  • You accept all risks associated with blockchain technology
  • You comply with all local laws regarding digital assets

2. What You Are Purchasing

2.1 Nature of Digital Artworks

You are purchasing a unique, collectible piece of Digital Artwork (an "NFT"). You are not purchasing a security, investment product, membership, or any form of financial instrument.

2.2 Technical Infrastructure

The Crystal Jewel Gems collection operates on an ERC-721 smart contract deployed via OpenSea's Creator Studio.

  • Contract Address: 0x7f0c0b4a43e75bed156a2397628cdb23d3598730
  • Royalty Implementation: The contract includes ERC721-C standard royalty support (3% on secondary sales), which is enforced on marketplaces that support this standard.

Important Legal Distinction

The smart contract governs ONLY the transfer of token ownership on the blockchain. It does NOT contain any intellectual property rights, usage permissions, or licensing terms. All such rights are defined exclusively in these Terms of Use and the Copyright Notice.

2.3 Collection Specifications

The Crystal Jewel Gems collection consists of a maximum of 7,963 unique digital artworks. The artworks are available for minting during a limited period of 6 months, starting on December 17, 2025 and ending on June 17, 2026. Only artworks minted during this period will become part of the permanent collection.
