3. NFT License #1.

3.1. Some Digital Content sold on the Platform may include NFTs. When selling or purchasing an NFT, you agree and understand what characteristics NFTs have and how the following terms apply to their sale. An NFT is a digital tool that can represent real-world objects such as photographs, videos, writings, or music. NFTs are usually built using similar technology to digital currencies. But while digital currencies are usually fungible, NFTs usually are not. Each NFT is coded into a blockchain, and contains built-in methods for evidence of authentication and proof of ownership. When you buy an NFT, the terms of your purchase, and the rights you actually purchase and own, may be limited by the terms or technology of the underlying NFT. Some NFTs may include a right to redeem the physical item to which the NFT relates to. In such instances, once the NFT has been redeemed, the NFT will remain in circulation, but the redemption right will be terminated. It is up to you to confirm your understanding of what you are selling or buying and the license you are receiving which is determined by the Seller in its sole discretion and if no custom license is provided by Seller to Buyer at the point of sale for an item, such as an NFT and its related Content, then the NFT Owner Content License (“NOCL”) provided below shall apply as between Seller and Buyer. The license to any purchased NFT is a matter between the Seller and Buyer, and Mason is not a party to the licensing transaction. All licenses and all ownership interests in any Digital Content, such as NFTs, shall pass directly from Seller to Buyer.

3.2. You further understand that blockchain transactions are usually not reversible. You understand that NFTs and other Digital Content may only exist by virtue of the ownership record maintained on a blockchain, and further that smart contracts are conducted and occur on decentralized ledgers. Mason has no control over and makes no guarantees or promises with respect to such smart contracts or the functioning of such blockchain or the persistence, or lack thereof, of the NFT or related content. In cases where a transaction involving Digital Content is revealed to be fraudulent or illegal or an infringement, or a Buyer or Seller acts fraudulently or illegally or in an infringing manner, then the defrauded or injured Buyer/Seller shall have no recourse against Mason, but solely against the respective Seller/Buyer.

14.1 Credits: We may charge credits to Mint NFTs on the blockchain. Credits added to your account do not expire and are non-refundable and non-transferable, except as provided by applicable law and herein. Credits do not constitute a personal property right, have no value outside of the Services, and can only be used to purchase Services on the Platform. Mason reserves the right to change the Subscription and credit offerings from time to time.

14.2 Subscription. In addition to purchasing Credits to pay for Services, you must also purchase a Mason subscription, which entitles you to certain exclusive benefits and services that cannot be purchased with credits (“Subscription”). Such benefits may include, but are not limited to, opportunities to earn virtual assets that can be used on the Platform, access to special design features like icons or other indicators, exclusive art tiers, and/or accelerated access to certain Services. The current offerings of Services and benefits offered through a Subscription are listed on the Mason website/Platform, and Mason reserves the right to change the Subscription offerings from time to time. You may purchase a term-based Subscription for the advertised price, to be paid in full at the commencement of the term. Payment for a Subscription will be charged to your linked financial account at the point of purchase, or through your wallet if using cryptocurrency, and Subscriptions will automatically renew immediately prior to the end of the applicable term, unless and until you cancel the Subscription.To cancel your Subscription contact us at [email protected]. Subscriptions are non-transferable and a cancellation of an active subscription(s) will become effective after at the end of the then-current Subscription period. You agree that all sales of subscriptions are final and we will not refund any transaction once it has been made. Any credit balance remaining in your account upon the cancellation of your subscription does not reflect any stored value and cannot be exchanged for real money, real goods, or real services from Mason or anyone else.

14.3 Payment processing services. Payments on Mason are processed via Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). By agreeing to these Terms of Service and/or continuing to utilize the Platform, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, which may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of Mason enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide Stripe with accurate and complete information. Mason does not access or share the Personal Data you provide to Stripe.

14.4 When you provide payment information for purchasing credits, a Subscription, or other Services to Stripe, you represent that you are the authorized user of the card, PIN, key or account associated with that payment, and you authorize Stripe to charge your credit card or to process your payment for any credits, a Subscription, or Services purchased, or other fees incurred by you. You agree to notify Stripe promptly of any changes to your credit card account number, its expiration date, and/or your billing address, and you agree to notify Mason promptly if your credit card or payment account expires or is canceled for any reason. As the account holder and/or User, you are responsible for all charges incurred, including applicable taxes, and all purchases made by you or anyone that uses your account, including, but not limited to, your family or friends.

14.7 Fees: Minting, buying, selling, and/or transferring NFTs may be subject to fees, commissions, and other charges (“Fees”). At the time of this document’s creation, Ethereum, Polygon, and other blockchains require the payment of a transaction fee for every transaction that occurs on their individual networks (“Gas Fee”). The Gas Fee funds the network of computers that run decentralized networks. Collection Owners may collect primary sale royalties directly from Mason if you sell on or through the Mason Platform, but may not receive the royalties if you sell on another public marketplace. Marketplaces other than Mason have no affiliation with Mason. Rather the affiliation is between the User and the public marketplace itself and the User should look at the terms of service and privacy policies of these marketplaces. You acknowledge and agree that Mason may collect a 10% fee on primary sales, even on other public marketplaces, to be paid by the seller and You agree that Mason is not required to pay Users out of this fee. This fee helps Us pay for resources that help us keep information secure, pay for gas fees, and help us run the Platform.
