As with any asset, the value of Digital Assets can fluctuate significantly and there is a material risk of economic loss when buying, selling, holding or investing in Digital Assets. You should therefore consider whether trading or holding Digital Assets is suitable for you in light of your financial circumstances.
Further information on the risks associated with using the Apexmynt Services is set out in our Risk Warning, which may be updated from time to time. You should read the Risk Warning carefully, however it does not explain all of the risks that may arise, or how such risks relate to your personal circumstances.

It is your responsibility to determine whether any investment, investment strategy or related transaction is appropriate for you according to your personal investment objectives, financial circumstances and risk tolerance and you are responsible for any associated loss or liability. We do not recommend that any Digital Asset should be bought, earned, sold or held by you. Before making the decision to buy, sell or hold any Digital Asset, you should conduct your own due diligence and consult your financial advisor. We are not responsible for the decisions you make to buy, earn, sell or hold Digital Assets based on the information provided by us, including any losses you incur arising from those decisions.

INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR Apexmynt ACCOUNT

and the Platform. This may be a Apexmynt Account for an individual user, or a Corporate Apexmynt Account where
the user is a corporation, entity or other organisation.
All Apexmynt Accounts are provided at our absolute discretion. We reserve the right to refuse any application
for a Apexmynt Account without reason or to limit the number of Apexmynt Accounts that you may hold.
7.2. Sole benefit. By opening a Apexmynt Account you agree that:
a. where you are an individual user, you will use your Apexmynt Account only for yourself, and not on behalf
of
any third party, unless you have obtained our prior written consent to do so; and
b. where you are a corporate user, your Permitted Users will use the Corporate Apexmynt Account only for your
benefit, and not on behalf of any third party, unless our prior written consent has been obtained.
Additionally, you will not offer direct market access to Apexmynt.com to any other party, including through
the
use of a sub-account, unless and until such other party has completed identity verification deemed appropriate
by Apexmynt and has separately onboarded onto the Platform. Any other party so verified shall be considered a
“Permitted User” as that term is described herein. For avoidance of doubt, any entity or individual using a
Apexmynt Sub-Account must be separately verified to be considered a “Permitted User” and to be permitted to
use
the Apexmynt Services.
You are fully responsible for all activity that occurs under your Apexmynt Account.
7.3. Identity verification. You will need to comply with our identity verification procedures before you are
permitted to open a Apexmynt Account and access and use the Apexmynt Services, whether independently or
through
a third-party service, by providing us with certain information about yourself and, where relevant, all of
your Permitted Users. All information that you provide must be complete, accurate and truthful. You must
update this information whenever it changes.
You authorise us to make inquiries, whether directly or through third parties, that we consider necessary to
verify your identity, and that of any Permitted Users, or protect you and/or us against fraud, money
laundering, terrorist financing or other financial crime, and to take any action we deem necessary based on
the results of such inquiries.
When we carry out inquiries, you acknowledge and understand that your personal data, and that of any Permitted
Users, may be disclosed to identity verification, compliance data recordation, credit reference, fraud
prevention, or financial crime agencies and that these agencies may respond to our inquiries in
full.
You can review our Privacy Notice to have more information about how we process your personal data.
7.4. Enhanced due diligence. We may also require you to comply with our enhanced due diligence procedures by
submitting additional information about yourself, your business or your Permitted Users, providing additional
records or documentation, or having face to face meetings with representatives of Apexmynt.
7.5. Records. We keep your personal data to enable your continued use of Apexmynt Services, for as long as it
is required in order to fulfil the relevant purposes described in this Privacy Notice, and as may be required
by law such as for tax and accounting purposes, compliance with anti-money laundering laws, or as otherwise
communicated to you. Please review our Privacy Notice for more information on how we collect
and use your
personal data relating to the use and performance of our Sites and the Apexmynt Services.
7.6. Sub-Accounts. At our discretion, you may create and access a Apexmynt Sub-Account. Each natural person
associated with a Apexmynt Sub-Account is subject to the identity verification requirements set out in this
clause 7. Only one natural person or corporate entity may be associated with a particular Apexmynt
Sub-Account.
8. Information requests
8.1. When we may request information. We may require information from you at any time for the purposes of
complying with any Applicable Law, identity verification requirements, or in connection with the detection of
money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud, or any other financial crime, or for any other valid reason. You
agree to provide us with any such information we request and permit us to keep a record of the information for
the lifetime of your Apexmynt Account as long as it is required to fulfil their intended purposes, or such
other period as prescribed by Applicable Law.
8.2. What happens when you provide information. Your access to your Apexmynt Account and the Transaction
limits
that apply to your use of the Apexmynt Services may be altered as a result of information collected about you
on an ongoing basis. If there is a reasonable suspicion that any information provided by you is wrong,
untruthful, outdated, or incomplete, we may send you a notice to request corrections, remove relevant
information, or do such other things that we consider necessary to ensure that the information provided by you
is true and correct.
8.3. If you fail to provide any requested information. You must comply with any information request we send to
you. If you decline to provide the requested information, or otherwise do not comply in a timely manner, we
reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to your Apexmynt Account, or to all or part of the
Apexmynt Services immediately, without notice.
9. Accessing your Apexmynt Account
9.1. Access. To access your Apexmynt Account you or, where relevant, your Permitted Users, must have the
necessary equipment (such as a computer or smartphone) and access to the internet. Your Apexmynt Account can
be
accessed directly using the Platform or by such other mode of access (including APIs) as we may prescribe. You
are only permitted to access your Apexmynt Account by using the Access IDs we provide to you or your Permitted
Users for such purposes. We may require multi-factor authentication to keep your Apexmynt Account safe and
secure.
The use of the Platform and other access methods may be subject to such additional terms as we communicate to
you.
9.2. Restricting access to third parties. You must ensure that any Apexmynt Account(s) registered under your
name will not be used by any person other than yourself or, with respect to Corporate Apexmynt Accounts, your
Permitted Users, other than in accordance with these Terms.
10. Account information and Transaction records
10.1. Your Account History. You will be able to access your Account History on the Platform. You must review
your Account History carefully and let us know if you see any entries or Transactions that you do not
recognise or you think are incorrect within fourteen (14) calendar days of the date that your Account History
is provided or made available to you.
10.2. Errors. We may rectify any error in your Account History at any time, and reserve the right to void,
cancel or reverse any Transaction involving or deriving from a Manifest Error or to amend the details of such
Transaction to reflect what we reasonably consider to be the correct or fair details of such a Transaction.
You acknowledge and agree that where you execute any Transaction with Improper Intent and/or in the case of
Manifest Error, Apexmynt is authorised by you (without any payment or penalty or liability due by Apexmynt and
provided that such action is in compliance with Applicable Law) to either:
a. cancel/void such Transaction and treat such Transaction as if they had never been entered into;
or
b. amend the price(s) of such Transaction (upon notice from Apexmynt to you of the amended price(s)) to
reflect
the prevailing market price(s) as at the relevant time, as determined by Apexmynt by reference to an available
source for fair market pricing;
If Apexmynt cancels a Transaction pursuant to the rights referred herein, Apexmynt will reverse any transfers
of
Digital Assets that have been made to and/or from your Apexmynt Account in connection with such Transaction as
if that Transaction had never taken place.
If Apexmynt amends a Transaction pursuant to the rights referred herein, Apexmynt will confirm the details of
the amended terms of the Transaction to you through an agreed communication channel and will affect such
transfers of Digital Assets to and/or from your Apexmynt Account as are required to reflect the terms of the
amended Transaction.
You acknowledge and agree that you shall be solely responsible for your own transactions with any third
parties that may have been entered into in connection with or reliance on any Transaction(s) that may be
subject to any cancellation/amendment pursuant to Apexmynt's rights herein.
10.3. Information sharing. We may be required under Applicable Law to share information about your Apexmynt
Account and Account History with third parties. You acknowledge and agree that we are entitled to disclose
such information. For more information about how we process your personal data you can review our Privacy Notice .
USING YOUR ACCOUNT
11. Instructions
11.1. Giving Instructions. You must ensure that any Instruction submitted is complete and accurate. We are not
required to verify the accuracy, authenticity or validity of any Instruction and will not monitor or reject
Instructions on the basis that they are, or appear to be, duplicates. However, if we are in doubt as to the
accuracy, authenticity or validity of an Instruction, we may refuse to act upon or defer acting upon any
Instruction, or seek further information with respect to the Instruction.
Instructions are irrevocable and therefore once an Instruction has been submitted you, or your Permitted
Users, have no right to rescind or withdraw it without our written consent. Your Instruction is not deemed to
be received by us until it has been received by our server. Our record of all Instructions will be conclusive
and binding on you for all purposes.
11.2. Acting on your Instructions. By submitting an Instruction you or your Permitted Users are authorising us
to initiate the Transaction on your Apexmynt Account. We are therefore authorised to credit or debit (or
provide settlement information to third parties for the purposes of the third party crediting or debiting)
your Digital Assets from your Apexmynt Account in accordance with your Instruction. If you have insufficient
Digital Assets or Fiat Currency in your Apexmynt Account to effect the Transaction (i.e. less than the
required
amount to settle the Transaction and to pay all the fees associated with the Transaction), then we have the
right to refuse to effect any Transaction. Apexmynt may also refuse to act on instructions to the extent
permitted by these Terms. It is your responsibility to hold sufficient Digital Assets or Fiat Currency
credited in your Apexmynt Account.
11.3. Protection of Instructions. You are aware that Instructions and information transmitted on the Platform
or by email are generally transmitted via the internet and may be routed via public, transnational
installations which are not specifically protected. We cannot guarantee that the Instructions and information
transmitted will be completely protected against unauthorised access, and you accept the associated
risks.
11.4. Withdrawals. Subject to these Terms and any applicable Product Terms, and provided that you have
sufficient balance on your Apexmynt Account and the relevant Digital Assets are not on hold in your Apexmynt
Account in connection with any Apexmynt Service, you may give Instructions to Apexmynt to transfer Digital
Assets to an external wallet address by submitting a withdrawal request on the Platform. Upon receipt of the
withdrawal request, Apexmynt will: (i) deduct your Apexmynt Account balance; and (ii) initiate an on-chain
transfer to an external wallet designated by you. Apexmynt may not process a withdrawal request if, in our
reasonable opinion, we consider that Applicable Law prevents the execution of the relevant withdrawal.
Apexmynt
may also suspend withdrawals at such time deemed appropriate by Apexmynt to resolve any incidents on the
Platform. Once such incidents have been resolved, Apexmynt will resume withdrawals.
12. Transactions
12.1. Entering into Transactions. You may enter into Transactions directly with us, or directly with other
users, which may or may not be facilitated by us.
We do not represent or warrant that any Transaction will be completed successfully or within a specific time
period.
12.2. Unauthorised Transactions. You are responsible for the control and use of your Apexmynt Account. As
such,
we will assume that you, or a Permitted User, have authorised any Instruction sent from your Apexmynt Account
unless we are notified otherwise. It is important that you monitor your Account History to ensure any
unauthorised or suspicious activity on your Apexmynt Account is identified and notified to us as soon as
possible. We are not responsible for any claim or losses resulting from a Transaction executed as a result of
an unauthorised Instruction unless you have notified us in accordance with this clause and it is confirmed by
our internal investigation that you, or a Permitted User, have not authorised the Instruction in any way, even
by mistake, negligence, error or as a consequence of a fraud and it is proven that the unauthorized
Instruction is solely due to a technical issue attributable to Apexmynt.
12.3. Retention of Transaction information. To facilitate compliance with global industry standards for data
retention, you agree to permit us (but agree to not require us) to keep a record of all Transaction
information for the lifetime of your Apexmynt Account as long as it is required to fulfil their intended
purposes, or such other period as prescribed by Applicable Law. Please review our Privacy Notice for more
information on how we collect and use data relating to the use and performance of our Sites and the Apexmynt
Services.
13. Material interests and conflicts
13.1. Apexmynt group. You understand that Apexmynt is a member of a group of companies which is involved in
activities connected with Digital Assets.
13.2. Nature of our duties. You understand and agree that neither your relationship with us nor any Apexmynt
Service we provide to you, nor any other matter, will give rise to any duties on our part or on the part of
any Apexmynt Affiliate, whether legal, equitable, fiduciary in nature, save as are expressly set out in these
terms. In particular, we and any Apexmynt Affiliate may from time to time act in more than one capacity, and
in
those capacities we may receive fees or commissions from more than one user (including you). You agree that we
may act in such capacities and provide any other Apexmynt Services or carry out any business with or for you,
any Apexmynt Affiliate or any other user.
13.3. Material interests. You understand and agree that neither we nor any Apexmynt Affiliate will be required
to: (1) have regard to any information known to us, or to any Apexmynt Affiliate, which is a material
interest;
(2) disclose any such information to you; or (3) use any such information for your benefit. You further
acknowledge that from time to time we may receive general market information in the course of providing
Apexmynt Services to you, which we may use in the ordinary course of our business.
13.4. Conflicts of interest. We have established and maintain effective organisational and administrative
arrangements with a view to taking all appropriate steps to identify and manage conflicts of interest between
us and our users and relevant third parties, so as to prevent conflicts of interest from adversely affecting
the interests of our users. In cases where such organisational and administrative arrangements are not
sufficient to ensure that the risks of damage to your interests will be prevented, we will inform you of the
nature and/or sources of the relevant conflicts of interest and the steps taken to mitigate those risks in
order to allow you to make an informed decision as to whether to continue to transact with us. We reserve the
right at all times to decline to act for you where we are not able to manage a conflict of interest in any
other way.
14. Transaction limits
14.1. Your Transaction limits. Your Apexmynt Account may be subject to a limit on:
a. the amount or volume of Transactions you may undertake in connection with your Apexmynt Account;
and/or
b. the amount or value of Fiat Currency or Digital Assets you may transfer into or out of your Apexmynt
Account,
in each case in a given period (e.g. daily). Any applicable limits are shown in your Apexmynt Account.
14.2. Changes to your Transaction limits. We reserve the right to change any Transaction limit that applies to
your Apexmynt Account at any time at our absolute discretion. It may also be possible for you to request a
change in your limits. Any change will be made in our absolute discretion and will be subject to any further
conditions that we deem necessary.
15. Supported Digital Assets
15.1. Supported Digital Assets. The Apexmynt Services are only available in connection with Supported Digital
Assets, which may change from time to time. A list of the Supported Digital Assets is published on our
Website. We may remove or suspend one or more Digital Assets from the list of Supported Digital Assets and we
will use reasonable commercial efforts to notify you in advance. Meaning that you will no longer be able to
access such Digital Assets as part of the Apexmynt Services and will only be permitted to withdraw the Digital
Assets from your Apexmynt Account. If Digital Assets that are no longer Supported Digital Assets remain in
your
Apexmynt Account beyond a specified period notified to you, Apexmynt may in its reasonable discretion convert
such Digital Assets into a different type of Digital Asset that is a stablecoin. Apexmynt shall notify you in
advance of any conversion and you may withdraw such Digital Assets within a reasonable period as specified by
Apexmynt to you, prior to their conversion into stablecoins.
We assume no liability in connection with any attempt to use your Apexmynt Account for Digital Assets that we
do not support nor for the conversion to a different type of Digital Asset, as described in this
clause.
15.2. Forks. We may temporarily suspend any Apexmynt Services in relation to a particular Digital Asset while
we determine whether or not to support a Fork. We are under no obligation to support a Fork of a Digital Asset
that you hold in your Apexmynt Account, regardless of whether any resulting version of such Forked Digital
Asset is a Dominant Digital Asset or not. If we elect to support a Fork of a Digital Asset, we will make a
public announcement through our Website or by such other means as we may deem appropriate.
You acknowledge that we have no control over, nor do we have the ability to influence, the creation or
implementation of a Fork. We can provide no assurances about the security, functionality or supply of any
Digital Asset, including both the new Dominant Digital Asset or other Digital Assets subject to the relevant
Fork. You may not be able to trade the Forked Digital Assets on the Platform and you may lose any value
associated with the relevant Digital Assets.
15.3. Backed Digital Assets. We may from time to time support Digital Assets that purport to be backed by or
otherwise tied or pegged in value to another asset, including Digital Assets, Fiat Currency or commodities
such as silver or gold (“Backed Digital Assets”). You agree that you have read, understood and accepted all of
the terms and conditions and risks associated with each particular Backed Digital Asset before entering into
any Transaction relating to that Backed Digital Asset. We have no obligation to purchase, repurchase or effect
or facilitate the redemption of your Backed Digital Assets. We reserve the right to change, suspend, or
discontinue any service in relation to any Backed Digital Asset. We make no representation as to whether any
particular Backed Digital Asset will hold its value as against any asset, nor as to the amount or quality of
reserves or collateral held by each issuer or any third party in relation to any Backed Digital
Asset.
16. Account security
16.1. Your responsibility. You are responsible for taking appropriate action to protect your hardware and data
from viruses and malicious software, and any inappropriate material. Except as provided by Applicable Law, you
are responsible for backing up and maintaining duplicate copies of any information you store or transfer
through the Apexmynt Services. We are not responsible for any claim or losses resulting from your failure to
comply with this clause.
16.2. Security measures. At all times, you and any Permitted Users shall maintain adequate security and
control of all of your Access IDs. You are responsible for taking the necessary security measures (or ensuring
that your Permitted Users take such measures) to protect your Apexmynt Account and to keep your Access ID
secure, including by:
a. strictly abiding by all of our mechanisms or procedures;
b. creating a strong password and maintaining security and control of your Access IDs;
c. keeping the Email Account and telephone number provided to us up to date in order to receive any notices or
alerts that we may send you;
d. never allowing remote access or sharing your computer and/or computer screen with someone else when you are
logged on to your Apexmynt Account;
e. remembering that under no circumstances will we ask you to share your passwords or 2-factor authentication
codes; and
f. logging out from the Sites or the Platform at the end of each visit.
You must keep the Email Account and Access IDs secure against any attacks and unauthorised access. You must
notify us immediately if you have knowledge or have reason for suspecting that the security of your Email
Account, or that of a Permitted User, has been compromised or if there has been any unauthorised use of your
or any Permitted User's Email Account.
16.3. Monitoring your Account History. It is important that you monitor your Account History to ensure any
unauthorised or suspicious activity on your Apexmynt Account is identified and notified to us as soon as
possible. You acknowledge that any Security Breach may result in unauthorised access to your Apexmynt Account
by third parties and the loss or theft of any Digital Assets and/or funds held in your Apexmynt Account and
any
associated accounts, including your linked bank account(s) and credit card(s).
16.4. If you suspect a Security Breach. If you suspect a Security Breach, you must ensure that:
a. we are notified immediately using the details set out in clause 3.1 and continue to be provided with
accurate and up to date information throughout the duration of the Security Breach;
b. your Apexmynt Account is immediately locked via the disable account function on the Platform or via any
other method as may be prescribed by us from time to time; and
c. you take any other steps that we may reasonably require to reduce, manage or report any Security Breach.
We reserve the right to request, and you agree to provide, any and all information and documents we deem
relevant or necessary in connection with an actual or suspected Security Breach, and may provide such
information to any third party that we deem necessary in order to resolve any Security Breach.

19. Closing your Apexmynt Account
19.1. Your right to close your Apexmynt Account. You may terminate your Apexmynt Account at any time by
following the account termination procedures as prescribed by us from time to time. You will not be charged
for terminating your Apexmynt Account, although you will be required to pay any outstanding amounts owed to
us.
You authorise us to cancel or suspend any pending transactions at the time of cancellation, and to deduct any
outstanding amounts that you owe us from your Apexmynt Account.
In certain cases, you may not be able to close your Apexmynt Account, including where:
a. you are trying to evade an investigation by relevant authorities;

required to withdraw all Digital Assets held in your Apexmynt Account. In the event that you fail to withdraw
your Digital Assets, or if you have not accessed your Apexmynt Account for a continuous period of 90 days,
will
send you notice of our intention to treat your account as dormant.
19.3. What happens when your account becomes dormant. If you do not respond to the notice in clause 19.2
within 30 days, we may:
a. mark your Apexmynt Account as a dormant account;
b. convert the Digital Assets to a different type of Digital Asset. In doing so, we will not be liable for any
loss of profit, tax obligations or any other loss, damage or expense incurred by you resulting from such
conversion;
c. transfer such dormant account and/or any Digital Assets held in that account to any third party (including,
without limitation, another Apexmynt Affiliate, any third-party custodian or an isolated wallet) if we
consider
it is reasonably necessary to do so. If this happens, you have the right to retrieve your Digital Assets,
subject to satisfying our (or the relevant third party's) reasonable verification requirements and any other
applicable terms and conditions;
d. adjust your dormant account such that you will receive a contractual claim on the quantity and type of
Digital Assets, which were held on your Apexmynt Account before being converted into a dormant
account;

Apexmynt Affiliate or any third party, with such fee to be withdrawn directly from the dormant account on a
monthly basis; and

otherwise have agreed to pay, under the applicable Product Terms, to your dormant account in relation to the
Digital Assets credited to it.

Account. Where we place a hold on some or all of any Digital Assets or Fiat Currencies held in your Apexmynt
Account, or on your entire Apexmynt Account, we may continue such hold until such time as evidence, acceptable
to us, proves that you are entitled to possession of the Digital Assets and/or Fiat Currency held in your

Digital Assets and/or Fiat Currency held in your Apexmynt Account.

RESOLVING DISPUTES: FORUM, ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION WAIVER
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this section will deprive you of any mandatory legal right from which
you benefit under Applicable Law.
31. Notice of Claim and Dispute Resolution Period
31.1. Please contact Apexmynt first if you have any concerns with the Services. Apexmynt wants to address your
concerns without resorting to formal legal proceedings, if possible. A ticket number will be assigned to you
if your concerns cannot be addressed to your satisfaction at first instance. The issuance of the ticket number
commences the internal dispute resolution procedure. Apexmynt will attempt to resolve the dispute internally
as
soon as possible. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute (which discussions shall
remain confidential and be subject to applicable rules protecting settlement discussions from use as evidence
in any legal proceeding).
31.2. In the event the dispute cannot be resolved satisfactorily, and you wish to assert a Claim against
Apexmynt, then you agree to set forth the basis of such Claim in writing in a “Notice of Claim,” as a form of
prior notice to Apexmynt. The Notice of Claim must (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute,
(2) set forth the specific relief sought, (3) provide the original ticket number, and (4) include your custody
account email. The Notice of Claim should be submitted to the following web address:
https://www.apexmynt..com/chat. After you have
provided
the Notice of Claim to Apexmynt, the dispute
referenced in the Notice of Claim may be submitted by either Apexmynt or you to arbitration in accordance with
the below clause (Agreement to Arbitrate).
31.3. For the avoidance of doubt, the submission of a dispute to Apexmynt for resolution internally and the
delivery of a Notice of Claim to Apexmynt are prerequisites to commencement of an arbitration proceeding (or
any other legal proceeding).
31.4. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Apexmynt shall not be
disclosed
to the arbitrator.
32. Agreement to Arbitrate
32.1. Aside from where Applicable Law requires or provides you with a choice otherwise, you and Apexmynt agree
that, subject to the immediately preceding clause above (Notice of Claim and Dispute Resolution Period), any
Claim shall be determined by mandatory final and binding individual (not class) arbitration administered by
the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (“HKIAC”) in accordance with the HKIAC Rules for the time being
in force, which rules are deemed incorporated by reference in this clause.
32.2. The seat of arbitration shall be Hong Kong.
32.3. The Tribunal shall consist of one (1) arbitrator to be appointed in accordance with the HKIAC Rules for
the time being in force.
32.4. The language of the arbitration shall be in English.
32.5. You and Apexmynt further agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her
own jurisdiction, including without limitation any objections with respect to the existence, scope or validity
of the Agreement to Arbitrate, or to the arbitrability of any Claim.
32.6. The arbitration provisions set forth in this clause will survive termination of these Terms.
32.7. Limitation period for filing: Any arbitration against Apexmynt must be commenced by filing and serving a
Notice of Arbitration in accordance with the HKIAC Rules within one (1) year after the date that the user
asserting the Claim first found out or reasonably should have found out the alleged act, omission or default
giving rise to the Claim (“Limitation Period”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Limitation Period shall
include the Dispute Resolution Period set out at clause 31.1. There shall be no right to any remedy or relief
for any Claim by the user if the Notice of Arbitration in respect of that Claim is not filed and served on
Apexmynt within that Limitation Period. If the Limitation Period is contrary to applicable law, the user shall
be required to bring any Claim against Apexmynt within the shortest time period permitted by the applicable
law. A Notice of Arbitration may be served on Apexmynt in accordance with the Applicable Laws and rules of
service.
32.8. Notice: if Apexmynt commences arbitration against you, Apexmynt will give you notice at the email
address
or mailing address you have provided. You agree that any notice sent to this email or mailing address shall be
deemed effective for all purposes, including without limitation to determinations of the adequacy of service.
It is your obligation to ensure that the email address and/or mailing address on file with Apexmynt is
up-to-date and accurate.
33. Confidentiality
33.1. The parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential. The existence of the arbitration, the
existence or content of the Claim, all documents and information provided or exchanged in connection with the
arbitration, and any submissions, orders or awards made in the arbitration shall be kept confidential and no
party shall disclose any of the foregoing to any third party except the tribunal, the HKIAC, the parties,
their counsels, experts, witnesses, accountants and auditors, insurers and reinsurers, and any other persons
necessary to the conduct of the arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may disclose such
confidential information:
a. if the written consent of the other party is obtained;
b. to the extent required by applicable law or by the regulations of any regulatory or supervisory authority
of competent jurisdiction to which the party is or may become subject to or pursuant to any order of court or
other competent authority or tribunal of competent jurisdiction;
c. in connection with the commencement, pursuit or defence by a party of any bona fide legal proceedings to
enforce or challenge any award rendered in the arbitration; and
d. to the extent that the relevant confidential information is in the public domain otherwise than by breach
of this agreement.
This term of confidentiality in this clause shall survive termination of these Terms and conclusion or stay of
any arbitration brought pursuant to these Terms.
34. Governing law
Aside from where Applicable Law requires or provides you with a choice otherwise, these Terms (including this
arbitration agreement) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of Hong
Kong.
35. Class action waiver
You and Apexmynt agree that any Claims shall be brought against Apexmynt in an arbitration on an individual
basis only and not as a plaintiff or class member in a purported class or representative action. You further
agree to waive any right for such Claims to be brought, heard, or arbitrated as a class, collective,
representative, or private attorney general action, to the extent permissible by applicable law. Combining or
consolidating individual arbitrations into a single arbitration is not permitted without the consent of
Apexmynt.
