3. Eligibility

To be eligible to use the Services, you must be at least 18 years old or qualify as an adult in your country of residence. If you are using the Services on behalf of a legal entity, you further represent and warrant that: (a) the legal entity is duly organized and validly existing under the applicable laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; and (b) you are duly authorized by such legal entity to act on its behalf. You can only use the Services if permitted under the laws of your jurisdiction. Please make sure that these Terms are in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations that apply to you.
4. Risks and recommendations

You acknowledge that you are fully aware of all applicable laws and technical constraints relating to the proof-of-stake and proof-of-work blockchains, and to the Services. You acknowledge that you have been warned of the following associated risks and advised of the following recommendations:

4.1 Regulatory changes. Blockchain technologies and related services are subject to continuous regulatory changes and scrutiny around the world, including but not limited to anti-money laundering and financial regulations. You acknowledge that certain Services, including their availability, could be impacted by one or more regulatory requirements.

4.2 Tax. Transactions or operations in Crypto Assets , or more generally Crypto Assets events, including but not limited to exchanges, air-drops, forks, and gains arising from staking, may be considered tax events according to the legislations law under which you are subject to taxation. These rules may be unclear or subject to change, and you are therefore encouraged to consult your own tax or accounting adviser before engaging into Crypto Assets activities.

4.3 Technology. Users understand that some of the technology supported or made available through the Services are new, untested and not provided by Ledger and therefore outside of Ledger’s control. Advances in cryptography, or other technical advances such as the development of quantum computers, could present risks to blockchain networks which could result in the theft or loss of Crypto Assets. Other adverse changes in market forces or in the technology, broadly construed, may prevent or compromise Ledger’s performance under these Terms.

4.4 Cybersecurity. Hackers or other groups or organizations may attempt to interfere with Ledger’s products and information systems in several ways, including without limitation denial of service attacks, side-channel attacks, spoofing, smurfing, malware attacks, or consensus-based attacks.

4.5 Underlying blockchain protocols. All transactions created through the Services are confirmed and recorded on blockchain networks. Such networks are decentralized peer-to-peer networks run by independent third parties, which Ledger does not own, control or operate. We have no control over blockchain networks and, therefore, cannot and do not ensure that the transactions you broadcast on the Services will be confirmed and processed. You acknowledge that we do not store, send, or receive Crypto Assets on your behalf and you agree that the transactions you configure through the Services may fail, or may be substantially delayed by the underlying blockchain networks. On occasions, the blockchain protocol of a given Crypto Asset may change, which may have consequences on its key characteristics including but not limited to their availability, name, security, valuation value or the way it operates. Forks entail that forked Crypto Assets may be misdirected or replicated. In any such events, Ledger may decide, at its discretion, to suspend support of the impacted Crypto Asset for as long as Ledger deems necessary. When it so decides, Ledger will endeavor to give you advance notice, but may not be able to. You should keep yourself apprised of such events and make all necessary arrangements.

4.6 No retrieval of Private Keys. Ledger operates non-custodial services, which means that we do not store, nor do we have access to your Crypto Assets nor your Private Keys. Ledger does not have access to or store passwords, 24-word Recovery Phrase, Private Keys, passphrases, transaction history, PIN, or other credentials associated with your use of the Services. Unless you subscribe to a third-party recovery service, no one is in a position to help you retrieve wallet access. You are solely responsible for remembering, storing, and keeping your credentials in a secure location, away from prying eyes. Any third party with knowledge of one or more of your 24-word Recovery Phrase or PIN can gain control of the Private Keys associated with your Ledger Device or of the 24-word Recovery Phrase, and therefore steal your Crypto Assets, without any possibility for you or Ledger to retrieve them.

4.7 Keep your credentials safe. When you set your Ledger Device up, you must: (a) create and remember a strong PIN that you do not use for any other service; (b) protect and keep your 24-word Recovery Phrase secure and confidential; (c) protect access to your Ledger Device; To learn more about how to use and secure your 24-word Recovery Phrase, we recommend that you visit ledger.com and in particular, or visit Ledger’s website and in particular, this page, or the “Learn” section in Ledger Live and our support Website here.

4.8 Do not trust. Verify. Software integrity, especially when connected to the Internet, is very hard to verify. Ledger’s security model relies on trusted display. This is why the verification of the information on your Ledger Device is paramount. Before you approve an operation, you must always double check that the information displayed on your mobile or desktop screen is correct and matches the information displayed on your Ledger Device. Upon sending Crypto Assets, you are solely responsible for verifying that the recipient address, amount and fees are correct and that they are the same on both your computer or mobile and on your Ledger Device’s screen. When performing an operation or an authentication using NFC connectivity, you may not have the opportunity to double-check it. Please pay close attention to what is displayed on your computer or mobile. The step of bringing your Ledger Device into close proximity to your computer or mobile serves as an approval action for the Security Key, facilitating both convenience and security. You also acknowledge that using unverified addresses to receive Crypto Assets comes at your own risk.

4.9 Security Key App. Successful authentication using the Security Key App relies on proper implementation and integration of the authentication process by the relevant Third Party Service.In the event of loss, theft, or breakdown of your Ledger Device, you may no longer be able to authenticate using Security Key App-related Third Party Services. In order to recover access to your account, please contact the support team of the relevant Third Party Service. 

4.10 Learn more about crypto and the risks involved. Before using Ledger Live or any of Ledger Devices, it’s important to learn and understand how to use your Crypto Assets and the risks involved. To help you with that, Ledger recommends that you visit the Ledger Academy before starting your crypto journey.

4.11 No liability. There may be additional risks that we have not foreseen or identified in these Terms. Before you use the Services, you are strongly encouraged to carefully assess whether your financial situation and risk tolerance is compatible with such use. For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding the generality of the Limitation of Liability under these Terms, you hereby agree that Ledger shall have no liability for any loss that incurs as a consequence of the risks highlighted in this section and/or your failure to follow the recommendations herein.

5.2.6 Decentralized financial applications. Certain Third Party Services are not operated by identified entities, but can be accessed directly through an interaction between the User’s wallet (whether or not the User uses the Application DeviceDevice Application or the Ledger Device) and one or several programs that are solely deployed and accessible on a blockchain network (i.e. “smart contracts”).

5.3 Staking

5.3.1 General. Through Ledger Live, you can stake specific assets to receive rewards for securing Proof-of-Stake (POS) networks. You may choose to stake your assets by delegating to a Ledger operated validator node or to a third-party validator node. If you choose to stake your assets with a third-party validator node (including the “Ledger by Figment” node or any other “Ledger by…” node), then such staking is subject to the third party’s staking terms and conditions. LEDGER DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY ADVICE OR MAKE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT ENGAGING IN STAKING OR CHOOSING A VALIDATOR.  Ledger reserves the right to modify the list of referenced validators at any time without prior notice. 

5.3.2 Staking Rewards. You explicitly confirm that you are aware that delegation of staking rights to a validator operator listed in Ledger Live does not grant to your benefit any right to request payment of any kind, but merely a potential right to share a reward perceived by the validator. If you stake your assets with a Ledger operated node, Ledger will be acting as a transaction validator on the applicable Proof-of-Stake (POS) network. If Ledger successfully validates a block of transactions in that network, you may receive staking rewards granted by such network and Ledger will receive validator fees (at the rate indicated to you when staking your assets with Ledger’s validator). Your reward will be determined by the protocols of the applicable network. Please be aware that some Proof-of-Stake networks require that a certain amount of staked assets be “locked” (restricted from any use, sale or transfer) for a certain period of time while staking.

5.3.3 No custody. Ledger will never take custody over any of your rewards or assets and Ledger has no responsibility or control over any Proof-of-Stake network on which Ledger may exercise validation rights delegated by you. 5.3.4 No guarantee of Rewards. LEDGER DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE STAKING REWARDS OR ANY STAKING REWARD RATES. SUCCESSFUL TRANSFER OF THE REWARDS IS SUBJECT TO THE PROOF-OF-STAKE NETWORKS AND IS NOT UNDER LEDGER’S CONTROL.

5.3.5 Disclaimer. Staking is provided “as is”. Ledger is not responsible in any way for any failure by any supported Proof-Of-Stake (POS) network to transfer rewards (including any risks of “slashing”) or for the loss, destruction, or transfer of rewards to the incorrect wallet address. Ledger does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation of the staking services or that it will correct all defects or prevent third-party disruptions or unauthorized third party access.
