RISKS

The trading of goods and products, real or virtual, as well as virtual currencies involves significant risk. Prices can and do fluctuate on any given day. Such price fluctuations may increase or decrease the value of your assets at any given moment. Any currency – virtual or not – may be subject to large swings in value and may even become worthless. There is an inherent risk that losses will occur as a result of buying, selling or trading anything on a market.

Cryptocurrency trading also has special risks not generally shared with official currencies or goods or commodities in a market. Unlike most currencies, which are backed by governments or other legal entities, or by commodities such as gold or silver, Cryptocurrencies are unique type of “fiat” currency, backed by technology and trust. There is no central bank that can issue more currency or take corrective measures to protect the value of Cryptocurrencies in a crisis.

Instead, Cryptocurrencies are an as-yet autonomous and largely unregulated global system of currency firms and individuals. Traders put their trust in a digital, decentralized and partially anonymous system that relies on peer-to-peer networking and cryptography to maintain its integrity.

The trading of Cryptocurrencies is often susceptible to irrational (or rational) bubbles or loss of confidence, which could collapse demand relative to supply. For example, confidence might collapse in Cryptocurrencies because of unexpected changes imposed by software developers or others, a government crackdown, the creation of superior competing alternative currencies, or a deflationary or inflationary spiral. Confidence might also collapse because of technical problems: if the anonymity of the system is compromised, if money is lost or stolen, or if hackers or governments are able to prevent any transactions from settling.

There may be additional risks that we have not foreseen or identified in our Terms of Use.

You should carefully assess whether your financial situation and tolerance for risk is suitable for buying, selling or trading Bitcoins, XRP, Ethereum, Litecoin and BitcoinCash.

We use our banking providers in order to receive client funds and make payments. Our banking providers DO NOT transfer, exchange, or provide any services in connection with Cryptocurrencies.

If you have multiple currency balances in your Account and one of the currency balances becomes negative for any reason, Linqcash may set-off the negative balance by using funds you maintain in a different currency balance.

If your Account still remains negative despite the set-off, you shall transfer money from your Blockchain Wallet into Linqcash designated Blockchain Address as soon as possible to bring your Linqcash Account to a zero or positive balance. Additionally, you agree and irrevocably authorize Linqcash to charge your debit card or credit card for the amounts owing, or to engage in other collection efforts to recover such funds from you.

As stated in Clause 7.1, we are not in the position (nor are we obligated) to verify the identity or authority of any person(s) using your Linqcash Account.

If you discover a transaction in your Linqcash Account that you did not authorize, you should contact the other relevant party (e.g. the other User receiving your money, or the bank which the money was withdrawn to) directly to resolve the issue. You may wish to also contact Linqcash to assist you to contact the other relevant party if he or she is a User.

10.3 Linqcash Errors

We will rectify any Error that we discover.

(a) If an Error results in you receiving less than the correct amount which you are entitled to, Linqcash will restore your Account balance with the difference.

10.4 Your Errors

10.4.1 Sending payments: If you erroneously send a payment to the wrong party, or send a payment for the wrong amount (based on a typographical error, for example), your only recourse will be to contact the party to whom you have sent the payment and ask them to refund the payment.

10.4.2 Deposits: If your Linqcash account does not have a sufficient balance to send the requested payment, you will have to deposit into your Linqcash Account.

If you have transferred successfully into the Linqcash designated wallet address(s) but you entered the wrong initials / transaction reference code when initiating the transfer, you should contact Linqcash customer support and send the necessary screenshots and documents to prove that the transfer originated from you. Linqcash is under no obligation to credit your Linqcash account with funds unless Linqcash is satisfied that your funds were successfully transferred into Linqcash’ designated wallet address(s) AND with the correct initials / transaction reference code (as generated by the Linqcash system).

10.4.3 Withdrawals: If you erroneously withdrew money from your Linqcash Account to a wrong wrong address, or withdrew the wrong amount (based on a typographical error, for example), your only recourse will be to contact the receiver to whom you sent the payment and ask them to refund the payment.

12.1 Your Liability

You are responsible for all Reversals, Chargebacks, Claims, fees, fines, penalties and other liability incurred by Linqcash, a User, or a third party caused by or arising out of your breach of this Agreement, and/or your use of the Linqcash Services. You agree to reimburse Linqcash, a User, or a third party for any and all such liability.

You are also liable for using the services of our third party service providers in a manner prohibited by them in their agreement with you, or providing inaccurate or incomplete information while using their service.

12.2 Reimbursement for Your Liability

If you are liable for any amounts owed to Linqcash, Linqcash may immediately remove such amounts from your Linqcash Credit and your Account balance. If your current Account balance is insufficient to meet your liability, Linqcash will remove any funds remaining in your Account and instate your Account with a negative balance up to the remaining amount of your liability, and you shall deposit into your Account (in accordance with Clause 6.4 above) as soon as possible to restore your Account to a zero or positive balance, or to pay Linqcash through an alternative method agreed to by Linqcash.

12.3 Actions by Linqcash – Restricted Activities

If Linqcash, in its absolute discretion, believes that you may have engaged in any Restricted Activities, we may take various actions to protect Linqcash, its parent, subsidiaries and affiliates, other Users, other third parties or you from Reversals, Chargebacks, Claims, fees, fines, penalties and any other liability. The actions that may be taken include but are not limited to the following:

  1. We may close, suspend, or limit your access to your Account or the Linqcash Services;
  2. You may have to forfeit your Linqcash Credits;
  3. We may refuse to provide the Linqcash Services to you now and in the future; and
  4. We may hold your funds for a period of time reasonably needed to protect against the risk of liability to Linqcash or a third party, or if we believe that you may be engaging in potentially fraudulent or suspicious activity and/or transactions.

12.4 Actions by Linqcash – Holds

Risk-based holds: Linqcash, in its absolute discretion, may place a hold on any or all of the payments you receive when Linqcash believes there may be a high level of risk associated with you, your Account, or any or all of your transactions. Linqcash’s determination may be based on different factors and Linqcash may rely on information it receives from third parties. If Linqcash places a hold on a payment, the funds will appear in your “withheld balance” and the payment status will indicate the “Pending”, for example it can show as “Completed – Funds not yet available.” Linqcash will release the hold on any payment after 30 calendar days from the date the payment was received into your Account unless Linqcash has a reason to continue to hold the payment such as (a) the receipt of a dispute, Claim, Chargeback, or Reversal, (b) Linqcash believes that you have violated the terms of this Agreement or any other Policy and that such a violation results in the need to continue holding the funds, or (c) Linqcash believes that you may be engaging in potentially fraudulent or suspicious activity and/or transactions. In such an event, Linqcash may continue holding the payment in your Account until the matter is resolved pursuant to this Agreement. Linqcash, in its absolute discretion, may release the hold earlier under certain circumstances, for example when you upload tracking information of the item you shipped or when the paying User confirms that you have delivered the goods or services promised.

Disputed transaction holds: If a User files a dispute, Claim, Chargeback or Reversal on a payment you received, Linqcash may place a temporary hold on the funds in your Account to cover the amount of the liability. If you win the dispute, Linqcash will lift the temporary hold. If you lose the dispute, Linqcash will remove the funds from your Account.

12.5 Actions by Linqcash – Reserves

Linqcash, in its absolute discretion, may place a Reserve on funds held in your Account where Linqcash believes there may be a high level of risk associated with your Account. If Linqcash places a Reserve in your Account, transactions will be shown as “pending” or “withheld” in your Linqcash balance, and you will not have access to funds in a “pending” or “withheld” status until they are cleared. The terms of the Reserve may require that a certain percentage of the amounts received into your Account are held for a certain period of time, or that a certain amount of money is held in Reserve, or anything else that Linqcash determines is necessary to protect against the risk associated with your Account. Linqcash may change the terms of the Reserve at any time by providing you with notice of the new terms.

12.6 Actions by Linqcash – Account Closure, Termination of Service, Limited Account Access; Confidential Criteria

Linqcash, in its absolute discretion, reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and/or access to the Linqcash Services for any reason and at any time upon notice and payment to you of any unrestricted funds held in your balance. If we limit access to your Account, you may have the opportunity to request restoration of access if, in our absolute discretion, we deem it appropriate. Further, you acknowledge that Linqcash decision to take certain actions, including limiting access to your Account, placing holds or imposing Reserves, may be based on confidential criteria that is essential to our management of risk, the security of Users’ Accounts and the Linqcash system. You agree that Linqcash is under no obligation to disclose the details of its risk management or its security procedures to you.

12.7 Acceptable Use Policy Violations

If you violate the Acceptable Use Policy, then in addition to the above actions, you will be liable to Linq Limited for Linqcash damages for each violation of the Acceptable Use Policy. You agree that $500.00 EURO (or equivalent) per transaction in violation of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of Linqcash actual damages considering all currently existing circumstances, including the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to Linqcash that reasonably could be anticipated because due to the nature of the violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, actual damages would be impractical or extremely difficult to calculate. Linqcash may deduct such damages directly from any existing balance in the offending Account, or any other Account you control.

13 Disputes

13.1 Disputes with other Users regarding underlying transaction

If you have any disputes with other User(s) regarding the underlying transaction, you should take it up with the other User(s) directly. We shall not be involved in any dispute that may arise between Users unless all of the following criteria are met:
