1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Terms: These Terms govern your (“you” or the “Participant”) participation in and receipt of HUB tokens (“Tokens”) through the airdrop program (“Airdrop”) organized by the Foundation.

1.2 Agreement: By participating in the Airdrop, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. These Terms govern your ability to participate in the Airdrop. Please read these Terms carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights. By participating in the Airdrop, you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not understand or agree to these Terms, please do not participate in the Airdrop.

1.3 Project Purpose: You agree that you are acquiring Tokens to participate in and use the Sidekick protocol, a live streaming platform that uses the Token as its native unit of value (the “Sidekick Protocol”).

1.4 Nature of the Token Documentation: The Token Documentation is a conceptual paper that articulates some of the main design principles and ideas for the Sidekick Protocol. The Token Documentation and the Website are intended for general informational purposes only and do not constitute a prospectus, an offer document, an offer of securities, a solicitation for investment, any offer to sell any product, item, or asset (whether digital or otherwise), or any offer to engage in business with any external individual or entity provided in said documentation. The information herein may not be exhaustive and does not imply any element of, or solicit in any way, a legally-binding or contractual relationship. There is no assurance as to the accuracy or completeness of such information and no representation, warranty or undertaking is or purported to be provided as to the accuracy or completeness of such information. Where the Token Documentation or the Website includes information that has been obtained from third party sources, the Foundation, their respective affiliates and/or the Sidekick Protocol Contributors have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of such information. Further, you acknowledge that the project development roadmap, protocol functionality are subject to change and that the Token Documentation or the Website may become outdated as a result; and the Foundation is not under any obligation to update or correct this document in connection therewith.

1.5 Validity of Token Documentation and Website: Nothing in the Token Documentation or the Website constitutes any offer by the Foundation or the Sidekick Protocol Contributors to sell any Tokens nor shall it or any part of it nor the fact of its presentation form the basis of, or be relied upon in connection with, any contract or investment decision. Nothing contained in the Token Documentation or the Website is or may be relied upon as a promise, representation or undertaking as to the future performance of the Token.The information set out in the Token Documentation and the Website is for community discussion only and is not legally binding. No person is bound to enter into any contract or binding legal commitment in relation to the acquisition of Tokens, and no digital asset or other form of payment is to be accepted on the basis of the Token Documentation or the Website. These Terms must be read together with the Token Documentation, and in the event of any inconsistencies between the Terms and the Token Documentation or the Website, the Terms shall prevail.

1.4 Term Modification: We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify any portion of these Terms at any time. If we do this, we will publicly post the updated Terms on our website and will indicate at the top of this page the date these Terms were last updated. Your continued use of or participation in the Airdrop from and after the date any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. If you do not agree to abide by these or any future Terms, you must not access, browse, or use (or continue to access, browse, or use) our Airdrop website. Without limiting anything set forth elsewhere in these Terms, you agree that we shall not be liable to you or any third party as a result of any losses suffered by any modification or amendment of this Agreement.

2. ELIGIBILITY

2.1 Sole Discretion: We, in our sole discretion, shall determine the eligibility criteria for participation in the Airdrop, including the amount of Tokens to be distributed to eligible Participants that satisfy certain criteria. Different eligible Participants may receive different amounts of Tokens in any particular Airdrop, depending on the criteria set forth by us for such Airdrop ("Airdrop Tokens"). We shall have no obligation to notify actual or potential Airdrop participants of the eligibility criteria for any Airdrop prior to, during, or after the claims are opened for such Airdrop.

2.2 Disqualification: We reserve the sole and absolute right to disqualify any participant or potential participant we deem ineligible for an Airdrop (be it under these Terms or by having determined the participant engaged in any conduct that we consider harmful, unlawful, inappropriate, or unacceptable). Such disqualification may be appropriate if we determine, in our sole discretion, for example, that the participant may have used multiple addresses to obscure its identity or location or to attempt to game, cheat, or hack the Airdrop or Tokens.

2.3 Legal Capacity: You must have full legal capacity and authority to bind and agree to the Terms. You must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence (or have reached the age of legal capacity) to participate. If Participant is acting as an employee or agent of a legal entity, and enters into these Terms on behalf of the entity, Participant represents and warrants that Participant has all necessary rights and authorizations to do so, and acknowledges and agrees that all references to “you” or “Participant” shall refer to such entity.

2.4 Jurisdictional Restrictions: You are solely responsible for understanding and complying with any and all laws and regulations applicable to your participation in the Airdrop in your jurisdiction. You agree and acknowledge that you are responsible for complying with all applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which you reside or in which you are participating in the Airdrop. You agree and acknowledge that we reserve the right to require additional information from you and to enter, use, or share such information into or with a Screening Service Provider (defined below), and its systems, tools, or functionalities, as we deem appropriate in our sole discretion, including to reduce the risks of money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions violations, or other potentially illicit activity, or as otherwise necessary to address laws and regulations that may be relevant to the Airdrop or the Tokens. You agree to provide complete and accurate information in response to any such requests.

2.5 High Risk Wallet Restrictions: We have implemented a risk-based program applicable to the Airdrop. This program screens wallets attempting to participate in the Airdrop using data and tools provided by an independent blockchain analytics provider (“Screening Service Provider”) and applying screening criteria that may extend beyond the requirements of applicable law. Participants also are subject to geo-location and proxy detection controls to prevent access to our website by users that may be Prohibited Persons or located in a Prohibited Jurisdiction (as defined herein). We reserve the right to take any additional steps as we deem necessary or appropriate, in our sole discretion, to verify the identity and eligibility of any person. We may deny, in our sole discretion, any person, internet-protocol address (“IP Address”), and/or blockchain address (“Airdrop Address”) from participating in the Airdrop based on data from our Screening Service Provider when such data indicates such person, IP Address, or Airdrop Address may present heightened risks based on our risk assessment framework.

2.6 Agreement to Restrictions: By accessing the Website and/or participating in any Airdrop, you agree and acknowledge that your Airdrop Address will be screened and excluded from the Airdrop program, at our sole discretion, if we detect threshold transactions between your Airdrop Address and another blockchain address associated with certain risk-exposure categories established by our Screening Service Provider. You agree and acknowledge that your IP Address will be screened and excluded if our geo-location controls detect that you may be located in a (a) Sanctioned Jurisdiction; (b) jurisdiction subject to heightened sanctions risks identified or enforced by certain countries, governments, or international authorities; or (c) jurisdiction otherwise considered high risk with respect to the Airdrop or otherwise (collectively, “Prohibited Jurisdictions”).

For clarity, Prohibited Jurisdictions include but are not limited to: Albania, Afghanistan, Canada, China, Cuba, Iran, Kosovo, Myanmar, North Korea, Russia, Singapore, Tajikistan, United States, the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions of the Ukraine, and any other jurisdiction in which the Airdrop is prohibited or restricted.

You agree and understand that the Prohibited Jurisdictions are subject to change at our sole discretion without notice.

3. PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS

3.1 Assumption of Risk: There is only one website for the Airdrop, which is the following: [https://claim.sidekickfans.org/]. Use of the Aidrop website and participation in the Airdrop is at your own risk. The Airdrop is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. The Foundation expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

By accessing and using the Airdrop website, you represent and warrant that you (a) understand the risks inherently associated with using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems and (b) have a working knowledge of the usage, storage, and intricacies of digital assets, such as those like the Token. You further represent that you understand that markets for digital assets are highly volatile due to various factors, including adoption, speculation, technology, security, and regulation. You acknowledge and accept that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems are variable and may increase or decrease dramatically at any time. You acknowledge and accept the risk that your digital assets may have no value or lose some or all of their value. You understand that anyone can create a token, including fake versions of existing tokens and tokens that falsely claim to represent certain projects, entities, or people, and you acknowledge and accept the risk that you or others may mistakenly seek to claim or trade those or other tokens. You acknowledge that the Foundation is not responsible for any of these variables or risks and cannot be held liable for any resulting losses that you experience, including losses while accessing or participating in the Airdrop. Accordingly, you understand and agree to assume full responsibility for all of the risks of accessing and participating in the Airdrop.

3.2 Wallet Compatibility: You must provide a compatible digital wallet address capable of receiving the Tokens (a “Wallet”). We are not responsible for lost or misdirected Tokens due to provision of an incorrect wallet address and failure to provide and connect an eligible Wallet may result in the forfeiture of Tokens. Note, there may be technical limitations, delays, and/or transaction fees due or payable to third parties to receive and/or claim Tokens through your Wallet.

3.3 Wallet Ownership: You agree that you are the legal owner of the Wallet you identify to participate in the Airdrop, and you will not sell, assign, or transfer control of such address or the Tokens to third parties to circumvent any Lock-Up (as defined herein) or to knowingly redistribute Tokens to a person that would violate these Terms if claimed directly by such person.

3.4 Wallet Disclaimers: YOU AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE AIRDROP IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. By using a Wallet, you agree that you are using the Wallet in accordance with any terms and conditions of the applicable third-party provider of such Wallets. When you interact with the Airdrop you retain control over your digital assets at all times. We do not control digital assets, including the Tokens in your wallet, and we accept no responsibility or liability to you in connection with your use of a Wallet. We make no representations or warranties regarding how the Airdrop will operate with, or be compatible with, any specific Wallet. The private keys necessary to access and/or transfer the digital assets held in a Wallet are not known or held by us. Any third party that may gain access to a participant's login credentials, private key, or third-party cloud or storage mechanism for such information may be able to misappropriate Tokens and/or other digital assets held by the participant. We have no ability to help you access or recover your private key and/or seed phrase for your wallet. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your private key, and solely you are responsible for any transaction signed with your private key. We are not responsible for any loss associated with your private key, digital wallet, vault, or other storage mechanism. You agree and acknowledge that claiming the Airdrop may require interaction with, reliance on, or an integration with third-party products or services (e.g., a wallet, network, or blockchain) that we do not control. In the event that you are unable to access such products, services, or integrations, or if they fail for any reason, and you are unable to participate in the Airdrop or claim Tokens as a result, you will have no recourse or claim against us, and we do not bear any responsibility or liability to you. You agree and acknowledge that if you are unable to claim the Airdrop due to technical bugs, smart contract issues, gas fees, wallet incompatibilities, loss of access to a wallet or the key thereto, or for any other reason, you will have no recourse or claim against us and, in any such case, we shall bear no liability.

3.5 Agreement to Lock-Up: Airdrop Tokens may be subject to a period of transfer restrictions (the “Lock-Up”), which may be enforced programmatically. You agree to abide by the Lock-Up and further agree that we may modify or extend the Lock-Up in our sole and absolute discretion.

4. DISTRIBUTION OF TOKENS

4.1 Timing: We will distribute Tokens to participants who meet all eligibility and participation requirements at our discretion.

4.2 Token Allocation: The number of Tokens you receive through the Airdrop may be limited or subject to change at our discretion. We reserve the right to modify or terminate the Airdrop at any time without prior notice.

4.3 No Guarantee: While we intend to distribute Tokens, we do not guarantee any particular value, utility, or ongoing right associated with the Tokens.

4.4 No Regulatory Approval: No regulatory authority has examined or approved, whether formally or informally, any of the information set out in the Token Documentation or the Website. No such action or assurance has been taken under the laws, regulatory requirements or rules of any jurisdiction. The publication, distribution or dissemination of the Token Documentation or the Website does not imply that the applicable laws, regulatory requirements or rules have been complied with.

5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

You have no claim to Airdrop Tokens based on such Third-Party Publications and Services. We do not review, control, monitor, or confirm the accuracy of information that may be provided through Third-Party Publications or Services. You agree and acknowledge that you have not engaged, and will not engage, in any activities designed to obtain Airdrop Tokens, including on the basis of, or in reliance on, Third-Party Publications and Services.

6. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES

The following activities are specifically prohibited when using this website or participating in the Airdrop:

We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates this provision, including reporting the violator to law enforcement authorities.

7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND RELEASE

7.1 Maximum LIABILITY: To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither we nor any of our affiliates, service providers, contractors or officers, directors and employees of the same (“Project Persons”) shall be liable for any damages arising out of or related to your participation in the Airdrop or your receipt, use, or inability to use the Tokens, including without limitation direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, damages for loss of goodwill, use, or data or other intangible losses (even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages), whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or otherwise, resulting from:

You further agree and acknowledge that if you are unable to claim the Airdrop due to technical bugs, smart contract issues, gas fees, wallet incompatibilities, loss of access to a wallet or the key thereto, or for any other reason, you will have no recourse or claim against us. In jurisdictions that do not allow certain limitations on liability, our liability shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by applicable law.

7.2 Release: You further expressly waive and release us and all Project Persons from any and all liability, claims, causes of action, or damages arising from or in any way relating to your participation in the Airdrop or use of the Sidekick Protocol.

7.3 No Professional Advice or Fiduciary Duties: All information provided on the website or through the Airdrop, or otherwise provided by us, is for informational purposes only and is not and should not be construed as professional advice. You should not take, or refrain from taking, any action based on any information contained on the website or obtained through the Airdrop. Before you make any financial, legal, tax, or other decisions with respect to the Airdrop, you should seek independent, professional advice from an individual who is licensed and qualified in the area for which such advice would be appropriate. These Airdrop Terms are not intended to, and do not, create or impose any fiduciary duties on us. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you acknowledge and agree that we owe no fiduciary duties or liabilities to you or any other party, and that to the extent any such duties or liabilities may exist at law or in equity, those duties and liabilities are hereby irrevocably disclaimed, waived, and eliminated. You further agree that the only duties and obligations that we owe you are those set out expressly in these Terms.

8. INDEMNIFICATION

8.1 Without limiting any Terms, you agree that you shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless us, our directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, actions, proceedings, investigations, demands, suits, costs, damages, losses, liabilities, or expenses (including attorneys' fees and costs, and fines or penalties imposed by any regulatory authority) incurred by, arising out of, or in connection with your breach of these Terms or your participation in the Airdrop. Your obligations under this indemnification provision will continue even after these Terms have expired or been terminated.

8.2 We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter which is subject to indemnification under this section, and you agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests assisting our defense of such matter. You may not settle or compromise any claim against subject to indemnification without our prior written consent.

9. TERMINATION

9.1 We may suspend or terminate your participation in the Airdrop if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have breached these Terms or that your participation poses a risk to us or others.

9.2 We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or terminate the Airdrop program at any time, for any reason, without prior notice.

10. RISKS OF PARTICIPATION

Claiming, using, transacting in, or holding Tokens involves a high degree of risk, including unforeseen risks that may not be included below. You should consult with your legal, tax, and financial advisors and carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in these Airdrop Terms, before deciding whether to claim, use, transact in, or hold the Tokens. If any of the following risks were to occur, the Token or Sidekick Protocol could be materially and adversely affected. You acknowledge that we are not responsible for any risks associated with your participation in the Airdrop or use of the Sidekick Protocol, and cannot be held liable for any resulting losses that you experience thereby.

10.1 Risks inherent to blockchain based systems: You understand the inherent risks associated with using cryptographic and blockchain-based systems, and that you have a working knowledge of the usage and intricacies of digital assets. You further understand that the markets for digital assets are highly volatile due to various factors, including adoption, speculation, technology, security, and regulation. You acknowledge and accept that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems are variable and may increase dramatically at any time. You further acknowledge and accept the risk that your digital assets may lose some or all of their value.

10.2 Insufficient Interest in the Sidekick Protocol or Token: The Sidekick Protocol relies on active engagement by users to achieve its intended benefits. The Foundation makes no assurance that the Sidekick Protocol will generate enough interest and user engagement to be viable or continue to be viable. It is not possible at this time to evaluate whether sufficient users will participate in the Sidekick Protocol and whether those users will sustainably and sufficiently engage with and use the Sidekick Protocol for the Sidekick Protocol to function as intended. Users of the Sidekick Protocol could mismanage, misuse, or misappropriate aspects of the Sidekick Protocol and/or Tokens in a manner that is detrimental to you and the broader community of users. This may be adverse to your ability to use Tokens.

10.3 Tax and Regulatory Risks: Without limiting the foregoing, you understand that there may be tax and regulatory risks related to participating in the Airdrop. It is your sole responsibility to determine whether, and to what extent, any taxes apply to any transactions you conduct in connection with your participation, and to withhold, collect, report, and remit the correct amounts of taxes to the appropriate tax authorities. Digital assets, blockchain technology, and any related software and services are also subject to legal and regulatory uncertainty. You understand that legislative and regulatory changes or actions may adversely affect the usage, transferability, transactability, and accessibility of digital assets, bridging, the protocol, or other parts of the Sidekick Protocol. To the extent licenses, permits, or other authorizations are required in one or more jurisdictions in which Sidekick Protocol is deemed to operate, there is no guarantee that we or another party will be able to secure such licenses, permits, or authorizations in order to operate. Significant changes may need to be made to the Sidekick Protocol to comply with any licensing and/or registration requirements (or any other legal or regulatory requirements) in order to avoid violating applicable laws or regulations or because of the cost of such compliance. Uncertainty in how the legal and regulatory environment will develop could negatively impact the development, growth, and utilization of Sidekick Protocol and therefore the uses of Tokens.

10.4 Cyberattacks and Security Breaches: You understand that cyberattacks and security breaches of the Sidekick Protocol, or the smart contracts controlling the Airdrop, or any front-end user interface or application related to or impacting the Sidekick Protocol, can occur and could cause you to lose Tokens, or adversely impact the Sidekick Protocol or the Tokens.

10.5 Lack of Market: There is no public market for the Tokens, and we do not control the development of such a market. A public market may not develop or be sustainable, and you may not be able to sell your Tokens. Furthermore, we cannot control how Token holders or third-party exchanges or platforms may support Tokens, if at all. Even if a public market for Tokens develops, such a market may be relatively new and subject to little or no regulatory oversight, making it more susceptible to fraud or manipulation. Further, the transfer restrictions on Tokens will remain in place for a significant period of time. Even if a public market does eventually exist, you may not be able to freely sell or transfer your Tokens. If you can freely sell your tokens in a public market after some period of time, the depth and volume in that market may be insufficient for you to sell without substantial price concessions.

10.6 Multiple other Significant Risks: It is possible that, due to any number of reasons, including but not limited to, lack of interest from users or partners, inability to attract sustained third-party or community contributors to the Sidekick Protocol, an unfavorable fluctuation in the value of digital and fiat assets and currencies, decrease in the utility of the Tokens, failure to generate commercial relationships, intellectual property ownership and other challenges, and macroeconomic and crypto-market-specific factors, the Sidekick Protocol may no longer be viable to operate and it may be deprecated or cease to have any functionality, users, or viability.

11. PRIVACY AND DATA PROTECTION

11.1 We may collect, use, and store limited personal information as necessary for verifying eligibility and distributing Tokens.

11.2 By participating in the Airdrop, you consent to the collection and use of your data as described in these Terms.

12. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

12.1 Governing Law; Mandatory Arbitration: These Terms and any dispute arising out of or related to the Terms or the Airdrop will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Panama, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or your participation in the Airdrop, shall be determined by arbitration administered in accordance with the Arbitration and Settlement Centre of Panama (CECAP). All disputes shall be heard by a single arbitrator. The place of arbitration shall be Panama City, Republic of Panama, unless the parties agree otherwise. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. Prior to the issue or delivery of the arbitral award, each party will bear its own costs in respect of the arbitration, following which, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which such party may be entitled. An award by the arbitrator shall be final and conclusive and binding upon the parties and shall not be subject to further appeal. Each party may enforce any award granted in accordance with this Section in any court of competent jurisdiction.

12.2 Non-Waiver: Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect.

12.3 Filing Deadline: You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of or participation in the Airdrop or otherwise related to these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

12.4 Waiver of Class Action: ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THESE TERMS OR OTHERWISE RELATED TO THE AIRDROP AND/OR THE SIDEKICK PROTOCOL MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PARTICIPANT OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.

13. MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Entire Agreement & Severability: These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Airdrop and supersede any prior understandings or agreements. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

13.2 No Waiver or Assignment: Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. You may not assign or transfer any rights under these Terms without our prior written consent.

13.3 Contact Information: For questions regarding these Terms or the Airdrop, please contact us at [[e-mail]].

13.4 Language: These Terms are written in English. Any translation into another language is provided for convenience only and shall not modify the meaning of these Terms. In the event of conflicts between the English version and any translation, the English version shall prevail.

13.5 Survival: Sections related to representations and warranties, limitation of liability, indemnification, intellectual property rights, governing law, and dispute resolution shall survive any termination or expiration of these Terms.

13.6 Force Majeure: Neither party shall be liable for failure or delay in performing its obligations hereunder if such failure or delay is due to acts of God, natural disasters, wars, civil disturbances, power failures, acts of terrorism, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of the party claiming force majeure, provided that such party gives prompt written notice of such condition and resumes its performance as soon as possible.
