3. About Sombra Network

Sombra Network is a distributed application, functioning as a marketplace and social network, that runs on the Binance Smart Chain and Ethereum Mainnet, using specially developed smart contracts that provide an immutable ledger of all transactions that occur on Sombra Network (“Smart Contracts”). Using these Smart Contracts, users can create, buy, transfer and trade unique digital assets in the form of non-fungible tokens.

Sombra Network is not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers on the marketplace. We are an administrative platform that facilitates transactions between a buyer and a seller and helps maintain visual and auditory collections. Depending on the preference of the artist, Sombra does help facilitate conversions and uploads to maintain order and smooth user experience. Some artists are not well versed in the process of crypto and they have given us permission to act on their behalf to facilitate the transaction while maintaining personal agreements and responsibility for the sale itself. The contract for the sale is directly between buyer and seller.

We have no control over, and do not guarantee the existence, quality, safety, or legality of, items advertised; the ability of sellers to sell items; the ability of buyers to pay for items; or that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction. We do our absolute best to verify and clear all art works and will work diligently to rectify any issues that arise.

In this respect, you acknowledge and agree that Sombra Network is a non-custodial software provider that has developed this distributed and decentralized environment where you can autonomously and directly access the app without any involvement whatsoever by Sombra Network or any third party.

Artists who elect to have Sombra manage their sales and conversion from BNB to USD are subject so management fees of 3% in addition to the network.

4. How can I use Sombra Network?

Sombra utilizes web 3 provider services on desktop users need to use a web 3 enabled browser such as Google Chrome or a web browser inside a web 3 enabled wallet browser such as Trust Wallet, Metamask or Sombra Wallet (October 2021)

Once installed either on mobile or browser you will need to use Metamask / SW to interact with any smart contract and subsequently any NFT or game on the Sombra Network. Sombra does contain a transaction log per wallet/profile, but these web 3 applications can also track your transactions locally. 

Sombra NEVER will have access or request any wallet information aside from your address or transaction hash. Your 12 word security phrase is NEVER to be given out to anyone including Sombra Staff.

Your web 3 account and Metamask wallet/Sombra Wallet is your identity and keycard to the Sombra Network. Without it you cannot create a profile or gain entry to the Network. If you lose your account information, we cannot retrieve it nor any NFT attached to the account. User accounts live on the blockchain and Sombra does have access to change or alter user accounts aside from display features within your user profile on the Sombra Network. The App gives you the option to use, amongst others, MetaMask, WalletConnect, Portis or Fortmatic to connect your account to your web 3 compatible browser.

Transactions that take place on the App are managed and confirmed via the Binance Smart blockchain. Your BSC wallet address and ledger will be made publicly visible whenever you engage in a transaction on Sombra Network. This is a function of the blockchain not Sombra Network. 

Any transactions on Sombra Network are facilitated and run by MetaMask, WalletConnect, Fortis or Portmatic or the other web 3 compatible browser you have chosen. These transactions are governed by the terms and conditions of those other browsers. 

5. Your Sombra User Profile

You must create an account with sombra.app to use the Services or the app. We will ask you specific information for the account to be verified. Once complete you can register to begin trading. By creating an account, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete account information about yourself, and to maintain and promptly update, as necessary, your account information. For further information on how we use that information, please see our Privacy Policy.

You understand that your Sombra Network account is limited solely to you and your wallet address/metamask or SW account. You agree that all transactions done through your wallet and account are your own responsibility and any 3rd party fraud or attempted theft is not the responsibility of Sombra Network. You understand that you are solely responsible for maintaining the security of your account and control over any usernames, private keys, or any other authentications or codes that you use to access the Services. Any unauthorized access to your account could result in the loss or theft of tokens and/or funds in any linked accounts. You understand and agree that you will not hold Sombra Network responsible for any issues related to managing and maintaining the security of your account and your web 3 wallet or blockchain accounts. You further understand and agree that we are not responsible (and you will not hold us responsible) for any unauthorized access to, or use of, your account or your MetaMask wallet (or other blockchain wallets and accounts) through Sombra Network or otherwise. 

You alone are responsible for monitoring your account. If you notice any unauthorized or suspicious activity in your account, please notify us immediately at support@sombra.app

6. NFT Creation

On Sombra Network, users can create limited-edition digital files called NFTs, that contain unique metadata and content data. These files can be anything that is transferable as a digital file. NFTs range from video content, 3D files formats, audio, text, and code, and more. This content is owned by the user that created it (the “Artist”). When an Artist creates content, it is linked to a tokenized smart contract in the form of an NFT. Sombra Network and its artist mint their works on the blockchain which means that a contract is executed between the file and the blockchain which allows it to be uploaded and stored forever. Once on the blockchain the files cannot be removed but can be transferred to new owners as per their injected web 3 account. This is explained more in Section 10 below about intellectual property rights.

Users must be approached by Sombra Network to list artworks. Users can apply to be reviewed to expedite the process if they wish

To apply for a review:

• fill out prospective artist form on https://sombra.app
• Include social media and or website links
• provide an example of original artwork.

Sombra Network holds the right to refuse any participant now or in the future for any reason it deems appropriate. Sombra Network does not guarantee success as an artist or sales. Sombra Network holds the right to remove artists if needed. 

The Tokens can be sold or transferred to other people. When a Token is purchased or transferred by a person, the Ethereum token that it represents is automatically transferred to that person’s Ethereum address.

7. I am an artist. What should I know?

If you are an artist, you understand and agree that:

• you alone are responsible for the accuracy and integrity of your content uploaded either by yourself or as you direct Sombra Network to do
• any Content that violates any of Sombra Network’s policies may be delisted by Sombra Network and legal action taken if necessary 
• you must respect the intellectual property rights of others; and
• Artists will suggest the listing prices, but Sombra has final say in listing. This is to ensure realistic artist sales and a user-friendly experience. Sombra will always consult with each artist prior to final listing if the sale price differs from their request. 
• You reserve the right to remove unsold art from the platform but please not once minted to the blockchain the files are immutable. 

Artists will not infringe on any known copyright, trademark, patent, moral, database or other intellectual property rights (the “Intellectual Property Rights”) that belong to other individuals, corporations, or estates. 

Sombra Network reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to prohibit artists from using the Sombra Network services. We monitor all content from creators to prevent fraudulent activity or violation of these Terms. We DO NOT take responsibility for any infringements of associated artists, but we do attempt to rectify any issues or claims as best as possible and will disseminate associated information as per law enforcement requirements. In the event that you choose to burn your NFT tokens (e.g. by sending them to the zero address) you agree to bear the entire cost of any blockchain fees (such as gas) as well as the responsibility of burning them. Sombra is not able to burn NFT tokens on your behalf. Burning is the act of destroying a token by sending it to a contract address on the blockchain that is a zero address. When tokens are sent to zero addresses, they are not retrievable and are considered gone forever. Think of burning as sending your token to the phantom zone. It still exists but it is never coming back. Superman said so.

8. Ownership of NFTs and Original Artwork

Owning an NFT is just like owning a physical artwork, like an original painting or a print. Artists can choose how many versions are created of each artwork and based on that the rarity and price will change. In owning an NFT, you understand that no intellectual property is passed on to you from the artist unless specifically stated in the listing and subsequent smart contract.

Users on the Sombra Network cannot assume any rights or ownership of the source works unless otherwise stated by the artist. In some instances, artists will commission Sombra to act as a broker to sell not only the NFT in question, but the IP associated with that NFT and source work. Only under this circumstance can an NFT owner assume the rights for reproduction and monetary gain from the content outside of a resale of that specific NFT. 

Owning and downloading content via Sombra Network or directly from IFPS (Interplanetary File System), does not give you any intellectual property rights for the content unless context is as stated above. 

As a buyer and owner of NFTs on the Sombra Network, you accept all risk associated with the purchase and abdicate Sombra Network of any liability associated with that and any transaction or purchase on the Sombra Network. It is up to the individual and artist to verify the authenticity of the artwork. Sombra Network and its staff will always assist to the best of their ability but cannot guarantee proper IP clearance. 

If you believe that any content hosted on the website infringes yours or someone else’s’ intellectual property rights, please let us know at support@sombra.app and prompt action will be taken.

It is our policy to terminate or suspend the accounts of rulebreakers at any point. Don’t steal art and you won't get the ban hammer.

9. Intellectual property

When you buy an NFT with Sombra Network:

• you do not acquire any intellectual property rights with the NFT (unless otherwise stated). In NFT ownership, you receive a digital version of that artwork that lives on the blockchain and can only be accessed by you.
• As the owner, you have the right to display the NFT and to resell it on the secondary Sombra market.
• The original artist of the NFT retains the rights to the source derivative 
• You have no right to use the content for commercial purposes.

In using the Sombra Network or its services, whether as a buyer or a seller, you agree you will not infringe any Copyright or Intellectual Property Rights of other entities. 

10. Sombra Token 

Sombra Network has its own token that runs on the Binance Smart Chain. The Sombra Network Utility Token or SMBR is a decentralized utility token that trades on the decentralized exchange PancakeSwap. Holders of the SMBR token receive rewards from each NFT transaction that occurs in the form of 10% of the sale. Each month token holders are airdropped their cut of sales via a python script. 

Presale

Sombra Token originated as a token called Cheecoin. Cheecoin rebranded and swapped to a new contract in August 2021. Cheecoin did NOT do an ICO but a presale. What is the difference? ICOs are created to fund the project development and done as a means of raising capital for a project to spend over time. Cheecoin presale was offered to early traders as a means of launching the token itself. The presale funds were transferred 100% into the financial liquidity that backed the token at launch. No funds from the presale were used to fund project development or personal use. 

US Securities 

Sombra Network Utility does not believe based on the decentralized nature of the marketplace and token that SMBR is a security. We believe that SMBR is a true utility token as per its integrated use in the Sombra Network and its similarities to bitcoin and Ethereum. Sombra Network continues to monitor all SEC cases but until more clarity arrives Sombra Network and SMBR token does not support US customers and must warn all customers that it takes no responsibility for any financial losses, nor can it promise and financial gains. We see Sombra Network by 2024 as a fully decentralized art and commerce trading platform where Sombra Staff act only as non-custodial managers. 

Sombra Token was not created to give investors the opportunity to profit financially but to gain the ability to access unique one-of-a-kind artworks from the world’s top VFX artists as well as to create a self-sustaining globally connected ecosystem so artists can reach collectors worldwide. 

Sombra Network and Sombra Token do not offer financial advice to holders or community members and cannot guarantee any profit from the derivative itself. SMBR Token is intended for on network use only and aims to become the currency of digital art dealing. 

Sombra adheres to all US tax laws. 

Smart Contract Token details of the SMBR token are as follows: Sombra Network Utility is a custom contract. Every transaction that occurs on Pancake swap incurs a 6% fee. These fees are deactivated on the marketplace to maintain clean transactions, environmentally efficient gas usages, and accounting. 

• 3% of the transaction is taxed and then re-distributed to the Liquidity Pool backing the token. This 3% fee helps maintain stability at the early stages of trading. Once the token reaches a stable point that fee can be removed.
• 3% of the transaction is taxed and then re-distributed to holders of the SMBR token in correlation to the amount of SMBR token they are holding. More tokens held yields more tokens rewarded. 

11. US Customers

Sombra Network Utility Token is not intended for US customers and Sombra Network cannot assist US customers with issues that arise from purchase of tokens or subsequent trading on the Sombra Network. While we understand that via the nature of decentralized systems, we do not offer support to US customers and strongly warn against active trading. 

12. Fees and Payments

If you elect to purchase, trade, or create art on the Sombra Network in any way and/or engage in any financial transactions on the network you must use MetaMask (or other BSC MainNet compatible wallets and browsers). 

Sombra app does not as a policy refund buyer. Sombra Network reserves the right to refund customers at their discretion and can assess each situation as needed. In general, Sombra cannot reverse transactions unless Sombra is acting as the direct broker for an artist. Even in that case, where Sombra is acting as a broker for said artist it is extremely rare that a reversal will occur. Please do not email us furious for a refund. We will do our best to accommodate your request, but we cannot guarantee it and as a policy do not give refunds. 

Binance Smart Chain requires the payment of a transaction fee (gas fee) for every transaction that occurs on the BSC network. Gas fees power the blockchain network and are allocated to supporting nodes that accelerate and verify block transactions. 

Sombra Network pays all gas fees for Artists minting artwork if said artwork has been approved for minting. 

Sombra Network has a unique financial ecosystem that utilizes multiple tokens and in time multiple blockchains. At launch Sombra Network will run on BNB, SMBR and BUSD. 

BNB - Binance Smart Chain SMBR - Sombra Token

With time WBTC and WETH (wrapped) on the BSC chain will be added as well as full Ethereum support once V3 is live and stable.

Sombra Network sale transactions are broken down as follows:

• 80% of NFT sales go to artists (BNB-->BUSD-->USD)
• 10% of NFT sales go to Sombra Network (BNB)
• 10% of NFT sales go to Sombra Network Utility Token holders (BNB -->SMBR)

You acknowledge and agree that these % breakdowns as listed above are automatically executed at the sale of each NFT as per marketplace smart contracts and that unless requested by the artist are handled by the artists themselves. Sombra does offer artists the option to manage their sales, but all sales are immediately converted into BUSD and then USD for payment. Artists who choose this payment method must also submit a 1099 for tax purposes if a US resident. In addition to the commission above, for all proceeding secondary sales on the Sombra Network Marketplace, the artist receives 12% commission of the total value of that transaction.

For any proceeding secondary sales made on the Sombra Network:

• 85% of NFT sales goes to reseller (BNB)
• 11% of NFT sale goes to artist (BUSD)
• 2% of NFT sales go to Sombra Network (BNB)
• 2% of NFT sales go to Sombra Network Utility Token holders (BNB -->SMBR)

13. Risks associated with Cryptography

You accept and acknowledge each of the following risks:

• The prices of blockchain assets are extremely volatile and cannot be predicted nor controlled by the Sombra Network in any way. Fluctuations in the price of other digital assets could result in a material adverse effect on the value of Sombra Network Utility Token as well as any underlying assets such as BNB, which may also be subject to significant price volatility. 
• Sombra Network cannot guarantee that any purchasers of Sombra Network Utility Token or NFTs will not lose their investment or a portion thereof. 
• You also acknowledge that the cost of performing transactions on emerging technologies such as blockchain is variable and may change at any time based on global and governmental factors which in turn could cause impact to any activities taking place on any supported blockchain.
• You acknowledge these risks and agree that Sombra Network cannot be held liable for such fluctuations, losses, or changes to policy, internally as well as externally. 
• You expressly understand and agree that your access to and use of the services, the website and the app is done at your own risk and that the Sombra Network is provided on an “as is” basis without any warranties or guarantees of any kind. 
• To the fullest extent possible pursuant to applicable law, we, our subsidiaries, affiliates, and licensors make no warranties regarding the Sombra Network, website, app or related services.

Virtue of ownership record is maintained on Sombra Network supported blockchains such as Binance and Ethereum. All transfers of ownership are done via blockchain and through your web 3 injected account that Sombra Network has no control over. 
• NFTs are intangible in nature but can be upgraded to physical displays. These displayed are 2ndary objects that have no connection to the NFT aside from being a vehicle of delivery for that or any NFT asset as recorded by the connected web 3 wallet. Sombra Network is not obligated to provide a physical representation of any NFT listed on its marketplace unless specifically stated.
• Digital assets exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained in the Binance and Ethereum blockchains. All Smart Contracts are executed on the decentralized ledgers within these blockchains Sombra supports. Sombra Network has no control over, and makes no guarantees, warranties, or promises to any smart contract executed on the Sombra Network. 
• A full code audit will be conducted but will not serve as a guarantee of any kind. 
• Sombra Network is a non-custodial software service provider. In this respect we do not own or control NFTs or the content being sold. Due to the digital nature of NFTs, and the nature of cryptography, NFTs can become corrupted, and links associated with those NFTs can disappear. As a buyer and seller, you understand that this is a risk when using the services of Sombra Network and Sombra Network will in no way be held liable due to any loss or corruption of an NFT or its content. Furthermore, you understand that Sombra Network has no control whatsoever over the Interplanetary Filing System or the risks associated with using that system.
• Sombra Network and its affiliated partners/collaborators will not be liable to any user for losses incurred as the result of use of any supported blockchain networks. This includes, but is not limited to, losses, damages or claims arising from (i) user error (e.g. forgotten access information (such as passwords, private keys, seeds or mnemonics or incorrectly construed Smart Contracts or other transactions); (ii) server failure or data loss; (iii) corrupted wallet files; (iv) unauthorized access or activities by third parties, including but not limited to the use of viruses, phishing, or other means of attack against the Sombra Network, the Binance Smart Chain/Ethereum network, MetaMask or any other web 3 compatible browser or wallet. 
• Sombra Network is not responsible for losses due to blockchains or any other features of the Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum network or any blockchain used via MetaMask or any other web 3 compatible browser or wallet, including but not limited to late report (or no report) by developers or representatives of any issues with the blockchain supporting the blockchain networks used on the Sombra Network, including forks, technical node issues, API backend problems or any other issues having fund losses as a result.
• There are inherent security risks in providing information and dealing online over the internet. Sombra Network implements appropriate technological and internal safeguards to reduce user risks which could result in the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure, or access to your information. We also consistently assess our network safety and release periodic updates to further improve safety.
• There are risks associated with using an internet associated digital currency, including, but not limited to, the risk of hardware problems, software and internet connections problems, the risk of malicious software introduction, the risk that third parties may obtain unauthorized access to your information or wallet if proper precautions are not taken on the user end. 
• You accept and acknowledge that Sombra Network will not be responsible for any communication failures, disruptions, errors, distortions or delays you may experience when using any blockchain network or associated service for any reason.
• A lack of use or public interest in the creation and development of distributed ecosystems could negatively impact the development of the Sombra Network ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of NFTs minted on our ecosystem. This is true for all NFTs.
• The Sombra Network, Binance Smart Chain, Ethereum Network, and any digital assets could be impacted by one or more regulatory inquiries or regulatory action, which could impede or limit the ability of Sombra Network to continue to develop, and/or could impede or limit your ability to access or use the Sombra Network or supported blockchains, including access to your NFTs, digital assets, or funds. New government regulations worldwide or newly implemented policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Sombra ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of Sombra Network.
• Sombra Network maintains an API backend that is used to connect to different applications such as AR platforms and art frame displays. Sombra Network makes no guarantees or promises regarding future maintenance of this API backend, and you assume full risk of your NFT becoming incompatible with said connections in the future.
• Upgrades by Ethereum to the Ethereum platform, a hard fork in the Ethereum platform, or a change in how transactions are confirmed on the Ethereum platform may have unintended, adverse effects on all blockchains using the standards as ERC-20, ERC-721, EIP-2981, EIP-998, EIP-2309 or other bespoke smart contracts, including the Sombra Network ecosystem. This is true as well for any updates, forks, or changes to the Binance ecosystem. Sombra will not support the Ethereum Blockchain until V3 has been released and tested.
• You acknowledge and understand that cryptography is a progressing field. Advances in code cracking or technical advances such as the development of quantum computers may present risks to cryptocurrencies, digital assets, and the Sombra Network, which could result in the theft or loss of your digital assets or NFTs. Sombra Network intends to update the protocol underlying the application and services offered to account for any advances in cryptography and to incorporate additional security measures presented. Additional security technology being available or implemented does not guarantee or otherwise represent full security of the system. By using Sombra Network, you acknowledge these inherent risks.

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sombra Network and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, employees, advertisers, licensors, suppliers or partners from and against any claim, liability, loss, damage (actual and consequential) of any kind or nature, suit, judgment, litigation cost, and lawyers’ fees arising out of or in any way related to (i) your breach of these Terms, (ii) your misuse of the service or the Sombra Network, (iii) your violation of applicable laws, rules, regulations or the rights of any third party and (iv) any of your acts or omissions that implicate publicity rights, defamation or invasion of privacy in connection with your access to or use of the Sombra Network. Sombra Network reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you and, in such case, you agree to cooperate with Sombra Network in the defense of such matter.

20. Liability

We try to keep the services and the app safe, secure, and functioning properly, but we cannot guarantee the continuous operation of or access to our services as explained in the above terms and conditions as well as below.

We (including our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, agents, and employees) shall not be liable to you in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise for any business losses, such as loss of data, profits, revenue, business, opportunity, goodwill, libel, reputation, or business interruption or for any losses which are not reasonably foreseeable by us arising, directly or indirectly from:

• your use of or your inability to use our Services.
• delays or disruptions in our Services.
• viruses or other malicious software obtained by accessing, or linking to, our Services.
• glitches, bugs, errors, or inaccuracies of any kind in Sombra Services.
• damage to your hardware device from the use of any service.
• the content, actions, or inactions of third parties, including items listed using our Services.
• a suspension or other action taken with respect to your account; or
• your need to modify practices, content, or behavior or your loss of or inability to do business, because of changes to these terms or our policies.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you. This is especially so if you are a consumer.

You accept sole responsibility for the legality of your actions under laws applying to you and the legality of any items you list on any of our sites. 

Although we use techniques that aim to verify the accuracy and truth of the information provided by our users, user verification on the internet is difficult. We cannot and do not confirm, and are not responsible for ensuring, the accuracy or truthfulness of users’ purported identities or the validity of the information which they provide to us or post on our sites.

Regardless of the previous paragraphs, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or to any third party is limited to the greater of (a) the amount of fees in dispute not to exceed the total fees which you paid to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability, or © $100

21. Compensation

You will compensate Sombra Network in full (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures, and employees) for any losses or costs, including reasonable legal fees, we incur arising out of any breach by you of these terms, your improper use of the services or your breach of any law or the rights of a third party as well as any related use to your account.

22. Legal Disputes

Any claim, dispute or matter arising under or in connection with these terms shall be governed and construed in all respects by the laws of the United States of America.

In simple terms, “non-exclusive jurisdiction of the USA courts” means that if you were able to bring a claim arising from or in connection with these terms against Sombra Network in court, an acceptable court would be a court located within the United States and all international cases shall use United States law as a base of operation and legal guidance.

23. General

If any provision of these terms is held to be invalid, void or for any reason unenforceable, such provision shall be struck out and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

We may assign our rights and obligations under these terms (but without your prior express consent) if we assign these terms on the same terms or terms that are no less advantageous to you.

If you have a dispute with one or more users, you release us (and our affiliates and subsidiaries, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer, or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by these terms. A person who is not a party to these terms has no right to enforce any part of these terms. 

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer, or franchiser-franchisee relationship established now or in the future shall bear any responsibility to any user transactions or conduct on the Sombra Network.

No 3rd party product or vendor associated with Sombra Network is the responsibility of Sombra Network and its staff. Physical NFT product upgrades are technology created, curated, and supported by 3rd party vendors and cannot be altered or updated by Sombra Network now or in the future. For all issues related to 3rd party products you must consult the vendor even if the product is resold by Sombra Network. This is true for products made by partnered vendors Looking Glass Factory, TokenFrame and Infinite Objects. 

If any provision or section of these terms becomes invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable. If such modification is not possible, the relevant provision or part-provision shall be deemed deleted. Any modification to or deletion of a provision or part-provision under this section 18 shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of these terms.
