1. Basic Provisions; Risk Information; No Financial Service
1.1. Unstoppable Finance GmbH, Winsstr. 12, 10405 Berlin, Germany (hereinafter: “we”, “us” or “our”) offers a software solution through a mobile iOS and Android application (“Mobile App”) with the help of which Users (as defined below) can keep blockchain-based digital assets (hereinafter: “Digital Assets”) and store the corresponding private cryptographic keys (hereinafter: “Private Key”) on their own device (hereinafter: “Ultimate App”, and, together with any additional related software services developed for and/or provided to the User by Unstoppable Finance or its affiliates, the “Service(s)”). Unstoppable Finance does not have access to or control over a User's Private Key and seed phrase or their Digital Assets at any time.
1.2. Certain provisions of these General Terms and Conditions of Business and Use (hereinafter: “GTC”) apply only to persons or legal entities physically located in the United States at the time they are accessing the Services (hereinafter: “US Persons”). These provisions are identified herein as applicable to “US Users”. Wherever such US-specific provisions conflict with any other provisions of the GTC, such US provisions shall apply and the conflicting GTC term shall not apply to such US Persons. Such provisions shall not limit the generality of any clause not applicable exclusively to US Persons, and shall have no bearing on the interpretation of the GTC for non-US Persons. Any clauses not exclusive to US Persons shall otherwise apply to US Persons to the extent permissible by applicable law.
1.3. The User may use the Services to keep, store and manage Digital Assets and the corresponding Private Keys, to send and receive transactions and cryptographically sign transaction messages, and to interact with decentralized applications (hereinafter: “DeFi DApps”), that Unstoppable Finance does not operate or control.
1.4. By using the Services, the User confirms that the User is aware of the inherent risks associated with the use of cryptographic and blockchain-based systems and that the User is experienced with handling Digital Assets and securing Private Keys. The User is aware that Digital Asset markets can be highly volatile due to various factors such as speculation, advancing technology, or changes in the regulatory environment. The use of DeFi DApps, especially for trading Digital Assets, may involve significant financial risks. Transactions undertaken and signed using the Ultimate App are irrevocable and irreversible, and there is no possibility to refund Digital Assets that have been deployed.
1.5. The User acknowledges that Unstoppable Finance offers self-hosted, non-custodial wallet software. The User is responsible for storing and securing the Private Keys stored with the Ultimate App. Unstoppable Finance does not store Seed Phrases and Private Keys for the User, nor does it have access to the User's Seed Phrase and Private Keys. In the event of loss of the Seed Phrase and Private Keys by the User, Unstoppable Finance will not be able to recover the User's Private Keys or otherwise restore access to the Digital Assets. Unstoppable Finance is not responsible for the loss of the User's Seed Phrase or Private Keys. Only the User can recover the User’s own wallet by entering or transferring the Seed Phrase in the Ultimate App. The User is aware that the use of blockchain infrastructures and the processing of blockchain transactions may result in network fees (also known as “gas fees”), which shall be borne by the User. Unstoppable Finance does not charge the User any such fees and has no control over the amount of such fees.
1.6. Unstoppable Finance does not provide any financial services, in particular Unstoppable Finance does not give any investment recommendations or advice and does not provide any investment brokerage or crypto custody services. Unstoppable Finance is also not the provider of the Digital Assets displayed in the user interface, does not offer these Digital Assets for sale or purchase and is not a provider of DeFi DApps and DeFi Services. The user is responsible for the tax treatment, in particular income tax treatment, of any profits from the purchase or sale of Digital Assets and use of DeFi DApps, protocols and services.
2. Scope of Application; Amendment of the General Terms and Conditions of Business and Use
2.1. The GTC apply to any specific contracts or agreements entered into between Unstoppable Finance and a contractual partner, or any other individual accessing the Services (hereinafter: “User”, “you” or “your”) (hereinafter: “User Agreement”). Such contracts may be entered into by using the Mobile App subject to these GTC. The use of the Services is limited to legal entities, partnerships and natural persons with unlimited legal capacity. In particular, minors are prohibited from using the Services.
2.2. Deviating, conflicting or supplementing general terms and conditions of the User shall only become part of the contract if and to the extent that Unstoppable Finance has expressly agreed to their application in writing. This consent requirement shall apply in any case, even if for example Unstoppable Finance, being aware of the general terms and conditions of the contractual partner, accepts payments by the contractual partner without reservations.
2.3. Unstoppable Finance reserves the right to change these GTC at any time and without giving reasons, while considering and weighing the interests of the User. The new GTC will be communicated to the User. They are considered as agreed upon if the User continues using the services, and does not object to their validity within 14 days after receipt of the notification by reaching out to Unstoppable Finance. If the User objects to the new terms, he/she must stop using the Services by exporting his keys and deleting the application. The right of Unstoppable Finance's to terminate the User Agreement according to Section 8 remains unaffected.
3. Functions of the Ultimate App; User's Duty of Care; Third-Party Services.
3.1. The Mobile App provided by Unstoppable Finance allow the User to generate a seed phrase for generating Private Keys as well as the User’s own public cryptographic keys (hereinafter: “Public Key”) and to create the User’s own Ultimate App address therewith. Alternatively, the User may import an existing Seed Phrase into the Ultimate App and therewith create the Private Keys.
3.2. The seed phrase is required to generate one or more Private Keys and derived Public Keys. The wallet address is based on the respective Public Key. The wallet address enables the user to receive incoming transactions. With the Private Key, the user can sign blockchain transactions to transfer Digital Assets and use DeFi DApps and DeFi Services.
3.3. Unstoppable Finance does not store the User's Seed Phrase, Private Keys and Public Keys and therefore only offers a self-hosted Wallet. The Seed Phrase and Private Keys are exclusively stored by the User on the User's local device and, if available, in the User’s compatible cloud storage. The creation and storage of backups are the responsibility of the User. Unstoppable Finance does not create backup copies of the Seed Phrase and Private Keys or the contents of the Ultimate App. The User is obliged to properly back up the Seed Phrase and Private Keys. In case of loss, the User will face the loss of access to his/her Digital Assets.
3.4. The Ultimate App contains certain features (hereinafter: “Wallet Features”) that allow the User to interact with third-party DeFi DApps, protocols and services that Unstoppable Finance does not operate itself (hereinafter: “Third-Party Services”, see Section 6). For this purpose, the Ultimate App provides a user interface that the User can use to connect to and interact with DeFi DApps or DeFi protocols. Unstoppable Finance continues to develop the Wallet Features and integrations with Third-Party Services on a regular basis, so that the Wallet Features offered and Ultimate App's compatibility with Third-Party Services may be subject to change. The presentation of the Wallet Features in the Mobile App only reflects the current functionality and does not constitute a binding offer for future services.

6. Conditions of Service; CoinGecko
6.1. The User's right to use the Services is limited to the respective state of art. Unstoppable Finance may temporarily restrict certain Wallet Features if this is necessary due to capacity limits, to maintain the security or integrity of the software, servers or services or to carry out technical measures, e.g. maintenance work serving the proper or improved service of the Ultimate App. In these cases, Unstoppable Finance will take the User’s legitimate interests into account, e.g., by providing appropriate information about planned maintenance work as an app message in advance.

DIGITAL ASSETS ARE INTANGIBLE DIGITAL ASSETS. THEY EXIST ONLY BY VIRTUE OF THE OWNERSHIP RECORD MAINTAINED IN THE BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK. ANY TRANSFER OF TITLE THAT MIGHT OCCUR IN ANY UNIQUE DIGITAL ASSET OCCURS ON THE DECENTRALIZED LEDGER WITHIN THE BLOCKCHAIN. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT Unstoppable Finance OR ANY Unstoppable Finance ENTITY CAN EFFECT THE TRANSFER OF TITLE OR RIGHT IN ANY DIGITAL ASSET. WE CANNOT AND DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT ANY DIGITAL ASSET WILL HAVE OR RETAIN ANY INHERENT VALUE, OR THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SELL OR RESELL ANY DIGITAL ASSET PURCHASED THROUGH THE SERVICE.
Unstoppable Finance is not responsible for any losses or harms sustained by you due to vulnerability or any kind of failure, abnormal behavior of software (e.g., smart contract), blockchains, or any other features of or inherent to the Digital Assets. Unstoppable Finance is not responsible for casualties due to developers’ or representatives’ delay or failure to report any issues with any blockchain supporting Digital Assets, including without limitation forks, technical node issues, or any other issues that result in losses of any sort.
Nothing in this GTC shall exclude or limit liability of either party for fraud, death or bodily injury caused by negligence, violation of laws, or any other activity that cannot be limited or excluded under the laws applicable to your jurisdiction. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES IN CONTRACTS WITH CONSUMERS, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
10.8. (US Users) You hereby release and forever discharge Unstoppable Finance and our officers, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (the “Unstoppable Entities”) from, and hereby waive and relinquish, each and every past, present and future dispute, claim, controversy, demand, right, obligation, liability, action and cause of action of every kind and nature (including personal injuries, death, and property damage), that has arisen or arises directly or indirectly out of, or that relates directly or indirectly to, the Service (including any interactions with, or act or omission of, other users of the Service or any Third-Party Properties).
YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING, OR ANY SIMILAR LAW OR RULE IN EFFECT IN YOUR JURISDICTION WHICH PROVIDES IN SUBSTANCE THAT: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”

13. App Stores.
You acknowledge and agree that the availability of the Mobile App and the Service is dependent on the third party from whom you received the Mobile App license, e.g., the Apple App Store or Google Play Store (each, an “App Store”). You acknowledge that this GTC is between you and Unstoppable Finance and not with the App Store. Unstoppable Finance, not the App Store, is solely responsible for the Services, including the Mobile App, the content thereof, maintenance, support services, and warranty therefor, and addressing any claims relating thereto (e.g., product liability, legal compliance or intellectual property infringement). In order to use the Mobile App, you must have access to a wireless network, and you agree to pay all fees associated with such access. You also agree to pay all fees (if any) charged by the App Store in connection with the Services, including the Mobile App. You agree to comply with, and your license to use the Mobile App is conditioned upon your compliance with all terms of agreement imposed by the applicable App Store when using any Service, including the Mobile App. You acknowledge that the App Store (and its subsidiaries) are third-party beneficiaries of this GTC and will have the right to enforce it.
14. Accessing and Downloading the Mobile App from the Apple App Store.
The following applies to any App Store Sourced Application accessed through or downloaded from the Apple App Store:
14.1. You acknowledge and agree that (i) this GTC is concluded between you and Unstoppable Finance only, and not Apple, and (ii) Unstoppable Finance, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App Store Sourced Application and content thereof. Your use of the App Store Sourced Application must comply with the App Store Terms of Service.
14.2. You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App Store Sourced Application.
14.3. In the event of any failure of the App Store Sourced Application to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the App Store Sourced Application to you and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App Store Sourced Application. As between Unstoppable Finance and Apple, any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of Unstoppable Finance.
14.4. You and Unstoppable Finance acknowledge that, as between Unstoppable Finance and Apple, Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims you have or any claims of any third party relating to the App Store Sourced Application or your possession and use of the App Store Sourced Application, including, but not limited to: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the App Store Sourced Application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
14.5. You and Unstoppable Finance acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim that the App Store Sourced Application or your possession and use of that App Store Sourced Application infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, as between Unstoppable Finance and Apple, Unstoppable Finance, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim to the extent required by this GTC.
14.6. You and Unstoppable Finance acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of this GTC as related to your license of the App Store Sourced Application, and that, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of this GTC, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this GTC as related to your license of the App Store Sourced Application against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

15. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT (US Users)
Please read the following arbitration agreement in this Section (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with us and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.
15.1. Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, you and Unstoppable Finance agree that any dispute, claim, disagreements arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Services, or this GTC and prior versions of the GTC, including claims and disputes that arose between us before the effective date of this GTC (each, a “Dispute”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that: (1) you and Unstoppable Finance may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if such claims qualify and remain in small claims court; and (2) you or Unstoppable Finance may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, “Dispute” will also include disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the existence of this or any prior versions of the GTC as well as claims that may arise after the termination of this GTC.
15.2. Informal Dispute Resolution. There might be instances when a Dispute arises between you and Unstoppable Finance. If that occurs, Unstoppable Finance is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. You and Unstoppable Finance agree that good faith informal efforts to resolve Disputes can result in a prompt, low‐cost and mutually beneficial outcome. You and Unstoppable Finance therefore agree that before either party commences arbitration against the other (or initiates an action in small claims court if a party so elects), we will personally meet and confer telephonically or via videoconference, in a good faith effort to resolve informally any Dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement (“Informal Dispute Resolution Conference”). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you will also participate in the conference.
The party initiating a Dispute must give notice to the other party in writing of its intent to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference (“Notice”), which shall occur within 45 days after the other party receives such Notice, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. Notice to Unstoppable Finance that you intend to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference should be sent by email to contact@unstoppable.fi or regular mail to our offices located at Winsstr. 12, 10405 Berlin, Germany. The Notice must include: (1) your name, telephone number, mailing address, e‐mail address associated with your account (if you have one); (2) the name, telephone number, mailing address and e‐mail address of your counsel, if any; and (3) a description of your Dispute. The Informal Dispute Resolution Conference shall be individualized such that a separate conference must be held each time either party initiates a Dispute, even if the same law firm or group of law firms represents multiple users in similar cases, unless all parties agree; multiple individuals initiating a Dispute cannot participate in the same Informal Dispute Resolution Conference unless all parties agree. In the time between a party receiving the Notice and the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference, nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall prohibit the parties from engaging in informal communications to resolve the initiating party’s Dispute. Engaging in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference is a condition precedent and requirement that must be fulfilled before commencing arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference process required by this section.
15.3. Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND Unstoppable Finance HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Unstoppable Finance are instead electing that all Disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in the section titled “Applicability of Arbitration Agreement” above. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
15.4. Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief. YOU AND Unstoppable Finance AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THE SECTION ENTITLED “BATCH ARBITRATION,” EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND DISPUTES OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the party’s individual claim. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to, nor shall it, affect the terms and conditions under the Section entitled “Batch Arbitration.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides by means of a final decision, not subject to any further appeal or recourse, that the limitations of this Section are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Unstoppable Finance agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in the state or federal courts located in the State of Delaware. All other Disputes shall be arbitrated or litigated in small claims court. This section does not prevent you or Unstoppable Finance from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.
15.5. Rules and Forum. The Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce; and notwithstanding any other provision herein with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement and any arbitration proceedings. If the Informal Dispute Resolution process described above does not resolve satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after receipt of your Notice, you and Unstoppable Finance agree that either party shall have the right to finally resolve the Dispute through binding arbitration. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this section of this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are currently available at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Consumer%20Rules.pdf.
A party who wishes to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a request for arbitration (the “Request”). The Request must include: (1) the name, telephone number, mailing address, e‐mail address of the party seeking arbitration and the account username (if applicable) as well as the email address associated with any applicable account; (2) a statement of the legal claims being asserted and the factual bases of those claims; (3) a description of the remedy sought and an accurate, good‐faith calculation of the amount in controversy in United States Dollars; (4) a statement certifying completion of the Informal Dispute Resolution process as described above; and (5) evidence that the requesting party has paid any necessary filing fees in connection with such arbitration. If the party requesting arbitration is represented by counsel, the Request shall also include counsel’s name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address. Such counsel must also sign the Request. By signing the Request, counsel certifies to the best of counsel’s knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, that: (1) the Request is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution; (2) the claims, defenses and other legal contentions are warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law; and (3) the factual and damages contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, will likely have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery.
Unless you and Unstoppable Finance otherwise agree, or the Batch Arbitration process discussed in the Section entitled “Batch Arbitration” is triggered, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator may direct a limited and reasonable exchange of information between the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. Your responsibility to pay any AAA fees and costs will be solely as set forth in the applicable AAA Rules.
You and Unstoppable Finance agree that all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept confidential and shall not be shared with anyone except the parties’ attorneys, accountants, or business advisors, and then subject to the condition that they agree to keep all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings confidential.
15.6. Arbitrator. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of California and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within thirty-five (35) days of delivery of the Request, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules, provided that if the Batch Arbitration process under the Section entitled “Batch Arbitration” is triggered, the AAA will appoint the arbitrator for each batch.
15.7. Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including, without limitation, disputes arising out of or related to the interpretation or application of the Arbitration Agreement, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or any portion of the Arbitration Agreement, except for the following: (1) all Disputes arising out of or relating to the Section entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” including any claim that all or part of the Section entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that such Section entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” has been breached, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (2) except as expressly contemplated in the Section entitled “Batch Arbitration,” all Disputes about the payment of arbitration fees shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (3) all Disputes about whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; and (4) all Disputes about which version of the Arbitration Agreement applies shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties, except as expressly provided in the Section entitled “Batch Arbitration.” The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any Dispute. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
15.8. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Request was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). If you or Unstoppable Finance need to invoke the authority of a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, then the party that obtains an order compelling arbitration in such action shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in securing an order compelling arbitration. The prevailing party in any court action relating to whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration, including the Informal Dispute Resolution Process, is entitled to recover their reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
15.9. Batch Arbitration. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Unstoppable Finance agree that in the event that there are one hundred (100) or more individual Requests of a substantially similar nature filed against Unstoppable Finance by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations, within a thirty (30) day period (or as soon as possible thereafter), the AAA shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Requests per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 Requests left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Requests); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award (“Batch Arbitration”).
All parties agree that Requests are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise the AAA, and the AAA shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (“Administrative Arbitrator”). In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by Unstoppable Finance.
You and Unstoppable Finance agree to cooperate in good faith with the AAA to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of Requests, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (1) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (2) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings.
15.10. This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision.
15.11. 30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to out to: Winsstr. 12, 10405 Berlin, Germany, and via e-mail to: contact@unstoppable.fi within thirty (30) days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, the email address you used to set up your Unstoppable Finance Account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of this GTC will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.
15.12. Invalidity, Expiration. Except as provided in the Section entitled “Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief”, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. You further agree that any Dispute that you have with Unstoppable Finance as detailed in this Arbitration Agreement must be initiated via arbitration within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy, or it will be forever time barred. Likewise, you agree that all applicable statutes of limitation will apply to such arbitration in the same manner as those statutes of limitation would apply in the applicable court of competent jurisdiction.
15.13. Modification. Notwithstanding any provision in this GTC to the contrary, we agree that if Unstoppable Finance makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, we will notify you. Unless you reject the change within thirty (30) days of such change becoming effective by writing to Unstoppable Finance at Winsstr. 12, 10405 Berlin, Germany and e-mailing contact@unstoppable.fi, your continued use of the Unstoppable Finance Services, including the acceptance of products and services offered on the Services following the posting of changes to this Arbitration Agreement constitutes your acceptance of any such changes. Changes to this Arbitration Agreement do not provide you with a new opportunity to opt out of the Arbitration Agreement if you have previously agreed to a version of this GTC and did not validly opt out of arbitration. If you reject any change or update to this Arbitration Agreement, and you were bound by an existing agreement to arbitrate Disputes arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Services or of the Unstoppable Finance Services, or this GTC, the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted the GTC (or accepted any subsequent changes to this GTC) remain in full force and effect. Unstoppable Finance will continue to honor any valid opt outs of the Arbitration Agreement that you made to a prior version of this GTC.
15.14. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. For any action arising out of or related to this GTC and to the extent the provisions in this Section do not apply, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Delaware.
16. Final Provisions
16.1. Unstoppable Finance is entitled to transfer its rights and obligations under the User Agreement in whole or in part to third parties with a notice period of four weeks. In this case, the User has the right to terminate the User Agreement without notice.
16.2. Should individual provisions of these GTC be or become invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by the statutory provision. If there is no statutory provision or if the statutory provision would lead to an unacceptable result, the parties shall enter negotiations to replace the invalid or unenforceable provision with a valid provision that comes as close as possible to the economic purpose of the invalid or unenforceable provision.
16.3. The User Agreement including these GTC shall be governed by German law. The application of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is excluded. For consumers domiciled in another European country but Germany, the mandatory provisions of the consumer protection laws of the member state in which the consumer is domiciled shall also apply, provided that these are more advantageous for the consumer than the provisions of the German law.
16.4. For users who are merchants within the meaning of the German Commercial Code (”Handelsgesetzbuch”), a special fund (”Sondervermögen”) under public law or a legal person under public law, Berlin shall be the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from the contractual relationship.
16.5. In the event of a conflict between the German and the English version of these GTC, the German version shall prevail.
17. Final US Provisions (US Users)
17.1. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY ACTION RELATED THERETO WILL BE GOVERNED AND INTERPRETED BY AND UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, CONSISTENT WITH THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY PRINCIPLES THAT PROVIDE FOR THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS DOES NOT APPLY TO THIS GTC.

You acknowledge and agree that products, services or technology provided by Unstoppable Finance are subject to the export control laws and regulations of the United States. You shall comply with these laws and regulations and shall not, without prior U.S. government authorization, export, re-export, or transfer Unstoppable Finance products, services or technology, either directly or indirectly, to any country in violation of such laws and regulations.
17.3.
