Terms of Service

You must be at least 18 years old to purchase products or participate in digital asset trading activity. By using the Platform, you represent that you meet this requirement.

We offer:

• Professionally graded collectible printed trading cards in four rarity tiers: Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary (Class 16)
• Limited-edition collectible releases ("Drops") with varying rarity distributions
• Online non-downloadable digital collectible trading card images for entertainment purposes (Class 41)
• Hosted digital collection management platform ("Locker") (Class 42)
• Platform-based Swap Spot marketplace for collector-to-collector exchanges (Class 35)
• Platform-based Pack Points engagement system
• RUN IT 1V1 — a peer-to-peer dice game of skill where two users stake same-rarity Digital Collectibles; the system auto-resolves a classic craps sequence and transfers both stakes to the winner (see Section 20)
• Augmented Reality (AR) experiences — scan physical AR-enabled cards to view 3D models anchored in your environment via Apple AR Quick Look or Google Scene Viewer
• Tap Trade — a real-time, 6-digit-code card-swapping system for live events and in-person meetups
• Live Event Mode — a dedicated full-screen trading and leaderboard experience designed for drops and collector events
• Apple Wallet loyalty passes for collector identification
• Serial number claims — verified first-rip collectibles with unique serial identifiers
• Native mobile applications on iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play)

All products are private collectibles for entertainment purposes unless expressly stated otherwise.

Our collectible cards are categorized into four rarity tiers:

• Legendary — Ultra-rare premium cards with the highest collectible value
• Epic — Limited-edition cards with elevated rarity
• Rare — Above-average rarity with distinct design elements
• Common — Standard-tier cards included in every drop

Customers are NOT "topping up" a monetary wallet or stored balance.

The selected amount represents the purchase of a designated collectible product tier and associated digital companion content.

The purchase amount is immediately applied to the specific product tier selected and does not remain as an open or redeemable stored value.

How Pack Points Work:

• Earned through product purchases and platform participation
• Used ONLY to enter platform challenges
• Challenge winners receive physical collectible cards + digital certificates

Pack Points CANNOT:

• Be converted into money or cash equivalents
• Be used to reduce the cost of future purchases
• Be withdrawn or transferred for monetary value
• Be redeemed for currency (fiat or crypto)
• Represent stored monetary funds

Points function similarly to arcade tokens or game tickets—they enable participation in activities but have no value outside the platform.

Digital collectibles:

• Are not securities
• Are not financial instruments
• Are not investment contracts
• Do not represent equity
• Are not legal tender
• Are digital companion items to physical collectibles

We reserve the right to modify or discontinue digital features at any time.

Our collectibles may depict historical individuals whose likenesses are in the public domain.

Where postmortem publicity rights have expired:

• No estate license is required
• No endorsement is implied

We do not claim affiliation with estates, museums, foundations, or government agencies. Living individuals' likenesses are not used without authorization.

All original artwork, designs, logos, digital assets, and branding are the property of the Company. You may not reproduce, duplicate, distribute, or exploit any content without written consent.

You acknowledge that:

• Collectible values fluctuate
• Collectible markets are speculative
• Digital asset markets are volatile
• Swap Spot liquidity is not guaranteed

We make no guarantees regarding appreciation, resale value, or future demand.

Disputes & Chargebacks:

• We actively monitor transactions using fraud detection tools
• High-value or flagged transactions may be manually reviewed
• In the event of a chargeback, we respond within required timeframes with order confirmation, IP logs, customer communications, and proof of delivery when applicable
• We track dispute ratios to ensure they remain within acceptable thresholds

All sales are final unless otherwise required by law.

We do not provide refunds or compensation based on:

• Collectible market value changes
• Market volatility
• Swap Spot value shifts
• Perceived value decline

Market risk is assumed entirely by the purchaser.

We reserve the right to:

• Refuse or cancel orders
• Limit quantities
• Correct pricing errors
• Cancel transactions suspected of fraud

BLK PACKS™ offers AR experiences on select collectible cards. By using AR features, you acknowledge:

• AR requires camera access on your device — the platform does not record, store, or transmit camera imagery
• 3D models displayed in AR are non-downloadable digital assets owned by BLK PACKS™
• AR experiences are accessed via Apple AR Quick Look (iOS) or Google Scene Viewer (Android) through the native app, or via the web using Google model-viewer
• AR view analytics (device type, duration, card viewed) are collected to improve the experience
• Physical AR-enabled cards contain QR codes that link to BLK PACKS™ hosted AR pages — these QR codes are not transferable licenses

Trade Types:

• Tap Trade — generates a 6-digit code valid for 5 minutes; both parties select a card and the swap executes instantly
• Event Trade (Scan-to-Match) — automatic matching of pending trades at live events; 15-minute expiry
• Remote Trade — asynchronous trade request sent to another collector; 24-hour expiry

Once a trade is completed, ownership of the digital collectibles is permanently transferred between the two accounts. Completed trades are final and irreversible.

Live Event Mode is a full-screen trading interface designed for live drops and collector meetups. It includes a real-time leaderboard, Tap Trade code display, and rapid card selection. Live Event Mode does not alter the trading rules above.

Rules:

• Both participants must stake a Digital Collectible of the same rarity tier (Common / Rare / Epic / Legendary)
• The system randomly designates one participant as the "Shooter" and rolls a 2-die sequence on the server
• Come-out roll: 7 or 11 = Shooter wins; 2, 3, or 12 = Shooter loses; any other value sets the "Point"
• Point phase: rolling the Point again = Shooter wins; rolling a 7 = Shooter loses; other rolls continue
• On resolution, both staked Digital Collectibles are atomically transferred to the winning user's Locker
• Participants may cancel a match only while it remains in the waiting state; once joined, matches are final and irreversible
• House Bot: to maintain match availability, BLK PACKS™ may operate an official house matchmaker ("House Bot") that automatically joins waiting matches after a configurable wait period. Dice remain server-generated and random; only the Shooter designation may be tilted in favor of the house. Users retain a meaningful chance to win in every match. When a user defeats the House Bot, their staked Digital Collectible is returned to their Locker (the house does not transfer an inventory card); when the House Bot wins, the user's staked Digital Collectible is transferred to the BLK PACKS™ house inventory.
• No player-controlled input influences the dice; the result is determined purely by server-side random generation after stakes are committed

By purchasing a physical pack, you receive: (a) the professionally graded physical card(s), (b) the matching Digital Collectible(s) in your Locker, (c) access to AR Quick Look for AR-enabled cards, and (d) eligibility to stake the Digital Collectible(s) in RUN IT 1V1 per Section 20. Physical packs are fulfilled by shipment to the address you provide or, in the case of eligible promotional packs, by email delivery of a unique Claim Code that you may redeem for physical fulfillment.

You may delete your account at any time from your Profile settings. Upon account deletion:

• Your account is permanently and instantly deactivated
• All digital collectibles in your Locker are forfeited and cannot be recovered
• Pack Points balance is permanently forfeited (no cash value)
• Trade history and activity records are retained for fraud prevention and legal compliance as required by law
• Personal information is deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy retention schedule
• Pending trades are automatically canceled

Account deletion is irreversible. This action cannot be undone.

Select collectible drops include a "First Rip" experience, where the first user to open a sealed pack receives a unique serial-numbered collectible. Serial numbers are:

• Assigned sequentially and permanently linked to the claiming account
• Displayed on the user's profile as proof of early participation
• Non-transferable between accounts (serial stays with the original ripper)
• Not redeemable for cash, points, or any monetary equivalent

Users may report abusive content, fraudulent trade behavior, or intellectual property violations through the in-app reporting system. Upon receiving a report, BLK PACKS™ will:

• Review all reports within 24-48 business hours
• Take appropriate action including content removal, account warnings, or account suspension
• Notify the reporting user of the outcome when required by policy

Filing a false or malicious report may result in action against the reporting account.

We comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. To submit a claim, provide:

1. Your name and contact information
2. Identification of the copyrighted work
3. Identification of the allegedly infringing material
4. Good-faith belief statement
5. Statement under penalty of perjury

We may remove content upon valid notice. Counter-notifications may be submitted in accordance with law.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its owners, affiliates, officers, and employees from any claims arising out of:

• Your misuse of the Platform
• Your violation of these Terms
• Your resale activities
• Your Swap Spot transactions

We reserve the right to suspend accounts, remove digital assets, restrict Swap Spot access, and terminate users at our sole discretion if violations occur.

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Platform constitutes acceptance of updated Terms.

19.1 Payment Authorization

By submitting payment, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the payment method provided, the billing information is accurate, and you are not initiating a purchase with intent to dispute or reverse payment.

19.2 Fraudulent Chargebacks

Initiating a chargeback without first contacting the Company for resolution may be considered payment abuse. We reserve the right to:

• Contest any chargeback with supporting documentation
• Submit delivery confirmation, order records, and digital logs to the payment processor
• Report fraudulent activity to payment processors and financial institutions
• Permanently ban associated accounts
• Restrict future purchases
• Pursue civil remedies where applicable

19.3 Digital Asset & Downloadable Products

Where digital assets or platform-based benefits have been delivered, activated, or accessed, a chargeback may constitute fraudulent use of services. Access logs, blockchain records (if applicable), system timestamps, and IP address records may be used as evidence of fulfillment.

19.4 Administrative Fees

We reserve the right to impose a reasonable administrative fee for payment disputes initiated in bad faith.

20.1 Pre-Orders

Certain products may be offered as pre-orders. By placing a pre-order, you acknowledge:

• The item is not yet manufactured or shipped
• Estimated ship dates are approximate and subject to change
• Production timelines may be impacted by supply chain delays or manufacturing schedules

Pre-orders reserve your allocation in a limited release.

20.2 Fulfillment Timeframes

Delivery timelines may vary due to manufacturing schedules, quality control processes, shipping carrier delays, and force majeure events. Estimated fulfillment dates are not guaranteed delivery dates.

20.3 No Cancellation After Production Lock

Once production has commenced, orders may not be canceled and deposits may be non-refundable.

20.4 Shipping Risk

Risk of loss transfers to the purchaser upon delivery to the carrier unless otherwise required by law. Customers are responsible for ensuring correct shipping information at checkout.

21.1 Transaction Integrity

We reserve the right to review any transaction for suspicious purchasing behavior, chargeback disputes, Swap Spot trades, and regulatory compliance purposes. Review may result in order cancellation or account suspension where integrity concerns arise.

21.1.a Public Authenticity Ledger — EMERGE

Every collectible issued on the BLK PACKS platform is recorded on EMERGE, our off-chain public verification ledger. Each record carries a deterministic Verification ID (format: COA-<CARD>-<YEAR>-BLK<SERIAL>) that anyone can look up at blkpacks.fun/verify without an account. EMERGE is the authoritative source of authenticity for all digital and digital + physical cards issued through the platform.

21.2 Anti-Fraud Monitoring

We actively monitor transactions for payment fraud, reshipping schemes, card testing, automated purchasing activity, and trading manipulation. We reserve the right to cancel suspicious orders, freeze accounts pending investigation, refuse service, and report fraudulent activity to appropriate authorities.

21.3 Compliance With Law

We comply with applicable anti-money laundering (AML) regulations, fraud prevention standards, payment processor rules, and export and trade restrictions. Users agree not to use the Platform for unlawful financial activity.

The Company reserves all rights not expressly granted herein. Nothing in these Terms shall be interpreted as limiting the Company's ability to protect its intellectual property, enforce platform integrity, defend against fraudulent claims, or protect against financial abuse.

23.1 What BLK PACKS™ Does

• Authenticates that a user-owned physical or digital card exists and is registered in our EMERGE ledger
• Launches a software-driven AR scene that may include stylized animations, comic/anime-inspired transformations, portals, fire/water/cosmic effects, original soundtracks, original UI overlays, and original 3D environments
• Provides original artistic compositions, original music, original sound design, original UI/UX, and original 3D scene authoring

23.2 What BLK PACKS™ Does NOT Do

• We do NOT issue, license, sublicense, redistribute, sell, or claim ownership of any third-party athlete name, image, likeness (NIL), team mark, league mark, broadcaster mark, manufacturer mark, or any other third-party intellectual property that may appear on a physical card a user happens to scan
• We do NOT claim affiliation with, endorsement by, sponsorship by, or partnership with the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, MLS, NCAA, Topps, Panini, Upper Deck, Bowman, Fleer, Donruss, Score, or any other professional sports league, players' association, team, broadcaster, manufacturer, trading-card publisher, or athlete
• We do NOT reproduce, redistribute, or commercially exploit any underlying third-party card art, athlete likeness, or sports IP. Our AR scenes are transformative artistic compositions (stylized hologram silhouettes, anime/comic transformations, portal effects, cosmic environments, original music, BLK PACKS™ branded UI) that constitute original software-driven entertainment experiences
• Any reference to a real athlete or team is purely incidental and descriptive — e.g., to allow the user to identify which card they already own — and is presented as the user's own property, not BLK PACKS™ inventory

23.3 User-Owned Cards / Bring-Your-Own-IP

The cards a user scans, photographs, or registers into the BLK PACKS™ platform are presumed to be already lawfully owned by the user (a physical card legally purchased on the secondary market, a digital card already in their possession, or a card minted by BLK PACKS™). BLK PACKS™ provides software that recognizes and enhances what the user already owns. We are not the issuer of any third-party card's underlying intellectual property.

23.4 Transformative / Fair-Use Posture

To the maximum extent permitted by law, BLK PACKS™ asserts that any incidental appearance of a third-party trademark or copyrighted card art on a user-scanned card, within the context of an AR enhancement experience, constitutes nominative fair use (the user needs to identify their own card to launch the AR scene) and that BLK PACKS™'s original software-generated AR scenes (animations, transformations, soundtracks, environments) are transformative original works that do not compete with, replace, or commercially substitute for the original card art.

23.5 Trademark Attribution

All third-party trademarks, service marks, trade names, product names, athlete names, team names, and league names that may appear on a user-scanned card are the property of their respective owners. Their incidental presence in the BLK PACKS™ AR pipeline is for the purpose of identifying the user's own existing collectible and does not imply any commercial relationship, endorsement, or sponsorship.

23.6 IP Owner Reporting

If you are an intellectual property owner and believe a BLK PACKS™ AR experience is overstepping the transformative/companion-software posture described above with respect to your specific IP, please contact dmca@blkpacks.fun. We will review in good faith and may modify, gate, or disable the affected AR scene.
