LAST UPDATED Jun 01, 2023
This NFT Purchase Agreement (this “
Agreement
”) is a legally binding agreement by and between Immersive
Contents Studio (“
Totality
”)
and the initial and any subsequent purchaser of the Heritor’s
Soul, or the Heritor, or the Dimension, or the Fragment (defined
below) (“
you
” or “
Purchaser
”). Totality and each Purchaser may be referred to throughout this
Agreement collectively as the “Parties” or individually as a
“Party”. Any NFTs published by Heritart (Heritor’s Soul, Heritor,
Dimension, Fragment) may be referred as the “Heritart NFT”.
WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU ARE AGREEING (EXCEPT AS
SPECIFIED BELOW) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND TOTALITY
THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT.
PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 10 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” BELOW FOR
DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A
JURISDICTION WHERE APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS ARBITRATION OF
DISPUTES, THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IN SECTION 10 WILL NOT APPLY
TO YOU BUT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 9 “GOVERNING LAW” OR RELEVANT
PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE LAW WILL STILL APPLY. FOR THE AVOIDANCE
OF DOUBT, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED AS AN
OBLIGATION ON TOTALITY TO CREATE / PROVIDE ANY ACCESS RIGHTS IN
RELATION TO HERITART NFTS.
1. AGREEMENT TO TERMS
(a) General
By purchasing a Heritart NFT, you acknowledge that you have
carefully read and agree to the terms of this Agreement. “Heritart
NFT” (referring to all Heritor’s Soul, Heritor, Dimension,
Fragment) means a non-fungible token (NFT) (i.e., a controllable
electronic record recorded on a blockchain). Each Heritart NFT is
digital in nature and is not linked to and is not sold together
with (i) any items or representations that have physical
dimensions such as mass or volume, or (ii) any Access Rights (as
defined below) as of the time of purchase. However, Fragment NFTs,
among the Heritart NFTs, may exceptionally be linked to and be
sold together with (i) items or representations that have physical
dimensions such as mass or volume as of the time of purchase,
despite its digital nature. This Agreement governs your
participation in the Primary Transactions on
https://heritart.io/
(the “
Website
”) and
https://heritartmeta.io/
(also the “
Website
”) as well as Secondary Transactions between Transferors and
Transferees (as defined below).
(b) Additional Terms
The access and use of the Website are subject to the separate
terms of the Website available at
https://heritart.io/
: Purchaser further acknowledges that Purchaser has carefully read
and has accepted the (i) Website Terms of Service (the “
Website Terms
”) and (ii) the Website Privacy Policy (the “
Website Privacy Policy
”) because the Website Terms and the Website Privacy Policy govern
its use of the Website. This Agreement controls if there is a
conflict between, on the one hand, any of the Website Terms or the
Website Privacy Policy, and, on the other hand, this Agreement,
with respect to Heritart NFT.
2. OWNERSHIP OF HERITART NFT
(a)
When Purchaser acquires an Heritart NFT, Purchaser owns all
personal property rights to that Heritart NFT (e.g., the right to
freely sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of that Heritart NFT).
No other rights of any kind or nature with respect to the Heritart
NFT or any image or other intellectual property associated with,
related to, or linked to, a Heritart NFT are granted or licensed
to Purchaser.
(b)
Ownership of a Heritart NFT may following the date hereof entitle
the Purchaser to certain tangible or rights, benefits, interests,
preferences, or privileges herein offered from time to time by
Totality or third parties in their respective sole discretion (“
Access Rights
”). Access Rights, if any, will be offered pursuant to separate
terms (whether written or unwritten) published from time to time
by Totality, or the applicable third party.
(c)
Purchaser represents and warrants that Purchaser will not transfer
a Heritart NFT in any Secondary Transaction to a Transferee who is
designated or specified under regulations made under the Sanctions
and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 (Chapter 13) of the laws of
England and Wales (“
Prohibited Transferee
”). A “Secondary Transaction” means any transaction in which a
Heritart NFT is sold by one owner to another owner, or is
otherwise transferred, distributed, or disseminated (regardless of
whether consideration is paid) in any manner that is not a Primary
Transaction; and “Primary Transaction” means a transaction
facilitated through the Website in which a Heritart NFT is first
sold to Purchaser.
(d)
For the avoidance of doubt, without limiting Section 2(a), nothing
contained in this Agreement will be deemed to grant Purchaser any
rights in or to any image or other intellectual property
associated with, related to, or linked to, a Heritart NFT,
including any right to use such image or intellectual property for
any non-personal or commercial purposes, or to create any
derivative works of such image or intellectual property.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the limited extent that an image
is displayed as a result of the operation of the smart contract
related to the Heritart NFT in connection with Purchaser’s use of
a Heritart NFT in accordance with this Agreement, Purchaser will
have the right to display such image for Purchaser’s own personal,
non-commercial purpose for so long as Purchaser owns the Heritart
NFT.
3. PAYMENT AND FEES
(a) Purchase and Sale.
Purchaser hereby agrees to purchase the Heritart NFT at the price

with the procedures set forth on the Website (the “

its sole discretion) of any applicable diligence and other
processes as requested by the Totality. If the Purchaser fails to
meet any of the conditions above, Totality may suspend the
delivery of the purchased Heritart NFT or terminate the Primary
Transaction. Totality
reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to limit the number of
