Terms & Conditions

Terms and Conditions – GearUp Factory Marketplace

These terms govern the listing, licensing, and usage of smart contract templates on the GearUp Factory Marketplace.

By using GearUp Factory and participating in the template marketplace, you agree to comply with the following terms and conditions:

---

1. Ownership and Intellectual Property

All templates created by users remain their intellectual property unless explicitly waived.

2. License to Showcase

By publishing a template, developers grant GearUp the right to list, showcase, and display template metadata on-platform and in associated marketplaces.

3. Template Schema Compliance

All templates must adhere to GearUp schema and format requirements to ensure compatibility with Studio and Factory environments.

4. Closed-Source Support

GearUp supports closed-source logic; however, developers must provide metadata and deployment behavior for minimal visibility.

5. Prohibited Content

Malicious, dangerous, plagiarized, or unauthorized logic will result in delisting and possible blacklisting.

6. Template Moderation

GearUp reserves the right to approve, suspend, or remove any listing without prior notice in order to maintain platform integrity.

7. Marketplace Fees

GearUp may apply a protocol or service fee on each template deployment or license sale. Fee details will be transparent at the point of listing.

8. Payouts to Developers

Revenue from deploys or license sales is routed directly to the wallet address provided by the template creator, minus any applicable fees.

9. Template Source Access

Purchasers of a license will only receive source visibility if explicitly allowed by the license type (e.g., view-only, open-source, etc.).

10. Template Reuse Policy

Licenses are non-transferable and tied to the purchaser's wallet unless a specific transferable license type is selected.

11. Sublicensing & Resale

Repackaging, sublicensing, or reselling GearUp templates or modified versions thereof is prohibited unless authorized in writing.

12. Testing and Verification

All developers are responsible for simulating and testing their contract logic prior to public listing or deployment.

13. Platform Liability

GearUp is not liable for any smart contract failures, logic bugs, gas costs, financial losses, or third-party misuse related to deployed contracts.

14. Security Best Practices

GearUp recommends developers follow Solidity and EVM best practices and conduct peer or external audits where possible.

15. Privacy of Contract Logic

GearUp will never share private template code unless made public or shared by the author. Scrappy AI explanations are schema-based, not code-based.

16. Access Revocation

GearUp reserves the right to revoke access to a template if it is discovered to breach the terms of this agreement.

17. Template Updates

Template authors can update their templates; however, changes affecting pricing or license rules must be re-reviewed.

18. Refunds and Chargebacks

All sales are final. Refunds will only be issued in the case of fraudulent deployment or proven technical malfunction during purchase.

19. Modification of Terms

GearUp reserves the right to update these terms at any time. Continued use of the platform constitutes acceptance of the modified terms.

20. Developer Identity

All developers must provide a verifiable wallet address. Pseudonymous submissions are permitted but must comply with all rules.

21. Multi-Chain Compatibility

Templates must specify supported networks and include fallback behavior for unsupported environments.

22. Source Mapping Disclosure

Any template that relies on off-chain logic or integrations must clearly disclose those dependencies in its metadata.

23. Forked Code Policy

Templates that are forks or derivatives must credit the original source and must comply with the original license.

24. Deployment Cost Transparency

Estimated deployment costs must be calculated and previewed for users prior to contract deployment.

25. Marketplace Exclusivity

Developers may list templates on multiple platforms unless specifically restricted by an exclusivity agreement.

26. Dynamic Pricing Tools

Templates may use dynamic pricing (based on token holdings, oracles, or external triggers) if clearly disclosed.

27. Template Obfuscation

Closed-source templates must not use code obfuscation techniques that hinder functional review by GearUp moderators.

28. Template Expiry

GearUp reserves the right to archive or expire templates that have not been updated or deployed within a defined timeframe.

29. User Wallet Reputation

Access to certain premium templates may be restricted based on wallet reputation, previous misuse, or flagged activity.

30. Third-Party Library Usage

Developers must disclose and verify any third-party libraries used within their smart contract logic.

31. Public Template Ratings

Users can rate and review templates post-deployment. GearUp reserves the right to moderate false or abusive reviews.

32. Revenue Sharing

Templates with shared ownership or team contributors must define a revenue split configuration at listing.

33. Audit Disclaimers

Templates marked as "Audited" must include the auditor name, link to report, and date of audit.

34. Interface Access Restriction

Templates may include access gating mechanisms, but must not simulate phishing or redirect to external contracts deceptively.

35. Revocation Logic

Templates must include optional revocation or pause logic where applicable for safety.

36. Legal Jurisdiction

All listings are bound by the legal jurisdiction of the developer's region unless otherwise specified in an external contract (Limited only incase of legal disputes).

37. Community Moderation

Verified community moderators may flag or report template abuse, subject to GearUp internal review.

38. Marketplace Evolution

Features, fee structures, and listing privileges are subject to change as the platform scales.

39. Support and Inquiries

Support requests related to template issues must be directed to the developer unless the issue relates to GearUp’s infrastructure.
