In the absence of such a provision, the case shall be settled in accordance with the relevant legal requirements and principles of private law.
    3. 1.3The CO2IN services allow individuals and legal entities to indirectly influence the trading of emission allowances and engage in the subsequent reduction of the CO2 emissions in a transparent and verifiable manner, particularly by enabling Token Transfer.

    1. 3.1The Company and the Client shall enter into a contractual relationship by concluding the Framework Agreement. The Framework Agreement shall be concluded exclusively through the Application as a means of remote communication. The Framework Contract shall become effective when the Client electronically signs the Framework Contract in the version offered to the Client for conclusion via the Application using the Authentication Features. The Company determines the text of the Framework Agreement, and the Client cannot change or amend it and may either accept it in full or reject it. The Framework Agreement shall become effective when the Account is made available to the Client in the Application. The Client will also gain access to additional CO2IN Services when the Framework Agreement becomes effective; however, until Verification is performed, the Client will only be entitled to deposit funds into the Account up to the Base Limit, CO2IN Services will be limited to the extent of the Base Limit, and it will not be possible to withdraw funds from the Account.
    2. 3.2If Verification of the Client is performed, the Client shall be notified of this fact in the Application and the CO2IN Services above the Base Limit shall be made available to the Client, including the Client's right to deposit funds into the Account exceeding the Base Limit. The Company is entitled to limit the total amount of funds deposited into the Account by the Limit, with the standard Limit being set out in the Fee Schedule.
    3. 3.3As part of the Verification process, the Company performs and evaluates a risk assessment of the Client, which is further performed during the term of the contractual relationship. Should the Client's risk profile change, the Company is entitled to change the Client's individual Limit. The current amount of the Client's Limit is indicated in the Application.
    4. 3.4The Client expressly agrees to the Verification and the form of their authentication and the form of authorisation specified in the GTC and the Documents. Should the Verification not be carried out, although initiated by the Client or the Company, or should the Client fail to provide the required cooperation to carry out the Verification, the Company is entitled to withdraw from the Framework Agreement.
    5. 3.5A Client under the age of 18 is entitled to use the CO2IN Services on a limited basis following the Company's rules for underage Clients. In particular, the Company is entitled to set a reduced Limit for crediting funds to the Account for Clients under 18.
    6. 3.6The Client must be registered in the Application for the entire duration of the contractual relationship. The Client is entitled to register in the Application only once, to have only one Account and to use all identification means and data (such as telephone number and e-mail address) only once for the purposes of registration, Account operation and authentication (e. g., the Client may not use the same telephone number or e-mail address to set up and operate multiple Accounts, authenticate or authorise multiple persons, etc.). The Client shall not be entitled to use an Account registered as a consumer Account for business purposes and vice versa. The Client is required to have an internet connection to use the Application. A breach of any obligation in this paragraph constitutes an Event of Default.
    7. 3.7The Company shall have the right to replace the signature of persons authorised to act on behalf of the Company by printed or mechanical means (e. g. scan, stamp), including the signature of the Framework Agreement and any amendments thereto.
    8. 3.8All acts performed via remote communication shall be deemed to have been done in writing.
    9. 3.9The Client enters the Application and authorises their instructions and operations, particularly the withdrawal of funds to the Account and Token Transfer, within the Application by using the Authentication Features.
    10. 3.10The Client shall not be entitled to modify or supplement the draft Framework Agreement in any way. If the Client delivers to the Company a signed draft of the Framework Agreement containing amendments, reservations, limitations or other changes, this shall be deemed a rejection of the Company's proposal, and the Framework Agreement shall not be concluded.
    11. 3.11The Company shall not be liable to the Client or any other person for any loss suffered as a result of written communication or document provided by the Client, which the Company in good faith and in the exercise of such level of care as is standard in the conduct of the Company's business, believed to be genuine or executed by the Client or a person authorised to act for the Client, was not a written communication and/or document genuine or executed by the Client or a person authorised to act for the Client.
    12. 3.12The Framework Agreement is concluded for an indefinite period of time.
    13. 3.13The Company is entitled to limit the availability of the Application and the ability to register and enter into the Framework Agreement at the Company's sole discretion.
  4. 4.TOKEN AND ACCOUNT
    1. 4.1The primary purpose and intent of the Token are to reduce the carbon footprint and greenhouse gas emissions and to help educate Clients about issues concerning environmental protection. The purpose of the Token is also to implement the Token Transfer. The Token is not intended for investment purposes.
    2. 4.2A Token is prorated to an Allowance, where one Allowance equals one hundred (100) Tokens. Thus, one Token is equivalent to one hundredth (1/100th) of an Allowance. However, for the purposes of the Disposal of the Allowance, one Allowance corresponds to one hundred and twenty-one (121) Tokens due to the fact that the Company is required to pay value-added tax on the Disposal of the Allowance. Should the rate of value-added tax change, the Company is entitled to unilaterally adjust the ratio of Token to Allowance pursuant to the preceding sentence to reflect the current rate of value-added tax that the Company is required to pay on the Disposal of the Allowance.
    3. 4.3The Client acknowledges that the current legal regulation of the Token and its disposition is only partial and incomplete and that this state of affairs and the interpretation of the legal provisions still in force may change in the future. The Client undertakes to fully respect such changes and the related modifications to these GTC.
    4. 4.4The Client is fully aware of all risks associated with the Token, the Token Transfer and the nature and storage of the Token. In particular, the Client acknowledges that the Token's value is based on the existence and value of the Allowance, its liquidity and legal nature, with all risks arising therefrom. The Company does not provide, nor is capable of providing, liquidity in the market for Allowances; consequently, in particular, the Company cannot guarantee that in the event of reduced liquidity or the collapse of the market for Allowances, it will be able to sell Allowances held by the Company and subsequently settle the Tokens issued. Anticipated or possible increases in the value of a Token cannot be guaranteed. The past value of a Token is no guarantee of future increases in value; therefore, there is also a risk of fluctuations in the value of a Token.
    5. 4.5After depositing funds into the Account, the Client may request the Company to issue a Token. The funds in the Account are held in EUR. All payments are cashless. Funds in the Account shall not bear interest.
    6. 4.6The Client is entitled to credit the Account with funds in EUR or CZK. In case of depositing funds into the Account in CZK currency, the relevant amount will be converted into EUR at the exchange rate of the Czech National Bank valid at the Time of Conversion plus the amount specified in the Fee Schedule. Immediately after the Conversion Time, the deposit of the converted funds into the Account shall be displayed in the Application. If the Client transfers funds to the Account in a currency other than EUR or CZK, the Client acknowledges that the funds will be converted at the applicable exchange rate and may be charged fees in accordance with the Fee Schedule and/or fees of the relevant bank; the other provisions of this Section shall not be affected.
    7. 4.7The Client is entitled to withdraw the funds in the Account, in which case the funds will be credited to the Client's bank account. The funds may be withdrawn only after Verification has been carried out. If the funds deposited in the Account are withdrawn to the Client's bank account maintained in CZK, the appropriate amount shall be converted from EUR at the exchange rate of the Czech National Bank valid at the time of the exchange by the Company's employee, reduced by the amount specified in the Fee Schedule.
    8. 4.8The Company may temporarily block the Account in the following cases:
      1. 4.8.1Suspicion of unauthorised access to the Account;
      2. 4.8.2Suspicion that a person other than the Client has made changes to the Account;
      3. 4.8.3Doubts about the accuracy of the Client's personal data;
      4. 4.8.4Conducting a Token Transfer, depositing or withdrawing funds from the Account in an unusual amount or volume;
      5. 4.8.5Suspicion of a risk of harm;
      6. 4.8.6A serious or repeated breach of the Client's obligations.
    9. 4.9The Company shall inform the Client about the temporary blocking of the Account.
  5. 5.TOKEN TRANSFER
    1. 5.1The Client is entitled, but not obliged, to deposit funds into the Account, transfer funds therefrom to their verified bank account and/or execute a Token Transfer once the Framework Agreement is concluded and becomes effective. The Client is entitled to make a Token Transfer only through the Application and only with the Company or another Client (a third party who has set up their own Account in the Application and entered into the Framework Agreement). The Company is entitled to charge a fee for the Token Transfer according to the Fee Schedule. The Company is responsible for the Token transfer via the Application. The Fee Schedule shall determine the minimum amount of each deposit of funds into the Account.
    2. 5.2The application displays the current reference price of the Token derived from the market price of the Allowance, for which it is traded on the regulated market, as well as the price that the Company offers to issue the Token, and the price that the Company offers to settle the obligation arising from the issued Token.
    3. 5.3By publishing the price of the Token, the Company makes an offer to the Client to issue (the emission of) the Token. If the Client accepts the Company's proposal to issue a Token at the published Token price (referred to as "BUY" in the Application for the sake of simplicity), the Company will release the required number of Tokens to the Client and deduct the corresponding funds from the Client's Account.
    4. 5.4Following the issuance of Tokens, the Company will hold the relevant number of Allowances in its own name in its own accumulated Account under the Allowance Trading Act. The Allowances shall become the property of the Company, and the Client is not entitled to transfer title to the Allowances or the right to redeem Allowances owned by the Company.
    5. 5.5The Company shall purchase Allowances solely for the Account and on behalf of the Company. The Client shall not be entitled to take possession of the Allowances in exchange for Tokens.
    6. 5.6By disclosing the Token price, the Company simultaneously makes an offer to the Client to settle the obligation arising from the issued Token. If the Client accepts the Company's offer to settle the liability from the issued Token at the disclosed Token price (referred to as "SELL" in the Application for the sake of simplicity), the Company is entitled to settle the Client's claim arising from the ownership of the Token, except for cases specified in the Documents, in particular in Article 5.10 of the GTC. The settlement of the Client's claim arising from the Token issued shall terminate the Token.
    7. 5.7The Token Transfer not involving the Company is carried out exclusively between Clients, i. e., between third parties holding the Account, and only through the Application. The Client is not entitled to execute the Token Transfer with persons other than other Clients, nor is the Client entitled to use any means other than the Application to perform the Token Transfer. A breach of any of the obligations specified in this Section shall be deemed an Event of Default.
    8. 5.8Upon the Client's request, the Company undertakes to perform the Disposal of the Allowance in exchange for Tokens. If the number of Tokens intended for the Disposal of the Allowance is divisible by 121, the Company undertakes to perform the Disposal of the Allowance in the appropriate number within three (3) business days. If the number of Tokens intended for the Disposal of the Allowance is not divisible by 121, the Company undertakes to perform the Disposal of the Allowance to the extent of the number of Tokens not divisible by 121 only when the cumulative number of Tokens of all Clients to be used for the Disposal of the Allowance reaches 121. Along with the Disposal of the Allowance, the Company shall dispose of the Tokens used for the Disposal of the Allowance.
    9. 5.9The current number of Tokens and the EUR wallet balance is shown in the Account.
    10. 5.10The Company shall be entitled to refuse to deposit funds into the Account and/or Transfer Token in the following cases: (i) For reasons provided for by law; (ii) If the statements made by the Client in connection with the Framework Agreement are not complete, accurate or true in all respects; (iii) If the Company has reasonable doubt that the Token Transfer has been made by the Client or a person authorised to act for the Client; (iv) If execution of such activity could result in a breach of the law; (v) If the Client is in default of any monetary debt owed to the Company; (vi) If the Client has been adjudicated bankrupt; (vii) For operational reasons; (viii) Due to a potential conflict of interest between the Company and the Client; (ix) If the Client exceeds the maximum amount that may be credited to the Account in aggregate under the Framework Agreement; (x) If the Company has insufficient number of Allowances available; (xii) The Token cannot be issued at the price asked by the Client or settled at the price offered by the Company; (xiii) The liquidity in the market for Allowances cannot be ensured (temporarily or permanently), which makes it impossible to sell Allowances owned by the Company in particular and/or (xiv) the price of the Token has not been disclosed. The Company shall be entitled to refuse to execute a Token Transfer under this provision retrospectively and no later than the end of the next business day.
    11. 5.11The Company is entitled to impose volume limitations on the CO2IN Services, without prior notice, particularly limitations on the number of Token Transfers per Client or the number of Tokens issued. The Company will inform about the said limitation through the Application so that no Token Transfer will take place.
    12. 5.12The Token Transfer shall be carried out during business hours and in accordance with the operating conditions of the Application and the Company, or the persons performing, arranging or supervising the Token Transfers and, depending on the nature of the matter, other persons involved. If a Token Transfer cannot be carried out under the Documents, i. e., in particular, due to delays by third parties and the non-functionality and/or failure of the Application, the Company does not guarantee that the relevant Token Transfer will be carried out and shall not be liable for any damage caused by (i) any delay between the Client's request and the execution of the Token Transfer or (ii) the failure to execute the Token Transfer.
