Terms of Service
Last updated: September 21, 2026
Agreement to Terms
By accessing or using the Rift website, protocol, applications, repositories, documentation, or any related services (collectively, the “Platform”), you acknowledge that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE PLATFORM. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Definitions
For purposes of these Terms, “Rift” refers to the contributors and maintainers of code and related materials published under the Rift name. “You” and “your” refer to the user accessing or using the Platform.
Eligibility and Compliance
You represent and warrant that you are legally permitted to use the Platform under the laws of your jurisdiction and any other applicable laws. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with all laws, regulations, and policies, including tax, reporting, sanctions, and anti-money laundering obligations. Rift makes no representation that the Platform is available or appropriate for use in all jurisdictions.
Tokenized Stocks; Geographic and Investor Restrictions
Access to tokenized stocks and related trading, swap, and transfer features on the Platform is subject to additional geographic and investor eligibility restrictions. You must not use these features if any of the following restrictions apply to you:
- United States: These features are not available to anyone located in or resident in the United States, or to U.S. Persons as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. You must not offer, sell, deliver, or otherwise transact in tokenized stocks through the Platform, directly or indirectly, in the United States or for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person.
- Prohibited investor jurisdictions: These features are not available to persons located in, resident in, or entities organized in Cuba, Belarus, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, Ukraine, South Sudan, Sudan, Myanmar, or Venezuela, or to anyone acting for their account or benefit.
- Other restricted jurisdictions: Canada, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland are subject to additional offering, sale, distribution, and delivery restrictions. You must not use tokenized-stock features where the relevant activity is prohibited or unless you satisfy all applicable legal and issuer eligibility requirements.
- Additional restrictions: You must comply with the applicable token issuer’s current jurisdiction restrictions, investor eligibility requirements, Base Prospectus, and Final Terms, as well as the Platform’s sanctions restrictions. A jurisdiction’s absence from the list above does not establish eligibility.
These jurisdiction references are based on the Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited restricted jurisdictions notice, reviewed September 14, 2026. Issuer restrictions may change and may differ between tokenized-stock products. You are responsible for confirming your eligibility before each transaction.
By using tokenized-stock features, you represent and warrant that you and any person for whose account or benefit you act are eligible. You must not use VPNs, proxies, false location or identity information, intermediary wallets, or other means to evade these restrictions. Technical access to a feature or token does not constitute permission to use it. Rift may restrict or disable access to tokenized-stock features to enforce these Terms.
Non-Custodial; Self-Directed Activity
The Platform is non-custodial. You retain full control of your wallets and private keys at all times. You are solely responsible for managing your keys, addresses, network fees, and transaction parameters. You acknowledge that blockchain transactions are generally irreversible and final once submitted.
ABSOLUTE ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND NO LIABILITY
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT RIFT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY LOSSES, DAMAGES, CLAIMS, COSTS, OR EXPENSES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
- Losses due to sending assets to an incorrect, incompatible, or unintended address.
- Losses due to incorrect amounts, slippage, or price movement, including front-running or MEV.
- Losses due to software bugs, exploits, vulnerabilities, network failures, chain reorganizations, or downtime.
- Losses due to lost, compromised, or mismanaged private keys, seed phrases, or devices.
- Losses due to user error, misunderstanding of instructions, or failure to double-check transaction details.
- Losses due to third-party services, wallets, bridges, relayers, oracles, APIs, or exchanges.
- Losses due to regulatory changes, tax obligations, or enforcement actions affecting your ability to use the Platform.
- Losses due to market volatility, impermanent loss, liquidity risks, insolvency of counterparties, or protocol parameter changes.
- Any other losses or damages of any kind, for any reason whatsoever.
YOU AGREE THAT YOU BEAR FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS AND THAT RIFT OWES YOU NO DUTY AND ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THIS RISK, DO NOT USE THE PLATFORM.
Irreversible Transactions; Incorrect Addresses and Amounts
Transactions you authorize may be irreversible. You are solely responsible for ensuring that recipient addresses, networks, and amounts are correct. RIFT CANNOT REVERSE OR RECOVER FUNDS THAT YOU SEND IN ERROR, INCLUDING (WITHOUT LIMITATION) IF YOU SEND FUNDS TO THE WRONG ADDRESS, ON THE WRONG NETWORK, OR IN THE WRONG AMOUNT.
Order Execution; Indicative Quotes; No Maximum Slippage Protection
By submitting an order, you acknowledge, understand, and agree that:
- No maximum slippage protection: The Platform does not enforce a maximum slippage limit on your order. Your order may execute with slippage exceeding the estimate shown in its quote.
- Indicative quotes: Any displayed quote, execution price, or estimated output is indicative only, not exact or guaranteed. A quote is not a commitment to deliver a particular rate or output amount.
- Dynamic execution: Your order executes at the best rate available from the providers capable of fulfilling that order at the time of execution. The actual execution rate and output amount are determined dynamically at runtime and may differ materially from the indicative quote, including an output amount substantially lower than the estimate.
- High-slippage estimates: If the quote estimates very high slippage, you should expect very high slippage at execution, and actual slippage may be worse than estimated. Submitting the order confirms that you accept this risk and the output amount determined dynamically at runtime.
User Responsibilities
You agree to:
- Carefully review all transaction details, including recipient addresses, network, and amounts before submitting.
- Maintain the security and confidentiality of your private keys and devices.
- Assume full responsibility for fees, gas, slippage, and other transaction parameters.
- Use the Platform only for lawful purposes and in compliance with applicable laws.
- Accept the risk of irreversible transactions and permanent loss due to user error or third-party issues.
Prohibited Conduct
You may not engage in any activity that: (a) violates laws or regulations; (b) infringes intellectual property, privacy, or other rights; (c) attempts to interfere with or disrupt the Platform; (d) involves fraud, deception, or market manipulation; or (e) seeks unauthorized access to any systems or data.
Sanctions, Export Controls, and Prohibited Jurisdictions
You represent, warrant, and covenant that you will NOT use the Platform if you are a sanctioned person, entity, or wallet address, or if you are located in, resident of, or otherwise accessing the Platform from a sanctioned or embargoed jurisdiction. Without limitation, this includes prohibitions under OFAC (U.S. Department of the Treasury), BIS (U.S. Department of Commerce), the U.S. State Department, the United Nations, the European Union, and HM Treasury (UK), as applicable.
- You are not listed on, controlled by, or acting on behalf of any person or entity on sanctions lists (e.g., OFAC SDN List, BIS Denied Persons/Entity Lists, EU/UN/HMT lists).
- You will not interact with or route transactions to/from any wallet address designated or blocked by OFAC or other sanctions authorities.
- You are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or accessing the Platform from embargoed or sanctioned regions (including, without limitation, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, or Luhansk regions of Ukraine, and any other region subject to comprehensive sanctions).
- You will not use VPNs, proxies, or any method to circumvent geofencing, IP blocks, or other compliance controls.
- You acknowledge and agree that Rift may restrict, geofence, or block access, and may block or disable interactions with certain addresses to comply with laws and sanctions.
- Sending funds from an address flagged by the Platform’s compliance controls results in automatic, programmatic freezing of those funds. The Rift team cannot override this programmatic freeze or rescue, recover, return, or unfreeze the funds. By sending funds, you acknowledge and accept this risk.
RIFT DOES NOT ALLOW USE FROM SANCTIONED REGIONS OR BY SANCTIONED PARTIES OR ADDRESSES. BY USING THE PLATFORM, YOU AFFIRM THAT NONE OF THE ABOVE RESTRICTIONS APPLY TO YOU.
Taxes and Reporting
You are solely responsible for all taxes, duties, and reporting obligations related to your use of the Platform. Rift does not provide tax reporting or advice.
Open Source and Third-Party Components
Parts of the Platform may be open source or rely on third-party libraries, smart contracts, infrastructure, or services. Your use of such components is subject to their respective terms, which you must review independently. Rift does not control and is not responsible for any third-party services or code.
No Fiduciary or Custodial Relationship
Your use of the Platform does not create any fiduciary, custodial, partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship with Rift. You agree that no such relationship is formed and that Rift has no special duties to you beyond these Terms.
No Offer, Solicitation, or Brokerage
The Platform does not constitute an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any asset, nor does it provide brokerage, clearing, or intermediary services. Rift does not execute or clear transactions on your behalf and does not take custody of your assets.
Protocol Changes; Upgrades; Availability
Rift may, at any time and without liability, modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Platform, including access to certain features or regions. Rift may update these Terms by posting a revised version with a new “Last updated” date. Your continued use of the Platform constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Rift and its contributors, developers, affiliates, and service providers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to your use of the Platform, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of any third party.
Limitation of Liability and Cap
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL RIFT’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS RELATING TO THE PLATFORM EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID (IF ANY) TO RIFT FOR USE OF THE PLATFORM IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY; IN SUCH CASES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION SHALL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
Governing Law; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
To the extent permitted by law, disputes will be resolved through binding arbitration on an individual basis, and you waive any right to pursue class or representative actions. Where arbitration is not enforceable, disputes shall be brought in the courts having jurisdiction in an appropriate venue under applicable law.
Contact
If you have questions about these Terms, you may reach out via our public channels listed on the site. Do not share private keys or sensitive information in any communication.
BY ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREED TO THESE TERMS, INCLUDING THE DISCLAIMERS, LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK PROVISIONS ABOVE.
