If you do not agree to the modified agreement, you have the right to stop using the relevant services. The parties may also separately modify the relevant services and corresponding agreement content through mutual consent.If you are under 18 years old, or if you are a person with no or limited civil capacity, please use the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet under the guidance of your parents or guardians. You must comply with the laws of your country or region, and you must confirm that entering into and performing this agreement does not violate the laws and regulations of the country or region where you belong, reside, or conduct business activities.

  1. Cregis Technology Limited: The service provider in this agreement, registered at Units 2525-2526, 25/F, Sun Hung Kai Centre, 30 Harbour Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong, hereinafter referred to as "Cregis" or "we".

  2. Cregis Self-Custodial MPC Wallet Infrastructure: A cross-network digital asset management software developed by Cregis Technology Limited based on blockchain technology, hereinafter referred to as "the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet".

  3. User: Users must be natural persons with full civil capacity.

  4. Create or Import Wallet: Refers to the process of using the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet, confirming compliance with this agreement, and creating or importing a wallet.

  5. Wallet Password: The password you enter as prompted by the software interface when creating the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet. This password is used for payment confirmation. Once lost, you need to re-import the wallet to reset a new password.

  6. Private Key: Composed of 256 random characters, it is the core element that allows users to own and use digital assets.

  7. Public Key: Generated through cryptographic principles from the private key in a one-way derivation, used to generate blockchain digital wallet addresses, which serve as public receiving addresses.

  8. Team: An organizational unit for user collaboration, where wallets, projects, approval workflows, and applications are all developed within the team's scope.

  9. Project: Users can perform project-based differentiated management within the same wallet according to their business needs. Projects support integration with applications to extend asset usage scenarios.

  10. Approval Workflow: Refers to a process where transactions meeting predefined conditions require sequential approval by personnel at each approval node. Only after final confirmation can the transaction take effect and be signed and sent to the blockchain network.

  11. Application: Application services developed by third-party organizations or companies independently of the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet. The specific service content is defined by third parties, and third-party application service providers bear full responsibility.

  12. MPC Sharding: MPC sharding is Cregis's technical solution for private key management of each wallet. Based on open-source and audited cryptographic algorithm code, Cregis splits the wallet's private key into multiple shards, with each shard being only a part of the original private key. In Cregis's product system, the generation and assembly of shards are performed in a TEE-isolated memory environment, and the original private key never appears during the assembly process.

  13. Mnemonic Phrase: Cregis combines random and encryption algorithms to provide unique mnemonic phrase generation. Users can use mnemonic phrases for key permission operations. Mnemonic phrases ensure that users have the highest authority over their assets, and Cregis will not read or store users' mnemonic phrases.

III. Cregis Service Content

The Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet is a non-financial institution payment service based on blockchain technology that we provide to you. You can make payments and receive funds through the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet.

Service functions include:

  1. Create or Import Wallet: Users will automatically create and generate new wallet addresses when registering for use. The Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet currently does not support importing external wallets. Users are responsible for any asset losses caused by forced imports.

  2. Transfer and Receipt: You can use the transfer and receipt functions of the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet to manage digital currencies by using MPC sharding for electronic signatures to modify the ledgers of relevant blockchains. Transfer refers to the payer using the payee's blockchain address to perform transfer operations. The actual transfer and receipt behaviors occur on the relevant blockchain network (not on the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet).

  3. Transaction Records: We will copy all or part of your transaction records through blockchain systems. However, transaction records are subject to the records maintained by blockchain systems.

  4. Service Suspension: You acknowledge that, based on the "irreversible" nature of blockchain system transactions, we cannot suspend or cancel transfer transactions and other operations for you. However, under certain circumstances, we can suspend or restrict a user's operations on the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet.

  5. Team Collaboration: Collaborative management of assets through teams with multiple people, with division of labor managed through personnel permission management within teams.

  6. Approval Workflow Settings: Users with permissions can set approval workflows. An approval workflow means that when a transaction meets the set conditions, it needs to be confirmed by personnel at each approval node in sequence according to the configured approval nodes. Only after final confirmation can the transaction take effect and be signed and sent to the blockchain.

  7. Application Integration: Applications refer to Web3 applications developed by relevant third-party developers. The Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet supports users in directly using specified applications within the wallet client through account authorization and interface integration. These applications are independent of the functions and responsibilities of the Cregis Self-Custodial Wallet, and final interpretation rights belong to the third-party application developers.

  8. Project Management: Projects are created based on wallets or applications. Users can further divide and manage business operations based on projects, achieving independent separation of personnel, data, and approvals.
