THESE ARE THE RULES

NFT Ownership Terms

Current version as of 15 August, 2022.

The following section provides the terms and conditions relating to the ownership of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) in the Orthoverse.

Ownership of the NFT Record

Each NFT is instantiated by a record in a mapping data structure (henceforth "the NFT Record") in the Orthoverse smart contract (henceforth "the Smart Contract"), which may be found here for reference. Each NFT Record comprises its own unique token identifier, and ownership of the token that it represents is recorded against said token identifier by an Ethereum address.

The Ethereum mainnet blockchain mediates ownership of each token through the Smart Contract, and you accept that the Orthoverse and its officers, directors, employees and agents (henceforth "The Orthoverse") is not able to influence, alter, delete or affect Smart Contract actions, or reverse or cancel any transaction relating to the ownership of your NFT.

As a holder of a private key corresponding to an address in an NFT Record you accept that you are solely responsible for exercising due care and attention in securing your private key, when transacting with the Smart Contract, and will indemnify and hold The Orthoverse harmless from and against any claims, disputes, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, and/or costs and expenses incurred or arising out of your interactions with the Ethereum mainnet blockchain, the Smart Contract, any other smart contract interacting with the Smart Contract, and/or any website providing an interface to the Ethereum mainnet blockchain and the smart contracts that it contains.

Ownership of the Metadata

Each NFT Record comprises a pointer (uniform resource locator, or URL) to a metadata file (henceforth "the Metadata"). As the holder of the copyright for the Metadata, we hereby release said copyright into the public domain under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International.

Ownership of the Underlying Art

Each Metadata comprises a pointer (uniform resource locator, or URL) to an image file (henceforth "the Underlying Art"). The Underlying Art may comprise: a Crest (shown twice, once in mirrored configuration), a Name, and a Land Image, as show in the following exemplary diagram:

As the holder of the copyright for the Underlying Art, we hereby release copyright of any and all Land Images and Names into the public domain under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International.

As the holder of the copyright for the Underlying Art, we hereby retain copyright of any and all Crests. As an owner of an NFT Record, we hereby grant you a sole, limited, non-transferable, non-assignable, and revocable commercial license (henceforth "the License") to the image of the Crest corresponding to the NFT Record you own, as indicated by the Metadata and the Underlying Art, said License transferring automatically to any new owner of the corresponding NFT Record when ownership of said NFT Record is transferred.

For the purposes of this agreement, "sole license" means a license which may only be granted to one licensee at a time, provides the licensee with the right to bring action against copyright infringement, excludes the licensor from granting licenses to any other person for the duration of the license, but does not exclude the licensor from using or exploiting the art or bringing action against copyright infringement.

The License permits you to reproduce, adapt, modify, prepare derivative works of, publicly display, and commercially exploit the Crest, subject to any usage restrictions on emblems or insignia applicable in your jurisdiction (henceforth "Usage Restrictions").

It is your responsibility to determine what Usage Restrictions apply, and you hereby indemnify and hold The Orthoverse harmless from and against any claims, disputes, demands, damages, losses, liabilities and or costs and expenses incurred or arising out of the violation of such Usage Restrictions.

Modification of this Agreement

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify this Agreement. All modifications become effective when they are posted, and we will notify you by updating the date at the top of this section.

Keep in mind that, just because you are a block-person walking around in a pixelated world, that doesn't mean that you should feel it is appropriate to behave in a manner that would be considered unacceptable in real life.

Don't be a jerk.
