GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

We hereby notify that there is a risk of loss of personal funds when holding Crypto-assets and carrying out operations with them. The value of Crypto-assets may increase or decrease. Moreover, there may be a risk of losing personal funds when buying, selling, storing or investing in Crypto-assets.
Trading in Crypto-assets also carries particular risks that are not usually inherent in official currencies. Unlike most currencies, which are supported by governments or other legal entities, or commodities such as gold or silver, Crypto-assets are a unique kind of “unsecured” currency supported by technology and trust.

To use the Service provider's Services, You must be at least 18 years old or have reached the legal age of majority and contractual capacity in Your jurisdiction, but not older than 70 years. This age restriction is implemented because persons over the age of 70 may have difficulty navigating modern technologies, which increases the risk of financial loss, including due to the actions of fraudsters. This limitation is primarily related to our concern for the financial security of such persons.

We do not provide any investment advice relating to our Crypto-asset services. You should carefully consider whether Your personal situation and the financial risks You are willing to take mean that You should not buy Crypto-assets. You may want to speak to an independent financial adviser.

 

This Agreement is between You and the Service Provider.

Pursuant to this Agreement the Service Provider provides the following Crypto-asset services:

1. exchange of Crypto-assets for funds (official fiat currency);

2. exchange of Crypto-assets for other Crypto-assets (e.g. Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDC, Solana etc.);

a. Online Platform: Transactions are conducted via the Client's account on the Service Provider's website (www.alteway.com).

b. OTC (Over-the-Counter) Services: Personalized services are provided through a dedicated account manager. These services are tailored to individual requirements, including VIP services and solutions for the exchange of large amount of Crypto-assets and official currency.

c. P2P (Peer-to-Peer) Marketplaces: Crypto-asset trading (buying and selling) is facilitated via peer-to-peer escrow marketplaces in accordance with the applicable terms of use of such platforms.
