Website and Public Beta Terms

“OceanAlt” is the brand and project name used for oceanalt.com and its public beta services. As of this version, the formal contracting and operating entity is still being established or confirmed. Responsibilities imposed on the actual operator by applicable law are not excluded merely by using a brand name or disclaimer.

When the formal operator is confirmed, OceanAlt will update its legal name, address, registration details, governing law and dispute mechanism. Material changes may require renewed acceptance.

OceanAlt provides public content, research, news, data, protocol ratings, Lab demonstrations, address-risk tools, Agent/KYA and payment-gateway tools, APIs and related experimental features concerning agentic payments and the agent economy.

Public content and free tools may be accessed by general visitors. Accounts, APIs, wallet connections, mainnet payments and Agent features are primarily intended for businesses, professionals and developers aged 18 or over.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, research, ratings, decisions and risk labels are not legal, investment, tax, audit or regulated compliance advice and do not guarantee transaction or asset safety.

Provide accurate information you are authorised to use and safeguard passwords, API credentials, agent secrets, wallets and devices.

OceanAlt will never ask for a wallet seed phrase or private key. Any request purporting to be from OceanAlt for such information should be treated as high-risk.

Report suspected compromise or security incidents to business@oceanalt.com.

Some demonstrations use simulated settlement, testnets or public data. Real mainnet features clearly display the network, asset, amount and recipient before action. Simulations, testnet activity and founder self-tests must not be represented as external customer adoption or market-wide transaction volume.

The Services may depend on wallets, blockchain networks, stablecoin issuers, RPC providers, data sources and third-party facilitators. Their outages, delays, rule changes or errors may affect OceanAlt.

OceanAlt may return allow, block, clear, caution, risky, uncertain or similar decisions on requests submitted through its interfaces, and may deny its own service with a 403 response or require additional verification.

These are technical, advisory assessments based on data and rules available at the time. False positives, false negatives, delay and missing evidence are possible. OceanAlt is not a government authority and its output is not an authoritative sanctions determination.

OceanAlt can affect only flows correctly integrated with its gateway. It cannot stop a user from bypassing OceanAlt and sending a direct on-chain transaction, nor can it reverse a finalised transaction.

OceanAlt's original research, rating methods, design, text, graphics, code and marks are protected by applicable intellectual-property law. Except for lawful quotation or express permission, you may not copy, scrape at scale, resell, misattribute or remove attribution.

Retain the original link and appropriate attribution when quoting OceanAlt content. Third-party content and marks remain with their owners.

You may not use the Services for money laundering, sanctions evasion, fraud, theft, extortion, malware, unauthorised access, manipulation of risk results, privacy or IP violations, harm to minors, access-control circumvention, or any unlawful activity.

You may not harm the Services, other users or third parties through automation beyond normal use, replay, concurrency attacks, probing, reverse engineering or otherwise. See the Acceptable Use Policy.

The Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis and may be changed, rate-limited, suspended or discontinued. OceanAlt does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation, fitness for a particular purpose, or absolute completeness or accuracy of screening, ratings, publication dates or research conclusions.

OceanAlt takes reasonable measures to verify content and maintain security, but you should exercise independent judgement for your use case; consult a qualified professional for high-risk or regulated decisions.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, OceanAlt and its current operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive or consequential loss arising from free beta services, third-party networks, wallet actions, market conditions, on-chain irreversibility or breach of these Terms.

Nothing excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including fraud, wilful misconduct, non-excludable gross negligence or mandatory consumer rights.

Paid API remedies are governed by the API and x402 Terms.

OceanAlt may restrict or terminate accounts, credentials, requests or features for security, compliance, stability or third-party requirements. We will explain reasons where reasonably practicable but will not disclose information that could help circumvent security or compliance controls.

Material changes will be notified through the site, account or other reasonable means and renewed acceptance will be sought where required.

Until the formal operator is confirmed, these Terms do not invent an exclusive governing law or forum. Mandatory applicable law and competent courts, tribunals and regulators remain unaffected.

Please first send the facts and requested remedy to business@oceanalt.com. The parties should attempt good-faith resolution for 30 days. Unresolved matters may be brought before a legally competent court, tribunal, arbitral body or regulator.

A future Singapore operator may use Singapore law and SIAC arbitration; a future Hong Kong operator may use Hong Kong law and HKIAC arbitration. Neither option is effective unless reviewed, published and accepted in a later version.
