Terms & Conditions
Last updated 3 July 2026
1. Agreement to These Terms
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and AU Crypto Corp, trading as "AU" (formerly "FTSO AU") ("AU", "we", "us" or "our"), a company registered in the Republic of Panama with its registered office at Via España, Delta Bank Building, 6th Floor, Suite 604D, Panama City, Republic of Panama. These Terms govern your access to and use of the website at https://au.cc, its subdomains — including the application hosted at https://app.au.cc (the "App") — and all content, tools, data, dashboards and services made available through them (collectively, the "Site").
By accessing the Site you agree to be bound by these Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE TERMS, YOU ARE PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SITE AND MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.
We may revise these Terms at any time in our sole discretion by posting the updated version on the Site and updating the "Last updated" date. You waive any right to receive specific notice of each change. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
The Site is intended for users who are at least 18 years old. The information on the Site is not intended for distribution to or use by any person in any jurisdiction where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or would subject us to any registration requirement. You are solely responsible for compliance with the laws of your own jurisdiction.
2. Who We Are — Infrastructure, Not Financial Services
AU operates blockchain infrastructure on the Flare and Songbird networks, including a validator and an FTSO data provider. In connection with that infrastructure, the Site publishes information, statistics, dashboards and educational content about those networks.
You acknowledge and agree that:
- We never take custody of your assets. Delegation and staking on Flare and Songbird are non-custodial protocol mechanisms. Your tokens remain in your own wallet at all times, and we have no access to, or control over, your wallets, private keys or funds.
- Rewards are not guaranteed. Any delegation or staking rewards are determined and distributed by the network protocols, not by us. Reward rates, APRs and similar figures shown on the Site are estimates that can change at any time. We make no promise of any return, yield or reward.
- We do not control the networks. Flare, Songbird and related protocols are public, decentralised systems. We are not responsible for their operation, availability, forks, upgrades, governance decisions, protocol failures, exploits or changes to reward mechanics.
- Nothing on the Site is advice. No content on the Site — including blog posts, statistics, comparisons, rankings, guides and AI assistant responses — constitutes financial, investment, legal, accounting or tax advice, or a recommendation, solicitation or offer to buy or sell any digital asset. Always do your own research and consult a qualified professional before making decisions.
- You bear all risk of your on-chain actions. All transactions you sign — including wrapping, delegating, staking, claiming and transferring — are executed by you, at your own risk, and are generally irreversible. You are solely responsible for securing your wallets, keys and recovery phrases.
3. Digital Asset Risk
Digital assets are volatile and speculative and involve significant risk, including the possible loss of the entire value of your holdings. Risks include, without limitation: price volatility; protocol, smart contract and software bugs; validator or data provider penalties imposed by the protocol; network congestion or outages; loss of keys; regulatory change; and the actions of third parties. You represent that you understand these risks and that your use of the Site and any network is entirely at your own risk.
4. AI Assistant
The Site includes an AI assistant ("Sparky") that generates responses using third-party large language models and live network data. You acknowledge and agree that:
- AI-generated output may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated or misleading, and is provided for general information only. You must independently verify anything material before relying on it;
- AI output is not financial, investment, legal or tax advice, and no statement by the assistant creates any commitment, warranty or obligation on our part;
- the assistant is operated by AU, which also runs a validator and FTSO data provider, and comparisons or mentions of AU's own services should be read with that in mind;
- you will not use the assistant to attempt to extract its instructions, bypass its restrictions, generate unlawful content, or send abusive, automated or excessive traffic;
- we may limit, suspend or discontinue the assistant at any time without notice, and may review conversations for abuse prevention and quality purposes.
5. The App (app.au.cc)
The App is a non-custodial interface for interacting with the Flare and Songbird networks — including wrapping, delegating, staking and claiming rewards. The App does not hold your assets or keys; every transaction is constructed for your review and must be signed by you in your own wallet. You are solely responsible for reviewing each transaction before signing it and for the consequences of any transaction you sign.
The App interacts with smart contracts deployed by the Flare Foundation and other third parties that we do not control and cannot modify. We make no warranty as to the behaviour, security or continued availability of any smart contract, and we are not liable for losses arising from smart contract bugs, exploits, protocol changes or network failures. We may add, change, suspend or remove App features at any time without notice.
6. FTSO Auto-Claim Service
The App allows you to authorise AU to claim your FTSO delegation rewards on your behalf ("Auto-Claim"). Auto-Claim works through the networks' executor mechanism: you register AU-operated executor addresses (currently 0x3207b0dcC4f9a691B05271DBDD44D00566A27118 and 0x4A646692Dd27d8798c5CdfFf63f7181A723196E6, which we may change from time to time) against your address. By enabling Auto-Claim you agree to the following:
- Claim-only authority. The executor mechanism is restricted by the network protocol to claiming rewards to your own address. Executors cannot transfer, delegate, stake or otherwise control your funds, and we never take custody of your assets.
- Fees. A fee of 4 FLR applies to registration and to each claim, charged through the protocol's executor-fee mechanism. Auto-Claim is free if you delegate 250,000 FLR or more, or stake 100,000 FLR or more, to AU; eligibility is assessed by us and may be re-assessed if your delegation or stake changes. We may change fees and free-tier thresholds prospectively at any time by updating the App or these Terms.
- Claim threshold. Rewards are claimed once your accrued rewards reach a minimum threshold (currently 50 FLR). Rewards below the threshold may remain unclaimed until the threshold is met.
- Best effort only — no guarantee of timing or execution. We operate Auto-Claim on a reasonable, best-effort basis and intend to claim eligible rewards each reward epoch, but WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT ANY CLAIM WILL BE EXECUTED, OR EXECUTED WITHIN ANY PARTICULAR TIME. Claims may be delayed, missed or fail for reasons including network congestion or outages, RPC or infrastructure failures, smart contract behaviour, protocol changes, insufficient reward balances, gas conditions, or maintenance of our systems. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any rewards that are delayed, missed, expired, forfeited or otherwise not claimed, and it remains your responsibility to monitor your rewards and claim manually where necessary before any protocol expiry deadline.
- Your controls. You may disable Auto-Claim at any time by removing the executor authorisation on-chain. Fees already incurred are not refundable. We may suspend or terminate Auto-Claim generally, or for your address specifically, at any time without notice or liability.
- Existing executors. If you configure executors other than ours, or remove our executors, Auto-Claim may stop functioning in whole or in part, and we have no responsibility for the conduct of any third-party executor.

10. Third-Party Websites and Content
The Site links to third-party websites, applications, wallets, block explorers, exchanges and other content ("Third-Party Services"). We do not investigate, monitor or verify Third-Party Services and are not responsible for them. Inclusion of a link does not imply our endorsement.

11. Site Availability and Management
We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor the Site, restrict access to any portion of it, and otherwise manage the Site to protect our rights and property and its proper functioning. We may change, suspend or discontinue all or part of the Site at any time without notice. We do not guarantee that the Site will be available, uninterrupted or error-free, and we will not be liable for any downtime, maintenance, data loss or unavailability.
12. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT, DATA, TOOLS AND SERVICES PROVIDED THROUGH IT ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. YOUR USE OF THE SITE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY AND AVAILABILITY.

13. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF DIGITAL ASSETS OR TOKENS, MISSED, DELAYED, EXPIRED OR REDUCED DELEGATION OR STAKING REWARDS (INCLUDING IN CONNECTION WITH THE AUTO-CLAIM SERVICE), OR OTHER DAMAGES — ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR THE APP, OUR VALIDATOR OR FTSO INFRASTRUCTURE, OR ANY CONTENT OR AI OUTPUT, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (US$100). SOME LAWS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY; IF THOSE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY, AND OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold us harmless — including our subsidiaries, affiliates and our respective officers, agents, partners, contractors and employees — from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, made by any third party arising out of: (a) your use of the Site; (b) your breach of these Terms; (c) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party; or (d) your on-chain transactions, delegations or staking activity. We may assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter subject to this indemnity, at your expense, and you agree to cooperate with our defence.

These Terms remain in full force and effect while you use the Site. We may, in our sole discretion and without notice or liability, deny access to and use of the Site to any person for any reason or no reason, including for breach of these Terms or of any applicable law. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification and dispute resolution — survive termination.
16. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms and your use of the Site are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Panama, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Before commencing any formal proceedings, you agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute informally by contacting us at hello@au.cc and allowing at least thirty (30) days for resolution. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site that is not resolved informally shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Panama City, Republic of Panama, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY DISPUTE MUST BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY ONLY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

18. Miscellaneous

We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by events beyond our reasonable control. If any provision of these Terms is held unlawful, void or unenforceable, it is severable and does not affect the remaining provisions.
