Terms & Conditions

Last updated: 1 October 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Ivy Connection PLC ("Ivy", "we", "us"), a company registered in England and Wales, registered office 20 Fenchurch Street, London, EC3M 3BY, United Kingdom. By downloading the Ivy Messenger application, creating an account, joining the waitlist, or participating in the IVY token sale, you agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our AML Policy.

2. Description of Service

Ivy provides an end-to-end encrypted messaging application with an integrated, non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet, and operates a public sale of the IVY utility token through seed, private, and public rounds as described on our website. Ivy Messenger is currently in pre-launch; features, timelines, and token economics described on this site are subject to change prior to mainnet launch.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and have full legal capacity to enter into this agreement. You may not use the Services, and in particular may not participate in the token sale, if you are:

• A resident or citizen of a jurisdiction where participation in a token sale is prohibited or unregistered, including but not limited to the United States, mainland China, and any country subject to comprehensive sanctions by the UK, EU, or UN;
• Listed on any applicable sanctions or politically exposed persons list;
• Unable to pass identity verification under our AML Policy.

4. Account Registration

When you create an account, you agree to provide accurate information and to keep your login credentials confidential. You are responsible for all activity under your account. You must notify us promptly at security@ivymessenger.com if you suspect unauthorised access.

5. Token Sale Participation

Participation in any IVY token sale round is subject to:

• Successful completion of identity verification (KYC) and AML screening;
• Minimum and maximum contribution limits published for each round;
• A vesting schedule, where applicable, disclosed to you before contribution;
• Our right to reject, limit, or refund any contribution at our sole discretion, including where fraud, sanctions exposure, or technical error is suspected.

Token sale allocations described on our website (seed, private, and public round pricing, bonuses, and dates) are indicative and may be adjusted before a given round opens, with notice provided to waitlist members.

6. Risks of Digital Assets

Purchasing or holding IVY tokens involves significant risk, including but not limited to:

• Price volatility: the value of IVY may fluctuate significantly and may fall to zero;
• Regulatory risk: future regulation may restrict the use, transfer, or trading of IVY in your jurisdiction;
• Technology risk: smart contracts, relay nodes, and cryptographic protocols may contain undiscovered vulnerabilities despite independent audits;
• Liquidity risk: there is no guarantee that IVY will be listed on any exchange or that a liquid market will develop;
• Loss of access: as a non-custodial wallet, Ivy cannot recover lost private keys or seed phrases.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Services to: transmit unlawful, infringing, or harmful content; attempt to interfere with the relay network or any node's operation; reverse-engineer the application beyond what is permitted by its open-source licence; or use the Services for money laundering, terrorist financing, or any other illegal purpose.

8. Intellectual Property

The Ivy name, logo, and trademarks are the property of Ivy Connection PLC. Client application source code is released under an open-source licence as specified in our public repository; this does not extend to our trademarks, branding, or server-side infrastructure.

9. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Ivy Connection PLC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of digital assets, arising from your use of the Services. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including liability for fraud or death or personal injury caused by negligence.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Ivy Connection PLC, its officers, employees, and affiliates from any claim or demand arising out of your breach of these Terms or your violation of any law or third-party right.

11. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account or access to the Services at our discretion if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, applicable law, or our AML Policy. You may close your account at any time by contacting us; certain obligations (including AML record retention) survive termination.

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute arising under these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales, save where mandatory consumer protection law in your country of residence provides otherwise.

13. Changes to Terms
