Drawing Rights

Trading in SkinsMonkey.com does not involve any fiduciary currency or cryptocurrency. Trading in SkinsMonkey.com is available only through exchange one Virtual Item for another Virtual Item, or optionally, by using drawing rights issued by us specifically for the purposes of trading within SkinsMonkey.com (the "Drawing Rights"). Drawing Rights might not be used elsewhere or exchanged for any fiduciary currency or cryptocurrency.

For your convenience only, our Drawing Rights are issued in the prearranged units which are shown on our platform as equivalent to the units of the fiduciary currency, typically US Dollars (USD). Unless provided otherwise, 1 prearranged unit of our Drawing Rights is represented on our platform as 1 unit of the fiduciary currency involved, typically 1 US Dollar (USD). For avoidance of doubt, 1 prearranged unit of our Drawing Rights might not be exchanged for 1 US Dollar or its equivalent in any other fiduciary currency or cryptocurrency. The amount of prearranged units of our Drawing Rights acquired by you will constitute balance of your account open on our platform presented as corresponding units of fiduciary currency (the "Balance").

In principle, you acquire our Drawing Rights when exchanging your Virtual Item valued on our platform higher than the Virtual Item you receive as a result of such exchange. In such situation, the difference between (i) the value of your Virtual Item, which you trade through our platform and (ii) the value of the Virtual Item you receive in exchange will constitute the amount of prearranged units of our Drawing Rights which you will receive and what will be reflected in your positive Balance.

Alternatively, we may issue our Drawing Rights upon subscription. You can make subscription order to our Drawing Rights only by using our platform. The availability of our Drawing Rights might be limited, hence your subscription might not be accepted by us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we specifically reserve our right to grant the Drawing Rights to any User upon our sole discretion without subscription.

In order to place subscription order for our Drawing Rights, you shall pay us the price calculated in fiduciary currency and provided on our platform. The price payable in fiduciary currency for our Drawing Rights is solely upon our discretion and vary from time to time.

If your subscription order is accepted and the subscription price is credited on our fiduciary currency account in its entirety, without any set-offs, deductions, or other modifications, you acquire the right to use Drawing Rights on our platform.

If you have positive Balance, you may place an order to redeem Drawing Rights by using our platform. Our decision whether we agree or not agree to accept your redemption order is solely within our discretion. If your redemption order is accepted by us, the amount of your Drawing Rights being subject of redemption will be cancelled, which will be reflected in your debited Balance. If your redemption order is accepted, we will pay you the amount in fiduciary currency which will be the product of (i) the amount of prearranged units of our Drawing Rights multiplied by (ii) the redemption price expressed in fiduciary currency for one prearranged unit of our Drawing Rights established upon our sole discretion and provided to you upon acceptance of your redemption order.

At any time your Balance shall not exceed the amount of prearranged units of our Drawing Rights shown as USD 15,000. To access Balance you may be asked to provide registration details, including without limitation a payment method, a related billing address and all necessary KYC information about the Account owner. Balance does not constitute a personal property and has no value. Balance is non-transferable to another service or person and do not accrue interest.

Fluctuation risk - prices of Virtual Items fluctuate rapidly and in short period may loose significant value, in particular Virtual Items are not backed up by any fiduciary currency, cryptocurrency, precious metals, commodities or any other tangible or intangible asset, therefore they actual market value might be or become null.

Liquidity risk - Under some circumstances you may find difficult to buy or sell Virtual Items since there might be no other user who is willing to trade. No Virtual Items might be available for exchange or purchase.

Suspension of trading - Under some circumstances we may be required to cease to offer to exchange of all or some Virtual Items. Such suspension may arise either in our own discretion if we deem that trading such Virtual Items may cause damage to us or our Users, or in cases when we shall be obliged to do so by binding us laws.

Risk of origin - Some Virtual Items might be associated with illegal activity or be originated in other illegal sources without your awareness, what may result in difficulties or inability in their trading.

Regulatory risk - the legal status of Virtual Items and Drawing Rights is still unclear in most of the countries. Regulations limiting trading of Virtual Items and Drawing Rights may be expected.
