Terms of Mirage

Version 1.0 – 10 April 2026

1. Scope and acceptance

1.1 These terms and conditions (the "Terms") apply to the use of the website available at http://www.mirageprivacy.com (the "Website"), operated by Mirage Technology AG (the "Company").

1.2 By visiting, accessing, or using the Website, you (the "Visitor") accept and agree to be bound by these Terms.

1.3 If you do not agree to these Terms, you shall not visit, access, or use the Website.

1.4 The Terms applicable at the time of use shall apply. The Company may amend these Terms at any time by publishing a revised version on the Website. Continued use of the Website after such publication constitutes acceptance of the amended Terms.

2. Definitions

The following definitions apply throughout these Terms:

  • Blockchain: The distributed ledger technology network(s) on which the Protocol is deployed.
  • Interface: The user interface provided through the Website that facilitates the Visitor's interaction with the Protocol.
  • Protocol: The Mirage decentralized system, operating autonomously and without any centralized operator.
  • Smart Contracts: The self-executing programs deployed by the Visitors on the Blockchain.
  • Node Operators: The operators of the Nomad software that execute transactions that a user of the Protocol broadcasts to the Protocol.
  • Wallet: A third-party software application (such as MetaMask) used by the Visitor to interact with the Blockchain.

3. Nature of the Website and the Protocol

3.1 The Website provides an Interface that facilitates the Visitor's interaction with the Protocol. The Interface is a visualization and transaction preparation tool only. It does not execute transactions on behalf of the Visitor, does not custody, hold, or control any funds or tokens, and does not form part of the Protocol.

3.2 The Protocol operates autonomously based on independent Node Operators and on the Blockchain. Interaction with the Protocol is possible without the Interface, including through direct smart contract deployment, command-line tools, or alternative frontends. The Website is not necessary for the operation of or interaction with the Protocol.

3.3 The functionality of the Protocol is based on the programmatic code that is executed by Node Operators and on the Blockchain. Reference is made to the technical documentation provided by the Company, whereas the technical documentation may contain errors and is provided "as is" without any warranty for completeness or accuracy.

3.4 No entity, including the Company, controls, operates, or is responsible for the Protocol, the Smart Contracts, or the Blockchain. The Company operates the Website and the Interface only and has no ability to influence, modify, pause, or reverse any transaction executed through the Protocol.

3.5 The Website operates on a non-custodial basis. The Visitor requires a third-party Wallet to interact with the Protocol. The Company never has access to, custody of, or control over the Visitor's private keys, funds, or tokens.

3.6 The Protocol and the Smart Contracts are of an experimental nature and may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or errors. Smart contract audits, if any, do not guarantee the absence of vulnerabilities or the correct functioning of the Protocol.

3.7 The Company may implement restrictions on the access and use of the Website and/or the Interface in its reasonable discretion, including but not limited to blocking certain IP-addresses and wallet addresses.

4. Eligibility and representations by the Visitor

By accessing or using the Website, the Visitor represents and warrants that:

  • the Visitor is at least eighteen (18) years of age and has reached the age of majority in the Visitor's jurisdiction;
  • the Visitor has the full legal capacity, right, power, and authority to accept and comply with these Terms;
  • the Visitor's access to and use of the Website and the Protocol complies with all laws and regulations applicable to the Visitor, including the laws of the Visitor's jurisdiction of residence and domicile;
  • the Visitor is not a Restricted Person and is not accessing the Website from a Prohibited Jurisdiction (as defined in Section 11);
  • the Visitor has sufficient knowledge and experience to understand the functioning and risks of decentralized protocols, smart contracts, digital assets, and blockchain technology;
  • the Visitor is not relying on the Company or the Website for any legal, tax, financial, or investment advice;
  • the Visitor is solely responsible for assessing the legal and regulatory status of the Protocol and any tokens in the Visitor's jurisdiction; and
  • the Visitor's interaction with the Protocol is entirely at the Visitor's own risk and could lead to substantial or complete loss of funds.

5. Risks

5.1 The Visitor acknowledges and accepts that the use of the Website and the interaction with the Protocol involve significant risks, including but not limited to:

  • Smart contract risk: the Smart Contracts may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or errors that could result in the loss of funds or unintended consequences;
  • Blockchain risk: the Blockchain may be subject to forks, reorganizations, network congestion, 51% attacks, maximal extractable value (MEV) extraction, or other disruptions that could affect transactions;
  • Oracle risk: the Protocol may rely on external data feeds (oracles) that could provide incorrect, delayed, or manipulated data;
  • Regulatory risk: the regulatory treatment of decentralized protocols, digital assets, and related activities is uncertain and subject to change across jurisdictions, which may adversely affect the Protocol or the Visitor's ability to use it;
  • Liquidity risk: liquidity in Protocol pools or markets may be insufficient, resulting in unfavourable execution prices, slippage, or the inability to execute transactions;
  • Market risk: the value of tokens and digital assets is highly volatile and may decline substantially or become worthless;
  • Bridge and composability risk: interaction with third-party bridges, protocols, or smart contracts introduces additional risk vectors outside the control of the Company;
  • Governance risk: if the Protocol has governance mechanisms, governance decisions may be made that adversely affect the Visitor's position or interests; and
  • Technology risk: the Protocol and the Blockchain are experimental technologies that may become obsolete, be superseded, or cease to function.

5.2 The foregoing list of risks is not exhaustive. The Visitor uses the Protocol entirely at the Visitor's own risk and could suffer substantial or complete loss of funds. To assess the viability, risks, and suitability of the Protocol is the Visitor's sole responsibility.

5.3 The Company is under no obligation to inform the Visitor of any particular risks relating to the Visitor and/or a specific transaction.

5.4 No guarantee is made as to the availability, accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of information displayed on the Website.

6. Loss of private keys

6.1 The Visitor is solely responsible for safeguarding the Visitor's private keys, seed phrases, and any other credentials used to access the Visitor's Wallet.

6.2 If the Visitor's private keys or seed phrases are lost, the Visitor will irreversibly lose access to the Visitor's funds and tokens. The Company has no means of recovering such access and bears no responsibility for any such loss.

7. No representations or warranties

7.1 The Website (including any technical documentation or other information) and the Interface are provided "as is" and "as available". The Company makes no representations or warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness, reliability, security, or uninterrupted availability.

7.2 Without limiting the foregoing, the Company makes no representations or warranties regarding the Protocol, the Smart Contracts, the Blockchain, or any tokens, all of which are entirely outside the Company's control.

7.3 The Website may contain or link to third-party content or third-party websites. The Company assumes no responsibility for and makes no representations or warranties regarding any third-party content, services, or websites, including their accuracy, legality, or safety.

8. Liability
