the User a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide license to access and use
the Platform and Services solely for lawful internal business purposes consistent with the User’s
designated role (Buyer, Supplier, or Expert).
All rights not expressly granted are reserved by Tradeics. Any use outside this grant constitutes

Tradeics to equitable relief without posting bond, in addition to other remedies.
§6. Relationship of the Parties

§10. Business Wallet and Escrow
The Wallet is a closed-loop payout instrument for Platform transactions; it is not a bank account, earns no interest,
and is not insured. Tradeics and PSPs may freeze, suspend, or deduct balances for fraud, AML, chargebacks,
regulatory obligations, or outstanding User liabilities. Tradeics’ records of Wallet activity are conclusive absent manifest error.
§11. Multi-Currency and FX

to use, host, reproduce, display, and transmit such Content solely for Platform operation, security, compliance,
and improvement.
Deliverables. Upon full payment, Experts grant the relevant Buyer a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive
license to use, copy, and modify the Deliverables (unless otherwise agreed in an Order Form).
Users warrant they have all necessary rights and shall indemnify Tradeics against third-party claims
arising from their Content or Deliverables.
§16. Confidentiality
Each party shall protect the other’s Confidential Information and use it solely to perform this Agreement.
Obligations survive five (5) years, and perpetually for trade secrets.
§17. Escrow Guarantee (Discretionary)
If a Supplier or Expert fails to deliver as agreed, Tradeics may, at its sole discretion, refund the Buyer from Escrow Funds.
This is a discretionary guarantee and the Buyer’s exclusive remedy for non-performance under Platform workflows.

81.2 Tradeics reserves the right to renegotiate or terminate this Agreement if such change materially increases its risk exposure.

If a User becomes insolvent, enters bankruptcy, or is subject to liquidation, User shall immediately notify Tradeics.
Tradeics may suspend or terminate access and offset outstanding amounts against Wallet balances or escrow funds.
§83. Equitable Relief
Users acknowledge that unauthorized use of the Platform, breaches of confidentiality, or violations of Tradeics’ IP rights would cause irreparable harm
for which monetary damages are inadequate. Tradeics shall therefore be entitled to seek injunctive relief and equitable remedies without posting bond,
in addition to all other remedies.
§84. Governing Equities; Good Faith
The parties shall exercise their rights and perform their obligations under this Agreement in good faith and consistent with principles of fair dealing.
§85. Expanded Survival
In addition to those clauses listed in §40, the following also survive termination: §§27 (Indemnification), 28 (Liability Limits), 29 (Compliance),
63 (Legal Holds), 77 (Non-Solicitation), and 83 (Equitable Relief).
§86. Audit Trail; Electronic Records
The Platform may maintain an immutable audit trail of User activity for compliance, dispute resolution, and fraud detection.
Such electronic audit records shall be admissible as evidence and deemed accurate unless proven manifestly erroneous.
§87. U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Compliance
If the User is a U.S. federal government contractor or agency, the Platform is provided as “commercial computer software” under FAR 12.212 and DFARS 227.7202.
Use is subject to the restrictions applicable to commercial software.
§88. Anti-Bribery; Code of Conduct
Users shall not offer, give, solicit, or accept bribes, kickbacks, or improper payments in connection with the Platform.
Users represent that they maintain adequate compliance procedures to prevent bribery and corruption.
§89. Sanctions Compliance
Tradeics may suspend or terminate accounts if Users engage in transactions involving sanctioned countries, persons, or entities.
Users shall indemnify Tradeics for any fines, penalties, or losses arising from their breach of sanctions compliance.
§90. Governing Currency
All monetary amounts under this Agreement are expressed in U.S. Dollars (USD) unless expressly stated otherwise.
Multi-currency transactions are converted at rates provided by Tradeics’ PSPs at the time of processing.
§91. Retention of Rights
All rights not expressly granted in this Agreement are reserved by Tradeics.
§92. Headings; Drafting Neutrality
Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
The parties acknowledge they had equal opportunity to review and negotiate the terms,
and no presumption shall apply against either party as drafter.
§93. Cumulative Remedies
All rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and non-exclusive,
and may be exercised in addition to any other remedies available at law or equity.
§94. Waiver of Sovereign Immunity
If the User is a state-owned enterprise or governmental agency, it expressly waives any sovereign immunity defenses
with respect to enforcement of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.
§95. Successors and Assigns
This Agreement shall bind and benefit the parties and their respective successors, administrators, and permitted assigns.
§96. Counterparts; Electronic Delivery
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each deemed an original, together constituting one binding instrument.
Delivery by electronic signature or click-through acceptance is valid and enforceable.
§97. No Third-Party Beneficiaries
Except as expressly stated (e.g., PSPs for payment processing), nothing in this Agreement creates rights for any third party.
§98. Modification of Terms
Tradeics may update this Agreement by posting revisions on the Platform or notifying Users at least thirty (30) days in advance.
Material changes (pricing, liability limits, governing law) apply prospectively only, unless required by law or for security reasons.
Continued use of the Platform after notice constitutes acceptance.
§99. Entire Agreement
This EULA, together with Order Forms, policies, and incorporated documents, constitutes the entire agreement
between the parties regarding the Platform and supersedes all prior oral or written understandings.
