SECTION 2: EXHAUSTIVE RISK WARNING & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
USING THE PLATFORM INVOLVES EXTREME FINANCIAL RISK. DIGITAL ASSETS, SMART CONTRACTS, AND DECENTRALIZED FINANCE PROTOCOLS ARE EXPERIMENTAL, HIGHLY VOLATILE, AND SUBJECT TO UNPREDICTABLE FAILURE. YOU MAY SUFFER A COMPLETE AND IRRECOVERABLE LOSS OF ALL ASSETS INTERACTED WITH THROUGH THE PLATFORM.
You acknowledge, understand, and knowingly assume all risks including, without limitation:
- Smart Contract Vulnerabilities: Software bugs, logic flaws, integer overflows, reentrancy attacks, flash-loan vulnerabilities, access-control failures, rounding discrepancies, or unhandled edge cases in Platform contracts or underlying libraries.
- Third-Party Protocol Exploits: Hacks, economic manipulations, liquidity drains, infinite-mint exploits, governance hijacks, or structural insolvencies affecting external DEXs, lending pools, or staking systems integrated into Vault Strategies.
- Price Volatility & Liquidity Crashing: Rapid, extreme price collapses of underlying tokens, vault shares, or collateral assets, resulting in severe slippage, illiquidity, or the complete inability to liquidate positions.
- Stablecoin Depegging: Algorithmic failures, underlying fiat reserve shortfalls, issuer freezes, redemption suspensions, regulatory seizures, or market panic causing pegged tokens to lose parity.
- Impermanent Loss & Concentrated Liquidity Risks: Divergence loss incurred when providing paired liquidity, exacerbated by concentrated-liquidity ranges moving out of range, crystallizing losses upon rebalance or withdrawal.
- Oracle Latency & Manipulation: Price feed delays, stale reporting, bad data injection, flash-loan-assisted price manipulation, or central aggregator outages affecting Vault valuation, execution, or rebalancing.
- Bridge & Cross-Chain Vulnerabilities: Smart contract exploits, relay failures, validator key compromises, message-passing delays, or locked-asset thefts on cross-chain infrastructure.
- Maximal Extractable Value (MEV): Front-running, back-running, sandwich attacks, block-reordering, or transaction inclusion delays by miners, validators, or searchers altering execution prices.
- Automation & Keeper Failures: Delayed, unexecuted, or misconfigured compounding transactions caused by high gas prices, keeper bot downtime, off-chain relay failure, or network congestion.
- Admin Key & Governance Privileges: Modification, emergency pausing, parameter updates, or multi-signature account compromise affecting Vault behavior, strategy migrations, or smart contract upgrades.
- Blockchain Infrastructure Outages: Chain reorganizations, validator consensus failures, L2 sequencer outages, network splits, hard forks, RPC node crashes, or cloud infrastructure downtime.
- Regulatory & Legal Enforcement: Unfavorable legal rulings, emergency legislation, administrative enforcement, securities registration demands, tax policy changes, or state sanctions targeting DeFi protocols or smart contract developers.
NO APY, APR, PROFIT, RETURN, YIELD, OR PRINCIPAL VALUE IS EVER GUARANTEED, FORECASTED, OR PROMISED BY ARROWFARM. ALL DISPLAYED YIELDS ARE ESTIMATES BASED ON HISTORICAL DATA THAT MAY CHANGE IMMEDIATELY AND WITHOUT NOTICE.
SECTION 2A: NO FINANCIAL, LEGAL, OR TAX ADVICE
Arrowfarm does not provide investment, financial, legal, or tax advice. The Platform is a decentralized technological interface, and any use of it is strictly at your own risk. Any metrics displayed on the Platform are purely historical estimates provided for informational purposes only. This includes but is not limited to Annual Percentage Yield (APY), Annual Percentage Rate (APR), yields, and portfolio values. These metrics do not constitute a forecast, guarantee, or promise of future returns.
SECTION 3: ELIGIBILITY & PROHIBITED JURISDICTIONS
Capacity: You represent and warrant that you are a natural person at least 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction) with full contractual capacity to execute these Terms.
Lawful Purpose: Your use of the Platform must comply with all applicable local, national, and international laws, regulations, rules, and guidance.
Sanctions & Geographic Restrictions: You explicitly represent and warrant that you are not:
- A citizen, resident, incorporated entity, or located within Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, the Crimea, Donetsk, or Luhansk regions of Ukraine, or any other jurisdiction targeted by comprehensive economic sanctions enforced by the United States (OFAC), the United Kingdom, the European Union, the United Nations Security Council, or the British Virgin Islands (collectively, "Prohibited Jurisdictions");
- Listed on any sanctions or restricted parties list (e.g., OFAC's Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List, Sectoral Sanctions Identifications List, or equivalent foreign registries); or
- Acting for, on behalf of, or transferring assets derived from any entity or individual subject to international sanctions or criminal investigation.
Evasion Prohibition: You agree not to utilize Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), IP-spoofing software, proxy servers, or alternative technical mechanisms to bypass geographic access restrictions or wallet screening systems maintained by Arrowfarm. Arrowfarm reserves the right to terminate access instantly upon detecting prohibited access patterns.
SECTION 4: NON-CUSTODIAL ARCHITECTURE & USER RESPONSIBILITIES
Non-Custodial Status: Arrowfarm operates on a strictly non-custodial basis. Arrowfarm never takes possession, custody, ownership, or control of your self-custodial wallet, private keys, seed phrases, or un-deposited Digital Assets.
Private Key Control: You are solely and exclusively responsible for the protection, backup, security, and integrity of your digital wallet, private keys, passwords, and multi-factor credentials. Arrowfarm has no technical capacity to retrieve, reset, or recover lost private keys or seed phrases.
Transaction Verification: Blockchain transactions are immediate, autonomous, and irreversible. Before signing any message, token approval, or contract execution through your wallet, you are solely responsible for verifying contract addresses, transaction data, network details, token quantities, and gas limits.
Approval Approvals & Allowance Revocation: You acknowledge that approving smart contracts to spend or transfer tokens from your wallet creates ongoing cryptographic authorization. You are solely responsible for auditing, managing, limiting, and revoking token allowances via tools like Etherscan or Revoke.cash. Arrowfarm accepts no responsibility for losses resulting from unlimited token approvals granted by you.
SECTION 4A: RECEIPT TOKENS, TRANSFER & REDEMPTION RISK
Receipt Token Function: Certain Vaults may issue a receipt token, share token, LP receipt, or similar cryptographic token (a "Receipt Token") representing the holder's proportional claim on assets deposited into or attributable to that Vault. A Receipt Token is not merely a display item. Depending on the applicable smart-contract mechanics, possession or control of the Receipt Token may be required to redeem, withdraw, transfer, or otherwise exercise rights in respect of the underlying Vault position.
Transfer of Redemption Rights: If you sell, transfer, send, bridge, burn, pledge, approve, deposit into another protocol, or otherwise dispose of a Receipt Token, you may transfer or permanently lose some or all of your ability to redeem the corresponding underlying assets. A transfer of the Receipt Token may, depending on the smart-contract design, transfer the associated economic or redemption rights to the recipient.
Irreversibility and Misdirected Transfers: Transfers of Receipt Tokens are blockchain transactions and may be irreversible. Arrowfarm has no obligation and may have no technical ability to reverse a transfer, recover a Receipt Token sent to an incorrect address, retrieve a token sent to an unsupported smart contract, or restore redemption rights after a Receipt Token has been lost, destroyed, transferred, or otherwise disposed of.
Wallet and Approval Risk: You are solely responsible for securing any wallet that holds Receipt Tokens and for reviewing approvals or permissions granted over those tokens. Theft, phishing, malware, compromised private keys, malicious approvals, wallet-drainer transactions, or unauthorized transfers may result in the loss of both the Receipt Token and the ability to redeem the associated Vault assets.
Third-Party Market and Integration Risk: Arrowfarm does not represent or warrant that Receipt Tokens are suitable for sale, transfer, trading, collateralization, bridging, wrapping, lending, or use through any third-party marketplace, wallet, protocol, or smart contract. Third-party interfaces may display Receipt Tokens incorrectly, fail to recognize their redemption mechanics, or expose Users to additional smart-contract, liquidity, pricing, or transfer risks.
Value and Redemption Risk: The quantity of underlying assets represented by a Receipt Token, and the market value of those assets, may increase or decrease over time as a result of yield, fees, impermanent loss, market movements, strategy performance, smart-contract behavior, third-party protocol events, or other risks described in these Terms. No Receipt Token has a guaranteed market value, redemption value, or minimum return.
User Responsibility and No Reimbursement: You are solely responsible for maintaining custody of Receipt Tokens required to redeem your Vault position and for verifying the consequences of any transfer or approval before signing a transaction. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Arrowfarm shall have no liability and no obligation to reimburse, replace, restore, or compensate you for losses arising from the sale, transfer, loss, theft, destruction, misdirection, approval, pledge, bridging, or other disposition of a Receipt Token.
Assumption of Risk: By depositing into a Vault that issues a Receipt Token, you expressly acknowledge that you understand the function of the Receipt Token and assume the risks described in this Section. This Section forms part of, and is subject to, the risk assumptions, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification provisions, and dispute-resolution provisions contained elsewhere in these Terms. This Section survives termination of your use of the Platform.
SECTION 4B: SECURITIES & REGULATORY CLASSIFICATION
The Platform, Smart Contracts, and any associated tokens are strictly functional utility software. You explicitly acknowledge and agree that Receipt Tokens, Vault deposits, and any associated cryptographic assets are not intended to be, and shall not be construed as, securities, investment contracts, commodities, derivatives, or regulated financial instruments under the laws of any jurisdiction.
SECTION 5: VAULTS, AUTOMATED COMPOUNDING, & STRATEGY MECHANICS
Vault Operations: Vaults accept designated Digital Assets, issue proportional receipt/share tokens representing your share of the pool, and deploy assets into underlying Strategies according to algorithmic smart contract rules.
Compounding Mechanics: Autocompounding involves automated sequence actions: claiming yield/reward tokens, swapping reward assets on DEXs, pairing tokens, adding liquidity, and redepositing the liquidity back into the strategy.
Frequency Disclaimer: References to "auto-compounding," "automated," or "real-time compounding" do not imply continuous, block-by-block execution. Compounding triggers depend on gas price feasibility, reward thresholds, liquidity depth, and keeper bot schedules.
Immutable Strategies & Emergency Parameters: Vault strategies operate via pre-programmed, automated smart contract logic rather than active human management. Arrowfarm does not actively manage, rebalance, or direct user funds. Any designated multi-signature administrators act strictly as emergency security operators and may only interact with Vaults to pause, deprecate, or freeze smart contracts in the event of severe security exploits, critical vulnerabilities, or extreme market distress to protect the protocol infrastructure.
SECTION 6: MANAGEMENT, AUTOMATION, & PRIVILEGED ROLES
Privileged Roles: Certain Vault contracts contain administrative functions, multisig access controls, pause mechanics, or upgradeable proxy pointers. These roles exist to mitigate emergencies, freeze exploited strategies, or adjust operational parameters.
Multisig & Security Councils: Admin keys may be held by core developers, community multisigs, or security councils. You acknowledge that administrative privileges introduce human operational risk, key compromise risk, or governance execution risk.
Automated Keeper Dependency: Strategies depend on off-chain keepers, relayers, or bots to trigger execution functions. Arrowfarm does not guarantee the continuous availability, accuracy, or timing of keeper bots. Unexecuted triggers do not give rise to any legal claim against Arrowfarm.
SECTION 7: FRONT-END INTERFACE VS. DIRECT CONTRACT INTERACTION
Interface Convenience Layer: The Platform web interface (e.g., website, UI components, dashboard) is provided solely as a visual convenience layer to interact with underlying smart contracts.
Interface Outages & Fallbacks: Front-end interfaces may become temporarily or permanently offline, degraded, blocked, or altered due to hosting provider failures, DNS attacks, cloud outages, or legal actions.
Direct Blockchain Access: In the event of a front-end interface outage, your assets remain deployed on public blockchains. You acknowledge that you can interact directly with the open-source smart contracts via blockchain explorers (e.g., Etherscan, BscScan), CLI tools, or alternative secondary UIs. Website unavailability does not constitute a loss of access attributable to Arrowfarm.
SECTION 8: FEES & DYNAMIC MODIFICATIONS
Platform Fees: To maintain decentralized infrastructure, the protocol programmatically collects execution fees, deposit fees, withdrawal fees, or automated protocol fees. Arrowfarm does not charge "management" or "performance" fees for active advisory services.
Dynamic Fee Schedule: The current applicable fee rates are displayed dynamically within the user interface before transaction execution and are detailed in official documentation. Arrowfarm reserves the right to adjust fee structures at any time.
Programmatic Collection: Fees are collected programmatically directly by Vault smart contracts at the point of compounding, deposit, or withdrawal.
Third-Party & Network Fees: You remain responsible for all third-party DEX swap fees, bridge fees, lending pool spread costs, and underlying network transaction fees ("gas"). Gas fees paid for failed transactions are non-refundable.
SECTION 9: THIRD-PARTY PROTOCOLS & INTEGRATIONS
Independent Third Parties: Arrowfarm Vaults interact with independent, third-party protocols (e.g., Uniswap, Aave, Curve, Compound). Arrowfarm does not control, operate, audit, guarantee, or maintain these external protocols.
Interoperability Risk: Malfunctions, hacks, illiquidity, price manipulation, or administrative pauses initiated by Third-Party Protocols will directly impact your Vault positions. Arrowfarm bears no legal or financial responsibility for damage, loss, or operational failure resulting from Third-Party Protocols.
SECTION 10: AIRDROPS, FORKS, & INCIDENTAL ASSETS
No Right to Incidental Assets: Vault smart contracts may receive unprompted airdrops, governance tokens, forked assets, or fee distributions ("Incidental Assets").
Platform Ownership: You expressly agree that holding Vault share tokens gives you no legal ownership, claim, entitlement, or right to extract Incidental Assets accumulated by Vault contracts unless expressly programmed into the strategy. Arrowfarm reserves full discretion to claim, ignore, burn, or convert Incidental Assets for protocol operational needs.
SECTION 11: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY & OPEN SOURCE
Proprietary Rights: Arrowfarm retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Platform, interface designs, logos, trademarks, branding, trade names, graphics, text, custom software, and underlying proprietary code, excluding third-party software.
Open-Source Software: Certain smart contract code or developer repositories may be made available under open-source licenses (e.g., MIT, GNU General Public License). Where an explicit open-source license applies to specific source code, the terms of that open-source license shall govern with respect to that specific code snippet.
SECTION 12: ABSOLUTE DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PLATFORM, VAULTS, STRATEGIES, SOFTWARE, SMART CONTRACTS, AND DATA ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.

- PRICE SLIPPAGE, IMPERMANENT LOSS, OR MARKET VOLATILITY;
- ORACLE FAILURES, BRIDGE EXPLOITS, OR STABLECOIN DEPEG EVENTS; OR
- MEV FRONT-RUNNING, SANDWICH ATTACKS, OR CONGESTED NETWORK DELAYS.
THESE EXCLUSIONS APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE, OR EQUITY, AND EVEN IF ARROWFARM HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
SECTION 14: MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY CAP & ENFORCEABILITY CARVE-OUT
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE TOTAL, CUMULATIVE, AND AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF ARROWFARM AND ALL COVERED PARTIES TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LOSSES, CAUSES OF ACTION, OR DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, THE PLATFORM, SMART CONTRACTS, VAULTS, OR TRANSACTIONS SHALL NOT EXCEED USD $5,000 IN TOTAL.
THIS USD $5,000 AGGREGATE CAP IS AN ABSOLUTE CEILING AND NOT A PER-INCIDENT OR PER-CLAIM CAP. THE EXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE CLAIMS, DEPOSITS, TRANSACTIONS, OR WALLETS WILL NOT EXPAND THIS LIMIT.
CARVE-OUT FOR ENFORCEABILITY: Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit liability for direct damages that cannot lawfully be excluded, except as strictly prohibited by applicable mandatory law.
SECTION 15: CORPORATE VEIL PROTECTION & IMMUNITY FOR INDIVIDUALS
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, OR DISPUTES CONCERNING THE PLATFORM MUST BE ASSERTED EXCLUSIVELY AGAINST ARROWFARM LTD. AND NOT PERSONALLY AGAINST ANY INDIVIDUAL:
- FOUNDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS;
- SOFTWARE DEVELOPERS, CODE CONTRIBUTORS, OPEN-SOURCE MAINTAINERS; OR
- COMMUNITY MODERATORS, AGENTS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS.
You expressly waive any legal right or theory seeking to pierce the corporate veil or impose personal joint, several, or individual liability upon any developer or core contributor for software published, deployed, or maintained by Arrowfarm.
SECTION 16: NO AUTOMATIC RIGHT TO REIMBURSEMENT
A hack, exploit, bug, smart contract failure, protocol failure, market loss, or operational downtime creates no legal obligation or automatic right to reimbursement, compensation, or make-whole payments from Arrowfarm. Any voluntary payment or recovery distribution made by Arrowfarm:
Is entirely discretionary and gratuitous;
Does not constitute an admission of legal liability or wrongdoing;
Does not establish any legal precedent; and
Creates no future obligation to compensate users under any circumstances.
SECTION 17: MANDATORY INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROTOCOL
