⚠️ Important Legal Notice: These Terms & Conditions constitute a legally binding agreement. By connecting your wallet and using ChainBridge-Investments, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all terms below. If you do not agree, do not use our services.
1. Overview & Scope
ChainBridge-Investments ("ChainBridge", "we", "us", "our") operates the website at https://chainbridge-investments.com and provides a crypto investment platform that allows users to deposit and manage cryptocurrency directly from their non-custodial wallets (e.g., MetaMask, Phantom, TrustWallet, Rabby). We support the following blockchain networks: Ethereum (ETH), Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Solana (SOL), and Polygon (MATIC).
CRITICAL NOTE: We never take custody of your funds. All deposits, investments, and withdrawals are executed via smart contracts on the respective blockchains. You retain full control of your private keys at all times. We cannot access, reverse, or recover any blockchain transaction once confirmed.
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the ChainBridge platform, website, and any associated services (collectively, the "Services"). These Terms incorporate our Privacy Policy by reference.
2. Eligibility & Restricted Persons

- You are at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence).
- You have the full legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
- You are not a resident of, located in, or accessing the Services from any jurisdiction where the use of cryptocurrency investment platforms is prohibited or restricted by applicable law.
- You are not a person or entity subject to economic or financial sanctions administered by the United Nations, United States (OFAC), European Union, United Kingdom, or any other applicable sanctions authority.

3. Wallet Connection & Account Responsibility
To use our Services, you must connect a compatible non-custodial wallet (the "Connected Wallet"). You are solely responsible for:

- Ensuring that you have sufficient funds or allowances to complete transactions on the supported blockchains.
🔐 Security Reminder: We will NEVER ask you for your private keys, seed phrase, or password. Never share this information with anyone. ChainBridge will NEVER initiate a transaction from your wallet – you must approve all transactions using your own wallet software.
We are not responsible for: Lost private keys, compromised wallets, unauthorized access to your wallet, transactions sent to incorrect addresses, or any losses resulting from your failure to secure your wallet. Blockchain transactions are irreversible – once confirmed, they cannot be undone.
