Terms of use

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Commerja-X Corporation provides SaaS products and services with the intent to create a workable compromise between centralized and decentralized social media platforms. We seek to bridge the divide and connect both, building stronger communities, fostering economic growth with the possibility of creating generational wealth for all users as we embrace blockchain technology and the rise of the Fediverse.

 These Terms and Conditions governs the use of Xchatta, its messenger application ChitaChatta, and any other products, features, apps, services, technologies, and software we offer, except where we expressly state that separate terms (and not these) apply. These Products are provided to you by Commerja-X.

We do not charge you to use Xchatta or the other products and services covered by these Terms unless we state otherwise. Instead, companies and organizations, and individuals pay us for advertisement of their products and services on our platform(s). By using our Products and services, you agree that we can show you ads which we may think to be relevant to you and your interests. Your personal data is yours to determine how you want it to be used to personalize your experience on the platform.

We do not sell your personal data to advertisers, and we do not share information that directly identifies you (such as your name, email address or other contact information) with advertisers unless you choose so or give us specific permission to do so. Instead, advertisers share the specific niche audiences they want their ads shown too, and we show those ads to people who we believe may be interested. We may provide advertisers with reports about the performance of those ads which may help them better understand the return on their investment.

Also please read our privacy policy for a better understanding of how and what data collected from your usage of this platform. By using our platform(s) products and services at any time grants consent to the terms, conditions, and the privacy policies about how we use your data.

  1. The services we provide

Our vision is to bring all the numerous services provided by the most popular social media platform into a “Socialified” decentralized global community like the Fediverse. Xchatta is giving voices to the voiceless, hope to the neglected and advocacy to the Disenfranchise. Xchatta intends to be a global Town Hall, transforming its’ users into a Decentralizes Autonomous Organization (DAO) by utilizing blockchain technology. You as the users of this platform have and integral part to play in helping the advancement of this vision, by adhering to the terms and conditions for the usage of the products and services provided within our platform(s), as a Stakeholder.

  • Provide a personalized experience for you: Your experience on Xchatta is unlike anyone else's: from the posts, stories, events, ads, and other content you see in Xchatta News Feed or our video platform to the Xchatta Pages you follow and other features you might use, such as Xchatta Marketplace, and search.
  • Connect you with people and organizations you care about:  connect with people, groups, businesses, organizations, and others that matter to you across the Commerja-X Products you use. We use data to make suggestions for you and others - for example, groups to join, events to attend, Xchatta Pages to follow or send a message to, shows to watch, and people you may want to become friends with. Stronger ties make for better communities, and we believe our services are most useful when people are connected to people, groups, and organizations they care about.
  • Empower you to express yourself and communicate about what matters to you: There are many ways to express yourself on Xchatta to communicate with friends, family, and others about what matters to you - for example, sharing status updates, photos, videos, and stories across the Commerja-X Products (consistent with your settings), sending messages or making voice or video calls to a friend or several people, creating events or groups, or adding content to your profile as well as showing you insights on how others engage with your content.
  • Streamlining, your interactions: Personalized ads, offers, and other sponsored or commercial content to help you easily discover content, products, and services that are offered by various businesses and organizations that use Xchatta and other Commerja-X Products.
  • Promoting the safety, security, and integrity of our services, to combat harmful conduct, helps keep our community of users safe: In order to prevent the potential misuse of our Products, harmful conduct towards others, and situations where we may be able to help support or protect our community, including to respond to user reports of potentially violating content, we reserve the inherent right to take whatever action is deemed necessary to prevent conduct which,  based on our assessment may cause harm, promote suicide, bullying, racism in any form- without notifying you.  We may reach out offering help after removing the violating content. The DAO may vote on   removing or restricting access to certain features, disabling an account, or contacting law enforcement all without the need of your permission.
  • We share data across the Commerja- X ecosystem when we detect misuse or harmful conduct by anyone using one of our Products or to help keep Commerja-X Products, users, and the community safe. For example, we share information within the Commerja-X Companies that provide financial products and services to help them promote safety, security and integrity and comply with applicable law. Commerja-X may access, preserve, use, and share any information it collects about you where it has a good faith belief it is required or permitted by law to do so.
    Also, an Oversight Board may review our decisions, subject to its terms voted on by the DAO.
  • We intend to Use and develop advanced technologies to provide safe and functional services for everyone: We may use and intend to develop advanced technologies - such as artificial intelligence, machine learning systems, and augmented reality system as we grow together as decided by the DAO.
  • Provide consistent and seamless experiences across the Commerja-X Ecosystem: Our Products help you find and connect with people, groups, businesses, organizations, and others that are important to you. We design our systems so that your experience is consistent and seamless throughout our ecosystem.
  • Ensuring access to our services: To effectively operate our platform as a global service, which enables users to connect with people around the world, we may need to transfer, store and distribute content and data to our data centers, partners, service providers, vendors and systems around the world, including outside your country of residence. The use of this global infrastructure is necessary and essential to provide a portal to bridge and interconnect the accounts you may hold on to various centralized social media platforms to the decentralized ecosystem being developed as the Fediverse. This infrastructure may be owned, operated, or controlled by Commerja-X Platforms, Commerja-X Corporation, or its affiliates.
  1. How your account is monetized: There are no restrictions as to watch time and minimum follower amounts before a user account can be monetized and start earning on Xchatta. Users earn points on most of their interactions while using the platform. Each form of interactions such as uploads of video content, posting/xchatting, likes, shares and importation of followers all carry various point rewards, which we reserve the right to change at any time.
  2. How you earn revenue: The protocol behind Xchatta is based on the proof of stake and proof of work models that are utilized by most blockchain projects. Users on the platform accumulate points when they complete certain task (proof of work). The points accumulated can only be converted to Xca$h if the user is a stakeholder on the platform by holding a minimum balance of one hundred Xca$h in their personal wallet. (proof of stake). The usage of Xca$h to complete any transaction both within and outside the ecosystem generates fee like a sales tax that is collected and subsequently divided amongst all holders of Xca$h proportional to the quantity which they hold in their wallets. The user must claim their accumulated rewards manually and select any of the ten (10) crypto currencies they want to be rewarded in.

Next the platform is designed on “Socialified” theory that Xca$h is the native currency within the ecosystem, therefore all payments for ads, content creators and influencers also indirectly generate revenue for all holders of Xca$h.

  1. How our services are funded

Instead of charging for the use of Xchatta and the other products and services we offer, and by using the Commerja-X ecosystem covered by these Terms, you agree that ads maybe shown to you  and other commercial and sponsored content that businesses and organizations pay  to promote on and off  the Commerja-X ecosystem.

We may use your personal data, such as information about your activity and interests, to show you personalized ads and sponsored content that may be more relevant to you if this option is selected.

Protecting your privacy is central to how we have designed our system. This means that we can show you relevant and useful ads without telling advertisers who you are, or you can simply opt out. Unlike other social media platforms ALL stakeholders earn from the placement of ads on Xchatta once they hold a minimum of one hundred Xca$h, in their personal wallets.

How to further benefit by linking accounts.

Xchatta allows users the unique feature of importing their follower counts from various centralized social media platforms, and the issuance of points for these followers, with the subsequent tokenization of these followers into Xca$h by our proprietary code. Due to the sensitive nature of the intellectual property involved the specific details cannot be discussed.

The system is activated when the user links his various social media accounts, thereby allowing our system to now fetch the various follower counts and issues points which are later tokenized when the user actively engages with these followers directly from Xchatta. Xchatta has no walled garden and allows its users to export their post from Xchatta to their various centralized social media accounts.

Therefore, users of Xchatta are not required to leave their established network or the ecosystem which surrounds it. This is since Xchatta was designed for the users who are its stakeholders. Simply use Xchatta as their personal social media account management tool, which is also the conduit to bridge the gap between the Fediverse and the “walled gardens” of the Centralized social media platforms, which prevents inter- operability. On Xchatta the users are not the products being sold, but the major brands are now compensating the users directly to display their ads. 

Your commitments to Xchatta and our community as stakeholders

We provide these services to you and others to help advance our mission. In exchange, we need you to make the following commitments:

  1. Who can use Xchatta

If we disable your account for a violation of our Terms, or other terms and policies, you agree not to create another account without our permission.

  1. What you can share and do on Commerja-X Products
    We want people to use Commerja-X Products to express themselves and to share content that is important to them, but not at the expense of the safety and well-being of others or the integrity of our community. You therefore agree not to engage in the conduct described below (or to facilitate or support others in doing so):

      • That violates these Terms, or other terms and policies that apply to your use of our Products.

We can remove or restrict access to content that is in violation of these provisions. We can also suspend or disable your account for conduct that violates these provisions, without need of a warning and your permission or consent to do so.

If we remove content that you have shared in violation of our terms and conditions, we may let you know and allow you to explain any reason which you may have to justify and such actions.

options you have to request another review, unless you seriously or repeatedly violate these Terms or if doing so may expose us or others to legal liability; harm our community of users; compromise or interfere with the integrity or operation of any of our services, systems or Products; where we are restricted due to technical limitations; or where we are prohibited from doing so for legal reasons. For information on account suspension or termination, see Section 4.B below.

To help support our community, we encourage you to report content or conduct that you believe violates your rights (including intellectual property rights) or our terms and policies, if this feature exists in your jurisdiction.

We also can remove or restrict access to content features, services, or information if we determine that doing so is necessary to avoid or mitigate misuse of our services or adverse legal or regulatory impacts to Commerja-X.

  1. The permissions you give us
    We need certain permissions from you to provide our services:
    • Permission to use content you create and share: Some content that you share or upload, such as photos or videos, may be protected by intellectual property laws.

You retain ownership of the intellectual property rights (things like copyright or trademarks) in any such content that you create and share on Xchatta. Nothing in these Terms takes away the rights you have to your own content. You are free to share your content with anyone else, wherever you want.

However, to provide our services we need you to give us some legal permissions (known as a "license") to use this content. This is solely for the purposes of providing and improving our Products and services as described in Section 1 above.

Specifically, when you share, post, or upload content that is covered by intellectual property rights on or in connection with our Products, you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, and worldwide license to host, use, distribute, modify, run, copy, publicly perform or display, translate, and create derivative works of your content (consistent with your privacy and application settings). This means, for example, that if you share a photo on Xchatta, you give us permission to store, copy, and share it with others (again, consistent with your settings) such as Commerja-X Products or service providers that support those products and services. This license will end when your content is deleted from our systems.

You can delete individual content you share, post, and upload at any time. In addition, all content posted to your personal account will be deleted if you delete your account. Account deletion does not automatically delete content that you post as an admin of a page or content that you create collectively with other users, such as photos in Shared Albums which may continue to be visible to other album members.

It may take up to 90 days to delete content after we begin the account deletion process or receive a content deletion request. If you send content to trash, the deletion process will automatically begin in 30 days unless you chose to delete the content sooner. While the deletion process for such content is being undertaken, the content is no longer visible to other users. After the content is deleted, it may take us up to another 90 days to remove it from backups and disaster recovery systems.

Content will not be deleted within 90 days of the account deletion or content deletion process beginning in the following situations:

      • where your content has been used by others in accordance with this license and they have not deleted it (in which case this license will continue to apply until that content is deleted).
      • where deletion within 90 days is not possible due to technical limitations of our systems, in which case, we will complete the deletion as soon as technically feasible: or
      • where immediate deletion would restrict our ability to:
        • investigate or identify illegal activity or violations of our terms and policies (for example, to identify or investigate misuse of our Products or systems).
        • protect the safety, integrity, and security of our Products, systems, services, our employees, and users, and to defend ourselves.
        • comply with legal obligations for the preservation of evidence, including data Commerja-X Companies providing financial products and services preserve to comply with any record keeping obligations required by law; or
        • comply with a request of a judicial or administrative authority, law enforcement or a government agency.

in which case, the content will be retained for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it has been retained (the exact duration will vary on a case-by-case basis).

In each of the above cases, this license will continue until the content has been fully deleted.

    • Permission to use your name, profile picture, and information about your actions with ads and sponsored or commercial content: You give us permission to use your name and profile picture and information about actions you have taken on Xchatta next to or in connection with ads, offers, and other sponsored or commercial content that we display across our Products, without any compensation to you. For example, we may show your friends that you are interested in an advertised event or have liked a Xchatta Page created by a brand that has paid us to display its ads on Xchatta. Ads and content like this can be seen only by people who have your permission to see the actions you have taken within the Commerja-X ecosystem.
    • Permission to update software you use or download: If you download or use our software, you give us permission to download and install updates to the software where available.
  1. Limits on using our intellectual property
    If you use content covered by intellectual property rights that we have and make available in our ecosystem (for example, images, designs, videos, or sounds we provide that you add to content you create or share on Xchatta), we retain all rights to that content (but not yours). You can only use our copyrights or trademarks as expressly permitted by our terms. or with our prior written permission. You must obtain our written permission (or permission under an open-source license) to modify, translate, create derivative works of, decompile, or reverse engineer our products or their components, or otherwise attempt to extract source code from us, unless an exception or limitation applies under applicable law.
  2. Additional provisions
  1. Updating our Terms
    We work constantly to improve our services and develop new features to make our Products better for you and our community. As a result, we may need to update these Terms from time to time to accurately reflect our services and practices, to promote a safe and secure experience on our Products and services, and/or to comply with applicable law. Unless otherwise required by law, we will notify you before we amend these Terms and give you an opportunity to review them before they go into effect. Once any updated Terms are in effect, they will bind you if you continue to use our Products.

We hope that you will continue using our Products, but if you do not agree to our updated Terms and no longer want to be a part of the Xchatta community, and the Commerja-x ecosystem you can delete your account at any time.

  1. Account suspension or termination.

We want Xchatta to be a place where people feel welcome and safe to express themselves and share their thoughts and ideas.

If we determine, in our discretion, that you have clearly, seriously, or repeatedly breached our Terms or Policies, including the Community Standards, we may suspend or permanently disable your access to Commerja-X Company Products, and we may permanently disable or delete your account. We may also disable or delete your account if you repeatedly infringe other people’s intellectual property rights or where we are required to do so for legal reasons.

We may disable or delete your account if after registration your account is not confirmed, your account is unused and remains inactive for an extended period, or if we detect someone may have used it without your permission and we are unable to confirm your ownership of the account.

Where we take such action we’ll let you know and explain any options you have to request a review, unless doing so may expose us or others to legal liability; harm our community of users; compromise or interfere with the integrity or operation of any of our services, systems or Products; where we are restricted due to technical limitations; or where we are prohibited from doing so for legal reasons.

You can write us about what you can do if your account has been disabled and how to contact us if you think we have disabled your account by mistake.

If you delete or we disable or delete your account, these Terms shall terminate as an agreement between you and us, but the following provisions will remain in place in relation to the time for total removal.

  1. Limits on liability
    We work hard to provide the best Products we can and to specify clear guidelines for everyone who uses them. Our Products, however, are provided "as is," and we make no guarantees that they always will be safe, secure, or error-free, or that they will function without disruptions, delays, or imperfections. To the extent permitted by law, we also DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not control or direct what people and others do or say, and we are not responsible for their actions or conduct (whether online or offline) or any content they share (including offensive, inappropriate, obscene, unlawful, and other objectionable content).

We cannot predict when issues might arise with our Products. Accordingly, our liability shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and under no circumstance will we be liable to you for any lost profits, revenues, information, or data, or consequential, special, indirect, exemplary, punitive, or incidental damages arising out of or related to these Terms or the Commerja-X Products (however caused and on any theory of liability, including negligence), even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the Commerja-X Products will not exceed the greater than the minimum stake of one hundred Xca$h. Furthermore, as a stakeholder it is not permitted to sue yourself and the amount of revenue you have generated from the usage or holding a stake in the platform, shall be the prepayment total amount for any compensation or settlement figure, to settle any suit that may arise from any user. Acceptance and or conversion of points on the platform indicates your formal acceptance to these final settlement terms.

  1. Disputes
    We try to provide clear rules so that we can limit or hopefully avoid disputes between you and us. If a dispute does arise, however, it is useful to know up front where it can be resolved and what laws will apply.

You and Commerja-X each agree that any claim, cause of action, or dispute between us that arises out of or relates to these Terms or your access or use of the Commerja-X Products shall be resolved exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California or a state court located in San Mateo County. You also agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim, and that the laws of the State of California will govern these Terms and any claim, cause of action, or dispute without regard to conflict of law provisions. Without prejudice to the foregoing, you agree that, in its sole discretion, Commerja-X may bring any claim, cause of action, or dispute we have against you in any competent court in the country in which you reside that has jurisdiction over the claim.

  1. Other

    1. These Terms (formerly known as the Statement of Rights and Responsibilities) make up the entire agreement between you and Commerja-X Platforms, Inc. regarding your use of our Products. They supersede any prior agreements.
    2.  Products we offer are also governed by supplemental terms. If you use any of those Products, supplemental terms will be made available and will become part of our agreement with you. For instance, if you access or use our Products for commercial or business purposes, such as buying ads, selling products, developing apps, managing a group or Page for your business, or using our measurement services, you must agree to our terms. If you post or share content containing music, you must comply with our copyright guidelines. To the extent any conflicts with these Terms, the content in question may be removed without your consent. These terms shall govern to the extent of the conflict.
    3. If any portion of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the unenforceable portion will be deemed amended to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and if it cannot be made enforceable, then it will be severed, and the remaining portion will remain in full force and effect. If we fail to enforce any of these Terms, it will not be considered a waiver. Any amendment to or waiver of these Terms must be made in writing and signed by us.
    4. You will not transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else without our consent.
    5. You may designate a person (called a legacy contact) to manage your account if it is memorialized. If you enable it in your settings, only your legacy contact or a person who you have identified in a valid will or similar legal document expressing clear consent to disclose your content to that person upon death or incapacity will be able to seek limited disclosure of information from your account after it is memorialized.
    6. These Terms do not confer any third-party beneficiary rights. All our rights and obligations under these Terms are freely assignable by us in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise.
    7. We may need to change the username for your account in certain circumstances (for example, if someone else claims the username and it appears unrelated to the name you use in everyday life).
    8. We always appreciate your feedback and other suggestions about our products and services. But we may use feedback and other suggestions without any restriction or obligation to compensate you, and we are under no obligation to keep them confidential.
    9. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you.
  1. Other terms and policies that may apply to you
