Gatu — Terms of Use

Last Updated: June 15, 2026

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website-hosted user interface currently available at app.gatu.ai (the “Interface”) and are entered into between you and Gatu Corp. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accepting these Terms, connecting a wallet or otherwise using the Interface, you confirm that you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not access or use the Interface.

1. Introduction

1.1. The Interface

The Interface is one, but not the exclusive, means of reading from and writing transactions to the permissionless Hyperliquid protocol (the “Protocol”) that runs on the Hyperliquid blockchain (“Chain”) and is distinct from the Protocol. The Protocol and the Chain are each decentralized, permissionless, and community-driven. We do not own, control, operate, or custody the Protocol or the Chain, and we cannot stop, reverse, or modify transactions on them. You acknowledge that blockchain transactions are irreversible once confirmed. By using the Interface, you acknowledge that you are not buying or selling digital assets from us and that your use of the Interface is entirely at your own risk.

1.2. Onchain Transactions

All transactions are executed on the Chain’s decentralized infrastructure through a decentralized set of validators. We are not a counterparty, broker, exchange, registered securities platform, dealer, or custodian, and we have no involvement in matching, executing, clearing, or settling Protocol transactions. You are solely responsible for any taxes and recordkeeping relating to your onchain activity.

1.3. Non-Custodial Wallet Required

To use the Interface, you must connect a non-custodial wallet, governed by that provider’s terms. We have no custody, access to, or control over your keys, seed phrases, or assets. You alone control your wallet and private keys. If you lose credentials or sign a malicious transaction, we cannot help recover funds.

1.4. Third-Party Services and Content

The Interface may rely on integrations or links to third-party services or open-source software (wallets, RPC providers, data partners, oracles, bridges, cloud infrastructure, analytics, etc.), each subject to its own terms. We do not control or endorse these and are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, or security.

2. Eligibility & Restricted Persons

2.1. Age & Capacity

You must be able to form a binding contract and be at least the age of majority where you live, and have full authority to enter into these Terms on behalf of yourself or any entity you represent.

2.2. Restricted Persons

The Interface is not developed for and is not available to “Restricted Persons,” who are strictly prohibited from accessing or using it. “Restricted Persons” include: (a) persons or entities who reside in, are located in, are incorporated in, or have a registered office or principal place of business in the United States of America, the People’s Republic of China, or the Province of Ontario (Canada); (b) persons or entities (or any person owned or controlled by them) in jurisdictions subject to comprehensive economic and trade sanctions or export control laws, including the Crimea region, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Myanmar (Burma), Donetsk, Luhansk, or any other country to which the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, U.N., or any similar authority embargoes goods or imposes similar sanctions (collectively, “Restricted Territories”); (c) citizens of Restricted Territories, regardless of location; (d) persons or entities subject to economic or trade sanctions; and (e) persons or entities residing/located/incorporated/with a registered office or principal place of business in any other jurisdiction we designate from time to time on the Interface as restricted.

2.3. No Circumvention

You must not use a VPN, proxy, Tor, or similar to circumvent geo-blocks or our eligibility rules. By using the Interface you represent and warrant that you are not a Restricted Person and are not using the Interface on behalf of any Restricted Person.

2.4. Your Compliance

You are solely responsible for ensuring your use of the Interface and any onchain activity complies with all applicable laws where you are located and subject to regulation (including laws regarding spot, synthetic, or derivatives exposure).

3. Disclaimers; Assumption of Risk

3.1. “As is.”

The Interface is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express, implied, statutory or otherwise (including merchantability, title, fitness for a purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, reliability, security or uptime). To the fullest extent permitted by law, we make no warranty that access will be continuous, uninterrupted, timely or secure, error-free, or that information will be accurate, reliable, complete, or current. You will have no recourse against us for losses arising from, among others: incorrect information or displayed values; blockchain network failures; wallet errors; unauthorized access; software errors; Third-Party Service failures; slippage or market inefficiencies; malfunction of the Protocol or Chain; or regulatory actions.

3.2. Risks You Accept

You represent that you are financially and technically sophisticated enough to understand the risks of cryptographic and blockchain-based systems. You acknowledge that these markets are nascent and highly volatile; that smart-contract transactions auto-execute and are irreversible once confirmed; that gas/transaction and Protocol fees are variable; that trading with leverage may lead to significant losses including liquidation; and that we do not broker orders, route to competing venues, or guarantee best price or best execution.

3.3. No Advice

Information on the Interface is informational only and does not constitute investment, legal, technical, tax, or other advice. You are solely responsible for your own diligence.

3.4. No Fiduciary Duties

These Terms do not create fiduciary duties, and any such duties are disclaimed and waived to the fullest extent permitted by law.
