2. Definitions and services offered

HashPack is a wallet application which consists of:

2.1. Hedera wallet service
HashPack has created means for users to access and transfer ownership of virtual currency tokens (‘Cryptocurrency’), such as HBAR. By entering into this agreement You will receive a license to use any of the HashPack Applications. You should only use the HashPack Application if you are familiar with cryptocurrencies. We highly recommend learning the basics of HBAR and the Hedera network before running the application.

2.1.1. You own your private keys
HashPack does not store Your private keys, backup phrases or passwords (“Private Information”) on it’s servers. It is very important that You backup and save your Private Information. We urge you to write down your backup phrase and store it offline in two different places. If You lose Your Private Information, it will not be possible for HashPack to recover it for You and You may lose access to Your Virtual Currencies. HashPack don’t have access to your wallet, your funds, your transactions or any other information. If You do not understand the above paragraph then we strictly recommend that You learn more about Virtual Currencies before using the HashPack Application. If you do not maintain a backup of your HashPack data outside of the Services, you will not be able to access the Virtual Currency associated with your Wallet.

2.1.2. Transactions
The only authentic record of Virtual Currency transactions is from Hedera mainnet nodes. HashPack provides functionality that allows You to send Virtual Currency transfer instructions. HashPack does not guarantee that Your transactions will be delivered, because Your transaction from HashPack Applications shall be added and stored on the Hedera network. There may be transaction fees associated with HBar transactions. HashPack shall not be responsible for any losses You incur due to transaction fees or losses that occur due to incorrectly set transaction fees (i.e. too low or high). HashPack does not have access to Your transactions (or anyone else’s).

2.1.3. No control over blockchains
HashPack is not the creator of and does not have any control over any of the Virtual Currencies that the HashPack Application allows You to use. Your balance and actual transaction history are supported by Hedera mirror nodes. All fees are determined by the Hedera network, HashPack has no control over their amount.

2.1.4. Service fees
HashPack may charge fees for usage of specific services within the HashPack Application. Fees will be summarized in the approval screen prior to submission of a transaction.
