Terms of Service

Effective Date: December 13, 2025

Welcome to Taberna ("Taberna," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Taberna website, platform, or related services (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). Please read them carefully before using our Service.

1. Acceptance of terms

By creating an account or using Taberna, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not accept these Terms, you must not use the Service. You must be at least the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction to use Taberna, and if you act on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity.

2. Account registration and newsletter

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating your account and to keep it updated. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. If you suspect unauthorized access, contact support@taberna.io immediately.

By creating an account, you agree that your email address will be added to Taberna's marketing newsletter list. You can opt out at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link included in any marketing email you receive.

3. Platform services

Taberna provides tools that allow users to list, sell, and purchase digital products or services. Taberna operates as a platform provider and is generally not a party to transactions between buyers and sellers unless explicitly stated otherwise.

  • Sellers are solely responsible for the legality, accuracy, and quality of the products or content they list.
  • Buyers are responsible for reviewing product information and any seller terms before making a purchase.
  • Taberna may remove listings, suspend accounts, or restrict access if activity is suspected to violate these Terms or applicable law.

4. Payments, fees, and crypto

4.1 Third-party payment processors

Taberna may use third-party payment processors (the "Payment Processors") for fiat currency transactions. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions, and privacy policies of the applicable Payment Processor in addition to these Terms. Taberna is not responsible for errors, delays, chargebacks, or other issues caused by Payment Processors.

4.2 Internal crypto payment system

Taberna also offers an internal payment system that supports cryptocurrency payments ("Crypto Payments"). By choosing to pay or receive payments in cryptocurrency, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • Cryptocurrency transactions, once confirmed on the relevant blockchain, are generally final and irreversible.
  • You bear all risks related to entering incorrect wallet addresses, network selection errors, or loss of access to your wallets or private keys.
  • Taberna is not responsible for delays or failed transactions resulting from blockchain congestion, network forks, technical failures, or maintenance.
  • Taberna may, at its discretion, disable, restrict, or modify Crypto Payments for specific users, regions, or assets where required for legal, security, or risk reasons.

4.3 Fees and exchange rates

Taberna may charge service, platform, or transaction fees, which will be disclosed in your account or at checkout. Any applicable fees are non-refundable except where required by law. Where currency conversion (including fiat-crypto or crypto-crypto) occurs, rates may be provided by Payment Processors, liquidity partners, or Taberna's internal systems at the time of the transaction.

5. AML/KYC compliance

To comply with applicable Anti-Money Laundering ("AML") and Know Your Customer ("KYC") laws and regulations, Taberna may require identity verification from users, particularly those using Crypto Payments or engaging in higher-risk or higher-value activity.

You agree that Taberna may:

  • Request and collect information such as your name, date of birth, address, government-issued identification, and other documents or data as reasonably required.
  • Restrict, delay, or block access to certain features (including withdrawals or Crypto Payments) until requested information is provided and verified.
  • Monitor and review transactions and account activity for suspicious patterns and report such activity to relevant authorities or partners where required by law.
  • Refuse to open, or subsequently close, any account that Taberna reasonably believes may be associated with fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions violations, or other unlawful conduct.

You are responsible for ensuring that your use of Taberna and any Crypto Payments complies with tax, reporting, and other legal obligations in your jurisdiction.

6. Crypto risk disclosure

Cryptocurrencies and digital assets involve significant risks that may not be suitable for all users. By using Crypto Payments on Taberna, you expressly acknowledge and agree that:

  • The value of cryptocurrencies can be extremely volatile and may fluctuate widely over short periods. You may lose some or all of the value of any cryptocurrency you hold or accept.
  • Regulatory frameworks for cryptocurrencies may change quickly and can affect availability, legality, or functionality of certain assets or services.
  • Technical risks include, but are not limited to, smart-contract vulnerabilities, blockchain reorganizations, network attacks, wallet compromise, and irreversible transactions.
  • Taberna does not provide investment, legal, tax, or financial advice, and nothing on the Service should be interpreted as such. You are solely responsible for evaluating whether using cryptocurrencies is appropriate for your situation and risk tolerance.
  • Taberna is not liable for any losses resulting from market movements, protocol changes, delistings, or regulatory actions that impact cryptocurrencies used on the platform.

Your decision to use Crypto Payments is entirely at your own risk.

7. Prohibited activities

You agree not to use Taberna to:

  • Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party rights.
  • Sell, distribute, or promote illegal, infringing, or harmful content or products.
  • Commit or attempt fraud, chargeback abuse, phishing, or other deceptive practices.
  • Use the Service in connection with money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions evasion, or other unlawful financial activity.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the security or integrity of the Service, including attempts to bypass payment systems or technical protections.

Taberna may suspend or terminate accounts and take other actions it deems appropriate in response to suspected violations.

8. Intellectual property

The Service, including software, design, trademarks, and branding, is protected by intellectual property laws and remains the property of Taberna or its licensors. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works based on the Service except as permitted by these Terms or with written permission.

You retain ownership of content and products you upload or sell through Taberna, but you grant Taberna a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, display, and use such content as necessary to operate, promote, and improve the Service.

9. Termination

Taberna may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason, including breach of these Terms, AML/KYC concerns, or legal requirements. You may close your account at any time via your account settings or by contacting support.

Termination does not affect completed blockchain transactions, which generally cannot be reversed. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including those relating to payments, intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitations of liability) will remain in effect.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available," without any warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Taberna does not warrant that the Service, Payment Processors, or blockchain networks will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent allowed by law, Taberna and its affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the Service or Crypto Payments. In no event will Taberna's total aggregate liability for all claims exceed the amount you paid directly to Taberna in fees during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

12. Changes to these terms

Taberna may update these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms will be posted on the website with a revised "Effective Date." Your continued use of the Service after any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [Your Country/State], without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought in the courts or other dispute-resolution forums located in [Your Jurisdiction], unless applicable law requires a different venue.
