Terms of Service

Last Updated: September 1, 2026

These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“you” or “your”) and 7 Candlesticks, Inc. (collectively with its affiliates, “Candle,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms govern your use of the Candle Services, which include the website available at https://www.candle.tv, its network of websites, software applications, smart contracts, and any other products or services offered by Candle, including the Candle Platform designed to assist with the creation and trading of Digital Assets. Candle Services may be provided by Candle or any Candle Affiliate.

When Candle presents these Terms and you click an acceptance control, create an account, or use an interactive feature after receiving conspicuous notice that doing so constitutes acceptance, you agree to these Terms and the documents expressly incorporated here. Merely viewing a publicly available page, without that notice and affirmative conduct, is not treated as acceptance of provisions that require contractual assent. If you do not agree, do not create an account or use an interactive Candle feature.

When using the Candle Services or opening an account on behalf of a company, entity, or organization (collectively, “Subscribing Organization”), you represent and warrant that you: (i) are an authorized representative of that Subscribing Organization with the authority to bind it to these Terms and grant the licenses herein; and (ii) agree to these Terms on behalf of such Subscribing Organization.


1. Introduction; Your Agreement to These Terms of Service

Section titled “1. Introduction; Your Agreement to These Terms of Service”

Welcome to the services operated by 7 Candlesticks, Inc. When using the Candle Services, you will be subject to the following documents, each of which is incorporated into these Terms by reference:

together with any additional guidelines or rules posted on the Candle Services, made available to you, or disclosed in connection with specific services and features (collectively, the “Guidelines”).

For the Candle Platform:

The Candle Platform is a digital platform designed to assist with the creation and trading of Digital Assets on the Solana and Robinhood Chain (“Hood”) blockchains, and to route transactions to third-party blockchain protocols. By using the Candle Platform, you enter into a legally binding agreement with us governed by these Terms. You must read these Terms and any referenced documents carefully and contact us if you do not understand anything.

How the interface works. Candle provides software through which users initiate transactions with public blockchains and third-party protocols. As currently designed, Candle does not take possession of user Digital Assets or act as principal to user trades. The legal characterization of a service is determined by applicable law and its actual operation, not by this description.

2. Eligibility; Minors and Blocked Persons

Section titled “2. Eligibility; Minors and Blocked Persons”

a. Age

The Candle Services are not available to persons under the age of 13.

You must be at least 18 years old — or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher — to use the Candle Platform, which includes trading, launching tokens, staking, minting NFTs, tipping, and any other feature involving Digital Assets. Persons aged 13 to 17 may view public content only, and only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms.

BY ACCESSING OR USING THE CANDLE PLATFORM, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE. BY ACCESSING OR USING ANY OTHER PART OF THE CANDLE SERVICES, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 13 YEARS OF AGE, THAT YOUR PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN AGREES TO THESE TERMS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF LEGAL MAJORITY, AND THAT YOU HAVE NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY REMOVED OR PROHIBITED FROM RECEIVING THE CANDLE SERVICES.

b. Blocked persons and jurisdictions

To be eligible to use the Candle Platform, you must:

i. Be an individual, corporation, legal person, entity, or organization with full power, authority, and capacity to (A) access and use the Candle Platform; and (B) enter into and comply with these Terms;

ii. If acting on behalf of a legal entity, be duly authorized to bind that entity;

iii. Not be located, incorporated, or resident in, or have business operations in, a jurisdiction listed in our Prohibited & Restricted Jurisdictions page, or any jurisdiction where use of the Candle Platform would be illegal under Applicable Law or would cause us or any third party to contravene Applicable Law;

iv. Not be a Sanctioned Person, and not be acting on behalf of a Sanctioned Person, as described in our AML & Sanctions Policy.

You represent and warrant that each of the above is true every time you use the Candle Platform, not only when you first register.

We may amend eligibility criteria at our discretion, providing notice where possible, though immediate changes may occur without prior notice if required by law, in your interest, or for other valid reasons.

Your privacy is important to us. Please see our Privacy Policy for information on how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information, and our Cookie Notice for how cookies and similar technologies are used. You acknowledge that you have read and understood our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

a. Signing in

You can create a Candle account by signing in with Google, with X, or by connecting a supported self-custodial wallet. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and wallet, restricting access to your devices, and all activities under your account. Information provided must be true, accurate, current, and complete. You may not sell, rent, lease, transfer, or share your account without our written permission.

b. Embedded wallets

If you sign in with Google or X, wallets are created for you and made available through your account. Candle provisions an embedded wallet on both Solana and Hood for every account. These wallets are provided and secured by Privy.io. Candle does not hold, control, or have access to your private keys. See section 29.

c. Transaction signing without a confirmation prompt

d. Third-party accounts

You may register, log in, or link third-party services (including Google, X, Discord, Twitch, and YouTube), subject to their own terms and privacy notices. Where you link an account, you authorize Candle to access and store the information and access credentials described in our Privacy Policy. You may unlink at any time.

e. Equipment

Access to the Candle Services requires your personal computer or mobile device and internet connectivity. You are responsible for any associated fees or charges from third parties.

You acknowledge and agree that:

a. Transactions you initiate through the Candle Platform are executed on public blockchains and by third-party smart contracts and protocols, including Meteora, Jupiter, Uniswap, and Relay. Candle does not control those protocols.

b. Blockchain transactions are irreversible. Once submitted and confirmed, a transaction cannot be cancelled, reversed, or refunded by Candle.

c. You are responsible for network fees (gas) and for the accuracy of every transaction you initiate, including addresses, amounts, slippage tolerances, and chain selection.

d. Blockchain networks may experience congestion, forks, reorganizations, outages, or attacks. Transactions may fail, be delayed, or execute at prices different from those displayed.

e. Prices, quotes, balances, and curve progress displayed in the interface are estimates derived from third-party data sources and on-chain state at a point in time. They may be inaccurate or stale.

f. Cross-chain transactions carry additional risk. A cross-chain purchase involves a bridge leg and a destination-chain leg. The bridge leg may succeed while the destination leg does not, leaving you holding the bridged asset on the destination chain. Candle will surface this where it can detect it, but cannot guarantee recovery or completion.

g. Candle does not guarantee that any bonding curve will reach graduation, that any token will migrate to a liquidity pool, or that any market will exist for any token.

We may amend these Terms by posting revised terms and updating the “Last Updated” date. Where required by law, or where a change materially affects your rights, we will provide advance notice and request renewed assent. Other changes become effective on the date stated in the notice or revised Terms. If you do not agree, you must stop using the affected Candle Services.

Fees. We may adjust fees from time to time, including introducing new fees. Current fees are published at Fees. If you do not accept a change, cease using the Candle Services; continued use constitutes acceptance.

The Candle Services, including all content and materials (excluding User Content), are owned by Candle or its affiliates/licensors and protected by intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Candle Services for personal or internal business use only, subject to these Terms. Prohibited uses include resale, distribution, modification, or data mining without our prior written permission.

Candle allows you to create, post, transmit, or store User Content (e.g., audio-visual works, streams, clips, chat messages, profile information, and token metadata) on the Candle Services.

a. License to Candle

You grant Candle a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to host, reproduce, transmit, display, adapt, and distribute your User Content only as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and promote the Candle Services. This includes using a submitted name or likeness in connection with that content. The licence ends when the content is deleted from the Candle Services, except to the extent copies remain in reasonable backups, were shared with others through the Services, were used in promotional material created before deletion, or must be retained for legal, safety, or evidentiary purposes.

b. Representations and warranties

You are responsible for your User Content. You warrant that you own or have all rights necessary to it, that it does not infringe third-party rights, and that it contains no harmful code.

c. Content is uploaded at your own risk

We use reasonable security measures but do not guarantee against unauthorized copying or redistribution. You waive claims against us for such incidents to the extent permitted by law.

d. Promotions

You may conduct promotions if compliant with applicable law and these Terms, using required disclaimers. Candle is not responsible for promotions run by users.

e. Political activity

You may engage in political activities if eligible under law, but may not use monetization tools for political contributions.

You may publish Branded Content (e.g., paid promotions), ensuring compliance with advertising laws, including the FTC Endorsement Guides. Paid promotion of a Digital Asset must be clearly disclosed. You are solely responsible for legal compliance.

You agree not to violate laws, contracts, or third-party rights, or commit torts, and are responsible for your conduct. Prohibited actions include uploading unlawful content, impersonation, spamming, harvesting data, interfering with security features, reverse engineering, or using the Candle Services illegally. Content standards are set out in the Community Guidelines.

For the Candle Platform, you additionally may not:

  • Breach these Terms or any incorporated document;
  • Use the Candle Platform for commercial purposes without our consent;
  • Engage in market manipulation, including pump-and-dump schemes, wash trading, spoofing, coordinated ramping, or front-running;
  • Launch a token using a name, image, likeness, or trademark you do not have the right to use;
  • Launch a token designed to defraud, including rug pulls and honeypots;
  • Provide false information, including in a token launch or a streamer application;
  • Use bots, scripts, or automated means to access the Platform except through interfaces we expressly permit;
  • Attempt to circumvent the Believer NFT gate, geographic restrictions, or any other access control;
  • Create security over Digital Assets held through the Platform without our consent;
  • Access the Platform from a jurisdiction listed in Prohibited & Restricted Jurisdictions, or use a VPN, proxy, or other means to disguise your location for that purpose;
  • Use the Platform to launder money, finance terrorism, evade sanctions, or facilitate any other financial crime.

You may simulcast live streams on other platforms if you maintain quality on Candle, avoid directing users elsewhere, and do not merge external features (e.g., chat) into your Candle stream. Candle may restream your broadcast to Candle’s own social channels, including X.

Candle retains exclusive rights to monetize the Candle Services, including advertisements. Third-party ad networks are not permitted, though Branded Content is allowed per Section 9.

We may recommend, rank, feature, or surface content and tokens, including through automated signals such as heat and activity scores. Featuring, ranking, or surfacing a token is not an endorsement, a recommendation to transact, or any representation about its merits, safety, or legitimacy.

We comply with the DMCA and other copyright laws. To report infringement, and to read our repeat-infringer policy and designated agent details, see the DMCA & Copyright Policy.

Candle’s trademarks and trade dress may not be used without permission — see the Trademark Guidelines. Other trademarks belong to their owners and do not imply endorsement.

We may provide Third-Party Content and route transactions through third-party protocols, which we do not control or endorse. Your use of linked reference sites and third-party protocols is at your own risk. Candle is not liable for the failure, exploit, insolvency, or misconduct of any third-party protocol, bridge, wallet provider, data provider, or blockchain network.

Submissions to Candle may be used or disclosed without compensation or credit.

Fees for the Candle Platform are published at Fees. You agree to pay the fees disclosed in the transaction quote you approve. On-chain execution and contract state control if an interface display conflicts with the confirmed transaction.

Platform fees are determined by Candle server-side at both quote and execution time and may be modified. The Believer NFT discounts platform trade fees by 0.5 percentage points versus Free: you pay 0.5% instead of the 1% Free agent rate. Same-chain web trades charge 0.5% for Believers (not free). Cross-chain web trades charge 1% for every trader and are not a Believer discount. See Fees and Believer NFT Terms.

We retain your personal data as needed for continued use of the Candle Platform and legal compliance (e.g., tax, AML laws). See the Privacy Policy for retention detail.

a. General

We do not guarantee successful or timely completion of transactions. Before submission, Candle may decline to construct or relay a transaction where we identify an error, legal restriction, security concern, or prohibited use. After a transaction is confirmed on-chain, Candle ordinarily cannot cancel, void, or reverse it. Transaction records may be retained as described in the Privacy Policy.

b. Submission of instructions

Transaction details you submit must be complete and accurate. You authorize Candle to use those details to construct or relay the transaction you requested. A request may fail before confirmation because of insufficient assets, expired quotes, network conditions, contract reverts, or security and legal controls. Once submitted to a public blockchain, cancellation may be impossible even before confirmation.

Specific features are governed by additional terms which form part of this agreement:

Candle may receive fees from transactions, token launches, and liquidity pools as disclosed in the interface and Fees. Candle, its affiliates, and personnel may hold Digital Assets, including $CNDL and tokens available through the Platform. Such holdings do not constitute an endorsement. Candle personnel remain subject to applicable law and any internal trading and conflicts policies. Candle does not undertake to use non-public information for your benefit and does not owe you a fiduciary duty merely because you use the Services.

Your activity may be subject to limits set at our discretion.

You are responsible for protecting your hardware and data from viruses and unauthorized access, maintaining the security of your access credentials and wallets, and monitoring your Activity History for breaches. Notify us immediately of any Security Breach, providing all requested information. We may share such information with third parties to resolve breaches.

To report a security vulnerability in Candle’s software or contracts, see our Vulnerability Disclosure Policy.

25. Intellectual Property Created for Candle

Section titled “25. Intellectual Property Created for Candle”

Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of your User Content to Candle. Intellectual property created by Candle personnel or contractors for Candle is governed by their separate employment or services agreements. If you separately agree in writing to create a commissioned work for Candle, ownership is governed by that separate agreement.

You are solely responsible for determining and paying any taxes arising from your use of the Candle Services, including from trading, staking rewards, airdrops, giveaways, NFT mints, and tips received. Candle does not provide tax advice and does not withhold or report on your behalf except where required by law. Where Candle is required to collect tax information from you, you agree to provide it.

You represent and warrant that:

  • Your decisions are based on your own independent judgment;
  • You have full authority to use the Candle Platform and enter these Terms;
  • All necessary consents and authorizations are obtained;
  • Your use of names, images, likenesses, and trademarks in connection with any Digital Asset is lawful and authorized;
  • You are not a Sanctioned Person and are not located in a Prohibited Jurisdiction;
  • These Terms are binding on you and do not breach any laws or agreements applicable to you.

The Candle Platform is provided “as is” without warranties beyond those required by law. We disclaim implied warranties (e.g., merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement) and do not guarantee uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free access. Maintenance may suspend access, and third-party links are not our responsibility.

Smart contracts. Candle’s smart contracts may contain bugs, vulnerabilities, or economic flaws. Audits, where conducted, reduce but do not eliminate risk. You use them at your own risk.

Wallets provided through the Candle Services are created and managed by Privy.io, and are subject to Privy’s own terms and privacy policy. Candle does not hold your private keys and cannot recover them. We are not liable for the operation of Privy’s infrastructure or for any resulting losses. If you lose access to your sign-in method, you may lose access to assets held in an embedded wallet.

You may terminate by ceasing use or requesting deletion of your account (see the Privacy Policy). We may terminate or suspend access without notice for violations, fraud, sanctions or legal risk, or technical or business reasons, notifying you where legally required.

For the Candle Platform: We may modify, discontinue, or restrict the Candle Platform for any reason (e.g., ineligibility, suspected fraud, legal requirements). We are not obligated to resolve disputes over stolen Digital Assets.

Termination of your Candle account does not affect Digital Assets held in a self-custodial wallet, or assets already recorded on-chain.

Candle is not liable for any failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labour disputes, epidemics, governmental action, changes in law, sanctions, failure or congestion of telecommunications or internet infrastructure, failure of any blockchain network, chain reorganization or fork, exploit or failure of any third-party protocol, bridge, oracle, or wallet provider, or the unavailability of any third-party service provider.

Candle has no obligation to support any fork of a blockchain network, to make available any forked or airdropped asset, or to continue supporting any token, chain, or protocol. Candle may choose which chain or fork to support at its sole discretion.

a. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Candle and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents against all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use or misuse of the Candle Services, your User Content, any Digital Asset you create or launch, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

b. Disclaimers; no warranties

The Candle Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties except as required by law for EU/EEA/UK/CH Consumers. We disclaim implied warranties and liability for errors, viruses, or interruptions.

c. Limitation of liability and damages

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CANDLE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR DIGITAL ASSETS, HOWEVER ARISING.

Our aggregate liability is limited to the greater of (i) the fees you paid to Candle in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (ii) US$100. This does not exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

For the Candle Platform: We are not liable for losses related to Digital Assets, market volatility, the failure or exploit of any blockchain, smart contract, bridge, or third-party protocol, the acts of third parties, or your loss of keys or credentials, except to the extent caused by our willful misconduct or fraud.

d. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles, and disputes are resolved as set out in section 33(e).

If you are a Consumer resident in the EU, EEA, UK, or Switzerland, nothing in these Terms deprives you of the protection of the mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence. Section 33(e) does not apply to you to the extent it conflicts with those mandatory protections.

e. Arbitration; class action waiver

Except as stated in section 33(d) and below, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Candle Services will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS under its applicable rules and, where applicable, the JAMS Consumer Arbitration Minimum Standards, seated in Clark County, Nevada. A consumer may participate remotely where the applicable rules or law require it. Candle will pay arbitration fees to the extent required by those standards or applicable law. The arbitrator, and not any court, has authority to resolve disputes about the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this clause, except that a court will decide issues that applicable law reserves for a court.

Class action waiver. YOU AND CANDLE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims or preside over any form of representative proceeding. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim must proceed in court and is severed from arbitration.

30-day right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to legal@candle.tv within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your name, the wallet address or account associated with your Candle account, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms, and will not affect your access to the Candle Services.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in court for infringement or misuse of intellectual property rights.

f. Time limit on claims

Claims must be commenced within one year of the date the claim arose, where permitted by law.

Waiver. No failure or delay in exercising a right operates as a waiver of it.

Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it is severed and the remainder continues in effect.

Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

Survival. Sections concerning licenses granted to Candle, indemnification, disclaimers, limitation of liability, taxes, disputes, and definitions survive termination.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the documents incorporated in section 1, constitute the entire agreement between you and Candle regarding the Candle Services.

Language. These Terms, and every document incorporated into them under section 1, are drafted and agreed in English. English is the authoritative and controlling version.

Candle publishes translations of these documents in other languages as a convenience, so that people can read them in the language they are most comfortable in. A translation is a reading aid, not a separate agreement, and Candle does not warrant that any translation is accurate or complete. Where a translation differs from the English version in meaning, effect, or emphasis — whether by error, by ambiguity, or because a legal concept has no direct equivalent in the other language — the English version governs, and the English version is what will be applied in any dispute, notice, or proceeding.

The current English text of every document is published in the English edition of these docs, and that text prevails over any translated, cached, archived, or excerpted copy.

Two limits on the above, stated because they are real rather than because we are conceding them:

  • Nothing in this clause overrides a mandatory law of your country that requires consumer terms to be supplied in a particular language, or that restricts the effect of a choice-of-language clause against a consumer. Where such a law applies to you, it applies regardless of this section.
  • Nothing in this clause limits any right or remedy you have that cannot be waived under the law applicable to you.

Notices you send to Candle under these Terms — including the notices described in the DMCA & Copyright Policy and section 33 — should be in English. We will accept a notice in another language, but we may ask for an English translation before we act on it, and any period we are given to respond runs from when we receive that translation.

No third-party beneficiaries, except that Candle’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents may enforce the disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnities in their favour.
