Terms of Service
Last updated 18 July 2026
0FACE is non-custodial software run by individuals — not a company, broker, MSB or custodian, and not affiliated with any research publication, trading desk or media brand. We screen for sanctions/AML and may request KYC or refuse a swap. You control your keys.
1. Agreement to Terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the 0FACE interface at swap.toptraders0x.com (the “Interface”). By accessing or using the Interface you agree to these Terms and to the Risk & Disclosures, Privacy and AML & Compliance policies, which are incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Interface.
2. Definitions
“You” means the person accessing the Interface. “We”/“us” means the operators of 0FACE. “Digital Assets” means crypto-assets and tokens. “Liquidity Venue” means an independent third party that sources liquidity or executes a swap. “Restricted Person” and “Restricted Jurisdiction” have the meanings in the AML & Compliance policy.
3. Who we are — no entity
No company, no entity. 0FACE is an independent project operated by individuals. It is not an incorporated company, a licensed money-services business, broker, exchange or virtual-asset service provider, a registered investment adviser, or a regulated financial institution. Nothing here creates a corporation, partnership, employment, agency or fiduciary relationship between you and us.
4. Independence & no affiliation
Independence. 0FACE is an independent software product. It is separate and legally distinct from any research publication, trading desk, newsletter or media brand, and its operators are not, for the purposes of these Terms, the same party as the operators of any such publication. Use of, or any statement, holding, position or liability relating to, one project does not create rights or liabilities in respect of the other.
5. Non-custodial software — an interface aggregator, not an exchange
The Interface is an interface-level aggregator: it selects a route and passes execution to independent third-party providers — instant exchangers, DEXs, bridges and other Liquidity Venues. It is not itself an exchange and does not execute swaps. The Interface is non-custodial software and a routing layer. It never takes possession or control of your Digital Assets or private keys, holds no client funds, and operates no pooled or omnibus balance. A swap moves value directly between your self-custodial wallet and independent Liquidity Venues via smart contracts and quote signers.
We do not act as a broker, dealer, exchange, money transmitter, money-services business, custodian, bank, exchanger, or investment adviser, and we do not execute trades for your account. You transact on your own behalf, at your own discretion and risk.
For clarity, 0FACE:
- is not a crypto exchange;
- does not hold or store your assets;
- does not perform clearing or settlement;
- is not a counterparty to your swap;
- only provides an interface and routing.
The swap itself is executed by third parties — instant exchangers, protocols, bridges, or the blockchain networks themselves. Their own Terms of Service also become binding on you for the executed leg of the transaction. 0FACE is a non-custodial aggregator operating through a network of third-party executors.
6. Eligibility & representations
By using the Interface you represent and warrant, each time you use it, that: (a) you are at least 18 and have full legal capacity; (a-1) you are not a politically exposed person (PEP), an immediate family member or close associate of one; (a-2) you are not a U.S. citizen or resident, are not physically located in the United States, and are not a U.S.-incorporated or U.S.-organised company or organisation; (b) you are not a Restricted Person and are not located in, resident in, or accessing the Interface from a Restricted Jurisdiction; (c) you are not on any sanctions list and are not acting for anyone who is; (d) your Digital Assets are not derived from unlawful activity; and (e) your use complies with all laws, regulations, and tax obligations that apply to you.
7. AML, KYC & sanctions
You acknowledge and agree that, to protect the integrity of the service and comply with applicable anti-money-laundering (AML), counter-terrorist-financing (CTF) and sanctions requirements, we and the Liquidity Venues may take any of the following at any time, without notice and without liability to you:
- Screen wallet addresses and transactions against sanctions and watch lists and using blockchain-analytics tools, including for indirect or “tainted” exposure.
- Request identity verification (KYC) or source-of-funds information as a condition of processing, and decline to proceed until it is provided and satisfactory.
- Refuse, delay, hold, reverse or refund a swap, or restrict or terminate your access, where we reasonably suspect sanctions exposure, fraud, money laundering, structuring, or breach of these Terms.
- Report to, and cooperate with, competent authorities as required by law, including filing suspicious-activity reports, and freeze or block assets where legally required.
You have no right to any particular swap being executed. Screening does not make us a custodian, money-services business or regulated institution; you retain control of your own assets at all times. You are solely responsible for your own KYC/AML and tax compliance.
8. Sanctions compliance
The Interface must not be used by, or for the benefit of, any person that is (a) the target of sanctions administered or enforced by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) — including any person on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List — the U.S. State or Commerce Departments, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, His Majesty's Treasury (UK), or other relevant authority; or (b) located, organised or resident in a comprehensively sanctioned country or region.
You agree not to use the Interface to evade, or to facilitate the evasion of, any sanctions, export-control or AML/CTF law. Breach of this section is a material breach of these Terms.
9. Prohibited use
- Access from, or for anyone in, a Restricted Jurisdiction or by a Restricted Person.
- Money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions evasion, fraud, or funding illegal activity.
- Circumventing screening, geo-restrictions or these Terms, including by use of VPNs, Tor or onion routing, proxies, or any other means of masking your location where the purpose is to evade geographic restrictions. Any such use automatically terminates your right to use the Interface.
- Market manipulation or infringing others' rights.
- Automated abuse, scraping, or attacks on the Interface or Liquidity Venues.
10. Third-party Liquidity Venues
Routing may use independent Liquidity Venues (RFQ desks, cross-chain DEXs, market makers). We do not control and are not responsible for them, their pricing, availability, solvency, or conduct, and named venues do not imply their endorsement of 0FACE. Your swap is also subject to their terms, and an individual Liquidity Venue may decline a transaction or a jurisdiction under its own rules even where these Terms do not prohibit it. Execution risk sits with you and the executing provider: once a route is handed to a Liquidity Venue, performance of the swap — including delays, holds arising from that venue’s AML screening, misdirected transfers, and losses caused by that venue — is a matter between you and that venue, and to the maximum extent permitted by law we accept no responsibility for it.
11. Quotes, execution & refunds
Quotes are indicative until you sign and can change with the market. A route is offered only when a guaranteed minimum received can be quoted; if execution cannot meet it, the transaction reverts and is refunded to your source address minus network fees already spent. ETAs are historical medians, not guarantees. During the alpha, figures are illustrative and are not an executable offer.
12. Intellectual property
The Interface, its software, brand and content are ours or our licensors'; you receive a limited, revocable, non-exclusive licence to use the Interface for its intended purpose only.
13. Assumption of risk
You have read and accept the Risk & Disclosures. Digital Assets are volatile and can lose all value; smart-contract, bridge and Liquidity-Venue failures can cause loss. You assume these risks.
14. Disclaimer of warranties
THE INTERFACE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION.
15. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE AND OUR CONTRIBUTORS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, ASSETS OR DATA, ARISING FROM THE INTERFACE, ANY LIQUIDITY VENUE, SMART-CONTRACT FAILURE, SANCTIONS ACTION, OR MARKET LOSS — WHETHER OR NOT WE WERE ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THIS INCLUDES ANY TRANSACTION THAT IS DELAYED OR STUCK, HELD OR BLOCKED BY AML OR SANCTIONS SCREENING, SENT TO AN INCORRECT ADDRESS, OR LOST THROUGH A THIRD-PARTY SERVICE; AND ANY LOSS ARISING FROM: INDIRECT DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS; DECLINE IN ASSET VALUE; MISSED OPPORTUNITIES; ERRORS AND DELAYS; HACKS OR EXPLOITS; THIRD-PARTY PROTOCOL FAILURES; LAW-ENFORCEMENT ACTION; FEES OR COMMISSIONS; LIQUIDATIONS; USER ERROR; LOSS OF PRIVATE KEYS OR SEED PHRASES; OR NETWORK AND INTERNET FAILURES. Where liability cannot be excluded, our total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising out of or relating to the Interface is limited to one hundred U.S. dollars (US $100), or the minimum amount permitted by mandatory law if higher.
16. Indemnification
You will defend, indemnify and hold us and our contributors harmless from claims, losses and costs (including legal fees) arising from your use of the Interface, your Digital Assets, or your breach of these Terms or of any law, including sanctions and AML law.
17. Changes, restriction & termination
We may amend these Terms or modify, suspend or discontinue the Interface at any time; continued use after changes is acceptance, shown by the “last updated” date.
We may, without prior notice: restrict a wallet; block access; stop your use of the Interface; disable a login or other identifier; suspend the service in whole; or refer the matter to a third-party provider.
Grounds for such action are not limited to a proven violation. It is sufficient that, in our judgment or a partner venue’s judgment, the activity: appears suspicious; creates legal risk; may be connected to sanctions; may be connected to fraud; harms the platform’s reputation; or may breach a partner’s rules.
If you believe a restriction was applied in error, contact . We review such requests in good faith, but these Terms do not guarantee a response within any particular time, an unblocking, or any compensation.
18. Governing law & disputes
Because we are individuals and not a registered entity, these Terms are governed by the mandatory consumer laws of your own country of residence to the extent they apply, without reference to conflict-of-laws rules.
Mandatory pre-dispute procedure. Before starting any formal proceeding, you must first send a written claim to containing: your full name, address, email, a description of the dispute, and the specific relief you seek. From receipt of a complete claim there is a period of up to 60 days for informal resolution; we may ask for a personal call or messenger conversation to resolve the matter. We aim to resolve issues directly and in good faith.
Individual resolution only. To the maximum extent permitted by the law of your residence: disputes are resolved on an individual basis — class actions and the joining of claims of multiple users are waived; each party ordinarily bears its own legal costs; any dispute-resolution proceeding is confidential and its outcome final. Where mandatory consumer law grants you non-waivable rights (including the right to sue in your local courts), those rights prevail over this section.
If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of it.
19. Official channels
The only authoritative channels for 0FACE are the domain swap.toptraders0x.com and 0FACE's official X (Twitter) account, announced on the site at launch. We will never message you first asking for funds, seed phrases or private keys. Report impersonation to .
