This right to complain applies for defects that existed at the time of delivery, even if discovered later. Claims may be made within three (3) years from delivery.

These rights are in addition to any commercial warranty provided by Sourceful.

7. Misuse of the Service​

  • Sourceful reserves the right to, in its sole discretion, deactivate, suspend or terminate the End User’s access to the Service and right to receive any future utility tokens through the Service, in the event Sourceful has reason to believe that the End User is misusing the Service in any way. Misuse of the Service shall include, but not be limited to, attempting to or misrepresenting, distorting or falsifying the input or output from the energy gateway or otherwise by conducting any fraudulent or illegal activity.

  • In the event Sourceful has suspended an End User suspected of conducting activities described above, the End User's access to the Service and right to receive tokens may be reinstated by validating that they have not used the Service in violation with the Agreement. The process for validation of the End User's conduct is described on the Sourceful website. However, Sourceful reserves the right to assess each individual situation and in its sole discretion determine when and if an End User can be reinstated.

8. Indemnification​

  • To the maximum extent permitted by applicable mandatory law, the End User agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Sourceful from and against any and all claims, actions, suits or proceedings, as well as any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) relating to (i) any non-compliance by the End User with these Terms and Conditions, (ii) any violation of applicable law, including but not limited to, infringement of any third party right relating to the End User’s use of the Services in violation with these Terms and Conditions, or (iii) a suspension of the End User’s access to or use of the Services or a deletion of the End User’s information.

Appendix 1 – Hardware Terms (Zap Device)​

1. Applicability​

These Hardware Terms supplement the Terms and Conditions and apply to the Zap device sold as a standalone product.

If there is any conflict between these Hardware Terms and the main Terms, these Hardware Terms shall prevail with respect to the Zap device. All other provisions of the Terms remain in effect.

The End User may not resell, modify, tamper with, or use the device in a manner that interferes with Sourceful’s systems or data integrity.

4. Warranty​

Sourceful provides a two (2)-year commercial warranty covering manufacturing defects from the date of delivery.

Warranty service may involve repair or replacement at Sourceful's discretion. If repair or replacement is not possible, a refund may be offered.
