- 3) Information about Blotix token called BLX
-
General restrictions; Fork: Blotix issues and redeems BLX tokens. BLX tokens can be used, stored or traded online wherever parties are willing to accept BLX tokens. BLX tokens are 100% backed by Blotix Reserves. BLX Tokens are denominated in a range of Fiats. For example, if you purchase BLX, your BLX tokens are pegged 1-to-1 to euros. If you are issued BLX 100.00, Blotix holds reserves worth €100.00 to back those BLX tokens. The composition of the Reserves used to back the BLX Tokens is under the sole control and at the sole and absolute discretion of Blotix. BLX tokens are backed by Blotix Reserves, including Fiat, but BLX tokens are not Fiat themselves. Blotix will not issue BLX Tokens consisting of Digital Tokens (for example bitcoin) for consideration; at the time of issue only money will be accepted. To have BLX tokens issued or redeemed directly by Blotix, you must be a verified Blotix customer. No exceptions will be made to this provision. The right to redeem or issue BLX tokens is your personal contractual right. Blotix reserves the right to delay the redemption or withdrawal of BLX Tokens if such delay is necessitated by the illiquidity, unavailability or loss of any reserves held by Blotix to support the BLX Tokens, and Blotix reserves the right to redeem BLX tokens for in-kind redemptions of securities and other assets held in the Reserves. Blotix makes no representations or warranties that BLX tokens that may be traded on the Site may be traded on the Site at any time in the future, if at all. BLX tokens are issued on various decentralized and open source blockchains and protocols. Blockchains and protocols can sometimes experience events called “forks” where an alternative version of a blockchain or protocol is created. Where forks occur, multiple versions of a digital token available on that blockchain or protocol may be created, for example, one on each fork. Due to the nature of BLX tokens, if a fork creates two or more digital tokens purporting to be a BLX token, it is only possible that one of those digital tokens is a BLX token. As a result, in the event of a fork, only digital tokens on the particular blockchain or protocol that Blotix advertises on its website as supported by Blotix are BLX tokens. Any other digital tokens resulting from the fork are not BLX tokens.
Blotix has no obligation to support any particular blockchain or protocol, any forked version of a particular blockchain or protocol, or any digital token resulting from a fork of a blockchain. Where a blockchain or protocol on which BLX tokens are issued is forked, Blotix may choose to suspend the Services temporarily or for an extended period of time with little or no notice. Blotix will determine, in its sole discretion, whether to support a particular fork of a blockchain or protocol or whether to cease support for all versions of a particular blockchain or protocol. Where Blotix decides to cease support for a particular blockchain or protocol, you will take all actions reasonably necessary to migrate your BLX token to a supported blockchain or protocol identified by Blotix. Blotix assumes no liability arising out of or relating to your failure to effect such migration of your BLX token to another blockchain or protocol identified by Blotix.
Blotix assumes no responsibility for any losses or other issues that may arise from Blotix is choice to support or not support a particular blockchain or protocol, any forked version of any particular blockchain or protocol, or any digital token resulting from a fork of a blockchain or protocol.
It is also possible that a third party could create a digital token that claims to be an alternative version of a BLX token, such as "wrapping" or "bridging" BLX tokens. These digital tokens are not BLX tokens. They are not issued or supported by Blotix. They cannot be redeemed with Blotix.

-
From time to time, Blotix receives information requests about its customers from law enforcement agencies around the world. This page is here to provide you and law enforcement with information about how these requests are processed.
When Blotix is contacted, law enforcement is generally interested in two types of data: information about customers’ identities and information about their activities using Blotix Tokens. As well, as part of their investigation, law enforcement may be interested in requesting that an address is frozen.
When information requests are received, Blotix requires that it be accompanied by appropriate legal process. This can vary from place to place. For example, production orders, search warrants, and subpoenas, but also requests for voluntary disclosure of data may all amount to legal process. Blotix reviews each order and request for voluntary disclosure to determine that it has valid legal basis and that any response is narrowly tailored to ensure that only the data to which law enforcement is entitled is provided. Similarly, requests to freeze Blotix addresses should be accompanied by appropriate legal process.
Blotix also reserves the right to make disclosures to authorities in order to protect itself, any Associates, and its customers.
Blotix welcomes inquiries from law enforcement agencies about its policies and procedures. Please contact Blotix at info@blotix.org. - Cookies Policy
