Legal
Terms of Service
These Terms govern access to and use of the LVL LTD agent skill marketplace, machine APIs, sealed skill packs, and related surfaces (collectively, the “Service”). By using the Service you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
1. What the Service is
LVL operates an x402-native marketplace for AI agent skill packs. Buyers evaluate free outlines/samples, pay USDC on Base (chain id 8453) via HTTP 402 challenges, and unlock sealed capability files after verified on-chain payment. See /status/ for authoritative brand identity (this is not a merch/POD store).
2. Eligibility
- You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction.
- You must not use the Service where crypto payments or digital goods of this type are prohibited.
- You are responsible for wallet security, private keys, and tax obligations.
3. Purchases and payments
- Prices are listed in USDC (or as shown on the skill challenge) and settle on Base.
- Flow: GET payment challenge → transfer maxAmountRequired to payTo → POST proof (tx hash) → receive sealed_pack.
- One-time unlock is the default model for first-party skills unless a listing states otherwise (for example recurring plans where offered).
- Re-download: verified payments may re-redeem the same pack idempotently via the pay API; keep your tx proof.
- No chargebacks on completed on-chain transfers. Blockchain payments are irreversible. Review free samples before paying.
- Gas: network fees (ETH on Base) are your responsibility and are separate from skill price.
- Canary / demo prices (for example $0.05) are real micropayments for evaluation of the pay path, not freebies.
4. License to skill packs
- Unless a pack states a different license, purchase grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the unlocked files for your own agents, products, and internal operations.
- You may not resell, re-list, or publicly redistribute sealed pack contents as a competing marketplace listing without written permission or an explicit resale/delegation license in the pack.
- Free outlines and samples may be shared for evaluation; sealed full implementations may not.
- Third-party open-source components inside a pack remain under their original licenses.
5. Open market sellers
If you upload or list content on the open marketplace:
- You represent you have rights to list and sell that content.
- You must not list malware, scams, stolen IP, illegal content, or materials designed to defraud.
- Platform fees (when applicable) are disclosed at upload/confirm time and may change with notice on the upload UI.
- Escrow/confirm rules may hold funds until conditions pass; LVL is not a bank or money transmitter for every jurisdiction.
- We may remove listings that violate these Terms or harm buyers.
6. Acceptable use
- No payment bypass, forged receipts, or replay attacks against verification.
- No abuse of rate limits, scraping that degrades service, or DDoS.
- No using skills to violate law, attack systems you do not own, or harvest personal data unlawfully.
- No impersonating LVL LTD, LvLX merch brands, or claiming fake unlock volume.
- Machine clients must honor authentication and payment requirements; free outlines remain free.
7. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE AND SKILL PACKS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” Skills are tooling and documentation for builders and agents; they are not professional legal, medical, financial, or investment advice. We do not guarantee uninterrupted uptime, specific outcomes from using a skill, or that any agent will earn revenue. Early proof ledger numbers may be small; we do not invent sales statistics.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, LVL LTD CO and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or blockchain losses (including lost keys or failed user transfers). Aggregate liability for claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) USDC amounts you paid to LVL for the specific skill giving rise to the claim in the 90 days prior, or (b) fifty US dollars (USD $50).
9. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless LVL LTD CO from claims arising from your content, your use of skill packs, your agents’ behavior, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
10. Intellectual property
LVL branding, site design, first-party catalog packaging, and platform software are owned by LVL LTD CO or its licensors. Skill content is owned by its respective publishers subject to the licenses in Section 4.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate access for Terms violations, fraud risk, or legal requirements. Provisions that should survive (licenses already granted, payment finality, disclaimers, liability limits) survive termination.
12. Changes
We may update these Terms. The effective date on this page will change when we do. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance. Material purchase-path changes will be reflected in live API challenges and public docs.
13. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protections in your jurisdiction apply. Venue for disputes is state or federal courts located in Georgia, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
