4. STORMRAKE DIGITAL CURRENCY SERVICES

4.1 In General. Your Stormrake Currency Account enables you to buy Digital and Fiat  Currency using: 

Central bank issued currency (such as AUD or USD) supported by Stormrake. Conversely, when you sell Digital Currency you may elect to receive: Central bank issued currency (such as AUD or USD) supported by Stormrake. 

4.2 Fiat Currency Transactions. You may purchase supported Fiat Currency. As with Digital Currency this will be limited to Fiat Currencies Stormrake support. 

4.3 Transaction Fulfilment. We will make reasonable efforts to fulfil all purchases of  Currency, but in some circumstances, we may be unable to. If this is the case, we will  notify you and seek your further instructions.

4.4 Payment Methods. Payment in AUD (or other agreed currency is expected to be  made and cleared before any transactions are entered into. Stormrake may allow you to pay after a trade is made only at its sole discretion.

4.5 Conversion Fees. Each purchase or sale of Digital Currency is subject to a fee (a  "Brokerage Fee"). The applicable Fee will be agreed with you upon account opening.  We may adjust our Brokerage Fees at any time but we will communicate that to you  before your next transaction. We will not process a transaction if the Brokerage Fee and  any other associated fees would, together, exceed the value of your transaction. 

4.6 Prices or Order Types. Each transaction will be quoted against a chosen base currency. Various order types exist including market orders in which price is not known until the order is complete. Stormrake may at its discretion allow complex transactions that may involve tiered buying but only with your agreement. 

When placing a market order. You agree to accept that rates may change significantly from the time you authorize a transaction to the time it is executed. We do not guarantee that you will be able to buy and / or sell your Currency on the open market at any particular price or time. 

4.7 Authorisations; Reversals; Cancellations. By issuing email or verbal instructions  to Stormrake to BUY, SELL or Transfer Currency you are authorising an irreversible  action. You cannot cancel, reverse, or change any transaction once it is marked as complete. 

4.8 Digital Currency Transactions. We will process Currency Transactions in accordance with the instructions we receive from you. You should verify all transaction information prior to submitting instructions to us. We will have no liability or responsibility  for ensuring that the information you provide is accurate and complete. 

We may charge network fees ("miner fees") to process a Digital Currency Withdrawal / Other Transaction on your behalf. We will calculate the miner fees at our discretion, although we will always  notify you of the miner fees at (or before) the time you authorise the Digital Currency transfer. Miner fees for each individual transaction will be disclosed to you at the  time of purchase. When you or a third party sends Digital Currency to a Stormrake wallet  from an external wallet not hosted on Stormrake, the person initiating the transaction is  solely responsible for executing the transaction properly, which may include, among  other things, payment of miner’s fees in order for the transaction to be successful. Non payment of miner fees may cause your transaction to remain in a pending state outside of Stormrake control and we are not responsible for delays or loss incurred as a result of  an error in the initiation of the transaction and have no obligation to assist in the remediation of such transactions. 

Once submitted to a Digital Currency network, a Digital Currency Transaction will be unconfirmed for a period of time pending sufficient confirmation of the transaction by the  Digital Currency network. A Digital Currency Transfer is not complete while it is in a  pending state. Digital Currency associated with Digital Currency Transactions that are in a pending state will be designated accordingly and will not be included in your Digital Currency Wallet balance or be available to conduct Digital Currency Transactions until  confirmed by the network.

You are solely responsible for the fees required to transfer Digital Currencies and the  amount that arrives in Stormrake’s wallet is the amount that will be credited to your  Stormrake Account. 

*We may also refuse to process or cancel any pending Digital Currency Transaction as  required by law, regulation or any court or other authority to which Stormrake is subject in any jurisdiction.

4.9 Supported Digital Currencies. Our Digital Currency Services are available only in  connection with those digital currencies that Stormrake supports, and this may change  from time to time. 

Stormrake will let you know prior to a trade occurring if a currency you would like to Buy,  Sell or Store is not an available currency. 

4.10 Complex Currency Transactions. If you request a complex purchase or sale of  Digital or Fiat Currency that is required to run over an extended period of time, and that order is accepted by Stormrake you understand that circumstances may change and if  we are not able to execute part of a transaction we may either ask for further instructions  or be forced to cancel the future component of the trade. In this situation any partially completed transactions that have already taken place would stand. 

4.11 Digital Currency Storage & Transmission Delays. Stormrake securely stores Digital Currency private keys, in a combination of online and offline storage. As a result  of our security protocols, it may be necessary for us to retrieve private keys or related information from offline storage in order to facilitate a Digital Currency Transaction in  accordance with your instructions, and you acknowledge that this may delay the  initiation or crediting of such Digital Currency Transaction. 

4.12 Your own private wallets 

When you request a withdrawal of crypto currency to your own personal private wallet, you are solely responsible for providing the correct address, and if required memo or any other identifier required to successfully complete a transfer. Additionally, any such wallets should be your own. We do not support third party payments or purchases. 

We cannot restore any currency sent to an incorrect address and if this happens your funds may be lost.

4.13 Operation of Digital Currency Protocols. We do not own or control the underlying software protocols which govern the operation of Digital Currencies supported on our service. Generally, the underlying protocols are ‘open source’ and  anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them. 

We assume no responsibility for the operation of the underlying protocols and we  are not able to guarantee their functionality, security, or availability. You  acknowledge and accept the risk that underlying software protocols relating to  any Digital Currency you store in your Digital Currency Wallet may change. 

In particular, the underlying protocols are likely to be subject to sudden changes in operating rules ("forks"), and such forks may materially affect the value, function, and/or  the name of the Digital Currency you store in your Digital Currency Wallet. Where possible, we may provide you with notices or alerts on forks in accordance with Section  13.7(Contact Information) below and you must read such notices or alerts received from  us to consider how to deal with upcoming forks. However, it is your responsibility to make yourself aware of, and consider how to deal  with, upcoming forks. In the event of a fork, there is a risk that we may need to temporarily suspend operations in relation to that fork without providing advance notice to you. We may, in our reasonable discretion, decline to support either or both branches of a fork. You acknowledge the risks presented by forks and you accept that we have no  responsibility to assist you to move or sell an unsupported branch of a forked protocol. 

4.14 Digital Currency Title. All Digital Currencies held in your Digital Currency Account are custodial assets held by Stormrake for your benefit. Among other things,  this means: 

A. Title to Digital Currency shall at all times remain with you and shall not transfer it to any other company. As the owner of Digital Currency in your Digital Currency Account, you shall bear all risk of loss of such Digital Currency. Stormrake shall not have any liability for fluctuations in the fiat currency value of Digital Currency held in your Digital Currency Account.

B. At any time, subject to outages, downtime, and other applicable policies, you may withdraw your Digital Currency by sending it to a different blockchain address controlled by you by notifying us at trade@stormrake.com and allowing 48 hours for processing. 

C. In order to more securely store custody assets, Stormrake may use multiple blockchain addresses, to hold Digital Currencies held on behalf of customers and/or held on behalf of Stormrake.
