SUMMARY

The purpose of UniJoin is to provide privacy for its users’ Bitcoin transactions and storage.

This means that with the use of the UniJoin service we would like to enable the users to make Bitcoin payments in such a way that their spending history, wallet balances, etc. are not trackable to the receiving party, nor to the public.

Our goal is to minimize the unintentional leaking or disclosure of private financial information to third parties and to the receiver of any transaction resulting from the use of UniJoin.

The protection of your privacy and the protection of your (personal) data is our highest priority, which also defines the essence of our services.

An instance of the UniJoin CoinJoin Coordination Server is operated by a legal entity, UniJoin Ltd. Thus, in order to legally provide our services to our clients, we have defined the framework and the rules that both parties must follow in order to protect each other.

The most important parts of the document below is summarized in the following points:

• The user is solely responsible to act according to their local laws and regulations.
• We do not store personally identifiable information. In addition, our trusted architecture prevents us from collecting this information in the first place.
• A transaction and random mixing fee (between 1-3%) is charged by the service provider for CoinJoin mixing operations.
• We only provide written chat support, and NEVER ask for recovery words, passwords or similar security critical information, but for a letter of guarantee that is provided when creating a mixing order needs to be uploaded.

The services are provided between remote parties and therefore these terms and conditions cannot be individually negotiated with clients. This document will help each of our clients to understand exactly the terms and conditions under which we can provide our services. We recommend you to first learn the basics of Bitcoin before starting to use our services.

THE COINJOIN COORDINATOR SERVICES

2.1 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

This Service consists of the Website and the CoinJoin Coordinator (both as defined below). The Service does constitute an account where we serve as financial intermediaries or custodians of Your bitcoins, but only for the time of completion of the mixing operation.

The Service is a website, with the sole purpose of allowing You access to our mixing services (as defined below), without the need or requirement to create or maintain a user account. UniJoin does store, send or receive bitcoins in order to operate a mixing process.

The CoinJoin Coordinator Service is an online service that implements CoinJoin technology to prevent third parties from spying on the Blockchain. Small sums to be mixed cooperate with a pool of already prepared coinjoined coins, and untraceable coins from this pool are sent back to you to offer a fast and smooth process. Therefore, these coins do not come directly from a coinjoined transaction, but if you follow the transactions further back, a coinjoined transaction will be visible.

Larger sums, on the other hand, are put into a Coinjoin transaction. So if you receive these untraceable to the desired address Coins back, it comes directly from a Coinjoin transaction. The process can sometimes be delayed if the Transfer Delay is set too low.

Both options provide the same level of anonymity. It is only the processing speed that differs between the two methods. Generally, it is recommended to set a higher transfer delay for larger sums.

2.2 FEES

Subject to the other provisions of these Terms, including, but not limited to Section 3 on Prohibited Activities, You may freely access and use the Website Service with a randomly generated charge or fee of 1-3% imposed on You by the Service Provider. The Service Provider does not charge You transaction fees for normal Bitcoin transactions, however You are still subject to transaction fees, charged by the Bitcoin network.

BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS PURSUANT TO SECTION 1.1 YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT OUR COORDINATOR AUTOMATICALLY DEDUCTS THE TRANSACTION FEES FROM THE TRANSACTION YOU SUBMITTED FOR THE SERVICES IN LINE WITH THE PREVIOUS PARAGRAPHS.

The Service Provider reserves the right to charge additional fees or to change the amount of fees, and we will provide You at least 14 days advance notice of any such change. The Service Provider reserves the right to waive and/or reduce any fee at any time, with or without notice.
