The Services include tokenized securities and blockchain-based infrastructure, which pose significant risks to you and your assets. This document contains important information about those risks and your rights and obligations. Please read it carefully before using the platform. By accessing or using the Website or Services, you accept and agree to be legally bound by these Terms.

1. Acceptance of Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms," "Agreement") are entered into by and between you ("you," "User") and Portera Group Inc. ("Portera," "we," "our," "us"). These Terms govern your access to and use of portera.finance and its sub-pages, sub-domains, and integrations (collectively, the "Website"), as well as your access to, holding, and use of any tokenized securities or other instruments issued or made available through Portera, and any products or services of or affiliated with Portera.

You must read these Terms carefully before using the Services. By accessing or using the Services, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and all documents incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree, you must not access the Website or use the Services.

2. Description of Services

Portera's services (the "Services") include the Website, any smart contracts or on-chain infrastructure used to issue, transfer, or manage tokenized securities (the "Protocol"), and all related tools, documentation, features, functionality, tokens, and products. The Services support the tokenization of private equity and pre-IPO securities and provide qualified investors with access to such instruments through on-chain, compliant infrastructure.

Portera and its affiliates cannot control, modify, prevent, or reverse interactions or transactions after they are submitted to the Protocol or an underlying blockchain network. The Website is not the sole method of interacting with the Protocol. You are expected to be familiar with the Protocol and its associated risks before accessing it.

Your full use of the Services may require you to pay transaction fees imposed by underlying blockchain networks ("Network Fees"). These fees are not levied by Portera, are determined by the relevant blockchain's rules, and are beyond Portera's control. Portera is not responsible for the payment, refund, or any other aspect of Network Fees.

3. Eligibility

The Website and Services are available only to users who:

  • Are at least eighteen (18) years of age, or the legal age to form a binding contract in their applicable jurisdiction, whichever is higher.
  • Qualify as "qualified investors," "accredited investors," or the equivalent under the laws of their applicable jurisdiction, where such qualification is required to access the relevant investment opportunities.

6. Tokenized Securities

Portera facilitates the tokenization of private equity fund interests and pre-IPO shares into on-chain instruments ("Tokenized Securities"). The following applies to all Tokenized Securities available through the Services:

  • Tokenized Securities represent economic interests and are subject to the terms of their respective offering documents, which govern the specific rights, restrictions, fees, and conditions applicable to each instrument.
  • Tokenized Securities confer only those rights expressly stated in the applicable offering documents. Unless explicitly stated therein, they do not confer voting rights, dividend entitlements, or direct ownership of the underlying assets.
  • Transfers of Tokenized Securities are subject to applicable law, lock-up periods, and on-chain compliance controls that enforce investor eligibility and transfer restrictions at the protocol level.
  • Secondary market liquidity is not guaranteed and may be limited or unavailable.
  • The value of Tokenized Securities may fluctuate significantly and may fall to zero. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
  • For legal, security, or operational reasons, token parameters may be amended, tokens may be paused, frozen, transferred, or migrated, and wallet addresses may be added to or removed from transfer allowlists.
  • Any redemption or exit mechanism, if available, is subject to the terms of the applicable offering document and commercially reasonable efforts to realize value from the underlying assets.

The sole basis for any investment decision should be the final offering document(s) for the relevant instrument, which contain the full objectives, terms, risks, and expenses. All information on this Website is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security.

  • Smart contracts may contain bugs or vulnerabilities that could result in loss of assets.
  • The speed and cost of blockchain transactions are variable and outside Portera's control.
  • Blockchain networks may be subject to forks, consensus failures, or other disruptions.
  • The regulatory regime applicable to blockchain technology and tokenized securities is uncertain and evolving. New laws or regulations may adversely affect the value or utility of the Services or any Tokenized Securities.
  • The tax treatment of transactions involving digital assets and tokenized securities is uncertain in many jurisdictions. You are encouraged to seek qualified tax advice before using the Services.

You agree to assume full responsibility for all risks associated with accessing and using the Website and the Services, and you expressly waive and release Portera from any and all liability, claims, or damages arising from your use of the Services or your interaction with any underlying blockchain technology.
