5. Service Overview

Aelith Pay provides tools to create payment links, invoices, checkouts, and APIs that facilitate digital asset and stablecoin payments. We do not control the underlying blockchain networks and cannot guarantee transaction confirmation times, network availability, or exchange rates.

You acknowledge that blockchain transactions are typically irreversible. You are responsible for verifying wallet addresses, amounts, and transaction details before initiating or accepting a payment.

6. Compliance, Sanctions, and Risk Controls

We conduct sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, and other compliance checks as required or deemed necessary. You authorize us and our service providers to collect and use information for these purposes, including sharing data with compliance vendors and government authorities where required by law.

We may refuse, suspend, or terminate access to the Service if we determine that your activity violates law, sanctions, or these Terms, or presents a risk to Aelith or other users.

7. Fees, Taxes, and Billing

Fees for the Service are described in the pricing page or within the Service. You authorize us to charge applicable fees, including subscription fees and transaction fees, according to your selected plan. Taxes may apply and are your responsibility unless otherwise stated.

Paid plans renew automatically unless you cancel. You may cancel at any time, and cancellation will take effect at the end of your current billing period. Except where required by law, fees are non-refundable.

We may update fees or plans with reasonable advance notice. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated pricing.

8. Wallets, Keys, and Blockchain Risks

You are solely responsible for the security of your wallets, private keys, and recovery phrases. Aelith does not custody your digital assets. Loss of keys may result in permanent loss of assets, and Aelith is not responsible for such loss.
