Terms of Service – App

Dedaub’s Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) are a legal agreement between You as the Client and Dedaub Ltd. (“Dedaub”, “We”, “Us” and “Our”), a private limited liability company registered under the Laws of Malta with company number C99606. By using our services, you agree to be bound by these terms of service and all terms incorporated by reference.

Dedaub provides a subscription software (the “Service“) over supported EVM-based blockchain protocols. The Service combines static application security testing (SAST), theorem proving techniques, realtime blockchain monitoring, and fuzzing.

Prior to giving You access to some features of the Service, Dedaub may ask You for cryptographic proof that You are a member of a Protocol’s development team, and that your Protocol (the “Protocol”) is not an unmodified fork of another well-known Protocol.

The security analyses provided through the Service are designed to find security weaknesses in Smart Contracts. Some of these analyses may detect potential for malicious use of the contracts, for instance, potential cryptoeconomic weaknesses (e.g., price manipulation or forced unprofitable exchanges). The Service, however, does not ensure the correctness of the business logic.

There are important terms provided below including your indemnification responsibilities, our limitation of liability and warranty disclaimers, and your agreement to arbitrate disputes. Please take the time to read these terms of service carefully. You can always contact Us at legal@dedaub.com if you have any questions.
