6. Retraction and Cancellation
Consumers in general have fourteen days to withdraw from any contract but as the product has a digital nature that is sold on an open market – the conclusion of the contract will immediately mark the beginning of its execution.
As the smart contracts of all ConsciousEye artworks run on the Ethereum network, there is no ability to undo, reverse, or restore any transactions.
7. Assumption of Risk
The Buyer understands that the NFT is a crypto asset, which can rapidly fluctuate in value, demand, regulation, and other variables.
The Buyer understands and accepts that these variables might arise in irreversible losses or be recorded on the public blockchain ledger later than when the transaction occurred.
As the Seller has no control over the execution of the purchase, any fees, or reversal of the transaction when using a third-party marketplace, the Seller is not liable to the Buyer or any other third parties for damages or other claims arising from the purchase.
The Buyer also acknowledges the risk of internet-based assets and that malfunctioning hardware, software, and internet connections can lead to loss of the NFT. The Buyer will not hold responsible the Seller for any loss of the NFT dues to disruptors, hardware failures, hackings, errors, communication failure, inaccuracies, or other delays the Buyer experiences while completing the transaction.
Furthermore, as digital assets, NFTs are subject to developing regulations, statues, treaties, rules and other laws (“Laws”) in Germany, Europe and globally.
Any update, change, or adjustment of these Laws may affect this Agreement. Should these Laws cause any part of this Agreement to become unenforceable or illegal, then the Seller is not deemed to be in breach of this Agreement and has the right to terminate the Agreement instead.
The NFT is not deemed or intended to be a security under any law, and the Buyer understands that the price and liquidity of this digital asset will fluctuate and may even disappear as the market for this NFT does.

8.3. The NFT is a digital asset and only exists because its code and ownership record are being maintained in the applicable blockchain network or ledger. As such, any sale, transfer, donation, or assignation occurs on a public blockchain’s distributed ledger, over which the Seller has no control or liability.
The Buyer will be fully responsible for verifying the authenticity, identity, and legitimacy of the assets they purchase.
