4. Service Availability and Downtime

4.1. Downtime Due to Service Providers

Inowattio relies on third-party service providers for hosting, blockchain integration, and infrastructure. In the event of downtime or outages caused by these third parties, Inowattio is not responsible for any resulting financial losses, missed energy trades, or delayed services.

4.2. Energy Balancing Event Cancellation

In case of technical issues, active energy balancing events will be canceled. Inowattio will notify the energy market about the cancellations and will not be held liable for any losses due to canceled bids or energy transactions. SC INOWATTIO SRL will handle all regulatory obligations in such instances.

4.3. Regulatory Responsibilities

In the event of system failures or downtime, SC INOWATTIO SRL will ensure all regulatory obligations are met, and necessary cancellations or adjustments are made in compliance with market regulations.

5. INO Tokens, Payments, and Wallets

5.1. INO Tokens as Sole Payment Method

All transactions on the Inowattio platform, including services and energy trading, are conducted exclusively using INO Tokens. These tokens are utility tokens within the platform and can be purchased at a stable price directly from the Inowattio website. The price of INO Tokens within the platform remains fixed and stable, unaffected by external market fluctuations. INO Tokens are utility tokens and not considered an investment or security. Inowattio does not provide any security-like responsibilities for these tokens.

5.2. VAT and Surcharges on INO Token Purchases

The price of INO Tokens includes VAT taxes and any surcharges that may be imposed by third-party payment providers. The final price paid by users for tokens may reflect these additional charges, depending on the payment method used.

5.3. Managed Wallets and ERC-4337 Compliance

Inowattio offers managed wallets for users, utilizing ERC-4337 Ethereum smart contracts for secure and programmable transactions. By using the platform, you agree that Inowattio manages these wallets on your behalf, ensuring secure internal transfers and interactions.

5.4. Token Rewards and Fiat Conversion

Users are rewarded with INO Tokens for participating in energy trading, completing tasks, and contributing to energy balancing events. When Inowattio receives rewards from energy markets, users can convert their INO Tokens to fiat currency, subject to platform availability. Fiat conversions are processed at a stable rate, in line with the platform’s token pricing model.

5.5. Public and Private Blockchain Integration

Inowattio operates a private blockchain for internal transactions, allowing users to track and verify energy flows and assignments through the Blockscout Explorer. The INO Token also has a public version on the Ethereum blockchain for external trading and transfer. While INO Tokens can be traded externally, Inowattio is not responsible for any price fluctuations or market conditions outside of the platform. The INO Token remains stable within the platform for internal transactions but may experience price volatility on external exchanges. Users trade externally at their own risk.
