Gatu - Terms of Use

Last Updated: July 20, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Gatu website-hosted trading interface available at https://app.gatu.ai, together with the related features, software, and services that Gatu makes available through that interface (collectively, the "Interface"). These Terms form an agreement between you and Gatu Corp. ("Gatu," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our").

Please read these Terms carefully. By visiting or using the Interface, creating or accessing an embedded wallet, connecting a wallet, accepting an in-product notice, or submitting a transaction through the Interface, you confirm that you understand and agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Interface.

1. The Interface

1.1. Independent Access Software

The Interface is software that helps users view public blockchain information and prepare, sign, and transmit instructions to Hyperliquid and other supported blockchain systems. It is only one way to interact with those systems. Gatu is an independent interface provider and is not Hyperliquid Corp., the Hyper Foundation, a validator, or a third-party market deployer.

1.2. Protocol Operations

Orders, transfers, deposits, withdrawals, liquidations, and other transactions are processed by the relevant blockchain, protocol, smart contract, validator set, bridge, or third-party service. Gatu does not control consensus, block production, order matching, settlement, protocol governance, market parameters, oracle values, or the continued operation of any supported network. We cannot cancel, reverse, or amend a transaction after it has been accepted by the relevant system.

1.3. No Brokerage, Exchange, or Custody Service

Gatu does not act as your broker, dealer, investment adviser, clearing agency, exchange, bank, money transmitter, fiduciary, or custodian merely because you use the Interface. Gatu is not a counterparty to transactions entered through the Interface and does not guarantee execution, settlement, liquidity, best price, or best execution.

1.4. Third-Party and Permissionless Markets

The Interface may display markets created under permissionless deployment mechanisms, including HIP-3 builder-deployed perpetual markets. Such markets are operated or configured by independent deployers. Their inclusion may be based on public metadata, onchain activity, technical compatibility, or other neutral criteria. Unless expressly stated otherwise, Gatu has not audited, approved, endorsed, or verified a market, deployer, token, oracle, or related documentation. You must independently evaluate each market before trading.

1.5. Wallets and Signing Methods

The Interface may support external wallets and wallets made available through embedded, smart-wallet, account-abstraction, or other third-party wallet technology. It may also use locally controlled Agent or API Wallet credentials to authorize supported trading actions after the relevant master wallet has approved that authorization.

Wallet providers, key-management providers, paymasters, and signing services are third parties and may impose separate terms. You are responsible for protecting every device, credential, recovery method, wallet, session, and signing authorization associated with your use of the Interface. Gatu does not receive your seed phrase through ordinary use and cannot guarantee that a lost wallet, credential, local Agent key, or asset can be recovered. Disconnecting a wallet from the Interface does not necessarily revoke authorizations that exist onchain or within a third-party service.

1.6. Third-Party Services

The Interface depends on or may link to third-party software and services, including wallet providers, RPC services, bridges, paymasters, indexers, data providers, charting software, oracles, cloud infrastructure, and block explorers. Their services may be unavailable, delayed, inaccurate, compromised, or changed without notice. Your use of them may be governed by separate agreements. Gatu is not responsible for third-party services or content.

1.7. Regulatory Status

Neither availability of the Interface nor display of a market means that the Interface, the underlying protocol, or that market has been licensed, registered, authorized, or approved by any governmental or regulatory authority. You must not interpret technical access as a statement that your activity is lawful in your jurisdiction.

2. Eligibility and Access Restrictions

2.1. Age, Capacity, and Authority

You may use the Interface only if you have reached the age of legal majority where you live, can enter into a binding agreement, and are legally permitted to use the Interface. If you act for an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind it to these Terms.

2.2. Restricted Persons

The Interface is not intended for, and may not be used by, a "Restricted Person." A Restricted Person includes:

  • a person or entity residing, located, incorporated, registered, or principally operating in the United States of America, the People's Republic of China, or the Province of Ontario, Canada;
  • a person or entity in a jurisdiction subject to comprehensive sanctions, embargoes, or export restrictions administered by the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, United Nations, or another authority applicable to Gatu, including Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Myanmar, Donetsk, and Luhansk;
  • a citizen of a comprehensively restricted territory where applicable restrictions follow that person regardless of current location;
  • a person or entity named on, owned by, or controlled by a person on an applicable sanctions or restricted-party list; or
  • a person or entity in another location that Gatu identifies as restricted because access would be unlawful, would require an authorization that has not been obtained, or would expose Gatu or another service provider to unacceptable legal or compliance risk.

2.3. No Evasion

You must not use a virtual private network, proxy, anonymization service, false information, or another method to hide your location or identity, bypass a technical restriction, or provide access to a Restricted Person. We may use technical or operational controls to restrict access, but those controls do not replace your responsibility to comply with these Terms and applicable law.

2.4. Your Legal Compliance

You are solely responsible for determining whether your use of the Interface and every related transaction is permitted where you are located and under laws applicable to you. This includes laws concerning digital assets, spot trading, derivatives, leverage, commodities, securities, payments, taxes, sanctions, anti-money-laundering obligations, and consumer protection.

2.5. Lawful Assets and Activity

You represent that assets used through the Interface were lawfully obtained and are under your lawful control. You must not use the Interface for or on behalf of another person in a way that violates law, these Terms, or a restriction applicable to that person.

3. No Warranties and Assumption of Risk

3.1. As-Is Availability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Interface is supplied "as is" and "as available." Gatu disclaims express, implied, and statutory warranties, including warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, security, availability, and uninterrupted operation. We do not promise that defects will be corrected or that displayed information will always be complete, current, or free from error.

3.2. Trading and Market Risk

Digital assets and onchain markets can be volatile, illiquid, manipulated, or unavailable. Prices may change quickly. Leverage can magnify losses, and a position may be partially or fully liquidated with little or no warning. Funding payments, margin requirements, market parameters, and available collateral can change. You may lose the full amount committed to a transaction or more where applicable law and protocol rules permit.

3.3. Technical and Protocol Risk

You accept risks arising from smart-contract bugs, protocol changes, validator failures, network congestion, chain reorganizations, forks, oracle errors, bridge failures, RPC or API outages, stale or inconsistent data, wallet defects, paymaster failures, signature errors, malware, phishing, compromised devices, cyberattacks, and unauthorized access. A displayed balance, price, liquidation estimate, transaction status, chart, or order-book value may be delayed or differ from authoritative onchain state.

3.4. Bridge, Deposit, and Withdrawal Risk

Deposits, withdrawals, and cross-chain transfers may involve smart contracts, third-party bridges, token approvals, destination-chain finality, minimum amounts, fees, and processing delays. A transaction shown as submitted or confirmed on one network may not yet be credited by another system. Sending an unsupported token, using the wrong network or address, or failing to satisfy a protocol minimum can result in permanent loss.

3.5. Wallet and Authorization Risk

Embedded wallets, smart wallets, Agent wallets, session keys, and account-abstraction features can improve usability but introduce additional software, authorization, recovery, and dependency risks. Gas sponsorship or paymaster support may be limited, refused, or discontinued. You must verify transaction details and maintain control of the master wallet and recovery methods associated with your account.

3.6. Permissionless Market Risk

Third-party deployed markets may have limited liquidity, incomplete or inaccurate documentation, concentrated control, unusual oracle or settlement design, higher volatility, or a greater risk of liquidation and discontinuation. A disclaimer, category label, deployer link, or other notice does not constitute due diligence or endorsement by Gatu.

3.7. Regulatory and Tax Risk

Laws, regulatory interpretations, and enforcement practices can change and may affect the availability, legality, treatment, or value of a transaction or asset. You are responsible for obtaining advice and for calculating, reporting, and paying all taxes, duties, or other government charges arising from your activity.

4. Prohibited Activities

You must not engage in, attempt, encourage, or assist any of the following in connection with the Interface:

  • Intellectual-property infringement: violating copyright, trademark, patent, privacy, publicity, or other proprietary rights;
  • Security attacks: introducing malicious code, phishing, disrupting systems, defeating security controls, obtaining unauthorized access, or causing a denial of service;
  • Fraud or impersonation: supplying deceptive information, impersonating another person, misappropriating assets, or using stolen credentials or funds;
  • Market abuse: wash trading, spoofing, manipulation, deceptive coordination, misuse of confidential or material non-public information, or another unlawful trading practice;
  • Restriction evasion: concealing location or identity, bypassing access controls, or acting for a Restricted Person;
  • Financial crime: money laundering, terrorism or proliferation financing, sanctions violations, or another unlawful transfer or use of value;
  • Exploitation: abusing an error, vulnerability, liquidation mechanism, oracle, bridge, reward program, or unintended system behavior;
  • Abusive automation: using bots, scripts, scraping, or high-frequency requests in a way that violates published limits, degrades the Interface, or interferes with other users;
  • Unlawful content or conduct: using the Interface in a way that violates an applicable law, court order, regulation, or legally enforceable right; or
  • Facilitation: providing tools, accounts, funds, instructions, or services intended to help another person perform any prohibited activity.

We may restrict Interface access, preserve relevant records, or cooperate with lawful requests when we reasonably believe prohibited activity has occurred. This does not imply that Gatu monitors or controls all onchain activity.

5. No Professional Advice

5.1. Informational Content

Charts, prices, balances, risk indicators, documentation, market labels, and other content provided through the Interface are for general information and transaction preparation. They are not investment, financial, legal, tax, accounting, technical, or operational advice, and they are not a recommendation to enter, hold, or exit a position.

5.2. Independent Verification

Information may be incomplete, delayed, or incorrect. You must verify relevant information, including wallet addresses, network, asset, amount, order terms, fees, margin, liquidation price, and transaction status, before acting. Consult appropriately qualified independent professionals when necessary.

5.3. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship

Use of the Interface does not create an advisory, agency, partnership, fiduciary, or client relationship between you and Gatu. Gatu has no duty to monitor your positions, warn you of a market event, update information, or determine whether a transaction is suitable for you.

6. Fees and Transactions

6.1. Applicable Fees

Use of the Interface may result in builder fees or other Interface-related fees disclosed in the transaction flow. You may also incur protocol fees, trading fees, funding payments, gas, bridge fees, wallet-provider charges, or other third-party costs. Fees and fee sponsorship can change. You are responsible for reviewing and paying all applicable amounts.

6.2. Transaction Instructions

You are responsible for all instructions signed by or submitted through your wallet, embedded wallet, smart wallet, approved Agent wallet, or active session. Gatu may display an estimate or preview, but the signed payload and authoritative onchain or protocol state control. Network conditions, slippage, partial fills, rejected orders, and intervening state changes can cause the final result to differ from an estimate.

6.3. Irreversibility and Recovery

Transactions accepted by a blockchain or decentralized protocol are generally irreversible. Gatu does not have unilateral authority to retrieve assets, reverse fills, restore a wallet, change a liquidation, or resolve a dispute between protocol participants.

7. Interface Availability and Third-Party Dependencies

7.1. No Uptime Commitment

The Interface may be slow, unavailable, inaccurate, or interrupted because of maintenance, software defects, heavy traffic, device limitations, internet failure, blockchain events, third-party outages, security incidents, or circumstances outside Gatu's control. We do not promise continuous operation or preservation of local settings, cached data, chart layouts, or locally stored Agent credentials.

7.2. Suspension and Access Controls

We may limit, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the Interface, a feature, a market display, or access from a location when reasonably necessary for security, maintenance, legal compliance, third-party requirements, or protection of users and systems. Such action does not alter transactions already submitted to an underlying protocol.

7.3. Third-Party Links and Materials

Links to deployer documentation, explorers, support resources, or other websites are provided for convenience. Gatu does not control their contents and does not guarantee their accuracy, legality, security, or continued availability. Accessing a third-party resource is at your own risk.

8. Programs and Promotions

Gatu may offer promotions, rewards, referrals, competitions, testing programs, or other optional initiatives (each, a "Program"). A Program may have additional eligibility rules and terms. Those additional terms govern the Program if they conflict with these Terms.

We may change, pause, or end a Program, correct an error, disqualify ineligible activity, or cancel a benefit as permitted by law. Unless expressly stated otherwise, a Program benefit has no cash value, is not guaranteed, may depend on third-party or onchain conditions, and may be unavailable in some jurisdictions.

9. Changes to the Interface and These Terms

We may update, replace, add, or remove Interface functionality, supported integrations, policies, and these Terms. Revised Terms take effect when posted unless a later date is stated. The "Last Updated" date identifies the latest revision. Your continued use after an effective revision constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not accept a revision, stop using the Interface.

10. Intellectual Property and Feedback

Gatu and its licensors retain their rights in the Interface, software, branding, and original content. Subject to these Terms, Gatu grants you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable right to use the Interface for its intended purpose.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, license, or reverse engineer protected portions of the Interface except where applicable law or an applicable open-source license expressly permits it. Open-source components remain subject to their respective licenses. Hyperliquid, wallet-provider, deployer, token, and third-party names and marks belong to their respective owners.

If you provide feedback, you grant Gatu a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free right to use it without restriction or compensation. Send intellectual-property notices to support@gatu.ai.

11. Release and Indemnity

11.1. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you assume the risks connected with the Interface and release Gatu and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and service providers from claims arising from your voluntary interaction with supported blockchains, protocols, wallets, markets, deployers, and third-party services, except to the extent a claim cannot lawfully be released.

11.2. Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Gatu and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, and subsidiaries from claims, proceedings, damages, losses, liabilities, penalties, and reasonable legal costs resulting from:

  • your use or misuse of the Interface;
  • a transaction or instruction submitted through a device, wallet, credential, or session under your control;
  • your breach of these Terms or violation of another person's rights;
  • prohibited or unlawful activity by you; or
  • a false or misleading statement made by you in connection with the Interface.

You must reasonably cooperate in the defense of an indemnified matter. Gatu may control the defense or settlement of such a matter, and you may not settle it in a way that imposes an obligation on an indemnified party without Gatu's prior written approval.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Gatu and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, and licensors will not be liable for lost profits, lost data, lost opportunity, loss of digital assets, trading loss, liquidation, business interruption, or any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, consequential, or exemplary damages arising from or related to the Interface, even if the possibility of such damages was known.

Without limiting the preceding paragraph, Gatu is not responsible for losses caused by incorrect or delayed data, user error, wallet compromise, unauthorized signatures, blockchain or validator failure, protocol or smart-contract defects, oracle or bridge failure, third-party conduct, regulatory action, or suspension of a feature.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the total aggregate liability of Gatu and the other parties identified above for all claims relating to the Interface will not exceed US$100. Some jurisdictions do not permit particular warranty exclusions or liability limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you.

13. Arbitration and Class-Action Waiver

13.1. Informal Resolution

Before starting a formal dispute, you must send written notice to support@gatu.ai describing your name and contact information, the facts and basis of the dispute, and the relief requested. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the matter for 30 days after receipt.

13.2. Individual Arbitration

Except for a matter that must be heard in an eligible small-claims court, you and Gatu agree that a dispute arising from these Terms or the Interface will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court. Arbitration must proceed only on an individual basis. You and Gatu waive participation in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action to the extent that waiver is permitted by law.

13.3. Governing Law and Procedure

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, without applying conflict-of-law principles. An unresolved dispute will be finally determined under the rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA) by one arbitrator, in English, with the seat of arbitration in London, United Kingdom. Each party will bear its own costs unless the arbitrator determines otherwise. Neither party may commence a dispute in a court located in the United States, except where applicable law does not permit that restriction.

13.4. Equitable Relief

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking urgent injunctive or equitable relief to protect intellectual property, confidential information, system security, or to stop prohibited activity where such relief is legally available.

14. Miscellaneous

14.1. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how Gatu handles personal data and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

14.2. Entire Agreement

These Terms and any additional terms expressly incorporated into them are the entire agreement between you and Gatu concerning the Interface and supersede prior discussions or agreements about the same subject.

14.3. Assignment

You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without Gatu's prior written consent. Gatu may transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, in connection with a reorganization, financing, merger, sale, or transfer of the Interface or related business.

14.4. Severability

If a provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent needed to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

14.5. No Waiver

A failure or delay in enforcing a provision is not a waiver. A waiver is effective only for the specific instance in which it is given.

14.6. Notices

Gatu may provide notices through the Interface, by email where available, or through other reasonable public communication channels. A notice posted through the Interface is effective when posted. Legal notices to Gatu may be sent to support@gatu.ai.

14.7. Headings

Section headings are for convenience and do not affect interpretation.
