Should the need arise for an investment to be returned the return will be done either via the same medium (ether/bank transfer) or through a medium of the choice of the investor; however, the investor will need to proof beyond reasonable doubt that the investment was done. The Project through the Representative may issue special rules governing that identification as separate Schedule to these Terms and Conditions.
Right to refuse or cancel purchase
The Project through the Representative may refuse or cancel a purchase in any case. In those circumstances the medium of exchange is returned to the Investor.

Scope of the Agreement
This Part of the Agreement concerns the purchase, use, sell and conversion of (Green) Deriveum tokens.

Sale of the Tokens
The users may sell or transfer to other users their unpledged tokens only to other authorized users. Tokens that are pledged may be sold and/or transferred only after the contract on them has expired or was duly terminated.
Transparency
Users will identify themselves with valid, government issued e-signature (digital signature) in all transactions they may undertake with Deriveum. The Project has the right and obligation to check the validity of the above mentioned e-signature each and every time a transaction is undertaken. The Project may not validate the e-signature if it is not valid (including technical problems experienced by the signature’s authority), or it is obliged by the law, court order or extreme emergency brought to the attention of the Project or its Representative by authorized public body.

Changes to the Agreement
The Project may change this Agreement unilaterally. The changes will not affect the rights of the users, who have already purchased tokens.
