These Terms and Conditions set out important information regarding your rights and obligations in connection with Waka Community Foundation and the Waka International App. In particular, we draw your attention to:
• The eligibility criteria and the volumes of verified movement required to generate ‘Wakacoins’.
Earning Wakacoins
“Wakacoins” are units of exchange that users of the Waka International App may generate through verified steps only. Wakacoins may be used to get certain benefits that are offered via the Waka International App. Wakacoins cannot be redeemed for cash from Waka Community Foundation or any of its affiliates, unless we expressly agree otherwise with you in writing signed by the Board of Trustees.
We reserve the right to destroy any and all Wakacoins that we have reason to believe have not been created by verified physical human movement and to suspend or disable any Wakacoin Account used in such a way.
We reserve the right to destroy or redistribute Wakacoins that we have reason to believe have been obtained through fraudulent or spurious means, for instance by defrauding another Wakacoin user, by use of non-human intervention etc and to suspend or disable any Wakacoin Account used in such a way.
We reserve the right and retain the absolute discretion to determine and alter, from time to time, the eligible forms of movement, movement verification algorithms and amounts of verified movement that must be undertaken by users in order to generate Wakacoins using the App (for example, we may alter the minimum number of verified steps required to generate a Wakacoin).
Details of current eligibility criteria and the number of human steps required to generate Wakacoins are provided within the App.
Movement verification conducted by the App is considered final and cannot be revised or reversed or appealed.
We may cap the maximum amount of Wakacoins that users of the App may generate each day using the App. The applicable cap may vary depending upon the membership level of the relevant user or other criteria that we chose to apply and we may increase or decrease such caps from time to time without prior notice.
