15. Conflict of Interest

Actual, potential, and perceived conflicts of interest exist in almost all human interactions. Our relationship with you is no different. We understand our responsibility to identify material conflicts of interest which would be expected to arise between Buydoge.com (including each individual, acting on their behalf) and our clients.

We are susceptible to conflicts of interest since we may regularly represent both sides to a transaction, namely, the buyer and the seller. The general types of conflicts of interest which can arise are:

Conflicts of interest between you and us,
Conflicts of interest between you and our other clients, and
Conflicts of interest between us and our related and associated companies.

As a Digital Assets broker, we are a Digital Assets intermediary – we are the party on the other side of the transaction (referred to as a “principal” trade) where we own the Digital Assets we sell to you.

Management of Conflicts of Interest
In general, we deal with and manage relevant conflicts as follows:

Avoidance: This includes avoiding conflicts that are prohibited by law as well as conflicts that cannot effectively be addressed.

Control: We manage acceptable conflicts through means such as physically separating different business functions and restricting the internal exchange of information.

Disclosure: By providing you with information about conflicts, you are able to assess independently their significance when evaluating our recommendations and any actions we take.

Our goal is to address conflicts in a fair, equitable and transparent manner, consistent with the best interest of our users. We will try to avoid conflict where possible, and in all other cases either disclose the conflict, or manage it through internal controls and review processes. Conflicts deemed too significant to be addressed through controls or disclosures must be avoided. Disclosures will be made in a timely, meaningful and prominent manner.

Possible conflicts and how they are managed
The following information is intended to assist you in understanding and assessing material potential and actual conflicts of interest, including how we address them.

When an individual registrant sits on a board of directors of a charity or undertakes other community activities in any substantive way, they are subject to regulatory guidance on the disclosure and approval of the outside business activities.

The information and examples contained herein have been compiled to the best of our ability and are not meant to be exhaustive of all possible conflicts of interest but rather a compilation of those conflicts that have been identified to date. We undertake to continue taking the necessary steps to identify and respond to such situations in a fair, equitable and transparent manner and consistent with the best interests of our clients.

16. Risk

Volatility RiskThe market prices of Digital Assets can be volatile. On any given day the market price of an investment may increase or decrease, sometimes materially. The time duration of such increases and decreases can last for an extended period of time.

17. Forks

ForksA fork is a rule change such that the software validating according to the old rules will see the blocks produced according to the new rules as invalid. In case of a fork, all nodes meant to work in accordance with the new rules need to upgrade their software and will no longer be compatible with old rules. This may impact the value, functionality, and other characteristics, such as the name of the Digital Assets. We are not responsible for any consequences arising from a fork, including any perceived, or actual, losses or missed gains. It is in our sole discretion to decide whether or not to support the cryptocurrencies subject to a fork or whether or not to distribute the forked Digital Assets to our users, with or without prior notification. By using Buydoge.com you forfeit any profit, loss or voting right claims to any cryptocurrencies forked on the platform.
