You also acknowledge and accept:

Digital Asset Transactions cannot be reversed once they have been broadcasted to the relevant network facilitating the mining of such Supported Digital Asset (the “Supported Network”).

• Supported Digital Assets associated with Digital Asset Transactions that are in a pending state will be designated accordingly, and will not be displayed in your MX Wallet balance or the User Account or be available for the User to conduct subsequent Digital Asset Transactions until the relevant transaction is verified by the Supported Network.

• MX Global may refuse to process or may cancel any pending Digital Asset Transaction for any reason at its sole discretion (including but not limited to there being insufficient Fiat or Supported Digital Asset in the User Account to settle the relevant transaction at the time of such instruction) or as required by applicable laws or any court or other regulatory authority to which MX Global is subject.

• In submitting Digital Asset Transactions, the User may not be trading directly with MX Global, but may trade with other Users. For clarity, MX Global may not be the counterparty in such Digital Asset Transactions.

• MX Global reserves the right to reject or cancel instructions made and/or pending during system downtime. Certain deposit or withdrawal requests may not be processed outside of normal banking hours in Malaysia.

• A User may request to cancel or amend its instructions but MX Global is not obliged to accept any such request. Instructions may be cancelled or amended only before execution, and such User agrees that MX Global shall incur no liability in connection therewith.

For example, your MX Wallet will be credited with ETH when it is sent to an ETH receive address generated through your MX Wallet.

9.5 Funds received in error.

In the event you know, suspect, or should reasonably know or suspect, that any fiat or digital asset has been credited to your MX Wallet (or to any bank account) in error, you must immediately notify MX Global of the error by submitting a ticket through the Support Page in our website.

You accept and agree that you have no claim or entitlement to any fiat or digital asset received in error, and must immediately return such funds in accordance with the instructions received from MX Global.

10. DEPOSITS

10.1 Where your identity has been verified (in accordance with the Identity Verification requirements), you may deposit fiat into your MX Wallet by depositing funds into a MX Exchange bank account, held with a Malaysia bank (a “Deposit”).

Details of the MX Global bank account into which you must make the Deposit will be provided to you by MX Global, and any such bank account will be held and operated by MX Global.

As part of our deposit requirements, you must strictly adhere to the following Deposit requirements (the “Deposit Requirements”):

• you can only make a Deposit from a bank account in Malaysia via bank transfer held in your own name. You must not allow any third party to make a Deposit into your MX Wallet; and

• you must not use any other methods other than specified above (the “Rejected Deposit”). MX Exchange reserves the right to refuse any Rejected Deposit.

10.2 Allocation of deposits.

When you request to make a Deposit through your MX Wallet in our website, you are required to upload proof of bank deposit (the “Deposit Proof”). To permit timely and successful allocation of a Deposit to your MX Wallet, you must ensure the Deposit Proof is uploaded correctly and successfully with clear information on the amount, date and time of deposit.

MX Global will not be responsible for any delay in or non-allocation of Deposits to your MX Wallet where you fail to correctly and successfully upload the Deposit Proof.

Deposits may take time to reflect in your MX Wallet due to bank processing times, operational processes, and/or failure by you to adhere to the Deposit Requirements. Under no circumstances will MX Global have any liability to you in relation to any delay in or failure of a Deposit reflecting in your MX Wallet.

MX Exchange will make all reasonable efforts to allocate Deposits that do not meet the Deposit Requirements by transferring the Rejected Deposits to your registered bank account or originating bank account after deducting all the relevant charges. However, any Deposits less than the withdrawal fee shall not be returned.

• MX Global is not acting as your broker, intermediary, agent, adviser or in any fiduciary capacity and no information or communication provided to you by MX Global in relation to an Instant Buy or Sell transaction will constitute advice;

• when you place an order to buy or sell Supported Digital Asset, we will provide you with a quoted exchange rate.

The quoted exchange rate may differ from rates seen elsewhere on the MX Exchange site, or on external sources, and you acknowledge that the quoted exchange rate is the rate that will apply to your order;

• By proceeding with your Instant Buy or Sell transaction, you confirm that you accept the quoted exchange rate, including its components;

MX Exchange reserves the right to delay or refuse any Instant Buy or Sell transaction if, in our sole discretion, we perceive there to be a risk of fraud or illegal activity, or where we have reasonable grounds on which to suspect an error may have been made. MX Exchange shall have no liability to you in connection with any delay in or non-completion of an Instant Buy or Sell transaction.

• maintaining adequate security and control over your MX Account sign-in details, including but not limited to any passwords, API keys, or any other codes associated with your MX Account;

• enabling any additional security features available to you, including the activation of two factor authentication on your MX account;

• keeping your contact details up to date so that you can receive any notices or alerts we may send to you in relation to security (see Electronic Communications;

• maintaining security and control over the email mailbox, phone number and two-factor authentication applications or devices associated with your MX Account.

Failure to take the above measures, and any other security measures available to you, may result in unauthorised access to your MX Account and the loss or theft of any digital asset and/or Fiat balances held in your MX Wallet or any linked bank account(s). MX Global shall have no liability to you for or in connection with any unauthorised access to your MX Account, where such unauthorised access was due to no fault of MX Global, and/or any failure by you to act upon any notice or alert that we send to you.

The security of your MX Account may be compromised, or interruption caused to it, by phishing, spoofing or other attack, computer viruses, spyware, scareware, Trojan horses, worms or other malware that may affect your computer or other equipment. MX Globalstrongly recommends that you regularly use reputable virus screening and prevention software and remain alert to the fact that SMS, email services and search engines are vulnerable to spoofing and phishing attacks. You should immediately notify MX Global about any unusual, suspicious, unclear or abnormal changes in relation to your MX Account, or any unauthorized use of your MX Account, or any security breaches in relation to your MX Account.

Care should be taken in reviewing messages purporting to originate from MX Global and, should you have any uncertainty regarding the authenticity of any communication, you should log in to your MX Account through our website to review any transactions or required actions.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you accept and agree that you have full responsibility for all activity that occurs in or through your MX Account and accept all risks of any unauthorised or authorised access to your MX Account.

15.2 Private keys.

MX Global securely stores all Supported Digital Asset private keys (“Private Keys”) associated with any MX Account. You accept and agree that MX Global shall retain full ownership and control of the Private Keys associated with your MX Account and that you shall have no control of, access to, or the ability to use, such Private Keys. For example, but without limiting the generality of the foregoing, MX Global will not:

• accept or adhere to any instruction to sign any data with a Private Key;

• give access to any funds associated with your private keys, other than those of the Supported Digital Asset associated with your digital asset wallet;

• allow the creation of any receive addresses associated with a Private Key other than receive addresses created through your MX Wallet. MX Global will not credit to your MX Wallet any digital asset associated with a Private Key other than where such funds have been received via a receive address generated through your MX Wallet.

16. SERVICE AVAILABILITY

16.1 While we will do everything, we can to provide continuous operations, MX Global does not provide any warranty in relation to the availability of our website or your MX Account. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we do not guarantee continuous access to our website or your MX Account and make no representation that our website, MX Global API, your MX Account and/or any products or services offered therein will be available without interruption; or that there will be no delays, failures, errors, omissions or loss of transmitted information.

17. TRANSACTIONS ON DIGITAL ASSET NETWORKS

17.1 When you use your MX Account to send or receive digital asset, the transaction must be confirmed and recorded in the public ledger associated with the relevant digital asset network (e.g. the Bitcoin network or the Ethereum network). That digital asset network is solely responsible for verifying and confirming any such transactions. MX Global cannot confirm, cancel or reverse transactions on a digital asset network, other than confirming to you that the network has completed the transaction. You accept and agree that:

• Once submitted to a digital asset network, a transaction will be unconfirmed for a period of time pending sufficient confirmation of the transaction by the network. A transaction is not complete while it is in a pending state. Funds associated with transactions that are in a pending state will be designated accordingly, and will not be included in your MX Wallet balance or be available to you to conduct transactions;

• When you send digital asset from your MX Account, you are authorising us to submit your transaction request to the relevant digital asset network. Once a transaction request has been submitted to the relevant digital asset network, the network will automatically complete or reject the request and neither you or MX Global will be able to cancel or otherwise modify your transaction; and

• Digital Asset networks are operated by decentralised networks of independent third parties. They are not owned, controlled or operated by MX Global so we cannot ensure that any transaction details you submit will be confirmed by the relevant digital asset network. You agree that any transaction details you submit may not be completed, or may be substantially delayed, by the digital asset network used to process the transaction.

17.2 Network protocols and operating rules.

The underlying software protocols that govern the operation of the Supported Digital Assets are open source. Accordingly, anyone can use, copy, modify, and distribute them and MX Global has no ownership of or control over these protocols. By using our website, you accept and agree that:

• MX Global is not responsible for the operation of any digital asset network’s underlying software protocols and makes no guarantee as to their availability, security, or functionality;

• the underlying software protocols are subject to sudden changes in operating rules (known as “forks”), and that such forks may materially affect the value, function, and/or name of any digital asset you store in your MX Account. Should a fork occur, MX Global may, with or without notice to you, temporarily suspend our operations and, in our sole discretion, decide whether or not to support either branch of the forked protocol entirely; and

• in the event MX Global decides not to support a branch of a forked protocol, you will not be given access to the assets on that fork. Those assets will be securely held by MX Global and we will not buy or sell them.

18. ACCOUNT INACTIVITY

18.1 Fiat deposited into your MX Wallet may only be used for the purchase of Supported Digital Assets and/or Withdrawal to an approved bank account (see The MX Wallet). You must not use your MX Wallet for the purpose of storing Fiat.

Where Fiat in your MX Wallet is not used for a period exceeding three (3) months, MX Global may charge and obtain from you an Inactivity Fee of MYR3.00 per month, which shall be collected from the Fiat held in your MX Wallet. Should we have reasonable grounds on which to suspect you are using your MX Wallet primarily for the purpose of storing Fiat, MX Global reserves the right to restrict, suspend or terminate your MX Account.

18.2 Unclaimed property.

In the event any funds are held in your MX Wallet(s) and MX Global has no record of any use of your MX Account for several years, and we are unable to contact you, the law may require us to report and deliver such funds to the relevant authorities as unclaimed property.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, MX Global reserves the right to deduct a dormancy fee or other administrative charges from such unclaimed funds.

19.1 You acknowledge and agree that:

• MX Global may, at its sole discretion, close its User Account at any time;

• You may close your MX Account, by submitting a closure request via the Support page on our website;

• the User is responsible for any fees, costs, expenses, charges or obligations (including, but not limited to, legal and court fees or transfer costs of fiat currency) associated with closing its User Account;

• MX Global may, at its sole discretion, set-off any outstanding money such User owes to MX Global in connection with the User’s use of the Digital Asset Services (“Outstanding Amounts”) by deducting those Outstanding Amounts from the balance in such User Account; and

• if the Outstanding Amounts and/or the User Account closing costs exceed the balance in the User Account, such User will be responsible for reimbursing MX Global, with such costs to be paid in full. For clarity, MX Global reserves the right to refuse to close the relevant User Account in such circumstances.

When MX Global initiates the MX Account closure, MX Global shall notify the user to transfer the digital asset balance into digital asset wallet held outside MX Exchange within 5 working days. MX Global shall transfer the remaining Fiat balance into the user’s registered bank account.

Similarly, if you request to close your MX Account, you must transfer out your digital asset balance into digital asset wallet held outside MX Exchange within 5 working days from the date of closure request.

You accept and acknowledge that, once your MX Account is closed:

• you will have no further access to it;

• MX Global will be under no obligation to notify you of, or provide to you, any digital asset sent to any receive address associated with your MX Account; and

• MX Global reserves the right (but has no obligation) to delete all of your information and account data stored on our servers, and also reserves the right to retain any information that is required for legal or operational reasons.

If at the date of closure of your account, any digital asset remains in your MX Wallet(s), you accept and agree that MX shall retain such funds and that you shall have no further claim to them. 

You accept and agree that MX Global shall not be liable to you or any third party in relation to the closure of your MX Account, the termination of access to your MX Account, or for the deletion of your information or MX Account data.

However, we are under no obligation to allow you to reinstate a transaction at the same price or on the same terms as the suspended, reversed or cancelled transaction.

20.5 MX Global will make all reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of any decision to restrict, suspend or terminate your MX Account, unless we are prevented from doing so by any legal or regulatory process or requirement, or where doing so may compromise MX Global’s security and/or risk management procedures.
