These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the La Culex website, token presale, staking, referrals, and any other services ("Services") provided by La Culex ("Project", "we", "us"). By accessing or using any Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use our Services.

1. Definitions
$CULEX means the native token of the La Culex Project.
Presale means the period during which $CULEX is sold to early participants before public launch.
Hive Vault means the staking platform where users lock $CULEX for rewards.
Bite Chain refers to the referral program.
Itchy Burns refers to the structured token burn stages.
User or "you" means any person who uses the Services.

2. Acceptance of Terms
By using our Website or Services, you confirm you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms, plus our Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, and any other legal notices.
You represent that you are of legal age in your jurisdiction and legally capable of entering into binding contracts.

3. Token Purchase / Presale
Participation in the presale is entirely voluntary and carries risks, including loss of capital.
The presale price, number of tokens, and sale structure (stages, pricing, burns) are as described on our Website/whitepaper. La Culex reserves the right to modify presale features only if necessary, but changes will be notified ahead of implementation.
Tokens are purchased as digital assets. No guarantee is given that $CULEX will have any particular value.

4. Token Use & Ownership
Ownership of $CULEX tokens gives you no rights, in any form, to dividends or shares in La Culex or its founders. It is neither a security nor an equity.
You are responsible for your wallet's security and private keys. We are not liable for any loss due to your own negligence.

5. Referrals & Rewards
The Bite Chain program entitles user and referee to rewards (e.g., 12%) as defined.
Rewards are funded via the Meme Hive allocation. We reserve the right to pause, modify, or discontinue referral programs if necessary.

6. Staking
When staking through the Hive Vault, you accept the lock-period, APY, and other conditions published.
Rewards are distributed in $CULEX as per the staking schedule. Past APR/APY does not guarantee future rewards.

7. Burns & Tokenomics
The Itchy Burns mechanism (reserved burns, stages, amounts) is as published.
We may adjust mechanics only if required due to legal, technical, or market regulation changes, but will aim to preserve the spirit of the burn schedule.

8. Security, Audit & Liquidity
Smart contracts are audited; once safety checks are complete, the contract will be renounced.
Liquidity is locked for the period stated (18 months).
No blacklist, honeypot, or other "trap" features exist in the contract at the time of publishing these Terms.

9. Risks & No Guarantees
Cryptocurrency and token markets are volatile and speculative. The value of $CULEX can go down as well as up.
No guarantee of profitability, listing, or price appreciation.
You acknowledge that all services and content are provided "as is", with no express or implied warranty by the project or its team.

10. Restrictions & Prohibited Use

• You must not use the Website or Services in any way that violates laws (including AML/KYC, sanctions, etc.).
• You must not engage in fraudulent or abusive behavior (e.g., using bots to farm referral rewards, manipulating token contracts, etc.).

11. Privacy & Data
Our Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, and protection of personal data.
By using Services, you consent to the processing of your personal data as per the Privacy Policy.

12. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be posted on the Website.
Continued use after changes means you accept the new Terms.

13. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution
You may not use Services if you are in a jurisdiction where participation would be illegal (including U.S. states or territories that may restrict certain digital asset activities).
You must not engage in fraud, market manipulation, or abusive use of referrals or staking systems.

14. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, La Culex, its team, partners, and affiliates will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to losses of profits, loss of data, or lost opportunities arising from your use or inability to use Services.
