Terms of Use of the Viewing Platform
IMPORTANT – NEW CONTRACTUAL FRAMEWORK
Regulatory compliance – Discontinuation of the former crypto-asset services (formerly digital assets)
Automata France SAS, which until now carried out certain crypto-asset activities under the commercial name “Vancelian”, is required to discontinue, as from 30 June 2026, the crypto-asset services operated by it and falling within the status of Crypto-Asset Service Provider within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 of 31 May 2023 on markets in crypto-assets (“MiCA”).
This mandatory discontinuation concerns the services formerly provided by Automata France SAS, in particular custody, deposit, withdrawal, purchase-sale or exchange services relating to crypto-assets (formerly digital assets) operated within the framework of the former Vancelian platform.
These terms and conditions of use (hereinafter the “Terms of Use”) constitute a substantial modification of (i) the characteristics of the services formerly provided by Automata France SAS and (ii) the former general terms and conditions applicable to those services, resulting from regulatory and technical developments. These Terms of Use require the express acceptance of Users and apply exclusively to access to the new software interface named “App Automata France” and to the read-only visualisation of the Historical Positions Pending Settlement, in particular the Vaults and Exclusive Offers.
These Terms of Use govern exclusively the conditions of access to and use of the Restricted Area (as defined below), as well as the arrangements for the read-only visualisation of the Vaults, Exclusive Offers and, more generally, the Historical Positions Pending Settlement.
New App Automata France interface
In accordance with the new regulatory requirements applicable to Automata Holding Ltd, App Automata France is a software interface enabling the user to view certain information and their historical positions.
Within this new framework, Automata Holding Ltd acts solely in the capacity of publisher of the interface. It carries out no crypto-asset transaction, provides no exchange or custody service, and does not act as counterparty to users’ transactions.
App Automata France offers no service in Fiat Currency. In particular, the interface does not permit the holding, issuance, deposit, withdrawal or exchange of euros. Any reference to a value in euros, where it appears in the interface, is purely indicative and denominated by reference to a stablecoin, in particular EURC or USDC.
Information relating to the former Vancelian services
Users still holding assets, balances or positions opened under the former services offered by Automata France SAS under the Vancelian name are invited to consult the FAQ dedicated to the plan for the discontinuation of crypto-asset services (formerly digital assets), available on the Website (in particular the section “Your exit or transfer options”).
The purpose of that FAQ is to set out, for information purposes, the practical arrangements enabling the users concerned to recover, withdraw, convert or transfer their assets within the framework of the plan for the discontinuation of the former services.
It is specified that such FAQ does not form part of these Terms of Use and does not modify their scope. These Terms of Use govern only the conditions of access to and use of the Restricted Area as well as the read-only visualisation of the Historical Positions Pending Settlement. They govern neither the former Vancelian services, nor the withdrawal, transfer or repayment arrangements applicable to positions previously opened in the former Vancelian application. Those elements remain governed, as the case may be, by the former applicable contractual documents, by the discontinuation plan, by any dedicated terms separately accepted by the user, or by the terms specific to the third-party companies concerned.
These Terms of Use, which may be updated periodically, set out the conditions under which Automata Holding Ltd (the “Company”) allows the eligible User to access, within the platform, the Restricted Area dedicated to the read-only visualisation of the Historical Positions Pending Settlement, in particular the Vaults and Exclusive Offers.
Reminder: these Terms of Use constitute a substantial modification of (i) the characteristics of the services formerly provided by Automata France SAS and (ii) the former general terms and conditions applicable to those services, resulting from regulatory and technical developments. These Terms of Use require the express acceptance of Users and apply exclusively to the use of the new software interface named “App Automata France”.
Please read these Terms of Use carefully before using the Services. These Terms of Use inform You of the conditions applicable to the Restricted Area, the Vaults, the Exclusive Offers or any other Historical Position Pending Settlement.

3.1 Nature of the Application
The Services provided by the Company under these Terms of Use are limited to technical visualisation and display services within the Restricted Area, enabling the eligible User to consult, on a read-only basis, certain information relating to their Historical Positions Pending Settlement.
The Company itself provides NO custody, administration, exchange, brokerage, order execution, reception and transmission of orders, advice, portfolio management or intermediation service relating to crypto-assets.
The Application is made available in the form of a Web interface. It is not intended for “US persons” within the meaning of applicable US regulation, nor for persons located, organised or resident in a jurisdiction that is the subject of sanctions, who are not authorised to access it. Any attempt by a User to access the Application or to circumvent these restrictions is made at their sole risk and under their sole responsibility.
The Company makes no representation and provides no warranty as to the availability or compliance of the Application outside the territories where it is made available, and Users remain fully responsible for ensuring that their use of the Application complies with the laws applicable in their jurisdiction.
3.2 Access journey to the Restricted Area
Access to the Restricted Area is reserved solely for eligible Users whose e-mail address corresponds to an existing Historical Position Pending Settlement.
Where that condition is met, the User may be offered, within the Application, access to the Restricted Area, subject to prior acceptance of these Terms of Use.
The Restricted Area is limited to the read-only visualisation of the Historical Positions Pending Settlement, in particular the Vaults and Exclusive Offers. It does not permit any new subscription, any new outstanding amount, any transaction on the positions concerned, any management, any arbitrage, or any intervention by the Company in the flows relating to those positions.
3.3 Settlement of the Vaults and Exclusive Offers
The vault positions (“Vaults”) and exclusive offers (“Exclusive Offers”) are based on contracts entered into directly between the User and the third-party debtor companies (the “Third-Party Debtor Companies”), namely Solaria SAS and The Heights Bali SAS (in respect of Exclusive Offers, BTC loans) and Vancelian Ltd (in respect of the Mining Programme).
Those Third-Party Debtor Companies alone bear the obligation to pay interest and rewards, as well as to repay capital, in respect of the positions concerned.
Since the discontinuation of the Company’s former Services, the allocation of the Vaults and Exclusive Offers positions has been frozen as at 22 May 2026 and is presented on a read-only basis within the Restricted Area. Interest and rewards, and then capital at maturity, are paid directly by the Third-Party Debtor Companies.
The Company does not intervene in any of these flows, whether originating from Solaria SAS, The Heights Bali SAS or Vancelian Ltd; the Application is limited to enabling their visualisation within the Restricted Area.
3.4 Limited role of the Company
The Company acts exclusively as publisher of a technical interface enabling the read-only visualisation of the Historical Positions Pending Settlement within the Restricted Area. The Company does not custody crypto-assets, does not hold Users’ private keys, does not initiate or sign any transaction on their behalf, does not receive, transmit, route or execute any order or flow, does not act as counterparty and exercises no control over the obligations incumbent on the Third-Party Debtor Companies.
3.5 Evolution of the Services
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company may, at any time and without notice, develop, improve or adapt the Website, the Application and the Services, and more generally the Services offered, in particular with a view to improving the functionalities offered on the Website and the Application or within the framework of the Services. This may include the deployment of update(s), new version(s), new services or other services, or the removal of existing Services. The Company may in particular evolve the Restricted Area in order to improve its visualisation, display or security functionalities, or in order to take into account technical, regulatory or organisational constraints.
In the event of the definitive discontinuation of an existing Service, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to inform Users of that modification with reasonable notice and to provide them with alternative solutions (e.g. transfers to a third-party service, etc.). In the event of the definitive discontinuation of all Services, the Company shall proceed with the termination of these Terms of Use.
In addition, the Company may, at any time and without notice, supplement or modify the Website, the Application, their content and the Services accessible thereon, according to technological developments. Where applicable, the User must ensure that the resources of their computer/telephone are adapted to the modifications of the Website, the Application and the Services.
ARTICLE 4 – FEES
Unless otherwise indicated and brought to the attention of the eligible User, access to the Restricted Area and the read-only visualisation of the Historical Positions Pending Settlement give rise to no specific fee charged by the Company under these Terms of Use.

If one or more of these Terms of Use, or any part thereof, is or becomes invalid, unlawful or unenforceable in any respect, it shall, to the extent of such invalidity, unlawfulness or unenforceability, be deemed severed and deleted, and all other provisions shall remain in force and continue to produce all their effects.
Unless You indicate otherwise to us, or unless the law provides otherwise, You agree to receive all communications from us by the posting of notices on Your User Account within the Application. You acknowledge that You are able to print such communications for Your records. You agree that all communications that we address to You by electronic means satisfy any legal requirement requiring that a communication be made in writing.
To the extent that we may address messages to You directly via Your User Account on the Application, it is incumbent upon You to monitor those messages and to respond to them appropriately. You represent and warrant that any information that You enter is accurate and that it relates exclusively to You.
All communications and all data that we collect are governed by our Privacy Policy.
The Company draws the User’s attention to the risks inherent in any economic operation relating to crypto-assets. The User’s use of the Services entails acceptance of those risks. In that regard, any financial loss suffered by the User and resulting from the use of the Services shall not constitute a situation of unforeseeability (imprévision) and shall not give rise to the benefit of any legal or regulatory provision that may apply to such a situation, which the User expressly acknowledges and accepts. The same applies, more generally, in the event that the contractual balance were to be upset by circumstances that were not foreseeable at the time of conclusion of the Terms of Use, even if their performance were to prove excessively onerous, the User accepting to bear the entirety of the economic and financial consequences thereof and, in that case, to waive reliance on any legal or regulatory provision that would apply to such a situation of unforeseeability.
Any waiver of any breach of these Terms of Use by the Company, or of any default, under any of the stipulations of these Terms of Use by the User, shall be valid only if agreed in writing. Any subsequent breach or default by the User, whether similar or not, shall in no way affect these Terms of Use. Likewise, any failure or delay by either Party to these Terms of Use to require the strict performance of any of the stipulations of these Terms of Use shall not be construed as entailing a waiver of any of its rights under these Terms of Use.
These Terms of Use contain the entirety of the stipulations agreed between the Parties concerning exclusively access to and use of the Restricted Area. They neither repeal nor replace the former contractual documents applicable to the former Vancelian services, nor the underlying contracts entered into with the Third-Party Debtor Companies in respect of the Vaults, Exclusive Offers or other Historical Positions Pending Settlement.
Unless otherwise provided, the time limits and periods indicated in these Terms of Use are understood in calendar days.
ARTICLE 13 – ASSIGNMENT
The Company reserves the right to assign, at any time and without notice to You, its rights and obligations under these Terms of Use to any person, without seeking Your consent to such assignment.

- of the absence of a right of withdrawal and the other important contractual conditions.
The fact that Users use the Website or the Application entails full and complete acceptance of these Terms of Use, which the User expressly acknowledges, waiving reliance on any contradictory document, which would be unenforceable against the Company.
ARTICLE 15 – MEDIATION AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Any User having the status of consumer within the meaning of applicable law may, free of charge, refer the matter to a consumer mediator with a view to the amicable resolution of a dispute opposing them to the Company.
The body designated for that purpose by the Company is the Centre de la Médiation de la Consommation de Conciliateur de Justice (“CM2C”).
In order to contact that body, the User may go to its website https://www.cm2c.net/declarer-un-litige.php and file a claim there.
A dispute may be examined by the consumer mediator only if:
- the User evidences that they have previously attempted to resolve their dispute directly with the Company by means of a written claim expressly identified as such, setting out in detail the grounds of their claim as well as all information useful to the Company to understand, examine and assess the causes, consequences and effects of that claim, and sent by e-mail to: support@vancelian.com;
- the claim is not manifestly unfounded or abusive;
- the dispute has not already been examined, nor is it being examined, by another mediator or by a court;
- the User refers the matter to the mediator within a maximum period of one year from the date of their written claim addressed to the Company;
- the dispute falls within the mediator’s competence.
The User is informed by the mediator of the outcome reserved for their request for mediation.
In addition, the User is informed that, pursuant to Article 14 of Regulation (EU) No 524/2013, the European Commission has set up an online dispute resolution platform, facilitating the independent out-of-court settlement of online disputes between consumers and professionals within the European Union. That platform is accessible at the following link: https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/odr/.

IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE RELATING TO THE INTERPRETATION OR PERFORMANCE OF THESE TERMS OF USE, THE PARTIES SHALL ENDEAVOUR TO FIND AN AMICABLE SOLUTION.
Failing amicable settlement, You acknowledge and accept that in the event of a claim or dispute, such claim or dispute shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Paris (France).
THESE PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE APPLICABLE LAW AND COMPETENT COURTS APPLY SUBJECT TO THE MANDATORY PROVISIONS THAT MUST BE APPLIED TO THE USER IN THEIR CAPACITY AS A CONSUMER.

ANNEX – RISK FACTORS
Legal risk and risk of unfavourable regulatory intervention in one or more jurisdictions
The operation of the Services may be affected by the adoption of restrictive laws, the publication of restrictive or unfavourable opinions, the issuance of injunctions by national regulatory authorities, the bringing of proceedings or investigations of a regulatory nature, including, without limitation, the introduction of restrictions on the use or holding of crypto-assets, liable to prevent or limit the development of the Services.
Having regard to the absence of an established legal qualification of crypto-assets in most States, each User is strongly recommended to carry out a legal and tax analysis relating to the use of the Services, in light of the laws applicable to their nationality and place of residence.
Risk of theft and hacking
Computer hackers or other malicious or criminal groups or organisations may attempt to harm the Website and the Application or to compromise the availability of the Services in various ways, including, without limitation, by denial-of-service attacks, Sybil attacks, spoofing operations, malicious surfing, malware attacks or attacks based on consensus mechanisms.
Risk of security flaws in the core infrastructure software of the Website and the Application
There is a risk of weaknesses or bugs within the core infrastructure elements of the Website and the Application, liable to hinder the use of the Services.
Risk of flaw or exploitable vulnerability in the field of cryptography
Advances in cryptography, or technical progress such as the development of quantum computers, may pose risks to crypto-assets as well as to the Website and the Application.
Risk of dissolution of the project
Notwithstanding the fact that Users permanently have access to their funds, for several reasons including, without limitation, an unfavourable fluctuation in the market value of crypto-assets, the breakdown of business relationships or competing intellectual property claims, the project may cease to constitute a viable activity and be dissolved.
Risk of malfunction of the Website, the Application and the Services
The Website, the Application and the Services may be affected by an unfavourable malfunction including, without limitation, a malfunction resulting in the loss of market information.
Unforeseen risks
Crypto-assets constitute a new and unproven technology. In addition to the risks set out above, there are other risks that the Company’s team is unable to foresee. Risks may also arise and/or materialise in the form of unforeseen combinations or modifications of the risks set out herein.
In the event of doubt as to the measures that You must take and the consequences that will result therefrom, You are invited to consult, where applicable, Your professional adviser, in particular legal, financial, tax or other, in order to obtain the necessary opinions.
