Terms of Service
Overview
Ureka is a decentralized, open-source interface for the Hive blockchain. It does not host its own content or user data.
Ureka merely displays content that already exists on the Hive blockchain — a public, decentralized and immutable network.
By using the Ureka website, you agree to the following terms:
1. No User Accounts
Ureka does not operate a login system or maintain any user database. Any "login" functionality is handled by third-party Hive authentication tools (e.g., Hive Keychain). Ureka does not have access to your credentials or private keys.
Ownership of your own data and account is a built-in feature of the Hive blockchain. Hive Keychain is required to use Ureka and it is not maintained or controlled by Ureka. Hive Keychain is designed to ensure that you can interact with the Hive blockchain without exposing your account keys to anyone else. For updates on the Hive Keychain project, follow 
You are solely responsible for the security and use of your Hive account.
2. Content on Hive
Content you view through Ureka is:
- Public and permanent
- Stored on a decentralized blockchain
- Not modifiable or removable by the Ureka website, except where the content owner uses Ureka in their browser to edit their own content.
You understand that Ureka cannot and does not moderate or remove blockchain content.
Ureka does not endorse any specific content shown via this interface.
3. Responsibility and Conduct
You agree to use Ureka in a way that is:
- Respectful to others
- In alignment with peaceful and constructive dialogue
- Not abusive, harassing, or harmful
You retain full responsibility for your actions on the Hive blockchain. Ureka does not intervene in disputes, censor content, or offer moderation services beyond what the Hive protocol itself allows. Moderation is the responsibility of Hive users.
4. No Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law:
- Ureka provides this site “as-is” with no warranty
- Ureka disclaims liability for content posted on Hive
- Ureka is not liable for actions taken by other users
- Ureka is not responsible for third-party embeds or linked services, including the optional live chat features. All private chat messages are end-to-end encrypted and processed via the Peakd.com chat server. You agree to the PeakD Terms of Service when opting to use the chat system on Ureka.
If you believe harmful or unlawful content exists on Hive, you must address it via the decentralised governance structures provided by Hive itself.
5. Financial Risk Disclaimer
Ureka is a platform that interacts with the Hive blockchain and may involve cryptocurrency-based rewards and transactions.
