This page explains, in plain language, the responsibilities you take on when you use EMPIRE to build and run a business online. It's a summary of terms you agree to when you sign up — please read it before you check out.
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, if higher) to purchase a plan, register a domain, or operate a site through EMPIRE. By checking out, you're confirming you meet this requirement.
EMPIRE (operated by CryptCode LLC) provides website, storefront, and domain tooling. It does not form a business on your behalf, and it is not a law firm, accountant, or business formation service. You are solely responsible for determining what licenses, registrations, permits, tax filings, or legal business structure (such as an LLC, sole proprietorship, or corporation) your business needs in your city, state, and country — and for actually obtaining them before you begin selling or operating.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, CryptCode LLC and EMPIRE are not liable for any claim, dispute, lawsuit, fine, tax liability, or other legal issue that arises from the business you operate on the platform, including but not limited to claims related to unlicensed business activity, product liability, consumer protection, employment, intellectual property, or tax compliance. You agree to indemnify and hold CryptCode LLC harmless from any such claims arising out of your use of the platform.
Checkout, subscriptions, and any customer payments processed through your store are handled by Stripe. CryptCode LLC does not hold or take custody of your funds; Stripe pays out directly to your connected bank account, subject to Stripe's own terms.
You're responsible for the content, products, and services you list on your site. Don't publish anything illegal, infringing, or that you don't have the rights to use.
We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected here with an updated date.
