Last updated on 01.01.2026

This Risk Disclosure (the "Disclosure") is provided by Datalink sp. z o.o., a company established and existing under the laws of the Republic of Poland, registration number 0001124387, a duly authorized Virtual Assets Service Provider, which maintains its principal place of business at ul. Hoża 86, apt. 210, Warsaw 00-682, Poland (the "Itez", "we", "us", or "our"), operating the platform available at itez.com (the "Platform")

⚠️ IMPORTANT: By using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and accepted all risks described in this Disclosure.

  1. 1. CRITICAL WARNINGS

    Virtual assets carry substantial risks and are not suitable for everyone. You may lose some or all of your investment. Before using our Services:

    • Carefully consider if virtual asset transactions suit your financial condition and risk tolerance
    • Only invest funds you can afford to lose entirely
    • Conduct your own research and do not rely solely on information from Itez
    • Understand that Itez does not provide investment, financial, legal, or tax advice

    You agree not to hold Itez responsible for losses resulting from these risks.

  2. 2. MARKET RISKS

    Extreme Price Volatility

    Virtual assets experience extreme price volatility and may rapidly lose value or fall to zero. Factors include market sentiment, regulatory changes, technological developments, macroeconomic conditions, trading activity, manipulation, and media coverage.

    Not Legal Tender

    Virtual assets are not legal tender, lack government backing, and have no protections like traditional currencies.

    Liquidity Risk

    You may be unable to sell virtual assets when desired or only at unfavorable prices due to insufficient market liquidity, wide bid-ask spreads, or market disruptions.

    Total Loss Risk

    If market participants lose confidence in a virtual asset due to technological failures, regulatory prohibitions, or competition, it may result in permanent total loss of value.

  3. 3. REGULATORY RISKS

    The regulatory status of virtual assets varies significantly and is subject to change. Regulatory changes may affect asset value, liquidity, usability, and Itez's ability to provide Services.

    Itez may be required by law to suspend accounts, freeze funds, refuse transactions, or report activities to authorities, potentially causing losses.

  4. 4. MiCA COMPLIANCE RISKS

    Non-Compliant Assets

    Not all virtual assets on our Platform comply with EU MiCA requirements. Non-compliant assets present higher risks, including reduced transparency, less stringent standards, and limited protections. Itez strongly encourages trading only MiCA-compliant assets.

    Stablecoin Risks

    ⚠️ WARNING: Not all stablecoins on our Platform have MiCA-authorized issuers. Non-authorized stablecoins present higher risks including redemption failure, insufficient reserves, lack of transparency, limited trading options, and de-pegging risk.p>

    Itez strongly encourages trading only stablecoins with MiCA-authorized issuers. Verify authorization at: https://www.esma.europa.eu/esmas-activities/digital-finance-and-innovation/markets-crypto-assets-regulation-micap

    No Endorsement

    Availability of assets on our Platform does not constitute endorsement or investment recommendation. We do not guarantee any asset will meet its objectives.

  5. 5. SECURITY & TECHNOLOGY RISKS

    Fraud & Theft

    Virtual assets may be permanently lost through phishing attacks, spoofing, hacking, malware, or social engineering. Such losses are typically irreversible.

    Technical Risks

    Software bugs, network attacks, smart contract vulnerabilities, blockchain forks, or system failures may cause loss of assets or prevent access.

    Platform Availability

    Our Platform relies on complex infrastructure and third-party services. We cannot guarantee uninterrupted, error-free operation. Outages may prevent account access or transaction execution.

    Blockchain Network Risks

    Itez has no control over blockchain networks. Risks include transaction delays, high fees, failed transactions, protocol changes, and potential 51% attacks.

    Network Congestion & Order Delays

    Itez uses good faith efforts to fulfill orders, but cannot control blockchain transaction times. Network congestion may cause significant delays, with execution at prices different from expected. Transaction fees may increase substantially during high-demand periods.

  6. 6. USER RESPONSIBILITY RISKS

    Irreversible Transactions

    Virtual asset transactions are generally irreversible and cannot be canceled or refunded, even if sent in error, to wrong addresses, or as a result of fraud.

    User Errors

    You are responsible for transaction accuracy. Sending assets to incorrect wallet addresses, selecting wrong assets, or using wrong networks typically results in permanent, irreversible loss. If you transfer to a wallet you control but enter details incorrectly, you will be fully liable for permanent loss.

    Wallet Security

    You are solely responsible for securing private keys and seed phrases. Loss or theft results in permanent, irreversible loss of assets. Itez cannot recover lost private keys or seed phrases.

    Technical Knowledge Required

    Safely using virtual assets requires understanding blockchain technology, secure key management, address verification, different networks, and scam identification. Insufficient knowledge may result in errors or losses.

  7. 7. THIRD-PARTY RISKS

    Itez relies on third-party payment processors, exchanges, custodians, banking partners, and technology providers to deliver Services.

    ⚠️ CRITICAL: Transactions through third parties are not protected as bank deposits. Third-party insolvency may result in total or partial loss of your funds or virtual assets. Third-party failures, fraud, or service interruptions may prevent transaction processing or asset access.

  8. 8. FRAUD & SCAM RISKS

    Criminals may impersonate Itez through unofficial channels, offering fake services, requesting credentials, or claiming urgent account issues.

    Itez will NEVER:

    • Contact you via unofficial channels to offer services
    • Request passwords, private keys, seed phrases, or 2FA codes
    • Offer "backdoor" account access
    • Guarantee returns or "risk-free" investments
    • Pressure urgent decisions or transfers

    Be aware of Ponzi schemes, fake ICOs, pump-and-dump schemes, and fraudulent trading bots.

    If you suspect fraud: (1) Report to Itez via official channels, (2) Report to local law enforcement, (3) Report to financial regulators, (4) Preserve all evidence.

  9. 9. UNAUTHORIZED SERVICES

    Only authorized directors and officers of Datalink sp. z o.o. can enter binding agreements on behalf of Itez. Any agreements by unauthorized individuals are invalid and not binding.

    Before entering into any agreement, contact Itez through official channels to verify authority. Be skeptical of unsolicited offers.
