Terms of Service
Effective Date: Apr 10, 2026 Last Updated: May 13, 2026
Welcome to America 250. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website america250.live and any related services (collectively, the "Service") operated by CASIR AGENCY S.R.L., a limited liability company registered ("we," "us," or "our").
Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing or using the Service, and especially before making any purchase, you agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
#1. Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old to create an account or use the Service. To make a purchase on the Service, you must additionally be of the age of majority in your jurisdiction (typically 18) or have the consent and involvement of a parent or legal guardian. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that:
- You meet the applicable age requirements.
- You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract.
- You are not barred from using the Service under applicable law.
- The information you provide is accurate and current.
#2. The Service
America 250 is a commemorative digital experience honoring the 250th anniversary of the United States of America. The Service allows registered users to purchase and personalize Hexes — individual hexagonal spaces on an interactive map — and to publish stories, inscriptions, and other content associated with them.
#2.1 Independent, Non-Governmental Project
America 250 is an independent, privately operated commemorative project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way connected to:
- The United States Government or any of its agencies, departments, or branches (federal, state, or local).
- The U.S. Semiquincentennial Commission ("America250"), america250.org, or any other official, governmental, or congressionally-chartered 250th anniversary commission, organization, or initiative.
- Any state-level 250th anniversary commission or related governmental body.
All views, content, and historical material presented on the Service are those of CASÎR AGENCY S.R.L. and individual users, and do not represent the views or positions of any government or official commemorative body. The name "America 250" as used on this Service refers solely to this independent commemorative experience and should not be confused with any governmental initiative of similar name.
#3. Your Account
To use certain features, including purchasing a Hex, you must create an account. You agree to:
- Provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information.
- Keep your password confidential and secure.
- Notify us immediately at [email protected] of any unauthorized use of your account.
- Be responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
You may not create more than one account, share your account, or transfer your account to another person without our prior written consent. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
#4. Purchase of Hexes
#4.1 What You Are Purchasing
When you purchase a Hex, you acquire a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license that includes:
- Hex coordinate assignment — one specific hexagonal coordinate on the America 250 map permanently associated with your account.
- Story publication rights — the ability to publish and display content of your choice on that Hex, subject to these Terms and our content rules (Section 6), with the story made publicly viewable as part of the commemorative record.
- Digital commemorative certificate — an individual digital certificate confirming your acquisition of the Hex, displaying your name (or chosen display identifier), the Hex coordinates, the purchase date, and a QR code linking to the public page of your Hex and its associated story. The certificate is delivered electronically (e.g., as a downloadable PDF or image) after purchase completion and is intended for personal, commemorative use only.
A Hex and its associated certificate are digital items existing within the Service. They are not real property, not securities, not financial instruments, and confer no rights outside the Service.
#4.2 Hex Types and Pricing
We currently offer:
- Standard Hex — USD $99 (one-time payment)
- Featured Hex — USD $149 (one-time payment) — receives enhanced visibility and prominence on the Service as described on the purchase page at the time of purchase
All prices are stated in U.S. dollars (USD) and are exclusive of any applicable taxes, which may be added at checkout based on your jurisdiction.
Pricing may change at any time. Any new price applies only to purchases made after the change takes effect; it does not affect Hexes already purchased.
#4.3 Payment
Payments are processed exclusively by PayPal under PayPal's own terms and privacy policy. We do not collect or store your credit card or bank account details.
By completing a purchase, you authorize us (through PayPal) to charge the full purchase price, plus any applicable taxes, to your selected payment method.
#4.4 Duration
Subject to these Terms, your Hex license remains in effect for as long as the Service is operational and your account is in good standing. We intend to operate the Service indefinitely as a commemorative experience, but we cannot and do not guarantee perpetual availability. See Section 4.9 (Service Discontinuation) below.
#4.5 Non-Transferability
Hexes are personal to your account and may not be sold, gifted, traded, assigned, or otherwise transferred to any other person or account. Any attempted transfer is void. Hexes do not pass by inheritance, succession, or operation of law.
#4.6 All Sales Are Final — No Refunds
Except where required by applicable mandatory consumer protection law (see Section 4.7 below), all sales are final. We do not offer refunds, partial or full, including but not limited to:
- Change of mind.
- Failure to use or engage with your Hex.
- Removal of your content for violation of these Terms.
- Suspension or termination of your account due to your violation of these Terms.
- Subsequent price reductions or promotional offers.
- Discontinuation of the Service after a reasonable operating period.
#4.7 EU/EEA/UK Consumer Right of Withdrawal
If you are a consumer residing in the European Union, the European Economic Area, or the United Kingdom, you generally have a right to withdraw from a distance contract within 14 days of conclusion, without giving any reason, under EU Directive 2011/83/EU and equivalent national laws.
Important — Express Waiver of the Right of Withdrawal:
Because a Hex is digital content that is supplied to you immediately upon completion of the purchase, the right of withdrawal does not apply if you, at the time of purchase:
- Give your express prior consent to begin the supply of the digital content before the end of the 14-day withdrawal period, and
- Acknowledge that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal.
At checkout, you will be asked to confirm this consent and acknowledgment. By completing the purchase, you confirm both. If you do not wish to waive your right of withdrawal, do not complete the purchase.
If, for any reason, you have not provided this express waiver, you may exercise your right of withdrawal within 14 days by emailing [email protected] with your name, the email associated with the purchase, and the transaction ID. We will refund the purchase price within 14 days of receiving your withdrawal notice, using the same payment method.
#4.8 Chargebacks and PayPal Buyer Protection
You may have additional rights under PayPal's Buyer Protection program. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the account of any user who initiates an unjustified chargeback or PayPal dispute in bad faith.
#4.9 Service Discontinuation
If we decide to discontinue the Service, we will use reasonable efforts to provide affected users with at least 90 days' advance notice by email and through the Service. During that period, you will be given a reasonable opportunity to export your content. No refund is owed in connection with discontinuation, except as may be required by applicable mandatory consumer protection law.
#4.10 Taxes
Prices displayed on the Service are exclusive of any taxes, duties, or government fees that may apply to your purchase based on your jurisdiction (including U.S. state sales tax, EU VAT, or other applicable taxes). Where we are required by law to collect such taxes, they will be added at checkout. Where collection is not our responsibility, you are responsible for any self-assessment or reporting required under your local law.
#4.11 Nature of the Purchase — Digital and Commemorative Only
You acknowledge and agree that:
- All items sold on the Service are purely digital — digital map coordinates, digital display rights, and digital commemorative certificates. No physical goods, land, real estate, deeds, or tangible property of any kind are sold, transferred, or implied.
- The Hex does not represent any ownership of, claim to, interest in, or right over any real-world land, territory, geographic location, real property, or natural resource. The map is a stylized digital representation for commemorative purposes only.
- The purchase is not an investment. It is not a financial product, a security, a token, a cryptocurrency, a share, a unit of any fund, or any form of investment contract. You should not expect any financial return, profit, dividend, appreciation in value, resale market, or monetary benefit from your purchase.
- The purchase is commemorative in nature — its value is personal, symbolic, and experiential. You are paying to participate in a commemorative digital experience and to publish your story as part of it.
- No tax-deductibility, charitable status, or governmental recognition is conferred by, or associated with, the purchase. CASÎR AGENCY S.R.L. is a commercial company, not a charity, foundation, or governmental entity.
