YuruFun Character Secondary Use Policy for Yuru DAO
Last Updated: April 22, 2026
Issued by: Yuru DAO (hereinafter referred to as “the DAO”)
This policy sets forth the terms of use applicable to individuals or legal entities (hereinafter referred to as “Issuers”) who issue character-based tokens (hereinafter referred to as “Tokens”) on the Yuru DAO platform (hereinafter referred to as “the Platform”). Issuers must agree to this policy when issuing Tokens. Token issuance without agreement will not be accepted.
1. Issuer’s Representations
By issuing Tokens, the Issuer represents that all of the following matters are true and accurate. Violation of any representation may trigger the measures stipulated in Article 2 of this DAO policy.
1.1. Originality and Secondary Use Rights
Issuers shall confirm that the character is their own original work or that they possess legitimate secondary use rights. Specifically, they shall confirm that one of the following applies:
- The Issuer solely owns the copyright to the character.
- The Issuer has obtained written permission for secondary use from the copyright holder (and possesses documentary evidence such as a contract).
- The character’s copyright protection period has expired, and it is in the public domain.
- The character is published under an open license (e.g., CC-BY, CC0) that explicitly permits secondary use.
Issuers shall declare which of the above applies at the time of issuance and shall promptly submit supporting documents if requested by the DAO.
1.2. Agreement to Suspension of Trading and Refunds
If it is found that the Issuer has used a third party’s intellectual property rights (including copyrights, trademarks, design rights, and portrait rights) without permission, the DAO may suspend trading of the relevant Tokens, cancel the issuance, and initiate refunds to purchasers. The Issuer agrees in advance that these measures may be implemented.
The funds for refunds shall be sourced from the total circulating value of the Tokens, reserves held by the Platform, and the Issuer’s staked Token balance. Costs associated with the refund process will also be covered by these funds.
1.3. Obligation to Submit Counter-Evidence against Objections
If the legitimate rights holder of a character or their agent files a claim of infringement against the Issuer’s Tokens, the Issuer shall be obligated to submit counter-evidence in writing or by electronic means within 14 days from the date of receiving the notice.
The counter-evidence shall include objective evidence supporting the representations made in Article 1.1 (e.g., license agreements, copyright registration information, evidence of prior use). If counter-evidence is not submitted within the deadline, or if the submitted counter-evidence is deemed insufficient, the DAO may implement measures under Article 2.
1.4. Measures against False Representations
If any representation made in Article 1.1 is found to be false, the Issuer agrees to the following measures:
- Permanent suspension from the Platform and blacklisting of associated wallet addresses.
- Forfeiture of the Issuer’s staked Token balance on the Platform.
- Allocation of forfeited balance as compensation to victims (legitimate rights holders and purchasers).
- Sharing of the fact of false representation and the Issuer’s identification information with relevant law enforcement agencies, rights holder organizations, and other crypto asset platforms.
“False representation” refers to cases where the Issuer knew that the content was untrue at the time of making the representation, or could have known it was untrue with reasonable care.
1.5. Compliance with Public Order and Applicable Laws
Issuers shall ensure that community activities related to the issued Tokens (including chat on the Platform, community pages, SNS integration, distribution, in-game events, etc.) do not violate the laws, public order, and community guidelines of Japan and other applicable countries.
Specifically, Issuers shall not engage in, nor encourage third parties to engage in, the following acts:
- Dissemination of content that promotes violence, discrimination, hate speech, sexual exploitation, or content that violates the protection of minors.
- Fraud, market manipulation (including pump-and-dump schemes), insider trading, or inducement of transactions through deception.
- Mediation of money laundering, terrorist financing, or transactions subject to economic sanctions.
- Infringement of intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or defamation.
- Unauthorized access to the Platform, denial of service, spam, or automated fraudulent transactions.
Violation of this article may result in the DAO implementing measures equivalent to those in Articles 1.2 and 1.4.
2. Measures Implemented by the DAO
To ensure the effectiveness of this policy, the DAO may implement the following measures. These measures will be executed through the DAO’s governance process (e.g., community voting, approval by the council).
2.1. Suspension of Token Trading and Removal from the Platform
If grounds for violation of Article 1.2, 1.4, or 1.5 are recognized, the DAO may suspend the display, trading functions, and provision of related information for the relevant Tokens on the Platform. This will halt new buying and selling on the Platform’s frontend. However, this does not guarantee the suspension of trading on decentralized exchanges (DEXs). The DAO does not have the technical means to enforce trading suspension on DEXs and is not responsible for any damages arising from continued trading on DEXs.
2.2. Refund Measures for Purchasers
If the Issuer does not provide reasonable counter-evidence or corrective measures within 72 hours after the trading suspension under Article 2.1, the DAO may initiate refund measures for purchasers, using the Issuer’s staked Token balance on the Platform and reserves held by the Platform as funding sources. The refund amount will be proportionally distributed based on each purchaser’s payment at the time of purchase, but the total refund amount will be limited to the extent of these funds. The DAO does not guarantee refunds exceeding these funds and is not obligated to refund losses incurred through trading on DEXs.
2.3. Permanent Suspension
If a violation of Article 1.4 is confirmed, the DAO will permanently suspend the Issuer’s account and associated wallet addresses.
2.4. Forfeiture of Tokens
If a violation of Article 1.4 is confirmed, the DAO will forfeit the Issuer’s staked Token balance and allocate it for compensation to victims and replenishment of ecosystem reserves. The forfeiture process will be executed after a certain grace period (timelock).
2.5. Disclosure of Information
The DAO may disclose the Issuer’s identification information, transaction history, and records of agreement to this policy in response to legitimate requests from law enforcement agencies, courts, or regulatory authorities.
3. Objection Procedure
3.1. Contact for Objections
The legitimate rights holder of a character or their agent may file a claim of infringement by using the “IP Objection Form” on the Platform or by sending an email to legal@yuru.fun. The claim must include the following information:
- Identification information of the claimant and documents proving their rights (e.g., copyright registration information, trademark registration information).
- Identification information of the target Tokens (e.g., mint address, Issuer’s wallet address).
- Specific facts and evidence supporting the claim of infringement (e.g., image comparison, identification of design identity).
3.2. Acceptance and Notification
The DAO will conduct an initial review within 72 hours of receiving a claim. For claims that meet the formal requirements, the DAO will electronically notify the Issuer. At the same time, the transfer of the target Tokens to DEXs will be automatically put on hold.
3.3. Counter-Evidence Submission Period
The Issuer shall submit counter-evidence within 14 days from the date of receiving the notice. The counter-evidence shall include objective evidence supporting the representations made in Article 1.1.
3.4. Decision
The DAO will make a decision after comparing the claimant’s assertions and the Issuer’s counter-evidence. Opinions from independent legal or IP experts may be referenced for the decision. The decision will be electronically notified to both parties.
3.5. Reconsideration
A party dissatisfied with the decision may request reconsideration within 7 days from the date of receiving the decision notice. Reconsideration will be conducted by a different reviewer than the initial decision. The result of the reconsideration is final, and thereafter, the DAO’s internal procedures will conclude. If judicial resolution is desired, the provisions of Article 4 shall apply.
4. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
4.1. Governing Law
These Terms and all legal relations between the Issuer and the DAO hereunder shall be governed by the laws of Singapore.
4.2. Jurisdiction
Any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms shall be finally resolved by arbitration in Singapore in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) for the time being in force, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this clause. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
4.3. Interim Relief
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the DAO or the rights holder may directly apply to the competent courts in each country for interim relief, such as injunctive relief, against intellectual property infringement.
5. Amendment of Terms
5.1. Amendments
The DAO may amend these Terms at any time. When amendments are made, the latest version will be published on the Platform.
5.2. Non-Retroactivity to Already Issued Tokens
For Tokens already issued, the terms and conditions at the time of issuance shall continue to apply, and Issuers will not be retroactively required to re-agree. Amended terms and conditions shall apply only to newly issued Tokens.
5.3. Notification Before Enforcement
Registered Users of the Platform will be notified of the amendments and their effective date at least 30 days prior to the effective date of the amended Terms.
6. Contact Information
For inquiries regarding these Terms, please contact legal@yuru.fun.
7. Disclaimer
Tokens issued on the Platform are not designed for investment purposes and do not constitute any form of investment advice, financial product, or security. The value of Tokens is highly volatile, and prices are not guaranteed. Issuers and purchasers shall understand all risks associated with the use of Tokens (including price volatility risk, liquidity risk, smart contract vulnerabilities, and regulatory risk) and act at their own responsibility. The DAO is not responsible for any damages arising from the use of Tokens.
8. Community Guidelines
For the sound operation and development of the Platform, Issuers and Users shall comply with the separately stipulated Yuru DAO Platform Guidelines. The Guidelines detail communication principles, prohibited acts, and content standards, and apply integrally with these Terms. If acts violating the Guidelines are confirmed, measures under Article 1.5 and Article 2 of these Terms may be taken.
