Welcome to DemoCry. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the DemoCry platform, website, and services (collectively, "DemoCry" or "the Platform"). By accessing or using DemoCry, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use DemoCry.

01The Agreement

These Terms form a legal agreement between you ("User", "you") and Kudos AiN Ltd, a company registered in the United Kingdom (Company Number 17177713) operating the DemoCry Platform ("we", "us", "our").

By creating an account, casting a vote, subscribing to any tier, or otherwise using DemoCry, you confirm that:

02Who We Are

Kudos AiN Ltd is a UK-registered company operating the DemoCry Platform. Our primary operational base is currently in Nairobi, Kenya, with founding leadership based across the UK and Kenya.

DemoCry is a direct democracy platform designed to allow individuals to vote on issues, direct funding toward voter-selected solutions, and participate in transparent, blockchain-verified civic engagement across borders.

DemoCry is not a political party, government body, financial institution, investment platform, or licensed securities dealer. It is a civic engagement platform.

03What DemoCry Offers

DemoCry provides:

DemoCry operates in pre-launch phase at the time of these Terms taking effect. Features, availability, and functionality may change as the Platform develops. Users will be notified of material changes.

04Your Account

Registration

To access full DemoCry features, you must create an account by providing accurate information including your name and a valid email address.

Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. Notify us immediately at security@democry.world of any unauthorized access.

One Account Per Person

Each individual may hold only one active DemoCry account. Multiple accounts, fake identities, bots, or automated registrations are prohibited and will result in immediate termination.

Video Verification

To ensure votes represent real human beings, DemoCry uses AI-assisted video verification during the voting process. You consent to the temporary processing of a short video recording of yourself speaking your vote. See our Privacy Policy for details on how this video data is handled.

05Voting & Video Verification

How Voting Works

Votes on DemoCry are cast through a video verification process wherein you speak your chosen vote aloud on camera. AI verification confirms:

Blockchain Recording

Once verified, your vote is recorded on the Stellar blockchain in an anonymized format. The vote itself is permanent and publicly verifiable; the link between vote and identity is protected by cryptographic separation.

Vote Weight

Each verified paying member receives equal vote weight. Free tier users may view and understand issues but cannot cast weighted votes. This ensures that the platform is funded by those participating in its governance.

Vote Immutability

Once cast and recorded to blockchain, votes cannot be edited, deleted, or reversed by any party — including DemoCry itself, users, governments, or third parties. This is a fundamental design principle.

06Payments & Subscriptions

Subscription Tiers

DemoCry offers a free tier (view-only) and a paid subscription tier ($1 USD/month or local equivalent) that grants full voting rights and access to referral earnings.

Payment Methods

Accepted methods may include M-Pesa, debit/credit card, and cryptocurrency, subject to availability in your jurisdiction.

Automatic Renewal

Paid subscriptions renew automatically on a monthly basis unless canceled. You may cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

Fee Allocation

Every $1 subscription is allocated as follows on-chain:

Refunds

Subscription payments are generally non-refundable due to the nature of blockchain transactions and the immediate allocation of funds to referrers and the Solutions Fund. Exceptional refund requests may be considered case-by-case at our sole discretion.

07Creator & Affiliate Program

DemoCry operates an Affiliate Impact Network wherein content creators, influencers, and members may earn commission by introducing new paying members through their unique referral links.
