You are responsible for ensuring that your use of SatRyn complies with all laws, regulations, and rules applicable in your jurisdiction. SatRyn makes no representations that the Service is appropriate or available for use in all jurisdictions. Access from jurisdictions where the Service or Digital Assets are illegal is prohibited.
3. Nature of the Service
3.1 Self-Custody Wallet
SatRyn is a Self-Custody Bitcoin wallet. This means:
- Your Private Keys are generated and stored exclusively on your device.
- SatRyn does not operate servers that store, transmit, or have access to your Private Keys, seed phrases, passwords, or funds.
- SatRyn cannot access, freeze, modify, reverse, or recover your Digital Assets or Private Keys under any circumstances.
- SatRyn is not a custodian, exchange, broker, financial institution, money services business (MSB), creditor, or fiduciary.
3.2 No Intermediary Role
SatRyn does not act as an intermediary, agent, or counterparty to any Bitcoin transaction. All transactions are broadcast directly from your device to the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network via publicly available Electrum servers. SatRyn has no ability to influence, intercept, or modify transactions once initiated.
3.3 Open Source Software
SatRyn is released as open source software under the applicable license. The complete source code is publicly available for inspection, audit, and verification at github.com/devdasx/satryn. The open source nature of SatRyn means you may review the code to independently verify security claims, privacy practices, and application behavior.
4. Self-Custody Responsibility & Risk Acknowledgment
By using SatRyn, you expressly acknowledge, understand, and accept the following:
4.1 Sole Responsibility for Private Keys
- You are the sole custodian of your Private Keys, seed phrases, and any passwords or PINs used with the Application.
- If you lose your Private Keys or seed phrase, your Digital Assets are permanently and irretrievably lost. There is no recovery mechanism, backdoor, or master key.
- SatRyn cannot recover, reset, or restore access to your wallet under any circumstances, including but not limited to court orders, law enforcement requests, or claims of fraud.
4.2 Transaction Irreversibility
- All Bitcoin transactions are irreversible once confirmed on the blockchain. SatRyn has no ability to cancel, reverse, or modify confirmed transactions.
- You are solely responsible for verifying transaction details (recipient address, amount, and fees) before authorizing any transaction.
- Sending Bitcoin to an incorrect address will result in permanent loss of those funds.
4.3 Market & Volatility Risk
- The value of Bitcoin is highly volatile and may fluctuate significantly. You acknowledge that the value of your Digital Assets may decrease, potentially to zero.
- SatRyn provides no guarantees regarding the value, stability, or liquidity of Bitcoin.
4.4 Network Risks
- The Bitcoin network operates independently of SatRyn. Network congestion, protocol changes, forks, or disruptions may affect transaction processing, confirmation times, and fees.
- SatRyn is not responsible for any losses caused by Bitcoin network issues, including but not limited to failed transactions, delayed confirmations, or fee miscalculations resulting from network conditions.
4.5 Security Risks
- While SatRyn employs industry-standard security measures (AES-256 encryption, iOS Keychain, Secure Enclave integration), no software is immune to all security threats.
- You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device, operating system, and network connections.
- You acknowledge the risks of malware, phishing attacks, social engineering, physical device theft, and other security threats.
4.6 Multisig Risks
- If you use Multisig features, you understand that the loss of the required number of keys or cosigner unavailability may result in permanent loss of access to your funds.
- You are responsible for coordinating with cosigners and maintaining the required number of accessible keys at all times.
5. No Financial, Investment, Tax, or Legal Advice
SatRyn does not provide and has never provided financial, investment, tax, legal, or any other form of professional advice. Specifically:
- No Content or feature of SatRyn constitutes a recommendation, endorsement, or solicitation to buy, sell, hold, or trade Bitcoin or any other asset.
- Exchange rate information displayed within the Application is provided for informational purposes only and should not be relied upon for financial decisions.
- Your use of SatRyn does not establish a fiduciary, advisory, or professional-client relationship of any kind.
- You should consult qualified professionals (financial advisors, tax professionals, attorneys) for guidance specific to your circumstances.
- Bitcoin may be subject to taxation in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for determining and fulfilling your tax obligations, including reporting requirements for capital gains, income, VAT/GST, and any other applicable taxes.

The Bitcoin network is a decentralized, open protocol that operates independently. SatRyn is not responsible for the operation, governance, security, or any changes to the Bitcoin protocol, including forks or consensus rule changes.
8.3 Apple iCloud
If you choose to enable encrypted iCloud backups, your data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM on your device before being uploaded to Apple’s iCloud.

References to Third-Party Services do not constitute endorsement, sponsorship, or affiliation. You access Third-Party Services at your own risk and should review their respective terms and privacy policies.
9. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy describes in detail how SatRyn handles (or rather, does not handle) your personal data. SatRyn is designed with privacy as a foundational principle. Key points include:
