3.1. Wombat offers a bundled and direct access to dApps and related features of the decentralized internet. In order to use the Services, the User downloads and installs the Wombat application (“Wombat App”) on a mobile phone. The Wombat App is compatible with the mobile operating system Android. The Services contain amongst others a browser function and a wallet function:

3.1.1. The browser function enables the User to view, browse and interact with publicly accessible websites. Browsing is possible at any time for both the traditional internet, the so called web 2.0, and the decentralized internet, the so called web 3.0. In case these websites are dApps, based on one of Wombat’s supported public Blockchains, Wombat also allows to login to the dApp and interact with the respective Blockchain. Wombat offers a preselection of dApps, which is based on content and user related reasons. A detailed investigation of dApps will not be carried out.

3.1.2. The wallet function enables the User to store his private keys (“Keys”), necessary to generate a signature on a public supported Blockchain or to initiate and verify activities and transactions in connection to a Blockchain. The Keys are primarily stored in the internal storage of the mobile phone. The storage of the Keys in the Wombat App is encrypted. The decryption is done by the User via pin code or fingerprint. For purposes of storing a backup copy of the Keys backup solutions in the form of trusted cloud storage services are available and shall be used by the User. The access to the cloud storage services is also encrypted by Wombat. The wallet function further allows the User to interact with public supported Blockchains, utilizing abovementioned signatures to trigger a Smart Contract execution or management of digital Tokens (“Token”). Wombat in particular enables the User to send and receive EOS Tokens. It is expressly stated that the wallet function does not allow to store or contain any digital assets or Tokens.

3.2. The staking of resources, like Tokens, that may be required for the use of dApps or other related functionalities of Blockchain Networks, is carried out by the Company.
