Last Updated: 16.03.2026
1. What Katz Wallet Is (and Is Not)
Katz Wallet is a non-custodial, self-hosted cryptocurrency wallet focused on the XRP Ledger ("XRPL"). The App enables you to:
- Generate or import XRPL-compatible wallets
- Store, encrypt, and manage your own private keys locally on your device
- View balances, NFTs, trust lines, AMM pools, and other XRPL data
- Send and receive XRP and XRPL-based tokens
- Interact with decentralized XRPL tools, including DEX interfaces, xApps, analytics dashboards, and NFT services provided by independent third parties
Katz Wallet does NOT:
- Store, hold, manage, back up, or access your private keys or secret phrase
- Control your Digital Assets or execute transactions on your behalf
- Custody assets, operate an exchange, hold user funds, or facilitate trades between users
- Recover your wallet or secret phrase if lost
- Provide investment, legal, or tax advice
You are solely responsible for securing your secret phrase, private keys, and device. "Digital Assets" means cryptocurrencies, tokens, NFTs, and other digital units supported by the App.
2. Privacy Policy
Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, available at katzwallet.com/privacy, which explains what data we do and do not collect. The Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into these Terms. If these Terms conflict with the Privacy Policy regarding privacy matters, the Privacy Policy shall prevail.
3. Eligibility
You may use the App only if:
- You are at least 18 years old, or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater.
- You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract.
- You are not prohibited from using the App under applicable law, including sanctions, export controls, and anti-money-laundering restrictions.
- You are not listed on any government-restricted, denied, sanctioned, or prohibited party list (including OFAC, UN, EU, or UK sanctions lists).
- You are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or a national or agent of any country or territory subject to a comprehensive embargo by the United States, European Union, or United Nations.
- You will use the App in full compliance with all applicable laws, including tax laws.
By using the App, you represent and warrant that these conditions remain true at all times.
4. Non-Custodial Nature; Your Responsibilities
Katz Wallet is entirely non-custodial:
- Private keys and secret phrases are generated and stored solely on your device, secured by hardware-backed storage where available.
- We do not store or have access to your keys, phrase, PIN, passcode, or wallet file.
- We cannot recover lost keys, phrases, or access to your wallet under any circumstances.
You are fully responsible for:
- Securely backing up your secret phrase offline in a safe, accessible location.
- Protecting your device with a strong PIN, password, and biometric locks, and keeping your OS updated.
- Ensuring no one gains physical or remote access to your unlocked device.
- Verifying all transaction details — including addresses, amounts, and network fees — before confirming.
If you lose your secret phrase or device, or if any unauthorized party obtains them, you may permanently and irrecoverably lose access to your Digital Assets. We cannot recover or reverse such loss.
5. Third-Party Services, xApps, DEX, NFT Tools, and Web Content
The App may display or allow access to independent third-party tools, including:
- XRPL xApps
- Decentralized exchanges (DEX)
- AMM interfaces
- NFT marketplaces
- Analytics dashboards, block explorers, and price feeds
- Fiat on-ramp / off-ramp services
- Third-party websites opened within the App's built-in browser
Important legal notice:
- Katz Wallet does not own, operate, control, or endorse any third-party service.
- All third-party services are independent and governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
- Your interactions with third-party services are entirely at your own risk.
- We do not guarantee the accuracy, safety, legality, availability, or reliability of any third-party content.
Katz Wallet cannot:
- Cancel, modify, freeze, or reverse third-party transactions.
- Provide support, dispute resolution, or refunds for third-party services.
- Verify or validate prices, balances, yields, liquidity, analytics, or token safety.
You must independently evaluate and decide whether to use any third-party service.
6. Transactions and Blockchain Networks
When you submit a transaction through the App:
- The transaction is created and signed locally on your device using your private key.
- The App broadcasts the signed transaction to the XRPL network or other supported blockchain.
- The blockchain processes and finalizes the transaction independently of Katz Wallet.
You understand and agree that:
- Blockchain transactions are irreversible once confirmed.
- We cannot cancel or reverse transactions.
- Network congestion, delays, forks, bugs, or failures are outside our control.
- Network fees (reserves, transaction costs) are set by the network, not by Katz Wallet.
- You must ensure you send assets to the correct address and on the correct network.
Katz Wallet is not responsible for:
- Transactions sent to the wrong address or network.
- Insufficient fees or reserve requirements.
- Lost, stuck, or failed transactions.
- Any loss resulting from network behavior, protocol errors, or protocol upgrades.
7. Fees and Revenue
Katz Wallet currently does not charge fees for basic wallet functions. However, blockchain networks may charge transaction fees or reserve requirements, and third-party services integrated into the App may charge their own fees, which we do not control.
Future changes:
We may introduce optional premium features, paid services, or revenue-sharing integrations in the future. If fees are introduced, they will be disclosed clearly within the App before any purchase or charge, and will apply only to future use — not retroactively.
You are solely responsible for all network fees, third-party fees, and any applicable taxes.
8. No Financial, Investment, Legal, or Tax Advice
All content in the App — including analytics, price data, Smart Money insights, charts, risk signals, wallet labels, trending tokens, or any AI-generated information — is provided for informational and educational purposes only.
Katz Wallet:
- Is not a bank, broker, exchange, or registered investment advisor.
- Does not recommend or advise the purchase, sale, staking, minting, or holding of any Digital Asset.
- Does not guarantee any profits, yields, airdrops, or outcomes of any kind.
You are solely responsible for all decisions you make regarding Digital Assets.
9. Taxes
You are solely responsible for determining what taxes apply to your Digital Asset activity, and for reporting and paying all applicable taxes to the relevant authorities. Katz Wallet does not calculate, track, or report taxes on your behalf.

20. California Users — CCPA Notice
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act ("CCPA") may provide you with additional rights regarding your personal information. Because Katz Wallet is a non-custodial application that does not collect personal information in the traditional sense, the majority of CCPA rights may not apply. However, to the extent any personal information is collected (such as crash reports or support communications), you have the right to:
- Know what personal information is collected, used, shared, or sold.
- Request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.
- Opt out of the sale of your personal information. We do not sell personal information.
- Non-discrimination for exercising any of these rights.
To exercise your CCPA rights, contact us at admin@katzwallet.com. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for full details on data practices.
21. Entire Agreement; Severability; Assignment
These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Katz Technologies LLC regarding the App and supersede all prior agreements or understandings.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
You may not assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of our right to do so later.
