Using the site
01Who we are and what this website is
1.1 This website, asicminerdistribution.com, is operated by ASICMiner Distribution LLC, a limited liability company organised under the laws of the State of Delaware, USA ("we", "us"). It presents cryptocurrency mining hardware that we supply, describes our logistics and advisory services, publishes articles about mining hardware and its deployment, offers tools that help you compare and shortlist models, and lets you send us an inquiry.
1.2 We are a distributor of hardware. We do not operate the machines we sell, we do not offer investment products, and we do not run a marketplace on which third parties sell. Everything offered on this website is offered by us.
1.3 Our company details, our contact addresses and the list of all legal documents are on the Legal notice page.
02Acceptance and changes
2.1 By using this website you accept these terms. Using the website means visiting any page of it, using any tool on it or sending us anything through it. If you do not accept these terms, do not use the website.
2.2 We may change these terms at any time. The version published at the time of your visit applies to that visit, and the version published at the time you submit an inquiry applies to that inquiry. The date at the top of this page shows the last change. Where a change materially reduces your rights, we show the new date prominently for a period after the change. We hold no account for you and do not notify visitors individually.
2.3 If you use this website on behalf of a company or another legal entity, you confirm that you are authorised to accept these terms for it, and "you" then means the entity as well as the person.
2.4 This website is not directed at anyone under eighteen years of age. By using it you confirm that you are an adult.
2.5 Business Days in these terms are days other than Saturday, Sunday and public holidays in the State of Delaware, USA.
03No offer, no prices
3.1 Nothing on this website is an offer to sell. Listings, specifications, images, condition descriptions, availability indications and every figure we show are information only and may change without notice.
3.2 We publish no prices. Every price is given in a written quote for a stated quantity, condition, Incoterm and destination and is valid only for the period stated in the quote. "Price on request" describes how we work; it is not a promise that a quote will be issued or that a model is available.
3.3 A contract for the purchase of hardware is formed only as described in the Terms of Sale: when you accept a quote and we confirm your order in writing. Nothing you do on this website, including submitting an inquiry, reserves stock or allocation.
3.4 Availability shown on the website is a snapshot. A model may be unavailable at the time you ask, or available only in another condition or quantity.
04The inquiry list and the tools
4.1 The inquiry list lets you collect models and quantities and send them to us with your contact details. Submitting the list is a request for a quote. It creates no obligation on either side and reserves no stock or allocation.
4.2 The list is stored in your browser until you submit or clear it and is not transmitted to us before you submit it. If you share the list as a link, the link contains the models and quantities in its address; anyone who opens the link sees them, and nothing is sent to us by opening it.
4.3 For used hardware the list applies the minimum quantity shown on the product pages, one hundred units per model. Other quantities can be discussed with us; the quote decides.
4.4 You must give accurate contact details and a truthful destination country. We use the destination to check whether we can supply you, and an inaccurate destination may lead to a quote we cannot honour or to a cancelled order.
4.5 Optional preferences in the form, such as your contact channel, your Incoterm and your timeline, help us answer precisely. They bind neither side and can be changed in the quote.
4.6 Text, messages and documents that the website generates from your list, including a printed or saved version, are generated in your browser. They are your documents, not a quote, and carry no price.
4.7 The website offers tools that help you shortlist hardware: a running cost calculator, a side by side comparison of up to three models, a list of recently viewed models, sorting and filtering, shareable links and print views. They are aids, nothing more, and may be changed, suspended or removed at any time without notice.
4.8 The running cost calculator multiplies the manufacturer rated power of a model by twenty four hours and by the electricity price you enter. It ignores cooling overhead, power supply losses, curtailment, downtime, fees and taxes, and makes no revenue assumption. The result illustrates energy cost at rated power; it is not a forecast, a quote or advice. The currency switch changes the label only and converts nothing.
4.9 The comparison shows manufacturer reference values side by side and marks the best value in a row where values are comparable. Values of different algorithms are not comparable. The comparison does not rank models for your situation and is not a recommendation.
4.10 Your comparison selection, recently viewed models, electricity price, currency, sorting and view preference are stored in your browser only, as described in the Privacy Policy. We do not see them, and you can clear them at any time. A shared link encodes the selection in its address; models that are no longer listed are omitted when the link is opened.
05Product information
5.1 Hashrate, power, efficiency, noise and environmental figures on this website are the manufacturer's reference values. Actual performance varies between units, batches, firmware versions and operating conditions. For a purchase, the figures in the quote are the ones that bind us.
5.2 Product images are representative. The image shown for a model may be of a closely related model from the same family, and colour, labels, packaging and minor details may differ from what you receive.
5.3 Manufacturer and product names on this website belong to their owners and are used only to identify the products we supply; section 8 of the Legal notice applies.
5.4 Used hardware is described as used, never as refurbished. What used means and which cover applies is set out in the Terms of Sale and on the Before you order page.
5.5 Cooling routes, site requirements and equipment lists on the website describe what a typical installation needs. They are not an engineering specification for your site; your electrician, cooling contractor or engineer decides what your site needs.
06Articles
6.1 The articles on this website are general information about mining hardware, deployment, logistics and procurement. They reflect our experience and our reading of public sources at the time of writing. They are not investment, financial, tax, legal or engineering advice, and not a recommendation to buy any product or to mine any coin.
6.2 Market conditions, network difficulty, coin prices, electricity prices, regulation and manufacturer line-ups change quickly, and an article may be out of date without notice. A "last updated" date refers to the article text, not to the market data it discusses.
6.3 Every calculation, example and figure in an article is an illustration. We make no representation about mining profitability, payback periods or returns.
6.4 Before you act on anything on this website, check it against current sources and, where appropriate, obtain advice from a qualified professional who knows your circumstances.
6.5 Where an article quotes or refers to a public source, the source is named or linked, and the quoted material remains the property of its owner.
07Permitted use
7.1 You may browse this website, read its content, use the tools and the inquiry list, print pages for your own reference, share links to pages and contact us for your own information and for a possible purchase.
7.2 Without our written permission you may not: copy, scrape, crawl or extract content, product data or images in bulk or by automated means, other than the indexing that search engines perform in the ordinary way; use content from this website to train, fine-tune or evaluate a machine learning model; reproduce, republish, sell or redistribute content from this website; remove or alter a notice of ownership; use the forms to send spam, marketing, unlawful content or content that infringes the rights of others; submit false contact details or impersonate another person or company; probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the website or its infrastructure, interfere with its operation or circumvent a protection measure; or use the website in a way that breaches applicable law, including export control and sanctions law.
7.3 We may block, restrict or terminate access for anyone who breaches these terms, without notice and without liability, and we may report unlawful conduct to the authorities.
7.4 Limited quotation of our articles for commentary or review, with attribution and a link to the source page, is permitted.
08Content you send us
8.1 When you send us a message, an inquiry, a photograph, a log extract, a test result, a document or other material, through the website, by email or through a messaging service, you keep ownership of it. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, copy, forward and use it for the purpose for which you sent it, including to answer you, to prepare a quote, to handle an order or a claim, to route a warranty claim to the manufacturer and to keep the records the law requires.
8.2 You confirm that you have the right to send us the material, that it does not infringe the rights of a third party and that it contains no personal data of other people beyond what the purpose requires. Where it contains data of other people, you confirm that you may share it and have informed them.
8.3 We do not publish material you send us, do not use it for marketing and do not use it outside the purpose for which you sent it, unless you agree in writing. Feedback and suggestions about the website or our services may be used by us without restriction and without compensation.
8.4 We are not obliged to keep material beyond the retention periods in the Privacy Policy and may delete it after the purpose is fulfilled.
09Intellectual property and copyright complaints
9.1 The content of this website, including texts, articles, product descriptions, photographs, illustrations, graphics, the logo, the ASICMiner Distribution name and the design and code of the site, is our property or is used with permission and is protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. Our trademarks and their permitted use are set out in the Legal notice.
9.2 We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive licence to access and view the website, to use its tools and to print or save pages for your own reference in connection with a possible purchase. No other right is granted, and no right is granted by implication.
9.3 Product images and specifications that originate from manufacturer material remain the property of the manufacturer concerned and are used to present the products we supply.
9.4 You may link to pages of this website, provided the link is fair and lawful, does not suggest an association or endorsement that does not exist and does not present our content as your own, including by framing or embedding. We may withdraw the permission to link at any time.
9.5 If you believe that content on this website infringes a copyright or another right that you own or represent, write to info@asicminerdistribution.com with "Copyright complaint" in the subject line and give us: the address of the page and a description of the material concerned; a description of the work you say is infringed and evidence that you own it or act for the owner; your name, company, address, email address and, where you have one, a telephone number; a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the owner, its agent or the law; a statement, under penalty of perjury where the law of your place requires it, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorised to act for the owner; and your physical or electronic signature.
9.6 We acknowledge a complete notice, review it and remove or disable access to the material where the complaint appears justified, usually within ten Business Days. We may inform the person who supplied the material of the complaint and of your identity where the law requires or allows it, and we may reinstate material where that person provides a justified counter notice. A person who knowingly makes a false complaint or a false counter notice is liable for the resulting damage.
10Third party services and communications
10.1 This website links to third party websites and services. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, their availability or their handling of your data. A link is not an endorsement.
10.2 Where you contact us through a messaging service or your email application, the terms and the privacy policy of that service apply to it in addition to our Privacy Policy. A message that the website prepares for such a service reaches us only when you send it.
10.3 We communicate by email and, where you choose it, through a messaging service. Messages through a messaging service are for convenience. A quote, an order, an order confirmation and any notice under the Terms of Sale are valid only in writing, and writing means email or a document accepted through an electronic signature service.
10.4 We send no newsletters and no marketing emails. Where you have sent us an inquiry, we may contact you about it, about a quote or order that follows from it, and about a warranty, safety or legal matter that concerns hardware you bought.
10.5 By giving us your email address you agree that we may send the documents a sale requires, such as quotes, order confirmations, invoices and shipping documents, by email, and that they are valid in that form.
10.6 Messages that do not come from the domain asicminerdistribution.com do not come from us. We never ask for payment through a messaging service alone, and we confirm bank and wallet details by email.
11Export control and sanctions
11.1 The hardware we supply is subject to export control and sanctions laws, including those of the United States. We do not supply to jurisdictions or parties where doing so would violate applicable law, and we check every destination before we quote. What we check and which destinations we do not serve is set out on the Before you order page.
11.2 By sending us an inquiry you confirm that you are not, and are not acting for, a person or entity subject to sanctions, and that the hardware is not intended for a sanctioned jurisdiction or a prohibited end use.
12Availability, liability and indemnity
12.1 We aim to keep this website available and accurate, but we do not guarantee that it is available without interruption, free of errors or harmful components, or complete, accurate and current at all times. We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of it at any time without notice.
12.2 To the extent permitted by law, the website, its tools and its content are provided "as is" and "as available", without any warranty, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. Nothing on this website is a representation that a model is in stock, that a quote will be issued or that a destination can be served.
12.3 Nothing in these terms limits liability for fraud, for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for wilful misconduct or for any other liability that cannot be limited by law.
12.4 Subject to clause 12.3 and to the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website, its tools or its content, including indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, mining rewards or data, and the cost of substitute goods or services, however arising, including loss arising from reliance on a calculation, a comparison or an article. Liability in connection with a purchase of hardware is governed exclusively by the Terms of Sale.
12.5 You will indemnify us against claims, losses and costs, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your breach of clause 7, 8 or 11 or from material you send us that infringes the rights of a third party or breaches applicable law.
13Privacy and accessibility
13.1 How we collect and use personal data through this website, which service providers are involved, how long we keep data and which rights you have is set out in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms. The website sets no advertising or tracking cookies and shows no cookie banner; the Privacy Policy describes what it stores in your browser and which services it uses.
13.2 This website is built to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 at level AA: pages work with a keyboard alone, text and controls have sufficient contrast, images that carry meaning have text alternatives, forms have labels and report errors in text, and the site respects a preference for reduced motion.
13.3 If you encounter a barrier on this website, write to info@asicminerdistribution.com and tell us the page and the problem. We answer within ten Business Days and fix what we can. Where you need information from this website in another format, tell us and we provide it where we reasonably can.
14Governing law, disputes and general
14.1 These terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with this website, including non contractual disputes, are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to its conflict of law rules.
14.2 A dispute that the parties cannot resolve by discussion within forty Business Days of a written notice is finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution of the American Arbitration Association under its International Arbitration Rules, before one arbitrator, seated in Wilmington, Delaware, USA, in the English language, with the International Expedited Procedures applying where the rules so provide. Either party may seek interim or injunctive relief in any competent court. To the extent permitted by law, each party waives any right to a trial by jury and to participate in a class or representative proceeding.
14.3 Where mandatory law of your place of residence gives you the right to bring a claim before the courts of that place, that right remains unaffected.
14.4 If a provision of these terms is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder is unaffected, and the invalid provision is replaced by a valid one that comes closest to its purpose. A failure or delay in exercising a right is not a waiver of it.
14.5 You may not assign your rights under these terms. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a transfer of our business.
14.6 These terms, together with the Privacy Policy and, for a purchase, the Terms of Sale, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding this website. The Before you order page and the Legal notice explain those documents and our practice; where they differ from the Terms of Sale, the Terms of Sale apply.
14.7 These terms are written in English. Where we provide a translation for convenience, the English version prevails. We keep a copy of each version and provide it on request.
