LIABILITY DISCLAIMER
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, GOLDSTAR HEREBY DISCLAIMS TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER LAW ALL WARRANTIES WITH REGARD TO THE WEBSITE INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND/OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE OR NONINFRINGEMENT. THE WEBSITE IS PROVIDED “AS IS.” GOLDSTAR DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE WEBSITE WILL BE FREE OF ERRORS OR VIRUSES.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, GoldStar shall not be liable or responsible in any way to you for any losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses or other obligations arising in any way from the use of the website, including, but not limited to, the failure or interruption of the website, the unavailability or denial of access to the website, the lack of capacity of the website to display information, inaccurate or incomplete information displayed on the website, and any unauthorized access to or disclosure or use or inaccurate transmission of such information transmitted over the internet.
IN NO EVENT SHALL GOLDSTAR OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE WEBSITE REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY CLAIM THEREFORE IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE.
GoldStar shall use reasonable, good faith efforts to ascertain the fair market value of each asset in valuing the assets of the custodial account for recordkeeping and reporting purposes. Valuations will be obtained through utilization of various outside sources available to us and consideration of various relevant factors generally recognized as appropriate in the application of customary valuation methods.
In certain cases where fair market value is not readily available and we do not have a recent qualified independent appraisal, we may assign value based on our internal policies and procedures on the value of the asset, or we may require a current independent appraisal obtained by you. However, where assets are liquid or their value cannot be readily determined on either an established exchange or generally recognized market, the valuation is, by necessity, not a true market value and is merely an estimation of value within a broad range of values and its accuracy should not be relied upon for any other purposes because the precision with which a value is assigned is dependent on the nature of the asset and the cost effectiveness of pursuing a more comprehensive appraisal.
GoldStar does not assume responsibility for the accuracy in the valuation presented regarding the assets. We do not guarantee the results of the appraisal methods applied in developing value nor can we be held liable for valuations that GoldStar cannot determine on a recognized exchange or a generally standard market.
Fair Market Valuations for conversions must be obtained from an independent authorized individual acceptable to GoldStar for conversions conducted either internally or via transfer from a contra firm. Documentation is required to be dated within 2 weeks of the distribution. Statements and prior market values are not acceptable.

If delivered by mail, our Communications will be mailed to the last known address we have on record for you. Please ensure that you keep your primary mailing address up to date. If we send you paper documents, it will have no impact on your paperless enrollment.
Accessing Your Communications
We may deliver your Communications by any of the following means: (1) within goldstartrust.com, (2) to your designated email address, or (3) by requesting that you download a PDF file that contains the Communication.
If at any time we are unable to deliver email notifications to your email address:
