- Taxes and fees. Where applicable, taxes or payment-provider fees may apply. Any such amounts are your responsibility unless stated otherwise.
4) Refund Policy (Conditional)

- Proof and verification. You agree to provide reasonable evidence upon request (for example, dated logs, screenshots, checklists, notes, or other documentation). We may request additional information to verify compliance.

5) Intellectual Property and Content Use
- Ownership. Unless otherwise stated, all Website content (including text, layout, branding, and paid content) is owned by or licensed to us and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
- Limited license. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Website for your personal, non-commercial purposes while you comply with these Terms.

6) No Guarantees; Disclaimer of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- The Website and all content are provided “as is” and “as available.”
- We make no warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness, or non-infringement.
- We do not guarantee that the Website will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of harmful components.
7) Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- No liability for investment outcomes. We are not liable for any losses, damages, or costs arising from your investment decisions or from reliance on Website content (free or paid).
- No indirect damages. We will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost savings, loss of data, or business interruption.
- Cap on liability. If liability is found despite the above, our total liability for any claim related to the Website or subscription will not exceed the amount you paid to us for the subscription during the period relevant to the claim (or, if you paid nothing, then zero).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in that case, these limitations apply to the greatest extent permitted.
8) Third-Party Links and Services
The Website may reference or link to third-party websites, tools, brokers, exchanges, payment systems, or other services. We do not control them and are not responsible for:
- their content or accuracy,
- their privacy practices,
- their terms, fees, outages, or security.
Your use of third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms and policies.
9) Termination and Suspension
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access to the Website or paid content (with or without notice) if we believe you:
- violated these Terms,
- engaged in fraud or abuse,
- attempted to circumvent access controls,
- used the Website in a way that could cause harm to us, other users, or third parties.
Termination may result in loss of access to paid content. Refunds, if any, will be handled under the Refund Policy section.
10) Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Effective date” above. Your continued use of the Website after the effective date of updated Terms means you accept the updated Terms.
11) Governing Law and Dispute Resolution (Placeholder)
Because legal requirements vary by country/state, you may want to specify:
- the governing law (jurisdiction), and
- the dispute resolution process (courts, arbitration, venue).
If you tell me your country/state (or the legal jurisdiction you want), I can insert a precise governing-law and venue clause. Until then, you can treat this section as a placeholder to be completed.
12) Contact
For general questions about the Website or these Terms, use the contact method published on the Website (if available).
For billing issues or payment data questions, you should also contact the third-party payment provider used for subscription processing.
