1. Description of Service

1.1 General Overview. The Tradury (“The Tradury,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides an online educational platform and community focused on financial markets, including equities, options, cryptocurrency and digital assets, foreign exchange, and low-priced or micro-capitalization securities (the “Service”). The Service may include, without limitation: (a) private and public forums, chatrooms, and group channels hosted on Discord or similar platforms; (b) alerts, commentary, watchlists, and educational content relating to financial markets; (c) classes, webinars, written publications, and other learning resources, including the website at tradury.com; (d) one-on-one instructional coaching sessions; and (e) access to moderators, community leaders, or representatives who may provide informal commentary.

1.2 Educational Purpose. The Service and all content provided are strictly for educational and informational purposes. The Tradury is not registered as an investment adviser, broker-dealer, commodity trading advisor, or futures commission merchant, and does not provide personalized investment, financial, tax, or legal advice.

1.3 Coaching Sessions. One-on-one coaching sessions are instructional in nature and are limited to general education regarding trading mechanics, terminology, platform operation, charting methods, risk-management frameworks, and trading psychology. Coaching does not include personalized investment recommendations, suitability analysis, portfolio review, or discretionary management of any account. Any instrument referenced during a coaching session is presented solely as a teaching example.

1.4 No Account Access. The Tradury will never request, and you must never provide, brokerage or exchange login credentials, application programming interface keys carrying trading or withdrawal permissions, private keys, wallet seed phrases, or multi-factor authentication codes. Any person requesting such information, including any person purporting to represent The Tradury, should be treated as fraudulent and reported to us immediately.

1.5 Scope of Access. The Service is intended solely for individual users who are members of The Tradury community. Redistribution, commercial exploitation, or resale of the Service or its content is prohibited without prior written authorization.

17.5 Hypothetical Results. Any discussion of trades, results, or performance may involve simulated or hypothetical outcomes that differ materially from actual results.

17.6 Third-Party Platforms. The Service operates on and alongside third-party platforms, including Discord. The Tradury does not control such platforms and is not liable for any outage, data incident, policy change, or account action taken by them. Your use of Discord is separately governed by Discord’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

18. Activities of Personnel

18.1 Independent Trading. The Tradury personnel, including its owner, employees, contractors, and moderators, may engage in personal trading or investment activities that may or may not align with commentary or educational content provided in the Service, and may enter or exit positions before, at the same time as, or after any related commentary is published.

18.2 No Duty of Disclosure. The Tradury personnel are not required to disclose their personal trading activities, positions, or strategies, and are under no obligation to notify members when a position is closed or when a previously expressed view has changed.

18.3 No Manipulative Practices. The Tradury and its personnel shall not engage in manipulative, deceptive, or fraudulent trading practices, or in conduct intended to create a false or misleading appearance of market activity.

Such relationships will be disclosed clearly and conspicuously where required by the FTC Endorsement Guides, 16 C.F.R. Part 255.

18.5 Affiliated Businesses. The owner of The Tradury operates other trading-related businesses. Content within the Service may reference or promote those businesses.

18.6 Waiver of Claims. By using the Service, you waive and release any claims arising from or related to the independent trading activities of The Tradury personnel.

19. Investments and Results

19.1 High Risk of Loss. Trading securities, options, futures, digital assets, foreign exchange, or other financial instruments involves substantial risk and is not suitable for all investors. You should not trade unless you can sustain the risk of losing your entire investment. In certain instruments, losses may exceed the amount originally invested.

19.2 No Guarantee. The Tradury makes no guarantee of profitability, success, or favorable outcomes.

19.3 Market Factors. Trading outcomes are influenced by multiple factors, including liquidity, volatility, execution delays, and unexpected market conditions.

19.4 Options. Options trading is speculative and carries a high degree of risk. Options may expire worthless, resulting in the total loss of premium paid, and uncovered option writing exposes the writer to theoretically unlimited loss. Before trading options you should review the Options Clearing Corporation disclosure document, Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options.

19.5 Digital Assets. Cryptocurrency and other digital assets are highly volatile and may become worthless. Exchanges and custodians may fail, suspend withdrawals, be compromised, or become insolvent. Digital asset holdings are generally not insured by the FDIC or SIPC, and the regulatory classification of many digital assets remains unsettled.

19.6 Foreign Exchange. Retail foreign exchange trading involves significant leverage. Leverage magnifies both gains and losses, and small adverse movements may result in losses exceeding your deposited funds.

19.7 Low-Priced Securities. Penny stocks and micro-capitalization securities are frequently illiquid, thinly traded, subject to wide bid-ask spreads, and vulnerable to manipulation. You may be unable to exit a position at any price, and publicly available information regarding such issuers is often limited or unreliable.

19.8 Margin. Trading on margin may result in losses exceeding account equity. You may be subject to margin calls requiring immediate deposit of additional funds, and positions may be liquidated without your consent.

19.9 CFTC Rule 4.41 Disclaimer. Hypothetical or simulated performance results have inherent limitations and do not represent actual trading performance. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. Hypothetical results are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight and do not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading.

20. General Terms

20.1 Force Majeure. The Tradury shall not be liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, acts of government, platform outages (e.g., Discord), exchange outages, or changes in law.

20.2 Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, it shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to render it enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force.

20.3 Headings. Section titles and headings are for convenience only and have no legal effect.

20.4 Construction Against Drafter. These Terms shall not be construed against the drafter, regardless of which party authored them.

20.5 Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the complete agreement between you and The Tradury regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements or understandings.

20.6 Assignment. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without prior written consent. The Tradury may assign its rights and obligations freely.

20.7 No Waiver. The Tradury’s failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or of any other provision.

20.8 Survival. Provisions relating to confidentiality, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, and governing law survive termination of these Terms.

20.9 Export Controls and Sanctions. You represent that you are not located in, or affiliated with, any country or person subject to U.S. trade sanctions (including OFAC restrictions). You agree not to use the Service in violation of U.S. export control laws.

20.10 Event Media Release. By attending live or virtual events hosted by The Tradury, you consent to being photographed, recorded, or filmed, and grant The Tradury the right to use such media for educational or promotional purposes.

20.11 Notices. All legal notices to The Tradury shall be sent by email to [email protected]. Notices to you may be delivered via email, Discord announcements, or other reasonable means.

BY JOINING THE DISCORD SERVER OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING THE BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN SECTION 14.
