BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE SERVICES.
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding contract between you (“you,” “your,” or “User”) and Astral Trading, Inc. (“Astral,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms govern your access to and use of our websites, applications, and related products and services (collectively, the “Services”).
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use the Services.
Some features require you to create an account. You agree to provide accurate information and keep it current.
You are responsible for maintaining confidentiality of your credentials and all activity under your account.
(a) U.S.-Only. The Services are offered and intended for use only within the United States. Astral does not represent that the Services are appropriate, available, or lawful for access or use outside the United States.
(b) No International Offering. Any access to or use of the Services from outside the United States is unauthorized, is at your own risk, and constitutes a material breach of these Terms.
(c) No Obligation to Geo-Block. Astral may use reasonable methods to determine your approximate location (e.g., IP address, device settings, billing address signals). However, Astral does not guarantee the Services are inaccessible from outside the United States and has no obligation to implement any particular geo-blocking technology.
By accessing or using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age. By accessing or using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are located in the United States and that your access and use of the Services will comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
Astral may restrict, suspend, or terminate access and/or your account if it believes you are under the age of 18, if you are accessing or using the Services from outside the United States, or if you are otherwise in violation of these Terms.
Astral provides an information and analysis platform that may include charting, indicators, strategy building, backtesting/simulation, watchlists, alerts, and AI-enabled analysis tools. The Services function solely and exclusively as a software publisher of general market data, analytical tools, and informational content; the Services do not provide personalized investment advice or recommendations tailored to any individual user’s financial circumstances. If you choose to connect a Connected Account, the Services may also provide a technical feature that enables you to transmit Trade Instructions from the Services to a Connectivity Provider for delivery to your Broker. Astral does not accept orders, execute trades, clear transactions, or provide brokerage services.
The Services may be offered on free and paid plans. Paid features, pricing, and plan inclusions may change from time to time. Certain features may be offered as beta, preview, trial, early access, or limited-release features. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time.
While we aim to provide a reliable service and will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the Services, we do not guarantee uptime, availability, uninterrupted access, or that any feature will remain available. The Services may experience delays, outages, maintenance periods, or other interruptions. We do not provide any service level agreement unless expressly agreed in writing by Astral.
The Services and Content are provided for informational and educational purposes only. The Services are offered in the capacity of a publisher of general and regular information within the meaning of Section 202(a)(11)(D) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Astral does not provide investment, financial, legal, or tax advice. Nothing in the Services constitutes a recommendation, endorsement, solicitation, or offer to buy or sell any security, digital asset, or other instrument.
Astral is not registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 or any state equivalent, and is not registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Astral is not a member of FINRA or SIPC. Astral does not: (a) provide personalized investment recommendations or suitability-based advice; (b) exercise investment discretion over any user’s account or assets; (c) effect or facilitate securities transactions for the account of others; or (d) receive transaction-based compensation.
You are solely responsible for your investment decisions and actions. You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the User Content and Inputs you provide for use with the Services and AI Features.
Investing and trading involve risk, including loss of principal. Past performance is not indicative or predictive of future results. All Backtests, simulations, projections, or historical analyses are hypothetical and may not reflect real-world constraints (including fees, spreads, slippage, liquidity, latency, and execution quality). Actual results may differ materially.
Market data and other Content may be delayed, incomplete, inaccurate, or unavailable. We do not guarantee correctness, timeliness, or completeness.
If you enable a Connected Account, you may be able to transmit Trade Instructions through the Services to a Connectivity Provider for delivery to your Broker. Astral's role is limited to providing the Services and, if enabled by you, facilitating the electronic transmission of Trade Instructions. Astral does not accept orders, execute trades, route orders to exchanges, provide best execution, clear or settle transactions, custody assets, extend credit, or maintain customer accounts. Astral does not hold itself out as a broker, dealer, or exchange, and does not receive any compensation that is transaction-based, commission-based, or otherwise tied to the execution, volume, or value of securities transactions. Your Broker is solely responsible for order handling and execution, subject to and contingent upon such Broker’s status as a duly registered broker-dealer and FINRA member firm, and such Broker’s compliance with its own customer agreement, regulatory obligations, suitability and best-execution duties, and applicable FINRA and SEC rules. Your Broker is solely responsible for whether any instruction is accepted or rejected, the price and timing of any execution, partial fills, and any resulting positions, margin, fees, or account actions.
By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that live algorithmic trading has various risks and Astral shall not have any liability for any losses incurred through using the Services, such risks included, without limitation:
EVERY TIME YOU USE THE SERVICES YOU AGREE THAT IN ALL CASES ASTRAL BEARS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSSES INCURRED, AND OFFERS NO GUARANTEES OR EXPECTATIONS ON YOUR ALGORITHM PERFORMANCE OR STABILITY.
Your use of the Services does not create any advisory relationship, fiduciary duty, or agency relationship and Astral is not responsible for your decisions or losses. Astral owes no duty of loyalty, duty of care, or suitability obligation to any user under these Terms or by virtue of the user’s access to or use of the Services.
You may provide Input to AI Features. The Services may return Output based on Input. Input and Output are collectively “AI Content” and are included in “Content.”
By using AI Features and accepting these Terms, you acknowledge and agree that:
Output may vary for the same or similar Inputs, including over time.
Astral does not exercise investment discretion over any user’s account or assets. All Outputs and Trade Instructions are generated based on user-defined parameters, user-supplied inputs, and user-initiated actions. Astral does not independently select, recommend, or allocate securities or trading strategies for any user.
You agree not to (and not to attempt to):
The Services may display or rely on third-party content, market data, tools, integrations, links, or services. Astral does not control and is not responsible for third-party providers. Certain third-party providers may provide links to the Services. None of such links should be deemed to imply that Astral endorses the third-party providers or any content therein. Astral does not control and is not responsible or liable for any third-party provider or any content, advertising, products, or other materials on or available from such third-party provider. Access to any third-party provider is at your own risk and Astral will have no liability arising out of or related to such websites and/or their content or for any damages or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with any purchase, use of or reliance on any such content, goods, or services available on or through any such third-party provider.
Certain market data may be subject to additional vendor or exchange rules (including redistribution/display restrictions and professional use rules). You agree to comply with any terms presented to you.
If you connect third-party services (including Connectivity Providers), you authorize Astral to access and use the data and permissions you grant, consistent with these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you connect a Broker through a Connectivity Provider and enable order-transmission functionality, you authorize Astral to transmit Trade Instructions generated through your use of the Services (including through your strategies and settings) to the Connectivity Provider for delivery to your Broker. You are responsible for reviewing your configurations, monitoring your Connected Account, and ensuring your Connected Account is properly funded and eligible to trade. Astral does not execute trades, custody assets, or provide brokerage services.
Connectivity Providers and Brokers are third parties and your use of them is subject to their separate terms, policies, and procedures. Astral does not control and is not responsible for any Connectivity Provider or Broker, including their systems, outages, order-handling rules, eligibility determinations, risk controls, margin/liquidation policies, or any actions or omissions by them. Astral makes no guarantee that any Trade Instruction will be received, accepted, processed, executed, modified, or cancelled by any Broker or Connectivity Provider.
Except for User Content, Astral owns all right, title, and interest in and to the Services and all Content made available through the Services, including all software, user interfaces, designs, models, algorithms, workflows, analytics, templates, and datasets (excluding User Content contained therein). Astral reserves all rights not expressly granted.
You retain ownership of your User Content, subject to the licenses granted in these Terms.
You grant Astral a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable (to our service providers), transferable license to host, store, reproduce, process, modify (for technical purposes), display, and otherwise use your User Content as reasonably necessary to: (a) provide, maintain, personalize, and secure the Services; (b) troubleshoot, prevent abuse/fraud, enforce these Terms, and comply with law; and (c) improve and develop the Services and AI Features (including model evaluation, tuning, safety, and development of new products and services), subject to the Privacy Policy and applicable law.

Nothing in this Section limits Astral's rights to use De-Identified Data under this Section 8.5.
Certain features of the Services may require payment ("Paid Services"). Fees, plan features, billing frequency, and any applicable trial terms will be described at checkout or in your account settings. Unless otherwise stated, fees are payable in U.S. dollars.
Payments for Paid Services may be processed by a third-party payment processor (for example, Stripe). You authorize Astral and our payment processor to charge your selected payment method for all fees, applicable taxes, and any other charges you authorize. Astral does not store complete payment card details; payment information is handled by the payment processor subject to its terms.
Paid Services are billed in advance on a recurring basis (for example, monthly or annually) unless otherwise disclosed at checkout. Your subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel before the renewal date. By purchasing a subscription, you authorize recurring charges until you cancel.
If you enroll in a free trial or promotional offer, your access to Paid Services may begin immediately and will continue for the stated trial period. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, your trial may automatically convert into a paid subscription, and you authorize Astral and our payment processor to charge your payment method at the then-current rate for the selected plan (plus applicable taxes) at the end of the trial period.
You may cancel your subscription through your account settings (if available) or through any other cancellation method we make available within the Services. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the then-current billing period unless otherwise stated at checkout. Except as expressly stated in these Terms, you will not receive a refund or credit for any remaining time in your current billing period.
If you upgrade, downgrade, or add paid add-ons, the change may take effect immediately (or at the next billing cycle) as disclosed at the time of the change. We may charge the new rate, including any prorated amounts, as disclosed at checkout or in-product. Except where required by law, we do not provide refunds or credits for partial periods, plan changes, or unused time.
Fees are exclusive of applicable taxes unless otherwise stated. Where required, Astral may collect taxes (including sales tax) and you agree to pay any applicable taxes associated with your purchase.
Except where required by law or expressly stated by Astral in writing at the time of purchase:
If a payment is not successfully processed (for example, due to expiration or insufficient funds), we may retry the charge, and we may suspend or downgrade your access to Paid Services until payment is received. We may use third parties to process payments and manage delinquent accounts.
If you purchase a subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play, billing, renewals, cancellations, and refunds are handled by the applicable store and are subject to that store's terms and policies.
We may change our fees, plan features, or available plans from time to time. If we make a material change to subscription pricing, we will provide notice through the Services and/or by other reasonable means, and the change will take effect no earlier than the next billing cycle unless otherwise required or permitted by law.
Astral may display advertisements or promotional content within the Services, including contextual or interest-based ads where permitted. We may measure ad performance and attribution subject to applicable law and as disclosed in the Privacy Policy.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services or your account at any time if we believe you violated these Terms, pose a risk to the Services or others, or for operational/security reasons. You may stop using the Services at any time.
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ASTRAL DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY CONTENT (INCLUDING AI CONTENT OR OUTPUTS) WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR TIMELY. IN NO EVENT WILL ASTRAL, ITS AFFILIATES, SUBSIDIARIES, OR LICENSOR BE LIABLE (FOR INTERRUPTION OF USE OR LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF DATA, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION).
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
(a) ASTRAL WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUES, DATA, OR GOODWILL; AND
(b) ASTRAL’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (I) $100 OR (II) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO ASTRAL FOR THE SERVICES IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM (IF ANY).
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Astral and its officers, directors, employees, and affiliates from and against claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Services, (b) your User Content, or (c) your violation of these Terms or applicable law. This includes any error in coding, transmission, outages or any other failure whether or not foreseeable and consequential damage resulting from same.
Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute informally.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
(a) Initial Dispute Resolution. You agree that before taking any formal legal action under these Terms, You shall provide written notice to Astral of the specific issue(s) in dispute, including reference to the relevant provision(s) of the Terms which are allegedly being breached. Within thirty (30) days after such notice, representatives of each of the parties shall hold at least one meeting (in person or by video- or tele-conference) for the purpose of attempting, in good faith, to resolve the dispute.
(b) Binding Arbitration. If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of 30 days from the time informal dispute resolution begins under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision set forth in Section 15.2(a), then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance, and breach), the parties' relationship with each other and/or Your use of Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with the provisions of its Streamlined Arbitration and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class or representative actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, and any dispute regarding the payment of JAMS administrative or arbitrator fees (including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment). The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The parties agree that the arbitrator may allow the filing of dispositive motions if they are likely to efficiently resolve or narrow issues in dispute. The arbitrator's award shall be in writing and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.
(c) Arbitration Fees. The party initiating arbitration is responsible for paying the costs of filing, and the arbitrator’s fees will be shared equally between the parties. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.
(d) Location. Arbitration shall take place in Delaware, or another location mutually agreed to by the parties.
You and Astral agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.
Either party may seek injunctive relief for misuse of intellectual property or unauthorized access/security issues.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of laws principles. If arbitration does not apply, exclusive venue will be in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to jurisdiction there.
We may modify the Services and these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice by updating the effective date and/or via in-app notice. Your continued use after changes become effective constitutes acceptance.
You consent to receive communications from us electronically (e.g., email, SMS, or in-app notices). Electronic notices satisfy legal notice requirements.
These Terms and any referenced policies (Privacy Policy, Additional Disclosures) are the entire agreement regarding the Services.
If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect.
You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign these terms to an affiliate or subsidiary or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or asset sale.
The failure of either party to require the performance of any obligation under these Terms, or the waiver by either party of any breach hereunder, shall not prevent a subsequent enforcement of such obligation or constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach.
Each Party will be excused from performance for any period during which, and to the extent that, it or its affiliate(s) is prevented from performing any obligation or service, in whole or in part, as a result of causes beyond its reasonable control, and without its fault or negligence including, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, epidemics, communication line failures, and power failures.
