1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a binding agreement between you and the operator of AutoTrader ("AutoTrader", "we", "us"). By creating an account, connecting an exchange, or otherwise using the AutoTrader website, APIs, webhooks, or trading bots (together, the "Service"), you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, if higher) and legally capable of entering into contracts to use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. What the Service Is — and What It Is Not

AutoTrader is a software automation tool. It receives trading signals (from platform strategies or from TradingView alerts you configure yourself) and relays them as orders to your own cryptocurrency exchange account (Binance, MEXC, or Coinbase) using API keys or OAuth authorization that you provide.

AutoTrader is NOT a broker, dealer, exchange, custodian, wallet, money transmitter, payment processor, financial institution, investment adviser, portfolio manager, or fiduciary. We never hold, control, or have access to your funds. All assets remain at all times in your own exchange account, and all trades are executed by your exchange under your own exchange agreement.

We are not registered or licensed with any financial regulatory authority. The Service is a technical execution tool that acts solely on the configuration and instructions you set up.

3. No Investment Advice

Nothing in the Service — including strategies, signals, indicators, presets, backtest results, statistics, win rates, profit and loss figures, or any other content — constitutes investment, financial, legal, or tax advice, or a recommendation, solicitation, or offer to buy or sell any asset. All information is provided for informational purposes only.

You alone decide whether to create a bot, which strategy and pair to use, how much capital to allocate, and when to stop. You are solely responsible for evaluating the merits and risks of every decision you make with the Service, and you should consult a qualified professional advisor before trading.

4. Risk Disclosure

By using the Service you acknowledge and accept all of the following risks:

• Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile. Prices can move dramatically in seconds, and you can lose some or all of the capital you allocate.
• Automated trading executes orders without your real-time confirmation. Bots will keep trading according to their configuration until you pause or delete them.
• Signals may be wrong, late, missed, or duplicated. Software bugs, network failures, server downtime, queue delays, exchange outages, API rate limits, or maintenance windows can cause orders to execute late, at unexpected prices, partially, or not at all.
• Backtest results and historical performance are hypothetical, do not reflect real execution conditions (slippage, fees, liquidity, downtime), and are not indicative of future results.
• Exchanges may suspend trading pairs, freeze accounts, change APIs, or become insolvent. We have no control over your exchange.
• Regulatory treatment of cryptocurrency varies by jurisdiction and can change. It is your responsibility to ensure that using the Service is lawful where you live.
• You are solely responsible for reporting and paying any taxes arising from your trading activity.

5. Your Account and Security

You agree to provide accurate registration information, keep your credentials confidential, and enable and protect your two-factor authentication (2FA) device and backup codes. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately at contact@YOUR-DOMAIN.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

6. Exchange Accounts and API Keys

To use trading bots you must connect your own exchange account. By connecting an exchange and creating a bot, you expressly authorize AutoTrader to transmit orders to that exchange on your behalf according to your bot configuration, until you disconnect the exchange or pause or delete the bot.

• You must use API keys created for your own account, with trading permission only. We strongly recommend — and you agree — that withdrawal permissions must be disabled on any API key you connect.
• You are responsible for complying with the terms of service of your exchange and of TradingView or any other signal source you use.
• You can revoke access at any time by deleting the API key on your exchange or disconnecting it in the Service.
• We are not responsible for actions taken by your exchange, including rejected orders, fees, account restrictions, or losses of any kind.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• use the Service for any unlawful purpose, including money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions evasion, fraud, or market manipulation (such as spoofing, wash trading, or pump-and-dump schemes);
• use the Service if you are located in, or a resident of, a jurisdiction where such use is prohibited, or if you are subject to economic sanctions;
• attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other users’ accounts or data, or our infrastructure;
• probe, overload, disrupt, or bypass rate limits or security measures of the Service;
• reverse engineer, copy, resell, sublicense, or provide the Service to third parties as a service;
• submit forged, automated-abuse, or malicious webhook traffic.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that we reasonably believe violate this section, without prior notice.

8. Fees

The Service is currently provided free of charge. We may introduce fees or paid plans in the future; if we do, we will give you reasonable advance notice, and continued use after the notice period constitutes acceptance. Any fees charged by your exchange (trading fees, spreads, funding costs) are entirely yours and are unrelated to us.

9. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, strategies, and content (excluding your own data and configurations), is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial trading while these Terms are in effect.

10. Third-Party Services

The Service interoperates with third parties we do not control, including Binance, MEXC, Coinbase, TradingView, and Google (Firebase authentication). Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We make no warranty about, and accept no liability for, third-party services, their availability, their data, or their handling of your accounts or funds.

11. Availability, Changes, and Termination of the Service

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time, with or without notice. We do not guarantee any level of availability or uptime. We may pause signal processing or trading execution at any time, including for maintenance, security incidents, or suspected abuse.

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. Upon termination for any reason, your bots stop executing and you should also delete the API keys you created on your exchange. Sections 3, 4, and 12 through 16 survive termination.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT SIGNALS WILL BE ACCURATE OR TIMELY, THAT ORDERS WILL BE EXECUTED, OR THAT USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE PROFITABLE.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE (AND OUR OPERATORS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS) WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY TRADING LOSSES, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF FUNDS OR CRYPTOASSETS, LOSS OF DATA, OR LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE — INCLUDING LOSSES CAUSED BY EXECUTED, DELAYED, PARTIAL, DUPLICATED, OR MISSED ORDERS — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (USD 100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations of liability; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, such as liability for fraud or for intent or gross negligence where applicable law so provides.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms or of applicable law; (c) your trading activity and its outcomes; or (d) your violation of the terms of any exchange, TradingView, or other third-party service.

15. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the operator of the Service is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and any dispute will be submitted to the competent courts of that jurisdiction, except where mandatory consumer-protection law gives you the right to bring proceedings where you live.

Before filing any claim, you agree to first contact us at contact@YOUR-DOMAIN.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

16. General

• Changes to these Terms: we may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated version with a new "Last updated" date and, for material changes, notify you in the app or by email. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
• Severability: if any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force, and the unenforceable provision is replaced by an enforceable one that most closely reflects its intent.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
• Assignment: you may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of the Service.
• Entire agreement: these Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
