Terms of Service

Last updated: July 8, 2026

The most important term, in plain language: IdleAlpha is a market research and analytics platform. It is not a financial advisor, broker, or fiduciary. Nothing on this platform — including scores, signals, research notes, strategy trackers, or historical analyses — is investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security. You make your own decisions.

1. The Service

IdleAlpha provides market data visualizations, quantitative research tools, scorecards, paper-traded strategy tracking, and research notes for informational and educational purposes. Data is sourced from third-party providers and may contain errors, gaps, or delays; we work to correct defects and publish our methodology, but we do not warrant accuracy, completeness, or timeliness.

2. No Investment Advice

Content on IdleAlpha is general research, not individualized advice. It does not consider your objectives, finances, or risk tolerance. Past performance — including backtested and paper-traded performance — is not indicative of future results. Backtested results in particular have inherent limitations and are prepared with the benefit of hindsight. Consult a licensed financial advisor before making investment decisions.

3. Accounts

You are responsible for your account credentials and for activity under your account. You must provide a valid email address. We may suspend accounts that abuse the service, attempt to scrape or resell data, or interfere with other users.

4. Subscriptions, Billing, and Refunds

Paid subscriptions are billed through Stripe on a recurring basis at the price shown at checkout. You can cancel at any time from your profile; cancellation stops future renewals and you keep access through the end of the period you paid for. If you are unsatisfied within 7 days of your first payment, contact support for a full refund. Prices may change with notice; changes apply from your next renewal.

5. Acceptable Use

You may not: redistribute, resell, or systematically scrape platform data or content; reverse-engineer the service; use the service to violate any law; or misrepresent IdleAlpha content as personalized advice when sharing it.

6. Intellectual Property

The platform, its methodology descriptions, scores, and research notes are owned by IdleAlpha. Your subscription grants a personal, non-transferable license to use them for your own research.

7. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, IdleAlpha is not liable for any trading or investment losses, lost profits, or indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from use of the service, including reliance on any data, score, or research note. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim.

8. Changes

We may update these terms; material changes will be announced on the platform or by email. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
