These Terms of Service are entered into by and between the undersigned (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and EDGE, and its affiliates. These Terms, and the Privacy Policy located at https://www.marketstructureedge.com/PrivacyPolicy, which is hereby incorporated by reference comprise the entire agreement (this “Agreement”) between the parties, and govern your access to and use of the Services.

By accessing and using the Services, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. DO NOT ACCESS THE ServiceS OR USE THE ServiceS IN ANY WAY IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT.

1. REVISIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT

We may revise and update these Terms from time to time, and will post the updated Terms to the Site. Unless otherwise stated in the amended version of these Terms, any changes to these Terms will apply immediately upon posting. We are not obligated to provide you with notice of any changes. Your continued use of the Services will constitute your agreement to any new provisions within the revised Terms.

2. GENERAL
   • Conflict. These Terms prevail over any of User’s general terms and conditions regardless whether or when User has submitted its request for proposal, order, or such terms. Provision of services to User does not constitute acceptance of any of User’s terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these Terms.
   • Consideration. You understand and agree that these Terms are entered into in consideration of their use of the Services and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.
3. • Services subject to change. The Services are subject to change at any time. EDGE is continually looking to improve the Services but if you are at any time dissatisfied with the Services, the sole remedy is to discontinue use of the Services.

3. SERVICES

The Services are a Software-as-a-Service web platform offering T+1 market-structure metrics intended to aid delivery of superior risk-adjusted returns in US National Market System stocks by providing information that incorporates market structure, or the rules and mechanics behind trading. Key metrics include a measure of Demand from investors and traders called Market Structure Sentiment™, and Supply, or Short Volume, by ticker symbol, and Volatility, Key Behavior, and $/Trade as a liquidity measure, among other metrics. In addition, Market Structure Sentiment™ for S&P 500 (data licensed from S&P Global Inc.) stocks called Broad Market Sentiment offers a broad, predictive risk-management tool around short-term market moves that if missed lead to volatility-degraded results. The web-based platform powers trading and investing decisions by highlighting Supply/Demand imbalances with simple graphical views.  We shall provide the Services in accordance with these Terms.

4. USE OF THE SERVICES

On the condition that you comply with all your obligations under these Terms (including your payment obligations), EDGE grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the Services.

6. NO INVESTMENT ADVICE

The Services and Site may consist, in whole or in part, of a financial data and analysis tool and they are intended for informational purposes only, and do not in any way constitute an offer to sell or buy any securities and are not intended to be exclusively relied upon in connection with any offer or sale of securities. No investment or other advice is intended and nothing in the Services is to be deemed a recommendation by EDGE, or its affiliates, that a user should buy, sell or hold any security or other investment or that such user pursue any investment style or strategy. EDGE does not provide any personalized investment recommendations to users of the Services. All users of the Services should consult with their own investment, accounting, tax or legal advisers with respect to their individual circumstances and needs.  EDGE is not a fiduciary by virtue of any person’s use of, or access to, the Services.  You alone assume the sole responsibility of evaluating the merits and risks associated with the use of any information or other content provided or made available via the Services before making any decisions based on such information or other content.

7. FEES; SUBSCRIPTION AND AUTOMATIC RENEWAL TERMS 
   • Fees.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS, WE WILL NOT REFUND ANY FEES THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID WITH RESPECT TO AUTO-RENEWAL PURCHASES.
10. • Price of Auto-Renewal Purchases. We may change the price for Auto-Renewal Purchases from time to time, and we will communicate any price changes to you in advance of your automatic renewal date. We may offer discount coupons off our full-price rates periodically, but these discounts may expire after a period of time or under certain conditions and cannot be applied retroactively.  We will notify you of the coupon terms if a coupon is provided.  We do not guarantee you will be able to use a coupon for discounted purchases. Price changes for Auto-Renewal Purchases will take effect at the start of the next auto-renewal period following the date of the price change. As permitted by local law, you accept the new price by continuing to use the Auto-Renewal Purchase after the price change takes effect. If you do not agree with the price changes, you have the right to reject the change by unsubscribing from the Auto-Renewal Purchase prior to the price change going into effect. Please therefore make sure you read any such notification of price changes carefully.

20. DISPUTE RESOLUTION
    • Binding Mutual Arbitration. Any dispute, claim or controversy in connection with, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate (a “Dispute”), will be determined by arbitration in Denver County, Colorado or another mutually agreed upon location before a single arbitrator. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This provision will not preclude Parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
21. • Conduct of Arbitration. The arbitration will be commenced by the claimant party filing a demand for arbitration with the administrator of AAA and serving the demand on the opposing party. Within thirty (30) calendar days of the date the demand for arbitration is filed, the Parties will select an arbitrator by following the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules’ appointment procedures. Except as may be required by law, neither Party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration under this Agreement without the prior written consent of both Parties. The arbitrator’s award will be in writing accompanied by a reasoned opinion and a written statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
22. • Costs. The arbitrator will determine how the costs and expenses of the arbitration will be allocated between the Parties, and may award attorneys’ fees.
23. • Limitation of Liability. In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator may not award any incidental, indirect, or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits or any punitive or exemplary damages.
24. • Arbitration is on an Individual Basis Only; Class Action Waiver. The parties agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and that this Agreement does not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative arbitration proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. Notwithstanding the arbitrator’s power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction and the validity or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate, the arbitrator has no power to rule on the validity or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate solely on an individual basis. In the event the prohibition on class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of this Section will remain in force.

21. MISCELLANEOUS
    • Complete Agreement. These Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between User and EDGE, regarding the Services and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Services, except where the parties have entered into other written agreements governing specific terms of service, specific payment terms, or other mutually agreed-upon terms and conditions.
22. • Waiver. A provision of these Terms may be waived only by a written instrument executed by the party entitled to the benefit of such provision. The failure of EDGE to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
23. • Relationship of the Parties. The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture or other form of joint enterprise, employment or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.‌
24. • No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of these Terms.‌
25. • Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.‌
26. • Force Majeure. EDGE shall not be liable or responsible to User, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond the reasonable control of EDGE including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot, or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, lock-outs, strikes or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to either party’s workforce), or restraints or delays affecting carriers or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials, materials or telecommunication breakdown (including interruption or termination of data supply from a material or critical data service provider) or power outage. In the event any of the foregoing acts or circumstances continues for thirty (30) or more days, EDGE shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the User and to refund to User any amounts previously paid by User for the subscription period then in effect, where such refund shall be in an amount pro rata to the remainder of the applicable period as calculated from the date of the notice of termination.
27. • Survival. Provisions of these Terms, which by their nature should apply beyond their terms, will remain in force after any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
