1. Agreement, company and scope
These Terms govern the SquaredQ website and portal, strategy signals and licenses, research, simulations, My Algo cloud instances, Reader software and related support (the "Service") provided by squaredQ LLC ("SquaredQ", "we" or "us"). You accept by an affirmative agreement action. The Risk Disclaimer forms part of these Terms; the Privacy Policy explains information processing and is not a blanket consent to every use of information. If you do not agree, do not activate or continue using the Service under these Terms.
SquaredQ is a Wyoming limited liability company, Secretary of State filing ID 2026-002086224. Contact admin@squaredq.com, phone +1 54 23826281, or 1007 N Orange St., 4th Floor 6166, Wilmington, DE 19801, United States. The registered agent is Registered Agents Inc, 30 N Gould St Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801; that address is not a customer-support or trading office.
The accepted checkout identifies the package, license quantities, prices, currency, service period and any expressly offered refund or trial terms. Those specific commercial terms prevail over conflicting general commercial wording here. A separately signed agreement prevails only to the extent it expressly changes these Terms. Nothing here overrides a right, duty, remedy or protection that applicable law does not permit the parties to waive.
2. Eligibility, ownership and account security
You must be at least 18, have capacity to contract, provide accurate information and be permitted to use the Service in your location. If acting for an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind it. Connect only a brokerage account you own or are lawfully authorized to operate. Do not use the Service to evade sanctions, account restrictions, broker rules or registration requirements applicable to your activities.
Safeguard login credentials, API keys, devices and remote-desktop access, choose appropriate broker API permissions, and promptly report suspected compromise. Do not share your SquaredQ login or sell cloud-desktop access. Notify your broker directly if its credentials or account may be compromised. Responsibility for unauthorized activity remains subject to applicable law; reporting an incident does not cancel orders already accepted by a broker.
We may request reasonable verification or restrict access to address fraud, security, eligibility or legal requirements. Access from a location does not establish that every feature or instrument may lawfully be used there.
3. Self-directed software and your trading authorization
SquaredQ licenses self-directed software and standardized strategy signals, research and simulations. You choose the broker and account, strategies, license assignments, allocations, leverage, risk controls and whether trading is armed. An armed Reader may receive signals, calculate targets and submit, replace, modify or cancel orders without approval of each trade. The Reader implements the standing configuration you authorize; understand that configuration before enabling it.
SquaredQ does not act as your investment adviser or provide individualized investment recommendations or account-management services. We do not evaluate your complete finances, objectives, risk tolerance or tax circumstances to select investments for you. Technical support, rankings, compatibility indicators and examples are not a personal suitability assessment. SquaredQ is not your executing broker, custodian, exchange, bank or insurer and does not hold your funds or securities.
These descriptions identify the intended service relationship; they do not decide regulatory status, create a regulatory exemption or disclaim a duty imposed by law. No regulator or brokerage approval, investment protection or insurance coverage should be inferred from a broker integration, logo or software connection.
4. Saved settings, recovery and multiple instances
Closing the website, signing out or closing the remote desktop does not disarm trading. A Reader may retain and resume an armed setup after connection loss, recovery or restart. Disconnecting or removing broker credentials does not necessarily erase strategy and risk settings. Connecting or reconnecting a broker can resume a preserved setup. Disarm and review the selected account and all saved settings before replacing credentials, switching accounts or reconnecting.
Each My Algo instance operates its own execution state. Do not assume separate Readers share one allocation limit, order ledger, account-wide risk budget or broker session. Connecting several instances or other trading systems to the same brokerage account may cause conflicting orders, duplicate exposure, session conflicts or interference. You must coordinate access and monitor combined account exposure.
A license move, available strategy, healthy server or successful setup message is not proof that the desired configuration is active, every order executed, or an account is flat. Check Reader settings and broker records after material changes.
5. Broker permissions, capital and execution limits
Your broker determines account eligibility, permissions, settlement, market-data access, API availability, order acceptance, fills, short availability, margin and liquidation. Maintain adequate eligible capital, current credentials and required authentication. Complete re-authentication when required; reminders and countdowns are conveniences, not guarantees of access or advance warning.
Cash, margin, retirement, IRA and 401(k) accounts have different restrictions. An eligibility icon or successful connection is not legal, tax, plan or broker approval. Unknown permissions, settled-funds restrictions, borrowing limits and unsupported instruments may prevent activation or reduce execution. Long-only targets may be proportionally scaled; unsupported, unaffordable or rejected targets may be skipped or remain as cash. Results can differ materially from the model.
Minimum-deposit figures are planning estimates, not broker minimums or promises of accurate replication or returns. Fractional shares, whole-share rounding, minimum order sizes, quotes, financing and available buying power affect allocations. A leverage setting does not establish broker permission; native strategy leverage and other positions also matter.
6. Monitoring, risk controls and closing positions
Maintain independent broker access and review confirmations, positions, open orders, margin notices and statements. SquaredQ is not an emergency execution desk and does not promise human monitoring of your account. Email, chat and support requests are not instructions to place, cancel or close trades; use the appropriate controls or your broker directly.
Risk controls may pause, disconnect or request liquidation according to their settings. They are not guaranteed broker-native stops, execution prices or maximum-loss limits. Reader account-percentage controls use the stored account-value reference for that setup; do not assume they continuously trail a market high. A disconnect-only action does not liquidate. Risk-reducing orders can fail, fill partially or remain pending.
Normal Reader-only closing depends on recorded Reader ownership and may leave independent positions open. Account-wide Risk Management can cancel independent orders and close manual positions. Shared symbols, earlier trades, manual adjustments, missing ownership history and quarantined assets can complicate separation. A close or liquidation request is not confirmation of completion: verify remaining positions and orders directly with the broker.
7. Research, estimates and performance information
Factsheets, signals, rankings, charts, research and comparisons are informational software outputs, not performance promises. Backtests, model histories, hypothetical liquidation, simulations and estimates can use hindsight, revised data and assumptions not reproducible in live trading. They may omit or underestimate commissions, spreads, slippage, market impact, financing, subscriptions, tax, outages and operational constraints unless expressly included. Past, modeled or simulated performance does not predict future results.
A Portfolio Studio simulated stop-loss is not a live broker order and does not configure the Reader. Its daily peak-to-trough simulation includes the breach day's full return, then holds the simulated allocation in cash through that calendar month before re-entering on the next month's first available observation. The IRA / 401(k) chart is a labeled estimate using published maximum exposure, not a replay of actual retirement-account execution. Product Demo histories are illustrative and must not be represented as actual customer results.
Market tags describe researched instruments, not current holdings. Telemetry, account values, benchmark periods and research can be delayed, incomplete, restated or use different methods. The broker's official records control actual transactions, holdings, cash and tax reporting. A dashboard receipt or modeled liquidation does not prove broker-confirmed liquidation or clear a real trading halt.
8. Activation, packages and license assignments
A one-time activation purchases the activation described at checkout, not ownership of a strategy, lifetime signal delivery, perpetual cloud hosting, future catalogue additions or unlimited support. Continued signal delivery and hosted operation require the recurring service and license quantities in the accepted order. A package covers the systems and activation rights identified in that order, not every system later offered.
Use no more simultaneous activations than your licenses allow. A license move may revoke delivery on the previous instance before installation or confirmation on the destination. Provisioning, delivery, repair and revocation can be asynchronous. A license change can disarm trading and request cancellation of Reader-managed orders; it does not guarantee that existing positions close or all broker-held orders are cancelled.
Additional My Algo instances and other services may carry separately disclosed charges. We may enforce reasonable instance and technical limits shown in the Service. A package label or prior purchase does not authorize bypassing limits or sharing credentials with another customer.
9. Prices, payments and automatic renewal
Review the one-time fee, recurring amount, currency, quantity, service period, taxes and separate instance charges before ordering. Subscription or provisioning confirmation is not proof that money was collected. Payment is due or collected only under an enabled payment arrangement whose amount and terms are disclosed and that you authorize. A no-payment checkout does not authorize a future payment-method charge without required authorization.
Where recurring payments are enabled and authorized, service renews at the disclosed interval and amount until cancelled. Broker commissions, spreads, borrow fees, interest, market data, exchange fees and taxes are separate unless expressly included. Turning off trading, leaving an account unfunded, not logging in or failing broker sign-in does not cancel recurring service. Price changes apply prospectively with required notice and consent, not retroactively to a paid period.
Keep billing information current and pay valid, undisputed amounts when due. We may suspend unpaid services after required notice. Report suspected billing errors so we can investigate; nothing here removes a lawful issuer dispute, chargeback or statutory refund right. Fraudulent disputes, forged confirmations and deliberate payment evasion are material breaches.
10. Cancellation, refunds and account deletion
Manage and cancel services in Billing. If access or a control is unavailable, email admin@squaredq.com from the account email identifying the service to cancel. Cancellation does not require another purchase or acceptance of revised Terms. We honor valid requests received before renewal under the disclosed terms and applicable law; retain confirmation. Marketing unsubscribe is not cancellation of paid service.
Strategy cancellation can remove signal access promptly. My Algo cancellation stops renewal and requests provider termination at the displayed or next available service date; access and previously armed trading can continue until disarmed or the instance stops. Cancellation, suspension, credential deletion and account deletion do not automatically liquidate positions, reverse fills, cancel all broker-held orders or settle margin obligations. Secure direct broker access and take required trading action before giving up portal access.
Except for an express checkout promise or a right required by law, completed activation fees are non-refundable and an elapsed or partially used recurring period is not prorated. This does not permit retention of a payment we are legally required to refund or for an activation never provided. No refund, credit or extension is promised merely because a strategy loses money, you do not use the Service, or your broker is incompatible or unavailable. Applicable consumer withdrawal, defective-service and refund rights prevail.
Account deletion closes the login and initiates associated service cancellations; provider termination and record deletion can complete later. Records may remain as described in the Privacy Policy, including agreement, security, accounting and dispute evidence where justified. Deletion does not release existing lawful charges or replace obligations to your broker.
11. License, content and prohibited conduct
Subject to an active entitlement and these Terms, we grant a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service for your authorized account, revocable for breach. SquaredQ and its licensors retain their software, protected content, trademarks, documentation and other intellectual property. Third-party materials remain subject to their owners' rights. No other rights are granted by implication.
Do not resell, sublicense or redistribute credentials, nonpublic signals or protected research; defeat license checks; bulk-extract protected content; introduce malicious code; overload or probe systems without permission; impersonate another user; or engage in unlawful manipulation, fraud or unauthorized account management. Do not reverse engineer protected software except where non-waivable law permits it. Ordinary authorized Reader use, legally protected interoperability and responsible vulnerability reporting remain permitted.
You retain rights in submitted information and grant only processing rights needed to deliver, secure and support the Service and meet legal obligations, consistent with the Privacy Policy. Do not place unrelated sensitive information on the cloud desktop. We may use feedback without an obligation to implement or pay for it, but not to disclose personal information contrary to that Policy. Honest reviews, lawful complaints and reports to regulators are not restricted.
12. Providers, maintenance and service changes
Independent brokers, gateways, strategy publishers, exchanges, authentication, cloud, communications and network providers can restrict access, change APIs, reject orders or end support. Their agreements and charges are separate. An integration is not a promise of continuous compatibility, affiliation, guaranteed execution or responsibility for that provider's conduct.
We may update software, repair or restart services, rotate delivery credentials and perform necessary security or compliance maintenance. Recovery can resume a saved setup; maintenance can interrupt trading or access. Unless a signed agreement expressly provides it, no uptime percentage, response time, provisioning deadline, recovery time, backup-restoration guarantee or trading-service level is promised. Loading estimates and status indicators are not contractual deadlines.
We may change or discontinue a feature for legitimate operational, security, legal or provider reasons. Material changes to paid entitlements receive the notice and remedy required by the accepted order and law; this is not permission to retain payment for undelivered service contrary to law. Save records you need and keep broker access. Support availability does not guarantee intervention before a market event or loss.
13. Suspension and termination
We may restrict, suspend or terminate affected access for material breach, nonpayment, fraud, abuse, security incidents, legal requirements or provider restrictions. We may act immediately when delay creates material risk or violates law; otherwise we give notice and a reasonable opportunity to remedy a remediable breach where practical and legally required. Mandatory prepaid-service remedies remain available.
Suspension does not promise liquidation or prevent losses. A broker can continue processing submitted orders, and positions can remain after signal or cloud access ends. A license ends with its entitlement. Ownership, outstanding lawful charges, risk acknowledgments, liability and dispute provisions survive to the extent relevant and lawful.
14. Important warranty exclusions
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE. We disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement and warranties arising from usage or a course of dealing, except where exclusion is unlawful. We do not warrant that software, research, signals, data, risk processes, cloud access or orders will be accurate, complete, uninterrupted, timely, error-free or secure against every threat.
No profit, preservation of capital, tracking accuracy, maximum drawdown, compatibility, recovery or successful trade is promised. A factsheet, minimum-deposit estimate, sales example, support response or past experience does not create a performance warranty. These exclusions do not cancel an express accepted-order promise, excuse fraud or remove mandatory consumer remedies.
15. Important limits on liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SquaredQ and its officers, employees and licensors are not liable for lost profits, opportunity, anticipated savings or goodwill, or indirect, consequential, incidental, special, exemplary or punitive damages arising from the Service, under contract, negligence or another theory, whether foreseeable or disclosed. To the same lawful extent, we exclude liability for trading losses, market movements, missed or delayed trades and acts of independent brokers or providers, except where law requires otherwise.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total aggregate monetary liability for all claims connected with the same or related events is limited to the greater of USD $100 or fees actually paid to SquaredQ for the affected Service during the 12 months before the first event giving rise to the claim. This limit is aggregate, not per trade, claim, account or My Algo instance. Brokerage capital, third-party charges and hypothetical gains are not SquaredQ fees. A legally required refund of prepaid charges is not reduced by this cap.
These exclusions and the cap do not exclude or limit fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence where it cannot be limited, death or personal injury where legally protected, or statutory, securities-law, fiduciary, data-protection, consumer or other liability that applicable law does not allow to be excluded or limited. They do not prevent regulatory complaints or lawful remedies. If an exclusion cannot apply, the remaining lawful limitations apply independently.
16. Responsibility for third-party claims
To the extent permitted by law, you will indemnify SquaredQ against reasonable, documented losses, liabilities and legal costs from a third-party claim caused by your unlawful use, infringement of another person's rights, unauthorized account operation, fraud or material breach. This does not require indemnity for a claim caused by our fraud, willful misconduct, negligence or breach of a duty imposed on us by law.
We give reasonably prompt notice, permit a reasonable defense and cooperate at the responsible party's expense. A settlement cannot admit fault for, impose a nonmonetary duty on or fail to fully release the other party without its written consent. This clause does not make you responsible for ordinary market losses claimed by SquaredQ or restrict your own lawful claim against us.
17. Disputes, governing law and forum
Send a dispute notice to admin@squaredq.com describing the account, events and requested resolution. We will try in good faith to resolve it; where legally permitted, allow 30 days before filing a contract claim. This process does not prevent urgent relief, regulator complaints, small-claims proceedings or filing needed to preserve a limitation period.
Except where mandatory law requires otherwise, Wyoming law governs without its conflict-of-law rules, and state or federal courts serving Cheyenne, Wyoming are the agreed forum. A consumer retains non-waivable rights to the law, courts and remedies of their home jurisdiction. These Terms do not create mandatory arbitration, a class-action waiver or a waiver of non-waivable statutory claims.
18. Changes, notices and electronic records
Changes apply prospectively. We publish a new effective date and give reasonable notice of material changes before they apply. Where renewed agreement is required, a page update, a previously checked box or silence is not agreement. Acceptance records identify the version and acceptance time. Existing disputes are not retroactively governed by a new limitation merely because a page changes.
Keep a working email and review notices. Essential messages concern security, purchases, cancellations, cloud readiness or broker access; delivery before an incident is not guaranteed. Marketing choices remain separate where required by law, and unsubscribe does not stop essential service messages. Save or print accepted documents. For paper-copy or electronic-notice questions contact admin@squaredq.com; statutory notice requirements prevail.
19. Interpretation and continuing effect
These Terms, the Risk Disclaimer, accepted checkout and controlling signed agreement state the Service agreement. The Privacy Policy governs information practices rather than waiving privacy rights. Informal support or marketing statements do not amend the agreement unless an authorized representative expressly agrees in writing, without limiting responsibility for fraud or a legally binding representation.
An invalid provision is severed only as necessary; the rest remains effective unless law requires otherwise. Delay in enforcement is not a waiver. You may not assign an account or license without written consent; we may assign in a bona fide business transfer without reducing legally protected rights. No third party gains control over your account through these Terms. Mandatory consumer and other non-waivable protections prevail over every conflicting clause.
