Terms of Service
1. The deal
TradeRewind is a personal trading journal service operated by Christian Valeo as an individual ("we", "us", "the service"). By creating an account or using anything at traderewindjournal.com, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use it.
2. What TradeRewind is
TradeRewind helps you log, review, and analyze your own trading activity. We provide tools — you provide the trades, notes, and screenshots. We do not execute trades, hold funds, or connect to your brokerage account (unless you explicitly enable a broker sync feature in the future).
3. NOT financial advice
This is the most important section. Read it.
Nothing in TradeRewind is financial, investment, tax, accounting, or legal advice. This includes:
- Your own stats, equity curves, win rates, or analytics
- Posts from other users in community features
- Leaderboards, "Trade of the Day," group P&L, or any social/comparison element
- Anything we write in the UI, tooltips, marketing, or anywhere else
Trading involves substantial risk of loss. You can lose more than you invest. Past performance does not predict future results. You are 100% responsible for your own trading decisions. Don't trade based on what other users post, share, or claim. We are not licensed financial advisors and we don't pretend to be.
4. Your account
- You must be 18 years or older to use TradeRewind.
- You must provide an accurate email and keep your password secure.
- One account per person. No sharing, reselling, or automating account creation.
- You are responsible for everything that happens on your account.
5. Your content
- Trade data, notes, screenshots, and avatars you upload are yours. We don't claim ownership.
- You grant us a limited license to display your content within the service so the app can function (e.g., showing your trades to communities you've joined).
- Don't post anything illegal, harassing, defamatory, infringing on someone's IP, or sexually explicit.
- Don't impersonate other people or claim affiliations you don't have.
- We can remove content or restrict your account if you violate these rules.
6. Community features
If you join a community group, you opt in to having other members of that group see the trades you share to the feed. Be respectful. Don't dox, harass, or scam other members. We can remove content, revoke community access, or terminate accounts for violations.
7. Service availability
We aim to keep TradeRewind running but we don't guarantee uptime. We may need to do maintenance, fix bugs, change or remove features, or take the service offline temporarily. Things sometimes break. We're working on it.
8. Pricing and changes
TradeRewind offers a free tier plus paid Pro plans (Direct, Premium, and Elite). We may update pricing or these terms — if we make significant changes, we'll notify you by email or in-app, and continued use after that means you accept the changes.
9. Termination
- You can delete your account anytime (Settings → Danger Zone). Deletion removes your data from our active database.
- We can suspend or terminate accounts for terms violations, illegal use, or extended inactivity.
- We may give notice before termination unless the situation requires immediate action.
10. Limitation of liability
TradeRewind is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent allowed by law:
- We are not liable for any trading losses, missed opportunities, lost data, downtime, or other damages connected to your use of the service.
- Our total liability for any claim is limited to whatever you've paid us in the prior 12 months (which is $0 if you're on the free plan).
11. Indemnification
You agree to defend and indemnify TradeRewind against any claims arising from your use of the service, your content, or your violation of these terms.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, USA. Any dispute will be resolved through binding arbitration in New Jersey rather than in court, except for small-claims matters or injunctive relief for IP violations.
