IntraAlpha grants all users of intraalpha.com, and all other available versions of the site, to use snapshots of IntraAlpha charts in analysis, press releases, books, articles, blog posts and other publications. In addition, IntraAlpha grants the use of all previously mentioned materials in education sessions, the display of IntraAlpha charts during video broadcasts, which includes overviews, news, analytics and otherwise use or promote IntraAlpha charts or any products from the IntraAlpha website on the condition that IntraAlpha attribution is clearly visible at all times when such charts and products are used.
Attribution must include a reference to IntraAlpha, including, but not limited to, those described herein.
Use of IntraAlpha charts during video or other promotions where IntraAlpha attribution is not visible, must include a description of the product used therein. For instance: “Charting platform used for this analysis is provided by IntraAlpha,” or simply “Charts by IntraAlpha.” Font size should not be less than 10 PT = 13PX = 3.4MM.
You can use the “Snapshot” button in the top toolbar of the chart to instantly create a picture file of your current chart. IntraAlpha will automatically take a snapshot with all required attributions and provide a link where you can view your chart, download it or share it. The use of any IntraAlpha products outside the IntraAlpha website, without a proper attribution of IntraAlpha, is not allowed. This extends to any tools (such as widgets) obtained on the IntraAlpha website and utilized on the outside resources, where attribution should remain as was originally designed and intended. Users who disobey this attribution rule herein may be banned permanently, and other legal actions may be taken to ensure compliance. This includes, but is not limited to, cease-and-desist warnings, court orders, injunctions, fines, damages relief, and so on.
IntraAlpha may include links to third party websites. Some of these sites may contain materials that are objectionable, unlawful, or inaccurate. You agree that IntraAlpha shall not be held liable for any trading activities or other activities that occur on any website you access through links on IntraAlpha. We provide these links as a convenience and do not endorse the content or services offered by these other sites. Any dealings that you have with advertisers found on IntraAlpha are between you and the advertiser and you acknowledge and agree that we are not liable for any loss or claim you may have against an advertiser.
Unauthorized soliciting on IntraAlpha is strictly prohibited and may result in penalties, including, but not limited to, temporary or permanent bans of the account found in violation, and any appropriate and available legal action for monetary and other damages.
IntraAlpha cannot and does not represent or guarantee that any of the information available through our services or on IntraAlpha is accurate, reliable, current, complete or appropriate for your needs. Various information available through our services or on IntraAlpha may be specially obtained by IntraAlpha from professional businesses or organizations, such as exchanges, news providers, market data providers and other content providers (e.g. Cboe BZX and possibly other established financial exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, New York Mercantile Exchange and Dow Jones), who are believed to be sources of reliable information (collectively, the “Data Providers”). Nevertheless, due to various factors — including the inherent possibility of human and mechanical error — the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, results obtained from use, and correct sequencing of information available through our services and website are not and cannot be guaranteed by IntraAlpha. We make no warranty and assume no obligation or liability for scripts, indicators, ideas and other content of third parties. Your use of any third-party scripts, indicators, ideas and other content is at your sole risk.
Decisions to buy, sell, hold or trade in securities, commodities and other investments involve risk and are best made based on the advice of qualified financial professionals. Any trading in securities or other investments involves a risk of substantial losses. The practice of “Day Trading” involves particularly high risks and can cause you to lose substantial sums of money. Before undertaking any trading program, you should consult a qualified financial professional. Please consider carefully whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition and ability to bear financial risks. Under no circumstances shall we be liable for any loss or damage you or anyone else incurs as a result of any trading or investment activity that you or anyone else engages in based on any information or material you receive through IntraAlpha or our services.
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are mentioned below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and actual results subsequently achieved by any trading program.
One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of the trading losses are material points, which can also adversely affect trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the market in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.
Certain services, such as saving charts, publishing them, or the ability to comment on published charts, are available only to registered users of the IntraAlpha website and require you to sign in with a username and password to use them. If you register as a user (a “Subscriber”) of any of the features of IntraAlpha, during the registration process you may be prompted to click “Register Now”, “Submit” or a similar button; your clicking on such button will further confirm your agreement to be legally bound by these Terms of Use.

You also agree to: (a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the IntraAlpha’s registration form (the “Registration Data”) and (b) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or IntraAlpha has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, IntraAlpha has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the IntraAlpha services (or any portion thereof).
You represent and warrant that you have all intellectual property rights, including all necessary patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights, in and to your content. If you use third-party materials, you represent and warrant that you have the right to distribute third-party material in the content. You agree that you will not submit material that is copyrighted, protected by trade secret, or otherwise subject to third-party proprietary rights, including patent, privacy and publicity rights unless you are the owner of such rights or have permission from their rightful owner to submit the material.

As a vendor of official real-time market data from exchanges (e.g. Nasdaq) for end users, we are required to identify the ‘Non-Professional’ status of any Subscriber. By ordering a subscription for market data on IntraAlpha (except for the following subscriptions: CME GLOBEX, CBOT, COMEX, NYMEX) you confirm the following:
Our proprietary derivation consumes raw market data and executes a 2-factor derivation process to produce the displayed price, later consumed by the price engine. Derived market data is sourced and supplied from various sources and can therefore be blended.
The derivation process involves changing the raw price by a factor determined by the volume of trading on the underlying market, a randomized variable and a maximum offset amount. The derived data price is only ever displayed to our non-professional clients, the derived data price then being the proprietary value of an organization.
At no point is raw data accessible by any client, nor can said data be reverse-engineered in any manner. All markets are passed through the same derivation engine.
You accept responsibility for the confidentiality and use of any username and email address that use to register for your access to and use of our services. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify IntraAlpha of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. IntraAlpha cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply.
IntraAlpha considers private information on the site (source code of protected or invite-only scripts, etc.) to be confidential to you. IntraAlpha protects such private information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner that it protects personal data (please refer to our Privacy Policy for more information).
By submitting ideas, content, suggestions, documents, and/or proposals (“Contributions”) to IntraAlpha through our contact or feedback webpages, you acknowledge and agree that: (a) your Contributions do not contain confidential or proprietary information; (b) IntraAlpha is not under any obligation of confidentiality, expressed or implied, with respect to the Contributions; (c) IntraAlpha shall be entitled to use or disclose (or choose not to use or disclose) such Contributions for any purpose, in any way, in any media worldwide; (d) IntraAlpha may have something similar to the Contributions already under consideration or in development; (e) your Contributions automatically become the property of IntraAlpha, without any obligation of IntraAlpha to you; and (f) you are not entitled to any compensation or reimbursement of any kind from IntraAlpha under any circumstances.
You agree to indemnify and hold IntraAlpha and our subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, employees, partners and licensors harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of content you submit, post, transmit, modify or otherwise make available through the IntraAlpha services, your use of the IntraAlpha services, your connection to the IntraAlpha services, your violation of the Terms of Use, or your violation of any rights of another.
Upon your request, your account can be deleted from IntraAlpha. You may delete your account at any time by visiting your Profile Settings page. If you requested your account be deleted, we will delete the personal data associated with your account, however certain personal data will be retained if it has been integrated into data that is integral to our systems and site, including data in communications you have sent via our site. This data is necessarily retained for the integrity of the data on the site and our legitimate business purposes, including auditing, security and other legitimate interests (please refer to our Privacy Policy for more information). Your published Contributions will remain on the site in our discretion. Once a Contribution has been published, it becomes part of the communal trading knowledge and should stay that way. This policy prevents users from keeping only their best ideas public, thus keeping everyone honest and maintaining public confidence in the reputation and integrity of the site.
You agree that IntraAlpha may, without prior notice, immediately terminate, limit your access to or suspend your IntraAlpha account, any associated email address, and access to the IntraAlpha services. Cause for such termination, limitation of access or suspension shall include, but not be limited to, (a) breaches or violations of the Terms of Use or other incorporated agreements or guidelines, (b)requests by law enforcement or other government agencies, (c) discontinuance or material modification to the IntraAlpha services (or any part thereof), (d) unexpected technical or security issues or problems, (e) extended periods of inactivity, (f) and/or engagement by you in fraudulent or illegal activities. Further, you agree that all terminations, limitations of access and suspensions for cause shall be made in IntraAlpha’s sole discretion and that IntraAlpha shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your account, any associated email address, or access to the IntraAlpha services.

In Short: If you choose to register or log in to our services using a social media account, we may have access to certain information about you.
Our Services offer you the ability to register and log in using your third-party social media account details (like your Facebook or Twitter logins). Where you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information about you from your social media provider. The profile information we receive may vary depending on the social media provider concerned, but will often include your name, email address, friends list, and profile picture, as well as other information you choose to make public on such a social media platform.
We will use the information we receive only for the purposes that are described in this privacy notice or that are otherwise made clear to you on the relevant Services. Please note that we do not control, and are not responsible for, other uses of your personal information by your third-party social media provider.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.

If you become aware of any data we may have collected from children under age 18, please contact us at [email protected].

In Short: In some regions, such as the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), and Canada, you have rights that allow you greater access to and control over your personal information. You may review, change, or terminate your account at any time.
In some regions (like the EEA, UK, and Canada), you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws.

In certain circumstances, you may also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. You can make such a request by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?“ below.

If you are located in the EEA or UK and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here: https://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/bodies/authorities/index_en.htm.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us by using the contact details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?“ below or updating your preferences.
However, please note that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal nor, when applicable law allows, will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
Opting out of marketing and promotional communications: You can unsubscribe from our marketing and promotional communications at any time by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the emails that we send, or by contacting us using the details provided in the section “HOW CAN YOU CONTACT US ABOUT THIS NOTICE?“ below.

Upon your request to terminate your account, we will deactivate or delete your account and information from our active databases.

If you have questions or comments about your privacy rights, you may email us at [email protected].
12. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
13. DO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS HAVE SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS?
In Short: Yes, if you are a resident of California, you are granted specific rights regarding access to your personal information.
