Accordingly, by accessing or using the Content or the Services you agree that, in the event that you use the Services or the Content, including any data obtained through the Services, for commercial gain without being permissioned by TeleTrader then, without TeleTrader being required to present any evidence of the amount or character or actual damages it has sustained, you and any entity on behalf of which you were acting will be jointly and severally liable to TeleTrader in the amount of Five Hundred U.S. Dollars ($500.00) for each calendar month during which any instance of such unauthorized use occurred and, without limiting the foregoing, each transmission, retransmission, transaction or per diem connectivity associated with any such commercial use shall constitute a separate and distinct instance of unauthorized use. Such liquidated damages are intended to represent estimated actual damages and are not intended as a penalty, and payment of such liquidated damages shall not limit TeleTrader’s right to seek injunctive relief or other rights and remedies.

III. Limitations of Liability

1) No Advice. You acknowledge and agree that TeleTrader will not provide you or other Users with, and you will not accept from TeleTrader, investment, financial, tax or legal advice.

You should consult with your own professional advisor for any form of investment advice.

2) Third Party Content. TeleTrader does not endorse or guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any Content, including any data, supplied by third parties. Users and others who rely on such Content do so at their own risk. You agree that TeleTrader and its data providers and licensors are not liable for any errors, defects or shortcomings in the correctness, completeness or accuracy of any information provided through the Services or in the Content, including stock-exchange and economic information, indices, share prices, other prices, messages, general market data, other data and other Content displayed or accessible through the Services. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT TELETRADER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTIES, INCLUDING SOURCES OF DATA OR OTHER CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH TELETRADER OR ITS SERVICES.

3) Disclaimers . The Services and Content are provided on an “as is” basis. TELETRADER MAKES NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, SYSTEM INTEGRATION, AVAILABILITY, INTEGRITY, RELIABILITY, TRANSMISSION OR RESPONSE TIME, DATA ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, SUITABILITY OF CONTENT OR SERVICES, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, INCLUDING WITH RESPECT TO ITS CONTENT, WEBSITES AND SERVICES. YOUR USE OF THE CONTENT AND THE SERVICES IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. NEITHER TELETRADER NOR ITS PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES, NOR THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS, MANAGERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES OR SPONSORS (EACH A “RELATED PARTY”) ARE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO YOU OR ANYONE ELSE FOR ANY LOSS OR INJURY OR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR OTHER DAMAGES UNDER ANY CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER THEORY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE CONTENT OR THE SERVICES. THE FOREGOING IS APPLICABLE WHETHER OR NOT THE LOSS OR INJURY IS CAUSED BY EVENTS BEYOND THE CONTROL OF TELETRADER OR ANY RELATED PARTY. TO THE EXTENT THAT TELETRADER MAY NOT, AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW IN ANY PARTICULAR JURISDICTION, DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OR LIMIT LIABILITIES AS PROVIDED FOR IN THESE TERMS OF USE, USER HERBY WAIVES ANY CLAIMS BASED ON THE SAME, AND THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF ANY SUCH WARRANTY AND THE EXTENT OF TELETRADER’S LIABILITY WILL BE THE MINIMUM PERMITTED UNDER SUCH APPLICABLE LAW IN SUCH JURISDICTION.

4) Release. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable laws, you hereby release TeleTrader and its Related Parties from any liability related to: (a) any incorrect or inaccurate Content; (b) the conduct, whether online or offline, of any User; and (c) any error or omission, interruption or deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, communications line failure, theft or destruction or unauthorized access, or alteration, of, to or in connection with the Content and the Services. You hereby waive any code or statute which states or implies that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

5) Indemnity. You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold TeleTrader and its Related Parties harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, damages, losses, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees and disbursements) which arise or relate, directly or indirectly, out of, from or to (i) your breach of these Terms of Use, (ii) your violation of any applicable law or regulation, or (iii) any access or use of the Content or the Services by you or anyone using your TeleTrader account. This section shall survive the termination of these Terms of Use for any reason.

6) No Class Actions. ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY EITHER YOU OR TELETRADER MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE COURT OR ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE, COLLECTIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.

Any personal data that is transferred to TeleTrader during the establishment of any TeleTrader account or use of the TeleTrader Services shall be collected, stored, and electronically processed by TeleTrader with commercially reasonable care and discretion.

In the event that you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account, or any other security breach, you agree to immediately notify TeleTrader of the same in writing. To minimize the risk of a security breach, you agree to log out of TeleTrader at the end of each session and to ensure that your login information is not saved on any public or shared computers or devices and to otherwise exercise good care to protect your account’s security. You agree that TeleTrader is not responsible or liable for any improper or unauthorized use of any of your personal information or passwords resulting from your failure to comply with the provisions of these Terms of Use and you hereby waive any claim in connection with the same.

2) Headings, Interchangeability and Interpretation.

Whenever the context so requires, the singular shall include the plural and vice versa. All words and phrases shall be construed as masculine, feminine or neuter gender, according to the context. Whenever the term “include,” “including,” or “included” is used in these Terms of Use, it shall mean “including without limiting the generality of the foregoing”.

Vienna, Austria, is hereby agreed upon as the place of performance and you agree that Vienna courts will have exclusive jurisdiction over any disputes relating to these Terms of Use, insofar as there is no compulsory court of jurisdiction.

5) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of these Terms of Use shall be construed and interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of these Terms of Use or the application thereof to any party or circumstance shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, then such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition without invalidating the remainder of such provision or any other provision of these Terms of Use or the application of such provision to other parties or circumstances.

6) Entire Agreement. All discussions, correspondence, understandings, and agreements heretofore had or made between the parties are superseded by and merged into these Terms of Use, which alone fully and completely express the agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof, and the same is entered into with no party relying upon any statement or representation made by or on behalf of any party not embodied in these Terms of Use.
