Terms of Service
Last updated: 5 October 2026
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Qubit Quant. They govern your access to and use of the Qubit Quant website, the beta list, and the QubitQuant Terminal and any other software or tools we make available (together, the "Services"). The Risk Disclosure, Privacy Policy, and Cookie Policy form part of these Terms.
1Acceptance of Terms
In these Terms, "Qubit Quant", "we", "us" and "our" mean Qubit Quant, operated by [[ENTITY]]. "You" and "your" mean the individual or entity accessing the Services. "The Services" means everything described in the introduction above.
By accessing the website, joining the beta list, creating an account, or downloading or using any software we make available, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and by the documents incorporated by reference. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation.
If you do not agree, you must not access or use the Services. Your only remedy for dissatisfaction with the Services or these Terms is to stop using them.
2What Qubit Quant Provides
Qubit Quant is run by two engineers. We build the QubitQuant Terminal, a desktop research application. You ask a question about a market or give it a paper, and an AI agent researches it, writes the idea as a strategy file, backtests it with costs, and runs a validation suite that ends in a computed verdict. The Terminal is in beta and is not yet publicly distributed. This website describes it and runs a list for one email when the beta can be downloaded.
- We are software providers. We build and publish software and write about how it works. That is the entire scope of what we do.
- We are not a broker. We do not accept, hold, custody, or transmit your trading funds, do not execute or route orders, and do not operate any trading account on your behalf.
- We are not a fund or asset manager. We do not pool, manage, or invest your money, and we do not offer any collective investment scheme.
- We are not an investment adviser or signal service. We do not provide personalised advice, recommendations, buy/sell signals, or copy-trading. Any example question, strategy, or result we show is illustrative only.
- No live trading. The Terminal does not place trades and does not connect to a broker. Features marked “coming” in the software are not part of the Services until we release them.
Honesty is load-bearing. Every figure we publish about the software is meant to trace to a test a reader can inspect, on stated data. None of this changes the fact that backtested and validated results are modelled, are not a prediction, and are not a promise of profit. See the Risk Disclosure.
3Eligibility
To use the Services you must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, if higher) and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract. The Services are not directed to anyone below that age.
- Local law is your responsibility. You are solely responsible for determining whether accessing the Services, using research and backtesting software, or trading any instrument is lawful where you live, and for complying with all applicable laws, regulations, tax rules, and broker or prop-firm terms.
- Restricted persons. You may not use the Services if you are barred from doing so under applicable sanctions, export controls, or other law, or if doing so would breach any agreement binding on you.
- No reliance created. Our making the Services available in your location is not advice that doing so is lawful or suitable for you.
4Accounts & the Beta List
The beta list. If you leave your email address on the beta list, we use it to send one message when the beta can be downloaded. Joining the list does not create an account, reserve a place, or oblige us to release the software to you or by any date.
Accounts. Where a feature needs an account, you sign in with Google. You are responsible for keeping your Google account secure and for everything done through your account. Tell us promptly at legal@qubitquantglobal.com if you believe it has been used without your permission.
Usage allowances. Hosted features, including our hosted assistant, may carry limits such as a daily message allowance. We may change those limits while the software is in beta.
5Acceptable Use
You agree to use the Services lawfully and only as permitted by these Terms. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you must not do any of the following, and must not permit anyone else to:
- Redistribute or resell. Copy, resell, sublicense, lease, publish, or otherwise redistribute the software, tools, or any part of the Services, except where a licence we publish expressly allows it.
- Reverse engineer. Decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or attempt to derive source code or trading logic, except to the narrow extent that applicable law expressly permits and cannot be waived.
- Circumvent limits. Bypass, disable, or interfere with sign-in, usage allowances, or other technical protection measures.
- Defraud or abuse. Submit false identity or account information, or use the Services to mislead others, including by presenting an edited report or verdict as the software's own output.
- Attack the Services. Introduce malware, scrape at abusive volume, overload our infrastructure, probe for vulnerabilities without authorisation, or access data or accounts that are not yours.
- Misrepresent us. Claim any affiliation, endorsement, partnership, or guarantee that we have not given in writing, or edit, doctor, or misattribute our reports or metrics.
We may investigate suspected violations and cooperate with law enforcement. We may suspend or terminate access for any breach, without limiting our other remedies.
6Fees
The website and the beta list are free. If we introduce paid plans for the software, we will publish the price and the terms that apply before you are charged, and nothing in these Terms obliges you to buy one.
7Earlier Products
Before the Terminal, we published Expert Advisors for MetaTrader 5, sold licences for them, took payment in USDT, and ran an affiliate program. If you hold a licence, a paid plan, or an affiliate arrangement from that time, the terms that were in force when you entered into it, including the Refund Policy, continue to govern it.
Questions about an earlier licence, payment, or affiliate balance go to legal@qubitquantglobal.com.
8Third-Party Services
The Services work alongside services we do not operate. Each has its own terms and privacy practices, and your use of them is between you and the provider.
- Sign-in. Account sign-in is provided by Google through Firebase Authentication.
- Research sources. The software searches third-party sources such as arXiv and SSRN. Papers remain the work of their authors and are subject to the terms of the site that hosts them. We do not vouch for any paper's findings.
- Agents you connect. If you point the software at an AI agent installed on your own machine, that agent runs under your own account with its provider, on that provider's terms, and can write files and run code on your machine. You are responsible for what you allow it to do.
- Data you import. You are responsible for having the right to use any data file you import, and for its accuracy.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not responsible for the acts, omissions, availability, or output of any third-party service.
9Intellectual Property
The Services, including the software, tools, site content, reports, text, design, and the Qubit Quant name and marks, are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual-property law. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.
- Your licence. Subject to these Terms and any applicable plan, we grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licence to use the software and tools we make available to you, for your own use only. This licence ends on termination.
- Restrictions. You gain no ownership. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from the Services except as expressly permitted or required by non-waivable law.
- Feedback. If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use them without obligation to you.
- Publicly known methods. General trading concepts and publicly known strategies are not claimed as our proprietary intellectual property; our licence covers our specific software implementation, code, content, and marks.
10Your Content
Strategy files, data files, and reports you create or import with the software are yours. We claim no ownership of them. If you choose to save a report to your account or share it by link, you give us permission to store it and show it to anyone who has the link, for as long as you keep it shared.
11Beta Software
The software is released in beta. It can contain errors, lose work, change without notice, or be withdrawn. Checks, thresholds, and verdicts may change between versions, so the same strategy can receive a different result after an update. Do not rely on beta software as your only copy of anything that matters to you.
12Not Financial Advice
The Services, including all software, presets, reports, metrics, tools, documentation, and other content, are provided for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing in the Services is, or should be relied upon as, financial, investment, trading, legal, accounting, or tax advice, a recommendation, a solicitation, or an offer to buy or sell any instrument.
Your decisions are your own. We do not know your circumstances and provide no personalised advice. You are solely responsible for evaluating the Services, deciding whether and how to trade, sizing your risk, and, where appropriate, obtaining independent professional advice before trading live. Past and backtested performance is not indicative of future results.
13Disclaimers & Assumption of Risk
As is and as available. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available", with all faults and without warranty of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.
- No warranties. We disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranty arising from course of dealing or usage of trade, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
- No warranty of profitability or results. We do not warrant that the Services will be profitable, will avoid losses, will meet your expectations, or will produce any particular trading result. Any figures, backtests, or examples are illustrative and are not a promise of performance.
- No warranty of operation. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that defects will be corrected. Beta tools may be incomplete, may change, and may be withdrawn.
- Assumption of risk. You understand that trading carries a substantial risk of loss, that leverage magnifies losses, and that you can lose some or all of your capital. You knowingly and voluntarily assume all risks of using the Services and of trading, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. See the Risk Disclosure.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you; in that case such exclusions apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
If you are a consumer, you have rights — for example under the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, EU consumer law, or the Australian Consumer Law — that cannot be excluded and that apply in addition to this Agreement. The "as is" and "as available" language above is expressly subject to those non-excludable consumer guarantees.
14Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, and regardless of the theory of liability (contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, statute, or otherwise):
- No liability for trading losses. We are not liable for any trading, investment, or financial loss, lost profits, lost opportunity, or loss of capital arising out of or relating to the Services, your use of any software, tool, backtest, validation report, or verdict, or the acts or omissions of any broker, platform, network, or other third party.
- No indirect or consequential damages. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, goodwill, or anticipated savings, even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages.
- Aggregate cap. Subject to the non-excludable matters below, our total aggregate liability for the affected Service is limited to the greater of (a) the total amounts you paid us for that Service in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred US dollars (US$100). Services we provide free or for no consideration carry no liability, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
- Essential basis. These limitations are an essential basis of the bargain and apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (c) damage to your device or digital content caused by digital content we supplied where we failed to use reasonable care and skill; or (d) any liability or right that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law, including your non-waivable consumer rights. If you are a consumer, our liability to you is limited to reasonably foreseeable loss, and the fixed cap above applies only where permitted by applicable law.
15Indemnification
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Qubit Quant, [[ENTITY]], and their operators from and against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to your breach of these Terms, your infringement of a third party's rights, your unlawful use of the Services, or your fraud. We may assume the exclusive defence of any matter subject to indemnification, and you agree to cooperate. If you are a consumer, you are liable under this section only to the extent the loss was caused by your own breach or fault, and never beyond what consumer law permits.
16Termination
You may stop using the Services at any time, and you can ask to be removed from the beta list at any time. We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access or account at any time, with or without notice, including for breach of these Terms, suspected fraud or abuse, legal or security reasons, or discontinuation of a feature.
Effect of termination. On termination your licence ends and you must stop using the software and tools. Sections that by their nature should survive, including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law, survive termination.
17Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. For material changes, we will give reasonable advance notice by email or in-Service before they take effect, and you may stop using the Services and cancel before they do. Changes do not apply retroactively to a dispute that has already arisen. Minor changes, or changes required by law, may take effect on posting. We will revise the "Last updated" date whenever these Terms change. If you do not agree to a change, you must stop using the Services.
18Governing Law & Disputes
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Services are governed by the laws of [[JURISDICTION]], without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. You and we submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of [[JURISDICTION]] for any dispute not otherwise required to be resolved elsewhere by non-waivable law.
- Informal resolution first. Before starting any formal proceeding, we ask that you contact us at legal@qubitquantglobal.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for at least 30 days. This step is a request, not a precondition: it does not bar you from seeking urgent or injunctive relief or from exercising any statutory right, and does not suspend any limitation period that applies to your claim.
- Time limit. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any claim relating to the Services must be brought within one (1) year after it arises, or it is permanently barred.
- No class actions. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, disputes will be resolved on an individual basis, and you waive any right to participate in a class or representative action.
- Consumers. If you use the Services as a consumer, nothing in this section deprives you of the protection of the mandatory law of your country of residence or of your right to bring or defend proceedings in the courts of that country. The one-year limitation and the class or representative-action waiver apply only where you use the Services as a business, and not to consumers to the extent your local law provides otherwise.
19General
- Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Risk Disclosure, Privacy Policy, and Cookie Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us and supersede prior understandings on their subject matter.
- Order of precedence. If these documents conflict, the Terms control, except that the Risk Disclosure controls on any question of trading risk, and where you are a consumer any ambiguity in our standard terms is interpreted in your favour and your non-waivable rights always prevail.
- Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, it will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions stay in full force.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.
- Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them in connection with a reorganisation, merger, or sale.
- Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including outages, network failures, third-party service failures, or acts of government.
