Terms of Service | Secret Stocks

1. Disavowal of Advisory Status & Publisher's Exclusion

Secret Stocks operates strictly as a technology provider and financial data publisher. We rely unconditionally on the "publisher's exclusion" under US federal securities law. We are not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or financial institution. All AI-generated analyses, historical data, and directional signals are provided on an impersonal basis and do not constitute personalized investment advice.

2. Prohibition of Automated Trading & Data Scraping

The use of web crawlers, scraping bots, or direct API hooks to extract directional signals ("Buy," "Hold," "Sell"), ratios, or automated narratives from this platform for the purpose of algorithmic or high-frequency trading is strictly prohibited. You may not use our proprietary data pipelines or AI outputs to train external machine learning models or execute automated trades.

3. Redefined Force Majeure (Technological Failures)

In addition to traditional Force Majeure events (e.g., natural disasters, war), Secret Stocks explicitly classifies specific technological failures as exculpatory events. We shall not be held liable for any delays, inaccuracies, or platform downtime resulting from:

Third-party API latency or data outages (e.g., Financial Modeling Prep API failures).
System outages, server downtime, or routing issues.
Large Language Model (LLM) behavioral shifts, concept drift, or sudden degradation in AI generation quality ("AI hallucinations").

4. Mandatory Binding Arbitration & Class Action Waiver

Please read this section carefully, as it affects your legal rights.

By using this platform, you agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, the AI-generated outputs, or your use of the platform shall be resolved exclusively through mandatory binding arbitration, rather than in court.

Class Action Waiver: You further agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be conducted solely on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated, or representative action. You waive your right to participate in any class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration against Secret Stocks and its operators.

5. User Consent (Clickwrap Agreement)

By continuing to access or use the Secret Stocks platform, interacting with our UI elements (including dismissing our AI warning modals), or consuming our published content, you explicitly acknowledge and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service in their entirety.
