1. Introduction and Agreement

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User", "you", or "your") and Pelican Trustmere ("Pelican Trustmere", "Platform", "we", "us", or "our"). By accessing, browsing, registering for, or operating the software, analytical tools, or automated interfaces provided by Pelican Trustmere, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all stipulations outlined herein.

If you do not agree with any component of these Terms, you must immediately cease accessing the platform and discontinue using our technological tools and computational services.

2. Nature of the Service

Pelican Trustmere supplies users with algorithmic software protocols, automated data analytics, and computational market aggregation interfaces designed for digital asset research and execution. Pelican Trustmere does not act as a broker-dealer, custodian, asset manager, or financial investment advisor.

All quantitative calculations, algorithmic indicators, predictive analytics, and automated logic generated by the platform are intended strictly for educational, research, and algorithmic workflow facilitation. You maintain sole and undelegated discretion over any capital allocation or trade parameters initiated through third-party exchanges or independent execution providers connected via API.

3. Eligibility and User Representation

To use Pelican Trustmere, you must satisfy the following legal criteria:

  • You are at least 18 years of age or have attained the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction.
  • You possess the full capacity and legal authority to enter into these binding Terms.
  • You are not a resident of, nor located in, any territory subjected to comprehensive financial sanctions, trade embargoes, or regulatory restrictions prohibiting participation in digital asset technologies.
  • Your use of our algorithmic interfaces complies fully with all applicable local, national, and international laws, regulations, and statutory obligations.

4. Risk Disclosure and No Financial Advice

Digital currency and derivatives trading involve substantial financial risk, including the potential volatility of underlying network values and the absolute loss of initial deposit capital. Past simulated performance or algorithmic backtesting metrics do not reflect, correlate with, or guarantee future outcomes in live market conditions.

No content, tool, or algorithmic feedback produced by Pelican Trustmere constitutes financial advice, tax guidance, or regulated investment recommendations. You should independently evaluate your financial situation and risk appetite, and consult an accredited, independent financial advisor before risking trading balances.

5. User Accounts and Security Obligations

When you create an account or link third-party execution credentials to Pelican Trustmere, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate, current, and complete operational details.
  • Maintain the absolute confidentiality of your credentials, password hashes, and API authentication tokens.
  • Accept full responsibility for all activities, executions, and computational routines initiated under your account credentials.
  • Notify our security personnel immediately upon detecting any unauthorised account access or security anomalies.

6. Intellectual Property Rights

All software architectures, algorithmic logic, user interface code, visual styles, trade names, logos, technical documentation, and proprietary methodologies underlying Pelican Trustmere remain the sole intellectual property of Pelican Trustmere and its licensors. You are granted a personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable licence to access the platform solely for internal personal use, without any right to copy, reverse-engineer, decompile, or redistribute the source software.

7. Prohibited Practices

Users shall not engage in any activity that impairs, compromises, or attempts to circumvent the operational integrity of the platform. Prohibited activities include, without limitation: deploying malicious scripts, conducting denial-of-service attempts, attempting to exploit latency differentials across third-party liquidity providers, deploying wash trading or illicit market manipulation patterns, or misrepresenting affiliation with Pelican Trustmere.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pelican Trustmere, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and software providers shall not be held liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. This includes, without limitation, direct loss of profits, liquidation events, API connection dropouts, price slippage, platform downtime, or data corruption arising from your interaction with our system or connected third-party exchanges.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms, including any question regarding their existence, validity, or termination, shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of England and Wales.
