Purchases and Refunds
Through the Site, The Trading Analyst offers both individual products for sale and subscription, membership or other periodic fee-based services. For individual products purchased through the Site, a valid credit card will be required to complete the purchase and the amount of the purchase will be charged to the credit card concurrently with the completion of the purchase on the Site. When you purchase an individual product, you will receive a streaming or digital version; no physical copies of products or other materials will be shipped or provided to you.
When purchasing subscription, membership or other periodic fee-based services on the Site, a valid credit card will be required for billing purposes. You hereby consent to, acknowledge and allow The Trading Analyst to store (or cause a third party to store on behalf of The Trading Analyst) such payment information and agree to the following policies and procedures for payment of subscription, membership or other periodic fees related to the Site.
Immediately upon signing up for an account or other periodic fee-based services on the Site, the fees associated with the first period or term of your selected account or service (monthly, quarterly, annual, as applicable) will be charged to such credit card. Within ten (10) business days prior to the expiration of the initially selected period or term, and each subsequent such period or term until your account or other periodic service is cancelled in accordance with these Terms and Conditions, the fees associated with your selected account or service for the following applicable period or term will be automatically renewed, and an amount for your renewed account or service will be billed and charged to such credit card by The Trading Analyst in accordance with the Site’s then-current pricing schedule. If the credit card associated with your account or service should expire, terminate or any payment is otherwise rejected by the issuing company, The Trading Analyst may immediately terminate your account or service. It is solely your responsibility to ensure (1) that valid credit card information remains on file for your account or service and the automatic renewal thereof, and (2) that a valid email address remains on file for your account or service for any communications from The Trading Analyst related thereto.
All payments made to The Trading Analyst in connection with any product purchased or account or service, and any renewal thereof, are non-refundable; and The Trading Analyst does not offer, and is not required to provide, any refunds or credits for any reason, including, without limitation, satisfaction or your failure to cancel your account or service prior to its automatic renewal. The Trading Analyst reviews all refund requests on a case-by-case basis. We encourage any member who is not satisfied with their experience to reach out to our customer support team (support@thetradinganalyst.com) to determine if a refund, or partial refund, is warranted. However, there is no circumstance in which you will be entitled to, or The Trading Analyst is required to provide, a refund or credit for any reason, including, without limitation, satisfaction or your failure to cancel your account or service prior to its automatic renewal. In its sole discretion, The Trading Analyst may provide a refund if (i) The Trading Analyst terminates your account or service without cause before the end of a period or term for which you have previously paid in full, or (ii) you are seeking a refund otherwise specifically provided for by these Terms and Conditions or other written policies of the Site and/or The Trading Analyst then in effect and fully applicable. Please note: While TTA normally considers refund requests, we are unable to offer refunds for purchases made during our highly discounted Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales.
All fees charged by The Trading Analyst in connection with any product purchased or account or service of the Site are exclusive of any taxes, levies, or duties imposed by any taxing authority, and you shall be, and hereby are, responsible for the payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties arising from your purchase of products or use of the Site.

Investments and Results
The purchase and sale of securities involves a high degree of risk. It is speculative and suitable only for persons who have substantial financial resources. The purchase and sale of securities should only be conducted by persons who understand and accept the risks involved therewith and who have independently reviewed and determined their acceptance and suitability of these risks and the financial and tax consequences thereof. Only persons who are able to bear the risk of substantial or complete loss of funds should engage in the purchase and sale of securities.
The Trading Analyst, and the content and information contained on the Site, and in other products and services of The Trading Analyst, do not indicate or guaranty any predictable, general, specific or other results. The purchase and sale of securities, and any other investment activity, involves a high degree of risk, and a number of factors could materially and adversely affect the results and lead to a substantial or complete loss of an investment.
As more fully set forth herein, The Trading Analyst, and its directors, officers, shareholders, employees, agents and affiliates, make no representation, warranty or guaranty as to the validity, adequacy, timeliness, accuracy, reliability or completeness of any data, content or information. You should independently analyze, review and confirm any such data, content or information.
The Trading Analyst may express or utilize testimonials or descriptions of past performance, but such items are not indicative of future results or performance, or any representation, warranty or guaranty that any result will be obtained by you. Your results may differ materially from those expressed or utilized by The Trading Analyst due to a number of factors.
CFTC RULE 4.41 Some, but not all, of these results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, some of these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because some of these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or-over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
It is hoped that should we ever have any differences, mail correspondence. However, should we be unable to seek resolution within a reasonable time, you agree now that that the only method of legal dispute resolution that will be used is binding arbitration before a single arbitrator, selected jointly, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Rules. Prior to seeking arbitration, you must send an e-mail to me at thetradinganalyst@gmail.com and include all of your reasons for dissatisfaction with your Program. You understand and agree now that the only remedy that can be awarded to you through arbitration is full refund of your Payment made to date. No other actions or financial awards of consequential damages, or any other type of damages, may be granted to you. We both agree now that the decision of the arbitrator is final and binding, and may be entered as a judgment into any court having the appropriate jurisdiction.
By purchasing our Programs, Products or Services you are agreeing to a modification of the statute of limitations such that any arbitration must be begun within one (1) year of the date of your e-mail to me referenced above or you waive the right to seek dispute resolution by arbitration or to take any other legal action.
You also agree that should arbitration take place, it will be held in Orange County in the State of California where my business is located, and the prevailing party shall be entitled to all reasonable attorneys’ fees and all costs necessary to enforce the decision of the arbitrator.
In the event of a dispute between us, you agree to not engage in any conduct or communications, public or private, including on social media, designed to disparage us, our Company, or any of our Programs, Products or Services. Where requested by law or arbitration, of course, you are not prohibited from sharing your thoughts and opinions as a part of the legal process.
If any terms of these Terms of Use are construed to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other term which shall be given full force and effect.
