Terms of Service

Last Updated: July 2025

1. Contracting Entity

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“Customer”) and Calamari Trading LLC (“Calamari”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) governing your access to and use of the Calamari Trading platform and related infrastructure services (the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Service Description

Calamari provides managed infrastructure and software configuration services for traders. Specifically, we provision and manage Windows Virtual Machines (VMs), install and configure MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) terminals, and set up trade copying software.

Calamari is strictly an infrastructure provider. We do not provide trading signals, investment advice, or account management services. You are solely responsible for all trading decisions executed on your infrastructure.

3. Customer Representations

By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:

  • You are at least 18 years of age.
  • You have the legal authority to enter into these Terms.
  • All accounts connected to the Services are owned by you.
  • Your use of the Services complies with all applicable laws and regulations.
  • Your use of the Services complies with the terms and conditions of your broker(s) and/or proprietary trading firm(s).

4. Account Ownership

The Services are designed exclusively for individuals managing their own trading accounts. You may not use the Services to manage accounts belonging to third parties, operate a PAMM/MAM structure, or provide copy-trading services to others.

5. Credential Responsibilities

To configure the Services, you must provide accurate login credentials for your MT4 and MT5 accounts. You are responsible for ensuring these credentials are correct. Trading-platform credentials are encrypted before storage in Calamari's segregated credential vault. Credentials are never stored in plaintext. Administrative access is restricted, time-limited and logged. You can rotate credentials at any time through the dashboard. Credentials are permanently deleted upon service cancellation. You must notify us immediately if you suspect your credentials have been compromised.

6. VM Isolation

Each customer receives an isolated Windows VM with allocated CPU, memory and storage. Customers do not share an operating-system environment or trading-terminal installation.

7. Third-Party Platforms and Compatibility

The Services interact with third-party platforms, including MT4, MT5, brokers, and proprietary trading firms. Calamari is technically compatible with standard MT4 and MT5 terminals. Firm, program and account eligibility is reviewed during onboarding. We do not control these third parties and are not responsible for their performance, uptime, rule changes, or any actions they take regarding your accounts. Compatibility with specific prop firms may change without notice. Customers remain responsible for confirming compliance with their broker and firm agreements.

8. Intellectual Property

Calamari retains all rights, title, and interest in and to the platform, dashboard, infrastructure management tools, and associated intellectual property. You retain all rights to your trading strategies, Expert Advisors (EAs), and trading data.

9. Data Ownership

You own all trading execution data generated on your provisioned VM. We process this data solely to provide the Services, populate your dashboard, and monitor system health.

10. Service Level

We target a 99.9% uptime for our infrastructure services. However, this is a target, not a guarantee. We may perform scheduled maintenance with advance notice. We are not responsible for downtime caused by third-party cloud providers or factors outside our control. Calamari continuously monitors supported VM and terminal health signals while the service is operational, including nights and weekends.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Calamari shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or use. We are an infrastructure provider and are not responsible for:

  • Trading losses or missed profits.
  • Broker execution speed, fills and slippage, which remain dependent on the broker, market conditions and network connectivity.
  • Broker or prop firm platform issues or execution delays.
  • Account breaches due to prop firm rule violations.
  • Copy-trade failures or software glitches.
  • Market conditions.
Our total liability for any claims arising under these Terms shall not exceed the amount you paid us for the Services in the three months preceding the claim.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Calamari Trading LLC, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including legal fees) arising out of your use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any broker or proprietary trading firm rules.

13. Termination

Either party may terminate this agreement with 30 days' written notice. We may terminate your access immediately for breach of these Terms. Upon cancellation, your infrastructure will be decommissioned. Trading-platform credentials and all associated data will be permanently deleted within 30 days of cancellation, or immediately upon your explicit request.

14. Refund Policy

We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee starting from the date your service is activated. If you are unsatisfied within this period, you may request a full refund. After 7 days, all payments are non-refundable.

15. Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to causes beyond their reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, or internet/infrastructure outages.

16. Beta and Roadmap Features

Features labeled as “Beta” or “Roadmap” are in active development. They are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind and may be modified or removed at our discretion.

17. Modifications

We reserve the right to modify these Terms. We will provide 30 days' notice for material changes by posting the updated Terms or via email. Your continued use of the Services constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

18. Governing Law

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by a mutually agreed-upon arbitration body.

19. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect.

20. Entire Agreement

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Calamari Trading LLC regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
