1. Description of Service

DCAUT provides a platform with tools and technologies for automated and semi-automated cryptocurrency trading. Our services include, but are not limited to:

Access to pre-built and customizable quantitative trading strategies.
A backtesting engine to simulate strategy performance against historical data.
Tools to connect with third-party cryptocurrency exchange accounts via API keys.
Automated execution of trading signals based on user-configured strategies.

DCAUT is a technology provider. We do not provide financial advice, investment advice, brokerage services, or portfolio management.

DCAUT does NOT hold, custody, or manage your funds. All cryptocurrency assets remain in your exchange accounts at all times. We only provide software tools that connect to exchanges via API. We cannot and do not transfer, withdraw, or access your funds.

1.1 Geographic Restrictions

The Service is NOT available to residents or citizens of any jurisdiction where cryptocurrency trading or the use of our Service is prohibited by applicable law.

By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any such prohibited jurisdiction.

1.2 Sanctions and Export Controls

You may not access or use the Service where prohibited by applicable sanctions or export control laws. You represent and warrant that you are not a sanctioned person and are not located in any comprehensively sanctioned country or region, and that you will not use the Service to evade sanctions, for terrorist financing, or for any illegal purpose. We reserve the right to screen, refuse, or terminate Service for sanctions/export compliance.

2. Risk Disclosure & No Financial Advice

You acknowledge and agree that:

High-Risk Activity: Trading cryptocurrencies is extremely risky. Prices are highly volatile, and you may lose your entire investment. You should not trade with funds you cannot afford to lose.
No Guarantee of Profit: Past performance of any trading strategy, whether in backtesting or live trading, is not indicative of future results. DCAUT does not guarantee any specific outcome or profit.
Software Risks: All software has inherent risks. The Service may contain bugs, errors, or suffer from interruptions. DCAUT is not responsible for any financial losses incurred due to software malfunction, network latency, or API connectivity issues with third-party exchanges.
Not Financial Advice: All content, tools, and strategies provided through the Service are for informational and educational purposes only. They do not constitute financial, investment, or trading advice. You are solely responsible for your own investment decisions and for evaluating the risks associated with using the Service. You should consult with a qualified financial professional before making any investment decisions.

Tips for risk self‑management (not financial advice):

Start small or in simulation and progressively validate strategies;
Use stop losses and risk parameters; avoid excessive leverage;
Review performance periodically; understand drawdowns, slippage, and fees;
Manage API permissions and key storage per your exchange’s security best practices.

3. User Accounts

Eligibility: You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into binding contracts to use the Service.
Account Creation: You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process.
Account Security: You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials, including your password and any API keys used to connect to third-party exchanges. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account. You are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your account, whether or not you have authorized them.
API Keys: DCAUT requires read-only and trade execution API keys to connect to your exchange accounts. We will NEVER request withdrawal permissions. IP whitelisting is a security feature provided by cryptocurrency exchanges, NOT by DCAUT. DCAUT has no technical ability to control, enforce, or verify IP whitelisting settings on your exchange accounts. You are solely and exclusively responsible for: (i) configuring correct API key permissions on exchanges; (ii) enabling and maintaining IP whitelisting (if available from your exchange); (iii) securing your API keys and exchange account credentials. DCAUT is NOT liable for any losses arising from: (i) unauthorized access to your API keys or exchange accounts; (ii) compromised API keys due to disabled or misconfigured IP whitelisting; (iii) any security breaches of your exchange accounts, regardless of cause.
Account Use and Sharing: Your account is personal to you. You may not sell, transfer, assign, or share your account or any access credentials with any other person or entity without our prior written consent.

3.1 No Custody of Funds

DCAUT is a technology service provider only. We do NOT:

Hold, custody, or have access to your cryptocurrency or fiat currency
Control your exchange accounts or wallets
Have withdrawal permissions for your funds
Act as a broker, custodian, or financial institution

All trading activities are executed directly on third-party exchanges using your API keys. Your funds remain in your exchange accounts under your sole control at all times. DCAUT cannot transfer, freeze, or access your assets in any way.

3.2 Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML)

To comply with applicable laws and regulations:

All users must complete email verification.
Paid subscription users must complete identity verification (KYC), including providing government-issued identification.
We reserve the right to request additional documentation or information at any time.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that fail to complete or pass verification; where feasible, we will endeavor to provide prior notice and guidance on next steps (without prejudice to Section 10).
Use of the Service for money laundering, terrorist financing, or any illegal activity is strictly prohibited.

3.3 Electronic Communications and E‑Signatures

You agree that we may provide agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications (collectively, “Communications”) to you electronically. You have the ability to access and retain electronic Communications, and you agree that such Communications have the same legal effect as paper. You consent that your acknowledgment by checkbox, clicking “I Agree,” or similar actions constitute your electronic signature and agreement. If you require a paper copy, you may contact us to request one (reasonable costs may apply).

4. Fees, Payments, and Subscriptions

Subscription Plans: Access to certain features of the Service may require an active subscription. We offer various subscription plans with different features and pricing.
Billing: Subscription fees are billed in advance on a recurring basis (e.g., monthly or annually). You authorize us to charge your chosen payment method for the recurring fees.
Changes to Fees: We reserve the right to change our subscription fees at any time. We will provide you with reasonable prior notice of any price changes.
No Refunds: All fees are non-refundable except as required by law or as explicitly stated in our refund policy.
Automatic Renewal and Cancellation: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle unless cancelled. You can cancel at any time via the account settings; your cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current billing period, and you will retain access until that time.
Taxes: Fees are exclusive of taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments (including VAT/GST/sales/use/withholding). You are responsible for any such taxes associated with your purchases, except for taxes based on our net income.
Refund Policy Reference: Refund eligibility and process, if any, are governed by our Refund Policy.
Payment Failures and Suspension: If we are unable to charge your payment method, you authorize us to retry within a reasonable period; continued failures may result in suspension, restriction, or downgrade of your access until fees are paid.
Trials and Promotions: Any free trials or promotional pricing are subject to the specific offer terms and may automatically renew at the then‑current standard rate unless you cancel before the end of the promotional period.
We will, where practicable, provide reasonable reminders of important subscription changes or upcoming renewals (e.g., by email or in‑product notices).

5. Intellectual Property Rights

All rights, title, and interest in and to the Service, including all software, text, graphics, logos, and other content (excluding your personal data and API keys), are and will remain the exclusive property of DCAUT and its licensors.

We carefully select and continually evaluate third‑party sources but cannot guarantee their continuous availability or accuracy. Market and third‑party data: the Service may display or rely on market data, prices, order books, volumes, indices, or other information provided by third parties. Such data may be delayed, incomplete, inaccurate, or interrupted. DCAUT makes no warranties regarding third‑party data or the results of its use. You should independently verify data and assume the risks and consequences arising from its use.
