BY CREATING AN ACCOUNT, ACCESSING, OR USING ANY SERVICES PROVIDED BY ALAN GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF SERVICE. YOUR USE OF OUR SERVICES CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS. THESE TERMS CONTAIN A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS-ACTION WAIVER (SECTION 16), A DISCLAIMER THAT WE DO NOT PROVIDE INVESTMENT ADVICE (SECTION 4), AND EXPORT-CONTROL AND RESTRICTED-USE OBLIGATIONS (SECTION 7) THAT AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
ALAN Global Intelligence ("ALAN," "we," "us," or "our"), a sole proprietorship operating the retail platform at alanglobalintelligence.com and the commercial Global Intelligence Dashboard.
Any individual, entity, commercial desk, proprietary trading firm, family office, registered investment adviser, compliance team, intelligence analyst, government entity, or other person ("User," "Subscriber," "you," or "your") that creates an account for, accesses, subscribes to, or otherwise uses the Services.
The software, platforms, data feeds, analytics, tools, and content made available by ALAN, including without limitation: (a) the retail platform at alanglobalintelligence.com and the ALAN Terminal; (b) the commercial Global Intelligence Dashboard (web, desktop, or air-gapped deployment); (c) data feeds and analytics across financial, geopolitical, supply-chain, maritime, cyber, energy, space, and defense domains; (d) research, scoring, modeling, back testing, and scenario tools; (e) ALAN Picks, model portfolios, and curated intelligence; and (f) related documentation, updates, and support, as further described in writing or in an applicable Order or Enterprise Agreement.
Any written subscription order, statement of work, enterprise agreement, insertion order, or order form executed by both parties that describes specific Services, deployment, pricing, and terms. In the event of a conflict, a signed Enterprise Agreement controls over these Terms as to the subject matter it addresses.
The level of access and features for which a User has subscribed and paid, whether a retail tier or a commercial/enterprise tier, as set out in the Services or an applicable Order.
By using, accessing, creating an account for, or subscribing to any Services, you expressly consent to and accept these Terms in their entirety, including without limitation: the No Investment Advice provisions (Section 4); data and third-party-source disclaimers (Section 5); acceptable use restrictions (Section 6); export-control and restricted-use obligations (Section 7); subscription and billing terms (Section 8); limitations of liability (Section 9); indemnification (Section 10); and dispute resolution and arbitration (Section 16).
(a) Affirmative Assent. When you or any authorized user acting on your behalf creates an account, logs in, places an order, or otherwise accesses the Services, you may be required to click a button or check a box labeled "I Agree," "I Accept," "Create Account," "Subscribe," "Place Order," or similar, in proximity to a notice that such action constitutes agreement to these Terms.
(b) Electronic Signature. By taking such action, you electronically sign and agree that such click, check, or affirmative action constitutes your binding electronic signature to these Terms and any incorporated policies, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act ("E-SIGN Act," 15 U.S.C. 7001 et seq.) and Texas state law (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code 322.001 et seq.).
(c) Manifestation of Assent. You acknowledge that clicking "I Agree" or checking an acceptance box manifests unambiguous assent to be bound by these Terms, equivalent to a handwritten signature.
(d) Reasonably Conspicuous Notice. You acknowledge that notice of these Terms was presented in a reasonably conspicuous manner immediately proximate to the action button or checkbox, that you had a reasonable opportunity to review these Terms before manifesting assent, and that a hyperlink to the full text was provided at the point of acceptance.
(e) Record Retention and Evidentiary Presumption. ALAN may maintain electronic records of your acceptance, including date, time, IP address, user identification, and the version of Terms accepted. Such records maintained in the ordinary course of business shall be fully presumed authentic and admissible permitted by law as evidence of your electronic signature and agreement.
Your continued use of the Services after the Effective Date or any amendment constitutes ongoing acceptance, provided ALAN has given notice in accordance with Section 17.2 and you have had a reasonable opportunity to review the updated Terms.
The individual accepting these Terms represents and warrants that they have full authority to bind the applicable User. Any individual accessing the Services using a User's credentials is deemed authorized to bind that User, and the User is responsible for controlling access to its accounts and credentials.
You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Services. The Services are not directed to minors.
ALAN provides software and data products that fuse information across multiple domains into a single operational interface, including financial market data and analytics, geopolitical and supply-chain intelligence, sanctions and regulatory data, maritime and aviation tracking, energy and commodities data, cyber and infrastructure monitoring, space and orbital data, and defense-domain modeling tools. Specific features depend on your Subscription Tier and any applicable Order.
The Services provide information, data, analytics, scoring, modeling, and educational content. They are tools to support your own independent analysis and decision-making. They are not a substitute for professional judgment, independent verification, or qualified professional advice.
ALAN may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue features, data sources, or tiers from time to time. Where a change materially reduces a paid feature during a paid term, your remedy is governed by Section 8.
The Services may be unavailable due to maintenance, third-party outages, or causes beyond ALAN's control. ALAN does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation.
ALAN Intelligence is for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on this platform constitutes financial advice, investment advice, tax advice, legal advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security.
All financial data, AI-generated analyses, valuation models, scores, and ratings are provided "as is" and may contain errors, omissions, or delays. You should always do your own research and consult with a qualified financial advisor before making any investment decisions.
Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.
All content, data, scores, research, ALAN Picks, model portfolios, watchlists, backtests, scenario outputs, options analytics, congressional- and institutional-trading feeds, and other outputs of the Services are provided for informational and educational purposes only. They do not constitute, and should not be construed as, investment advice, a recommendation, an offer, or a solicitation to buy, sell, or hold any security, derivative, commodity, or other financial instrument.
The Services are impersonal and are not tailored to any User's particular financial situation, objectives, risk tolerance, or needs. Nothing in the Services takes into account your individual circumstances. You are solely responsible for evaluating the merits and risks of any decision and for your own investment, trading, and financial decisions.
Unless and except as expressly set forth in a separate written advisory agreement, ALAN is not acting as your investment adviser, broker-dealer, financial planner, or fiduciary, and no such relationship is created by your use of the Services. ALAN does not exercise discretionary authority over any account and does not execute transactions on your behalf.
ALAN makes no representation or warranty regarding the profitability, accuracy, or future performance of any output. Past performance, model performance, backtested results, and hypothetical results are not indicative of future results. Backtested and hypothetical performance has inherent limitations and does not reflect actual trading. Trading and investing involve substantial risk of loss.
You should consult your own licensed investment, tax, legal, and financial advisers before acting on any information obtained through the Services. You assume full responsibility for, and ALAN shall have no liability for, any decision made or action taken in reliance on the Services.
The Services incorporate data from public, primary, and third-party sources, which may include SEC EDGAR, OFAC SDN and consolidated lists, UK OFSI, EU consolidated sanctions list, the Federal Register, exchange and market-data providers.
All data and analytics are provided "as is" and "as available." Data may contain errors, omissions, delays, or inaccuracies, may be incomplete, and may differ from official or real-time sources. ALAN does not warrant the accuracy, timeliness, completeness, or fitness of any data for any purpose.
The Services are not a substitute for official compliance, sanctions-screening, due-diligence, navigational, safety, or regulatory processes. You must independently verify any sanctions, regulatory, maritime, aviation, or safety-critical information against the official primary source before relying on it. ALAN's sanctions and regulatory data are informational aids only and do not constitute a sanctions-screening or compliance program, and ALAN is not responsible for any compliance determination you make.
Certain data is licensed from third parties and is subject to those providers' terms, which may restrict redistribution, display, storage, or commercial use. Without limiting Section 6, you may not redistribute, resell, sublicense, retransmit, or publicly display real-time or delayed market data, exchange data, or other restricted third-party data except as expressly permitted by ALAN in writing and by the applicable third-party terms. You are responsible for obtaining any market-data, exchange, or professional-use licenses applicable to your use, and you acknowledge that redistribution of certain market data (including consolidated options or equity data) may trigger separate licensing obligations and fees owed to the relevant data authority or exchange.
ALAN is not liable for the actions, failures, errors, outages, or policies of third-party data sources, platforms, or providers. Your sole remedy for third-party data issues is against the third party.
You agree not to, and not to permit any person to:
ALAN may suspend or terminate access for any violation of this Section, with or without notice where ALAN reasonably believes ongoing access poses legal, security, or licensing risk.
You shall comply with all applicable U.S. and other export-control, economic-sanctions, and anti-boycott laws and regulations, including those administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce (EAR), the U.S. Department of State (ITAR), and the U.S. Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).
You represent and warrant that you and your authorized users: (a) are not located in, organized under, or ordinarily resident in any jurisdiction subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions or embargo; (b) are not identified on any U.S. or applicable government restricted-party, denied-party, or sanctions list (including the OFAC SDN List); and (c) will not access, use, export, re-export, or transfer the Services or any output in violation of applicable export-control or sanctions laws.
Where ALAN makes defense-domain features available, you shall use them only for lawful, authorized analytical, planning, research, training, or assessment purposes and only as permitted by applicable law and any applicable Order. You shall not use any feature to plan, direct, or carry out unlawful violence or to support any end-use prohibited by U.S. law or export-control regulation. ALAN may condition, restrict, gate, or deny access to defense-domain features in its discretion, including by jurisdiction, User type, or verification status.
Government, defense, and other regulated Users may be subject to additional terms set forth in a separate Order or Enterprise Agreement, which control over these Terms as to the subject matter they address.
Fees are charged according to the Subscription Tier and pricing in effect at the time of purchase or as set out in an applicable Order. ALAN may offer monthly or annual billing.
Unless otherwise stated, subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current rate until cancelled. By subscribing, you authorize ALAN (and its payment processors) to charge your payment method on a recurring basis. Where required by applicable automatic-renewal law, ALAN will provide the disclosures, acknowledgment, and cancellation mechanism mandated by such law.
You may cancel at any time through your account settings or by contacting support. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current billing period; access continues until then.
Except as expressly stated in a product-specific policy, fees are non-refundable. ALAN Echo one-time licenses carry a 30-day money-back guarantee as described in the Refund Policy and the ALAN Echo License Agreement, which control for Echo purchases. ALAN does not provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused access, or cancellation before the end of a paid term. Digital products (including ALAN Echo) are subject to the refund terms in their respective license agreements. See the ALAN Echo License Agreement and Refund Policy.
ALAN may change pricing effective as of your next renewal upon reasonable advance notice. Continued use after the change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
Fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, which are your responsibility. If payment fails or is past due, ALAN may suspend or terminate your access to the Services until the outstanding balance is resolved. You are responsible for keeping your payment method current.
THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ALL DATA, ANALYTICS, AND OUTPUTS, ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. ALAN DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY DATA OR OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, COMPLETE, OR PROFITABLE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALAN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, TRADING OR INVESTMENT LOSSES, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, OR LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF ALAN HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALAN'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO ALAN DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER. THIS CAP APPLIES IN THE AGGREGATE ACROSS ALL CLAIMS AND THEORIES AND APPLIES IN ARBITRATION AND IN COURT.
The limitations in this Section do not apply to: (a) ALAN's gross negligence or willful misconduct; (b) ALAN's breach of its confidentiality obligations; or (c) liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
You acknowledge that the fees reflect this allocation of risk and that ALAN would not provide the Services at the stated prices absent these limitations.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ALAN, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your breach of these Terms or any Order; (b) your violation of any law, including securities, export-control, sanctions, privacy, or market-data licensing laws; (c) your use of the Services or any output, including any investment, trading, compliance, or operational decision; (d) your misuse of data or any redistribution in violation of Section 5 or 6; (e) content or information you provide; or (f) your negligent or wrongful acts or omissions.
ALAN agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless you from third-party claims to the extent arising out of ALAN's gross negligence or willful misconduct, ALAN's breach of its confidentiality obligations, or a claim that ALAN-created software or content (excluding third-party data and User-provided content) infringes a third party's U.S. intellectual property rights.
The indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing, cooperate in the defense, and allow the indemnifying party to control the defense and settlement (provided no settlement imposing non-monetary obligations on the indemnified party is made without its consent).
"Confidential Information" means non-public information disclosed by one party to the other, including pricing and financial terms, proprietary methodologies, algorithms, scoring models and the data graph, business and security practices, and any information designated as confidential or that should reasonably be understood as confidential.
Each party shall maintain the confidentiality of the other's confidential information, use it only to perform under these Terms, not disclose it to third parties without consent, and protect it with at least reasonable care.
Obligations do not apply to information that is or becomes public through no breach, was rightfully known before disclosure, is independently developed, is rightfully obtained from a third party without restriction, or must be disclosed by law or legal process (with reasonable notice to the other party where legally permitted).
You represent and warrant that: you have authority to enter into these Terms; your use complies with all applicable laws; any information you provide is accurate; you are not a restricted or sanctioned party (Section 7.2); and you will use the Services only as permitted.
ALAN represents and warrants that it is validly existing, has authority to provide the Services, and will perform in a professional manner consistent with industry standards.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 12, ALAN MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
ALAN and its licensors own all rights, title, and interest in the Services, including all software, interfaces, the data graph, playbooks, scoring methodologies, models, ALAN Picks content, documentation, and all related intellectual property. No rights are granted except as expressly stated.
Subject to these Terms and payment of applicable fees, ALAN grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your internal use during your subscription term, within the seats and tier purchased.
You retain rights in content you provide. You grant ALAN a license to host, process, and use such content as necessary to provide the Services.
If you provide feedback or suggestions, you grant ALAN a perpetual, royalty-free license to use them without restriction.
ALAN collects and uses data regarding accounts, usage, and Service performance as described in its Privacy Policy. ALAN may use aggregated, de-identified data for benchmarking, research, and service improvement.
ALAN will comply with applicable data-protection laws, which may include the EU/UK GDPR (where applicable) and U.S. state privacy laws (e.g., the California Consumer Privacy Act). You are responsible for obtaining any consents required for data you submit.
The Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference. Where the Privacy Policy and these Terms conflict regarding personal data, the Privacy Policy controls as to that subject.
These Terms are effective when you first use the Services and continue until your subscription and account are terminated.
Either party may terminate by providing notice as provided in the applicable Order or, absent an Order, at the end of the then-current billing period. Specific engagements governed by an Enterprise Agreement may provide different termination terms.
ALAN may suspend or terminate immediately upon notice if you materially breach these Terms and fail to cure within ten (10) days, become insolvent, engage in unlawful conduct related to the Services, or where continued access would violate law or third-party licensing terms.
Upon termination, your license and access end, you shall pay outstanding amounts for the paid term, and each party shall return or destroy the other's confidential information. Sections 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 16, and 17 survive termination.
Except as required by law or stated in an Order, no refunds are provided upon termination.
Before initiating arbitration, the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute for thirty (30) days after written notice describing the dispute.
Except as provided below, any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules, before one arbitrator, seated in Dallas, Texas. The arbitrator's decision is final, and judgment may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party bears its own fees and costs unless the arbitrator awards fees as permitted by law.
The following are not subject to arbitration and may be brought in court: claims for injunctive or equitable relief to protect confidential information or intellectual property; small-claims-court matters; and claims that cannot be arbitrated under applicable law.
The arbitrator, not any court, has exclusive authority to resolve disputes about the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration provision, except as to the Class Action Waiver, the enforceability of which is for a court to decide.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DISPUTES WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. EACH PARTY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. This arbitration provision involves interstate commerce and is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. 1 et seq.).
To the extent any dispute is not arbitrated, the exclusive venue lies in the state or federal courts located in the state of Texas and the parties consent to personal jurisdiction there.
These Terms, together with any incorporated policies and executed Orders, are the entire agreement between you and ALAN regarding the Services and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements and representations on the subject.
ALAN may amend these Terms by posting updated Terms or providing notice. Amendments become effective thirty (30) days after notice (or upon your affirmative re-acceptance where ALAN requires it), unless you object in writing, in which case ALAN may terminate the relationship. No amendment to a signed Order is effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.
If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect, and the invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to be enforceable while preserving the parties' intent.
No waiver of any provision is a waiver of any other provision or a continuing waiver, and no delay in exercising a right operates as a waiver.
You may not assign these Terms without ALAN's prior written consent. ALAN may assign to an affiliate or successor. Any attempted assignment in violation of this provision is void.
The parties are independent contractors. These Terms create no partnership, joint venture, agency, employment, or fiduciary relationship.
Neither party is liable for any failure or delay due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, governmental action, cyberattacks, or failures of third-party platforms, data providers, or internet service providers.
Notices must be in writing and delivered by personal delivery, certified mail, recognized overnight courier, or email to the address on file. Notices to ALAN should be sent to: ALAN Global Intelligence at alanglobalintelligence@proton.me.
Headings are for convenience only. These Terms and any Order may be executed in counterparts and by electronic signature, each with the same legal effect as an original.
Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 13, 16, and 17) survive.
For questions regarding these Terms, please contact: alanglobalintelligence@proton.me
