These terms frame marketplace listings as software-license transactions for protected strategy logic and related metadata, not as financial products, advisory services, or copy-trading mandates.
Document summary
These terms frame marketplace listings as software-license transactions for protected strategy logic and related metadata, not as financial products, advisory services, or copy-trading mandates.
This document is structured in short sections so the main obligations are easier to scan.
Users should read the legal pages together with the practical product guidance.
Marketplace structure
- Marketplace buyers obtain a license to use protected trading software logic or strategy packages through OttoTrader.
- Marketplace sellers license software through the platform; they are not using OttoTrader to offer managed accounts, copy-trading, or personalized investment advice.
- OttoTrader may charge listing fees, seller subscriptions, or flat marketplace commissions that are unrelated to user profits or capital gains.
Independent seller content
- Listings are provided by independent sellers.
- OttoTrader may review listing materials, report completeness, ownership status, and marketplace-policy compliance. A verified badge does not mean OttoTrader endorses the strategy, certifies profitability, verifies suitability, or guarantees future performance.
- Strategy pages must clearly distinguish backtested, simulated, live-verified, seller-provided, and platform-computed metrics.
- Where OttoTrader displays seller identity or trader-status information, that information is provided to satisfy marketplace transparency and buyer-protection requirements.
Buyer rights and restrictions
- Buyers receive a limited software license for the purchased listing according to the applicable plan and entitlement state.
- Protected strategy internals, hidden controls, packaging, and seller intellectual property remain restricted.
- Buyers may not redistribute, reverse engineer, resell, or misrepresent protected marketplace strategies except where required by law.
Marketplace ranking and disclosures
- OttoTrader may order listings using editorial, quality, moderation, recency, operational, or commercial criteria, including seller compliance status and listing completeness.
- OttoTrader may label listings as draft, pending review, published, rejected, delisted, or archived to reflect the platform's moderation state.
- OttoTrader may provide standardized risk, validation, and disclosure fields so buyers can compare listings on a consistent basis.
Platform controls
- OttoTrader may remove, suspend, disable, or delist listings and sellers for policy, compliance, fraud, sanctions, IP, or safety reasons.
- OttoTrader may standardize listing disclosures, backtest labeling, risk notes, and claims formatting to reduce misleading marketplace behavior.
- OttoTrader may issue emergency disables, ownership suspensions, or delivery stops if a listing presents security, legal, or platform risk.
- OttoTrader may keep statement-of-reasons records, moderation notes, complaint logs, and takedown records in connection with marketplace enforcement.
Complaints, takedowns, and refunds
- Marketplace complaints and takedown requests can be submitted through OttoTrader's website complaint workflow or by contacting [email protected].
- Marketplace refund requests are reviewed case by case, taking into account delivery state, listing accuracy, fraud indicators, policy breaches, and any applicable mandatory consumer protections.
- Unless mandatory law provides otherwise, marketplace transactions are treated as digital-software license transactions and not as a transfer of underlying intellectual-property ownership.
