These Terms explain the rules for using VelociBridge, outline what you can expect from the software, and describe your responsibilities when copying trades across accounts.
1. Acceptance & Agreement
VelociBridge is a product operated by PolarGrid Technologies LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). VelociBridge provides desktop software that replicates futures trades between supported platforms. By installing, accessing, or using VelociBridge, you agree to these Terms and any supplemental policies referenced here. If you are accepting on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization.
- The software is under active development and may change or be discontinued without notice.
- We may update these Terms as the product evolves; the "Last updated" date reflects the latest revision.
- If you disagree with any changes, discontinue use; continued access constitutes acceptance.
VelociBridge is intended solely for copying exchange-traded futures activity. Do not attempt to use the software for equities, options, forex, or crypto instruments.
2. Eligibility & Accounts
VelociBridge is intended for sophisticated traders familiar with futures markets.
- You must be at least 18 years old and legally permitted to use copy-trading tools in your jurisdiction.
- You are responsible for maintaining accurate registration details and for keeping credentials secure.
- We may request additional information to validate eligibility or comply with applicable law.
3. License & Acceptable Use
We grant you a limited, revocable, non-transferable license to install and use the software for your personal or business trading activities.
- Do not reverse engineer, decompile, or modify the software except where permitted by law.
- Do not use VelociBridge to violate exchange, broker, or regulatory rules.
- Do not attempt to access other users' data or interfere with VelociBridge infrastructure.
3.1 Desktop Software License (EULA)
The VelociBridge desktop application is licensed, not sold. Your subscription grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license subject to the following terms:
- One Device Per License: Each subscription permits installation and use on one (1) device at a time. You may transfer your license to a different device by first deauthorizing the current device through your account dashboard.
- No Redistribution: You may not distribute, sublicense, rent, lease, or lend the software to any third party.
- No Reverse Engineering: You may not decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer, or attempt to derive the source code of the software, except where such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law.
- Updates: We may automatically install updates, patches, or new versions without prior notice. Such updates are subject to these Terms.
- Termination: Your license terminates immediately upon cancellation of your subscription or termination of your account. Upon termination, you must uninstall and delete all copies of the software.
All intellectual property rights in the software remain with PolarGrid Technologies LLC. This license does not grant you any ownership rights.
Open Source Components: The software includes third-party open-source components distributed under their respective licenses. See THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES.txt included with the software distribution for details.
4. Services & Dependencies
VelociBridge orchestrates futures trade replication between supported trading platforms such as NinjaTrader or Quantower. Execution quality depends on your workstation, internet connection, broker APIs, and upstream signal quality. We may integrate third-party data feeds, messaging layers, or infrastructure providers; those services are governed by their own terms.
5. Compliance & Financial Responsibility
VelociBridge is desktop software; it does not execute trades on our servers, hold customer funds, or provide investment advice. You remain fully responsible for:
- Maintaining brokerage relationships, platform licenses, market data subscriptions, and regulatory registrations required for your trading activity.
- Ensuring each leader or follower account is authorized for the futures strategies, products, and position sizes you configure.
- Testing in a non-production environment before trading live funds and monitoring executions for discrepancies.
- Using the software solely for listed futures markets and instruments; it is not designed for equities, options, forex, or crypto products.
Account Authorization: You represent and warrant that you are only using VelociBridge with accounts you control and are authorized to access under your broker or platform terms.
No Investment Advice: VelociBridge does NOT provide investment advice, trade signals, or trading recommendations. The software merely replicates trades you configure. Any trading decisions remain solely your responsibility. We are not a registered broker-dealer, Futures Commission Merchant (FCM), Introducing Broker (IB), Commodity Trading Advisor (CTA), or investment adviser.
5.1 Prop Firm Compliance
Many traders use VelociBridge with proprietary trading firm ("prop firm") evaluation or funded accounts. You acknowledge and agree that:
- You are solely responsible for verifying that your prop firm permits trade copying software.
- Some prop firms (e.g., Earn2Trade) prohibit copy trading entirely; others may limit the number of simultaneous accounts or flag identical trades across accounts.
- Prop firms may use automated systems to detect trade copying, which could result in account termination, payout denial, or permanent bans.
- VelociBridge does not guarantee compliance with any prop firm's rules, policies, or terms of service.
- You assume all risk of prop firm account termination, payout denial, or other adverse actions resulting from your use of VelociBridge.
VelociBridge is not responsible for any losses, denied payouts, or account terminations imposed by prop firms.
5.2 Assumption of Risk
YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT:
- Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss, including the possibility of losing more than your initial investment.
- The software may contain bugs, defects, or errors that could cause trades to fail, duplicate, execute at incorrect prices, or not execute at all.
- Network latency, broker outages, platform issues, and other technical factors beyond our control may affect trade replication.
- You assume all risk of financial loss resulting from your use of VelociBridge, regardless of whether such loss is caused by software malfunction, user error, market conditions, or any other factor.
- You have read and understand the Risk Disclosure and accept all risks described therein.
Mandatory Demo Testing: You agree to thoroughly test VelociBridge on demo, simulation, or paper trading accounts before using it with live funds. By using VelociBridge with live trading accounts, you represent that you have completed such testing and accept all associated risks.
Force Majeure: VelociBridge shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: broker or exchange outages, API changes or restrictions, internet service disruptions, power failures, natural disasters, government actions, or cyberattacks.
6. Fees & Payment
VelociBridge is a paid subscription service. By subscribing, you agree to the following:
- Billing: Subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annually). Payment is due at the start of each billing period.
- Money-Back Guarantee: We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on your first paid subscription charge only. Subscription renewals are non-refundable. Refunds are limited to one per customer. For complete details, see our Refund Policy.
- Cancellations: You may cancel at any time through the same platform where you purchased (e.g., your account dashboard or the payment provider's billing portal). Cancellation stops future billing, and you retain access through the end of your current billing period.
- Price Changes: We may change subscription prices with at least 30 days' notice. Continued use after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
- Taxes: Taxes may be added at checkout where required by law. Responsibility for calculating, collecting, and remitting taxes depends on the payment provider and the customer's location.
- Payment Processing: Payments are processed by a third-party payment provider. Depending on the checkout method, the provider may act as the merchant of record (MoR) or as our payment processor. Your receipt and payment statement will show the name of the entity that processed your payment.
7. Data & Privacy
We collect limited account details, telemetry, and support communications to operate the service. Our Privacy Policy describes categories of data, processing purposes, lawful bases, retention, and your choices. By using the software, you consent to that processing.
8. Intellectual Property & Feedback
VelociBridge retains all rights, title, and interest in the software, documentation, and trademarks. Providing feedback, diagnostics, or feature ideas grants us a perpetual, royalty-free license to use that input to improve the service without obligation.
9. Third-Party Services
VelociBridge may rely on brokers, data vendors, messaging relays, or cloud providers to deliver functionality. We are not responsible for the actions or omissions of those third parties, and you must maintain compliant accounts with them.

10. Warranty Disclaimer
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

11. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, PolarGrid Technologies LLC will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, or data, even if advised that such losses were possible. Our aggregate liability for direct damages arising out of or relating to the software will not exceed the greater of (a) one hundred (100) U.S. dollars, or (b) the total subscription fees paid by you to PolarGrid Technologies LLC in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. This limitation does not apply to liability arising from our gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud.
12. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless PolarGrid Technologies LLC, its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the software, violation of these Terms, or infringement of third-party rights.
13. Termination & Suspension
We may suspend or terminate access at any time for maintenance, security reasons, or suspected misuse. You may stop using the software at any time. Upon termination, the license granted to you ends, but sections that by their nature should survive (for example, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, and dispute resolution) will remain in effect.
14. Governing Law & Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
Arbitration Agreement: Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of VelociBridge will be resolved through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may seek injunctive relief to protect intellectual property or confidential information. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AGREE TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTES WITH POLARGRID TECHNOLOGIES LLC (OPERATING AS VELOCIBRIDGE) THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION ONLY. YOU WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS, CLASS ARBITRATIONS, COLLECTIVE ACTIONS, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDINGS OF ANY KIND. If this waiver is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration agreement shall be void.
Small Claims Exception: Either party may bring qualifying claims in small claims court.
