These Terms of Service (the "Terms") form a binding agreement between you ("you", "your", "User") and EquiReason ("we", "us", "our", "EquiReason"), the operator of the EquiReason platform and related products and services. By creating an account, accessing, or using any part of the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the Risk Disclosure, the Acceptable Use Policy, the Refund Policy, and the Cookie Policy, each of which is incorporated into these Terms by reference (collectively, the "Agreement"). If you do not accept the Agreement in full, do not access or use the Service.
Effective date: 2026-05-15.
1. Definitions
For the purposes of the Agreement:
- 1.1 "Service" means the EquiReason website (equireason.com), associated subdomains, applications (web, mobile, API), data feeds, dashboards, alerts, computed scores, analytical models, and any related materials we make available.
- 1.2 "Content" means any text, data, signals, scores, summaries, charts, news, images, or other material delivered by the Service.
- 1.3 "User Content" means any content you submit to the Service (e.g. watchlists, notes, tags, configuration).
- 1.4 "Account" means the user account created on the Service.
- 1.5 "Subscription" means a recurring paid plan that provides access to specified features of the Service.
- 1.6 "Payment Provider" means Lemon Squeezy, LLC, the third-party merchant of record for all Subscriptions. Lemon Squeezy sells the Subscription to you, collects the fees, issues your invoice, and is responsible for collecting and remitting any applicable sales tax or VAT. EquiReason is not the seller of record for the transaction.
- 1.7 "Applicable Law" means all laws, regulations, rules, and orders applicable to the use of the Service in your jurisdiction.
2. The Service
2.1 Nature of the Service. EquiReason is an analytical and educational platform that aggregates publicly available market data, news, and other inputs to produce computed signals, scores, biases, and contextual summaries about financial instruments, sectors, and market conditions.
2.2 What the Service is not. The Service does not (a) execute trades or send orders to any market or broker, (b) hold customer funds or securities, (c) provide brokerage, custody, clearing, or settlement services, (d) provide personalised investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice, (e) constitute a solicitation or recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument, or (f) act as a fiduciary, investment adviser, broker-dealer, or financial planner.
2.3 Updates. We may add, remove, modify, suspend, or replace features of the Service at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes in advance.
3. No Investment Advice
3.1. Nothing on the Service constitutes investment advice, financial advice, trading advice, tax advice, legal advice, or any other form of advice. All Content is provided for informational and educational purposes only.
3.2. You are solely responsible for evaluating the merits and risks of any decision you make based on information available on the Service. Before acting on any Content you should consult a qualified financial professional licensed in your jurisdiction.
3.3. See the Risk Disclosure for important risks associated with trading and investing.
4. Eligibility
By using the Service you represent and warrant that:
- 4.1 you are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater);
- 4.2 you have full legal capacity to enter into a binding contract;
- 4.3 you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any jurisdiction subject to comprehensive sanctions administered by the United Nations, the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), or the Republic of Türkiye;
- 4.4 your use of the Service does not violate Applicable Law;
- 4.5 you have not been previously suspended or removed from the Service.
5. Account & Security
5.1 Registration. To access certain features you must create an Account by providing accurate, complete, and current information.
5.2 Credentials. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity that occurs under your Account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorised access or use at support@equireason.com.
5.3 Suspension. We may suspend or terminate any Account we reasonably suspect of compromise, misuse, fraud, or breach of the Agreement.
5.4 One Account per user. Each natural person may hold one Account unless we expressly authorise otherwise in writing.
6. Subscriptions, Billing & Renewals
6.1 Plans. The Service offers a free tier and one or more paid Subscription plans. The features of each plan, pricing, and billing cadence are described on the Pricing page.
6.2 Billing. Subscriptions are billed in advance by our Payment Provider. Card details are processed by the Payment Provider and are not stored on our servers. The charge appears on your card or bank statement as Lemon Squeezy, not as EquiReason. Your invoice and receipt are issued by Lemon Squeezy and are available at any time from the billing portal linked in your Account settings.
6.3 Auto-renewal. Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current rate until cancelled. You may cancel at any time from your Account settings or by contacting us.
6.4 Cancellation. Upon cancellation, access continues until the end of the current paid period. We do not pro-rate refunds for unused time except as set out in the Refund Policy or as required by Applicable Law.
6.5 Taxes. Prices are exclusive of applicable taxes (e.g. VAT, KDV) unless explicitly stated. Where we or our Payment Provider are required to collect taxes we will add them to your invoice.
6.6 Price changes. We may change Subscription prices with at least 30 days' prior notice via email or in-product banner. Changes apply from your next renewal.
6.7 Failed payments. If a renewal payment fails, your access does not stop immediately. The Payment Provider retries the charge over roughly two weeks, and we keep your paid features available for up to 16 days from the failed renewal, so that a card which simply expired does not cost you your access. If no payment succeeds within that window the Subscription ends and the Account returns to the free tier. Your saved lists and history are not deleted; only the paid features stop.
6.8 Purchases made in the iOS app. If you subscribe inside the EquiReason iOS app, the transaction is made with Apple, not with our Payment Provider. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your Apple Account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can view, manage, change or cancel the subscription at any time in Settings › your name › Subscriptions on your device. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. Refunds for App Store purchases are handled by Apple under Apple's own policies, not by us; our Refund Policy applies only to purchases made through our Payment Provider. A subscription bought on our website unlocks the same features in the iOS app at no extra charge; you do not need to buy it twice.
7. The iOS App (Apple-Required Terms)
This section applies only if you obtained the EquiReason application from the Apple App Store. Where it conflicts with another section of this Agreement, this section prevails for that application. It reflects the minimum terms Apple requires of every developer.
7.1 This Agreement is with us, not Apple. This Agreement is concluded between you and EquiReason alone, and not with Apple Inc. or its subsidiaries (“Apple”). We, not Apple, are solely responsible for the application and its content.
7.2 Scope of licence.

7.3 Maintenance and support. We are solely responsible for providing maintenance and support for the application. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance or support services.
7.4 Warranty. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, Apple has no warranty obligation with respect to the application. In the event of any failure of the application to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) paid for the application; to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the application, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty are our sole responsibility.
7.5 Product claims. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims of yours or of any third party relating to the application or your possession and use of it, including product liability claims, any claim that the application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
7.6 Intellectual property claims. In the event of any third-party claim that the application or your possession and use of it infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, we, not Apple, are solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement and discharge of that claim.
7.7 Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
7.8 Third-party beneficiary. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement in relation to the application, and upon your acceptance of this Agreement Apple has the right (and is deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this Agreement against you as a third-party beneficiary of it.
7.9 Contact. Questions, complaints or claims about the application should be sent to support@equireason.com.
