2. No Financial Advice (Disclaimer)
The content provided on ratioplotter.eu involves financial data, information, explanations, and charts. This information is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security or financial product. (2.1) Not Professional Advice: Plotting Tools is not a financial advisor, broker, or registered investment advisor. Nothing on this website constitutes financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. (2.2) Do Your Own Research: You should not make any financial decisions based solely on the information presented here. Financial markets are volatile and carry a high degree of risk.

3. Data Latency, Accuracy, and Third-Party Data Sources
ratioplotter.eu relies on third-party data feeds for prices, macroeconomic indicators, ratios, and financial metrics. These sources include, but are not limited to, Tiingo, the Federal Reserve, the IMF, and the World Bank. (3.1) Data Latency: You acknowledge that the data provided on the Websites may be delayed (by up to several days in the worst cases) and is not real-time. It should not be used for high-frequency trading or immediate execution decisions. (3.2) No Warranties on Data: We make no claims regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of the data. Tickers, prices, and calculated ratios may contain errors, omissions, or technical glitches. (3.3) Corporate Actions & Revisions: Financial data is inherently subject to adjustments. We and our data providers are not responsible for missing or inaccurate data regarding corporate actions (such as dividends, stock splits, or mergers) or historical revisions to macroeconomic data.
4. Disclaimer of Warranties ("As-Is")
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the websites, their content, and their data are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without any warranties of any kind.
5. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Plotting Tools, as well as its third-party data providers (including but not limited to Tiingo), shall not be liable for any damages, losses, or expenses (including direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential losses) arising from:
(5.1) Your use of the websites or inability to use the website.
(5.2) Any financial losses, trading losses, or lost profits incurred as a result of relying on information found on this site.

Limited Liability Cap: Notwithstanding the foregoing, the total aggregate liability of Plotting Tools to you for any direct financial damages proven to result directly from a defect in our tools or services shall not exceed the total amount paid by you to us for the Services (including any donations or subscription fees). You expressly agree that this is a reasonable and material term of these Terms, and you waive any right to seek recovery beyond this amount.
You use this website and its data entirely at your own risk.
6. Subscriptions and Payments
We use third-party platforms, such as Buy Me a Coffee and Creem.io, to process voluntary donations and subscription fees for our services.
(6.1) Third-Party Terms: When you make a transaction, your payment is processed securely by these providers, and you are also subject to their respective terms of service and privacy policy.
(6.2) Access License: Payment for a subscription grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access premium plotting tools and data visualizations. It does not grant ownership of the underlying data or the statistics generated by the system.
(6.3) Refund Policy: Donations are voluntary and non-refundable. Subscriptions may be cancelled at any time, but (partial) refunds for the remaining subscription period are not provided unless mandated by Dutch consumer law.
(6.4) Checkout Communications: By initiating a checkout process, you acknowledge that our Merchant of Record, Creem.io, may send you transactional emails, including reminders for incomplete purchases.

Plotting Tools retains all intellectual property rights to the Website, its proprietary algorithms, and the results of computations performed using our integrated data feeds (e.g., statistics, correlations, and $R^2$ values).
(7.1) Warehousing Rights: We reserve the right to warehouse, aggregate, and commercialize all statistical outputs generated through the use of public or paid ticker data available on the platform.
(7.2) No Exclusivity: Users do not have exclusive rights to the statistics generated during their sessions. We may share, sell, or redistribute these calculated metrics to other users or third parties.
8. User-Uploaded Data and "Mixed" Computations
For users who upload their own data sets for custom analysis, the following protections apply:
(8.1) Ownership of Uploaded Data: You retain full ownership of any data you upload to your private storage folder. Plotting Tools does not use, share, or claim ownership of your uploaded data.
(8.2) Encrypted Storage: Your data is stored in an access-controlled encrypted cloud storage environment (Amazon S3) to ensure its privacy and security.
(8.3) Mixed Computation Privacy: If a plot or calculation involves only user-uploaded data, or a mix of user-uploaded data and Websites-provided data, the results (including derived statistics) are temporarily cached only for your convenience and are not shared with other users in the platform, unless you explicitly provide a command to share them with your own defined list of users or user groups. Your uploaded data and its derivative plots and statistics remain private to you and to those users with whom you shared them.
9. Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. Continued use of the websites signifies your acceptance of the updated terms.
