Terms of Service
Last updated: July 2026 · Effective immediately upon acceptance
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using TradeIQ Mentor ("the Service", "the App"), operated by Magoro Smart Systems ("we", "us", "our"), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, you must not access or use the Service.
These terms apply to all users of the Service, including browsers, registered users, and subscribers. Your continued use of the Service after any changes to these terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
2. Description of Service
TradeIQ Mentor is an AI-powered trading discipline and journaling application. The Service provides tools including but not limited to: market briefings, trade journaling, discipline scoring, AI-assisted mentoring, economic calendar data, and session notifications.
The Service is intended to support trader education and discipline. It is not a licensed financial advisory service, investment advisor, broker-dealer, or trading signal provider.
3. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age in your jurisdiction to enter into a binding agreement. The Service is not available to users in jurisdictions where such services are restricted or prohibited.
4. Account Registration & Security
To access certain features, you must register for an account using a valid email address or Google account. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.
You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or pose a security risk.
5. Subscription & Payment
TradeIQ Mentor offers free and paid subscription tiers. Paid subscriptions are billed monthly in South African Rand (ZAR) on a recurring basis unless cancelled. Prices are displayed at the time of purchase and may change with 30 days' notice.
All payments are processed securely through PayFast, a South African payment gateway. We do not store your payment card details — card information is handled entirely by PayFast. Refunds are provided at our discretion for billing errors or service failures. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; no further charges are made after cancellation.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Service to: (a) violate any applicable law or regulation; (b) transmit harmful, offensive, or fraudulent content; (c) attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract the source code; (d) use automated means to access the Service without our express permission; (e) impersonate another person or entity; (f) interfere with the operation of the Service.
7. Intellectual Property
All content, features, functionality, design, code, and branding of the Service — including but not limited to the TradeIQ Mentor name, logo, Solfeggio sound engine, AI mentor system, and discipline scoring methodology — are owned exclusively by Magoro Smart Systems and are protected by copyright, trademark, and intellectual property laws.
You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access and use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes. Nothing in these terms transfers any intellectual property rights to you.
8. AI-Generated Content
The AI Mentor Chat feature uses Claude AI (Anthropic) to generate responses. AI-generated content is provided for educational and informational purposes only. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or suitability of AI-generated responses for any specific trading situation.
You acknowledge that AI responses are not personalised financial advice and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for any trading decision.
9. Broker Connectivity & Automated Actions
If you connect a MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5 broker account, you authorise the Service to read your account data (balance, equity, open positions, trade history) and — where you have enabled Risk Shield / AutoShield features — to modify stop-loss levels on your open positions strictly according to the rules you configure. The Service never opens or closes positions on its own initiative and never places new trades.
Automated actions are performed on a best-effort basis. Execution is not guaranteed: connectivity interruptions, broker-side rejections (for example, a stop level too close to the market price), platform maintenance, or market conditions can prevent or delay a modification. Positions without a stop loss are not managed by automated features, and the Service will tell you so. You remain solely responsible for monitoring and managing your own positions at all times.
Broker connectivity is provided via MetaApi (agiliumtrade.ai). Your broker credentials are transmitted to MetaApi to provision the connection and are subject to MetaApi's terms and privacy policy. You may disconnect an account at any time from Settings.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Magoro Smart Systems shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including loss of profits, trading losses, loss of data, or loss of goodwill — arising from your use of or inability to use the Service.
Our total liability to you for any claims arising from these terms or your use of the Service shall not exceed the amount you paid for the Service in the 12 months preceding the claim.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that we determine violates these terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately.
12. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes arising from these terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of South Africa.
