The deal, in plain English.

By creating an account or using Vecktor (“we”, “us”, “the service”), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the service. These terms form a binding agreement between you and Vecktor (operated by its founder, registration in progress) (“Vecktor”), operated from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. Our full entity and contact details are on the Contact page.

Vecktor is a software platform that lets you backtest, deploy, and monitor crypto trading strategies on a connected exchange account. Vecktor is a non-custodial tool. We are not a broker, exchange, investment adviser, portfolio manager, research analyst, or fund. We do not provide investment advice or recommendations. All trading decisions are entirely yours.

• You must be at least 18 years old
• You must be legally permitted to trade cryptocurrency derivatives in your jurisdiction
• You must hold a valid, KYC-compliant account on a supported exchange (currently Delta Exchange India)
• You may not use the service if you are located in a jurisdiction where crypto derivatives trading is prohibited

Nothing in Vecktor (including strategy templates, backtest results, natural-language builder outputs, payoff diagrams, or any recommendation surface) constitutes investment, financial, legal, or tax advice. Backtest results are historical simulations. Past performance does not guarantee or indicate future results. You are solely responsible for your trading decisions and their outcomes.

Vecktor never holds, controls, or has authority over your funds. You provide API keys to your own exchange account, with permissions you control. We strongly recommend you disable withdrawal permissions on any API key you connect. You are solely responsible for the security of your exchange account and API credentials.

Backtesting, deploying and running bots on Vecktor are free. A few advanced AI features (Compose, Talk-to-the-backtest, and the Optimizer) run on AI credits; during the beta every account receives a free monthly credit allowance, with no card required. Vecktor does not charge or add to the trading fees you pay on your exchange, those are set and collected by the exchange itself. If and when we introduce paid credit packs or subscription plans, our Refund & Cancellation Policy governs billing, cancellation, and refunds, and we will give clear notice before any charge applies.

• Cryptocurrency prices are highly volatile. You may lose your entire investment.
• Leveraged trading amplifies both gains and losses. Position liquidation is possible.
• Short options strategies (including Short Straddle, Short Strangle) carry theoretically unlimited loss potential.
• Automated strategies may malfunction due to market conditions, exchange outages, API rate limits, connectivity issues, or unforeseen bugs.
• Backtest results use historical data; regime changes may render strategies unprofitable.
• Monte Carlo and walk-forward validations reduce (but do not eliminate) overfitting risk.
• Kill-switches and stop-losses may not execute in extreme volatility or during exchange downtime.

• All trades placed through your connected API keys are your responsibility
• You must comply with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction, including India's FEMA, the Income Tax Act, and FIU-IND guidance on Virtual Digital Assets (VDAs)
• You must monitor your active bots and positions, even with paper mode, testnet, or kill-switches enabled
• You are responsible for understanding and reporting your Indian tax obligations. Per Delta Exchange India's guidance, crypto futures and options profits are generally taxed at your income-tax slab and the 30% VDA tax and 1% TDS apply to spot VDA transfers rather than F&O; rules can change, so consult a CA for your situation
• You must not share your Vecktor account with others
• You must keep your login credentials, API keys, and TradingView webhook secrets confidential

You may not use Vecktor to:

• Manipulate markets (wash trading, spoofing, layering, pump-and-dump)
• Circumvent exchange rate limits, KYC, or anti-abuse systems
• Trade on behalf of third parties without their knowledge (pooled funds, copy trading not authorised on Vecktor today)
• Reverse-engineer or scrape our service beyond documented APIs
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems or other users' data
• Use the platform if you are sanctioned or resident in a sanctioned jurisdiction

Vecktor is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any trading losses, lost profits, lost data, system downtime, exchange outages, slippage, latency, execution failures, missed kill-switch triggers, or any consequential, indirect, or punitive damages. If a court nevertheless finds us liable, our total aggregate liability for all claims is capped at ₹10,000 (INR ten thousand).

We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. Scheduled maintenance, third-party outages (Supabase, Delta Exchange, cloud providers), and bugs may cause downtime. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature at any time with reasonable notice for material changes.

You may delete your account at any time from Settings. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in abuse, or put the platform or other users at risk. On termination, your stored API keys are deleted; historical trade data may be retained as required by law.

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be notified by email and/or prominent notice in the app. Continued use of the service after the notice period constitutes acceptance.

These terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising under these terms shall first be addressed by good-faith negotiation. If unresolved within 30 days, disputes shall be submitted to binding arbitration in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The language of arbitration will be English.
