1. Acceptance of these terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your subscription to and use of Value Options Letter (“we,” “us,” or the “Publication”). By creating an account, starting a free trial, or paying for a subscription, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not subscribe.
2. What Value Options Letter is
Value Options Letter is a research publication. We send subscribers written research covering options trade ideas on publicly traded equities, commentary on market events, and performance tracking of ideas we have previously published.
All content is impersonalized. It is prepared without regard to any individual subscriber’s investment objectives, financial situation, tax status, or risk tolerance. We do not know your portfolio. We do not offer personalized investment advice through the Publication. Subscribers execute any trades on their own, through their own brokerage accounts, at their sole discretion and risk.
3. Subscription, billing, and cancellation
Subscriptions are offered on a monthly or annual basis at the prices shown on the subscribe page at the time of purchase. New subscribers may begin with a seven (7) day free trial. A valid payment method is required to begin the trial; the payment method is not charged during the trial period. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid subscription and your payment method will be charged at the then-current price.
Paid subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless cancelled. You may cancel at any time through your account’s billing portal. Cancellations take effect at the end of the current paid period; you retain access until that date. Monthly subscriptions are non-refundable once a billing period has begun. Annual subscriptions are refundable on a pro-rated basis for the unused portion of the year if cancelled within seven (7) days of an annual renewal charge.
We may change subscription prices from time to time. Price changes apply only to future billing periods and will be communicated in advance by email.
4. Not investment advice, not a broker-dealer
Value Options Letter is a research publication. It is not an investment advisor and it is not a broker-dealer. Nothing published by Value Options Letter constitutes investment advice, an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any security or other financial instrument, a recommendation personalized to any subscriber, or a fiduciary relationship between us and you.
The author of the Publication may be affiliated with a separate registered investment advisor. That affiliated advisor provides personalized investment advice only to its own advisory clients under a separate advisory agreement. Your subscription to this Publication does not create — and is not intended to create — an advisory, fiduciary, brokerage, or client relationship with the author, the affiliated advisor, or any employee or principal of either.
You are solely responsible for your trading decisions. Past performance is not indicative of future results. See our Risk Disclosures for a fuller discussion, including specific risks associated with options trading.
5. Intellectual property
All content published in Value Options Letter — written research, commentary, trade ideas, performance data, site design, logos, and underlying analytics — is the property of Value Options Letter or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.
Your subscription grants you a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable right to access the Publication for your own personal use. You may not: reproduce, redistribute, republish, share, forward, sell, or sublicense any content; share your account credentials; scrape or programmatically extract content; or use the content to train, evaluate, or develop any machine learning model. Quoting brief excerpts with attribution is permitted only where fair use applies.
6. Eligibility and your representations
By subscribing, you represent and warrant that you are at least eighteen (18) years old, have the legal capacity to enter this agreement, and that your subscription does not violate any law in your jurisdiction. You represent that the payment method you use is your own or that you are authorized to use it.
7. Accounts and security
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized access. We may suspend or terminate any account we reasonably believe has been compromised or is being used in violation of these Terms.
8. Disclaimer of warranties
The Publication is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and uninterrupted access. We do not warrant that any published idea will be profitable or that any performance figure will persist in future periods.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Value Options Letter, its authors, affiliates, officers, and employees shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages, or for any lost profits, lost data, or trading losses arising out of or related to your use of the Publication, whether based in contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise. Our total aggregate liability to you for any claim arising out of or related to the Publication shall not exceed the amount you paid us in subscription fees in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
10. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Value Options Letter and its affiliates from any claim, demand, loss, damages, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to your breach of these Terms, your violation of any law or third-party right, or your trading decisions.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access at any time for breach of these Terms, for suspected fraud, or as otherwise required by law. Upon termination, your right to access the Publication ends. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law) will so survive.
12. Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by email or a notice within the Publication. Continued use of the Publication after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
13. Governing law and dispute resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Value Options Letter is organized, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Publication will be resolved through good-faith negotiation first; failing that, through binding arbitration in the jurisdiction of our principal place of business. You waive any right to a jury trial or to participate in a class action to the fullest extent permitted by law.
