The Client is aware that data are transmitted over open, generally public networks (e.g., the Internet). Therefore, data are regularly transmitted in an unsupervised manner beyond the country’s borders of the Client, even if the sender and the recipient are both located in the same country. Even where the data themselves are encrypted, the sender and recipient can sometimes remain unencrypted, such that third parties may be able to infer their identity.

If the Client uses and stores any information (notably his/her password, user ID, portfolio information, transaction slips, account statements, etc.) in an accessible manner on his/her computer, he/she does so at his/her own risk and is personally responsible for all consequences.
• Software and hardware should always be from a trustworthy source.

At each Anniversary Date, the Client will be charged the Subscription Plan Fee or Add-On Fee.

If you choose to become a Follower of a Signal Provider, the Signal Provider may apply an optional markup to the Subscription Plan Fee. This markup is an additional amount that you, as a Follower, are obligated to pay when subscribing to gain access to the Signal Provider's strategy.

Please note that this provision applies specifically to followers of the Signal Provider and the optional markup is applicable only to the Subscription Plan Fee.

You can upgrade your Subscription Plan whenever you choose. Any changes in the Subscription Plan will immediately be reflected in your customer account. This means that you will be liable for the higher level of Fees if the subscription plan is upgraded. No credits will be issued for downgrades or cancellation of subscription. We will apply the new level of fees from when you make the change, over the remaining Billing Period. This means that if you make a change to your Subscription on the 20th of a month, and your Anniversary Date is the 15th of each month, then from the 20th of that month till the 14th of the following month, we will charge you the new Subscription Plan Fee.

Duplikium will continue charging the Subscriber the monthly, quarterly, or annually Subscription Plan Fee or Add-On Fee until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with clause “Termination”. You are responsible for payment of all taxes and government charges in addition to the Fees.

Payments made using cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, USDT, etc.) may take up to 3 hours for the payment to be activated due to the necessary cryptocurrency processing and verification procedures. Such cryptocurrency subscription will not be subject to automatic renewal. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the Client to manually renew the payment at the conclusion of the billing period.

If the Client has not cancelled the subscription, it will renew automatically. Duplikium send to the Client an email 4 days before the expiration. If we are unable to process a charge on your card or payment method and the subscription does not renew for any reason, it will stay active for a grace period of 48 hours. The Client will have an opportunity to update the credit card or payment details.

13. Engaging Third Parties

Upon registering as a client of Duplikium, the Client may provide to Duplikium the user ID and password for his brokerage account. As such, the Client hereby fully authorizes and consents to Duplikium to have access to his financial information and to have a power of disposal on the assets involved through his broker (“Authorized Broker”).

This information is provided solely by the Client’s Authorized Broker and not Duplikium. The Client agrees not to hold Duplikium liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as a result of such dealings with any services or information provided by the Client’s Authorized Broker.

And the Client further represents and warrants that he has all rights and licenses necessary to grant the access to such information, that any such information is true and accurate, and that the Authorized Broker is his lawful agent and power of attorney duly authorized to transfer to Duplikium such information and to grant to Duplikium a power of disposal on the assets involved. The Client further represents and warrant that he will be fully and solely responsible for instructing his Authorized Broker(s) to cease providing to Duplikium with his financial information, and until further notice Duplikium will assume the Client complete consent to Duplikium receiving said authorization.

14. Instructions Execution

The Client registers Masters and Slaves accounts through the website or by other mean made available by Duplikium and has the sole responsibility of accounts. The execution of the instruction is made as soon as an order is placed on the Master account and this accordingly to the different settings defined in the system by the Client (Risk Factor, Whitelist/Blacklist, Global Account Protection, Global Settings…).

The Client accepts that the resulting instruction from an order copied is executed on the Slave account even if the Client has not formally accepted the order.

No appeal on the order copied or instruction execution can be made by the Client once the copy completed.

15. Defective Instructions Execution

While using Duplikium platform, the Client might encounter system errors that are resulted from hardware and/or software failures. The result of any system failure may be that the Client’s order is either not executed according to instructions, executing with account balance errors and discrepancies, or not executed at all. Duplikium will not be liable for the resulting errors in account balances and orders execution.

Duplikium does not guarantee any order. Placing Stop Loss or Take Profit orders does not guarantee that the trade will be filled at the order price. All Stop Loss or Take Profit will be filled, upon activation, at the first/best available market price that may or may not match the requested order price.

The Client acknowledges being fully responsible for implementing an appropriate monitoring system to track their trading activity, especially to detect any issues related to orders or open positions resulting from partial or complete system failures. Duplikium services are intended to be used as a trading aid, and not as an autonomous system that operates without regular human supervision.

In the event the third-party broker is unable to provide liquidity to Duplikium, the Client’s order may experience delays in execution or Duplikium may not be able to place orders entirely. The size of the order may also impede the speed at which the order is executed.
