Last updated: March 23, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Novus platform ("Platform"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Platform. Novus reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time, and continued use constitutes acceptance of any modifications.

2. Platform Description

Novus is an educational data platform powered by an AI assistant known as SassySigma. The Platform provides market data observations, pattern recognition, educational content, and a community leaderboard. Novus does NOT provide financial advice, investment recommendations, or trading signals intended as solicitation to buy or sell securities.

3. Not Financial Advice

THE CONTENT PROVIDED ON THE PLATFORM IS FOR EDUCATIONAL AND INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE FINANCIAL ADVICE.

Nothing on the Platform should be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument. All trading and investment decisions are made solely by the user. Past performance displayed on the leaderboard or referenced by SassySigma is not indicative of future results. You should always consult with a qualified financial advisor before making investment decisions.

4. User Responsibilities

You agree to:

  • Provide accurate information when signing up
  • Use the Platform only for lawful purposes
  • Not attempt to reverse engineer, scrape, or exploit the Platform
  • Not use automated systems to access the Platform without permission
  • Not impersonate other users or misrepresent your identity
  • Take full responsibility for your own trading and investment decisions

5. Brokerage Connections

Novus does not hold, manage, or have access to any user funds. We do not connect to your brokerage account, store API keys, or execute trades on your behalf. Any brokerage information you provide (such as which broker you use) is collected solely for product development purposes and to improve the Platform experience. Your broker, your money, your decisions.

6. Intellectual Property

All content on the Platform, including text, graphics, logos, AI generated responses, leaderboard data, and software, is the property of Novus or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from Platform content without written permission.

7. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NOVUS AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

8. Risk Disclosure

Trading and investing in financial markets involves substantial risk of loss. You could lose some or all of your invested capital. The information provided by SassySigma and the Platform is based on data analysis and pattern recognition, not guaranteed outcomes. Market conditions can change rapidly and unpredictably. You should only trade with money you can afford to lose.

9. Termination

Novus reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Platform at any time, for any reason, without prior notice. Upon termination, your right to use the Platform ceases immediately. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain in effect.

10. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Platform shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with applicable arbitration rules.
