Terms of Use & End User License Agreement
These Terms of Use and End User License Agreement ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and L&T Kingdom Enterprises ("we," "us," "The Purpose Driven Trader") governing your use of The Trade Companion desktop application (the "App"), the desk.thepurposedriventrader.com website, and related services (together, the "Services"). You accept these Terms by clicking "I agree" when the App first runs (or by installing or using the App, whichever comes first). If you do not agree, do not install or use the App.
1. What the App is (and is not)
The Trade Companion is a free educational software tool. It connects an AI assistant (Anthropic's Claude, under your own Anthropic account) to your own TradingView Desktop application, locally on your computer, to help you study charts, write and test TradingView Pine Script strategies, run backtests, stress tests, and simulations, and set alerts.
- The App does not place, route, or execute live trades, and cannot access your brokerage account or your money.
- The App does not provide investment, financial, legal, or tax advice, does not make personalized trading recommendations, and does not generate trade signals for you to follow (see the Risk Disclaimer, incorporated into these Terms).
- The App does not guarantee that any strategy, backtest, simulation, or analysis is accurate, profitable, or suitable for you.
2. You are interacting with an AI system
The App's copilot is generative artificial intelligence. AI output can be wrong — it can misread charts, write buggy code, and state things confidently that are not true. You agree that: AI outputs are not guaranteed to be accurate, complete, or error-free; you are responsible for reviewing and verifying any output before acting on it — above all before risking real money on any strategy, code, or analysis the App produced; outputs are educational information, never advice; we are not liable for decisions made in reliance on unverified AI output; and your AI conversations run under your own Anthropic account and Anthropic's terms — we never receive or process your chats.
3. License grant
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App on computers you own or control, for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not, except where the law expressly permits: redistribute, sell, rent, sublicense, or bundle the App; modify, decompile, reverse-engineer, or create derivative works of the App (the bundled open-source engine remains governed by its own MIT license); use the App to build a competing product, or remove proprietary notices; or use the App in violation of any third party's terms of service that apply to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by L&T Kingdom Enterprises and its licensors.
4. Your accounts and third-party services
The App operates on accounts you bring:
- Anthropic / Claude — your subscription or API key; your usage is billed by and governed by Anthropic's terms.
- TradingView — the App controls your locally installed TradingView Desktop through the standard Chromium remote-debugging interface on your own machine. It does not bypass any TradingView paywall, plan limit, or access control.
- Optional data providers (e.g., Databento, Financial Modeling Prep, FRED) — your own keys, your own agreements with those providers. Some requests cost real money on your provider account (e.g., Databento historical pulls). The App shows you the provider's quoted price and asks your consent before every non-cached paid request; you are responsible for all charges your providers bill you.
You are responsible for complying with each provider's terms, and for all fees those providers charge you. We are not a party to those relationships. Not affiliated: see Section 14.
5. Pro reports and Academy membership
The App is free. Some advanced report features ("Pro") unlock for active members of The Purpose Driven Trader Academy, verified by an email sign-in check. Nothing is sold inside the App and nothing on this site takes payment; Academy purchases, billing, cancellation, and refunds are governed by the terms presented where you purchase the Academy. Pro access follows your membership status and ends when membership ends. We may change which features are free or Pro over time.
6. Updates, live content feeds, and availability
The App auto-updates and periodically fetches small content files we publish (assistant guidance notes, prop-firm rule data, announcements/promotions). We may change, suspend, or discontinue the App or any feed at any time. Because chats and settings are stored locally, they remain on your machine.
7. Prop-firm information and simulations
Proprietary-trading-firm ("prop firm") evaluation rules, prices, and promotions change frequently and without notice. Rule data used in reports is researched in good faith but is not guaranteed accurate or current — always verify against the firm's official terms before purchasing an evaluation. Simulated pass rates, payout projections, and gameplans are hypothetical model outputs derived from your own backtest data (see the Risk Disclaimer) — they are not predictions, and no representation is made that you will pass any evaluation or receive any payout. We are not a prop firm and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or responsible for any prop firm's evaluations, payouts, solvency, or business practices. Evaluation and funded accounts at most firms are simulated trading environments; most participants do not pass evaluations or receive payouts, and evaluation fees are typically non-refundable. US prop firms are generally not regulated as brokers, futures commission merchants, or exchanges.
8. Affiliate relationships
We may earn commissions from partner firms when you use referral codes or links shown in the App or on our pages (e.g., code DTJ) — a paid affiliate relationship. See the Affiliate Disclosure. Affiliate relationships never obligate you and never change the price you pay adversely.
9. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy describes what we collect (an email address at download/sign-in, pseudonymous usage statistics, opt-in error reports) and what we never collect (your chats, strategies, code, keys, uploads, and trade data stay on your machine). It is incorporated into these Terms.
10. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the App or Services to violate law or third-party rights, probe or disrupt our services or feeds, harvest data from our endpoints, or misrepresent output of the App as guaranteed or actual performance in your own marketing. If you share report cards or results publicly, you are responsible for presenting them honestly as hypothetical simulations.
11. Intellectual-property complaints
If you believe content distributed through the Services infringes your copyright or other rights, contact tyler@thepurposedriventrader.com with the details and we will review and respond promptly.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
13. Limitation of liability
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; these apply to the fullest extent permitted, and if any provision is found unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect (severability).
14. Trademarks; no affiliation
TradingView is a trademark of TradingView, Inc. Claude and Anthropic are trademarks of Anthropic, PBC. The Trade Companion is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by TradingView, Inc. or Anthropic, PBC. Prop-firm names are trademarks of their respective owners; affiliate partnership does not imply their endorsement of the App. Databento, Financial Modeling Prep, and FRED are marks of their respective owners; the App connects to them only with keys and accounts you bring.
15. Indemnity
You will indemnify and hold harmless L&T Kingdom Enterprises from claims arising out of your misuse of the App, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third party's terms or rights (including TradingView's and Anthropic's).
16. Termination
You may stop using and uninstall the App at any time. We may terminate or suspend the license if you breach these Terms. Sections 7, 8, and 12–18 survive termination.
17. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms; the "Last updated" date will change and material changes will be noted in the App or by email. Continued use after changes take effect is acceptance.
18. Governing law; disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska, without regard to conflicts of law. Any dispute shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration under the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. We will pay all arbitration filing, administration, and arbitrator fees beyond the first $50 of your filing fee. You and we each waive jury trial and class actions. Small-claims court remains available to both parties, and you may opt out of this arbitration provision entirely by emailing tyler@thepurposedriventrader.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Venue for any non-arbitrable matter is the state and federal courts located in Nebraska.
