Terms of Service

Effective 15 June 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and DuplicoTrade ("we", "us", "the developer") governing your use of DuplicoTrade ("the App"). Read them carefully. They contain a disclaimer of warranties, an assumption of risk, and a limitation of our liability. If you do not agree to every part of these Terms, do not purchase, download, install, or use the App.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

You accept these Terms when you do any of the following: purchase a license, download or install the App, click or tick a control indicating acceptance (in the App or at checkout), or use the App in any way. The App may require you to affirmatively confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms before it will operate; if it does, you may not use the App without giving that confirmation. Your continued use of the App after any change to these Terms constitutes acceptance of the changed Terms.

2. Eligibility

You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. The App is intended for individual retail traders using it for their own personal trading. It is not intended for, marketed to, or licensed for use by professional or institutional traders, investment firms, funds, or any person acting in a professional or institutional capacity. By using the App you confirm that you are a retail user acting on your own behalf.

3. The software

DuplicoTrade is a Mac application that copies trade fills and orders from a leader account to one or more follower accounts on supported brokers (e.g. Tradovate, Rithmic). It runs locally on your Mac. We operate no servers that route, execute, or process your trades, and we have no visibility into or control over your trading activity.

4. License

When you purchase a license, you receive a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable right to use the App on Macs you own or control. Your license tier determines how many connections and accounts you may configure.

• You may not sublicense, sell, rent, or redistribute the App or your license key.
• You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code, except where this restriction is prohibited by law.
• One license is for one person. Do not share license keys.

5. Permitted use and restrictions

You may use the App only to copy trades between brokerage accounts that you own or are lawfully entitled to trade for your own benefit. You agree that you will not:

• use the App to trade or manage money on behalf of any other person, or to operate a copy-trading, signal, managed-account, or similar service for third parties;
• use the App in any way that would require you to hold a licence or registration as an investment firm, adviser, or money manager, unless you actually hold that licence;
• use the App for any unlawful purpose, for market manipulation, or in breach of any applicable law or market rule;
• upload or transmit malware, attempt to gain unauthorised access to any system, or interfere with the App's operation;
• misrepresent your identity or your authority over any account.

6. Free trial

The App includes a 7-day free trial that is fully feature-complete. No payment method is required to start the trial. The trial gives you a full opportunity to evaluate whether the App is suitable for you. After the trial period, a valid license is required to continue using the App.

7. Assumption of risk and trading disclaimer

DuplicoTrade is a tool, not a trading strategy, and not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. It copies trades mechanically and does not evaluate whether copying any trade is appropriate for you, your account size, or your risk tolerance.

TRADING FUTURES AND OTHER LEVERAGED INSTRUMENTS INVOLVES A SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF LOSS AND IS NOT SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE. YOU CAN LOSE MORE THAN YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT.

You acknowledge and agree that:

• You are solely responsible for every trading decision and every outcome in your accounts, whether or not the App copied a trade correctly.
• You assume all risk arising from the App copying a trade, failing to copy a trade, copying it late, copying it incorrectly, copying the wrong size or direction, or duplicating or missing a position.
• Market conditions, volatility, slippage, liquidity, price gaps, and the timing and pricing differences between accounts are outside our control, and you assume all risk arising from them.
• The behaviour, availability, latency, rules, and changes of your broker and any prop firm are outside our control, and you assume all risk arising from them.

8. Your responsibility to supervise the App

The App requires your active supervision. You are solely responsible for monitoring the App and your accounts and for verifying that orders and positions have copied correctly. Because the App runs locally on your Mac, it copies only while your Mac is running, awake, and connected to your broker; during sleep, shutdown, loss of network, or any connection interruption it may not copy a trade, and a trade you place during such a period may not be mirrored to your other accounts. The App is not an unattended, autonomous, or fail-safe system, and you must not rely on it as one. You remain responsible for meeting any flat-by, drawdown, or other deadline set by your broker or prop firm.

9. The App is provided "as is" — no warranty

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of defects; that it will copy trades accurately, completely, or on time; or that it will remain compatible with any broker. Broker APIs can change without notice; we will make reasonable efforts to maintain compatibility but cannot guarantee it.

10. Acknowledgment of defects

You understand and accept that the App is software and that all software may contain bugs, defects, and errors, some of which may not be discovered until they cause harm. You expressly accept the risk that a bug, defect, error, or failure in the App — whether known or unknown, and regardless of cause — may result in trading losses or other losses, and you agree that we are not liable for any such loss to the maximum extent permitted by law. The free trial is provided so that you can evaluate this risk before you pay.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY TRADING LOSS, LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITY, LOSS OF DATA, OR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS — EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND WHETHER THE CLAIM IS BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY.

This exclusion applies in particular to any loss arising from the App copying, failing to copy, delaying, duplicating, or incorrectly copying any trade or order, from any bug or defect, from downtime, or from broker or prop-firm behaviour.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR YOUR LICENSE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or damages, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law. Where liability cannot be excluded but can be limited, our liability is limited to the maximum extent the law permits.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claim, demand, loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the App, your trading activity, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any broker, prop-firm, or applicable rule or law.

13. Broker and prop-firm compliance

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the App complies with the terms of your broker and any prop firm whose accounts you manage. Some firms restrict or prohibit trade copying. Many permit copying your own trades across your own accounts — verify with your firm before use. We are not responsible for any account restriction, suspension, failed evaluation, or penalty imposed on you by a broker or prop firm.

14. Compliance with trading regulations

You are solely responsible for complying with all laws, regulations, and licensing requirements that apply to your trading and to your use of the App in your jurisdiction. We are not a broker, investment firm, financial adviser, or regulated entity, and we do not provide investment, financial, tax, or legal advice or any regulated investment service. If your particular use of the App constitutes a regulated activity, obtaining and maintaining any required authorisation or licence is your responsibility. We are not liable for your failure to comply with any regulatory or licensing requirement.

15. Intellectual property

The App, its source code, design, and all related materials, together with the DuplicoTrade name and logo, are owned by us and protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms grant you a limited right to use the App and transfer no ownership to you. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

16. Third-party services

The App connects to third-party brokers, and payments are processed by our payment processor, Stripe. We are the seller of record for your purchase. We are not responsible for the acts, omissions, availability, or policies of any third party, including your broker or Stripe. Your use of a broker is governed by that broker's own terms, and your payment is additionally subject to Stripe's terms.

17. Updates and future versions

Your license covers all updates within the major version you purchased (e.g. v1.x). Major version upgrades (e.g. v1 → v2) are offered to existing customers at a 50% discount but are not included in your original purchase. We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the App at any time.

18. Termination

We may revoke your license if you violate these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time. The disclaimers, assumption of risk, limitation of liability, indemnification, and any other provisions that by their nature should survive will survive termination.

19. Severability and entire agreement

If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions will stay in full force. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App and supersede any prior agreement.

20. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Netherlands for any dispute — except where mandatory consumer law gives you a different right. If you are a consumer resident in the European Union or European Economic Area, you also enjoy the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, and nothing in these Terms affects those rights.

21. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by email to the address associated with your purchase, and the effective date above will be revised. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
