If you do not agree to these Terms, you should not use the Site. We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time; continued use of the Site after modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

The content does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, trading advice, legal advice, tax advice, or any other form of professional advice. You should not rely on any content on the Site as a substitute for professional advice tailored to your individual circumstances.
No Guarantees of Accuracy
While we strive for accuracy in all our content (see our Editorial Policy), we do not warrant or guarantee that the information on the Site is complete, accurate, current, or free from errors.

We shall not be liable for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in the content, or for any actions taken in reliance on such content.

The Site contains links to third-party websites, including government agencies, international organizations, financial institutions, commodity trading companies, and news organizations. These links are provided for reference and convenience only. We do not control, endorse, or assume responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or policies of any third-party websites. You access third-party sites at your own risk.
User Conduct
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of, or restrict or inhibit the use of the Site by, any third party. You agree not to use automated systems to access the Site in a manner that sends more request messages to our servers than a human could reasonably produce using a standard web browser.

All content on the Site — including text, graphics, logos, design elements, and the compilation thereof — is the property of Zug Trading or its content suppliers and is protected by Swiss and international copyright laws. The Zug Trading name, logo, and all related names, logos, product and service names, designs, and slogans are proprietary marks. You may not use these marks without our prior written permission.

The Site displays third-party advertisements through Google AdSense and may include sponsored content or affiliate links.

Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Zug Trading, its founders, editors, contributors, and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including but not limited to loss of profits, data, business opportunities, or goodwill — arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site or reliance on any content published on the Site. In any event, our total liability to you for all claims arising from use of the Site shall not exceed CHF 100.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Zug Trading, its founders, editors, contributors, and affiliates from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.
Dispute Resolution
In the event of any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Site, the parties agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute through good-faith negotiation. If the dispute cannot be resolved through negotiation within thirty (30) days, either party may submit the dispute to mediation administered under Swiss rules. If mediation fails, the dispute shall be submitted to binding arbitration in Vaud, Switzerland.
Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Switzerland, with exclusive jurisdiction vested in the courts of the Canton of Vaud. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
