See the Section 12 for additional details on this subject.

  1. DISCLAIMERS CONCERNING THE CONTENT WE PROVIDE

    You acknowledge and agree to the following:

    1. Wide Moat, LLC is a publisher of financial information, not an investment adviser. We rely upon the “publisher’s exclusion” from the definition of investment adviser under Section 202(a)(11)(D) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and corresponding state securities laws. We do not provide personalized or individualized investment advice. Any information provided as part of the Services is impersonal and not specific to any person’s investment needs. You acknowledge and agree that no Content published or otherwise provided as part of any Service constitutes a personalized recommendation or advice regarding the suitability of, or advisability of investing in, purchasing or selling any particular investment, security, portfolio, commodity, transaction or investment strategy. To the extent that any of the Content may be deemed to be investment advice or recommendations in connection with a particular security, such information is impersonal and not tailored to the investment needs of any specific person;
    2. None of our personnel, including, but not limited to, editorial staff, employees or independent contractors (collectively, “Our Representatives”), will provide you with personalized advice regarding the value or suitability of, or advisability of investing in, purchasing or selling, any particular investment, security, portfolio, commodity, transaction, investment strategy or any other matter, and you further agree not to request or contact us for such advice;
    3. From time to time the Services provide the opinion and commentary of Our Representatives, as well as well as opinion and commentary of third parties that are not controlled by Wide Moat, LLC, including, but not limited to, interviewees, guests, analysts and other third-party Content providers (collectively, “Outside Contributors”), as well as opinions and commentary provided in the products and services of our affiliates. The Services may contain opinions and commentary with regard to investments that may differ from opinions and commentary provided by and in other Services, Outside Contributors and/or our affiliates. The Services and/or Content are not to be used or construed as a recommendation or offer to buy or sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, any security, company, financial product or instrument, or to participate in any particular investment strategy, by any of the Wide Moat, LLC Entities (defined below) or any third party. The Services and all Content are for informational purposes only and are not intended to provide you with tax, legal, investment or accounting advice. None of Wide Moat, LLC Entities shall be liable for any investment decisions based upon or results obtained from the Services and/or Content. Trading in investments involves risk and volatility, and any of the investments discussed in the Services may lose their value after purchase. Past investment results are not necessarily indicative of future performance;
    4. Although we have certain trading restrictions for Our Representatives relating to investments or securities that are recommended in the Services, from time to time, one or more Outside Contributors or their affiliates may have a position in the investment or securities written about in the Services. In cases where the position is held at the time of publication, Outside Contributors may make a related disclosure; however, Wide Moat, LLC has no duty or obligation to investigate or determine whether Outside Contributors or their affiliates hold a position in an investment or security written about in the Services or to ensure that Outside Contributors make any such disclosure. In addition, Outside Contributors may be subject to certain restrictions on trading for their own account. In addition, certain of Our Representatives and other persons from our affiliates may, from time to time, have positions in, or buy or sell, the investments, securities or derivatives thereof that are referenced in the Content and may take positions inconsistent with the views expressed therein;
    5. Where Services and/or Content provided by Wide Moat, LLC consists of pricing or performance data, such data has been obtained from third-party sources reasonably believed to be reliable. However, the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of any such data or data calculations are not guaranteed by the Third-Party Providers (defined below) of such data or by Wide Moat, LLC, or any other third party. You acknowledge and agree that we do not have control over the quality, accuracy, completeness, veracity or legality of Content provided by Third-Party Providers and Outside Contributors;
    6. From time to time, reference may be made in our marketing materials to prior articles and opinions we have published. These references may be selective, may reference only a portion of an article or recommendation, and may not be current. As markets change continuously, previously published information and data may not be current and should not be relied upon;
    7. When U.S., international, cryptocurrency and/or other similar exchanges are open, any quotes that we may provide through our Platforms are delayed (other than those obtained through any real-time quote services we make available to users of certain Services). When such exchanges are not open, quotes are only current as of the close of the last day of trading. You acknowledge and agree that neither Wide Moat, LLC nor any Third-Party Provider of these quotes or related data shall be liable to you or any third party for any damage or loss resulting from your reliance or trading on the quotes, information or data contained or referenced in the Content or Services;
    8. To the extent any of the Services involve a model portfolio of investments, such portfolio provides investment ideas and/or provides information regarding investments, and is chosen by Our Representatives or Outside Contributors in accordance with our or their stated investment strategy and is for informational purposes only. Your actual results may differ from results reported for the portfolio for many reasons, including, but not limited to, trading commissions or pricing differences due to timing of a purchase or sale of an investment in the portfolio; and
    9. The information, research and opinions and other Content that Wide Moat, LLC provides as part of the Services are obtained or derived from sources believed to be reliable, but we cannot guarantee their accuracy and completeness nor the opinions based thereon. You should not rely solely upon such information, research and opinions for purposes of transacting securities or other investments, and you are encouraged to conduct your own research and due diligence, and to seek the advice of a qualified investment professional before you make any investment. None of the information provided as part of our Services constitutes, or is intended to constitute, a recommendation by us of any particular security or other investment or trading strategy or a determination by us that any security or other investment or trading strategy is suitable for any specific person. Investing in securities or other investments, including those chosen in any of Wide Moat, LLC’s model portfolio products or in any of the other Services, is speculative in nature and involves substantial risk of loss of the money invested.
  1. CONTENT

    We reserve the right to change, modify or discontinue any Content or any portion or feature of the Services. Such changes may include, but are not limited to, adding or removing particular Outside Contributors or Our Representatives, ceasing to provide access to a Service (and/or providing an alternative Service to you as a replacement), or changing the terms of engagement for a Service. We may make these changes or modifications at our sole discretion, either temporarily or permanently, at any time or from time to time, with or without notice to you. You agree that Wide Moat, LLC shall not be liable to you or any third party for any such change or modification of the Content and/or Services and that your continued use of the changed or modified Content and/or Services, and/or continued access to the changed or modified Content and/or Services, constitutes your acceptance of any such changes or modifications.

    Certain Content or other features of the Services may also have their own specific terms and conditions that you agree to when you sign up for, or use, that particular product, function, or service (“Specific Terms of Service”). Specific Terms of Services may be described in an Annex to this Agreement and/or may be provided to you through the Services at the time you elect to sign up for, or use, that particular Service. Each Specific Terms of Service supplements and is made part of this Agreement, but if any term of this Agreement expressly conflicts with any term of a Specific Terms of Service, the conflicting term in the Specific Terms of Service will control but only with respect to the applicable Service. All other terms and conditions in both this Agreement and the Specific Terms of Service will remain in force.

  1. TERMS APPLICABLE TO PREMIUM SERVICES

    THE FOLLOWING PROVISIONS APPLY ONLY TO PREMIUM SERVICES. YOU SHOULD READ THESE TERMS CLOSELY BEFORE YOU SUBSCRIBE TO A PREMIUM SERVICE.

    1. SUBSCRIPTIONS, FEES AND PAYMENTS

      Premium Services are made available on a subscription basis. As consideration for the Premium Services you purchase you agree to promptly pay Wide Moat, LLC all applicable prices and fees (collectively, the “Fees”) as designated in the related order process, with such Fees subject to change as provided in this Agreement. All Fees are due immediately or upon ordering and are non-refundable, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, as required by applicable law, or as such Fees are billed by us under an invoice or order confirmation for Premium Services issued to you that expressly permits payment within thirty (30) days (or other time period if so expressly provided) after we have sent you such invoice or order confirmation.

      We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change or modify the Fees, charges or other conditions for use of the Premium Services upon reasonable notice to you. You are responsible for the payment of, and accordingly agree to promptly pay, all applicable taxes (other than based on Wide Moat, LLC’s income) relating to the Services or payments made by you hereunder including, but not limited to, sales tax, use tax, value added tax (“VAT”), and other taxes and governmental charges, whether federal, state or foreign as well as all duties and charges on your payment for the purchase of Premium Services arising from any Fees. All payments of Fees shall be made in U.S. dollars. Taxes will be calculated based on where you receive services determined by your User Account address. All taxes charged will be reflected in your invoice upon payment.

      Our transaction processing is supported only in U.S. dollars and the pricing displayed during the checkout process will be an estimated conversion price at the time of purchase. If the currency of your bank or credit card account is not in U.S. dollars, you may be charged exchange rate conversion fees by your bank or credit card company. In addition, due to time differences between (i) the time you complete the checkout process; (ii) the time the transaction is processed; and (iii) the time the transaction posts to your bank or credit card, the conversion rates may fluctuate and we make no representations or warranties that (a) the amount submitted to your bank or credit card for payment will be the same amount that is posted to your bank or credit card statement or (b) the estimated conversion price will be the same as either the amount processed or the amount posted to your bank or credit card statement, and you agree to waive any and all claims against Wide Moat, LLC based upon such discrepancies (including any and all claims for a refund based on the foregoing). You acknowledge and agree that you may be charged VAT based on the country indicated in the User Account’s address information associated with your account.

      Unless otherwise stipulated in the related order process, payment for the Premium Services are to be made via a charge to your credit card, bank account, or other payment methods we deem acceptable that you provide to us (the “Payment Account”). You are solely and absolutely responsible for any information related to the Payment Account that you provide to Wide Moat, LLC and must promptly inform us of any changes or updates to the method of payment. By submitting an order to purchase a Premium Service, you authorize us to charge the order to the Payment Account or to otherwise immediately bill you for such Premium Services. You acknowledge and agree that unless otherwise expressly stated in the order process or otherwise changed afterwards in accordance with the applicable process, all annual, monthly or other recurring Fees related to the Premium Services or otherwise referenced in this Agreement are to be recurring transactions that will be billed on an ongoing basis until such Premium Services are terminated in accordance with this Agreement. If you have provided billing information sufficient for automatic billing, then we will bill you automatically in accordance with the applicable billing frequency. You are obligated to pay for the full amount of the Agreement, even if such full amount is scheduled to be paid in installments. If you elect to pay for the Premium Services in installments, provided such a payment schedule is expressly permitted and accepted by us, all installments must be received on or before the applicable due date.

      You agree to pay all Fees and other charges incurred in connection with your Payment Account (including, but not limited to, any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. You agree to pay all amounts due upon our demand. Without limiting any of Wide Moat, LLC’s rights hereunder, should any Fee payment become delinquent, we may suspend or cancel your Services; provided, however, related charges will continue to accrue. You acknowledge and agree that Wide Moat, LLC is not responsible whatsoever for any effect the suspension of Services might have on you or any third party. If Wide Moat, LLC provides any Service discount to you and you default on payments or obligations as outlined herein, Wide Moat, LLC may rescind all discounts and require full payment for the Services. All sums due and payable that remain unpaid after any applicable cure period herein will accrue interest as a late charge of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less. Wide Moat, LLC further reserves the right to refer any amounts owed hereunder to a third party for collection in the event of default. In the event your account is sent to collection, you agree to pay all costs of collection, including costs, litigation and attorneys’ fees. A collection fee may be charged for all dishonored checks. Moreover, an additional fee may also be assessed for the following reasons: (i) late payment; (ii) payment with insufficient funds; (iii) denied or invalid credit card number; or (iv) the re-starting or reinstating of Services terminated for nonpayment. Wide Moat, LLC will re-start or reinstate any such Service in our sole and absolute discretion and subject to our receipt of the applicable Fee.

      If you pay for the Services by credit card or other applicable method, you permanently and irrevocably waive any and all right to enact an improper “chargeback” (that is, a disputed, reversed or contested charge with the applicable bank card, credit card or other payment method) against these Fee payments for any reason whatsoever against Wide Moat, LLC. If for any reason Wide Moat, LLC is unable to charge your Payment Account for the full amount of the Fee owed for the Services provided, or if we receive notification of an improper chargeback, reversal, payment dispute or are charged a penalty for any Fee previously charged to your Payment Account, you agree that we may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment, including, but not limited to, immediate cancellation, without notice to you, of any or all of your Services. We also reserve the right to charge you reasonable “administrative fees” or “processing fees” for (i) additional tasks we may perform outside the normal scope of the Services; (ii) additional time and/or costs we may incur in providing the Services, and/or (iii) your noncompliance with this Agreement (as determined by us in our sole and absolute discretion). Typical administrative or processing fee scenarios include, but are not limited to: (i) customer service issues that require additional personal time or attention; (ii) recouping any and all costs and fees incurred by Wide Moat, LLC as the result of improper chargebacks or other payment disputes brought by you, your bank or other payment method processor. These administrative fees or processing fees will be billed to the Payment Account you have on file with Wide Moat, LLC.

      Information regarding current subscription rates for our Premium Services can be found on the applicable Premium Service’s webpage and/or by contacting our Customer Service Department at 888-415-6046 Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.

      YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ALL FEES ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THAT Wide Moat, LLC MAY CHANGE ANY PRICE, FEE, RATE OR PLAN AT ANY TIME UPON NOTICE TO CUSTOMER IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT.

    2. TERM; SUBSCRIPTION RENEWALS

      Your subscription will continue for the period referenced during registration (the "Term"), and renew automatically at the end of the Term, unless you notify us that you are not renewing your subscription by calling our Customer Service Department at 888-415-6046 Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. ET, by emailing us at [email protected] (or other email address we designate) or by another designated cancellation method. You must notify us by using one of the foregoing methods at least one day before the renewal date in order to avoid being charged for the renewal of your subscription. You may not notify us of a decision not to renew your subscription by any other means. No action by you or your failure to notify us as stated above will result in the then-applicable monthly, periodic or annual subscription Fee being billed automatically to your Payment Account. Please note that in connection with recurring billing for subscription renewals for such Premium Services, you authorize Wide Moat, LLC to bill the payment method(s) associated with your Payment Account, regardless of whether information associated with your subscription has changed, such as the expiration date of the credit card with which you initially subscribed.

      Services to which you subscribe to on a recurring basis will automatically renew on a recurring basis until the Agreement is properly terminated in accordance with its terms. You agree that if you are enrolled in or otherwise utilizing our automatic renewal service, we will attempt to renew your service at some point less than ninety (90) days prior to its expiration with notice to you. You further agree that, to turn off the automatic renewal service for any of your Services, you must call our Customer Service Department by telephone at 888-415-6046 Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. ET, or you may be able to turn off the automatic renewal Service through the online account associated with your Services. You acknowledge and agree that the renewal price may be higher or lower than the price you paid for the then current term of the Services, and that we are authorized to charge your Payment Account for the renewal of the Services. In any event, you are solely and absolutely responsible for the credit card or payment information you provide to Wide Moat, LLC and must promptly inform us of any changes thereto (e.g., change of expiration date or account number). You acknowledge and agree that Wide Moat, LLC may extend the expiration date on your credit card on file with us in order to protect against unwanted expiration of your Services and to allow for the automatic renewal thereof.

      In the event that you are not enrolled in our automatic renewal service, or have opted out of the automatic renewal service, and want to renew your Services, you acknowledge and agree you are responsible for actively renewing your Services and you further assume all risk and consequences of not enrolling in the automatic renewal service. If any Service is not successfully renewed prior to the expiration of its then current Term, all your rights to such Service will terminate, and we will have no obligation to allow you to renew a Service once its expiration date has passed. You are solely and absolutely responsible for ensuring the Services are renewed. We shall have no liability to you or any third party in connection with the renewal as described herein, including, but not limited to, any failure or errors in renewing the Services whether due to you, us or a third party. In order to process a renewal under our automatic renewal service, we may receive information from financial institutions or use third-party vendors for the purpose of updating the expiration date and account number of your credit card or other payment method on file relating to you Payment Account. Such financial institutions and third-party vendors maintain relationships with various credit card issuers and may be able to provide us with the updated information relating to your Payment Account by comparing the information we have on file with the information the financial institution or third-party vendor has on file. By using our automatic renewal service, you acknowledge and agree that we may share your credit card or other payment method information relating to you Payment Account with such financial institutions or third-party vendors for the purpose of obtaining any updates to your credit card expiration date, account number or any other information relating to your Payment Account.

    3. CANCELLATION; REFUNDS

      To cancel certain purchases of Wide Moat, LLC products or Free Services, you may cancel by changing your preferences in your User Account, contacting us by email at [email protected], or by another designated cancellation method. Premium Services may be cancelled as set forth below.

      During any free trial portion of your subscription you may cancel your subscription to the Premium Service at any time and not be billed by notifying us as described above. You must cancel one (1) day before the free trial period expires in order to avoid being converted to a paid subscription.

    1. WAIVER

      No waiver of any provision of this Agreement is effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Wide Moat, LLC. Our remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative, and the election of one remedy for a breach does not preclude the pursuit of other remedies. The failure of Wide Moat, LLC to require your performance of any Agreement provision does not affect the full right to require such performance at any time in the future.

Any failure by Wide Moat, LLC to enforce any of its rights under this Agreement or any applicable laws does not constitute a waiver of such right.

      No party will be deemed to have waived any of its rights under this Agreement by lapse of time or by any statement or representation other than (i) by an authorized representative and (ii) in an explicit written waiver. No waiver of any rights arising out of a breach of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of rights relating to any prior or subsequent breach of this Agreement.

    2. SEVERABILITY

      If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision (or portion of a provision) of this Agreement to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the remaining provisions (or portions of provisions) of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby and shall be found to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. This Agreement will be deemed amended to the extent necessary to make this Agreement enforceable, valid and, to the maximum extent possible, consistent with applicable law and consistent with the original intention of the parties, and the remaining terms and provisions will remain in full force and effect.
