1. Who these terms are with
SeaOrb is operated by SeaOrb LLC, a limited liability company registered in the State of Oregon, United States ("SeaOrb", "we", "us"). These Terms of Service govern your use of the SeaOrb desktop application, the seaorb.io website, and any related services (together, the "Service").
By downloading, installing, or using the Service, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. What the Service is — and what it is not
SeaOrb is software for historical market analysis and research. It lets you construct trading strategies, simulate them against historical market data, and review statistics describing how those simulations performed.
The following are fundamental to this agreement:
- SeaOrb does not execute trades. It does not place orders, connect to a broker or exchange for the purpose of trading, or act on your behalf in any market.
- SeaOrb does not hold or transmit customer funds. We never take custody of money or assets belonging to you.
- SeaOrb does not provide financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Nothing produced by the Service is a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold anything. We are not a broker-dealer, investment adviser, fund, or financial institution, and we are not registered as any of those.
- Simulated results are not real results. Backtests are hypothetical models of what might have happened under a set of assumptions. They are subject to the limits of historical data and of modelling itself. Past performance does not indicate future results.
Every decision about whether, when, or how to trade is yours alone, taken outside the Service and at your own risk.
3. Eligibility and accounts
You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information on your account and for keeping your credentials secure. Tell us promptly at [email protected] if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.
Accounts are for a single person. Do not share an account, and do not use the Service in a jurisdiction where doing so would breach applicable law.
4. Plans, billing, and renewal
SeaOrb offers a free plan and paid subscription plans. Current plans and prices are shown on the pricing page.
- Paid plans begin with a 7-day trial. You will not be charged before the trial ends.
- Unless cancelled, subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period — monthly or annual, as chosen at checkout — at the then-current price.
- Payments are processed by Stripe. We do not receive or store your full card details.
- Prices are in US dollars and exclude any taxes that may apply to you.
- You may cancel at any time. Cancellation, downgrades, and refunds are governed by our Refunds & Cancellation Policy, which forms part of these terms.
If we change the price of a plan, we will give you notice before it takes effect on your subscription, and you may cancel rather than accept it.
5. Your licence to use SeaOrb
Subject to these terms and to your plan, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the SeaOrb application for your own research. We retain all other rights.
You agree not to:
- copy, resell, sublicense, rent, or redistribute the Service or access to it;
- reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the application, except where that right cannot lawfully be restricted;
- circumvent or interfere with licensing, plan limits, or any security or access control;
- use the Service to break the law, infringe anyone's rights, or overload or disrupt our infrastructure or the infrastructure of our data sources;
- extract or redistribute market data obtained through the Service as a data product of your own.
6. Market data
The Service includes historical market data that we collect from third-party sources and process for use in the application. We make a genuine effort to keep that data accurate and complete, including automated integrity checks and reconciliation, but we do not warrant that it is accurate, complete, or uninterrupted. Third-party sources can themselves be wrong, incomplete, revised, or unavailable. Market data is provided for research within the Service and may not be redistributed.
7. Your content
Strategies, configurations, notes, and other material you create in the Service remain yours. You grant us only the limited permission needed to store, process, and display that material in order to operate the Service for you. We do not claim ownership of your strategies and we do not trade on them.
8. Intellectual property
The Service, including the application, its source code, the SeaOrb name and logo, and the content of this website, is owned by SeaOrb LLC and protected by intellectual property law. These terms grant you a licence to use the Service, not any ownership of it.
9. Availability and changes
We aim to keep the Service available and improving, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. We may modify, add, or remove features over time. If we make a change that materially reduces the core functionality of a paid plan you are on, we will give you reasonable notice and you may cancel and seek a pro-rata refund of the unused portion of your current period.
10. Disclaimer of warranties
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement.
Without limiting that: we do not warrant that the Service will be error-free, that results or metrics it produces are free from defect, or that any strategy tested in it will perform in any particular way in live markets. Trading carries a substantial risk of loss, and you may lose more than you invest.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, SeaOrb LLC and anyone acting on its behalf will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for any trading or investment losses, lost profits, lost opportunities, or loss of data, arising out of or relating to the Service — even if we have been advised that such damages are possible.
Our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) US$100.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including for fraud.
12. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless SeaOrb LLC from claims, losses, and reasonable legal costs arising from your use of the Service in breach of these terms or of applicable law.
13. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Service and cancel your subscription at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these terms, if required by law, or to protect the Service or other users — and where circumstances reasonably allow, we will tell you why first. If we terminate your account without cause, we will refund the unused portion of your current billing period.
14. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. If a change is material, we will give notice through the Service or by email before it takes effect. Continuing to use the Service after that point means you accept the updated terms. The "last updated" date above always reflects the current version.
15. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The state and federal courts located in Oregon have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute, and you and SeaOrb LLC each consent to that jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory laws in your country of residence.
16. General
If any provision of these terms is held unenforceable, the rest remain in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. These terms, together with the Privacy Policy and the Refunds & Cancellation Policy, are the entire agreement between you and SeaOrb LLC regarding the Service.
