Terms and conditions
Last updated June 2nd, 2026
Agreement to our legal terms
We are Aralyx ('Company', 'we', 'us', or 'our'), a company registered in Ireland at Aralyx Unlimited Company, The Apex Building, Blackthorn Road, Sandyford, Dublin, Ireland, D18F5FW.
We operate the website https://www.aralyx.com (the 'Site'), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the 'Legal terms') (collectively, the 'Services').
Aralyx is a proprietary trading firm and trading platform built to identify, assess, and develop trading talent. We provide a structured pathway for traders to demonstrate performance, connect broker data, access trading tools and education, and potentially progress to trading firm capital through our Assessment Track programme.
You can contact us by email at support@aralyx.com or by mail to The Apex Building, Blackthorn Road, Sandyford, Dublin, Ireland.
These Legal terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ('you'), and Aralyx, concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by creating an account, subscribing, connecting a broker or platform account, or otherwise accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.
Before creating an account, subscribing, connecting a broker or platform account, accessing the Assessment Track, or entering into any live trading arrangement, you may be required to confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted these Legal Terms, the Privacy Policy, and any applicable Assessment Track rules or programme terms.
Acceptance may be given by ticking a checkbox, clicking “I agree”, “Join now”, “Subscribe”, “Connect account”, “Continue”, or any equivalent button or confirmation presented through the Services.
Aralyx may record and retain evidence of your acceptance, including the date and time of acceptance, account identifier, email address, IP address, device information, version of the Legal Terms accepted, and related metadata.
You must not use the Services if you do not agree to the Legal Terms then in force.
Before progressing to live trading, traders may be required to enter into a separate live trading agreement and confirm acceptance of additional trading, risk, compliance, confidentiality, market conduct, fee, platform, and operational obligations.
We will provide you with prior notice of any scheduled material changes to the Services you are using. The modified Legal terms will become effective upon posting or notifying you by email at support@aralyx.com, as stated in the email message. By continuing to use the Services after the effective date of any changes, you agree to be bound by the modified terms.
The services are intended for users who are at least 18 years old. Persons under the age of 18 are not permitted to use or register for the Services.

1. Our services
The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.
Assessment environment and broker data
Participation in the Assessment Track involves the use of supported broker and platform accounts in a structured evaluation environment.
Aralyx uses broker-synchronised trading data to calculate performance metrics, rankings, drawdown, active trading days, and other assessment-related information.
All metrics, rankings, and performance data are generated for assessment, platform, risk, and review purposes only. Outcomes, performance metrics, or assessments do not constitute or guarantee future trading success in live markets.
Aralyx does not provide brokerage services, execution services, portfolio management, or regulated investment advice through the Assessment Track.
No financial advice
Nothing provided by Aralyx, including platform content, communications, performance analytics, market commentary, or education, should be interpreted as financial advice, investment recommendations, or solicitation to trade in any financial market. Nothing on this Site or within the Services constitutes regulated investment advice, portfolio management, brokerage services, or execution services.
2. Eligibility
By using the Services, you represent and warrant that:
- You are legally permitted to trade financial markets in your jurisdiction
- You are not located in a restricted or sanctioned jurisdiction
- You are not prohibited from using trading, broker, data, or financial technology services

- You have the legal capacity and agree to comply with these Legal terms
- You are not a minor in the jurisdiction in which you reside
- Your use of the Services will not violate any applicable law or regulation
You further agree to maintain the accuracy of all registration information and to promptly update such information as necessary.
Aralyx may refuse, suspend, or terminate access where required for legal, regulatory, compliance, risk, operational, or platform integrity reasons. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any current or future use of the Services.
3. Sanctions and restricted jurisdictions
Traders residing in jurisdictions subject to international sanctions may not be eligible to use the Services or progress to live trading. This may include, but is not limited to, the following jurisdictions:
- Iran
- North Korea
- Syria
- Cuba
- Russia
- Certain regions of Ukraine
- Any other jurisdiction restricted by applicable sanctions such as OFAC, law, or third-party provider requirements
Aralyx reserves the right to block access, suspend accounts, or refuse progression where jurisdictional restrictions apply.
4. Account access and security
You may be required to register to use the Services. You are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of your account credentials. You agree not to:
- Share your login credentials with any third party
- Allow another person to access your account
- Provide false or misleading registration information
- Attempt to bypass security, verification, or platform controls
- Use another person's broker, platform, or trading account
We reserve the right to remove, reclaim, or change a username you select if we determine, in our sole discretion, that such username is inappropriate, obscene, or otherwise objectionable. All activity carried out through your account is your responsibility. Aralyx may suspend or restrict access if account misuse, unauthorised access, or suspicious activity is detected.
5. Purchases and payment
We accept the following forms of payment:
- Visa
- Mastercard
- American Express
- Discover
You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made via the services. You further agree to promptly update account and payment information, including email address, payment method, and payment card expiration date, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed. We may change prices at any time. All payments shall be in US dollars.
You agree to pay all charges at the prices then in effect for your purchases and any applicable fees, and you authorise us to charge your chosen payment provider for any such amounts upon placing your order. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, even if we have already requested or received payment.
We reserve the right to refuse any order placed through the Services. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same payment method, and/or orders that use the same billing or shipping address.
6. Subscriptions
Billing and renewal
Access to the Assessment track and platform is provided through a recurring subscription. Unless otherwise stated, billing begins immediately when you subscribe and subscriptions renew monthly. You consent to our charging your payment method on a recurring basis without requiring your prior approval for each recurring charge, until such time as you cancel the applicable subscription.
Cancellation
You may cancel your subscription at any time by logging into your account settings or through the relevant billing portal. Your cancellation will take effect at the end of the current paid billing term. Cancellation prevents future renewal but does not automatically entitle you to a refund of fees already charged. If you have any questions or are unsatisfied with our Services, please contact us at support@aralyx.com.
Fee changes
We may, from time to time, make changes to the subscription fee and will communicate any price changes to you in accordance with applicable law.
Refund policy
Subscription fees are non-refundable once charged and platform access has been provided, except where required by applicable law. Where legally required, consumer cancellation or withdrawal rights will be respected. If you request immediate access to the Services, you acknowledge that your statutory right to cancel may be affected once access begins, subject to applicable law.
7. Fee credit on progression
If a trader progresses to a live account with Aralyx, the initial assessment cycle subscription fees paid during the Assessment Track will be credited back on the traders first profit withdrawal on firm capital. The method, timing, and application of any fee credit will be determined by Aralyx at its sole discretion and may be subject to onboarding, KYC, risk approval, and live trading terms.
Fee credits do not apply where an account is terminated for misconduct, prohibited trading behaviour, breach of these Legal terms, failed verification, sanctions restrictions, or any other disqualifying event.
8. Assessment track
The Assessment track is designed to evaluate trading performance, risk discipline, consistency, and suitability for potential progression to firm capital. Published assessment criteria may include, but are not limited to:
- Return targets
- Maximum drawdown limits
- Active trading day requirements
- Meaningful trading activity standards
- Leaderboard ranking
- Risk behaviour and consistency
- Broker data verification
Aralyx may update assessment rules, cycle dates, criteria, eligibility requirements, or platform features where required for operational, technical, risk, legal, or commercial reasons.
9. No guarantee of progression
Meeting published assessment criteria does not create an automatic entitlement to a live account, capital allocation, employment, contractor engagement, or any long-term role with Aralyx. Progression may be subject to, without limitation:
- Ranking and comparative assessment
- KYC verification
- Sanctions and compliance screening
- Performance review
- Risk interview
- Trading activity review
- Platform data verification
- Desk approval
- Availability of firm capital
- Agreement to separate live trading terms
All progression, capital allocation, and live trading decisions are made at the sole and absolute discretion of Aralyx.
10. Assessment integrity and verification
Assessment integrity
The Assessment track is designed to evaluate genuine trading ability. Any attempt to game, circumvent, manipulate, or artificially inflate performance during the Assessment track constitutes a material breach of these Legal terms and will result in immediate disqualification, termination of access, and forfeiture of any progression or associated benefits.
Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to:
- Employing strategies designed solely to pass assessment thresholds rather than demonstrate genuine, repeatable trading skill
- Gambling the assessment through oversized, reckless, or unsustainable position-taking with the intent of hitting return targets rather than demonstrating disciplined trading
- Exploiting platform rules, risk parameters, drawdown thresholds, or assessment criteria in a manner inconsistent with professional trading standards
- Deliberately structuring trading activity around rule boundaries to avoid breach or satisfy requirements without genuine market engagement
- Using multiple accounts, whether in your own name or through third parties, to influence rankings, avoid restrictions, or circumvent assessment rules
- Accessing the platform or Services from multiple IP addresses, using VPNs, proxies, or any other tools to obscure your identity, location, or account activity
- Coordinating with other traders to influence rankings, share positions, or manipulate leaderboard outcomes
- Reverse engineering, testing, or probing assessment logic, risk systems, or platform rules to identify exploitable patterns
- Any conduct that is dishonest, deceptive, or inconsistent with the standards expected of a professional trader
Aralyx reserves the right to investigate all trading activity, account access patterns, platform usage, and technical metadata at any time and without notice. Where Aralyx suspects, on reasonable grounds, that any of the above conduct has occurred or is occurring, it may suspend or terminate access immediately, remove the trader from rankings and eligibility, and forfeit any progression or benefits, without liability to the trader. Aralyx is not required to disclose the grounds for its suspicion or the evidence relied upon in making its determination. All determinations are made at the sole discretion of Aralyx.
Live verification interview
Before progressing to a live trading account, all qualifying traders are required to participate in a live verification interview conducted via video call with camera enabled. The purpose of the interview is to verify the trader's identity, confirm that the assessed performance was generated by the account holder personally, and assess suitability for live trading.
During the verification interview, traders may be required to:
- Present government-issued photo identification
- Share their screen to demonstrate live access to the broker account used during the Assessment Track
- Walk through trades, positions, and activity from the assessment period
- Answer questions on trading rationale, strategy, and decision-making
- Confirm that no automated systems, external signals, third-party assistance, or prohibited tools were used during the assessment
Failure to attend the verification interview, failure to provide requested documentation, inability to demonstrate live access to the assessed account, or any inconsistency between assessed performance and demonstrated trading knowledge or account access may result in immediate disqualification and forfeiture of progression eligibility.
Aralyx reserves the right to require additional verification steps, repeat interviews, or supplementary documentation at any stage of the progression process. Where verification interviews are recorded, traders will be informed in advance and such recordings will be processed in accordance with our Privacy policy.
11. KYC, verification and risk interview
Before progressing to live trading, qualifying traders may be required to complete such verification and compliance steps as Aralyx deems necessary, including but not limited to:
- Identity verification
- Proof of address verification
- Sanctions and compliance screening
- Trading performance review
- Risk interview
- Any other checks required by Aralyx or its third-party providers
Failure to complete verification or to provide requested information within the timeframe specified by Aralyx may result in loss of eligibility. Aralyx may refuse progression where verification, risk, compliance, or suitability concerns arise.
12. Live trading
Where a trader progresses to live trading, they may be offered access to a live trading account funded by Aralyx or its related firm structure. Live trading is subject to separate approval and may include defined risk parameters, product and position limits, daily or total loss controls, ongoing risk monitoring, desk oversight, platform and execution requirements, and the execution of separate live trading agreements.
Aralyx does not accept deposits into trading accounts, does not hold client trading funds, and does not provide client brokerage accounts.
During the Assessment Track, traders trade through their own connected broker or trading platform account. Any trading activity, margin, losses, fees, commissions, charges, account restrictions, or other consequences arising in that account remain the responsibility of the trader and/or the relevant broker or platform.
Where a trader progresses to live trading, any access to capital is provided by Aralyx or its related firm structure as firm capital under a separate live trading agreement. Traders do not deposit trading capital with Aralyx.
Live traders operate as independent contractors unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing. Nothing in these Legal terms creates an employment relationship, partnership, agency relationship, or guarantee of ongoing engagement.
13. Capital allocation and scaling
Initial capital allocation is determined by Aralyx based on the trader's profile, track record, risk discipline, strategy, and overall suitability assessment. Capital may be scaled where performance, consistency, and risk control justify increased allocation. Aralyx may reduce, pause, restrict, or withdraw capital allocation at any time based on risk, performance, market conditions, compliance, or business requirements.
No trader has an automatic right to any specific account size, risk limit, scaling schedule, product access, or market access.
14. Profit split and withdrawals
For Assessment Track traders who progress to live trading, profit split terms may provide for an 80/20 split, with 80% of net profits paid to the trader and 20% retained by Aralyx, subject to the relevant live trading agreement.
For Professional Track traders entering directly with a verified live track record, the profit split is negotiated as part of the direct entry review and confirmed in the relevant live trading agreement.
Withdrawals may be requested once the account is in profit, subject to account status, risk review, settlement, open positions, applicable deductions, and the terms of the relevant live trading agreement. Maintaining a capital buffer in the account is recommended to support ongoing trading and risk management.
Aralyx may delay, adjust, or refuse withdrawals where required due to risk, compliance, error correction, suspected misconduct, open disputes, or breach of these Legal terms.
15. Trading fees and platform costs
For traders who progress to live trading, Aralyx may cover approved trading fees, platform costs, and market data costs for an initial period of three months to support the transition to firm capital.
During the same three-month period, eligible traders may also receive a monthly stipend of $1,000.
The scope, duration, and eligibility for fee coverage and stipend support are determined by Aralyx and may vary depending on the trader, market, platform, exchange, broker, and live account structure. Aralyx may amend or withdraw this support where necessary.
16. Prohibited activities
You may not access or use the Services for any purpose other than that for which we make the Services available. As a user of the Services, you agree not to:

- Use multiple accounts to manipulate rankings or assessment outcomes
- Exploit platform, broker, or data errors, latencies, or glitches
- Misrepresent trade history or attempt to falsify performance records
- Structure trades in a manner solely designed to manipulate qualification metrics rather than demonstrate genuine trading skill
Market Conduct and Market Abuse
Users and live traders must comply with all applicable laws, regulations, exchange rules, market conduct rules, broker rules, clearing provider requirements, platform rules, data provider rules, and Aralyx policies when using the Services or accessing any live market.
This includes, without limitation, compliance with applicable rules relating to market abuse, market manipulation, insider dealing, unlawful disclosure of inside information, disruptive trading, order book conduct, position limits, exchange reporting, and fair and orderly market behaviour.
Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to, spoofing, layering, wash trading, coordinated trading, manipulative order entry, placing orders without genuine trading intent, creating or attempting to create a false or misleading impression of supply, demand, price, liquidity, volume, or market activity, misuse of confidential or inside information, disruptive trading, or any conduct that breaches applicable exchange, broker, clearing, platform, regulatory, or market conduct rules.
Aralyx may suspend or terminate access, refuse progression, restrict live trading, close or reduce positions, report conduct to relevant third parties or authorities, and take any other action it considers necessary where it suspects market abuse, misconduct, rule breaches, or behaviour inconsistent with professional trading standards.
17. Automated trading, external signals and platform manipulation
The use of automated or semi-automated trading systems is not permitted within the Assessment Track unless explicitly approved in writing by Aralyx. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to:
- Expert Advisors (EAs)
- Trading bots
- Algorithmic trading systems
- API-based execution or automation controlled by the user
- External signal services or trade mirroring tools
- Any system where trade decisions are generated or executed without direct trader input
All trading activity must reflect independent decision-making by the account holder. The use of third-party tools or services to replicate, mirror, or automate trades from external sources is strictly prohibited.
For the avoidance of doubt, Aralyx may use internal systems to monitor, replicate, route, process, or manage trading data and activity for operational, compliance, platform, risk, or infrastructure purposes. This does not grant users any permission to use automated, mirrored, copied, or externally controlled trading systems.
Users must not engage in any activity intended to manipulate, exploit, or interfere with the platform, its rules, or the evaluation process. Any activity deemed by Aralyx to be automated, externally controlled, manipulative, exploitative, or inconsistent with the intended use of the platform may result in immediate disqualification, suspension or termination of access, removal from rankings or eligibility, and forfeiture of any progression or associated benefits. All determinations are made at the sole discretion of Aralyx.
18. Meaningful trading activity
To count toward eligibility for progression, trading activity must demonstrate meaningful risk and genuine market intent. In assessing whether activity qualifies, Aralyx may consider trade size, holding period, entry and exit logic, risk exposure, strategy consistency, market context, trading frequency, and behaviour around rule thresholds.
Activity designed purely to satisfy assessment requirements rather than express a genuine trading strategy may not qualify and may result in disqualification. Where patterns appear artificial, Aralyx may request additional information, trading rationale, or supporting records.
19. Broker and platform connectivity
Aralyx allows users to connect supported brokers, trading platforms, and data sources for read-only performance tracking, risk monitoring, leaderboard calculation, and assessment review.
Brokerage and platform connectivity may be powered by Thor, Phoenix Technologies, or another appointed third-party connectivity provider. These providers enable Aralyx to receive account, trade, order, position, balance, equity, and performance data from supported broker or platform accounts.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, broker and platform connections used for the Assessment Track are intended to be read-only. Aralyx does not use these connections to place trades, modify orders, create positions, close positions, or otherwise trade on behalf of users.
Aralyx does not store your broker account password or broker login credentials. Where broker or platform access is connected through Thor, Phoenix Technologies, or another third-party provider, authentication, permissions, tokens, and account access may be handled by that third-party provider and/or the relevant broker or platform in accordance with their own systems, terms, privacy notices, and security standards.
By connecting a broker or platform account, you authorise Aralyx and its appointed connectivity providers to access, receive, process, and display the relevant trading and account data required to operate the Services, including performance tracking, risk monitoring, leaderboard ranking, assessment review, compliance checks, and platform functionality.
Supported integrations may include, but are not limited to:
- NinjaTrader
- Tradovate
- Rithmic
- cTrader
- DXtrade
- MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5
- dxFeed
- Other supported brokers, platforms, or integrations shown during onboarding
Support for any broker, platform, data source, or connectivity provider may change at any time. Aralyx does not guarantee that any specific broker, platform, data feed, or integration will remain available.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the right to connect the relevant broker or platform account and to share the associated data with Aralyx.
20. Third-party websites and content
The Services may contain links to other websites ('Third-party websites') as well as articles, photographs, text, graphics, pictures, designs, music, sound, video, information, applications, software, and other content or items belonging to or originating from third parties ('Third-party content'). Such Third-party websites and Third-party content are not investigated, monitored, or checked for accuracy, appropriateness, or completeness by us, and we are not responsible for any Third-party websites accessed through the Services or any Third-party content posted on, available through, or installed from the Services.
Aralyx relies on third-party providers for certain parts of the Services, including brokerage connectivity, account synchronisation, data transmission, market data, analytics, payments, hosting, communications, content, education, and platform infrastructure.
For brokerage and platform connectivity, Aralyx may use Thor, Phoenix Technologies, or another appointed third-party connectivity provider to facilitate read-only account synchronisation and broker data access.
Aralyx does not own or control these third-party systems. You acknowledge that third-party providers may experience outages, latency, errors, delays, data inaccuracies, authentication failures, API failures, incorrect permission displays, service interruptions, or changes to supported brokers and platforms.
Aralyx is not responsible for losses, errors, missed opportunities, disputes, delays, inaccurate metrics, ranking issues, failed connections, failed synchronisation, incorrect or delayed broker data, failed authentication, or account issues caused by third-party providers, brokers, platforms, APIs, or data sources.
Your use of third-party services may be subject to their own separate terms, conditions, policies, permissions, privacy notices, and fees.
21. Services management
We reserve the right, but not the obligation, to: (1) monitor the Services for violations of these Legal terms; (2) take appropriate legal action against anyone who, in our sole discretion, violates the law or these Legal terms, including without limitation reporting such user to law enforcement authorities; (3) in our sole discretion and without limitation, refuse, restrict access to, limit the availability of, or disable any of your contributions or any portion thereof; (4) in our sole discretion and without limitation, notice, or liability, to remove from the Services or otherwise disable all files and content that are excessive in size or are in any way burdensome to our systems; and (5) otherwise manage the Services in a manner designed to protect our rights and property and to facilitate the proper functioning of the Services.
Aralyx may change, suspend, remove, replace, or update any part of the platform, including assessment rules, cycle dates, subscription pricing, supported brokers and platforms, third-party providers, leaderboard logic, risk calculations, content access, live trading requirements, fee coverage, and profit split terms for future agreements. Changes may be made for operational, technical, commercial, legal, risk, or compliance reasons. Where required by law, users will be notified of material changes.
22. Data, metrics and leaderboard
Performance data, rankings, analytics, risk metrics, drawdown calculations, MFE, MAE, active trading days, and leaderboard positions are generated from broker-synchronised trading data, supported platform data, third-party connectivity providers, and internal Aralyx systems.
While Aralyx aims to provide accurate metrics, data may be delayed, incomplete, inaccurate, duplicated, missing, incorrectly transmitted, or affected by broker, platform, API, or third-party provider issues.
Aralyx reserves the right to:
- Recalculate performance
- Correct data errors
- Adjust rankings
- Exclude invalid or incomplete activity
- Override incorrect data
- Review accounts manually
- Pause, amend, or remove leaderboard results
- Request additional account or trading verification
Displayed metrics and rankings are not final until reviewed and confirmed by Aralyx.
Dashboard metrics and equity charts may be calculated from closed trades unless otherwise stated. Unrealised equity, open position risk, and intraday risk may be monitored separately for breach detection, risk control, and assessment integrity.
23. Content, education and market information
Aralyx may provide access to education, commentary, market content, squawk audio, trading floor communications, performance psychology material, webinars, and other resources. All content is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing provided by Aralyx, its team, partners, contributors, coaches, traders, or third-party providers constitutes investment advice, a trade recommendation, a signal service, portfolio management, or any financial promotion to buy or sell any product. You are solely responsible for your own trading decisions.
24. No financial advice
Aralyx does not provide regulated investment advice, portfolio management, brokerage services, or execution services to users through the Assessment track or otherwise. Any trading decisions you make are your own. You should not rely on any Aralyx content, communication, tool, alert, discussion, leaderboard, or data point as a recommendation to trade. Trading involves substantial risk, and you may lose money.
25. Risk disclosure
Trading financial markets involves substantial risk. You acknowledge that:
- Markets can move rapidly and unpredictably
- Leverage can amplify losses significantly
- Liquidity conditions can change without notice
- Execution may be delayed, unavailable, rejected, or affected by market conditions
- Data, prices, metrics, rankings, and account information may be inaccurate, delayed, incomplete, duplicated, or unavailable
- Platform, broker, exchange, clearing, data provider, API, or connectivity issues may affect trading, assessment results, metrics, or access
- Past performance does not guarantee future results
- Assessment Track performance does not guarantee suitability for live trading or future profitability
Aralyx does not accept deposits into trading accounts and does not hold client trading funds.
During the Assessment Track, you trade through your own connected broker or trading platform account. You remain responsible for all trading decisions, losses, fees, commissions, margin requirements, account restrictions, and other consequences arising in that account.
Where a trader progresses to live trading, any access to firm capital is provided under a separate live trading agreement and is subject to defined risk parameters, permissions, controls, and ongoing oversight.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Aralyx is not liable for trading losses, missed profits, market movements, execution issues, broker errors, platform failures, third-party provider failures, data inaccuracies, connectivity issues, or losses arising from your own trading decisions or breach of these Legal Terms.
26. Trading floor comms
Trading floor comms is provided to support market discussion, community, education, and communication. You agree not to:
- Share confidential information from Trading floor comms outside the platform
- Harass, abuse, threaten, or impersonate other users
- Post illegal, offensive, misleading, or harmful content
- Present trade signals as guaranteed outcomes
- Misuse market information
- Circumvent read-only or permission settings
- Copy, scrape, or redistribute content without prior written permission
Aralyx may monitor, moderate, restrict, or remove access to Trading floor comms at its discretion.
Aralyx personnel and no authority
Aralyx employees, contractors, mentors, risk managers, pod leaders, traders, and representatives interact with users in a professional capacity on behalf of Aralyx.
No individual has authority to guarantee progression, live trading access, capital allocation, profit split, fee coverage, withdrawal approval, physical floor access, or any other benefit unless confirmed in writing by an authorised representative of Aralyx under the relevant agreement.
No statement, communication, message, call, or conduct by any Aralyx representative amends these Legal Terms, waives any requirement, or creates a binding commitment unless expressly confirmed in writing by Aralyx.
27. Intellectual property rights

29. User data

Aralyx does not store your broker account password or broker login credentials. Where broker or platform access is connected through a third-party provider, authentication and account permission handling may be managed by that provider and/or the relevant broker or platform.
You confirm that you have the right to connect the relevant account and share the associated data with Aralyx.
You remain responsible for ensuring the accuracy, legality, and ownership of any account, broker, platform, or data source connected to the Services.
Aralyx may retain certain data relating to your use of the Services for platform operation, assessment review, compliance, audit, dispute resolution, research, and legal purposes, subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
30. Privacy policy
We care about data privacy and security. Aralyx processes personal data in accordance with its Privacy policy available at https://www.aralyx.com/privacy-policy. By using the Services, you agree to be bound by our Privacy policy, which is incorporated into these Legal terms. Your personal data may be processed for account creation, payment, platform access, broker connectivity, KYC, compliance, communication, analytics, and service delivery. Please review our Privacy policy for further information.
31. Data protection and your rights
Aralyx is the data controller for personal data processed through the Services. We process personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Irish Data Protection Act 2018, and other applicable data protection law. Our company and contact details are set out in these Legal Terms and in our Privacy Policy.
We process your personal data on one or more of the following lawful bases: the performance of a contract with you; compliance with a legal or regulatory obligation; your consent, which you may withdraw at any time; and our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the Services, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
Personal and trading data processed through the Services is hosted and processed within the European Economic Area (EEA). Our broker connectivity providers, Thor and Phoenix Technologies, are established in France within the European Union. Where any transfer of personal data outside the EEA becomes necessary, we will ensure an appropriate safeguard recognised under the GDPR, such as an adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses, is in place.
Under the GDPR, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data:
- The right of access, to obtain confirmation that we process your personal data and a copy of that data
- The right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete personal data
- The right to erasure, to request deletion of your personal data where there is no lawful basis for continued processing
- The right to restriction of processing in certain circumstances
- The right to data portability, to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format
- The right to object to processing based on our legitimate interests, and to object to direct marketing at any time
- Rights in relation to automated decision-making, not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing that produces legal or similarly significant effects, except as permitted by law
- The right to withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@aralyx.com. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law, normally within one month. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in these Legal terms and our Privacy policy, including platform operation, assessment review, compliance, audit, dispute resolution, and legal purposes, after which it is deleted or anonymised.
If you believe we have not handled your personal data in accordance with applicable law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Irish Data Protection Commission, or with the supervisory authority in your country of residence. We would, however, welcome the opportunity to address your concerns directly before you do so.
32. User generated contributions
We may provide you with the opportunity to create, submit, post, display, transmit, perform, publish, distribute, or broadcast content and materials to us or on the Services, including but not limited to text, writings, video, audio, photographs, graphics, comments, suggestions, or personal information or other material (collectively, 'Contributions'). When you create or make available any Contributions, you represent and warrant that your Contributions are accurate, lawful, not misleading, not harassing, and do not violate any applicable law, regulation, or rule or the intellectual property rights of any third party. Any use of the Services in violation of the foregoing may result in termination or suspension of your rights to use the Services.

We do not assert any ownership over your Contributions. You retain full ownership of all of your Contributions and any intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights associated therewith.
34. Term and termination
These Legal terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN THESE LEGAL TERMS OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICES OR DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION.
Aralyx may suspend, restrict, or terminate access at any time where it believes it is necessary to protect platform integrity, other users, the firm, third-party providers, legal or regulatory compliance, risk systems, or trading standards. This may include, without limitation, cases involving breach of these Legal terms, suspected misconduct, prohibited trading behaviour, payment failure, identity or KYC failure, sanctions concerns, abuse of systems, misuse of Trading floor comms, attempted manipulation of rankings, or unacceptable conduct.
If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and creating a new account under your name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third party. Where access is terminated for breach, misconduct, or prohibited activity, no refund or compensation will be owed, except where required by applicable law.
35. Modifications and interruptions
We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Services at any time or for any reason at our sole discretion without notice. We also reserve the right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Services without notice at any time. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services.
We cannot guarantee the Services will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software, or other problems or need to perform maintenance related to the Services, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors. You agree that we have no liability whatsoever for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by your inability to access or use the Services during any downtime or discontinuance of the Services.
36. Governing law
These Legal terms are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Ireland, and the use of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sales of Goods is expressly excluded. If your habitual residence is in the EU, and you are a consumer, you additionally possess the protection provided to you by obligatory provisions of the law in your country of residence. Aralyx and yourself both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Dublin, which means that you may make a claim to defend your consumer protection rights in regards to these Legal terms in Ireland, or in the EU country in which you reside.
37. Dispute resolution
Informal negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Legal Terms (each a 'Dispute' and collectively, the 'Disputes') brought by either you or us (individually, a 'Party' and collectively, the 'Parties'), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding arbitration
Any dispute arising from the relationships between the Parties to these Legal Terms shall be determined by one arbitrator who will be chosen in accordance with the Arbitration and Internal Rules of the European Court of Arbitration being part of the European Centre of Arbitration having its seat in Strasbourg, and which are in force at the time the application for arbitration is filed, and of which adoption of this clause constitutes acceptance. The seat of arbitration shall be Dublin, Ireland. The language of the proceedings shall be English. Applicable rules of substantive law shall be the law of Ireland.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law: (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilise class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorised use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief.
38. Corrections

41. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless, including our subsidiaries, affiliates, and all of our respective officers, agents, partners, directors, employees, contractors, and providers, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) your use of the Services; (2) breach of these Legal Terms; (3) any breach of your representations and warranties set forth in these Legal Terms; (4) your trading activity; (5) your misuse of third-party services; (6) your violation of the rights of a third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights; or (7) any overt harmful act toward any other user of the Services with whom you connected via the Services.
Where a user’s or live trader’s conduct causes or contributes to any fine, sanction, penalty, claim, loss, charge, fee, investigation cost, legal cost, exchange cost, broker cost, clearing cost, platform cost, data provider cost, regulatory cost, or other expense incurred by Aralyx, its affiliates, clearing providers, brokers, platforms, data providers, or other relevant third parties, Aralyx reserves the right to recover, deduct, set off, or pass through such amounts to the user or live trader to the fullest extent permitted by law.
This applies, without limitation, to costs arising from breach of these Legal Terms, breach of any live trading agreement, prohibited trading behaviour, market abuse, exchange rule breaches, misuse of the Services, inaccurate information, failed compliance obligations, or conduct that causes loss or liability to Aralyx or any third party.
