Document summary
These terms govern creator accounts, listing quality standards, moderation, seller obligations, buyer-facing disclosures, and OttoTrader's marketplace-enforcement powers.
This document is structured in short sections so the main obligations are easier to scan.
Users should read the legal pages together with the practical product guidance.
Who can sell
- Selling requires approved seller status, an active paid Creator subscription, accurate identity/business information and supported country/payment onboarding. Creator has no trial. Stripe payout readiness is checked separately from listing approval.
- Seller restrictions must relate to policy, legal, fraud or safety concerns. We will communicate reasons and review routes where permitted and honor legally required notice; urgent legal or safety action may require immediate restriction.
Seller promises and restrictions
- Sellers must only publish software logic, templates, automation modules, and related metadata they own or are authorized to license.
- Sellers must not promise profits, guaranteed returns, risk-free outcomes, passive income, or personalized investment results.
- Sellers must not present strategies as managed investments, advisory products, copy-trading programs, or regulated financial products.
- Sellers must not use fake backtests, misleading metrics, cherry-picked performance, stolen IP, or deceptive identity claims.
Standardized disclosures
- OttoTrader may require standardized fields for exchanges, symbols, timeframes, leverage, fee assumptions, slippage assumptions, drawdown, trade counts, and validation labeling.
- OttoTrader may require clear live vs simulated vs seller-provided labeling on all performance-related representations.
- Both Public and Full Reports must use OttoTrader’s current Institutional Stress Test Realism & Credibility preset. Public reports must omit exact trade timing, source logic and import/retest material. Full Reports are for private review and their uploaded bytes are scrubbed after approval.
- Declare the contracting seller’s legal identity and trader status accurately, honor advertised refund offers and mandatory consumer remedies, and update support when those details change.
Payouts and platform controls
- OttoTrader currently deducts a 2% platform fee from each completed marketplace sale before the seller payout is calculated.
- Seller payouts may be delayed, withheld, reversed, or offset for refunds, disputes, fraud checks, sanctions checks, reserves, or policy breaches.
- OttoTrader may moderate listings, require edits, suspend sales, or emergency-disable strategy delivery when needed.
- OttoTrader may record and communicate moderation reasons, complaint outcomes, and delisting decisions where law or platform policy requires it.
- The 2% platform fee is not a promise of net payout: refunds, disputes, processor charges and account-specific payout adjustments may affect amounts received. Review the transaction and payout records.
Seller complaints and enforcement
- Seller support, compliance questions, marketplace complaints, and moderation responses can be directed to [email protected].
- OttoTrader may temporarily or permanently restrict a seller account, listing, or payout state where buyer protection, legal risk, fraud indicators, sanctions exposure, or platform safety require intervention.
- Sellers remain responsible for complying with local laws, tax obligations, and any regulatory requirements that apply to their own business activity.
