About WitherNode
WitherNode delivers real-time insights on cryptocurrencies, blockchain, and the stock market. We provide data-driven analysis of crypto coins, DeFi trends, and equities with actionable charts and research. Users can track Bitcoin, Ethereum, and major stocks with market data, news, and alerts, as well as access tutorials, tools, and in-depth reports designed to inform portfolio decisions.
Eligibility and Account Registration
You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement and that you have the authority to enter into these Terms.
To access certain features, you may need to create an account and provide accurate, current, and complete information. You agree to maintain and promptly update your information as necessary. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use or suspected breach of security.
Market Data, Research, and No Investment Advice
The Service provides market data, news, research, charts, analytics, and educational content relating to cryptocurrencies, blockchain projects, and equities. All content is provided for informational and educational purposes only and is not intended as, and must not be construed as, investment, financial, legal, accounting, tax, or other professional advice.
WitherNode is not responsible for any actions you take based on the information provided through the Service. Trading and investing involve substantial risk, including the possible loss of principal. You are solely responsible for your investment decisions and for seeking advice from qualified professionals before making financial decisions.
Not a Broker, Dealer, or Investment Adviser
WitherNode is not a broker-dealer, investment adviser, commodity trading advisor, or money transmitter, and does not engage in activities requiring such registration under U.S. law. We do not execute trades, hold customer funds or securities, or provide personalized investment recommendations. Any references to specific securities, digital assets, strategies, or markets are purely informational.
Subscriptions, Trials, and Automatic Renewals
Some features of the Service may be offered on a paid subscription basis ("Subscription"). If you enroll in a Subscription with a free trial, you will receive the trial only once per user unless we specify otherwise. At the end of the trial period, your Subscription will automatically convert to a paid plan and your payment method will be charged the then-current rate unless you cancel before the trial ends.
Subscriptions renew automatically at the interval you select (e.g., monthly or annually) until canceled. We will disclose the frequency, price, and how to cancel at the point of purchase. You can cancel at any time through your account settings or by contacting us using the information in the Contact Information section. Cancelation takes effect at the end of the current billing period unless otherwise stated.
Payments, Taxes, and Refunds
You authorize WitherNode and its payment processors to charge all amounts due for Subscriptions or other paid offerings to the payment method you provide. You agree to keep a valid payment method on file and to pay all fees and applicable taxes. Prices and features are subject to change with notice to the extent required by law.
Unless otherwise specified at the time of purchase or required by law, all fees are non-refundable and fully earned upon payment. We may, at our sole discretion, offer goodwill credits or refunds. If a charge fails, we may retry the charge and may suspend or terminate access to paid features until payment is received.
User Content and License
Users may submit, upload, or post content, including comments, watchlists, strategies, feedback, and other materials ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content. By providing User Content, you grant WitherNode a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, publicly perform, and publicly display your User Content in connection with operating, improving, and promoting the Service.
