CONFIDENTIAL

1. Introduction and Scope

These Terms of Business (“Terms”) govern the relationship between GRIT Trading Academy (“we”, “us”, “our”, “the Academy”) and any individual or entity (“you”, “the Client”, “the Member”) who purchases, accesses, or uses any of our educational modules, community forums, mentorship services, or related offerings (collectively, “the Services”).

By purchasing any module or accessing any part of our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms in their entirety. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not purchase or access any of our Services.

These Terms should be read in conjunction with our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and any supplementary documentation provided at the point of purchase.

2. Nature of Services

2.1 Educational Purpose Only

The Academy provides educational content, training materials, community discussion forums, and mentorship services strictly for educational and informational purposes. Our Services are designed to help individuals develop their knowledge and understanding of financial markets and trading concepts.

2.2 Not Financial Advice

IMPORTANT: Nothing provided by the Academy, whether through our modules, community forums, mentorship sessions, live demonstrations, case studies, or any other medium, constitutes, or should be construed as constituting:

  • Financial advice, investment advice, or trading advice within the meaning of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (as amended)
  • A personal recommendation to buy, sell, hold, or otherwise deal in any financial instrument, security, cryptocurrency, derivative, or other investment product
  • Tax advice, legal advice, or any other form of regulated professional advice
  • An inducement, invitation, or solicitation to engage in any investment activity
  • A guarantee, representation, or warranty as to the future performance of any financial market, instrument, or trading strategy

2.3 Regulatory Status

GRIT Trading Academy is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and does not carry out any regulated activities as defined under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 or the Financial Services and Markets Act 2023. We do not hold any FCA permissions, and we are not registered on the FCA Register.

We do not provide portfolio management services, manage client funds, execute trades on behalf of clients, or provide any service that would require FCA authorisation.

Any individual associated with the Academy who holds professional qualifications (including but not limited to the CFA Charter, CISI qualifications, or similar designations) does so in a personal capacity. Such qualifications do not alter the educational nature of the Services provided, nor do they create any advisory, fiduciary, or regulatory relationship between the Academy and its Members.

3. Service Description

3.1 Educational Modules

The Academy offers seven (7) educational modules, each available for individual purchase at a price of $689 (six hundred and eighty-nine US dollars) per module. Modules cover various aspects of financial market education including, but not limited to, concepts related to foreign exchange (forex), equities, cryptocurrencies, options, and futures.

Module content is provided as-is at the time of purchase and may include pre-recorded video content, written materials, case studies, quizzes, and supplementary resources. The Academy reserves the right to update, modify, or retire module content at any time without prior notice.

3.2 Community Forums

Purchased modules may include access to our online community forums hosted on the Skool platform. Community forums are provided for peer-to-peer discussion and educational exchange. Views expressed by community members, including Academy staff and mentors, within the forums do not constitute financial advice.

3.3 Mentorship Services

Certain modules or packages may include access to one-on-one mentorship or coaching sessions. Mentorship is provided for educational purposes only and is subject to availability. Mentorship sessions are not advisory in nature, and mentors do not provide personalised financial recommendations.

4. Payment Terms

Payment must be made in full at the time of purchase via the payment methods available on our platform. We reserve the right to modify accepted payment methods at any time.
