Terms & Conditions
- By contributing any trade idea or other financial research (each a "Contribution") to, or accessing, the Tradelab portal ("Tradelab") of GSA Capital Partners LLP ("GSA"), the investment manager of certain funds (each a “Fund”), or by communicating a Contribution to any agent or staff member of GSA, you (being the individual making a Contribution and/or the entity the individual purports to represent, as the context requires) agree to these terms and conditions of use (the "Terms").
- Any Fund or its investment manager, GSA, acting on its behalf, may, in their sole and absolute discretion, use all or any part of a Contribution to execute a trade on behalf of a Fund. Each Fund and GSA acknowledges that any Contribution provided by you, either directly via Tradelab or for Tradelab via any staff member or representative of GSA or any Fund, does not constitute investment advice. Provided that you are not in breach of the representations and warranties set out below, you shall have no liability to the relevant Fund or GSA in relation to any Contribution and the relevant Fund, shall bear full legal and economic responsibility in its capacity as trading principal for any trade executed on the basis, in full or in part, of any such Contribution.
- Each relevant Fund may pay you a fee in respect of any Contributions made by you to Tradelab. The fee, and the methodology for its calculation if any, shall be at the sole discretion of the relevant Fund (which discretion may be exercised by GSA on such Fund’s behalf) and there is no requirement that any fee must be related to the trading performance of any Contribution. You agree that in no circumstances shall GSA be liable to you for any fee that you consider may be payable to you in relation to any Contribution you have made.
- You represent and warrant that any Contribution you provide shall: (a) not be unlawful, improper or illegal, and in particular shall not constitute "inside information" or "material non-public information" as such terms are understood under any applicable laws of the UK, EEA or USA or any analogous form of non-public, market-sensitive information recognised in any other applicable jurisdiction; (b) not constitute behaviour which may constitute or be indicative of "market abuse" as such term is understood under applicable laws of the UK, EEA or USA, or similar or analogous behaviour prohibited in any other applicable jurisdiction; (c) not contain any information about pending orders of your clients, or relate to a security or an issuer that is included on your "restricted list" or equivalent no-trading list at the time of you making the Contribution; and (d) not otherwise be deceptive, manipulative, abusive or prohibited by applicable laws.
- GSA will collect, store and process certain information relating to you, your Contribution and other data through your interactions with GSA as a data controller in accordance with GSA’s Privacy Notice https://www.gsacapital.com/privacy-notice. Subject to appropriate confidentiality arrangements, GSA may transfer such information to third parties (either inside or outside your country of residence) who provide services to GSA or any relevant Fund relating to Tradelab. You agree that you, or any person providing Contributions to GSA on your behalf, are aware of and acknowledge the terms of the Privacy Notice and will comply with all applicable data protection laws in their provision of personal data to GSA and Tradelab.
- You must provide, where legally permissible, any information which GSA or any Fund reasonably requires to meet its obligations under applicable laws and ensure that you have obtained the necessary consents to do so.
- These Terms supersede and replace any other agreement or communication purporting to govern the legal relationship between you, GSA or any Fund, as applicable, in respect of the matters discussed herein. GSA may amend these Terms from time to time by updating the published version on Tradelab.
- GSA is authorised and regulated in the conduct of investment business in the United Kingdom by the Financial Conduct Authority. "Tradelab" is a trade mark of GSA and all materials contained on Tradelab constitute intellectual property rights of GSA. All rights reserved. These Terms shall continue until terminated by GSA or a relevant Fund, as applicable. You may not, without GSA’s prior written consent, transfer or assign any rights or obligations under these Terms. GSA or any Fund, as applicable, may assign these Terms to an affiliate or a successor entity. The invalidity of part of these Terms shall not affect the validity of the remainder. These Terms, any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with them and all disputes arising from your use of Tradelab, will be governed by and construed in accordance with English law, and the courts of England will have exclusive jurisdiction thereover. © GSA Capital Partners LLP 2021.
