Website Terms of Use
Effective date: [EFFECTIVE DATE]
Last updated: [LAST UPDATED]
These Website Terms of Use (the "Terms") govern your access to and use of https://www.rivendell.capital and its associated language versions (the "Site"). The Site is operated by [LEGAL ENTITY NAME], under the Rivendell brand ("Rivendell," "we," "us," or "our").
By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.
1. Informational website only
The Site provides general corporate, strategy, methodology, risk-management, and market-related information. It is not a trading platform, client portal, custody service, account service, or execution venue.
The Site does not create an investment manager-client, adviser-client, fiduciary, agency, partnership, or other professional relationship. Any service provided by Rivendell or an affiliate is subject to eligibility review, applicable law, and separate definitive agreements. If these Terms conflict with a signed client agreement, the signed agreement controls for the relevant service.
2. No offer, solicitation, or advice
Nothing on the Site constitutes or should be construed as:
- an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security, digital asset, fund interest, investment product, or service;
- investment, financial, legal, tax, accounting, custody, or trading advice;
- a recommendation or endorsement of any asset, strategy, venue, protocol, counterparty, or transaction; or
- a representation that any product, strategy, or service is suitable or available for any person or jurisdiction.
You should obtain independent professional advice and conduct your own due diligence before making any investment or business decision.
3. No funds, instructions, or credentials through the Site
Rivendell does not accept funds, digital assets, trading instructions, private keys, seed phrases, passwords, exchange credentials, or API credentials through the Site.
Do not submit such information through any Site field, URL parameter, support channel, or other website mechanism. Information sent in this manner will not constitute a valid instruction, subscription, order, mandate, or notice to Rivendell.
4. Eligibility and geographic restrictions
The Site is intended primarily for institutional, professional, and other sophisticated audiences. It is not directed to any person in a jurisdiction where publication, access, distribution, or use would be unlawful or would require registration or authorisation that has not been obtained.
You are responsible for determining whether you may lawfully access and use the Site. Access to restricted materials or services may require identity, jurisdiction, investor-status, compliance, and other eligibility checks.
5. Digital-asset and investment risks
Digital assets and quantitative strategies involve substantial risk. Risks may include market volatility, loss of principal, leverage, model failure, liquidity constraints, technology or cybersecurity failures, counterparty or venue failure, custody risk, operational disruption, forks or protocol changes, and legal or regulatory changes.
Past performance, simulated performance, targets, forecasts, backtests, scenarios, or examples are not guarantees of future results. Actual results may differ materially, and losses may include the entire amount invested. Nothing on the Site should be relied upon as a promise of performance, capital preservation, liquidity, or risk limitation.
6. Performance, metrics, and other information
Information on the Site is provided as of the date indicated or, if no date is shown, as of the date it was prepared. Figures such as assets under management, trading volume, operating history, or strategy statistics may be subject to defined calculation methodologies, exclusions, estimates, rounding, change, and additional disclosures.
Market data and third-party information may be obtained from sources believed to be reliable, but we do not guarantee that it is accurate, complete, current, or independently verified. Rivendell has no obligation to update any Site content except as required by law.
7. Permitted and prohibited use

Unless otherwise stated, the Site and its text, design, graphics, code, trademarks, logos, and other content are owned by or licensed to [LEGAL ENTITY NAME] and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Rivendell grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access the Site in accordance with these Terms. No other licence is granted.
9. Third-party names, logos, links, and services
Third-party names, trademarks, and logos belong to their respective owners. Any reference to a current or former employer, technology provider, venue, counterparty, or other third party is for identification or factual context only and does not imply sponsorship, endorsement, partnership, or ongoing affiliation unless expressly stated.
The Site may link to third-party websites or services. Rivendell does not control and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, terms, or privacy practices. Your use of them is at your own risk and subject to their terms.
10. Site availability and security
We may modify, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any part of the Site at any time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free access, or that defects will be corrected. You are responsible for protecting your own devices, systems, accounts, and data.
11. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Site and its content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory. Rivendell disclaims warranties of accuracy, completeness, currency, merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, security, and availability.
Nothing in these Terms excludes any warranty or responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, [LEGAL ENTITY NAME], its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive loss, or for loss of profits, revenue, business, opportunity, goodwill, data, or use, arising out of or relating to the Site.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the aggregate liability of those parties for all claims relating to the Site will not exceed [LIABILITY CAP AND CURRENCY].
These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded.
13. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless [LEGAL ENTITY NAME], its affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the Site, your material breach of these Terms, or your infringement of another person’s rights.

Our collection and use of information through the Site is described in our Privacy Policy. Cookie choices are available through [COOKIE SETTINGS LINK OR CONTROL].
15. Changes to the Site or these Terms
We may update the Site and these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms take effect when posted, unless a later date is stated. The "Last updated" date identifies the current version. Your continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
16. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site if we reasonably believe that you have breached these Terms, created security or legal risk, or used the Site unlawfully. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain effective.
17. Governing law and disputes
These Terms and any non-contractual obligations arising from them are governed by the laws of [GOVERNING LAW JURISDICTION], without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
Subject to any rights or forums that cannot lawfully be waived, the courts of [EXCLUSIVE COURTS / VENUE] will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from or relating to the Site or these Terms.
18. General provisions
If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect, and the affected provision will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign your rights under these Terms without our prior written consent; we may assign our rights in connection with a restructuring, merger, sale, or transfer of business. These Terms, together with documents expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement concerning use of the Site.
19. Language
These Terms may be provided in multiple languages. In the event of inconsistency, [ENGLISH / SPECIFIED CONTROLLING LANGUAGE] will control to the extent permitted by applicable law.
