Terms of Service

Last updated: 14 August 2026

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of taker, available at taker.trade and its subdomains (the “Interface”).

By accessing or using the Interface you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Interface. If you are using it on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity.

1. What taker is

taker is a software interface. It reads market data, turns instructions you give in natural language into structured orders, and submits those orders — at your direction — to third-party trading venues where you hold your own account.

taker is not a broker, dealer, exchange, marketplace, clearing house, custodian, money transmitter, or investment adviser. It does not hold your funds, does not take the other side of your trades, does not match orders, and does not decide what you should trade.

Every order originates from an instruction you gave. There is no autonomous strategy and no background trading.

2. No advice

Nothing available through the Interface is financial, investment, legal, accounting, or tax advice, or a recommendation, solicitation, or offer to enter any transaction. Market data, position figures, risk calculations, and analytics are provided for information only and may be inaccurate, delayed, or incomplete.

The assistant built into taker reports data and constructs orders you describe. It does not recommend trades, forecast prices, or assess whether a trade is a good idea, and you must not treat anything it produces as advice. Language models can be wrong, and confidently so.

Decisions about what to trade, at what size, and with what leverage are yours alone. You should obtain independent professional advice before trading.

3. Eligibility

You may use the Interface only if you can lawfully do so where you are. By using it you represent and warrant that you:

are at least 18 years old and have capacity to enter these Terms;
are not located in, ordinarily resident in, or a citizen of any jurisdiction subject to comprehensive economic sanctions;
are not identified on any sanctions or restricted-party list, including the U.S. Treasury Department’s Specially Designated Nationals list;
are not acting on behalf of any such person or entity; and
are not accessing the Interface from a jurisdiction where trading perpetual futures, or your use of the Interface, would breach applicable law.

Access may be restricted or refused at any time, including on the basis of jurisdiction, and features may differ by region. Wallet addresses are screened against sanctions lists, and a listed address will be refused.

4. Risk

Trading perpetual futures with leverage is extremely high risk and can result in the total loss of your funds, quickly. You should not trade with money you cannot afford to lose entirely. In particular:

Liquidation. If your margin falls below the venue’s maintenance requirement your position is closed by the venue, without notice and without regard to what you intended.
Stops are not guarantees. A stop order triggers at a price and then fills at the next price available, which in a fast or illiquid market can be materially worse.
Volatility and gaps. Crypto markets trade continuously and can move violently, including while you are asleep.
Venue and protocol risk. Venues can halt trading, change parameters, suffer outages, be exploited, or become insolvent. Smart contracts can contain defects.
Interface risk. Software can fail, and connectivity can be lost between you, taker, and the venue. An order may not reach the venue, or its outcome may be unknown for a period.
Irreversibility. Blockchain transactions and executed trades generally cannot be reversed.

You accept these risks in full, and you are solely responsible for your trading decisions and their outcomes.

5. Your wallet and the delegated key

You access the Interface by connecting a wallet you control. You are solely responsible for your wallet, its keys, and its security. taker cannot recover a lost key or reverse a transaction you authorised.

To trade, you approve a delegated trading key — on Hyperliquid, an API or “agent” wallet. That key can open, close and modify positions and orders. It cannot withdraw funds, transfer them, or move them into or out of vaults. This is a property of the key itself, enforced by the venue, not a policy taker applies to itself.

You will never be asked for a seed phrase or a main private key, and there is nowhere in the Interface to enter one. Any site asking you for either is not taker. You may revoke the delegated key at any time through the venue’s own interface, without involving taker.

You are responsible for all activity conducted through your connected wallet and delegated key, including instructions given by anyone with access to your device or session.

6. Acceptable use

You must not:

use the Interface in breach of any applicable law, regulation, or sanctions regime;
conceal your location or identity, or circumvent any access, geographic, or security control, including by using a VPN or proxy for that purpose;
manipulate any market, engage in wash trading, spoofing, layering, or any deceptive or manipulative practice;
access the Interface by automated means, or scrape, crawl, mine, frame, or mirror any part of it, except as expressly permitted;
interfere with, overload, or disrupt the Interface, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of it or to any other user’s account;
reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Interface, or attempt to derive its source code, except where that restriction is prohibited by law;
introduce malware or any harmful code; or
use the Interface to facilitate any unlawful activity, including money laundering or terrorist financing.

7. Content and permitted use

The Interface and its contents — text, graphics, interfaces, software, design, and the compilations and arrangements of data displayed — are protected by intellectual property rights owned by us or our licensors.

You must not use any part of the content on this website for commercial purposes without first obtaining the necessary licence. You may access and use the Interface for your own personal, non-commercial use only. You must not copy, redistribute, sell, sublicense, or create derivative works from any part of the Interface or the software it uses, nor extract or redistribute data made available through it, except as expressly permitted in writing.

8. Charting technology

Charts in the Interface are powered by TradingView, a charting platform for traders and investors. The charting library is used under licence, remains the property of TradingView, Inc., and may not be copied, extracted, or reused from the Interface.

9. Third-party services

Trades execute on third-party venues under those venues’ own terms, which you are responsible for reading and complying with. Language-model providers generate the assistant’s replies. Infrastructure providers host and front the Interface.

We do not control these parties and are not responsible for their availability, performance, pricing, execution, solvency, security, or conduct. Market data may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. Your venue account is the authoritative record of your positions, balances, and orders — not the Interface.

10. Fees

Using the Interface is free. Trades may incur fees charged by the venue, and orders routed through taker may carry a builder fee paid to us by the venue at the rates disclosed in the fees documentation. Network and gas costs, where applicable, are yours. You are responsible for all taxes arising from your trading.

11. Availability and changes

The Interface is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We may change, suspend, restrict, or discontinue any part of it at any time, with or without notice, and may impose limits on features or access. We do not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation.

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, including where we believe you have breached these Terms or where required by law. You may stop using the Interface at any time; revoking the delegated key at the venue ends taker’s ability to trade on your behalf immediately.

12. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE INTERFACE IS PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE INTERFACE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ACCURATE, OR FREE OF ERROR, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ANY ORDER WILL BE TRANSMITTED, EXECUTED, OR FILLED AT ANY PARTICULAR PRICE OR AT ALL.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY TRADING LOSSES, OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR DIGITAL ASSETS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE INTERFACE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE INTERFACE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL BUILDER FEES WE ACTUALLY RECEIVED FROM YOUR TRADING IN THE THREE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD 100).

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including for fraud or for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless taker, its operator, and their respective officers, members, employees, and agents against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your use of the Interface, your trading activity, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or third-party right.

15. Dispute resolution

Please read this section carefully. It affects how disputes are resolved.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Interface will be resolved by binding arbitration administered under the rules of a recognised arbitral institution, before a single arbitrator, conducted in English. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You and we each waive the right to a jury trial and the right to participate in any class, collective, or representative proceeding. Disputes will be resolved individually.

Either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for alleged infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property or breach of confidentiality.

Where mandatory consumer-protection law in your jurisdiction gives you rights that cannot be waived — including the right to bring proceedings locally — this section does not remove them.

16. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, USA, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles, except where mandatory law in your place of residence applies.

17. General

These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Interface. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder continues in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them to a successor entity.

We may update these Terms from time to time. The version published here is the version in force, and the date at the top reflects when it last changed. Material changes will be signalled on the Interface. Continuing to use the Interface after a change constitutes acceptance of it.
