Terms of Service & Disclaimers
Template terms: have counsel review before launch. Operator: PolyTruth.
1. Standardized research only (CFTC Rule 4.14(a)(9))
PolyTruth publishes standardized, impersonal research and settlement-rule audit content that is identical for every subscriber, in reliance on the exemption from commodity trading advisor registration in CFTC Rule 4.14(a)(9) (17 C.F.R. 4.14(a)(9)).
Nothing on this site is a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any contract, and nothing is tailored to your positions, balance, or circumstances. PolyTruth never asks for wallet balances, positions, private keys, or write-enabled exchange keys, and it never executes or routes trades.
Resolution-rule cards summarize public contract text. The venue’s own published rules always control. Cards are Autonomous 5-Point Settlement & Signal Audits generated from the contract text and public market data; they can contain errors. Verify the live rules on the venue before relying on them.
Prediction-market participation may be restricted where you live. You are responsible for complying with the venue’s terms and local law.
- All feeds, timelines, rule cards, and alerts are identical for every subscriber of the same plan.
- The service does not accept, store, or use wallet balances, portfolio positions, bankrolls, or other personal financial information to generate content.
- Content uses neutral, factual language and never contains buy, sell, or hold recommendations.
- No trade execution, order routing, custody, private keys, or write-enabled exchange credentials. Ever.
2. Retail-consumer eligibility
To create an account or subscribe you must certify, and we log with a timestamp, the following statement (version 2026-10-v1):
“I am an individual retail consumer using this tool solely for personal research, and I am NOT a Capital Markets Entity (such as a hedge fund, broker-dealer, proprietary trading firm, RIA, bank, or market-data distributor).”
Accounts found to be used by or on behalf of a Capital Markets Entity, or to redistribute data, will be terminated.
3. Third-party data
- Polymarket: market data comes from Polymarket’s free public Gamma and CLOB endpoints, polled at under one request per second in total.
- Kalshi: PolyTruth does not operate a server-side scraper or cache of Kalshi API data and does not redistribute it. Kalshi features run client-side: you paste rules text, or your own browser queries Kalshi with your own credentials stored only in your browser. A server-side Kalshi feed stays disabled unless written authorization from Kalshi is on file.
- Government sources: BLS, Federal Reserve, SEC, NOAA/NHC, and Federal Register feeds are public-domain U.S. government publications. We link to the original documents.
4. Accuracy
Rule cards summarize venue rules and may be incomplete or out of date. The venue’s published rules and its resolution process always control. Cards are Autonomous 5-Point Settlement & Signal Audits generated from the contract text and public market data. Tape and rule leans describe that data; they are not a guarantee of how a market will resolve and not a recommendation to trade.
5. Subscriptions
- Pro renews monthly until cancelled. Cancel anytime through the checkout provider; access continues to the end of the paid period.
- No introductory $1 trials that auto-rebill, no countdown-timer pricing, no lifetime plans.
6. Acceptable use
No scraping, reselling, or redistributing content or data from the service, and no attempts to circumvent usage limits.
7. Limitation of liability
The service is provided “as is” without warranties. To the maximum extent permitted by law, PolyTruth is not liable for trading losses or for decisions made using the service.
