Terms of Use
Last updated 14 November 2026
Agreeing to these terms
These terms are an agreement between you and CapitalWave Inc. ("CapitalWave", "we", "us") about your use of Options & Derivatives Analyzer ("ODA"). By using ODA you agree to them, and to our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Educational Disclaimer and Copyright notice. If you don't agree, don't use ODA.
If your organization has its own agreement with CapitalWave, that agreement governs the relationship between your organization and us. These terms govern your own use of ODA. An individual account doesn't let you bind your organization to anything.
Who can use ODA
You must be at least 18 years old. If you use ODA for an organization, you confirm that you're allowed to act for it. Organizations must not enroll anyone under 18.
Your account
- Use an email address that's yours and that you can read. Sign-in codes and links are sent there, so keep that email account secure.
- Each account is for one person. Don't share sign-in codes or links, or let others use your account.
- On a shared or public computer, tick the shared-computer box when you sign in, and sign out when you're done.
- Tell us straight away at legal@capitalwave.com if you think someone else has used your account.
Accounts through your organization
If you joined through a university, employer or training company, your organization controls its cohorts. Its instructors, teaching assistants and administrators can see your work, and it can remove you from its cohorts. If its subscription ends, you may lose access to its cohorts and the work in them. Your organization's own rules, including its academic-integrity rules, also apply to you.
Instructors and administrators
If you teach or administer in ODA, use learner records only to teach, support and assess your learners. Keep exports secure, and don't show one learner's private results on a shared screen. Don't present a score from ODA on its own as proof of professional competence.
Using ODA without an account
Anyone may use ODA's analytics tools without an account, for their own learning and teaching and not for commercial use.
Acceptable use
Don't:
- break the law, or use ODA to harm others;
- try to see other people's data, get around access controls, or probe ODA's security without our written permission;
- copy, scrape or republish ODA's content in bulk, including the question bank and labs;
- share exam questions or answers, or otherwise break your organization's academic-integrity rules;
- overload, disrupt or reverse-engineer ODA, or upload malicious code;
- enter real client data, confidential trading information, payment details or other sensitive personal information;
- use the AI tutor to produce harmful content, or try to make it reveal its instructions;
- send spam or misleading messages through the contact or demo forms;
- present ODA's results as professional investment advice to others.
AI features
The tutor and the suggested marks are generated by AI. They can be wrong, so check important points with your instructor. Don't enter sensitive personal information. Tutor conversations are kept for 12 months, and your instructors and CapitalWave staff may read them to check quality.
Your content
You keep ownership of what you create in ODA, such as your answers and the labs you build. You give CapitalWave, and the organizations whose cohorts you're in, permission to store, copy, display and process it to run ODA and to teach and grade. If you submit a lab to the shared lab library and we accept it, you also allow us to offer it to other users. The Copyright notice has the details.
You're responsible for your content. Don't upload anything you don't have the right to share.
Our content
ODA, including its software, tools, labs, question bank, text and design, belongs to CapitalWave or its licensors. We give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable permission to use ODA for learning and teaching, as these terms allow. We may withdraw that permission if you break these terms.
Fees
The analytics tools are free to use. Paid use, such as cohorts, labs, exams and reports for an organization, is covered by a separate order or agreement between the organization and CapitalWave.
Changes and availability
We improve ODA all the time and may add, change or remove features. We aim to keep ODA available, but it may sometimes be down for maintenance or because of problems beyond our control. Unless your organization's agreement says otherwise, we don't promise any level of availability.
Suspension and ending
You can stop using ODA at any time and ask us to delete your account. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms, if your organization asks, or if we have to for legal or security reasons. Where it's reasonable, we'll tell you first. Suspending access doesn't by itself delete records we must keep.
Disclaimers
ODA is an educational tool, not investment advice; see the Educational Disclaimer. As far as the law allows, ODA is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. This includes warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.
Limits on liability
As far as the law allows, CapitalWave isn't liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or goodwill, arising from your use of ODA. Our total liability for any claim about ODA is limited to the greater of what you paid us for ODA in the 12 months before the claim and US$100.
Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law.
Indemnity
As far as the law allows, you agree to cover CapitalWave's reasonable losses and costs from claims by others that arise from your breach of these terms or your content.
Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
If a dispute about ODA arises, please contact us first so we can try to settle it informally. If we can't, it will be decided by the state courts of Arlington County, Virginia, or the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria Division, and you and CapitalWave agree to those courts' jurisdiction. Either of us may bring a claim in small-claims court instead.
If you're a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom or another country whose laws give you rights that can't be waived, nothing in this section removes those rights. That includes the right to bring a claim in your local courts.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. We'll post the new version here and update the date at the top. If a change is significant, we'll tell you by email or in ODA before it takes effect. If you keep using ODA after that, you accept the new terms.
General
These terms, together with the policies they mention, are the whole agreement between you and CapitalWave about ODA. If any part can't be enforced, the rest still applies. If we don't enforce a right, we haven't given it up. You may not transfer these terms to anyone else. We may transfer them as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.
