1. Agreement

By using the Site, you agree to be bound by our Terms of Use (the “TOU”). If you do not agree to the terms and conditions contained in the TOU and BDC REPORTER’s privacy policy, please do not access or otherwise use the Site or any information contained herein.

 

You affirm that you are over the age of 18, as the Site is not intended for children under 18. If it comes to BDC REPORTER’s attention through reliable means that a registered user is a child under 18 years of age, BDC REPORTER will cancel that user’s account.

2. Changes to the TOU

We reserve the right at any time to:

 

  • Change the terms and conditions of the TOU;
  • Change the Site, including eliminating or discontinuing any content or feature of the Site; or
  • Impose fees, charges or other conditions for use of the Site or parts thereof (with reasonable notice).

 

BDC REPORTER may modify the Site at any time without prior notice, and you accept those modifications if you continue to use the Site. You should check the Site frequently to see recent changes.

3. Important Securities Disclaimer

 

You understand that no content published on the Site constitutes a recommendation that any particular security, portfolio of securities, transaction or investment strategy is suitable for any specific person. You further understand that the BDC REPORTER is NOT advising you personally concerning the nature, potential, value or suitability of any particular security, portfolio of securities, transaction, investment strategy or other matter. To the extent that any of the content published on the Site may be deemed to be investment advice or recommendations in connection with a particular security, such information is impersonal and not tailored to the investment needs of any specific person. You understand that an investment in any security is subject to a number of risks, and that discussions of any security published on the Site will not contain a list or description of all relevant risk factors. In addition, please note that some of the stocks about which content is published on the Site have a low market capitalization and/or insufficient public float. Such stocks are subject to more risk than stocks of larger companies, including greater volatility, lower liquidity and less publicly available information.

 

You understand that performance data is supplied by sources believed to be reliable, that the calculations herein are made using such data, and that such calculations are not guaranteed by these sources, the information providers, or any other person or entity, and may not be complete.

 

From time to time, reference may be made on our Site to prior articles and opinions we have published. These references may be selective, may reference only a portion of an article or opinion, and are likely not to be current. As markets change continuously, previously published information and data may not be current and should not be relied upon.

 

All content on the Site is presented only as of the date published or indicated, and may be superseded by subsequent market events or for other reasons. I

 

  1. No Investment Recommendations or Professional Advice

 

The Site is not intended to provide tax, legal, insurance or investment advice, and nothing on the Site should be construed as an offer to sell, a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a recommendation for any security by BDC REPORTER or any third party. You alone are solely responsible for determining whether any investment, security or strategy, or any other product or service, is appropriate or suitable for you based on your investment objectives and personal and financial situation. You should consult an attorney or tax professional regarding your specific legal or tax situation.
