Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure. As a result, while Tradalaxy strives to protect your information, it cannot ensure or warrant the security of any Content you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

These Terms are in addition to, and do not nullify, any other agreement between you and Tradalaxy or any other applicable terms and conditions found on the Site.

No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of the Terms and you have no authority of any kind to bind Tradalaxy in any respect whatsoever. The failure of any party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder.

Tradalaxy may transfer, assign or delegate the Terms and its rights and obligations without consent.
Any of these Terms which by its nature should survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability, shall survive termination and continue in full force and effect except to the extent expressly set out in these Terms.
