Terms of Service
Last Updated: March 19, 2026 · Effective Date: March 19, 2026
Summary: OpenFinClaw Compute is an infrastructure platform that provides compute resources for AI-powered quantitative trading agents. We do NOT provide investment advice, manage your funds, or have access to your trading keys. You are fully responsible for your trading decisions and outcomes.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using OpenFinClaw Compute ("the Platform", "we", "us"), operated by OpenFinClaw ("the Company"), you ("User", "you") agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Platform.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. Material changes will be communicated via email or in-platform notification at least 14 days in advance.
2. Service Description
OpenFinClaw Compute is an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS+) platform that:
- Provides cloud compute resources (CPU, memory, storage) for running AI trading agents
- Hosts isolated container environments per user (tenant isolation)
- Proxies connections between your agent and external services (exchanges, LLM providers)
- Offers tools for strategy backtesting, paper trading, and live trading execution
2.1 What We Are NOT
- We are NOT a financial advisor, broker, or investment fund
- We do NOT provide investment advice or trading recommendations
- We do NOT manage, custody, or hold user funds
- We do NOT guarantee trading profits or strategy performance
- We do NOT have access to your plaintext exchange API keys or trading credentials
3. Account & Eligibility

- One person or entity per account; no account sharing

4. Data Ownership & Sovereignty
Core Principle: You own your data. We provide compute, you own everything else.
| Data Category | Owner | Platform Access |
| Exchange API Keys / Secrets | User | Encrypted; platform cannot read |
| Strategy source code & parameters | User | Runs in isolated container |
| Trading history & portfolio | User | Stored in user's container |
| Agent conversations & memory | User | Stored in user's container |
| Resource usage metrics (CPU/Mem) | Platform | Visible for billing & monitoring |
| Billing records | Shared | Visible |
4.1 Data Export & Portability
You may export all your data at any time. Exported data uses standard formats compatible with self-hosted OpenClaw instances, ensuring zero vendor lock-in.
4.2 Data Deletion
Upon account termination, all your data will be permanently destroyed within 30 days via cryptographic shredding (deletion of encryption keys, rendering all encrypted data irrecoverable).
5. Security
- Encryption: Exchange API keys are protected using AES-256-GCM envelope encryption. The platform stores only encrypted ciphertext and cannot decrypt your credentials without the master key chain.
- Isolation: Each user's agent runs in a dedicated, isolated container environment with network policies preventing cross-tenant communication.
- Responsibility: You are responsible for safeguarding your account password, exchange API keys, and any recovery materials. Do not share credentials.
6. Subscription & Billing
- Plans and pricing are listed on our Pricing page

- Paid subscriptions are billed monthly via Stripe
- You may upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time through the billing portal
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle; no partial refunds
- Overdue accounts may have their agents suspended (sleeping state); data is preserved for 30 days
7. Acceptable Use
You agree NOT to:
- Use the Platform for any illegal activity, money laundering, or sanctions evasion
- Attempt to access other users' containers, data, or resources
- Circumvent resource quotas, rate limits, or security controls

- Use the Platform to conduct market manipulation, wash trading, or other prohibited trading practices
- Resell or sublicense Platform access without written authorization
- Upload malicious code, malware, or content designed to compromise the Platform
