Clients acknowledge and accept that despite our reasonable efforts to maintain account connectivity, disconnections or technical issues may occur at any time, including during live trading sessions, and for reasons outside of our control (including but not limited to internet outages, third-party platform issues, server instability, user-side problems, or unforeseen technical malfunctions).
