By accessing and using the Axiom cryptocurrency trading platform ("Platform"), operated by Northern Peak Trading Inc., you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Northern Peak Trading Inc. ("Company", "we", "us", or "our").
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform constitutes acceptance of any modifications to these Terms.
The Platform is intended for users who are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into binding contracts. By using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.
Axiom provides a digital platform for cryptocurrency trading services, including but not limited to:
The Company reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Platform at any time without prior notice. We may also impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Platform without liability.
All services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
To access certain features of the Platform, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update such information to maintain its accuracy. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
In compliance with applicable anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) regulations, you may be required to provide additional identification documents and information. Failure to provide requested information may result in account limitations or termination.
You are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your account. You must immediately notify us of any unauthorized access or security breach. We recommend enabling two-factor authentication and using strong, unique passwords.
The Company will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to maintain adequate security measures.
All trades are executed based on current market conditions and available liquidity. The Company does not guarantee the execution of any order at a specific price or within a specific timeframe. Orders may be subject to slippage, particularly during periods of high volatility.
The Company may impose trading limits based on account verification level, trading history, and regulatory requirements. These limits may include daily, weekly, or monthly transaction volumes and withdrawal amounts.
Users are strictly prohibited from engaging in any form of market manipulation, including but not limited to wash trading, spoofing, layering, or pump-and-dump schemes. Violation of this policy will result in immediate account termination and may be reported to relevant authorities.
The Company reserves the right to cancel or reverse transactions in cases of technical errors, suspected fraud, market manipulation, or violation of these Terms. Users will be notified of such actions when reasonably possible.
The Platform charges fees for trading services, which may vary based on trading volume, account type, and market conditions. Current fee schedules are available on the Platform and may be updated periodically with reasonable notice.
Fees may apply to deposits and withdrawals depending on the payment method and cryptocurrency network used. Network fees (gas fees) for blockchain transactions are separate from Platform fees and are determined by the respective blockchain networks.
Additional fees may apply for premium features, expedited processing, or specialized services. All applicable fees will be clearly disclosed before you complete a transaction.
The Company reserves the right to modify fee structures with at least 30 days' notice. Continued use of the Platform after fee changes constitutes acceptance of the new fee structure.
You are responsible for complying with all applicable laws and regulations in your jurisdiction, including tax obligations related to cryptocurrency trading. The Company does not provide legal or tax advice.
You agree not to use the Platform for any unlawful purpose or in any way that violates these Terms. Prohibited activities include:
You are responsible for conducting your own research and due diligence before making any trading decisions. The Company does not endorse or recommend any specific cryptocurrency or trading strategy.
Cryptocurrency trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. You should carefully consider whether trading is appropriate for your financial situation.
Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile and can experience rapid price fluctuations. The value of digital assets can increase or decrease dramatically in short periods, potentially resulting in significant financial losses.
Certain cryptocurrencies may have limited liquidity, making it difficult to execute trades at desired prices. Low liquidity can result in wider bid-ask spreads and increased slippage.
Blockchain technology and cryptocurrency systems are subject to various technical risks, including software bugs, network congestion, hard forks, and security vulnerabilities. These risks may result in loss of access to assets or loss of value.
The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving and uncertain. Changes in laws or regulations may adversely affect the value of digital assets or the ability to trade them.
Trading on the Platform involves counterparty risk. While we implement security measures, there is no guarantee against loss due to technical failures, security breaches, or insolvency.
Nothing on the Platform constitutes investment, financial, legal, or tax advice. You should consult with qualified professionals before making any investment decisions.
Northern Peak Trading Inc. operates in compliance with Canadian securities laws and regulations. The Platform is subject to oversight by relevant Canadian regulatory authorities, including provincial securities commissions.
We maintain comprehensive AML policies and procedures in accordance with the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA). Users must comply with all AML requirements, including transaction monitoring and reporting obligations.
We implement robust KYC procedures to verify user identities and assess risk profiles. Users must provide accurate identification documents and information as requested. Enhanced due diligence may be required for high-value transactions or high-risk jurisdictions.
The Platform complies with all applicable economic sanctions programs. Users from sanctioned jurisdictions or appearing on sanctions lists are prohibited from using the Platform.
The Company may be required to report certain transactions or suspicious activities to regulatory authorities. By using the Platform, you consent to such reporting as required by law.
