1. Introduction
Welcome to PolyRadar ("we," "us," "our"), accessible at polyradar.io (the "Website") and through our newsletter distributed via Substack (collectively, the "Service").

You represent that you are at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. If you are accessing the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
3. No Financial or Investment Advice

PolyRadar, its founders, contributors, employees, and affiliates shall not be held liable for any losses or damages arising from your reliance on our content.
PolyRadar team members may hold positions in prediction markets or crypto assets discussed in our content. Such positions are not disclosed on a per-article basis and should not be interpreted as endorsements or recommendations.
