Terms of Service
Version 2.0 · 12 October 2026. Same text as on eightforex.com.
Version 2.0, 12 October 2026. Effective from the date of publication on eightforex.com.
1. About these Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and PT EIGHT FOREX INVESTAMA ("we", "us"), NIB 0508260171753, South Jakarta, Indonesia (details in Section 17).
They apply to eightforex.com and Eight Forex Journal at journal.eightforex.com, including the web app, the Eight Forex Journal Expert Advisor for MetaTrader 5 (the "EA"), statement import, and public profiles (the "Services").
By using the Services, you agree to these Terms and our Risk Disclaimer, and confirm you have read our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to enter into a binding contract. You are responsible for making sure that trading, and using the Services, is lawful where you live.
3. What we do and do not do
The Journal is a record-keeping tool for reviewing your own past trades.
We are not a broker, investment adviser, or fund manager, and we are not licensed by any financial regulator. Check that your broker is licensed by the competent authority in your jurisdiction. We do not:
- provide trading signals, recommendations, or investment, financial, tax, or legal advice;
- manage or trade any account for you;
- hold or handle client funds; or
- refer you to brokers or receive payments from brokers.
The Services are free: there are no paid plans, and sign-in is by email only (no Google or other third-party sign-in).
4. No advice; trading risk
Nothing in the Services is investment advice or an offer to buy or sell anything. Trading forex, CFDs, and other leveraged products carries a high risk of loss. Past performance does not indicate future results. You alone are responsible for your trading decisions. Our Risk Disclaimer forms part of these Terms.
5. Your account
You sign up with an email address and, optionally, a display name. Only one account is allowed per email address. Keep your login details and EA connection keys confidential; you are responsible for activity under your account. Tell us promptly at legal@eightforex.com if you suspect unauthorised use. Only connect or import trading accounts that you own or are authorised to use.
6. The EA and statement import
The EA only reads your trade history and account information and sends it to the Journal at https://journal.eightforex.com (you must add this address to the allowed WebRequest URLs in MetaTrader 5). It never opens, modifies, or closes trades, does not change your account settings, and never asks for your MetaTrader password.
We grant you a personal, non-transferable, revocable, free licence to use the EA only to send your own trading data to the Journal. Do not reverse engineer, modify, or redistribute it, except where the law allows. We distribute the EA (.ex5 file) directly from journal.eightforex.com; it is not offered on the MQL5 Market. Download it only from us. You can revoke your connection key in Settings.
Uploaded CSV or HTML statements are deleted after processing. The Journal is not an official record; check results against your broker's statements.
7. Acceptable use
You must not:
- use the Services unlawfully or upload unlawful or infringing content;
- upload fake or manipulated trade data, or data of accounts you are not authorised to use;
- access other users' accounts or data, or try to bypass security or rate limits;
- disrupt or scrape the Services, or introduce malware; or
- resell the Services or impersonate anyone.
8. Public profiles
Your journal is private by default. If you switch on a public profile or share link, you choose what is shown and are responsible for it. Account numbers, broker logins, and your email are never shown; balances are hidden unless you choose to show them.
You must not use a public profile, or anything from the Services, to sell or promote trading signals, offer account management or investment schemes, promote brokers, or solicit funds from others. We may remove profiles that break these rules. Public profiles show unaudited past results only and are not advice.
9. Your data and our intellectual property
You keep all rights to your data. You allow us to process it only to provide the Services, display what you make public, and create aggregated or de-identified statistics, as described in our Privacy Policy.
The Services, the EA, our content, and the Eight Forex names belong to us or our licensors. We may use your feedback freely.
10. Third-party services
We are not responsible for third-party products such as MetaTrader 5 or your broker, and we are not affiliated with MetaQuotes Ltd. or any broker.
11. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services and the EA are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that statistics will be accurate. If we discontinue the Journal, we will try to give 30 days' notice so you can export your data.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for trading losses, lost profits, decisions you make based on the Services or another user's public profile, or any indirect or consequential damages. Our total liability for all claims is limited to the total fees you paid us for the Services in the 12 months before the claim. The Services are currently free of charge.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, or your mandatory rights as a consumer or under data protection law.
To the extent permitted by law, you will cover our reasonable losses caused by your breach of these Terms.
13. Termination
You may stop using the Services and delete your account at any time in Settings or by emailing legal@eightforex.com. We may suspend or end your access, revoke EA keys, or remove content if you breach these Terms, if the law requires it, or if your use creates a security or legal risk. After termination, uninstall the EA; we will delete your data as described in our Privacy Policy. Sections 3, 4, 9, 11, 12, and 15 survive termination.
14. Changes to these Terms
For material changes, we will notify Journal users by email or in the Journal at least 14 days in advance. If you keep using the Services after that, you accept the new Terms.
15. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Indonesia. Please send any complaint to legal@eightforex.com first; we will try to resolve any dispute in good faith within 30 days. If it is not resolved, it will be settled by the South Jakarta District Court (Pengadilan Negeri Jakarta Selatan). This does not affect any mandatory consumer or data protection rights you have in your country.
16. General
Language. These documents are provided in English and in Bahasa Indonesia. If there is any inconsistency, the English version prevails.
These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and the Risk Disclaimer are the entire agreement between us. If any part is invalid, the rest remains in effect. We may transfer these Terms in a business transfer, with notice to you. Electronic acceptance is binding.
