2.3. All data that you provide to us through the registration or order form, the Client Section, or otherwise must be complete, true, and up to date. You must immediately notify us of any change in your data or update the data in your Client Section.

obligated to verify the data.
2.4.

2.5. The fee for the Swift Funding Challenge varies according to the option selected and depends on the amount of the initial capital, the degree of the acceptable risk, the parameters that must be fulfilled so that the conditions of the Swift Funding Challenge and the subsequent Verification are met, and possibly other configurations. More detailed information on individual options and fees for those options are provided on our website here www.swiftfunding.io. The final fee will be determined based on the option you select when completing the form for ordering the Swift Funding Challenge. The Provider reserves the right to also provide the Services under individually agreed conditions. All individually agreed conditions shall be determined by the Provider at its own discretion. Individual discounts and other benefits may not be combined, unless expressly stipulated otherwise by the Provider.
2.6. The fee is paid for allowing you to access the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge, or the Services provided under the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge. The Customer is not entitled to a refund of the fee, for example, if the Customer cancels the Customer’s Client Section or requests the cancellation by e-mail, if the Customer terminates the use of the Services or the contract (for example, fails to complete the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge or the Verification), fails to meet the conditions of the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge or the Verification, or violates these GTC.
2.7. If the Customer lodges an unjustifiable complaint regarding the paid fee or disputes the paid fee with the Customer’s bank or payment service provider (e.g. through chargeback services, dispute services, or other similar services), on the basis of which an annulment, cancellation or refund of the fee or any part thereof is requested, the Provider is entitled, at its own discretion, to stop providing to the Customer any services and refuse any future provision of any services.
2.8. Your choice of the option of the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge that you select when making an order shall also apply to the subsequent Verification. You will start the subsequent Verification and, possibly, other products related thereto, with the parameters and the same currency that correspond to the option of the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge selected by you. Once you make a selection, it is not possible to change it.
If you are ordering a new SWIFT FUNDING Challenge, the restrictions specified in this clause 2.8 shall not apply.

2.10. Any data entered in the order form can be checked, corrected, and amended until the binding order of the Services. The order of the Services of your choice is made by submitting the order form. The Provider will immediately confirm the receipt of your order to your e-mail address. In the case of the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge, the order is completed upon the payment of the fee for the selected option (more on this in clause 3.4), whereby the contract between you and the Provider is executed, the subject of which is the provision of the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge and, if the conditions of the SWIFT FUNDING Challenge are met, the Verification. The contract is concluded in English. We archive the contract in electronic form and do not allow access to it.

The Provider does not warrant or guarantee that the Services will be compatible with any specific equipment or software. The Provider does not charge any additional fees for the internet connection.
2.12.

Before sending an order form, you are obligated to read those terms and conditions and privacy policies.
2.13. If the Customer places an unusually large number of orders for the Services within an unreasonably short period of time, the Provider may notify the Customer through the Client Section as a protective precaution to mitigate potentially harmful behaviour of the Customer. If such unreasonable behaviour continues after such notice, we reserve the
right to suspend any further orders of the Services by the Customer. If we identify that the unusual behaviour as per this paragraph relates to the Customer’s involvement in Forbidden Trading Practices, we may take respective actions as perceived in Section 5 of this GTC. The Provider reserves the right to determine, at its own discretion, the nature of the behaviour described above and reasonable boundaries for such determination.

Unless the Provider grants an exception to the Customer, the initial capital amounts may not be transferred between the individual products or mutually combined. You may also not transfer or combine your performance, Service parameters, data, or any other information between the products.
4.3. Access to the Client Section and Trading Platform is protected by login data, which the Customer may not make available or share with any third party.

The Provider will immediately confirm the receipt of the request to
the Customer by e-mail, whereby the contractual relationship between the Customer and the Provider will be terminated. In such a case, the Customer is not entitled to any refund of the fees already paid or costs otherwise incurred.
