Terms of Service

LeadersCartel is a publication of Power Brand Ca, a corporation incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, Canada.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between You and Power Brand Ca ("Power Brand Ca," "we," "us," "our") governing Your access to and use of the LeadersCartel platform at leaderscartel.com and related services (the "Service").

These Terms are drafted in compliance with applicable law of the Province of British Columbia, including:

2.2 In accordance with the Electronic Transactions Act, Your electronic acceptance of these Terms — including by clicking an "I agree" button, creating an account, commencing a free trial, or continuing to use the Service after notice of these Terms — has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature.
2.3 If You do not agree to these Terms, You must not access or use the Service.
2.4 If You are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, You represent that You have authority to bind that entity to these Terms, in which case "You" includes that entity.

3. The Service

3.1 The Service is a geopolitical intelligence platform that ingests, classifies, and synthesizes publicly available information from hundreds of global sources. The Service applies Power Brand Ca's proprietary analytical system (the "RAVEN" intelligence engine) to surface signals, produce influence rankings, and generate editorial briefings.
3.2 The Service is provided for informational purposes only. Content made available through the Service is editorial and analytical in nature. See Section 12 for express disclaimers respecting investment, legal, tax, and professional advice.
3.3 The Service is continuously developed. Features may be added, modified, deprecated, or removed from time to time. Power Brand Ca may, in its sole discretion, notify paid Subscribers of material feature changes.

4. Accounts and Registration

4.1 Certain features of the Service require an account. You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and keep it current thereafter.
4.2 You are responsible for:
4.3 Account credentials are personal to the registered User and may not be shared with, transferred to, or used by any other individual. Each Subscription is a single-User licence.
4.4 You must be at least sixteen (16) years of age to register for an account. See the Privacy Policy for further detail on our treatment of minors.

5. Subscription Plans and Pricing

5.1 Power Brand Ca offers the following Subscription plans:
5.2 Current plan features are described at leaderscartel.com. Plan features may be modified from time to time; material changes that reduce the feature set available to a paid Subscriber shall be subject to Section 18 (Amendments).
5.3 Prices are stated in United States dollars (USD) and are exclusive of applicable taxes (including GST, PST, HST, VAT, sales tax, or comparable taxes). Tax, where applicable, is calculated at checkout based on Your billing address.
5.4 Power Brand Ca may change Subscription prices from time to time. Any price change affecting an existing Subscriber shall take effect at the Subscriber's next billing renewal. Power Brand Ca shall endeavour to notify affected Subscribers by email at least thirty (30) calendar days before the effective date; shorter notice periods may apply where required by law or by circumstances beyond Power Brand Ca's reasonable control. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the new price. You may cancel Your Subscription before the effective date in accordance with Section 8.

6. Billing and Auto-Renewal

6.1 Subscriptions are billed in advance. By subscribing, You authorize Power Brand Ca (through its payment processor, Stripe, Inc.) to charge Your designated payment method for the Subscription fee on each billing date.
6.2 Auto-renewal. Monthly Subscriptions renew automatically each calendar month on the same date, and annual Subscriptions renew automatically on the anniversary of Your initial paid charge, at the then-current published price, unless cancelled in accordance with Section 8 before the renewal date.
6.3 Renewal notices. Power Brand Ca endeavours to send email renewal reminders to annual Subscribers approximately thirty (30) calendar days before each annual renewal date. A missed, delayed, or undelivered reminder does not invalidate the renewal, and it remains Your responsibility to manage Your Subscription in accordance with Section 8. Monthly Subscribers receive billing confirmation with each monthly charge.
6.4 Failed payments. If a payment fails, Power Brand Ca shall retry the payment method up to three (3) times over seven (7) calendar days. If payment is not completed, access to paid features shall be suspended until a successful payment is received. Reactivation of a suspended account requires a successful charge.

7. Free Trials

7.1 Power Brand Ca may offer a free trial of the Service. Unless otherwise stated at sign-up, the free trial is three (3) calendar days from the time of registration, and a valid payment method is required at sign-up.
7.2 If You do not cancel the trial before 23:59 UTC on the third day, Your payment method shall be charged the selected plan's applicable rate on Day 4, and Your Subscription shall commence automatically.
7.3 You may cancel Your free trial at any time before it ends through the Billing section of account Settings. Cancellation before the end of the trial avoids any charge.
7.4 Free trials are offered once per User and once per payment method. Power Brand Ca may, in its sole discretion, withhold a free trial where it believes an individual or payment method has previously received one.

8. Cancellation and Refunds

8.1 Cancellation. You may cancel Your Subscription at any time through the Billing section of account Settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of Your then-current billing period. You retain access to paid features until that date.
8.2 No refunds. Except where a refund is required by applicable law (including the BPCPA), all fees paid to Power Brand Ca are non-refundable. Power Brand Ca does not provide refunds or credits for:
8.3 Refunds required by law. Nothing in Section 8.2 limits any statutory right to cancellation or refund You may have under the BPCPA, including cancellation rights set out in Part 4 of the BPCPA where applicable. Where a statutory right applies, it prevails over these Terms to the extent of the inconsistency.
8.4 Billing errors. If You believe a charge has been made in error due to a Power Brand Ca system fault, contact [email protected] within fourteen (14) calendar days of the charge. Verified system-fault errors may, at Power Brand Ca's sole discretion, be refunded or credited.

9.2 Breach of Section 9.1 constitutes a material breach of these Terms and entitles Power Brand Ca, at its option, to suspend or terminate Your account in accordance with Section 17, without refund.

11.2 You grant Power Brand Ca a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence, for the term of Your Subscription and for a reasonable period thereafter, to use, reproduce, and incorporate User Content for the purpose of operating, improving, and supporting the Service.

12. No Professional Advice — Risk Disclosure

12.1 The Content is provided for informational and editorial purposes only. Nothing in the Service constitutes, or should be relied upon as:
12.2 Power Brand Ca is not a registered investment adviser in British Columbia, Canada, or any other jurisdiction. Power Brand Ca is not registered with the British Columbia Securities Commission, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the U.S. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, or any comparable authority, and does not offer advisory services requiring such registration.
12.3 Intelligence signals are probabilistic, not predictive. The Content reflects pattern analysis of publicly available information. Signals represent correlations, trends, and analytic synthesis; they do not guarantee future events, market movements, or outcomes. Past performance of any described event, entity, or trend is not indicative of future results.
12.4 Financial, geopolitical, and market decisions carry substantial risk, including the risk of total loss. Trading and investment activity is speculative. You may lose some or all of any capital at risk. No Content on the Service should be construed as a safe, guaranteed, or endorsed trade, position, or decision.
12.5 Consult a licensed professional before acting. Before making any investment, trading, legal, tax, or other material decision based on Content, You must consult a licensed professional qualified in Your jurisdiction and appropriate to the decision being made. Your decision to rely on Content without consulting such a professional is made at Your sole risk.
12.6 You are solely responsible for any decision You make or action You take based on Content. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Power Brand Ca disclaims liability for such decisions and actions.

14. Warranties and Disclaimers

14.1 Except as expressly provided in these Terms, and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Service and all Content are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including without limitation implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, reliability, or continuity of availability.
14.2 Without limiting the foregoing, Power Brand Ca does not warrant that:
14.3 Statutory rights preserved. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any right, warranty, guarantee, or remedy conferred on You by applicable law (including the BPCPA and the Sale of Goods Act, RSBC 1996, c 410) that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified by contract. Where applicable law implies a warranty or condition that cannot be excluded, Power Brand Ca's liability for breach of that warranty or condition is limited to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

15. Limitation of Liability

15.1 To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Power Brand Ca and its directors, officers, employees, and agents shall not be liable for:

arising out of or in connection with the Service or these Terms, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), statute, or otherwise, and whether or not Power Brand Ca has been advised of the possibility of such loss.

15.2 Aggregate cap. Subject to Sections 15.3 and 15.4, Power Brand Ca's aggregate liability to You for all claims arising out of or in connection with the Service or these Terms, howsoever arising, shall not exceed the total amount actually paid by You to Power Brand Ca in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
15.3 Statutory carve-out. Nothing in Section 15.1 or 15.2 excludes, restricts, or limits:
15.4 Consumer-protection rights preserved. Where You are a Consumer under the BPCPA, nothing in these Terms limits or is intended to limit any right, remedy, or protection afforded to You under the BPCPA. To the extent of any inconsistency between these Terms and the BPCPA, the BPCPA prevails.

16. Indemnification

16.2 This Section 16 does not apply to the extent any such claim, loss, damage, or expense arises from Power Brand Ca's willful misconduct or gross negligence.

17.2 Termination or suspension by Power Brand Ca. Power Brand Ca may suspend or terminate Your account, with or without notice, where:
17.3 Effect of termination. On termination, Your right to access the Service ends. Except where termination results from Power Brand Ca's discontinuation of the Service under Section 17.2(d), no refund is payable. Sections that by their nature survive termination — including Sections 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19, and 20 — survive termination of these Terms.

18. Amendments to These Terms

18.1 Power Brand Ca may amend these Terms from time to time. Where an amendment is material — including changes to pricing, material changes to the Service, changes to liability provisions, or changes to dispute resolution — Power Brand Ca shall:
18.2 Where You do not accept a material amendment, You may terminate Your account before the amendment takes effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date of a material amendment constitutes acceptance of the amended Terms.

19. Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Dispute Resolution

19.1 These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or in connection with them or the Service, are governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
19.2 Any dispute arising under or in connection with these Terms is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia. Without limiting the foregoing:
19.3 No pre-dispute arbitration (BC Consumers). Consistent with amendments to the BPCPA enacted in 2025, where You are a Consumer under the BPCPA, these Terms do not require You to submit any dispute to mandatory pre-dispute arbitration. Nothing in these Terms prevents the parties from mutually agreeing to arbitration or another alternative dispute resolution process after a dispute has arisen.
19.4 No class-action waiver (BC Consumers). Where You are a Consumer resident in British Columbia, these Terms do not waive or restrict Your right to participate in a class proceeding, consistent with amendments to the BPCPA enacted in 2025.

20.3 No waiver. Power Brand Ca's failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.
