If you use a referral link or promotional code, Valarn or the referring party may receive credit, compensation, discounts, or other benefits.

Referral relationships may be tracked using cookies, pixels, URL parameters, referral codes, account identifiers, or similar technologies.

A partner offer does not mean Valarn recommends that product or service for your financial situation.

You are responsible for evaluating whether any third-party product or service is appropriate for you.

6. No Financial Advice or Investment Recommendation

Advertisements, sponsored content, affiliate links, partner offers, referral links, and promotional placements are not financial advice.

They are not:

• investment advice;
• personalized recommendations;
• trade recommendations;
• broker recommendations;
• legal advice;
• tax advice;
• accounting advice;
• financial planning advice;
• guarantees of performance;
• endorsements of any security;
• recommendations to buy, sell, hold, short, or trade any security.

You should independently evaluate all third-party products, services, offers, and claims before acting.

7. No Endorsement

The presence of an advertisement, sponsored placement, affiliate link, referral link, or partner offer does not mean Valarn endorses, guarantees, verifies, or recommends the advertiser, sponsor, product, service, claim, investment strategy, company, security, broker, platform, or offer.

Valarn is not responsible for:

• third-party pricing;
• third-party claims;
• third-party products;

• third-party security;
• third-party privacy practices;
• third-party customer support;
• third-party refunds;
• third-party performance;
• third-party investment outcomes;
• third-party legal compliance.

Your relationship with any advertiser, affiliate, sponsor, or partner is solely between you and that third party.

8. Editorial Independence

Advertisers, sponsors, affiliates, and partners do not control Valarn’s AI-generated research outputs, research methodology, bull/bear/neutral classifications, scores, scenario analysis, risk analysis, educational conclusions, stock ratings, or research stances unless expressly disclosed.

Valarn may receive compensation from advertisers or partners, but sponsored compensation does not mean that an advertiser controls Valarn’s AI research results.

If a paid relationship affects placement, ranking, visibility, ordering, or display of content, Valarn will make reasonable efforts to disclose that relationship where required.

9. Sponsored Placement and Ranking

Some content, offers, tools, products, or partners may appear more prominently because of a paid relationship.

Paid placement may influence:

• where an offer appears;
• how often an offer appears;
• whether an offer is featured;
• display order;
• promotional banners;
• email inclusion;
• partner page placement;
• sponsored recommendation sections.

Paid placement does not mean the product is best for you, best overall, lowest cost, safest, highest performing, or suitable for your needs.

10. Conflicts of Interest

Valarn may have financial relationships that create potential conflicts of interest.

For example:

• Valarn may receive affiliate commissions from third-party tools;
• Valarn may receive sponsorship payments;
• Valarn may receive referral fees;
• Valarn may have advertisers in the financial technology or investment education space;
• Valarn may promote products from commercial partners;
• Valarn’s owners, employees, contractors, affiliates, sponsors, or partners may hold positions in securities discussed on the platform.

Users should consider possible conflicts when reviewing Valarn content, advertisements, sponsored placements, stock discovery pages, educational content, or research outputs.

11. Company and Stock-Related Advertisements

Valarn may display advertisements or sponsored content related to companies, sectors, financial products, financial platforms, data services, newsletters, or investment tools.

A company, stock, ETF, fund, broker, or investment product appearing in an advertisement does not mean Valarn recommends buying, selling, holding, shorting, or trading it.

Valarn may show advertisements near AI-generated stock research, but this does not mean the advertiser influenced the research unless expressly disclosed.

12. Advertiser Influence on Reports

Unless clearly disclosed, advertisers, sponsors, affiliates, and partners do not influence:

• AI-generated stock reports;
• bullish, bearish, or neutral stances;
• research scores;
• risk scores;
• sentiment scores;
• valuation scores;
• scenario targets;
• stock rankings;
• report conclusions;
• AI-generated summaries;
• thesis analysis;
• report methodology.

If Valarn ever creates sponsored research, sponsored articles, paid educational content, or advertiser-influenced content, it should be clearly labeled.

13. Sponsored Research or Paid Educational Content

Valarn may choose to publish sponsored research, sponsored educational content, paid articles, sponsored newsletters, or advertiser-supported content.

If content is sponsored or paid for by a third party, Valarn will make reasonable efforts to label it clearly.

Sponsored research or paid educational content should not be treated as independent investment research unless expressly stated.

Sponsored content may contain claims, viewpoints, or emphasis provided by the sponsor.

Users should independently verify all sponsored content.

14. Product Reviews and Comparisons

Valarn may publish reviews, comparisons, rankings, guides, or educational content about third-party products and services.

• AI tools;
• data platforms;
• newsletters;
• tax tools;
• accounting tools;
• portfolio trackers;
• market education products.

Valarn may receive compensation from companies included in reviews, comparisons, or rankings.

Compensation may affect whether a product is included, where it appears, or how prominently it is displayed.

Valarn does not guarantee that reviews, rankings, comparisons, or descriptions are complete, current, unbiased, or suitable for every user.

15. Third-Party Terms and Policies

You should review those terms before using or purchasing third-party products or services.

Advertisers and partners are responsible for their own claims, products, services, pricing, disclosures, and compliance.

You should independently verify any claim before relying on it.

22. Changes to Advertising Relationships

Valarn’s advertising, sponsorship, affiliate, and partner relationships may change over time.

We may add, remove, replace, pause, or modify advertisers, sponsors, affiliate partners, links, offers, rankings, or sponsored placements without notice.

Past inclusion of a partner or advertiser does not guarantee future inclusion.

23. Report and Research Disclaimer Still Applies

Advertising, affiliate, or sponsored relationships do not change Valarn’s core disclaimer:

Valarn provides AI-generated stock research for educational and informational purposes only. Valarn is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, fiduciary, or financial planner. Nothing on Valarn is financial advice or a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, short, or trade any security.
