The privacy policy, the portal's terms of use and the trading risk warning, all in one place.
Your data is processed by the Uspon Elite trading community (hereinafter: we). For any question about your data, write to podrska@usponelite.com or contact us through support on the portal.
The portal's main database is hosted by Supabase, on servers in Frankfurt, Germany (EU). Some service providers also process data outside the European Economic Area; which ones and how the transfer is protected is set out in section 6.
First name, last name, email, phone, language, time zone and password. The password is never stored as plain text, only as a cryptographic hash.
Purpose: access to the portal and the academy. Legal basis: performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
Access is tied to your account with the partner broker Blackwell Global. Through our partner (IB) access we regularly read: the email and name on the account, the trading account number, currency, balance and equity, deposit dates and amounts, lots traded per period and which partner (sponsor) you are under.
Purpose: checking and maintaining the access requirements (account balance and 0.5 lots in 30 days) and connecting you with your sponsor for live support and automations. Legal basis: performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
Login time and IP address. We count failed attempts to slow down automated attacks.
Purpose: account security and preventing abuse. Legal basis: legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)).
Which lessons you have watched and your reactions to announcements.
Purpose: showing your progress. Legal basis: performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
When you connect Telegram: your Telegram ID, username and display name, and your membership status in the groups. The bot uses this to check whether you are entitled to join the groups.
Purpose: access to the groups and preventing unauthorised entry. Legal basis: performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) and, for preventing abuse, legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)).
The messages you send to the support bot and its answers.
Purpose: answering questions and improving support. Legal basis: performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
Account number, server, investor password (stored encrypted, read-only) and trade history, along with an automatic analysis of your trading. Our team may see that analysis in order to contact you and help.
Purpose: statistics and feedback in the journal. Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a)), which you withdraw by disconnecting the journal.
Sessions may be recorded for education and later viewing. Participants do not send audio or video. If you write in the session chat, your message and display name may be visible to others and remain in the recording.
Purpose: session recordings for members. Legal basis: performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)).
We do not use cookies for advertising or analytics, and there is no tracking and no ad networks. We only store:
All of this is necessary for the portal to work, so we do not ask for consent for it.
We check the access requirements automatically: we compare the broker data with the requirements (account balance, 0.5 lots in 30 days). When the requirements are met, access is granted or extended automatically. If the automated check reports that a requirement is not met, a person from the team reviews that decision at your request. You can always contact us, ask for a review, correct inaccurate data or explain the circumstances.
We have data processing agreements (Art. 28 GDPR) with the providers that process data on our behalf. We do not sell data.
Transfers outside the EEA: when data goes to a provider outside the European Economic Area, we use the safeguards in Chapter V of the GDPR, for example the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.
Under the GDPR you have the right to:
For any of this, write to podrska@usponelite.com. Deleting your portal account does not delete your account with the broker; for that, contact the broker.
You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the EU member state where you live or work or where the infringement took place. In Croatia this is the Personal Data Protection Agency (Agencija za zaštitu osobnih podataka, azop.hr).
We store data in a protected database where each member sees only their own. Passwords are protected by hashing and investor passwords by encryption, and only the few people on the team who need it for their work have access.
We may change this policy, and we will let you know about important changes on the portal or by email.

The portal is run by the Uspon Elite trading community (hereinafter: Uspon Elite, we). "We" includes all natural persons who run the community or work with it: the founder, team members, traders, partners and sub-IB partners.
These terms apply to the portal and everything that comes with it: the academy, live sessions, Telegram groups, trade ideas, automations, the calculator, the economic calendar, the trading journal, the support bot and support (together: the portal). When you activate access or use the portal, you accept these terms, the Privacy policy and the Risk warning. If you do not agree with them, do not use the portal.
You may use the portal only if:
The fact that the portal is available does not mean that the broker or a particular financial product is lawfully available in your country. You check that yourself.
The portal is an educational and informational service. Depending on the period, it may include videos and courses, live sessions, trade ideas and market commentary, access to private Telegram groups, third-party automations, tools (calculator, calendar, journal) and other community features. We may add, change, replace or discontinue features.
Uspon Elite operates as a partner of the broker (Introducing Broker, IB). We and the people in our IB network (sub-IB partners) receive a fee from the broker linked to the trading of the members we referred. This fee may depend on volume, so higher trading volume by members means a higher fee for us.
This is a potential conflict of interest, and you should keep it in mind when you assess trade ideas, education, market commentary and information about the broker. The fee does not change the fact that you make all trading decisions yourself. Never trade just so that someone on our side earns a commission.
Blackwell Global is an independent broker. Your trading account and your relationship with the broker are governed by its terms, documents and risk warnings, which you should read before opening an account and depositing.
We:
Deposits with the broker are not payments to us. Spreads, commissions, swaps and other broker costs follow the broker's terms. For your account, deposits, withdrawals and execution, you contact the broker.
Everything on the portal and in the groups is for education and information only: lessons, trade ideas, live sessions, analyses, tools, AI feedback in the journal and support bot answers. None of it is investment advice, a personal recommendation, portfolio management or an invitation to buy or sell financial instruments.
We do not assess your financial situation, goals, experience or risk tolerance. When someone from the team answers a general question in a live session or in a group, that is not personal advice. Uspon Elite is not an investment firm or a licensed financial adviser. If you are not sure whether trading is right for you, consult a licensed independent adviser.
Trading CFDs, forex and gold with leverage carries a high risk and you can lose part or all of the amount invested. The details are in the Risk warning, which forms part of these terms.
We do not guarantee that you will be profitable, that you will achieve a particular return, monthly profit or win rate, that trade ideas or automations will be in profit, or that you will avoid losses. Past results, win rates and examples, whether ours, the traders' or members', do not guarantee future results.
You alone decide whether to open, close or change a trade, with what lot size, leverage and risk, whether to move the SL or TP, follow or ignore a trade idea, connect to an automation or stop it, how much to deposit and whether to keep trading at all. You alone are responsible for these decisions and their consequences. Do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
Trade ideas may contain the instrument, direction (buy or sell), entry zone, SL, TP and market commentary. They:
Prices at your broker may differ from those in the message, and an SL does not guarantee closing at exactly that price. The fact that an idea is still visible in the group does not mean it is still valid. The people who write the ideas may themselves trade the same instruments.
The calculator, the economic calendar, the trading journal, group win rates and AI feedback work on the basis of programmed rules and third-party data. They may be inaccurate, incomplete, delayed or temporarily unavailable, and must not be the only basis for a trading decision.
Your account is personal. You must:
You are responsible for what happens through your account if it happened because you did not keep your login details safe.
Trade ideas and the community partly run on Telegram. Access to the groups goes through our bot, which checks whether you are a member with active access. You may not share join links or in any way help someone who is not a member get into the groups. Telegram is an independent service with its own terms. When your access to the portal ends, your access to the groups ends too.
Live sessions are for education and market analysis. What is said in them is not personal advice, even when the host answers your question. Sessions may be recorded and the recordings may be available to members, and your chat messages and name may be visible to others and remain in the recording. Recording, rebroadcasting, streaming, selling or publishing sessions without our written permission is strictly forbidden.
It is strictly forbidden to forward trade ideas, recordings or content from the groups and live sessions, or to share lessons, videos, materials and links from the academy with anyone who is not a member of the Uspon Elite community.
You also may not use the portal to:
If you breach this section, you lose access immediately and without warning, and we may claim compensation from you for the resulting damage.
Videos, lessons, texts, trade ideas, graphics, tools, the portal design and the logo are the property of Uspon Elite or its partners. While you meet the requirements, you receive a limited, personal, non-exclusive and revocable right to use them for your own learning. This right does not include copying, reproducing, sharing, selling or publicly displaying them. Nothing in these terms transfers ownership to you.
When you connect the trading journal, we use your investor password (read-only; it cannot be used to trade or withdraw money) solely to import your trade history. We store the password encrypted, and you can disconnect the journal whenever you want. Your trades are analysed automatically, and our team may see that analysis in order to contact you and help. More in the Privacy policy.
We do our best to keep the portal running reliably, but we cannot guarantee operation without interruptions or errors. Access may be temporarily unavailable because of maintenance, faults, internet outages, security incidents, problems at third parties or market data. We may change portal features for technical, security, legal or business reasons.
We may restrict, temporarily suspend or terminate access if:
You can end your membership at any time. Deleting your portal account does not close your account with the broker.
The portal relies on third-party services: the broker, Telegram, Zoom, Vimeo, email services, market data, charts and AI. They operate independently of us, under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control them and do not guarantee that they will always be available or accurate.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Uspon Elite and all persons listed in section 1 (the founder, team members, traders, partners and sub-IB partners), including personally as natural persons, are not liable for any damage arising from or in connection with the use of the portal, groups, live sessions, automations or tools. This includes in particular:
If liability is nevertheless established, it is limited in total to the amount you paid directly to Uspon Elite in the 12 months before the damage occurred. This limitation does not apply where the law expressly does not permit it, for example for damage caused intentionally or through gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, and in other cases where liability cannot be excluded by law.
By accepting these terms, to the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive all claims against Uspon Elite and the persons listed in section 1 in connection with trading losses and automation losses, including claims against them personally as natural persons. You confirm that we have warned you about the risk in several places: in these terms, in the Risk warning, during activation, next to the automations and next to the results.
If you breach these terms (for example by forwarding trade ideas or sharing education outside the community), or if someone brings a claim against us because of your breach, we are entitled to claim compensation for the resulting damage and costs.
If you use the portal as a consumer, these terms do not affect the rights the law gives you that cannot be excluded.
We may change these terms when this is justified by changes to the portal, the law, security, third-party services or our operations. We will notify you of important changes in advance on the portal or by email. Where the law requires your consent, we will ask for it.
These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of Croatia. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection given to you by the mandatory rules of the country where you live. We first try to resolve disputes by agreement, so get in touch with us through support.
If any provision turns out to be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in force and the statutory rules apply in its place.
Send questions about these terms and about access through support on the portal or to podrska@usponelite.com.

Everything you get through the portal is for learning, information and general market analysis: lessons, videos, live sessions, trade ideas, commentary, tools, automations and AI feedback. We do not give personal investment advice, portfolio management or account management, nor tax, legal or accounting advice. None of it is tailored to your financial situation, goals, experience or risk tolerance.
Lessons and examples help you understand the market, analysis and tools. They may refer to real instruments, past market situations, possible scenarios or hypothetical trades. Something being educational does not mean it is free of risk or suitable for you in particular. Education does not replace your own judgement.
Trade ideas and commentary may contain the instrument, direction, entry zone, SL, TP, technical levels and possible scenarios. They are not tailored to you and do not take your financial situation into account.
Before publishing general content, we do not assess whether a trade or strategy is suitable for you. When a host in a live session, a Telegram group or support answers a general question, no advisory relationship is created. Using the portal does not create a portfolio management relationship or a fiduciary relationship either.
Uspon Elite and its sub-IB partners receive a fee from the broker linked to members' trading, and this fee grows with volume. This is a potential conflict of interest that you should keep in mind with every trade idea, commentary and piece of information about the broker. Never open, increase or repeat a trade so that someone earns a commission, or just to meet the volume requirement for access.
The people who prepare education, analyses and trade ideas may themselves trade or hold open positions in the instruments they write about. Assess the content yourself, regardless of whether the author has a position.
We prepare content carefully, but market information goes out of date quickly. It may contain errors, omissions or delays and rely on third-party data. We do not guarantee that any information, idea, price or level is complete, current and error-free.
You are responsible for your trading account and every decision: whether to open or close a trade, change a position, SL, TP, size or leverage, follow or ignore an idea, use a tool or automation, and whether to trade at all. Do not trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
Trading financial instruments carries a high risk and can lead to the loss of part or all of the capital invested. CFDs and other leveraged products are complex instruments and carry a particularly high risk of losing money quickly, because leverage magnifies the effect of every price move. Before trading, understand how the product works and assess whether you have enough knowledge, experience and money to bear the risk. Read your broker's terms and risk warnings before opening an account and depositing.
Leverage gives you greater exposure than the money you put into a position, so even a small price move can bring a disproportionately large gain or loss. A move against you quickly uses up the available margin, and the broker may then partly or fully close your positions. The margin and close-out rules are set by the broker and differ by instrument, account and market conditions.
Prices can move suddenly and sharply, especially around economic news, geopolitical events and in periods of low liquidity. The price can jump over a level (a gap) with no trading in between. In such conditions you may not be able to enter or exit a position at the price you expect.
The price in a trade idea, on a chart or in a live session may differ from the price you get at the broker. Execution is affected by market movement, slippage, spread changes, liquidity, latency, order size, the broker's execution, gaps and your internet connection. An SL does not guarantee closing at exactly that price; in a fast market or on a gap, execution can be considerably worse.
The market can move right after an idea is published. By the time you see it, the price, the risk-reward ratio or the reason for the trade may already have changed. Telegram, the internet and technical systems can be delayed. Do not assume an idea is valid just because it is still visible in the group or on the portal.
The calculator, calendar, journal, win rates, automations and AI feedback work according to programmed rules, algorithms and data. They can give false signals, miss things, be delayed or be technically wrong. They cannot predict the market and must not be the only basis for entering or managing a trade.
An automation trades on your account without your approval for each trade. It can make a series of losses or lose the entire amount invested, and connection drops, delays and errors at the broker or the service provider are also possible. Automation results on the portal refer to the stated past period and do not guarantee future results.
Trading and the portal depend on technology and third-party services. Internet outages, server and broker downtime, delayed or inaccurate data, problems with Telegram, software and API errors, device failures and chart errors are all possible. You should always be able to access and manage your account without the portal.
Past results do not guarantee future results. Past profits, trades, win rates, statistics, examples, members' experiences and account results are not a promise or forecast that you will achieve anything similar. Market conditions change, and a strategy that worked in one period may bring losses in another.
Hypothetical, simulated and backtested results have significant limitations. Unless expressly stated otherwise, they do not represent real trading and do not take into account liquidity, slippage, spreads, commissions, latency, psychology and real-time decisions. We do not claim that any account will achieve such results.
We do not guarantee profit, a particular return, win rate, monthly income, financial independence, the achievement of any goal, the avoidance of losses, or that any strategy, trade idea or automation will remain profitable. Mentioning possible profits or past results is not a promise about your future.
Trading accounts are opened and run by the broker, not by us. Risks at the broker include execution problems, price differences, spread changes, technical outages, withdrawal processing, counterparty risk and regulatory risk. We do not control execution, prices, withdrawals, account administration or the broker's financial condition. You read the broker's documents and make the decision about an account with the broker yourself.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for a member's own decision to enter or manage a trade after viewing portal content. Education, a trade idea, a tool's output or an opinion about the market does not transfer responsibility for your account and your decisions to Uspon Elite.
Market opinions, analyses, trade ideas and explanations may change without notice when new information arrives. We have no obligation to correct or withdraw earlier commentary just because later events have made it outdated. Always check current market conditions before making a decision.
If you are unsure about the risks or whether trading is right for you, seek advice from a licensed independent financial adviser who can assess your situation.
This warning is to be read together with the Terms of use and the Privacy policy. Statutory obligations and protections that cannot be excluded remain in force.
Send questions about this warning through support on the portal or to podrska@usponelite.com.
