Contrat compte client
Ceci est un contrat légal entre Ava Financial Ltd (BVI) et/ou Ava FX Ltd (BVI) ci-inclus sous le nom "Ava", ses successeurs ainsi que ses signataires, et la partie/parties ("le client") qui valident ledit document .
L'ouverture d'un compte chez Ava, à des fins spéculatives et/ou l'achat et/ou la vente de devises dans les marchés de devises étrangères internationaux hors cote (référé ici comme “OTC”), ainsi que d'autres services et produits que seule Ava peut décider de vous offrir par moments dans le temps à venir. Le client reconnait que c'est ce en quoi il s'engage et comprend les facteurs suivants, concernant le trading en OTC, en sus de ceux inclus dans la close de divulgation des risques qui lui a été procurée.
1. OTC est tradé sur un marché non-réglementé. Il n'y a aucunes garanties en ce qui concerne la louabilité de la contre-partie de la position de votre devise. De même que dans certains cas il peut y avoir des diminutions du trading de liquidité, d'où la cessation du trading de certaines devises. On évite ainsi la liquidation d'une position adverse qui aurait comme résultat une perte finacière substantielle.
2. Trader en OTC n'est valable que pour des institutions hautement perfectionnées ou des participants avisés capables financièrement de supporter des pertes qui peuvent équivaloir aux marges ou aux dépôts. C'est pouquoi les comptes "hors cote" (OTC) ne sont pas disponibles aux opérateurs inexpérimentés.
3. Ava ne se base que sur le jugement de son personnel pour faire des recommandations sur le marché. Celles-ci peuvent être compatibles, ou pas, avec la position du marché, les intentions de Ava, de ses filiales, et/ou de ses employés. Bien que les recommendations de Ava reposent sur des informations considérées comme fiables, Ava ne garantit pas leur entière exactitude. Elle ne prétend pas non plus que l'application des recommandations en question, élimine tous risques encourus dans l'échange de devises. Tout conseil de spéculation émis par Ava ne constitue absolument pas une offre d'achat ou de vente d'une transaction OTC quelqu'elle soit. Il est entendu que le client accepte le fait que lui seul est en mesure d'évaluer les valeurs ou les risques de tout trade avec Ava et en prend l'entière responsabilité.
4. Notre clientèle doit savoir que Ava ne peut permetttre aux représentants de leurs clients ni d'agir comme bon leur semble, ni de gérer un compte OTC. Si des opérations sont exécutées sur le compte d'un client sans son autorisation, ce dernier doit en avertir immédiatement Ava.
5. Suivant leurs règles de marges, Ava ainsi que les chambres de compensation où sont exécutées les transactions, peuvent exiger le versement de fonds supplémentaires afin que la marge soit adaptée au compte du client. Ce dernier se trouvera dans l'obligation de s'exécuter immédiatement. L'inobservation de cette règle peut conduire à la liquidation de toutes les positions ouvertes, qui résulterait en une perte. Au quel cas, Ava se réserve le droit de ne pas accepter d'ordres.
6. Le client doit savoir que tous les comptes confiés à Ava sont traités sans aucuns discernements, mais bien de la même manière.
7. Notre clientèle comprendra l'absolue nécessité de revoir les rapports concernant le trading du client envoyé via internet par Ava. Conformément à l'accord du client, tous les rapports d'exécutions seront estimés comme définitifs, à moins que ce dernier ne s'y oppose dans les deux jours ouvrables qui suivent son envoi. Tous relevés de compte seront jugés irrévocables à moins que le client ne s'y oppose dans les 48 heures ouvrables qui suivent l'envoi. Une opposition peut se faire via email ou par téléphone à condition d'être ensuite confirmée par écrit.
8. Le client doit savoir que Ava peut établir des règles d'approvisionement des comptes clients, qu'elle modifie de temps en temps. Celles-ci peuvent aussi bien porter sur les comptes de taille minimale, que sur la période de temps d'investissement, sur les commissions et les frais, la taille d'effet de levier par instrument, les mark ups, ainsi que sur l'ordre stop ou l'ordre à cours limité, les reconductions et les appels de marge, et enfin tout ce qui concerne les arrangements financiés.
9. Le client déclare avoir lu et pris connaissance de ses droits et de ses obligations insérés dans le Contrat Compte Client ci-dessus ainsi que dans l'Accord avec le client ci-après. La personne concernée accepte que les deux documents mentionés gèrent les relations entre Ava et ses clients. De même que le client consent être pleinement responsable de prises de décisions irrévocables ainsi que des transactions effectuées pour son compte. Ayant pris en considération les facteurs susdits et en vue des ressources financières présentes et à venir, le client désire et peut assumer les risques financiers considérables du trading OTC (hors cote).

11. RESPONSABILITES DE AVA
Ava will not be responsible for delays in the transmission of orders due to a breakdown or failure of transmission or communication facilities, electrical power outage or for any other cause beyond Ava’s control or anticipation. In addition, orders must be places allowing sufficient time to execute and to calculate necessary margin requirements. Ava does not warrant that Ava's trading platform or any services provided will be available without interruption or will be error free and such trading platform and services are being provided "AS IS" without any representation or warranty of any kind whatsoever except as otherwise set forth herein. Ava shall not be liable for losses arising from the default of any agent or any other party used by Ava under this agreement. Ava will not be liable for any losses or damages suffered or incurred by Customer relating to or as a result of Customer's use of Ava's trading platform or services. Under no circumstances shall Ava be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, or consequential damages that result from the use of, or inability to use, Ava's trading platform or services including but not limited to lost profits, loss of business, trading loss, loss of data or use of data, any unauthorized access to, alteration, theft or destruction of Customer's computers, computer systems, data files, programs or information, or costs of procurement of substitue goods or services, or for any direct or indirect, special or consequential damages however caused and under any theory of liability and whether or not Ava has been advised of the possibility of such damage. Customer agrees that the terms in this Section 11 represent a reasonable allocation of risk, that this section is an essential element of this Agreement and that in its absence; the economic terms of this Agreement would be substantially different. This limitation applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if Ava has been advised of the possibility of such damage. Ava has no liability or duty of indemnification related to unusable data, lost or corrupt Customer transactions or data, by whatever means, in whatever form. This limitation of liability additionally eliminates any duty or liability on the part of Ava related to unusable date, lost or corrupt Customer transactions or data, resulting in part or in whole from third-party software or networking goods or services or from internet related problems or from actions or events outside of Ava's control. Ava disclaims any and all liability resulting from or related to any breach of Internet security or disruption, distortions or delays of Customer's connections to the internet, due to any reason. As OTC is not an exchange traded market, prices at which Ava deals at or quotes may or may not be similar to prices at which other OTC market makers deal at or quote. Should a quoting or execution error occur, which may include, but are not limited to, a mistype of a quote, a quote that is not representative of fair market prices, an erroneous price quote from a dealer or erroneous price quote due to failure of hardware, software or communication lines or systems or inaccurate external data feeds provided by third-party vendors, Ava will not be liable for the resulting errors in account balances. Internet, connectivity delays, and price feed errors sometimes create a situation where the prices displayed do not accurately reflect market rates. The concept of arbitrage and "scalping", or taking advantage of these Internet delays, cannot exist in an OTC market where the client is buying or selling directly from the market maker. Ava does not permit the practice of arbitrage on Ava's platform. Ava strictly forbids any form of manipulation of its prices, execution, and platform. Ava reserves the right to investigate and review any account Ava suspects of manipulation and withhold funds suspected of being derived from such activity. The foregoing list is not meant to be exhaustive and in the event of a quoting or execution error, arbitrage strategy or manipulation, Ava reserves the right to make the necessary corrections or adjustments on the account involved. Any dispute arising from such quoting or execution errors or prohibited activities will be resolved by Ava in its sole and absolute discretion.
12. RISQUES DE DE LA DEVISERISK
If Customer directs Ava to enter into any foreign currency exchange transaction: (a) any profit or loss arising as a result of a fluctuation in the exchange rate affecting such currency will be entirely for Customer’s account and risk; (b) all initial and subsequent deposits for margin purposes shall be made in U.S. dollars, in such amounts as Ava may in its sole discretion require; and (c) Ava is authorized to convert funds in Customer’s account for margin into and from such foreign currency at a rate of exchange determined by Ava in its sole discretion on the basis of the then prevailing money market rates.
13. RISK ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Customer acknowledges that investment in leveraged and non-leveraged transactions are speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and is appropriate only for persons who can assume risk of loss of their entire margin deposit. Customer understands that because of the low margin normally required in OTC trading, price changes in OTC may result in significant losses. Customer warrants that Customer is willing and able, financially and otherwise, to assume the risk of OTC trading, and in consideration of Ava’s carrying his/her account(s), Customer agrees not to hold Ava responsible for losses incurred through following its trading recommendations or suggestions or those of its employees, agents or representatives. Customer recognizes that guarantees of profit or freedom from loss are impossible of performance in OTC trading. Customer acknowledges that Customer has received no such guarantees from Ava or from any of its representatives or any introducing agent or other entity with whom Customer is conducting his/her Ava account and has not entered into this agreement in consideration of or in reliance upon any such guarantees or similar representations.

Customer acknowledges that Ava makes no representations concerning the tax implications or treatment of contracts; and, (b) Customer further acknowledges that should Customer grant trading authority or control over Customer’s account to a third party ("Trading Agent"), whether on a discretionary or non-discretionary basis, Ava shall in no way be responsible for reviewing Customer’s choice of such Trading Agent nor making any recommendations with respect thereto.

If Customer gives Trading Agent authority to exercise any of its rights over Customer’s account(s), Customer understands that Customer does so at Customer’s own risk.

In the event that Customer objects to any such change or amendment, Customer agrees to liquidate Customer’s open positions and instruct Ava regarding the disposition of all assets in Customer’s account within ten (10) business days after notice of the amendment or change has been posted to the Website. No waiver or amendment of this Agreement may be implied from any course of dealing between the parties or from any failure by Ava or failure of Ava's agents to assert its rights under this Agreement on any occasion or series of occasions. No oral agreements or instructions to the contrary shall be recognized or enforceable. This instrument and the attachments hereto embody the entire agreement of the parties, superseding any and all prior written and oral agreements and there are no other terms, conditions or obligations other than those contained herein.
28. CUSTOMER HEREBY CONSENTS TO RECEIVE ACCOUNT STATEMENTS AND TRADE CONFIRMATIONS ONLINE. AVA WILL PROVIDE CUSTOMER WITH PASSWORD-PROTECTED ACCESS TO ONLINE REPORTS. CUSTOMER WILL BE ABLE TO GENERATE DAILY, MONTHLY AND ANNUAL ACCOUNT STATEMENTS DETAILING TRANSACTION ACTIVITY, PROFIT AND LOSS STATEMENTS, OPEN POSITIONS, MARGIN BALANCES, ACCOUNT CREDITS AND DEBITS, ETC. HARD COPIES OF MONTHLY CUSTOMER STATEMENTS ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST ONLY AND MAY INCUR AN ADDITIONAL CHARGE. STATEMENTS ARE DEEMED RECEIVED WHEN MADE AVAILABLE TO CUSTOMER BY AVA, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER CUSTOMER ACTUALLY ACCESSED THE STATEMENT. CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALERTING AVA TO ANY CHANGE IN THEIR E-MAIL ADDRESS. THIS CONSENT SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL REVOKED BY CUSTOMER IN WRITING AND RECEIVED BY AVA ACCORDING TO SECTION 10 OF THIS CUSTOMER AGREEMENT.
29. LEGAL RESTRICTIONS
Without limiting the foregoing, Customer understands that laws regarding financial contracts vary throughout the world, and it is Customer's obligation alone to ensure that Customer fully complies with any law, regulation or directive, relevant to Customer's country of residency with regards to the use of the Web site. For avoidance of doubt, the ability to access to Ava's Web site does not necessarily mean that Ava's services, and/or Customer's activities through it, are legal under the laws, regulations or directives relevant to Customer's country of residency.
This Web site does not constitute, and may not be used for the purposes of, an offer or solicitation to anyone in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorized, or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation. Access to this Web site, and the offering of financial contracts via this site, may be restricted in certain jurisdictions, and, accordingly, users accessing this site are required to inform themselves of, and to observe, such restrictions.
30. DECLARATION
By acceptance of this Agreement, Customer hereby declares that the moneys invested in Customer's account with Ava do not originate from drug trafficking, abduction, or any other criminal activity.
31. TAX COLLECTION
Customer knows, understands and agrees that, in general, Ava does not collect tax for any authority in any form or manner.
Without limiting the foregoing, it is Customer's obligation alone to calculate and pay all taxes applicable to you in Customer's country of residence, or otherwise arising as a result of Customer's trading activity from the use of the Ava's services.
Without derogating from Customer's sole and entire responsibility to perform tax payments, Customer agrees that Ava may deduct tax, as may be required by the applicable law, but is not obligated to do so, from the results of the activity with Ava. Customer is aware that amounts that may be withdrawn by Customer from Customer's account are "gross amounts", from which the Ava may deduct such taxes, and that Customer shall have no claim towards Ava with regard to such deductions.
32. ACCOUNT PROCEDURES - IDENTIFICATION
Customer acknowledges that applicable laws require financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information identifying each person who opens an account and, accordingly, Customer has provided Ava with certain identifying information and documents. Customer confirms that Customer has provided true, accurate, current and complete information during the registration process, and that Customer has not impersonated any person or entity, or misrepresented any affiliation with another person, entity or association, used false headers or otherwise concealed Customer's identity from Ava for any purpose.
33. WITHDRAWAL AND DEPOSIT PROCEDURES
Customer further acknowledges and accepts Ava's procedures with respect to withdrawals and deposits to accounts as set forth below:
-
Withdrawal orders: The provision of documentation as may be required from time to time by AML regulations, credit card companies and Ava, is a prerequisite, prior to the execution of a withdrawal order.
-
Credit card deposits may be, according to credit card companies' regulations, returned to the same credit card when a withdrawal is performed. A withdrawal to a bank account where initial deposits have been performed by credit cards will be executed back to credit card or to the bank account at Ava's discretion. Withdrawals to bank account may take a longer time period, due to additional security procedures.
-
Credit Card Deposits Variance: When choosing an account base currency other than USD, Customer's credit card may be debited sums which due to exchange rates and credit card companies’ fees, may slightly vary from the initial sum that has been deposited by Customer in the account base currency. Customer hereby accepts that such variations may occur and hereby affirms that Customer shall not seek to object or charge this back.
-
When depositing by a Bank Transfer, as required by anti money-laundering regulations, Customer is required to use only one bank account, which is in Customer's country of residence and in Customer's name. An authentic SWIFT confirmation, showing the origin of the funds, must be sent to Ava. Failure to submit such SWIFT may result in the return of the deposited amount, hence preventing the deposit of such pending amounts to Customer's account. Any withdrawal of funds, from Customer's Ava account to a bank account, can only be refunded to the same bank account that the funds were originally received from.
-
Alternative payment methods (internet payment vendors; money transfer services; etc.): when depositing funds using a facility other than credit cards and/or banks, you agree to, and acknowledge being bound by, the regulations and rules of such service, including, but not limited to, fees and other restrictions. Ava, at its sole discretion, may execute withdrawals to a facility other than the facility used for the original deposit, in accordance with anti money-laundering regulations.
34. CUSTOMER HEREBY CERTIFIES, UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY, THAT (1) THE INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THE CUSTOMER APPLICATION IS CUSTOMER’S CORRECT AND (2) THE OWNERSHIP, OR BENEFICIARY, OF CUSTOMER’S ACCOUNT IS NOT SUBJECT TO BACKUP WITHHOLDING UNDER SECTION 3406(A)(1)(C) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.
35. CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC SIGNITURE
By electronically signing Ava's account agreement and related documents, Customer acknowledges receipt of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's required risk disclosures and other documents contained as part of Ava's electronic account package and Customer agrees to be bound by their terms and conditions. In addition, by signing Ava's account agreement and related documents, Customer is consenting to Ava maintaining and Customer receiving electronic records of Customer's trades and accounts.
36. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement together with the Customer Account Application embodies the entire agreement between Ava and the Customer, superseding any and all prior written and oral agreements.
CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING RECEIVED, READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE FOREGOING CUSTOMER ACCOUNT LETTER AND CUSTOMER AGREEMENT AND HEREBY AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS HEREOF.
