The Information published on our website constitutes neither a recommendation, nor an encouragement or an offer(i) to purchase, sell or hold investment instruments; (ii) to use a (financial) service; (iii) to conduct other transactions; or (iv) to conclude other legal transactions. They are used solely for information and promotional purposes. It cannot be excluded that the described investment instruments or services are unsuitable, inadequate or unavailable for you.

4. No advice

The Information published on our website does not serve as investment advice, nor does it in any way constitute legal, tax, economic, or other advice. The Information does not refer to specific investment objectives, the financial situation, or the particular needs of specific users of our website and is unsuitable as a basis for decision-making. Before you decide to take any specific action, you should seek advice from a specialized expert. By providing content on the website or by accessing it, the provider does not enter into any legal relationship with the user.

5. No guarantees

We take utmost care in compiling the content on our website. The contents on our website are constantly updated and checked for accuracy. However, we do not provide any warranty (neither express nor implied) and make no representation regarding the correctness, accuracy, up-todateness and completeness of the Information published on our website. In particular, we are in no way obliged to update outdated Information, to remove it from our website or to mark it accordingly. The Information contained on our website is subject to change without notice.

Furthermore, we assume no responsibility and give no guarantees that the functions on our website will not be interrupted or are error-free, that defects will be remedied or that the website and the servers from which the content can be accessed are free of viruses, malware or other harmful components or programs.

The past performance of an investment instrument is not necessarily indicative of its future performance. Investments in foreign currencies are also subject to exchange-rate fluctuations. Dividends in connection with an investment instrument may also vary. We do no guarantee (i) the increase or preservation of the value of the capital invested in investment instruments; and (ii) for the amount of future dividends.

All Information and data available through this website, including but not limited to financial market data, exchange-rate information, reports, research, and other financial information, are based on sources that are carefully selected and considered to be reliable. All available Information is provided to users on an “as is” basis without any representations or warranties, express or implied, as to quality, originality, infringement of intellectual property, or its suitability for a specific purpose. The Information provided also does not constitute a guarantee that specific services and/or specific products will be available.

 6. No liability

We do not assume any liability or guarantees for access to or use of our or third party websites or for the timeliness, accuracy or completeness of the Information provided on the websites. To the fullest extent permitted by law, PrimeStone Partners AG and its directors, employees or agents shall not be liable for any direct or indirect loss or damage, including consequential loss or damage and loss of profits, arising out of or in connection with the Information provided on our website or in connection, directly or indirectly, with the use of our website and the information contained therein or with the risks of the financial markets. To the extent permitted by law, this exclusion of liability also covers liability due to negligence and applies even if we inform about the possibility of such consequences or if such consequences were foreseeable. The exclusion of liability then also applies to any damage that is attributable to third parties having manipulated our website.

 7. No orders

The input fields/contact forms contained on our website are not available for placing or revoking orders (e.g., orders/cancellations to buy/sell investment instruments) or other authorizations to us. Orders/cancellations placed in this way will not be executed by us – even without corresponding feedback to the sender – and no effective contract will be concluded with us.

8. Potential conflicts of interest

We cannot exclude the possibility that we ourselves or our directors or employees have in the past invested, are currently investing or will in the future invest in investment instruments about which our website contains information. Furthermore, it cannot be excluded that we have in the past provided, are currently providing or will in the future provide services to the issuers of such investment instruments and that our employees or directors have acted, are acting or will act for the issuers of such investment instruments, for example, as directors. We therefore cannot exclude the possibility that we or our directors or employees may have an interest in the future price performance of investment instruments.

Downloading or printing elements of our website does not transfer any rights, in particular no rights relating to software and trademarks.

Any liability, in particular for any direct or indirect damage or consequences arising from the use of third-party content or third-party websites, is excluded.
