3.1 Nature of the Service
MacroCade is an informational and educational platform that leverages artificial intelligence to generate speculative scenario analyses. The Service examines geopolitical events, macroeconomic trends, and global developments, and produces analytical content regarding their potential cascading effects on financial markets, sectors, and asset classes.
The Service is designed to serve as an informational and educational research tool for users who wish to understand the potential implications of global events. It is not designed, intended, or licensed to function as a financial advisory service.
3.2 AI-Generated Content
All analyses, reports, scenario maps, scenario narratives, and related outputs provided through the Service (collectively, "AI-Generated Content") are produced by artificial intelligence systems, including large language models and related technologies. AI-Generated Content is inherently speculative, probabilistic, and subject to the limitations of the underlying models and training data.
3.3 Informational Purpose Only
The Service and all content provided therein are made available for informational and educational purposes only. Nothing on the Service constitutes or should be interpreted as financial, investment, trading, legal, tax, or professional advice of any kind.
4. Financial Disclaimer and Limitation of Advisory Role
4.1 No Financial Advice
MacroCade DOES NOT PROVIDE FINANCIAL, INVESTMENT, LEGAL, OR TAX ADVICE. ALL ANALYSES ARE AI-GENERATED SPECULATIVE SCENARIOS FOR INFORMATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. USERS SHOULD CONSULT QUALIFIED FINANCIAL ADVISORS BEFORE MAKING ANY INVESTMENT DECISIONS.
4.2 No Registration as Financial Advisor
PK - Project Key Solutions S.r.l. is not registered as an investment advisor, broker-dealer, financial planner, portfolio manager, commodity trading advisor, or any other type of regulated financial intermediary in Italy, the European Union, the United States, or any other jurisdiction worldwide.

4.3 Speculative Nature of AI Analyses
All scenario analyses generated by MacroCade are speculative in nature. They represent possible interpretations of complex geopolitical and macroeconomic data and do not constitute predictions, forecasts, or guarantees of any future market outcomes. AI systems can and do produce inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading outputs. Users must not rely on AI-Generated Content as a sole or primary basis for any financial decision.
4.4 User Responsibility
Any financial decision made by a user, in whole or in part, on the basis of content obtained from MacroCade is made entirely at that user's own risk and responsibility. MacroCade expressly disclaims all liability for any losses, damages, or negative consequences arising from such decisions.
