5. Limitation of Liability
5.1 No Professional Advice
This site serves as a financial encyclopedia for education and general information purposes only. The site operator does NOT hold an investment advisory, investment marketing, or portfolio management license from the Israel Securities Authority (ISA), and does NOT hold a pension advisory license. The content on this site does NOT constitute investment advice as defined in the Regulation of Investment Advice, Investment Marketing and Portfolio Management Law, 5755-1995 (Israel), pension advice, tax advice, or a substitute for professional advice tailored to your individual circumstances.
In particular:
Calculators (mortgage, tax, compound interest, etc.) provide estimates only and do not constitute professional advice. Results are based on simplified assumptions and are illustrative in nature. Past returns do not indicate future returns.
Comparison tools (pension funds, study funds, bank accounts, ETFs, etc.) display publicly available information for educational purposes only. The information presented may not be current or complete.
News content is sourced from third-party RSS feeds (including Globes and Sponser) and displayed as received. The site is not responsible for the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of such content.
5.2 Content Accuracy
The Company makes no warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, or currency of any information on this site. The Company shall not be held responsible for any direct or indirect damage, loss, or expense arising from reliance on such information.
5.3 AI-Generated Content
Some content, images, illustrations, and visualizations on this site were created or edited with the assistance of artificial intelligence tools. Such materials may contain inaccuracies, errors, or outdated information. No guarantee is made regarding the accuracy, completeness, or currency of AI-assisted content. You bear sole responsibility for any reliance on such content and should always verify information with official and professional sources before making financial decisions.
5.4 Gamification Ranks and Titles
The site includes a rank, badge, and achievement system that assigns users titles such as "Analyst", "Investment Advisor", or "Portfolio Manager" based on the volume of content they have read. These titles are purely symbolic and are intended solely to encourage learning and engagement.
Ranks and titles awarded through the site do NOT constitute a license, certification, professional certificate, or any form of approval from Meidahon or any regulatory body. They are not evidence of professional competence and do not authorize the holder to provide investment advice, pension advice, tax advice, or any other professional financial service. Reading content on this site does not replace professional training, licensing examinations, or registration requirements as mandated by applicable law.
5.5 Liability Cap
In the event that liability is established despite the foregoing, the Company's cumulative liability shall not exceed the amount actually paid by the User to the Company in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or USD $100 (approximately NIS 375), whichever is higher.

10. Severability
If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be interpreted and enforced to the maximum extent possible so as to reflect the original intent of the parties.

The failure of the Company to enforce any right or provision of these terms in a particular instance shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision, or of any other right or provision, in that or any subsequent instance.
