Terms of use
In short: Qubo is an information and portfolio-tracking tool. It does not hold your funds, place any orders or give investment advice. You can cancel your subscription and delete your account at any time.
1. Purpose and acceptance
These terms govern access to and use of the asterio.app website, the Qubo dashboard and related services (together, the "Service"). They also serve as the terms of sale for paid plans.
By creating an account, you confirm that you have read and accept these terms, the privacy policy and the risk disclosure. If you use the Service without an account, these terms also apply to that use.
2. Operator
Qubo is a brand of ASSETO Ltd. The Service is published and operated by:
ASSETO Ltd, a company incorporated in Hong KongCompany number: 41397969
Registered office: Grand Millennium Plaza, 7/F, 181 Queen's Road Central, Hong Kong Island, Hong Kong
Contact: support@asterio.app
The website is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, United States). User accounts and data are hosted by Supabase, Inc. in a data centre located in the European Union (Ireland).
3. Description of the Service
Qubo lets you, among other things:
- follow the price and performance of major crypto assets;
- record your purchases and sales manually to calculate your portfolio value, average cost and realised or unrealised gains and losses;
- read news and social media posts linked to the assets concerned, with an indicative tone (bullish, neutral or bearish);
- depending on your plan, filter news by your positions, follow public addresses of large holders ("whales") and receive alerts.
Qubo does not hold, receive or transfer any funds or crypto assets. The Service places no orders and never asks for private keys. If you choose to connect an exchange account, only read-only API keys are accepted: keys that can trade, transfer or withdraw are rejected.
During the launch phase, some data (in particular news, social media posts, whale movements and currency conversion rates) may be simulated or indicative. Such data is labelled as such in the Service.
4. No investment advice
Information provided by Qubo is for information purposes only. It is not investment advice, a recommendation to buy or sell, or legal, tax or accounting advice. The tone assigned to news results from automated classification and does not predict price movements.
ASSETO Ltd is not a licensed crypto-asset service provider and provides no advisory, order reception and transmission, execution or custody services. You remain solely responsible for your investment decisions. Before making any decision, consult a licensed professional where appropriate and read the risk disclosure.
5. Your account
- The Service is reserved for people aged 18 or over with the legal capacity to enter into contracts.
- You agree to provide a valid email address and accurate information, and to keep it up to date.
- You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for all activity under your account. Notify us without delay at support@asterio.app of any unauthorised use.
- Accounts are personal. They may not be shared, transferred or resold.
- You can use part of the Service without an account. Your data then stays only in your browser, and Qubo cannot retrieve or restore it.
6. Plans, prices and payment
6.1 Plans
Qubo offers a free plan (Starter) and paid plans (currently Pulse, Edge and Apex). The content of each plan is described on the website at the time of subscription. During the launch phase, some paid plans may be available free of charge or on a trial basis. You will never be charged unless you have expressly subscribed to a paid plan.
6.2 Prices
Prices are shown on the website, per month or per year, and billed in US dollars, euros, pounds sterling or Hong Kong dollars depending on the currency selected. The yearly plan is billed at the price of 10 months for 12 months. Prices are shown excluding taxes. Where applicable, taxes such as the VAT or GST of your country of residence are added to the price and shown before payment. Amounts shown in a currency other than the billing currency are indicative.
6.3 Payment and renewal
Payments are processed by our payment provider, Airwallex. Qubo never has access to your full card numbers. Subscriptions are paid in advance and renew automatically at the end of each period (month or year) until cancelled. An invoice is made available for each payment.
6.4 Cancelling your subscription
You can cancel your subscription at any time from your profile or by writing to support@asterio.app. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period, until which you keep access to your plan. Periods already started are not refunded, unless required by law or where you exercise your right of withdrawal.
6.5 Plan and price changes
Plan changes take effect immediately. When you upgrade, the price difference for the current period is charged straight away, prorated. When you downgrade, the difference is credited pro rata and deducted from your next renewal. We will notify you of any price change at least 30 days before it applies. You may then cancel free of charge before the new price takes effect.
6.6 Failed payments
If a payment fails, we will let you know and may retry it. If the payment is not made, your account returns to the free plan. Your data is kept.
7. Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer resident in the European Union, the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have 14 days from subscribing to a paid plan to withdraw, without giving any reason.
To exercise this right, send us a clear statement at support@asterio.app, for example using the model form below. We will refund you no later than 14 days after receiving your request, using the same payment method you used to subscribe.
If you asked for the paid Service to start during the withdrawal period, you must pay an amount proportionate to the service provided until you informed us of your withdrawal.

8. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Service for unlawful purposes or in breach of the rights of others;
- extract, copy or reuse data from the Service automatically or in bulk (bots, scraping), except through an export feature we provide;
- bypass technical limits or restrictions tied to your plan, or attempt to access other users' data;
- disrupt, overload or attempt to compromise the security of the Service;
- decompile or reverse engineer the Service, except where permitted by law;

9. Third-party data and content
Prices, news, social media posts and public address data come from third-party sources (public market feeds, news publishers, social networks, blockchains). Qubo does not guarantee their accuracy, completeness or availability. They may be delayed, including depending on your plan, interrupted or incorrect. Links to third-party sites are provided for convenience. Qubo is not responsible for their content.
In the Markets section of the Terminal, prices and daily price history for US stocks, ETFs, indices, forex and commodities are provided by Twelve Data. They may be delayed. The US Dollar Index shown is calculated by Qubo from six exchange rates using the published index formula and may differ slightly from the official ICE index. Company and fund logos shown with these assets are also provided by Twelve Data and remain the property of their respective owners. Crypto correlations and comparisons shown on these asset pages are calculated by Qubo from daily closing prices.
GeoEnergy Vector uses the following public sources: IMF PortWatch (daily tanker transits through maritime chokepoints, International Monetary Fund), the GDELT Project (news articles), and FRED, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis (Brent and WTI prices, US gasoline and diesel prices, and US crude oil stocks published by the U.S. Energy Information Administration), NASA FIRMS (satellite thermal detections; we acknowledge the use of data and imagery from NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System, part of NASA's Earth Science Data and Information System), GIE AGSI+ (EU gas storage, Gas Infrastructure Europe), aisstream.io (live AIS ship positions from coastal receivers; coverage is partial away from the coast), the OFAC SDN list (US Treasury, vessels under US sanctions, matched to AIS by IMO or MMSI number; a match is indicative and is not legal advice), GDACS (Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System, European Commission and United Nations: active tropical cyclones), and FRED/EIA New York Harbor spot prices for the 3-2-1 crack spread. Oil, NGL and gas pipeline routes and LNG terminals come from Global Energy Monitor's Global Oil Infrastructure Tracker and Global Gas Infrastructure Tracker (CC BY 4.0), simplified by Qubo; low-precision routes are not shown. Sea routes are computed on Eurostat's MARNET maritime network with the open-source searoute library (Apache 2.0). Map data comes from Natural Earth (public domain). Oil routes and site locations shown on the globe are indicative. Live Brent, WTI and US natural gas prices, and the BWET (tanker freight) and BDRY (dry bulk freight) ETFs used in the score, come from Twelve Data. News headlines are sorted, grouped and summarised in one sentence by an AI model; a summary may contain errors, and the original article remains the reference. “AIS signal lost” and “ship-to-ship transfer” markers are detected automatically by Qubo from AIS positions: they are indicative leads, may be caused by coverage gaps or equipment faults, and do not mean that any ship or company has broken a law. The Vector Score is calculated by Qubo from these data and is not investment advice.

The data you enter (transactions, preferences) remains yours. You authorise us to host and process it only as needed to provide the Service to you.
11. Availability and changes
We do our best to keep the Service available at all times but cannot guarantee it. It may be interrupted for maintenance, updates or incidents at our providers. We may change features. If a change significantly reduces a paid plan you are subscribed to, we will tell you in advance and you may cancel free of charge.
12. Liability
Qubo is not liable for:
- the investment decisions you make, or any resulting gains or losses;
- errors, delays or interruptions in data from third parties;
- indirect losses such as loss of profit, opportunity or data beyond our control.
To the extent permitted by law, the total liability of ASSETO Ltd in connection with the Service is limited to the amount you paid in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.
These limitations do not apply in case of gross negligence, wilful misconduct, fraud or personal injury, or where the law prohibits them. They do not deprive consumers of the rights granted by the mandatory rules of their country of residence, including the statutory conformity guarantee for digital content and services.
13. Suspension and termination
You can delete your account at any time from your profile. Deletion is permanent: your profile, transactions and preferences are erased as described in the privacy policy. Remember to cancel any paid subscription first.
We may suspend or close an account in case of serious breach of these terms, fraudulent use or a legal obligation. Except in urgent cases or where prohibited by law, we will notify you in advance with the reason, and you may respond.
14. Personal data
How we process your personal data is described in the privacy policy.
15. Changes to these terms
We may change these terms, for example to reflect changes to the Service or the law. For material changes, we will notify you by email or in the Service at least 30 days in advance. If you do not accept the new terms, you may cancel and delete your account before they take effect.
16. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. However, if you are a consumer, you keep the benefit of the mandatory rules of the law of your country of residence, and you may also bring proceedings before the courts of that country.
If you have a problem, please write to us first at support@asterio.app: we will try to find an amicable solution. Failing that, disputes will be brought before the courts of Hong Kong, subject to the consumer rights set out above.
17. Miscellaneous
- If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in force.
- Failure to enforce a right does not constitute a waiver of that right.
- ASSETO Ltd may transfer the contract to a company taking over the Service, provided your rights are not reduced.
- These terms are available in English and French. In case of discrepancy, the English version prevails, unless the applicable law requires otherwise for the benefit of the consumer.
