Terms of use
Last updated: 6 October 2026
1. What these terms cover
They apply to the b-nker.com website, to the API and MCP server at api.b-nker.com, and to our downloadable data files (together, "the service"). Using the service means you accept these terms. The publisher is identified in the legal notice.
2. The service
The service is free and needs no account. It provides information, never investment advice: read the risk warning. We may change, suspend or stop any part of the service, including the API, without notice.
3. What you can and cannot do
You can read, share, quote, reuse our data under its licence (section 4), use the API and MCP server within the quotas (section 5), and let AI assistants read the site.
You cannot:
- get around the quotas (multiple addresses, someone else's key, disguised requests);
- attack, overload or disrupt the service; for bulk access, use the API or the data files rather than the pages;
- present our data as your own, or suggest that B-NKER backs or recommends you;
- use the B-NKER name or logo except to credit us.
4. Licences
Our facts and datasets (prop firm rules, calendar, official figures recorded by us) are published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence (CC BY 4.0). Commercial use is allowed. Attribution is required: the credit "Data: B-NKER (b-nker.com)", a link to the B-NKER page for the data (the API gives it in every response), and the official source shown with each fact.
Share-alike files. Figures taken from a source published under a share-alike licence (today, Colombia's TRM exchange rate from datos.gov.co) come in a separate file under CC BY-SA 4.0. Each file states its licence.
Not covered by these licences:
- quotes from firms and institutions: they remain their authors' and are reproduced as short extracts, for verification;
- texts from sources that forbid commercial reuse: we publish our own facts about them, never their texts;
- our articles: they are free to read on the site; a short quote with a link is fine, any other reproduction needs our written consent;
- the B-NKER name, logo and design.
Nothing in these terms restricts the rights a Creative Commons licence gives you.
5. API, MCP server and quotas
The API and the MCP server are open without a key, within per-address quotas. A free personal key gives higher quotas: ask for one at [email protected].
Quotas as of 5 October 2026:
| Access | Per minute | Per day |
|---|---|---|
| API without a key | 10 | 100 |
| MCP server without a key | 20 | 200 |
| Free key | 60 | 1,000 |
The quotas in force are returned in the RateLimit headers of every response and may change. Above them, the API answers 429. A key is personal: we may suspend or revoke it in case of abuse or circumvention. Paid plans, when they open, will have their own terms of sale.
6. No warranty
The service, data, API and files are provided as is, with no warranty of accuracy, completeness, timeliness or availability. Every data point carries its source and date: check the source before you act.
7. Liability
We are not liable for trading or investment decisions made using the service, or for their outcome, since the service gives no advice. We are not liable for the content or services of the third-party and partner sites we link to.
For business users, our total liability, for any cause, is capped at the higher of €100 or the amounts paid to us in the previous 12 months.
Nothing in these terms limits any liability that the law does not allow us to limit, in particular for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, nor any right consumers have under the law.
8. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by French law. If you are a consumer living in another country, you keep the protection of that country's mandatory rules.
Please write to us first at [email protected]: most issues are solved that way. Otherwise, a consumer may go to the court that has jurisdiction under the law. Between businesses, the courts within the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal of Chambéry (France) have exclusive jurisdiction.
9. Changes
We may change these terms. The online version and its date prevail and apply from publication.
