This English translation is provided for convenience only. The legally binding version is the German original (Impressum). In case of any discrepancy, the German version prevails.

Information pursuant to Section 5 DDG and Section 18 MStV

Below we provide the legally required information about this website (alpha-investing.de). The relevant provisions are in particular Section 5 of the German Digital Services Act (Digitale-Dienste-Gesetz, "DDG"), Section 18 of the German Interstate Media Treaty (Medienstaatsvertrag, "MStV") and further obligations under other provisions (Section 5(2) DDG).

This website is a digital service provided on a business basis. It is aimed at readers in Germany and the European Union. The provider is not established in the Union. The European country-of-origin principle therefore does not apply to it; the German information requirements must nevertheless be met because the service is directed at the German market.

Corporation under the laws of the Province of Saskatchewan, Canada
1500-1874 Scarth Street

"Alpha Investing" is the brand name of the service, not the name of a legal entity.

4. Registration, tax and professional regulation

  • Register (Section 5(1) No. 4 DDG): Frontier Media Inc. is registered with the Saskatchewan Corporate Registry (Information Services Corporation, Canada) under entity number 102241657. The applicable corporate law is The Business Corporations Act, 2021 (Saskatchewan). There is no entry in a German commercial, association, partnership or cooperative register.
  • VAT identification number (Section 5(1) No. 6 DDG in conjunction with Section 27a of the German VAT Act, UStG): No German or EU VAT identification number has been issued.

  • Regulated professions (Section 5(1) No. 5 DDG): The service is not provided in the exercise of a regulated profession within the meaning of the recognition directives referred to there. Details of a professional chamber, professional title and professional rules therefore do not apply.

5. No financial service requiring authorisation

This website is not operated as part of an activity that requires official authorisation under the German Banking Act (KWG), the German Investment Firm Act (WpIG) or a comparable licence. Accordingly, no competent supervisory authority needs to be named under Section 5(1) No. 3 DDG.

The provider is not an investment services firm and does not provide investment advice or investment brokerage. The German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) is not the supervisory authority for this service.

6. Editorial contact

This website contains journalistic and editorial content (analyses, articles, market and company texts). Please send editorial enquiries and requests for counterstatements to:

Jordan Madill
Chief Executive Officer
Frontier Media Inc.

7. Nature of the service

Alpha Investing publishes publicly accessible analyses and accompanying editorial content on shares and other instruments. The service is free of charge, with no user account, no newsletter sign-up and no payment processing on the website.

The service is provided on a business basis within the meaning of Section 5 DDG because it is offered on a sustained basis and not exclusively for personal or family purposes. No payment by the reader is required for this.

8. No investment advice, no individual recommendation

The content is provided for general information and editorial analysis. It

  • does not take into account the personal circumstances of any reader,
  • is not presented as suitable for any particular person, and
  • is made available to the public exclusively through information distribution channels.

It therefore does not constitute investment advice within the meaning of Section 1(1a) sentence 2 No. 1a KWG or Section 2(2) No. 4 WpIG. It is not a solicitation to buy, sell or hold a financial instrument and not an offer to enter into a contract.

Every investment decision is yours alone. If in doubt, seek independent advice based on your own situation. Investments involve risks and can lead to the total loss of the capital invested.

Legal notices relating to individual pages or companies are set out in the respective disclaimer blocks. They supplement this legal notice but do not replace it.

9. Investment recommendations and conflicts of interest

Where an article in an individual case constitutes an investment recommendation or an investment strategy recommendation within the meaning of Article 3(1) points 34 and 35 of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (Market Abuse Regulation), the transparency and organisational requirements of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/958 and – where applicable – the notification requirement under Section 86 of the German Securities Trading Act (WpHG) also apply.

In such an article we disclose in particular

  • the identity of the person responsible for its production,
  • material conflicts of interest, insofar as they are known to us, and
  • whether any third party (such as an issuer) has paid for its production or distribution.

The provider, persons associated with it or its agents may hold positions in the instruments discussed. Where we are aware of this, we disclose it alongside the relevant content.

The provider is currently not entered in the list of independent producers of investment recommendations published by BaFin.

10. Commercial communications

Commercial communications that form part of this website are labelled as such. We identify the natural or legal person on whose behalf they are made (Section 6(1) DDG, Section 22 MStV).

Links to brokers, issuers or other third parties are ordinary references unless they are separately labelled as advertising. We are not responsible for the offerings of these third parties.

11. Consumer dispute resolution

We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board (Section 36 of the German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act, VSBG).

We do not conclude any contracts for consideration with consumers via this website. The European Online Dispute Resolution platform is available at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/; we do not use it for this service.

12. Counterstatement

The right of counterstatement under Section 20 MStV applies to journalistic and editorial telemedia. Please send any request for a counterstatement in writing, stating the publication concerned, to the email address or postal address in section 1 or to the editorial contact named in section 6.

13. Liability for our own content

As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on this website under general law. The content is prepared with editorial care (Section 19 MStV). Nevertheless, facts, prices, key figures and assessments may change at short notice.

We do not provide binding information, do not guarantee accuracy, completeness or timeliness, and accept no liability for investment decisions based solely on the content of this website, unless we have acted intentionally or with gross negligence or liability cannot be excluded under mandatory law.

14. Liability for links

This website contains links to external third-party websites. We have no influence over their content. The respective provider is always responsible for the linked pages.

At the time of linking, we were not aware of any legal infringements. If we become aware of an infringement, we will remove the link concerned.

15. Copyright

Unless otherwise indicated, the texts, graphics, analyses and other content published on this website are subject to German copyright law. Any use not permitted by copyright law, in particular reproduction, adaptation, distribution or public communication, requires the prior consent of the provider or the respective rights holder.

Downloads and copies are permitted for personal, non-commercial use only. Where content was not created by the provider, third-party copyrights are respected and such content is marked accordingly.

16. Data protection

Information on the processing of personal data, hosting, analytics tags and your rights can be found in the Privacy Policy.

17. Audiovisual media services

This website is not an audiovisual media service within the meaning of Section 5(1) No. 8 DDG. Embedded voice-over files for individual texts do not change this. Information on a country of establishment and on broadcasting supervisory authorities therefore does not apply.

18. Changes

We update this information when the provider's identity, contact details, the legal situation or the nature of the service change. The version published on this page applies. The date of the last editorial change is shown under "Last updated" on this page.
