Legal Notice & Third-Party Relationship Disclosure
Last updated: 2026-05-13
This page explains the relationship between Yieldsforge and Bitfinex and the legal nature of this service, so that end users, financial institutions, browser-safety vendors, and brand-protection providers can quickly verify the site's legitimacy.
Who we are
Yieldsforge is an independent, third-party automation tool that helps Bitfinex users run a funding (lending) strategy inside their own Bitfinex account using their own authorized funding API key. The service is operated by an independent developer. The domain yieldsforge.com is registered through Cloudflare Registrar; the marketing site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and the application backend runs on Railway.
Our relationship with Bitfinex
- Yieldsforge is not Bitfinex, iFinex Inc., or any of its affiliates, and is not authorized, endorsed, sponsored, or acting as an agent of Bitfinex.
- References to "Bitfinex" on this site are purely descriptive of the exchange we integrate with — analogous to how a tax-filing tool references "IRS" or a third-party dashboard references "Stripe". This is fair nominative use.
- "Bitfinex" is a trademark of iFinex Inc.; all rights belong to that company. This site does not use the Bitfinex logo, brand colors, or any visual element that could cause a reasonable user to mistake it for an official Bitfinex property.
- Any link from this site to Bitfinex's registration page uses Bitfinex's publicly available affiliate program. That program is open to anyone, and a third party using such a link is acting in compliance with Bitfinex's own terms.
Why this site is not a phishing site
- We never collect Bitfinex passwords or 2FA codes. Users sign in to Yieldsforge with Google OAuth — their own Google account — not Bitfinex credentials.
- API keys are enforced funding-only with no withdraw permission. Our API-key intake endpoint programmatically rejects any Bitfinex API key that has the
withdrawpermission enabled. Even a user who tries to submit such a key cannot do so. Source is available on request. - User principal always stays in the user's own Bitfinex account. Yieldsforge never holds, custodies, or transfers user funds.
- Users can revoke at any time. Revoking the API key inside Bitfinex's UI instantly terminates all Yieldsforge activity. There is no fund lock-up on our side.
- Transparent, auditable development history. Browser safety vendors, brand-protection providers, and financial institutions are welcome to email us for GitHub commit history, Railway deployment records, and Google OAuth client verification proving this is a real, actively developed product.
