Practice investing, not financial advice.
These terms describe what Investor Island is, who is responsible for what, and the limits of a simulated market.
Educational simulation
All cash, positions, orders, fills, gains, losses, and rankings are simulated. Nothing on the service is an offer, recommendation, brokerage service, or instruction to buy or sell a real security.
Authorized classroom use
Teachers and schools are responsible for inviting participants, choosing appropriate settings, supervising activity, and using exports consistently with their own policies and applicable law.
Market data
Investor Island uses Alpaca Basic’s consolidated U.S. market feed, delayed about 15 minutes. Classroom trades execute at the latest downloaded price, which may be older still while offline. Each investment shows its source time.
Fair use
Users may not attempt to disrupt the service, access another person’s account, scrape restricted data, introduce malicious content, or represent simulated results as real brokerage records.
Your information
How we handle teacher and student information is covered by our privacy policy, which applies to every Mini Maker Academy tool. Questions about these terms or about student data can go to hello@minimakeracademy.com.
