Your money stays on your account
Tarvis trades through a key that can place and cancel orders and nothing else. Here is how that key is protected, how risk is limited, and what to do if something looks wrong.
This limit comes from Hyperliquid, not from a promise of ours. An agent wallet can trade for your account and has no way to withdraw, even if somebody stole it. If Tarvis stopped working tomorrow, you could still sign in to Hyperliquid and take your money out without us.
How we protect the key
- Checked before storing
- Tarvis asks Hyperliquid what the key is and refuses a main wallet key.
- Encrypted
- The key is stored encrypted with AES-256-GCM and is never shown again.
- Used only to sign
- Only our trading service decrypts it, in memory, to sign your orders.
- Yours to revoke
- Remove the agent wallet on Hyperliquid and Tarvis loses access at once.
- Balance used
- You choose the share of your balance the strategies may trade with.
- Leverage limit
- Day trading runs under a 3.0× limit on the whole wallet.
- Restrict at any moment
- Pause new trades, protect profits, or allow one side only.
- Exit at once
- Cut losing positions, or close everything at market, in one action.
These limits decide how much goes to work. They do not remove market risk: a sharp move can still mean a loss, and with leverage even liquidation. Read Safety and risks before you start.
Protect your login
The key cannot withdraw, but anyone with your Tarvis login could change your settings or stop your trading.
- Turn on two-factor authentication.
- Use a unique password.
- Nobody from Tarvis will ever ask for your seed phrase or your main wallet's private key.
- Sign in only at tarvis.trade, and be careful with links from messages.
If you think a key has leaked
-
Remove the agent wallet
On Hyperliquid, open More → API and remove it. Tarvis stops trading on that key at once. Open positions and their orders stay on Hyperliquid, so check them there.

Secure your accounts
