1. Summary

  • We keep the personal data needed to run your account, bill you and send the messages you ask for, and little else.
  • Your identity (name, email, sign-in) lives with our identity provider and in our account system. The scanner that serves market data knows you only by a pseudonymous key: no name, no email.
  • We do not sell personal data and we do not use advertising cookies.

The controller of your personal data is {{COMPANY_NAME}}, {{REGISTERED_ADDRESS}}, {{JURISDICTION}}. Contact: {{CONTACT_EMAIL}}.

Counsel to confirm: legal bases for each purpose (contract, legal obligation, legitimate interest), the operational log retention period, and the audit log retention period.

Market data (prices, funding rates, order books) is not personal data.

3. Who processes data for us

  • Clerk: identity, sign-in and sessions.
  • Email provider ({{EMAIL_PROVIDER}}): delivering emails to your verified address.
  • Telegram: only if you link a chat; it receives the alert messages you asked for and your chat id is stored with us.
  • Blockchain RPC providers ({{BLOCKCHAIN_RPC_PROVIDERS}}): we query them for deposits to your invoice addresses. They see the addresses and transactions we ask about, not your name.
  • Hosting ({{HOSTING_PROVIDER}}): runs our servers and databases.

Trading venues send us public market data; we do not share your data with them.

Counsel to confirm: international transfers and the safeguards used for each processor outside {{JURISDICTION}}.

4. Staff access

Access by our staff is limited by role and recorded in the audit log. For support, staff can open a read-only view of what your account sees for up to 15 minutes; they cannot change settings or pay in that view, and each session is audited.

5. Security

Data is encrypted in transit. API keys are stored as keyed hashes, secrets are never logged, and sensitive actions by staff require a second person's approval. No system is perfectly secure; we will tell you without undue delay if a breach affects your data.

6. Your choices and rights

  • Change your notification preferences or unlink Telegram on the Notifications page; remove favourites, alerts and paper positions in the app.
  • Depending on the law that applies to you, you may ask to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, or object to or restrict its use. Write to {{CONTACT_EMAIL}}.
  • You may complain to the data protection authority in {{JURISDICTION}} or where you live.

7. Children

The service is not for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect their data.

8. Changes

We will post changes here with a new effective date and tell account holders about material changes by email.
