Privacy Policy
Effective Date: February 1, 2026
DarkMode Devs LLC ("we," "us," or "our"), an Arizona limited liability company, operates The Intelligent Trader web application (the "Service") at theintelligenttrader.app. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information.
1. Information We Collect
a. Account Information
When you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address, and profile photo from your Google account. This information is used for authentication and to identify your account within the Service.
b. Trading Data
You voluntarily enter trading data into the Service, including but not limited to: options and futures trades, premarket analyses, trading rules, trade notes, and trade context information (confidence, mood, market condition, volatility). This data is stored in Google Cloud Firestore under your authenticated user account.
c. AI Coach Data
When you use the AI Coach feature, your trade data and premarket analyses are sent to the Anthropic API (Claude) for analysis. The AI-generated analyses are stored in your account. Anthropic's data handling is governed by their own privacy policy.
d. Payment Information
Subscription payments are processed by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number or full payment details. Stripe manages your payment information in accordance with their privacy policy and PCI-DSS compliance standards.
e. Analytics Data
We use Google Analytics and Firebase Analytics to collect anonymized usage data such as page views, session duration, and device type. This data helps us improve the Service and is not linked to your trading data.
f. Support Inquiries
When you submit a support form, your name, email, and message are sent to us via Formspree. Formspree's data handling is governed by their own privacy policy.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To provide, maintain, and improve the Service
- To authenticate your identity and secure your account
- To process your subscription and manage billing through Stripe
- To generate AI-powered trade analyses via the Anthropic API
- To respond to support inquiries
- To analyze anonymized usage patterns and improve the Service
3. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored in Google Cloud Firestore, secured by Firebase Authentication and Firestore Security Rules that restrict access to your own data. All data transmission is encrypted via HTTPS. While we implement reasonable security measures, no method of electronic storage is 100% secure.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for marketing purposes. Your data may be shared with the following service providers solely to operate the Service:
- Google/Firebase — authentication, database hosting, analytics, and app hosting
- Anthropic — AI-powered trade analysis (AI Coach feature)
- Stripe — payment processing and subscription management
- Formspree — support form submission processing
5. Data Retention and Deletion
Your data is retained as long as your account is active. You may delete your account at any time through the app's settings, which immediately and permanently deletes all your data from our database, including trades, premarket analyses, trading rules, AI analyses, and subscription records. This action is irreversible.
6. Cookies and Tracking
The Service uses cookies and local storage for authentication session management and to persist UI preferences (such as accordion states). Google Analytics may set cookies to collect anonymized usage data. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels.
7. Children's Privacy
The Service is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
8. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access all data stored in your account through the app
- Delete your account and all associated data at any time
- Contact us with questions about your data
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
