PRIVACY POLICY

Effective date: June 25, 2026

OVERVIEW

TradePiko is a swing trading analytics platform operated by TradePiko Inc. (Ontario, Canada). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website at tradepiko.com and our associated services.

By using TradePiko, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with our practices, please do not use our services.

ACCOUNTABILITY

TradePiko Inc. is responsible for the personal information under our control, including information we transfer to third parties for processing.

TradePiko Inc. is a corporation based in Ontario, Canada. It has no staff, so there is no separate privacy department: the director of the corporation is the individual accountable for our compliance with this policy and with applicable privacy law, and personally handles every access request, correction request, and complaint. We will provide the name of that individual on request.

Email: support@tradepiko.com

Service providers who process personal information on our behalf are bound by written agreements requiring a comparable level of protection, and we remain accountable for that information while it is in their hands.

WHAT WE COLLECT

Account information

  • Name and email address (collected at registration)
  • Profile photo, if you choose to upload one
  • Password (stored in hashed form via Supabase Auth — we never see your plain-text password)
  • Subscription tier and billing status

Trading data

  • CSV trade data you upload manually
  • Trade history synced from connected broker accounts via SnapTrade
  • Tags, notes, simulations, and journal entries you create within the platform
  • Position Sizing Advisor settings and preferences

Your trades, positions, and journal entries are private to your account. They are never visible to other users, never displayed publicly, and never shared with or sold to any third party for marketing, research, or any other purpose.

Payment information

Payment processing is handled by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full payment details. Stripe provides us with only a payment token and subscription status.

Limiting collection

We collect only the personal information necessary for the purposes identified in this policy, and we collect it by fair and lawful means. We do not buy personal information about you from data brokers, and we do not collect information by misleading or deceptive means.

HOW WE USE YOUR DATA

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain the TradePiko platform
  • Process your subscription payments and manage billing
  • Display your trade history, analytics, and journal entries
  • Sync trade data from connected broker accounts
  • Send transactional emails (account creation, password reset, billing)
  • Send occasional product updates and announcements, which you can opt out of at any time
  • Respond to support requests and inquiries
  • Improve and develop new features for the platform
  • Monitor for security threats and prevent fraud
  • Comply with legal obligations

If we ever want to use your personal information for a purpose that is not listed above and not obvious from the service itself, we will identify that purpose and obtain your consent before doing so.

We do not use your trading data to train AI models, sell market intelligence to third parties, or share your positions with other users. Your trade data belongs to you and is treated as strictly private, with one exception: when you use the AI Trade Coach feature, relevant trade data is sent to our AI provider, Scaleway, solely to generate the analysis you requested — see the AI Trade Coach section below for details.

DATA SHARING

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:

Service providers

  • Supabase — authentication and database hosting
  • Stripe — payment processing and subscription management
  • SnapTrade — broker connectivity and trade data aggregation
  • Tiingo — market data, historical price charts, and quotes
  • Scaleway — AI inference provider (France) powering the AI Trade Coach feature
  • Earnings API — company earnings date data
  • Resend — transactional and account-related email delivery
  • Vercel — application hosting and deployment

All service providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and may only use it to provide services to TradePiko.

Transfers outside Canada: Several of the providers listed above store and process personal information outside Canada, principally in the United States. We remain accountable under Canadian privacy law for information we transfer to a service provider for processing, and we use written agreements requiring a comparable level of protection. You should know that while your information is in another country it is subject to that country's laws, and may be accessible to its courts, law enforcement, and national security authorities under those laws. If you would like to know where a particular category of information is processed, just ask us.

Legal requirements

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or government authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or the safety of our users.

BROKER DATA (SNAPTRADE)

When you connect a brokerage account through TradePiko, we use SnapTrade to facilitate the connection. Here is how this works:

  • Your brokerage login credentials are entered directly through SnapTrade's secure hosted interface — TradePiko never sees or stores your broker username or password
  • SnapTrade obtains OAuth authorization tokens from your broker and stores them securely
  • TradePiko stores a SnapTrade user ID and user secret in our database to identify your SnapTrade account — these are not your broker credentials
  • Trade history and position data is fetched from SnapTrade on demand and displayed to you — we do not permanently store this raw brokerage data beyond what you explicitly save in your TradePiko journal
  • You can disconnect your broker at any time from within TradePiko settings, which revokes SnapTrade's access

For more information on how SnapTrade handles your data, visit snaptrade.com/privacy.

AI TRADE COACH (SCALEWAY)

The AI Trade Coach feature uses an AI model to analyze your trading data and answer questions you ask about it. The model runs on Scaleway, a French cloud provider, on servers in Paris, France. Here is how this works:

  • When you use AI Trade Coach, relevant trade data (such as your trade history, P&L, tags, or the specific question you asked) is sent to Scaleway's Generative APIs to generate a response
  • This data is sent only when you actively use the feature — it is not sent continuously or in the background
  • Scaleway operates on a zero data retention basis by default: your inputs and the model's outputs are not stored, read, reused or analyzed once your request has been answered
  • Your data is not used to train or improve any AI model, by TradePiko, by Scaleway, or by the model's creators
  • Scaleway hosts the model itself, which means the organization that originally built the model never receives your data at all
  • As a European company operating in France, Scaleway is not subject to the US CLOUD Act
  • Scaleway's one stated exception to zero retention: request content may be held for up to two weeks where this is necessary to diagnose a server error or investigate apparent abuse of the service
  • We recommend avoiding entering personally identifying information beyond what's already in your trade data (e.g., in custom questions you type) when using this feature

Scaleway is a third-party AI provider and processes data under its own privacy practices — see scaleway.com. If you have concerns about sending trade data to a third-party AI provider, you can simply avoid using the AI Trade Coach feature — it is entirely optional and does not affect any other part of the platform.

SECURITY

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your information:

  • All data is encrypted in transit using TLS/HTTPS
  • Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and never stored in plain text
  • Database access is restricted and protected by row-level security
  • API keys and secrets are stored as environment variables, never in source code
  • We use Supabase's enterprise-grade infrastructure for data storage

No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

ACCURACY OF YOUR INFORMATION

We keep personal information as accurate, complete, and up to date as is necessary for the purposes for which it is used. You can review and update your account information at any time in Settings, and you can edit or delete any trade, tag, note, or journal entry you have created.

Some information reaches us from third parties — trade history from your broker through SnapTrade, prices from our market data provider, billing status from Stripe. We display that information as we receive it. If something imported from a third party looks wrong, you can correct it in your journal, and we would encourage you to raise it with the source as well, since we cannot change records held by your broker.

If you tell us information we hold is inaccurate or incomplete, we will correct it where we agree. Where we do not agree, we will record that you disputed it, and, where appropriate, tell any third party who received the information.

IF THERE IS A DATA BREACH

If a breach of our security safeguards creates a real risk of significant harm to you, we will:

  • Report the breach to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada as soon as feasible
  • Notify you directly as soon as feasible, describing what happened, what information was involved, what we are doing about it, and what steps you can take to reduce your risk
  • Notify any other organization or government institution that may be able to reduce the risk of harm

We maintain records of every breach of security safeguards involving personal information, whether or not it triggers notification, and we retain those records for at least 24 months as required by law.

DATA RETENTION

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. Specifically:

  • Account data is retained for the duration of your subscription plus 90 days after account closure
  • Trade journal data and simulations are retained for the same period as account data above — through your subscription and for 90 days after account closure — so your data remains available if you resubscribe
  • Payment records are retained for 7 years as required by Canadian tax law
  • You may request deletion of your account and data at any time by emailing support@tradepiko.com

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy or to meet a legal requirement, and we set retention periods with that in mind rather than keeping information indefinitely by default. When information reaches the end of its retention period, or when you ask us to delete it and no legal requirement to keep it applies, we delete it or irreversibly de-identify it.

We may keep aggregated or de-identified information — figures that cannot reasonably be used to identify you, such as counts of how often a feature is used — for product analytics after your account is closed. We do not attempt to re-identify that information.

Backups are retained on a rolling basis and overwritten in the ordinary course, so information deleted from the live system may persist in a backup for a short period before being overwritten.

YOUR RIGHTS

As a user of TradePiko, you have the following rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Correction: Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information
  • Deletion: Request that we delete your account and personal data
  • Portability: Request an export of your trade journal data in a machine-readable format
  • Opt-out: Unsubscribe from non-transactional email communications at any time
  • Broker disconnection: Remove connected broker accounts at any time within Settings
  • Challenge accuracy: Challenge the accuracy and completeness of your information and have it amended where appropriate
  • Withdraw consent: Withdraw your consent to our processing, as described in Your consent

How to make a request

Email us at support@tradepiko.com. So that we do not disclose your information to the wrong person, we will first confirm your identity, normally by verifying control of the email address on the account.

We will respond within 30 days of receiving your request. If we need more time, we will tell you before the 30 days are up, explain why, give you a new date, and tell you that you may complain to the Privacy Commissioner about the delay. Access requests are free; if a request would involve a cost to you, we will tell you the estimated cost first and give you the chance to withdraw or narrow it.

On request we will also tell you how your personal information has been used, and give an account of the third parties and the types of third parties it has been disclosed to.

When we may not be able to comply

There are limited situations where the law prevents or excuses us from giving access — for example, where doing so would reveal personal information about another individual, where the information is protected by solicitor-client privilege, or where disclosure would compromise the security of the platform. If we refuse a request in whole or in part, we will tell you in writing, explain why, and tell you how to complain.

Deletion is subject to limits as well: we must keep payment and tax records for the period described in Data retention, even after an account is closed.

Canadian residents have these rights under PIPEDA (the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act). See Questions and complaints if you are unhappy with how we have handled a request.

QUESTIONS AND COMPLAINTS

If you have a concern about how we handle your personal information, we want to hear it first so we have a chance to fix it.

  1. Contact us at support@tradepiko.com. We will acknowledge your complaint, investigate it, and respond in writing. If we find your complaint is justified, we will take appropriate steps, including correcting our practices or policies if needed.
  2. Escalate to a regulator. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca, 1-800-282-1376).

Depending on where you live, you may instead be able to complain to a provincial regulator — the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Alberta, the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia, or the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.

ADDITIONAL REGIONAL RIGHTS

Quebec

If you are in Quebec, you have the right to be informed when we collect your personal information and why, to request that we stop disseminating it or de-index it in certain circumstances, and to receive the computerized personal information you provided to us in a structured, commonly used technological format. The owner of the business, described under Accountability above, is the person responsible for the protection of personal information. We assess the privacy implications before transferring personal information outside Quebec.

Automated processing

We do not make decisions about you based exclusively on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects. The AI Trade Coach, Position Sizing Advisor, Piko 50 watchlist, and simulation tools produce analysis and suggestions for you to read and act on as you see fit — they do not decide anything about your account, your eligibility, or your pricing.

European Economic Area and United Kingdom

If you are in the EEA or the UK, our legal bases for processing are: performance of our contract with you (operating your account and delivering the service), your consent (broker connection, AI features, product emails), our legitimate interests (securing the platform, preventing fraud, improving features), and compliance with legal obligations (tax and accounting records). You have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, and you may lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority. Personal information transferred out of the EEA or UK is protected by appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses.

California

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioural advertising. California residents may request to know, delete, or correct personal information, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising those rights.

COOKIES

TradePiko uses a small number of cookies and similar technologies:

  • Authentication cookies: Used to keep you logged in to your account (essential)
  • Preference cookies: Used to remember your dashboard settings and preferences

We do not use advertising cookies or sell data to advertising networks. You can control cookie settings through your browser, though disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging in.

EMAIL AND ANTI-SPAM

We send two kinds of email:

  • Transactional messages about your account, billing, security, and service changes. These are part of the service and are not marketing, so they do not carry an unsubscribe link.
  • Commercial messages such as product updates and announcements, which we send with your consent and which always identify us and include a working unsubscribe link.

You can unsubscribe from commercial messages using the link in any such email or by contacting support@tradepiko.com. We honour unsubscribe requests promptly and in any event within 10 business days, consistent with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation.

CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

TradePiko is not directed at individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us at support@tradepiko.com and we will delete it promptly.

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new policy on this page with an updated effective date. For significant changes, we will also notify registered users by email.

Your continued use of TradePiko after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
