Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
EdgeProven (“EdgeProven,” “we,” “us”), operated by [Legal Entity Name], provides an analytical tool for designing, validating, and paper-trading US-equities strategies. This policy explains what we collect, why, and your choices. It complements our Disclaimer and Terms of Service.
Information we collect
- Account data — your email address, an optional display name, and a securely hashed password (we never store your password in the clear).
- Broker credentials — if you connect a paper-trading broker, your API keys are encrypted at rest and used only to place and read orders on your own paper account. We do not sell or share them.
- Usage & device data — your IP address, an approximate location (country/city derived from IP), pages viewed, referring site, and device/browser type. When signed in, these are associated with your account.
- Content you submit — contact/enterprise form messages, strategy text you paste, watchlists, and support correspondence.
- Billing data — handled by our payment processor; we receive subscription status and the last four digits of a card, not full card numbers.
How we use it
To provide and secure the service (authentication, running your backtests and paper trades, delivering results), to send you transactional email (verification, password resets, security notices, and replies to your inquiries), to understand traffic and prevent abuse, to bill paid features, and to comply with law. We do not use your data to give you personalized investment advice, and we do not sell your personal information.
Service providers we share with
We share the minimum necessary with vendors who process data on our behalf under contract: Alpaca (paper brokerage), Anthropic (AI analysis of content you submit), Finnhub and market-data sources, Resend (transactional email), Cloudflare (privacy-first, cookie-free web analytics and network security), Fly.io (hosting), and Lemon Squeezy (payments). We do not share your data with advertisers.
Cookies
We use a single first-party session cookie to keep you signed in and to protect your account. It is essential to the service. We do not use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies; our analytics (Cloudflare) is cookie-free.
Data retention
Account data is kept while your account is active and deleted (or anonymized) on request or a reasonable period after closure. IP/usage-analytics records are retained for about 90 days and then deleted automatically. Encrypted broker credentials are deleted when you disconnect the broker or close your account.
Your choices & rights
You can view and update your account in Settings, change your password, and request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by emailing support@edgeproven.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights (e.g. under GDPR/CCPA); we honor applicable requests. Transactional emails are essential to the service; any future marketing emails will include a one-click unsubscribe.
Security
We hash passwords, encrypt broker credentials at rest, authenticate our sending domain, scope every query to the requesting account, and bound abuse with rate limits. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your data and will notify you of a breach affecting you as required by law.
Children
EdgeProven is not directed to anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a minor has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
International users
We operate from the United States; using the service means your data may be processed there. We rely on appropriate safeguards where required for cross-border transfers.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy; we will change the “last updated” date and, for material changes, provide additional notice. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
