What TradeSmithy collects, why it needs it, and who else ever sees it. There is no advertising here, so there is no data collected for it.
Last updated 2026-08-17
1.The short version
We collect what the service needs to work and nothing for advertising. There is no advertising network on this site, no tracking pixel, no analytics profile sold to anyone, and no third-party cookie.
Two outside services see some of your data because the product cannot work without them: an AI provider, which receives the strategy graph you ask it to modify or export, and a cryptocurrency payment processor, which handles top-ups. Both are named below.
2.What we collect
All of it is either something you typed, something you built, or a record of an action you took here.
- Account: your email address, your display name, and a profile photo if you signed in with Google
- Content: the strategies you build, their node graphs, project names and descriptions, and any custom indicator files you upload
- Marketplace: your listings, your purchases, and the display name shown next to them
- Money: your wallet balance, a ledger of every credit and debit, and top-up records including the amount, currency and payment status
- Usage: how many AI messages, exports and backtests you have used in the current period, so quotas can be enforced
- Requests: a log of each AI request you make and its result, so a failure can be diagnosed and a charge can be explained
- Preferences: your theme and autosave settings
3.What we do not collect
We never see your broker, your trading account, your positions or your money outside this service. Nothing in the product connects to a broker.
We do not store card details, because we do not take card payments. We do not store your password: sign-in is handled by Google Firebase Authentication, and a password reset is issued by them, not read by us.
4.Why we use it, and on what basis
To provide the service you asked for: saving your work, generating code, running backtests, settling purchases and enforcing the limits of your plan. This is the performance of our contract with you.
To keep the service working and honest: rate limits, quota enforcement, fraud and abuse prevention, and the operator audit log that records every manual adjustment to a balance. This is our legitimate interest in running a service that is not abused.
To meet legal obligations, such as keeping records of transactions.
6.What other users can see
If you publish a listing, other signed-in users see its name, description, category, price, target terminal, node and edge counts, a structural summary of what it uses, and your display name and photo. They do not see the strategy itself until they buy it.
Your email address, your wallet balance, your other projects and your purchase history are never visible to another user.
7.How long we keep it
Projects, listings and files stay until you delete them or close your account. Financial records — the wallet ledger, top-ups and purchase receipts — are kept after account closure for as long as accounting and fraud-prevention obligations require, because a transaction record cannot be unmade by one party to it.
A listing with buyers is retained even if you close your account, so the people who paid for it keep access to what they bought.
8.Your rights
You can ask us for a copy of your data, to correct it, to delete it, or to stop a particular use of it. Most of it you can already reach in the app: your projects, your listings, your wallet ledger and your usage are all visible to you.
Depending on where you live you may also have the right to object to processing, to data portability, or to complain to a data protection authority. Contact us and we will act on a request within the time the applicable law allows.
10.Children
This service is not for children. It is not directed at anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has an account here, contact us and we will remove it.
Contact
No contact address is configured for this deployment. Set SUPPORT_EMAIL before opening the service to the public — a paid service with no reachable operator cannot resolve a billing dispute, and most payment processors require one.
