Privacy Policy

Effective date: January 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Market Radar (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website and services (the “Service”).

1. Information we collect

We may collect the following categories of information:

  • Account information: email address, name (if provided), and authentication identifiers (e.g., via Clerk or similar provider).
  • Watchlist and preferences: symbols you save, tier/feature settings, alert preferences, and app configuration.
  • Usage data: pages viewed, actions taken (e.g., creating a watchlist symbol), feature usage, timestamps, and approximate device/browser information.
  • Payment information: subscription status, plan, billing cycle, and payment identifiers from our payment provider (we do not store full card numbers).
  • Communications: emails you send to support and our replies; delivery events for emails we send (e.g., via Resend).

2. How we use information

  • Provide and operate the Service (watchlist, briefs, alerts).
  • Authenticate users and maintain account security.
  • Process subscriptions and manage billing status.
  • Send transactional emails (e.g., alerts, brief delivery, account notices).
  • Improve performance, reliability, and product experience.
  • Prevent abuse, enforce policies, and comply with law.

3. AI features and data handling

Some tiers include AI-generated explanations or summaries based on market data and news. We may store AI outputs (such as summaries) to improve consistency, reduce cost, and provide faster loading.

  • AI content may be cached (e.g., in Redis) and stored in a database for reuse across views (watchlist, briefs, symbol detail).
  • We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Sharing of information

We share information only as needed to operate the Service, including:

  • Authentication providers (e.g., Clerk) for login and identity.
  • Payment processors (e.g., Stripe) for subscriptions and billing.
  • Email providers (e.g., Resend) to deliver emails and alerts.
  • Hosting and infrastructure (e.g., Vercel, database hosting, caching) required to run the Service.

We may also share information if required by law or to protect our rights, users, and the Service.

5. Cookies and analytics

We may use cookies or similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, and understand product usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but some features may not work properly without them.

6. Data retention

We retain personal information as long as necessary to provide the Service, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. We may retain aggregated or de-identified information longer for analytics and product improvements.

7. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your choices and rights

  • You may update your account information and preferences in the Service.
  • You may unsubscribe from non-essential emails where applicable. Transactional emails (e.g., security or billing notices) may still be sent as required.
  • Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information. Contact us to request assistance.

9. Children

The Service is not intended for children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date and may provide notice through the Service or via email.
