Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 3, 2026
1. Overview
TradeGuard ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use the TradeGuard Chrome Extension and our associated web platform. Our primary goal is to provide a "tilt firewall" that monitors your trading risk without compromising your personal data.
2. Data We Collect
Account Information
When you sign up, we collect your **email address** and name to manage your account and communicate important service updates.
Trading Data
The extension monitors your **real-time PnL, account balances, and open positions** on supported platforms (e.g., Tradovate) solely to enforce your risk parameters.
Authentication Tokens
We temporarily store **session tokens** from your trading broker to allow our backend to execute automated liquidation orders on your behalf.
Technical Logs
We collect minimal diagnostic data such as connection status and latency to ensure the reliability of the liquidation engine.
3. How We Use Your Data
- Risk Monitoring: To calculate your current loss against your pre-set limits.
- Automated Protection: To trigger "flatten-all" orders when a limit is breached.
- Account Management: To maintain your profile and preferences.
- System Integrity: To prevent bypass attempts and ensure the "tilt-proof" nature of the software.
4. Data Security
We employ industry-standard security measures to protect your data. Trading tokens are handled with extreme care, often processed in-memory and never sold or shared with third parties. We do not store your broker passwords; we only use temporary session tokens provided by the browser environment.
No Sale of Data: We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal or trading information to third parties for marketing or any other purposes.
5. Developer Disclosures
In compliance with the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies, we disclose that:
- We do not use or transfer user data for purposes unrelated to the item's single purpose.
- We do not use or transfer user data to determine creditworthiness or for lending purposes.
- We do not sell user data to third parties.
