Privacy Policy

Draft, November 12, 2026. Pending legal review.

We collect what we need to run your account and send your alerts, and nothing more. We never sell your data or share what you follow. See also the Terms of Service.

1. What we collect

Account details: your email address, your name if you sign in with Google, and a password hash if you use a password.

Your activity on WhoTraded: who and what you follow, your watchlist, your alert settings, and which alert emails you open or click.

Payments: if you buy Pro, Stripe handles your card. We receive your plan, billing country and the last four digits of the card, never the full number.

Usage data: pages viewed, device and browser type, and an approximate location from your IP address, used to keep the Service working and secure.

2. How we use it

We use it to run your account, send the alerts and digests you ask for, process payments, prevent abuse, and improve the Service. We do not sell or rent your personal information, and we do not share your follows or watchlist with anyone.

3. People named in public records

WhoTraded publishes information that members of Congress and corporate insiders are required by law to disclose, taken from official government filings. We publish it as news, and we link each item to its source. If you believe we have reported a filing inaccurately, email [email protected] and we will check it against the source.

4. Email

Alert and digest emails go only to people who ask for them. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, and you can change alert settings at any time in your dashboard.

5. Service providers

We use a small set of providers to run WhoTraded: hosting on our own servers in Germany (Hetzner), Cloudflare for security and delivery, Stripe for payments, Resend for email, and Google if you choose Google sign-in. Each receives only what it needs to do its job.

6. Keeping and deleting data

We keep account data while your account is open. Delete your account from Settings and we erase your personal data within 30 days, except billing records we must keep for tax law.

7. Your rights

You can see, correct, export or delete your data, and object to how we use it. California residents have rights under the CCPA, and people in the EU and UK under the GDPR. We honor these requests for everyone. Email [email protected].

8. Cookies

We use cookies to keep you signed in and remember your settings, and privacy-friendly analytics to count visits. We do not use advertising cookies or sell data to ad networks.

9. Changes and contact

We will post any change here and email you if it is significant. WhoTraded is operated by C6 Labs LLC. Questions: [email protected].
