Privacy Policy
Effective
Claridae is a trading journal, so it keeps what you write in it. This page says what that is, who else handles it, and how to get a copy or have it deleted. The short version: no ads, no analytics or tracking scripts, and nothing is sold.
Who we are
Claridae (“Claridae”, “we”) runs claridae.com from New York, NY. For anything on this page, write to hello@claridae.com.
What we collect
- Your email address, to send you a sign-in link. There is no password, so none is stored.
- What you put in. Your accounts and their rules; your trades (instrument, direction, times, prices, size, fees, planned risk, result, setup and session tags, how you felt, your notes); day reflections; your rulebook; morning check-ins and the rulebook as it stood when you checked in; fees and payouts you record; and a handle and check-in time if you set them.
- Billing, if you subscribe: your Stripe customer ID and your plan. Your card details go to Stripe and never reach us.
- Notifications, if you turn them on: the address your browser's push service gives us for your device.
- Where your first visit came from: the page you landed on, its campaign tags or the site that linked to it, and a creator's code if you came through their link. It's stored with your account when you sign up, so we can count sign-ups by source and pay creators. A click on a creator's link records the creator, the time and the page, not your IP address. If you arrived through a card or page someone shared, we record that it was a shared card, not whose.
- Sharing, if you use it: your handle, the cards you send, who your partners are, and the nods you give and get.
- Creator program, if you apply: what you tell us (your name, where you post, your audience, your links) and the email you want payouts sent to.
- Server logs. Our host records each request (IP address, browser, page, time) to run and secure the site, and keeps them for a short period.
Voice logging runs in your browser: its own speech recognition turns what you say into text (Chrome uses Google's service, Safari uses Apple's), and Claridae receives only the text.
What we don't do
- No advertising, no analytics or session-recording scripts, no tracking pixels. Fonts and scripts load from claridae.com, not from a third party.
- We don't sell or rent your information, or share it for advertising.
- Nothing from your journal is shown to anyone unless you send it or turn on your public page, and even then never your P&L, a balance, an account size, a firm, your notes or your email. A creator never sees who signed up through their link.
- We don't send marketing email unless you ask for it.
Why we use it
- To run Claridae for you: sign you in, store your journal, compute your numbers, send the notifications you turned on, and write Callie's recap if you're on Pro.
- To bill you, if you subscribe, through Stripe.
- To keep the service secure and find and fix what breaks.
- To count where sign-ups come from and pay the creators who brought them.
If you're in the UK or the EU: the first two are needed to provide what you signed up for; the last two are our legitimate interests, kept small (no IP addresses, nothing from other sites).
Who handles it for us
These companies process data on our behalf, only to provide their part of Claridae:
- Vercel hosts the site and its logs.
- Supabase runs the database and sign-in.
- Resend sends the sign-in email.
- Stripe takes payments and runs the billing portal. What you give Stripe is also covered by Stripe's own privacy policy.
- Anthropic writes Callie's Friday recap for Pro. It receives a summary of your week computed from your journal: how many trades, wins and losses, the net result, the best and worst day, how you tagged your feelings, rules broken. Not your email, your name or your notes. If Anthropic can't be reached, the same summary may go to Groq instead.
- Your browser's push service (Google, Apple, Mozilla or Microsoft) delivers the notifications you turn on.
- Zoho hosts our email, when you write to us.
Beyond them, we share information only if the law requires it, to protect someone's safety, or with a buyer if Claridae is ever sold, in which case you'd be told first and this policy would still apply to what you'd given us.
Where it's stored, and for how long
Your data is stored mainly in the United States. If you use Claridae from elsewhere, that's where it goes.
We keep your account and journal for as long as the account exists. When you ask us to delete it, we do within 30 days, and copies in backups are gone within a further 30. Records the law makes us keep, such as payments and creator commissions for tax, are kept for as long as it requires.
Your rights
Wherever you live, you can ask us to:
- show you what we hold about you, or send you a copy of your journal you can take elsewhere;
- correct something that's wrong;
- delete your account and everything in it.
Write to hello@claridae.com from the address on your account and we'll answer within 30 days. Much of it you can also do yourself: trades, rules and accounts can be edited or removed in the app. Asking never costs you anything or changes how you're treated. If you're in the UK, the EU or a US state with a privacy law, you can also complain to your data-protection authority or attorney general.
Security
Everything travels over HTTPS. Each person's rows in the database can be read only with their own sign-in, a rule the database enforces itself, and there are no passwords to leak. No system is perfect; if a security problem affects your data, we'll tell you as the law requires.
Children
Claridae is for adults: you must be 18 or older to use it. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone younger. If you believe someone under 18 has an account, write to hello@claridae.com and we'll delete it.
Changes to this policy
The date at the top changes whenever this page does. If a change matters, such as a new company that receives your journal or a new use for it, we'll email account holders before it takes effect. The Terms cover the rest of how Claridae works.
