Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Strategy Archive ("we," "us," "our") collects, uses, discloses, stores, and otherwise processes personal information when you access or use our website, applications, content, features, communications, and related services (the "Services").
1. Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to account registration and sign-in, profiles, strategies, comments, saved content, trading records, AI chart review, support emails, and cookies and similar technologies on Strategy Archive. Davide Rogai, based in Italy, is the data controller and independent operator of this website.
2. Personal Information We Collect
Depending on how you interact with the Services, we may collect the following categories of personal information:
2.1 Information You Provide Directly
- name
- email address
- username
- authentication details handled by Supabase
- profile information
- messages, support requests, and communications
- comments, strategies, uploads, and other content
- preferences and account settings
2.2 Information Collected Automatically
- IP address
- browser type and version
- device identifiers
- operating system
- referral URLs
- language settings
- pages viewed and features used
- clicks, interaction data, and session data
- timestamps
- diagnostics, crash logs, and performance info
- approximate location inferred from IP
- cookie IDs and similar identifiers
2.3 Information From Third Parties
We may receive personal information from:
- Google Analytics, where you have consented to analytics;
- Google sign-in, if you choose it, including the profile details provided during authentication through Supabase;
- CookieYes, which records cookie choices and consent-related information;
- Google AdSense, for advertising reporting and consent-dependent advertising;
- Adsterra, for consent-dependent advertising and ad-performance reporting on School articles and the Trading Calculator;
- other users when they interact with your public strategies or profile.
2.4 AI Features
When you use the AI Market Analyzer, our server verifies your account through Supabase and processes your chart screenshot, selected market and timeframe, generated analysis, and request metadata. The screenshot and chart-analysis context are sent to OpenAI to generate the review. We do not send your Supabase account identifier to OpenAI as part of that request.
You should not upload screenshots or files containing sensitive personal information, account numbers, broker account details, full names, addresses, financial account credentials, private keys, passwords, or other confidential information.
3. How We Collect Personal Information
We collect personal information:
- directly from you when you provide it;
- automatically through necessary logs and, with your consent, Google Analytics cookies and similar technologies;
- from the authentication, consent, and advertising services described in this policy.
4. How We Use Personal Information
We may use personal information to:
- provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Services;
- create and manage user accounts;
- authenticate users and secure accounts;
- process user requests;
- provide customer support;
- communicate with you about the Services;
- send service-related notices and updates;
- remember service preferences and cookie choices;
- analyze usage, performance, and trends;
- prevent fraud, abuse, unauthorized access, and other harmful activity;
- enforce our Terms and policies;
- comply with legal obligations;
- establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
- moderate public content and handle corrections or reports;
- provide AI screenshot review and educational analysis when you request it;
- display and measure advertising subject to your consent choices.
5. Legal Bases for Processing
For users covered by the GDPR, the legal basis depends on the purpose. Accepting optional cookies is separate from registering an account or requesting support.
| Purpose | Data involved | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Accounts and requested features | Email, authentication, profile, published content, saved items, trading records, and requested AI review inputs. | Performance of the service contract or steps you request before entering it: Article 6(1)(b). |
| Support, security, and moderation | Support messages, technical logs, access metadata, abuse reports, and rate-limit records. | Legitimate interests in answering inquiries and keeping the service secure: Article 6(1)(f), balanced against your rights. |
| Analytics and optional advertising | Google Analytics usage data and identifiers; advertising cookies and personalization data where enabled. | Your consent: Article 6(1)(a), together with the applicable cookie-consent rules. |
| Consent records and legal requests | Cookie choices, consent records, and information needed to handle data-protection or legal requests. | Compliance with applicable legal obligations: Article 6(1)(c). |
| Legal claims | Relevant records needed for a specific dispute or claim. | Legitimate interests in establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims, or a legal obligation where applicable. |
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We may use cookies, pixels, local storage, SDKs, tags, and similar technologies to:
- operate core site functionality;
- remember user preferences;
- keep users logged in;
- secure the Services;
- analyze traffic and performance;
- understand usage patterns;
- measure campaigns;
- personalize content and marketing where applicable.
Google Analytics is our only web analytics service. Google Tag Manager deploys the Google and CookieYes tags. Google AdSense is used for advertising. School articles and the Trading Calculator also use Adsterra banner, popunder, and Social Bar advertising. Adsterra provides ad measurement, not a second website analytics dashboard. CookieYes manages consent choices and, where enabled, the IAB advertising-vendor preference panel. A Google Funding Choices cookie may remain from an earlier consent setup; CookieYes manages current preferences.
Optional analytics and advertising storage is denied by default until a consent choice is available. CookieYes communicates your choices to Google Consent Mode. Depending on Google's tag configuration, limited consent-status or cookieless measurement requests may still occur while storage is denied; refusing cookies does not mean that every network request is stopped.
Adsterra tags do not load until CookieYes reports advertising consent. Their delivery domains include bauval.org and abscloud.org; advertisements may contact further partners. Advertising requests can disclose IP address, browser and device details, the page URL, identifiers, and ad interactions. Our integration does not explicitly pass account details, chart uploads, or calculator input values to Adsterra as an advertising payload.
A first-party notice-version record also distinguishes a new advertising choice from a preference saved before Adsterra was introduced. This record contains no visitor identifier and does not override CookieYes: rejected, expired, or missing advertising consent keeps the ads blocked. See the Cookie Policy for this local-storage record and its removal.
Popunder ads may open another tab or window after an interaction, and Social Bar ads may display overlays. Withdrawing advertising consent after these page scripts start reloads the document to stop active scripts; it does not automatically close previously opened advertising tabs. Calculator inputs may need to be re-entered after a reload.
You can accept, reject, or customize optional cookies and change or withdraw consent at any time. Necessary authentication and security storage is not used for optional advertising. Withdrawal changes future processing and does not undo lawful processing that already occurred.
See our Cookie Policy for the cookie inventory, durations, providers, and browser controls. Google Analytics identifiers are pseudonymous; they should not be described as inherently anonymous.
7. How We Disclose Personal Information
The providers used by the website have different roles. Some process data on our behalf; others also process data under their own policies.
| Provider | Role and information | Provider information |
|---|---|---|
| Netlify | Website hosting, server functions, delivery, and operational logs, including request metadata such as IP addresses. | Netlify privacy notice |
| Supabase | Accounts, authentication, profiles, strategies, comments, trading records, and uploaded profile or strategy images. Cloudflare provides security for Supabase endpoints. | Supabase privacy policy |
| Analytics and advertising according to consent; Tag Manager; optional Google sign-in; Gmail for messages you send to our support address. | Google privacy policy | |
| Adsterra | Banner, popunder, and Social Bar advertising on School articles and the Trading Calculator after advertising consent; request metadata, identifiers, and ad interaction data may be processed by Adsterra and its advertising partners. | Adsterra privacy policy |
| CookieYes | Consent choices, consent identifiers and records, and the technical information needed to operate the consent service. | CookieYes privacy policy |
| OpenAI | Chart screenshots and analysis context, only when you request AI screenshot review. | OpenAI API data controls |
Capital.com supplies candle data for the market and timeframe selected in the analyzer. Our market-data request does not include your screenshot, Supabase account identifier, or email address.
Your published profile, strategies, and comments are visible to other users. External broker, prop-firm, book, or other affiliate links take you to third-party services, which process visits under their own policies.
We may also disclose personal information where necessary to protect rights, safety, property, systems, users, or the public.
8. Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising
We do not sell your account or contact information for money.
However, some laws define "sale," "sharing," or targeted advertising broadly. Our use of Google AdSense, Adsterra, and their advertising partners may be considered "sharing" or targeted advertising under applicable law. Adsterra's Social Bar is an advertising format, not our installation of a social-network tracking pixel.
Where applicable, users may have the right to opt out of such practices by using available settings, consent tools, or by contacting us at support.strategyarchive@gmail.com.
9. Data Retention
We use the following retention criteria. Cookie expiry and the retention of data held by a provider are separate matters.
| Data | Retention period or criterion |
|---|---|
| Account and community records | Retained while your account is active and needed for requested features. You can request deletion in account settings or by email. Public uploads, backups, and any records needed for a legal or security reason may require separate removal or retention. |
| Support emails | Kept while needed to answer and follow up on your request, handle a related dispute, or meet an applicable legal obligation. You can ask us to review or delete a conversation. |
| Consent cookies and records | Cookie lifetimes are listed in the Cookie Policy. Consent records may be retained as needed to demonstrate and respect the choices you made and comply with accountability obligations. |
| Google Analytics | Our property is configured to retain event data for 2 months and user data for 14 months. Where Google's reset-on-activity option is enabled, new activity can reset the user-data retention period. Standard aggregated reports are not subject to the same retention limit; cookie expiry alone does not delete existing reports. You can contact us to request deletion. |
| Adsterra advertising data | Adsterra's published policy uses purpose-based retention criteria rather than one fixed period for all advertising data. Cookie duration and partner retention depend on the advertisement and provider involved; consult the provider policy linked above or contact us for a specific request. |
| AI screenshot inputs and results | Processed for the current request; the analyzer does not save screenshots or outputs to our Supabase database. OpenAI may retain content and metadata in abuse-monitoring logs for up to 30 days by default, with longer retention for applicable legal or safety exceptions. |
| Operational and security records | Hosting and authentication logs follow the provider's configured retention. Relevant records may be kept while needed to investigate an incident, handle a claim, or satisfy a legal obligation. The analyzer uses temporary server-memory counters to limit requests. |
For a deletion request, email support.strategyarchive@gmail.com. We assess which active records, stored media, and provider-held data are involved rather than treating browser cookie deletion as deletion of your account.
10. International Data Transfers
Our providers may process data outside Italy and the EEA, including in the United States and other locations described in their policies. Provider data-processing agreements and applicable transfer mechanisms, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or an applicable adequacy decision, govern transfers where required. We do not claim that all website data remains in Italy or the EEA. You may contact us for information about the safeguards relevant to your data.
11. Security
We use reasonable technical, organizational, and administrative measures designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission, storage, or security is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
12. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to:
- request access to your personal information;
- request correction of inaccurate information;
- request deletion of personal information;
- request data portability;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to processing;
- withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- opt out of certain sale, sharing, or targeted advertising practices;
- appeal certain privacy-related decisions.
To exercise any applicable rights, contact us at support.strategyarchive@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.
13. Children
The Services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children below that age. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
14. User-Generated and Public Content
If you post content publicly through the Services, that information may be visible to others and may remain publicly accessible even after deletion or account closure due to reposts, backups, caching, legal obligations, or technical limitations.
15. Third-Party Services
The Services may link to or integrate with third-party websites, tools, or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and you should review their policies separately.
16. AI Features
The AI Market Analyzer sends your screenshot and chart context to OpenAI's API. The request uses the API's non-stored-response option; this does not disable OpenAI's separate abuse-monitoring retention. OpenAI states that API inputs and outputs are not used for model training by default unless the API customer opts in. See the official OpenAI data controls for retention and image-safety exceptions. AI outputs may be inaccurate or incomplete and are not financial advice.
We do not intentionally require users to provide sensitive personal information to use AI chart analysis features. Users should remove or hide confidential information from screenshots before uploading them.
If you contact us about AI features or request updates, you can ask us to delete that communication at any time, subject to legal or security retention needs.
17. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting a revised version on the Services. The updated version becomes effective when posted or on the stated effective date.
