Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

The Trade Risk, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information when you visit our website (www.thetraderisk.com), use our products or services, or interact with our communications.

1. Information We Collect

We collect personal and non-personal information in the following ways:

  • Directly from you: when you create an account, purchase a membership, subscribe to a newsletter, or contact us.
  • Automatically: via cookies and analytics that capture usage and device data (e.g., IP address, browser type, pages visited, time on page, referring URLs).
  • From third parties: payment processors, email providers, analytics and hosting platforms.

Examples of data collected include: name, email address, account credentials, membership details, payment data (processed by third parties; we do not store card numbers), and usage/device data.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Provide, maintain, and improve our products and services
  • Process transactions and deliver digital goods
  • Send account notifications, member updates, alerts, and newsletters you subscribe to
  • Personalize content and measure performance
  • Analyze website usage and diagnose issues
  • Comply with legal obligations and prevent misuse or fraud

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies (including analytics and embedded media players) to remember preferences, improve the site, and measure engagement. You can disable cookies in your browser; some features may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

4. AI and Automated Data Processing

Certain features use AI-assisted tools to curate articles, summarize data, generate market context, or create content. We do not use AI to make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about individuals. AI-assisted content is generally reviewed as part of our editorial process, but not every AI-assisted output is individually reviewed before display or distribution.

Certain membership tiers may also allow you to connect your own AI agent or automated system to our content through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), an API, or similar interfaces ("Agent Access"). If you use Agent Access, we log records of that activity — including the requests made and the data returned — associated with an internal account identifier. Any interpretation or output your agent generates from our data is produced by your agent, not by us. Agent Access and the related logging are governed by our Terms of Service and described further in Section 6 (Data Retention).

5. Information Sharing

We share information with service providers that help operate our business (e.g., payment processing, hosting, analytics, email delivery). These providers receive only what they need to perform their services and must protect your data. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal and tax obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods vary by the type of data:

  • Account, membership, and billing records are retained for the life of your account and for a period afterward as needed for tax, accounting, and legal-compliance purposes.
  • Agent Access (MCP) activity logs, applicable only to members who use an Agent Access membership tier, are retained for approximately twenty-four (24) months. These logs record the requests made and the data returned and are associated with an internal account identifier rather than directly with your name or email.
  • Usage and analytics data collected from general site visitors is retained on a shorter, rolling basis.

Separately, we maintain archival records of our own published market and system outputs (currently retained for up to seven years) for business, performance-substantiation, and compliance purposes. These archives reflect what we published and are not linked to individual members or used to identify you.

You may request deletion of your personal data at any time (see Section 7). Please note that we may need to retain certain records — including transaction records and activity logs — for the periods described above or as required by law, even after a deletion request, and certain records are maintained in formats that cannot be altered after creation.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location (for example, California or the European Union), you may have the right to:

  • Access or request a copy of your personal data
  • Request correction or deletion
  • Object to or restrict processing
  • Opt out of marketing communications
  • Request data portability
  • Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

8. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures (including SSL encryption and access controls) to protect your data. No online system is entirely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International Data Transfers

If you access our services from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the U.S., where privacy laws may differ. Where required, we implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers.

10. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to third-party sites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Review the privacy policies of any external site you visit.

11. Children’s Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If you believe we have collected data from a child, please contact us to delete it.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new “Last Updated” date. Your continued use of the site after changes means you accept the revised policy.
