Privacy Policy

Welcome to TheTraderStack ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website, thetraderstack.com, or subscribe to our newsletter.

By accessing or using our Service, you signify that you have read, understood, and agree to our collection, storage, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.

1. Information We Collect

We believe in minimalism. We only collect the data necessary to provide you with the best prop firm comparisons and newsletter services.

• Personal Data You Provide: The only personal data we directly collect is your email address when you voluntarily subscribe to our "Weekly Alpha" newsletter or contact us via email.
• Usage Data (Automated): When you visit the site, we may automatically collect certain information about your device, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and how you interact with our comparison tables (e.g., which filters you use). This data is anonymized and used solely to improve our user experience.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for specific, legitimate business purposes:

• To send emails: If you subscribe, we use your email to send you weekly updates, flash sale alerts, and educational content via our provider, Resend.
• To improve our platform: We analyze usage data to understand which prop firms are trending and which features (like filters or sorting) are most valuable to our users.
• To maintain security: To monitor and prevent fraudulent activity or abuse of our website.

3. Affiliate Disclosure & Third-Party Links

TheTraderStack operates as an affiliate marketing website. This is a core part of our business model and transparency is key:

Comparison Links: Many of the links to Prop Trading Firms on our site are "affiliate links." This means that if you click on a "Get Deal" button and purchase an evaluation account, we may receive a commission at no extra cost to you. In fact, our links often apply a discount code automatically.

Third-Party Responsibility: Once you click a link and leave TheTraderStack, you are subject to the privacy policy of that specific Prop Firm. We do not control, and are not responsible for, the data practices of third-party websites (e.g., Apex Trader Funding, Topstep, etc.).

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Service and hold certain information.

• Essential Cookies: Necessary for the website to function (e.g., remembering your search filters temporarily).
• Analytics Cookies: We may use tools like Vercel Analytics or Google Analytics to understand traffic sources. These are aggregated and do not identify you personally.

5. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored securely using industry-standard providers. Our website is hosted on Vercel, and our email list is managed by Resend. Both providers employ high-standard encryption and security measures. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

6. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Whether you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), California, or elsewhere, we respect your rights regarding your data:

• The right to access: You can ask us for copies of your personal data.
• The right to rectification: You can ask us to correct any information you believe is inaccurate.
• The right to erasure: You can request that we delete your email address from our database at any time by clicking "Unsubscribe" in any email or contacting us directly.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last updated.
