5. Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies, embedded scripts, software development kits (“SDKs”), and other similar technologies, collectively referred to as “Tracking Technologies,” to collect additional personal information automatically as you interact with the Services and to personalize your experience. We may also use these technologies to collect information about your online activities over time and across third-party websites or other online services.

• Recognize you when you return to our Services.
• Show you interest-based advertisements.
• Personalize your user experience.

5.1 Do Not Track

Some Internet browsers, such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari, include the ability to transmit “Do Not Track” or “DNT” signals. Since uniform standards for DNT signals have not been adopted, our Site does not currently process or respond to DNT signals.

5.2 Analytics

We and our third-party technology providers use third-party analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to evaluate your use of the Services, compile reports on activity, collect demographic data, analyze performance metrics, and collect and evaluate other information relating to the Services and Internet usage. These third parties use cookies and other technologies to help analyze and provide us the data.

7. Your Privacy Choices

We offer you certain choices about how we communicate with you and manage what personal information we collect from you.

7.1 Know / Access Your Information

You may request to obtain a copy, or a list of categories of the personal information that we hold about you, as well as supplementary information such as the purposes of processing and the entities to whom we disclose your personal information.

7.2 Delete Your Information

Under certain circumstances, you may have the choice to request that we delete the personal information that we hold about you. This choice is not absolute, and we may refuse such a request if there are compelling legitimate grounds for keeping your personal information, for legitimate purposes, or as required by law. If your deletion request is honored, we may retain a record of your deletion request as required under applicable laws and their exceptions.

7.3 Correct or Update Your Information

If you have created a user account through the Services, you may have the ability to access, update, and correct the personal information you have provided in connection with your account by logging into your account through the Services.

7.4 Marketing Communications

To update your preferences or limit the communications you receive from us, please contact us as specified in the “Contact Us” section. Where provided by law, you may withdraw consent previously provided to us, and we will apply your preferences going forward. You may also choose not to receive marketing communications by clicking the unsubscribe link in our marketing content.

7.5 Managing Analytics

We may use third-party service providers to monitor and analyze use of our Sites, such as Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics service offered by Google LLC that tracks and reports website traffic. You may use available Google Analytics opt-out tools where applicable.

7.6 Managing Interest-Based Advertising

Many advertising companies that collect information for interest-based advertising are members of the Digital Advertising Alliance or the Network Advertising Initiative, both of which maintain websites where people can opt out of interest-based advertising from participating companies. Residents of the European Union may opt out of online behavioral advertising served by participating organizations through available industry tools.

Apple requires app developers to ask for permission before tracking your activity across apps or websites they do not own for advertising measurement or data sharing. If you previously gave our mobile app permission to track, you can disable tracking in iOS or iPadOS settings.

You may also access industry-provided opt-out tools, although they may not be tailored to our mobile applications. Before fulfilling your request, we may be required by law to verify personal information we already have on file to confirm your identity. If we cannot verify your identity, we may request additional information to verify your identity and for security or fraud-prevention purposes.

7.7 Submitting a Request to Exercise Your Choices

You may exercise these choices by emailing us with the subject line “Privacy Choice Request,” or by sending your request via mail to the address provided in the Contact Us section below.

7.8 Mobile Application

When you use our mobile application, we or our third-party marketing partners may use one or more identifiers for your mobile device, including Apple Identifier for Advertising (IDFA) or Android Advertising ID (AAID), to target and deliver ads to you in our app or other apps. This means that your device identifier may be accessed by third-party ad networks and used to help manage ads, track install sources, identify interests and behavior, and target advertising based on those interests and behavior.

If you have an Android device running Android 12 or above, you can delete your AAID permanently by opening Settings, navigating to Privacy > Ads, tapping “Delete advertising ID,” and confirming the action. This will prevent apps on your phone from accessing it in the future. If you do so, you may still see advertisements, but they will not be tailored to your inferred interests.

8. International Transfers

When you access or use our Services, your personal information may be processed in the United States or any other country in which Stocks.Markets, its affiliates, or service providers maintain facilities. Such countries or jurisdictions may have data protection laws that are less protective than the laws of the jurisdiction in which you reside. If you do not want your information transferred to, processed, or maintained outside of the country or jurisdiction where you are located, you should immediately stop accessing or using the Services.

For Canadian privacy matters, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at 1-800-282-1376 or visit priv.gc.ca.

We may continue to process personal data if necessary for the defense of legal claims or for other exceptions permitted by applicable law.

9.3 International Transfer of Your Personal Information

We rely primarily on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses to facilitate the international and onward transfer of personal information collected in the EEA, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, to the extent the businesses receiving the European Personal Information are located in a country that the European Countries consider to not provide an adequate level of data protection. We may also rely on an adequacy decision of the relevant regulatory body confirming an adequate level of data protection in the jurisdiction of the party receiving the information, or derogations in specific situations.

10. Data Security

We believe that reasonable measures, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, as required by state and/or federal law, should be used to protect information about you from loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We cannot guarantee the security of our databases or the databases of third parties with which we may share information to perform business purposes, nor can we guarantee that information you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted over the internet. If you feel that the security of any account you might have with us has been compromised, you should contact us immediately as described below.

11. Integration of Third-Party Platforms and Services

The Services may be linked to, rely on, and be integrated with websites, applications, interfaces, services, and platforms operated by other companies, including third-party services. The Services may also feature advertisements from these companies.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of such websites, applications, interfaces, services, and platforms operated by third parties that are linked to, rely on, or are integrated with the Services, or for the privacy practices of third-party advertising companies. Once you leave our Services via a link, access a third-party service, or click on an advertisement, you should check the applicable privacy policies to determine how related companies process personal information they may collect about you. This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by Stocks.Markets.
