Privacy Policy

We collect information in the following ways:

• Account Registration & OAuth: When you register directly or authenticate via a third-party OAuth provider (Google, GitHub), we may collect your name, email address, profile picture, and unique provider ID.

• Watchlist & Portfolio Data: Any tickers or portfolio entries you save are stored and associated with your account.

IntelliStock uses third-party large language model (LLM) providers, including Anthropic and OpenAI, to process user queries and generate AI-powered analysis. When you submit a query, your input — along with relevant market context — may be transmitted to these providers for processing.

We do not intentionally transmit personally identifiable information to LLM providers as part of query processing. However, you should avoid including personal or sensitive information in your queries.

These providers are governed by their own privacy policies and data processing agreements. IntelliStock takes reasonable steps to ensure that data shared with these providers is handled in accordance with applicable privacy laws.

Market data displayed on the platform is sourced from third-party providers, including Polygon.io. Your use of the platform may involve data being fetched on your behalf from these providers. IntelliStock does not share your personal information with market data providers as part of normal service operation.

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information, including encrypted data transmission (HTTPS), hashed password storage, and secure OAuth token handling.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security and encourage you to use strong, unique passwords and to notify us immediately of any suspected unauthorized access.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enable core service functionality. This includes:

• Authentication cookies to keep you logged in across sessions
• Anonymous session cookies to track query limits for non-registered users
• Preference cookies to remember your settings

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the service.

Our service integrates with third-party websites and services that are not owned or controlled by IntelliStock, including OAuth providers (Google, GitHub), LLM providers (Anthropic, OpenAI), and market data providers (Polygon.io). We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party services.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with through our platform.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where retention is required by law.

Anonymous session data is retained only for the duration of the session or a short rolling window for rate-limiting purposes.

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal information:

• Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
• Correction: Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information
• Deletion: Request that we delete your personal data
• Withdrawal of consent: Withdraw consent for data processing where consent is the legal basis

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@intellistock.ca. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe in accordance with applicable law.

Our service is not directed at individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action.

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the service following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at support@intellistock.ca.
