Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 14, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Stacked ("Stacked," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website, dashboard, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
1. Information We Collect
- Account information: name, email address, and password (stored as a bcrypt hash, never in plain text).
- Chart images and analysis data you upload or request, including ticker symbols, timeframes, and indicator settings.
- Brokerage connection information, such as the provider you connect (e.g. Alpaca or Interactive Brokers) and the credentials or API keys needed to place orders on your behalf.
- Billing information handled by Stripe (Stacked does not store full payment card numbers).
- Usage data, such as pages visited and features used, to help us maintain and improve the Service.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to provide and improve the Service, generate chart and portfolio analysis, process subscription payments, operate automatic trading features you enable, communicate with you about your account, and maintain the security of the Service.
3. AI Processing
Chart images and other data you submit for analysis are sent to Anthropic's Claude API to generate the AI-powered analysis and portfolio recommendations shown in the Service. This data is transmitted securely and used solely to generate your requested output.
4. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with the service providers necessary to operate Stacked:
- Stripe — to process subscription billing and payments.
- Brokerage providers (e.g. Alpaca, Interactive Brokers) — to place trades on connected accounts you authorize.
- Anthropic — to generate AI-powered chart and portfolio analysis.
We may also disclose information if required to do so by law.
5. Data Security
We use industry-standard measures to protect your information, including encryption of data in transit and bcrypt hashing of passwords. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Data Retention
We retain your account and analysis data for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide the Service and comply with our legal obligations. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time.
7. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below.
8. Cookies and Tracking
We use essential cookies to keep you signed in and to operate core features of the Service. We do not use third-party advertising trackers.
9. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. International Users
If you access the Service from outside the country in which our servers are located, your information may be transferred to and processed in that country.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice through the Service or by email. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
