ExecutionIQ Privacy Policy

Last updated:

This privacy policy explains what information ExecutionIQ collects when you use our trading journal, how we use it, which providers process it, and the choices you have. We have kept it specific to what the product actually does.

1. Who we are

ExecutionIQ is a behavioral trading journal available at executioniq.pro. It is built and operated by VerdictIQ, based in South Carolina, United States. In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” mean VerdictIQ as the operator of ExecutionIQ.

For any privacy question or request, email hello@verdictiq.org.

2. Information we collect

Account information

When you sign up, our authentication provider, Clerk, collects your email address and sign-in details. We store your email address, your first name if you give it, and the preferences you set, such as your timezone, currency and trading style.

Trade and journal data you enter

The core of ExecutionIQ is the information you choose to log. This can include symbols, trade direction, entry and exit prices and times, stop loss and take profit levels, position size, risk, profit and loss, commissions, trading session, notes, setups, tags, tagged mistakes, emotional state and other psychology entries, journal entries, goals, challenges, playbook entries and account balance snapshots. We also store the execution scores and analytics we calculate from that data.

Chart screenshots

You can attach chart screenshots to a trade in JPG, PNG or WebP format. We store these image files with our storage provider.

Imported files and alerts

You can import trades by uploading a CSV file, including exports from Tradovate, TopStep, TradeStation and Interactive Brokers. We read the trades in the file and save them to your journal. ExecutionIQ does not connect to your brokerage account and never asks for your broker login. If you set up a TradingView alert, the alerts you send to your private webhook link are saved as trades.

Billing information

Payments are processed by Stripe. Stripe collects your card and billing details directly. We receive and store your Stripe customer and subscription identifiers, your plan, your subscription status and your renewal date. We do not receive or store your full card number.

Usage and device information

We use Google Tag Manager to load Google Analytics. It records things like pages viewed, clicks on navigation and buttons, video plays, and a few product events: starting the trade form, logging a trade (including the symbol, direction and result of that trade), and the plan name when you complete a purchase. Our hosting provider also processes standard request data, such as your IP address and browser type, to deliver and protect the site.

3. How we use your information

We use the information above to:

  • run your account and show you your journal, scores, analytics and reports
  • generate AI trade reviews and pattern insights when you ask for them
  • process subscriptions, free trials and payments
  • send you email about your account, such as a welcome email, getting started tips, weekly and monthly performance reports, trial ending reminders and payment problems
  • let us know when a new account or paid subscription is created
  • keep the service secure, fix problems and prevent abuse
  • understand how people use the site so we can improve it

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your trade data to show you advertising.

4. AI features and what we send to Claude

ExecutionIQ uses Anthropic's Claude API for two features. Nothing is sent to Anthropic unless you use one of them.

  • AI trade review.When you request a review of a trade, we send that trade's details: symbol, direction, session, setup, entry, exit and stop prices, profit and loss, result, notes, execution score, psychology entries and tagged mistakes. We also send a short summary of recurring patterns from your recent closed trades, such as your most frequent mistakes, and up to three of the chart screenshots attached to that trade.
  • AI pattern detection. We send aggregated statistics from your last 90 days of closed trades, such as win rates grouped by weekday, emotional state, setup and session.

We do not include your name or email address in these requests. The review or insight that comes back is saved to your account. Anthropic processes this data as our service provider under its own commercial terms and privacy policy.

5. Service providers we share data with

We share information only with the companies that help us run ExecutionIQ, and only what each one needs to do its job:

  • Clerk for sign-up, sign-in and account security.
  • Stripe for payments, subscriptions and the billing portal.
  • Neon for the database that holds your account and trade records.
  • Vercel for hosting the site and storing chart screenshots.
  • Anthropic for the AI features described above.
  • Resend for sending email.
  • Google for Tag Manager and Analytics.

We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect our rights or the safety of others, or as part of a sale or transfer of the business, in which case this policy would continue to apply to your information.

6. Cookies and analytics

When you sign in, Clerk sets cookies that keep you signed in and protect your session. These are needed for the app to work. Google Analytics sets its own cookies to count visits and measure how the site is used.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although the app will not work if you block the sign-in cookies. You can opt out of Google Analytics with Google's opt-out browser add-on.

7. Screenshots and sharing

Chart screenshots are stored at long, unlisted web addresses. They are not published or indexed anywhere, but anyone who has the exact link to an image can open it. Please avoid uploading images that show information you would not want others to see, such as account numbers or personal details.

If you use a feature that shares part of your journal with someone else, such as a mentor, that person can see the data you chose to include until you revoke the share or it expires.

8. How long we keep data and how to delete it

We keep your account information and trade records for as long as your account is active, so your journal history stays available to you.

You can delete your account at any time from the Settings page. This deletes your login and removes your account and trade records from our database. A few things are handled separately:

  • Uploaded screenshot files are held by our storage provider. Email us and we will remove any that remain after you delete your account.
  • Deleting your account does not cancel a paid subscription. Cancel it first from Settings, Manage Billing, or email us.
  • Stripe keeps its own payment records, and Google keeps analytics data under its own retention settings.
  • Copies may remain in our providers' backups for a limited period.

You can also ask us to delete your account and data by emailing hello@verdictiq.org.

9. Your choices and rights

You can:

  • view and edit most of your information directly in the app
  • ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • ask us to correct information that is wrong
  • ask us to delete your information
  • ask us to stop sending you report and tips emails

Email hello@verdictiq.org with your request. We may need to confirm that the account is yours before we act on it. Depending on where you live, including California and the European Economic Area, you may have additional rights under local law, and we will honor requests as that law requires. We will not treat you differently for making a request.

10. Security

The site is served over HTTPS. Access to your journal requires you to be signed in, and the app checks that the records you request belong to your account. Payment details are handled by Stripe rather than stored by us. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you think your account has been compromised, contact us right away.

11. Children

ExecutionIQ is meant for adults. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Our Terms of Service require users to be at least 18. If you believe a child has given us information, email us and we will delete it.

12. Where data is processed

We are based in the United States, and our service providers may process your information in the United States and other countries. By using ExecutionIQ, you understand that your information may be processed outside the country where you live.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the product changes. When we do, we will change the date at the top of this page. If a change is significant, we will also let account holders know by email or in the app.
