Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 2026
AnalystEdge collects as little personal data as it can get away with. This page lists everything we store about you and what we do with it, in plain English.
1. Data we store
For each account we keep:
- your email address (used to sign in and for essential account messages);
- a salted hash of your password — never the password itself;
- when the account was created;
- your subscription plan and status (free or premium, renewal date);
- a Stripe customer ID and subscription ID, plus whether the subscription is set to renew or cancel at the period end, if you have ever subscribed.
That's it. We don't ask for your name or address, we don't build advertising profiles, and we never sell or share your data with third parties for marketing.
2. Payments (what Stripe handles)
All payments are processed by Stripe. When you subscribe, your card number goes directly from your browser to Stripe — it never touches our servers, and we cannot see it. Stripe tells us only the things we need to run your subscription: a customer ID, the subscription status and the current period end. Stripe processes your payment data under its own privacy policy.
3. Cookies and local storage
We set exactly one cookie: an httpOnly session cookie that keeps you signed in. It is not readable by JavaScript and is not used for tracking. If you switch between dark and light mode, that preference is saved in your browser's local storage — it never leaves your device. There are no third-party trackers, no advertising pixels and no cross-site analytics on this site.
4. Analytics
We measure how the site is used ourselves, on our own server, without cookies and without third parties — and we store only aggregate numbers, never individual profiles. That covers: how many times each page was viewed per day; an approximate daily visitor count derived from a salted hash that rotates every day (so it cannot identify you, be reversed to your IP address, or link your visits across days); which external sites referred visitors; how long pages stay visible on screen; anonymous session shapes (which page a visit started and ended on, counted under a random per-tab id that is discarded when you close the tab and is never connected to your account); which dashboard features get used (tabs, filters, exports — counted by feature name only); and search terms typed into the stock screener, sanitized and aggregated (e.g. "NVDA was searched 12 times"). What you type anywhere else — sign-in forms, passwords, email addresses — is never recorded. Your IP address and browser details are never stored. If your browser sends the Do Not Track signal, none of this is collected at all.
5. Data retention and deletion
We keep your account data for as long as your account exists. If you want your account deleted, email us from the address on the account and we will remove it, including your email and password hash. Billing records held by Stripe may be retained longer where tax and accounting rules require it.
