Plain-English version: we help you protect your capital — not harvest your data. Here's exactly what we collect and what we never do.
Last updated: August 5, 2026
GuardMyTrade is operated by Adroit Consulting Services LLC ("GuardMyTrade," "we," "us"), which makes a trading self-discipline app that enforces the rules you set for yourself. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the things we deliberately never do.
When you create an account we collect your email address, and optionally your name and phone number, so we can sign you in, sync your settings across devices, and contact you about your account.
To enforce your rules, you connect a brokerage account. We never see or store your broker password. Where a broker supports it, we use secure authorization (OAuth) so you log in with the broker directly. Connection credentials and access tokens are encrypted and stored on your own device, not exposed to us.
We read your positions, orders, and profit/loss solely to detect when a rule is broken and to place closing orders when a limit is hit. We do not warehouse your full trading history on our servers.
We collect minimal technical information (for example, lock events, error diagnostics, and device sync status) needed to run the service and keep your protections working across devices.
We use the information above only to: enforce the rules you configure; lock and unlock your trading and flatten positions when a limit is reached; sync your status across your devices; notify an accountability partner you designate when a rule is broken; provide support; and keep the service secure and reliable.
Broker credentials and access tokens are encrypted at rest — you connect through your broker's own login or a token you can revoke, and your broker password is never seen or stored by us. Access to your account is mediated by the app; we design the system so a moment of frustration can't quietly hand your data or your money to anyone. No system is perfectly secure, but protecting your account is the entire point of the product.
Your product data, personally identifiable information (PII), broker credentials, and journal are deleted immediately on final closure, and stored broker authorizations are revoked. We retain only allowlisted pseudonymized billing, admin, security, enforcement, and unlock-grant audit records for 7 years. We retain a keyed anti-bypass identity and broker digest until the later of any active lock expiry or 30 days after closure. Closure is final, with no reopening grace period. A documented legal hold may extend pseudonymized audit records only; it cannot extend retention of product data, PII, broker credentials, the journal, or the anti-bypass digest beyond the stated period. No other records are retained.
GuardMyTrade is intended for adults (18+) who trade their own accounts. It is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18.
We may update this policy as the product evolves. Material changes will be reflected by the "last updated" date above, and where appropriate we'll notify you in the app or by email.
