1. Information We Collect
When you visit the website, our hosting, security, and infrastructure providers may process technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages visited, approximate location, request timestamps, error logs, and security logs.
If you contact us, request help, report a bug, ask a pre-sale question, or submit a support request, we may collect your name, email address, message content, product version, masked license key, NinjaTrader 8 version, Windows version, screenshots, logs, and any other information you choose to provide.
When checkout opens, payments are expected to be handled through Stripe. We do not intend to collect or store full credit card numbers ourselves.
2. License Activation and Machine Binding
CustomChartTrader uses a license activation system to confirm that a license key is valid and to reduce unauthorized key sharing.
When the NinjaTrader 8 client activates or verifies a license, the client may send a license key, machine identifier or hashed workstation fingerprint, product version, activation timestamp, license status request, or deauthorization request.
The machine identifier is used for license activation, license transfer, fraud prevention, and support. It is not intended to collect your brokerage login, full trading history, broker account credentials, or full computer contents.
3. Account Portal and Downloads
If a customer account portal or download area is added, we may process login email address, session information, license status, download eligibility, downloaded package version, download timestamp, and support or account actions.
Future downloads are planned to use gated file delivery, potentially through Cloudflare R2 or related Cloudflare services. Download requests may create infrastructure logs such as IP address, user agent, file requested, and timestamp.
4. Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect
- Brokerage passwords
- Full payment card numbers
- Social Security numbers or national ID numbers
- Full trading account statements
- Complete trading history
- Live order flow sent to your broker

6. Cookies, Analytics, and Similar Technologies

As of this draft, the current website does not show an implemented marketing analytics or advertising cookie stack. If analytics, retargeting, affiliate tracking, session replay, heatmaps, or non-essential tracking cookies are added later, the website should include updated cookie disclosures and any consent controls required by applicable law before those tools are enabled.

8. Data Retention and Security
We keep information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or allowed by law.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.
No website, API, database, or internet transmission is perfectly secure. You are responsible for protecting your license key, email account, workstation, NinjaTrader installation, and brokerage credentials.
