PRIVACY POLICY

1. Information We Collect

When you subscribe to Vantage Trade, we collect: your full name, email address, phone number, Telegram username, and payment information (processed securely by Stripe — we never store your full card number). We may also collect device type, browser type, and IP address through standard web analytics.

2. How We Use Your Information

Your information is used exclusively to: provide and deliver the Vantage Trade and VANCE AI service, manage your subscription and billing, grant and revoke access to Telegram channels, send service-related communications, and improve our service quality. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Telegram

Vantage Trade delivers alerts and analysis via Telegram. By subscribing, you authorize us to add your Telegram account to our private channels and to remove your access upon cancellation or non-payment. Your Telegram username and user ID are stored in our subscriber database for access management.

4. Payment Processing

All payment processing is handled by Stripe, Inc. Your payment information is transmitted directly to Stripe using industry-standard encryption. We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or other sensitive payment data on our servers. Please refer to Stripe's privacy policy for their data handling practices.

5. Content Protection

VANCE analysis posts contain invisible watermarking via Unicode variation selectors that embed a unique subscriber identifier. This watermark is invisible during normal reading but enables us to trace content redistribution to the originating subscriber account.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account information for the duration of your subscription and for 12 months after cancellation for billing and legal purposes. You may request deletion of your data by emailing support@vantagetrade.ai.

7. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure.

8. Cookies and Analytics

Our website may use cookies and standard web analytics tools to understand traffic patterns and improve user experience. You may disable cookies in your browser settings.

9. Children's Privacy

Vantage Trade is not intended for use by individuals under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy periodically. Material changes will be communicated to active subscribers via email.
