Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how SPT Analytics (the “Web App/Extension”, “we”, “our”, “us”) handles user data.

1. Data Collection

The Web App/Extension does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data, browsing activity, or identifiable user information to external servers.

• No analytics, advertising, or tracking pixels are used.
• No background data collection or telemetry occurs.
• No personal financial information is ever requested or transmitted.

2. Stored Information

Any information you provide (such as Alpaca API credentials, preferences, or symbol lists) is stored locally in your browser using Chrome’s secure chrome.storage.sync API.

These values remain under your control and can be removed anytime via the Settings page, by uninstalling the packaged browser extension, or by clearing stored site data when you use the web app.

3. External Data Sources

The Web App/Extension retrieves financial and technical data from secure HTTPS APIs only when you request analysis.

Data requests are made to:

• paper-api.alpaca.markets and data.alpaca.markets — primary stock and market data
• finance.yahoo.com — secondary source for fallback and fundamental information

4. Permissions

The following Chrome permissions are used:

• storage — to save user preferences and API keys locally
• cookies — for Yahoo session crumbs to access fundamental data
• tabs and scripting — for controlled data fetch execution

5. No Third-Party Sharing

No information is shared with third parties. The Web App/Extension operates entirely client-side.

6. User Control

You can reset or delete all stored data from the Settings view, by uninstalling the browser extension, or by clearing stored site data for the web app.

7. Security

All requests use HTTPS, and credentials are never sent to unauthorized domains. Still, users are responsible for keeping their Alpaca API keys confidential.

8. Contact

If you have privacy questions, email info@panditconsulting.com or use the Chrome Web Store support link when you use the packaged browser extension.
