Effective 20 October 2026. How Stock Atlas collects, uses and protects personal information in connection with Stock Atlas.
Stock Atlas is the controller of personal information described here. Contact: support@stockatlas.com.
We do not ask for and do not want your brokerage credentials, account numbers, positions, trades or holdings. The Service has no facility to receive them. Do not send them to us.
We do not currently process payments, and the free trial needs no card. When paid plans open, payment data will be handled by a payment processor, we will never see full card details, and we will update this policy before that happens.
| Purpose | Legal basis (UK/EU GDPR) |
|---|---|
| Create and operate your account | Performance of a contract |
| Authenticate requests and enforce rate limits | Performance of a contract; legitimate interests |
| Detect abuse, protect the Service and other users | Legitimate interests |
| Diagnose errors and improve reliability | Legitimate interests |
| Understand which features are used, in aggregate | Legitimate interests; consent where cookies require it |
| Send service notices (outages, material changes) | Performance of a contract |
| Comply with law and respond to lawful requests | Legal obligation |
Where we rely on legitimate interests, we have weighed those against your rights and use the least intrusive means we reasonably can.
We recognise that what you query can reveal commercially sensitive information — which companies you are researching, and what you are looking for. We therefore commit that:
We do not sell personal information. We share it only with service providers who process it on our instructions:
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Amazon Web Services | Hosting, database and backups | United States |
| Sentry | Error monitoring and diagnostics | United States / EU |
| Sign-in with Google; analytics, if enabled | United States | |
| Anthropic, OpenAI | AI assistant features, where you use them | United States |
If you use an AI assistant feature on this site, the content of your messages is sent to the relevant model provider to generate a response. Do not enter anything in those features you would not want transmitted to a third party.
Connecting the Service to an external AI client — Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or similar — means that client sends your queries to us and returns our responses to its own platform. That platform's handling of your data is governed by its privacy policy, not this one.
We may also disclose information where required by law, to enforce our terms, or in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, in which case we will give notice before your information becomes subject to a different policy.
The Service is hosted in the United States. If you access it from outside the US, your information will be transferred to and processed there, under laws that may differ from those where you live. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.
We use a small number of cookies and similar storage:
You can block cookies in your browser, but the Service will not work properly without the strictly necessary ones.
We use HTTPS throughout, store passwords only as salted hashes, restrict administrative access, keep encrypted backups, and apply security updates automatically. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If a breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and any relevant regulator as required by law.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, port, restrict or object to our processing of your personal information, and to withdraw consent where we rely on it. To exercise any of these, email support@stockatlas.com. We will respond within the time the applicable law allows, normally one month.
UK and EU residents may lodge a complaint with their local data protection authority.
California residents have rights under the CCPA/CPRA to know what we collect, to delete it, to correct it, and to opt out of sale or sharing. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined, and we do not use it for cross-context behavioural advertising. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
The Service is not directed to anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
We do not make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about you based solely on automated processing. Automated rate limiting may temporarily restrict request volume; you can contact us to have that reviewed.
We may update this policy. If a change materially affects how we handle your personal information, we will notify you by email or a notice on the site before it takes effect. The effective date at the top always reflects the current version.
