We implement reasonable, industry-standard security measures to protect your information.

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to provide the App and comply with legal or operational requirements.

Portfolio and simulation data is retained only while your account is active, unless otherwise required for legitimate business purposes.
