Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 11, 2026
1. Data Controller
The data controller responsible for your personal data is:
ACCE Investments
Email: [email protected]
Website: acceinvestments.com
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal data when you use the ACCE Investments platform (the "Service"), in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 ("GDPR") and applicable national data protection laws.
2. Personal Data We Collect
2.1 Data you provide directly
Account information: email address, full name, and password (hashed) when you register. Payment information: billing details processed by Stripe; we do not store credit card numbers on our servers. Profile preferences: alert preferences, followed indices and stocks, and display settings. Portfolio data: stock transactions you manually enter, including ticker, date, shares, price, and optional notes. Contact communications: any messages you send to us via email.
Portfolio sharing: when you share a portfolio publicly via a share token, the recipients see the holdings and notes you have chosen to make visible. When you invite a collaborator by email, that email address is stored on the invitation record and shared with the invited party only.
2.2 Data imported from broker connections (optional, opt-in)
If you choose to connect a brokerage account via our SnapTrade integration (currently in beta), SnapTrade returns to us a read-only feed of your positions, executed transactions, account balances, and account metadata for the accounts you authorise. We use this data to populate the portfolio tracker on your behalf. We do not initiate trades, hold funds, or modify any account state.
Broker connection metadata stored by ACCE is limited to: the connection identifier returned by SnapTrade, your encrypted SnapTrade userSecret (encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest), the broker name, and the connection status. The brokerage credentials themselves never reach ACCE servers; they are entered into SnapTrade's OAuth flow directly.
You can disconnect a broker at any time from Settings > Connections. Disconnection revokes SnapTrade's access and stops further data refresh; previously-imported transactions remain in your portfolio tracker for historical continuity unless you delete them.
2.3 Data collected automatically
Usage data: pages visited, features used, timestamps, and interaction patterns. Device and technical data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution, and referring URL. Authentication data: session tokens and authentication state managed by Supabase. When you are signed in, this usage data may be linked to your account so we can understand how registered users use the Service.
2.4 Affiliate click events
When you click an outbound link to one of our brokerage partners, we log the partner identifier, the source page, your account ID if you are signed in, your user-agent string, and a salted daily hash of your IP address. We do not store the plaintext IP. We use this data solely to (a) detect fraudulent or automated clicks, (b) reconcile commissions reported by partners, and (c) understand which content drives broker sign-ups. The salt rotates daily, so hashes cannot be linked across days. This processing relies on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) in operating and funding the Service. We do not share this data with advertising networks.
2.5 Data we do not collect
We do not collect special categories of personal data (such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or biometric data). We do not collect data from minors; the Service is restricted to users aged 18 and over. We do not access your brokerage accounts unless you explicitly opt in to a SnapTrade broker connection (see section 2.2), and even then we receive only the read-only feed described above.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal data under the following legal bases as defined in Article 6 of the GDPR:
Contract performance (Art. 6(1)(b)): Processing necessary to provide the Service, manage your account, process payments, deliver subscription content, and maintain the portfolio tracker.
Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): Processing for platform security, fraud prevention, service improvement, analytics to understand usage patterns, and communication about Service updates. Our legitimate interest is balanced against your rights and does not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): Where required, such as for marketing emails, optional cookies, and non-essential analytics. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): Processing necessary to comply with applicable tax, accounting, and legal requirements.
4. How We Use Your Data
We use your personal data to: provide, operate, and maintain the Service and your account; process subscription payments and manage billing; deliver personalised content based on your followed indices and stocks; send transactional emails (account confirmations, password resets, payment receipts); send alert and digest emails based on your configured preferences; compute and display portfolio analytics based on data you provide; improve the Service through aggregate usage analytics; detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents; and comply with legal obligations.
5. Data Sharing and Third-Party Processors
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party. We share data only with the following categories of processors, each bound by data processing agreements:
Supabase (infrastructure & authentication): Hosts our database and manages authentication. Supabase processes account data and usage data on servers located in the EU (AWS eu-central-1, Frankfurt). Privacy policy: supabase.com/privacy.
Vercel (hosting): Hosts and serves the ACCE platform. Processes IP addresses and request data. Edge functions may process requests in multiple regions. Privacy policy: vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Stripe (payments): Processes subscription payments and stores payment method information. Stripe is a certified member of the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Privacy policy: stripe.com/privacy.
Anthropic (AI processing): Powers AI-generated content such as stock analysis, alerts, and picks. We send aggregated market data and stock information to the Anthropic API; we do not send your personal data, email, or portfolio information to Anthropic for content generation. Privacy policy: anthropic.com/privacy.
SnapTrade (broker auto-import, optional): Used only when you opt in to a broker connection. SnapTrade authenticates you with your brokerage and returns a read-only feed of positions, transactions, balances, and account metadata for the accounts you authorise. SnapTrade is the data controller for the broker credentials themselves; ACCE only receives the data feed. See SnapTrade's privacy policy at snaptrade.com/privacy. You may disconnect at any time from Settings > Connections.
Resend (email delivery): Delivers transactional and alert emails on our behalf. Processes your email address. Privacy policy: resend.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Vercel Analytics & Speed Insights (web analytics): Aggregates pageview counts, navigation patterns, and Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) to help us improve performance. Cookieless and does not collect personally identifiable information. Privacy policy: vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.
PostHog (product analytics, EU region): Captures feature-usage events and funnel data to help us improve the product. Uses a first-party browser cookie for visitor identification. Data is processed in PostHog's EU region. Privacy policy: posthog.com/privacy.
We may also disclose your data if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if necessary to protect our rights, safety, or property.
5b. Portfolio Sharing and Collaboration
The portfolio tracker offers two optional sharing flows. Both are user-initiated and revocable; nothing is shared until you explicitly turn it on.
Public share links: When you generate a public share token for a portfolio, anyone with the link can view a read-only snapshot of the portfolio (holdings, returns, optional notes). The link is unguessable (24 random bytes, base64url-encoded) but is not authenticated; treat it like an unlisted document. You can revoke the link at any time from the portfolio settings, which immediately invalidates it.
Collaborator invites: When you invite a collaborator by email, the invitation record stores their email address and a single-use token. The invited person sees the portfolio you choose to share, in read-only mode. Either you or the collaborator can revoke access at any time. We do not market to invited email addresses.
6. International Data Transfers
Some of our processors operate outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including: EU-US Data Privacy Framework adequacy (for certified US processors such as Stripe); Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission; or adequacy decisions of the European Commission.
You may request information about the specific safeguards applied to international transfers by contacting [email protected].
7. Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy:
Account data is retained for as long as your account is active and for 30 days after deletion to allow recovery. Payment records are retained for 7 years as required by tax and accounting regulations. Portfolio data is retained for as long as your account is active and is deleted upon account deletion. Usage analytics are anonymised after 26 months. Email logs are retained for 12 months. Alerts and notification history is retained for 12 months.
When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with you.
8. Your Rights Under GDPR
As a data subject under the GDPR, you have the following rights:
Right of access (Art. 15): You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Right to rectification (Art. 16): You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
Right to erasure (Art. 17): You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
Right to restriction (Art. 18): You may request restriction of processing in certain circumstances.
Right to data portability (Art. 20): You may request your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
Right to object (Art. 21): You may object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling. You may object to direct marketing at any time.
Right to withdraw consent (Art. 7): Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
Right to lodge a complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority. In Spain, this is the Agencia Espanola de Proteccion de Datos (AEPD) at aepd.es.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days. No fee is required unless requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive.
9. Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Service. For full details, see our Cookie Policy.
Essential cookies (authentication, session management, security) are used under legitimate interest and contractual necessity. Non-essential cookies (analytics, marketing) are only placed with your explicit consent.
10. Security Measures
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data, including: encryption of data in transit (TLS/HTTPS) and at rest; secure password hashing; Row Level Security (RLS) policies in our database ensuring users can only access their own data; access controls limiting admin access to authorised personnel; regular review of security practices; and use of established, security-audited infrastructure providers.
While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours and affected individuals without undue delay, as required by Articles 33 and 34 of the GDPR.
11. Children's Privacy
The Service is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child under 18, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal data, please contact us at [email protected].
12. Automated Decision-Making
Our scoring engine computes stock scores based on quantitative financial metrics using automated processing. These scores are applied to stocks (not to users) and do not constitute automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you within the meaning of Article 22 of the GDPR.
AI-generated content (alerts, picks, analysis) is created by automated systems but is directed at general audiences, not at individual users based on their personal data.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. Material changes will be communicated via email or a prominent notice on the Service at least 30 days before they take effect. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates the most recent revision.
