Last updated: November 9, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how SoftLOGiX, Inc. ("SoftLOGiX", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information in connection with the Stocksaurus® website and services (the "Service"). By using the Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
In Brief
- You can view the Service as a guest. Registering needs only your name and email address; there is no password.
- We do not sell your information, use it for advertising, or use analytics or tracking cookies.
- Your data is kept in Microsoft Azure SQL Database, encrypted in transit and at rest.
- Subscriptions are billed by PayPal; we never see your card or bank details.
1. Information We Collect
- Registration — your email address, first and last name, membership type, when you registered and when your access expires, and that you accepted our cookie policy.
- Subscription information — if you subscribe, what PayPal reports to us: the subscription and plan identifiers, its status and billing dates, the payer's PayPal account ID, name and email address, the date and amount of the last payment, and any cancellation or failed payment. We also keep when trial reminder emails were sent.
- PayPal notifications — a log of the notifications PayPal sends us about your subscription, including their full content, so each one is applied once and billing questions can be answered.
- Messages you send us — your name, email address and message from the Contact page are sent to our support inbox by email so we can reply; they are not stored in the Service's database. The form uses a simple arithmetic question, not a third-party captcha service.
- Technical data — standard server logs (such as timestamps, IP addresses, browser type and error details) generated while operating and securing the Service.
We do not ask for, collect or store your brokerage accounts, holdings or trades.
2. Email Sign-In
One-time codes. To register or sign in on a device, we email you a 6-digit code. Codes are calculated with a keyed cryptographic function (HMAC-SHA256) rather than stored, and stop working after about 10 minutes. After 5 wrong attempts, sign-in for that email address is locked for 15 minutes.
Staying signed in. Once your code is accepted, your browser keeps an Email
cookie for 90 days. It holds your email address together with a cryptographic signature (HMAC-SHA256) that
our server checks on each visit, so the cookie can't be forged or altered to claim someone else's email.
The email address in it is readable by anyone with access to your browser, and it is limited to this site
(SameSite=Strict). It contains no other personal information.
Signing out of a device. The cookie isn't recorded on our server, so it can only be removed from the browser that holds it, by cancelling your registration there or clearing that browser's cookies. On a shared or public computer, clear the browser's cookies when you finish.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use only what the Service needs to work:
- Email cookie — keeps you signed in for up to 90 days, as described above.
- Technical cookies — short-lived cookies the web framework and our Azure hosting use to keep your connection to the Service working.
We do not use advertising, analytics or cross-site tracking cookies. You can delete cookies in your browser at any time; deleting the Email cookie signs you out. When you use PayPal checkout, PayPal may set its own cookies under its own policy.
4. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to provide, operate and maintain the Service; to create and manage your registration; to process subscriptions and payments; to send you sign-in codes, trial-ending and renewal reminders and other service notices; to respond to your inquiries; to secure the Service; and to comply with legal obligations. We do not send marketing emails.
5. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers that perform functions on our behalf:
- Payment processing — PayPal handles subscription billing on its own systems under PayPal's privacy statement. We send PayPal your email address to link the subscription to your registration.
- Email delivery — our outgoing mail server sends sign-in codes, reminders and replies.
- Hosting — Microsoft Azure App Service runs the Service, and Azure SQL Database stores its data.
We may also disclose information where required by law, to protect our rights, or in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition.
6. Data Retention
- Sign-in codes are never stored.
- Registration is kept until you cancel it.
- Subscription records and PayPal notifications are kept after a subscription ends, for billing, support and our one-free-trial-per-account rule.
- Contact messages are kept in our support inbox as long as needed to help you; server logs only as long as needed for operation and security.
Cancel registration on the Registration page deletes your registration and removes the Email cookie from that browser. It does not delete subscription records; to have everything deleted, contact us (see below). We will delete it unless we must keep certain records (for example, billing records) by law. Copies in Azure's automated database backups expire on their normal schedule.
7. Data Security
Your data is stored in Microsoft Azure SQL Database, a managed enterprise database platform hosted in Microsoft's data centers. Those facilities are operated by Microsoft under its own security and compliance programs, including controlled physical access and infrastructure monitoring.
Encryption in transit. The Service is served only over HTTPS (browsers are told to always use HTTPS), and the connection between the Service and our database is encrypted using TLS with the server's certificate validated.
Encryption at rest. Azure SQL Database applies Transparent Data Encryption (TDE), which encrypts the database, its backups, and its transaction logs at rest, with the underlying encryption keys managed by the Azure platform. Within the database, your information is stored as ordinary fields protected by these measures rather than encrypted individually. There are no passwords, and no card or bank details.
Access controls. The Azure SQL firewall limits which services and addresses may connect to the database. Only SoftLOGiX, Inc. has administrative access to the database, servers and logs, and uses it only to run and support the Service.
Backups and resilience. The Azure SQL platform performs automated, encrypted backups with point-in-time restore and provides platform-level redundancy, which helps protect against data loss. We also apply updates to the Service on an ongoing basis.
These measures reduce risk but cannot eliminate it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your Rights and Choices
You can review or cancel your subscription on the Manage subscription page and cancel your registration on the Registration page. Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, update, or delete your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent; contact us to exercise these rights.
9. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed to individuals under 18 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.
10. Third-Party Links
The Service may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
11. International Users
If you access the Service from outside the country in which our systems are hosted, your information will be transferred to, stored in, and processed in that country.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. If a change materially affects how we use information we already hold, we will tell registered members by email before it takes effect.
13. Contact
Questions about this Privacy Policy can be sent through our Contact page.
