Scope of this Policy
This policy explains what data the Crypto Analyst VTa app, website, feedback page, AI features, subscriptions, AI credits, and related services may process, why the data is processed, the legal bases under the GDPR where applicable, retention, recipients, international transfers, and user rights.
Data We May Process
- Technical app and device data: device identifiers, app version, language, region, operating system, network data, security metadata, timestamps, and logs needed to operate, secure, and improve the app.
- Market and chart requests: symbols, timeframes, quotes, charts, levels, indicators, and request metadata needed to load market information. External providers may process IP address and technical request data.
- On-device calculations: many indicators, pattern checks, levels, and signal values are calculated locally on the device where possible.
- Alerts and push notifications: if enabled, we may process messaging tokens, alert settings, symbols, timeframes, levels, conditions, delivery status, and related technical metadata.
- Signals, patterns, and drawings: selected market context, signal scores, visible signal factors, detected pattern information, and chart state may be processed to display analytical features.
- AI signal analysis: when you manually request VTa Arbiter AI analysis, the app may send a limited signal snapshot such as selected symbol, timeframe, score, visible signal factors, and technical context needed to generate the explanation.
- AI credits and purchases: purchase validation data, order identifiers, credit balance, credit usage records, device identifiers, timestamps, and anti-abuse metadata. Payments are processed by Google Play; we do not receive full card or bank details.
- Subscriptions: subscription status and validation metadata needed to unlock paid features and provide support.
- Feedback and support: name/message entered by the user, timestamps, conversation content, admin replies, moderation data, and technical metadata needed to respond and prevent abuse.
- News and external links: headlines, snippets, source information, and cached lists may be shown in the app. Opening an external link sends you to the third-party website, which applies its own policy.
- Crash or diagnostic logs: if enabled or provided by platform tools, diagnostic data may be used to improve stability, security, and compatibility.
Purposes of Processing
- Providing charts, levels, patterns, drawing tools, indicators, alerts, signal scores, AI analysis, subscriptions, and AI credits.
- Validating purchases, restoring entitlements, maintaining AI credit balance, preventing fraud or abuse, and providing support.
- Sending optional notifications where enabled by the user.
- Maintaining security, debugging, improving stability, and complying with legal obligations.
- Responding to feedback, support requests, data requests, and legal requests.
Legal Bases (GDPR)
- Article 6(1)(b) - contract: processing necessary to provide requested app features, subscriptions, AI credits, purchase validation, support, and account-free app functionality.
- Article 6(1)(f) - legitimate interests: security, abuse prevention, fraud prevention, service reliability, debugging, basic diagnostics, product improvement, and protection of legal rights where proportionate.
- Article 6(1)(a) - consent: optional push notifications, optional diagnostics, or other optional features that require consent.
- Article 6(1)(c) - legal obligation: records required by applicable law, including tax, accounting, consumer-protection, fraud-prevention, payment, or legal-compliance obligations where applicable.
Automated Processing and AI
The app may automatically calculate technical indicators, pattern checks, signal scores, alerts, and AI explanations. These outputs are informational only. The app does not make legally binding or similarly significant automated decisions about users, does not execute trades, does not manage user funds, and does not make personalized financial decisions.
Recipients and Processors
Data may be processed by providers necessary to operate the app and website. Depending on the feature used, these may include Google Play, Google/Firebase services, Cloudflare hosting or worker services, market-data providers, news providers, AI service providers, translation services, push-notification services, crash-reporting services, security providers, and app-store or payment infrastructure. We do not sell personal data.
International Transfers
Some providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Where required, such transfers are based on appropriate safeguards, such as adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
Retention
We keep personal or technical data only as long as needed for the purposes described above, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Notification tokens are kept while notifications remain enabled or until they become invalid. AI credit, purchase, and subscription records may be kept as needed for balance integrity, restore purchases, support, fraud prevention, accounting, and legal obligations. Feedback may be kept until the matter is resolved or until deletion is requested where deletion is legally possible.
Security and Data Minimization
We aim to limit transmitted data to what is reasonably necessary for the requested feature. We use technical and organizational measures appropriate to the size and nature of the service, but no system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Your Rights
- Right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, and data portability.
- Right to object to processing based on legitimate interests.
- Right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting processing already carried out.
- Rights relating to automated decision-making and profiling where applicable.
- Right to complain to a competent data protection authority, including your EU national authority where applicable.
To protect users and prevent unauthorized access, we may ask for information reasonably necessary to verify a request, such as the Device ID shown in the app or other proof linking the request to the relevant records.
Children
The app is not intended for children under 16 and does not knowingly process children's personal data.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this policy when features, providers, laws, or data practices change.
