Privacy Policy

1. About this policy

Grow Unlimited LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, 1001 S Main St, Suite 6012, Kalispell, MT 59901, USA ("we") operates tradethepath.com and tradethepost.com, their Telegram bots and the Trade The Path Daily YouTube channel. We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles (Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)), whether or not an exemption would otherwise apply, and with any other privacy laws that apply to you. We do not sell personal information.

2. What we collect

• Account: email address, password (stored hashed), plan and billing status, trial dates.
• Telegram: chat ID and username when you link a bot, your trackers, alert settings (such as minimum move and score) and message delivery records.
• Payments: Stripe customer and subscription identifiers and invoices. Card details are handled by Stripe; we never receive the full card number.
• Watchlists and alerts: the stocks and people you follow and the alerts sent to you.
• Broker connections (Trade The Path, optional): your broker, account identifier and label, paper or live mode, and your credentials. Credentials are encrypted in your browser with a passphrase we never see, and are only decrypted in server memory while you keep the connection unlocked. While you are connected we also collect your holdings (symbol, quantity, average cost, market value, cost basis, unrealised gain or loss), resting and past orders, orders you send through the site, your confirmation that each order was your own decision, and watchlists synced with your broker.
• Technical: IP address, device and browser, pages viewed and events, via Google Analytics 4 and our server logs.
• Support: messages you send us.

3. How we collect it

From you; from your broker (only when you connect it); from Stripe and Telegram; and automatically when you use the Services.

4. Why we use it

To provide accounts, alerts and the convenience tools. Your holdings and orders are used only to:

• show you your own data;
• sort and filter your own view, including against the model's levels (which are the same for every user);
• size order forms you open (for example, a sell form defaults to your broker-reported holding);
• send the orders you confirm.

We also use your information to process payments, secure the Services and prevent fraud, improve the Services (using aggregated or de-identified data where possible), meet legal obligations and send service messages. We send marketing messages only with your consent. Each one identifies us and includes an unsubscribe option (reply /stop in Telegram, or use the email link). We never use your holdings or orders for marketing, to change the model's levels, or to trade for ourselves, and we never share them with other users.

5. Who we share it with

Service providers under contract: hosting (Australia), Stripe (payments), Telegram (message delivery), Google (analytics), Cloudflare (security and delivery), and your chosen broker (Interactive Brokers, Alpaca) to carry out your instructions. We also share information with professional advisers, regulators and law enforcement where required or authorised by law, and with a buyer of our business (under this policy).

6. Overseas disclosure

Some providers store or process information outside Australia, including in the United States and other countries where they operate. We take reasonable steps, including contractual terms, to make sure they protect it consistently with the APPs, and we remain responsible for it.

7. People we track (Trade The Post)

Trade The Post reads public posts by public figures and public accounts. If you believe you have been added as a private individual, contact support@tradethepost.com. We will review the tracker and remove it where appropriate.

8. Security

Encryption in transit; browser-side encryption of broker credentials; hashed passwords; access controls and logging of staff access; backups. If a data breach is likely to cause serious harm, we will notify you and the OAIC under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.

9. Retention

• Account data: while your account is open.
• Broker credentials: deleted immediately when you disconnect.
• Holdings and order snapshots: deleted within 30 days of disconnecting, except records of orders sent through the site and your confirmations, which we keep for 7 years as a record of your instructions.
• Billing records: 7 years (tax law).
• Analytics: per Google's retention setting (14 months).

10. Your rights

You can ask to access or correct your information, delete your account, or export your data. We respond within 30 days, free of charge. If you are in the EU/UK or a US state with privacy laws, you have the rights those laws give you. You can opt out of analytics with Google's opt-out add-on.

11. Cookies

We use essential cookies for sign-in and security, and Google Analytics cookies to measure use.

12. Children

The Services are for people 18 and over.

13. Complaints

Contact support@tradethepost.com. If you are not satisfied, you can complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (oaic.gov.au, 1300 363 992) or your local regulator.
