Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9 November 2026
The short version: your trading data never leaves your computer. The spreadsheet runs entirely offline. The only personal data we may hold is an email address, and only if you choose to give us one.
1. Who we are
We publish the ThirtySecond Trading Journal ("the Product"). For any privacy question, contact thirtysecond.journal@outlook.com.
2. What we do not collect
- We do not receive your trade data, symbols, P&L, notes or account balances. The .xlsx file is a local document with no network connection and no telemetry.
- We do not require an account, login or password to use the free version.
- We do not use advertising trackers, cross-site pixels, or sell data to anyone.
3. What we may collect, and why
| Data | When | Purpose | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Email address | Only if you submit the optional "notify me" form | To send you occasional product updates, including the Pro launch | Consent — withdraw anytime |
| Purchase details (name, email, country, amount) | Only if you buy a paid version | Delivering the file, invoices, tax compliance, support | Contract performance / legal obligation |
| Basic server logs (IP, browser, page requested) | On every visit, by our host and CDN | Security, abuse prevention, aggregate traffic counts | Legitimate interest |
4. Payments
Paid transactions are handled by a third-party merchant of record. When you pay, your card details go directly to that provider — we never see or store them. The provider acts as the legal seller for the transaction, issues the invoice, calculates and remits applicable taxes, and handles payment-related disputes. Its own privacy policy governs the payment data it collects.
5. Email communications
If you give us your email, we use it to send product updates. Every message includes an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing removes you from the list. We do not share or rent your address to third parties, and we do not add buyers to unrelated marketing lists.
6. Cookies
This site sets no advertising or analytics cookies of its own. Our hosting and CDN provider may set strictly functional cookies or use them for security and abuse prevention. If we add analytics later, this policy will be updated first and, where required, a consent banner will be shown.
7. Third-party services
Depending on how you use the site, the following categories of providers may process limited data on our behalf: a website host/CDN, an email delivery service, and a payment merchant of record. Each is bound to use the data only for the service they provide.
8. International transfers
Our providers may store data in countries other than yours, including the European Union and the United States. Where required, transfers rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
9. Retention
Email addresses are kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. Purchase records are kept as long as tax and accounting law requires. Server logs are kept for a short period, typically under 30 days.
10. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, and to receive a portable copy of it. To exercise any of these, email thirtysecond.journal@outlook.com. We respond within the timeframe required by applicable law, and we will not discriminate against you for making a request.
11. Children
The Product is intended for adults. It is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
12. Security
We use HTTPS across the site and limit access to any personal data we hold. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affecting your data occurs, we will notify affected individuals and any required authority as the law requires.
13. Changes
If this policy changes materially, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, notify email subscribers. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
