Trading Signal Simulator privacy policy

Last updated 14 November 2026. This policy covers the Android app Trading Signal Simulator (package com.tradingsignalsimulator.app), published by Section Nine.

The short version

No account. Your portfolios, trades, notes and pasted text stay on your phone. Unless you turn it off in Settings, the app sends us anonymous usage statistics and your simulated trades, tied to a random app ID. We don't sell your data.

What we collect

DataWhyKept
A random app ID, your app version, Android version, phone model and languageTo group statisticsUntil you delete them
App activity: onboarding steps, features used, and which promotions were shown, tapped or dismissed (optional, Settings)To improve the app and measure our promotionsUntil you delete them
Your simulated trades: market, direction, order type, price levels, size, result, cost assumptions and the signal source you picked (optional, Settings)To improve the app and understand which sources people testUntil you delete them

Standard server logs when the app loads live prices or promotions (these requests don't include the app ID)To run and secure the serviceAs kept by our hosting provider, typically days

What we don't collect

We don't collect your name, phone number, email address or Telegram account through the app. Notes and pasted text are never sent. Trades are virtual: the app has no access to any real trading account.

Who processes data for us

Vercel (hosting for our servers) and Neon (database). Live prices come from our server, which reads public market data. Some of these providers process data outside the UK under the safeguards they publish. We don't sell personal data or use it for advertising, and there are no third-party ad networks in our apps.

Crash reports

Settings has a crash-report switch, off unless you turn it on. In the current version reports stay on your phone.

Promotions and Telegram

The app shows promotions for our own Telegram channels, apps and websites, always labelled as ours. If you tap one it opens in Telegram, Google Play or your browser, and their privacy policies apply. Our promotions use separate Telegram invite links, so Telegram shows us, as the channel's administrator, that your Telegram account joined through one. We use this to count joins, see whether people stay, and whether people who join later pay for one of our services. It isn't connected to the app ID or your trades.

Your choices and deleting your data

Turn statistics off in Settings at any time; queued statistics are then discarded. Settings → Delete my statistics removes what our server holds for your app ID. Uninstalling removes the app's data from your phone (Android's own backup may keep a copy in your Google account). You can also email support@s9.software.

Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, or object to its use, by emailing support@s9.software. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.

Children

This app is for adults (18+).

Changes

If what the app collects changes, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
