By using the Platform, you consent to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information when you use Scalar Field:
Personal Information: When you create an account, we may collect your name, email address, and authentication credentials. If you subscribe to a paid plan, payment information is collected and processed by our third-party payment processor (Stripe) — Scalar Field does not directly store your credit card or bank account details.
Usage Data: We automatically collect information about how you interact with the Platform, including queries and searches performed, pages and features accessed, session duration and frequency of use, and device type, browser type, operating system, and IP address.
Financial Account Data: If you choose to connect brokerage or financial accounts through integrated services (such as Alpaca or Plaid), we may receive limited account information necessary to provide the requested features. Scalar Field does not store your brokerage login credentials.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
  • To provide, operate, and maintain the Platform and its features.
  • To process transactions and manage your subscription.
  • To personalize and improve your experience on the Platform.
  • To analyze usage patterns and improve our services, content, and functionality.

4. Third-Party Services
Scalar Field integrates with third-party services to provide certain features. These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them:
  • Stripe: Processes payments and manages subscriptions. Scalar Field does not store your payment card details.
  • Alpaca: Provides brokerage integration for portfolio features. Account data shared with Scalar Field is limited to what is necessary for the requested functionality.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services. Your use of these integrations is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies.
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your data in the following circumstances:
  • Service Providers: With trusted third-party vendors who assist us in operating the Platform (e.g., hosting, analytics, payment processing), subject to confidentiality obligations.
  • Legal Requirements: When required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.
  • Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction.
  • Protection of Rights: To protect the rights, safety, or property of Scalar Field, our users, or the public.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information, including encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls and authentication safeguards, and regular security assessments. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you with our services. Upon account deletion or termination, we will delete or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, unless retention is required by law or for legitimate business purposes (such as resolving disputes or enforcing agreements).
