Privacy

What this site knows about you, which is almost nothing.

This page exists because you should not have to guess. The site is static, sets no cookies, and runs no trackers. Here is the complete list of data that can exist about you.

Analytics

Page views are counted by GoatCounter, a privacy-first counter that uses no cookies and stores no personal profile. I see aggregate counts, referrers, and country-level location. I cannot identify you from it and would not try.

Two links are counted as events as well as page views, so I can tell whether anyone reaches the point where paying is offered: the subscription link on the PairDesk page and the one on the sample desk. The counter records that a link of that name was clicked, not who clicked it.

The intake form

If you start a Check, the form submits to Google Forms, so the details you enter (name or handle, email, and what you write about your backtest) are stored with Google and visible to me. They are used to run your engagement and for nothing else: no mailing lists, no resale, no sharing with anyone. Material you send about your strategy is treated as confidential, never leaves my machine, and is deleted on request.

Payments

Payments run through Razorpay or PayPal. Your card or bank details go to them, not to me; I receive your name, email, and the amount, which appear on your invoice and in my accounting records as the law requires.

Subscriptions

If you subscribe to PairDesk I hold your email address and your firm name, because the desk and the brief are delivered by email and the invoice has to say who it is for. I send and keep that mail with Google, the same as any other email, and PayPal holds the billing record. That is the whole of it. Nothing about you goes into the desk, the desk does not phone home, and cancelling means replying to any invoice.

Email

If you email me, I have your email. I reply from it and keep the thread for my records.

What does not exist

Removal

Email me and anything about you that I hold, form entries, files, correspondence, is deleted, except invoices and payment records that tax law requires me to keep.
