Market Ticker collects the account and app data needed to run the product: email, account status, selected plan, selected symbols, app key status, signup time, email confirmation status, and recent IP address for account security.
The macOS app sends its app key, install identifier, selected symbols, and normal technical request details so the API can authorize the app, apply plan limits, and return market data.
Payments are processed by Stripe. Market Ticker stores subscription status and Stripe identifiers needed to keep your plan in sync. We do not store full card numbers on Market Ticker servers.
Market Ticker records basic homepage and download counts, plus technical logs such as IP address and user agent. We use this to operate the service, detect abuse, understand whether downloads are working, and measure Reddit ad visits and downloads when you arrive from Reddit ads.
We use account data to verify email, issue and rotate app keys, enforce plan limits, deliver price alerts, provide support, process billing, and keep the app working reliably. We do not sell your personal information.
Market Ticker uses Stripe for billing, email infrastructure for verification and support messages, and Twelve Data for market data. These providers receive only the information needed for their role.
You can request help with account access, billing, data questions, or deletion from the contact form on this page. Removing your app key or deleting account data may limit or disable the macOS app.
Market Ticker uses HTTPS, secure session cookies for the operator console, email verification, app keys, rate limits, and browser security headers. No internet service can be guaranteed perfectly secure, but we keep the data footprint intentionally small.
