Privacy Policy

Effective with Warden 1.0. Last updated: 8 October 2026.

Warden ("we", "us") sends you alerts before restricted news windows and market holidays that affect the instruments you trade. This policy explains what we store to do that, who helps us run it, and how to get a copy of it or delete it.

Short version: we keep only what we need to send your alerts. We do not track you, we run no analytics or advertising tools, and we do not sell or share your data for advertising.

What we store

Your account

• A random Warden user ID that we create for you. It does not contain your name.
• Your Sign in with Apple identifier. Apple gives each app a stable ID for your Apple Account. It identifies you to us and to no one else.
• Warden does not ask Apple for your name or email address. Apple may still give us an email address the first time you sign in, usually a private relay address that forwards to you. If it does, we store it with your account. We do not send marketing email.
• An Apple refresh token. We keep it for one reason: so we can ask Apple to revoke Warden's access to your Apple sign-in when you delete your account, as Apple requires.
• Sign-in sessions. We store a fingerprint (hash) of each session token, never the token itself, with its creation, last-used and expiry times.

Your trading setup

• The instruments you trade.
• The alert rules you set: how long before or after a window, and before a holiday, you want to hear from us.
• The prop firms whose restricted-news calendars Warden follows for you, if any.
• Whether news alerts are on, which releases you want (high impact, or high and medium), and how long before a release you want to hear from us.
• An account-stage value that earlier versions of Warden asked for. Warden 1.0 does not use it, and it is deleted with your account.

We do not ask for your trading account number, your firm login, your balance, your positions or your trades.

Your phone

• The Apple Push Notification service (APNs) device token that lets us send alerts to your phone.
• Live Activity tokens: the push-to-start token that lets us open the lock-screen countdown card, and the update token for a card that is running.
• The platform (iOS), whether the token belongs to a test or a release build of the app, whether the device is active, and when the app last checked in.

Your alerts

• A record of each alert we schedule for you: which event or holiday it is for, which of your rules it comes from, when it is due, the text of the alert, how many send attempts were made, when it was sent, and whether it was sent, skipped or failed.
• A record of each Live Activity card we start for you: which window it is for, when it started and ended, and whether it is still running.

Your subscription

Warden Pro is paid through Apple. We never see your card or bank details. We store your subscription status: which plan, whether you are in the free trial, a paid period or a billing grace period, whether it will renew, and when it expires. If we grant you complimentary access, we store that grant, its expiry and an internal note.

How we use it

Only to run Warden: to sign you in, to decide which alerts apply to your instruments, to send them to your phone, to show your countdown and calendar, to check whether you have Warden Pro, to warn you before it lapses, and to find and fix delivery problems.

We do not use your data for advertising, we do not build a profile of you, and we do not track you across other apps or websites. Warden contains no third-party analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs.

Who helps us run Warden

We share data only with the service providers below, and only what each one needs to do its job for us. Each is bound by its own terms and privacy commitments to protect this data at least as well as this policy does, and to use it only to provide its service to us. We do not sell your data.

• Apple: Sign in with Apple, push notifications and Live Activities (APNs), and App Store payments.
• Vercel: hosts Warden's server.
• Supabase: hosts Warden's database, in the United States.
• RevenueCat: manages subscriptions for us. It receives your Warden user ID, the purchase receipts Apple issues for Warden Pro, and basic technical data its software sends with each request (such as IP address, iOS and app version, and App Store country), and tells our server when your subscription starts, renews or ends. It does not receive your instruments or alert rules.

These providers may store and process your data in the United States and other countries outside your own.

Warden's alerts are built from public economic calendars, including prop firms' published calendars and a third-party economic calendar. Warden downloads those calendars; it sends them nothing about you.

Server logs

Our server writes operational logs to help us fix problems. They can contain your Warden user ID, internal record IDs for your device and alerts, and error codes from Apple. Our code does not write your APNs device token, Live Activity tokens, session tokens or Apple sign-in tokens to the logs.

Our hosting provider (Vercel) also keeps standard request logs, which include your IP address, the request path and time, and your app or browser version. Server logs are kept only as long as needed to operate and secure the service.

How long we keep it

We keep your data while your account exists. When you delete your account, we delete it from our database straight away. Server logs are kept only as long as needed to operate and secure the service, and copies in our database provider's routine backups expire on its backup schedule.

When you sign out, the phone you sign out on stops receiving alerts. Your account and settings stay until you delete them.

Getting a copy of your data

In the app, go to Settings > Export my data. You get your instruments, alert rules, devices (without their tokens), subscription status and alert history as a file you can save or share. You can also email us to ask for a copy, or to correct something.

Deleting your account

In the app, go to Settings > Delete account. Deletion is immediate and permanent. It removes your account, your Sign in with Apple link, your sessions, your devices and tokens, your instruments and alert rules, your scheduled alerts and Live Activity records, and your subscription status. We also ask Apple to revoke Warden's access to your Apple sign-in.

Deleting your account does not cancel your Warden Pro subscription. Apple bills it, so cancel it in iOS Settings > your name > Subscriptions. Apple and RevenueCat keep their own records of your purchases.

If you stop using Sign in with Apple for Warden in your Apple Account settings, Apple tells us. We then sign you out everywhere and stop sending alerts to your devices. If you delete your Apple Account, Apple tells us and we delete your Warden account in the same way.

Your choices

You can change your instruments and alert rules in the app at any time, turn off notifications or Live Activities in iOS Settings, export your data, and delete your account in the app.

Security

Data travels between the app and our server over HTTPS. We store session tokens only as hashes. Access to the production database is limited to the people who operate Warden.

Age

Warden is for adults aged 18 or over. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update this page and the date at the top.
