We may disclose your personal data if required to do so by law, or in the good faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to: (a) comply with a legal obligation, court order, or lawful request from public authorities; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of Signal Core s.r.o.; (c) prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service; (d) protect the personal safety of Users or the public; (e) protect against legal liability.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will notify you via email or prominent notice on the Platform before your personal data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their marketing purposes.
Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), including the United States, where our infrastructure provider DigitalOcean operates data centers. When we transfer personal data outside the EEA, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with Chapter V of the GDPR, including:
Prior to international data transfers, we conduct transfer impact assessments to evaluate the level of data protection in the recipient country and implement supplementary technical and organizational measures where necessary, including encryption of data in transit and at rest.
You may request a copy of the safeguards we have put in place for international data transfers by contacting us at privacy@tterminal.com.
The Service provides end-to-end encrypted messaging using the Signal Protocol. This means that the content of messages exchanged between Users through the Platform's encrypted messaging feature is encrypted on your device before transmission and can only be decrypted by the intended recipient. The Company does not possess the encryption keys necessary to decrypt message content.
Due to end-to-end encryption, we cannot: (a) read the content of your encrypted messages; (b) provide the content of encrypted messages to law enforcement, courts, or any third party; (c) recover lost encrypted messages; (d) moderate or review the content of encrypted messages.
While message content is encrypted, we may process limited metadata necessary for message delivery, including sender and recipient identifiers, timestamps, and message delivery status. This metadata is retained for the minimum period necessary for service operation and security.
You are solely responsible for the content of your encrypted messages. We cannot intervene in disputes regarding encrypted message content, as we have no ability to access it.
We use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies:
You can manage your cookie preferences through: (a) the cookie consent banner displayed when you first access the Service; (b) your browser settings to block or delete cookies; (c) your account settings on the Platform. Please note that disabling certain cookies may impair the functionality of the Service.
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for the period specified in the cookie, typically ranging from 30 days to 12 months, unless you delete them sooner.
Under the GDPR and applicable Czech data protection law, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
To exercise any of the above rights, please submit a request to privacy@tterminal.com. We will respond to your request within one (1) month of receipt, in accordance with Article 12(3) of the GDPR. This period may be extended by two (2) further months where necessary, taking into account the complexity and number of requests. We will inform you of any such extension within one month of receipt, together with the reasons for the delay.
To protect your rights and ensure the security of your personal data, we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We may ask you to provide additional information necessary for identity verification.
Exercising your data protection rights is free of charge. However, if requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in particular because of their repetitive character, we may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs or refuse to act on the request, in accordance with Article 12(5) of the GDPR.
If you believe that our processing of your personal data violates the GDPR or applicable Czech data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority:

The Service operates 42 proprietary machine learning models that process market data, news, and other public information to generate analytical scores, risk assessments, sentiment analyses, and other outputs. These models process market data and do not make decisions about you as an individual. Specifically:
We may use automated systems to analyze aggregate usage patterns for the purpose of improving the Service. Such analysis does not produce legal effects concerning individual Users and is conducted on aggregated or anonymized data wherever possible.
The Service is not intended for individuals under the age of eighteen (18). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 18. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child under 18 without appropriate parental consent, we will take steps to delete such data promptly. If you believe a child under 18 has provided us with personal data, please contact us at privacy@tterminal.com.
We implement appropriate technical measures to protect your personal data, including:
We implement appropriate organizational measures, including:
While we implement industry-standard security measures, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal data.
In the event of a personal data breach, we will notify the ÚOOÚ (or other competent supervisory authority) without undue delay and, where feasible, not later than 72 hours after becoming aware of the breach, unless the breach is unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in accordance with Article 33 of the GDPR.
If a personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, we will notify affected individuals without undue delay, in accordance with Article 34 of the GDPR. The notification will describe the nature of the breach, the likely consequences, the measures taken or proposed to address the breach, and the contact point for further information.
We maintain records of all personal data breaches, including the facts, effects, and remedial actions taken, regardless of whether the breach is reportable to the supervisory authority.
Educational video courses provided through the Service are encrypted using AES-128 encryption technology. This encryption is implemented to protect the intellectual property of content creators and the Company. The encryption system processes technical access tokens linked to your account; it does not collect or process additional personal data beyond what is described elsewhere in this Privacy Policy.
The Service may contain links to third-party websites, services, or resources. This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party services, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access through the Platform, including but not limited to Stripe (payments), Partner Brokers, and data provider platforms.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our processing activities, legal requirements, or business operations. Material changes will be communicated through: (a) a prominent notice on the Platform; (b) email notification to the address associated with your account; or (c) other appropriate means.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acknowledgment of the modified Privacy Policy.
