Privacy PolicyPrivaatsuspoliitika

Nice Trader OÜ (operating the TechnoTrader brand) is the data controller for personal data processed through this website. We take your privacy seriously and process personal data in accordance with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable Estonian law.

There is one place where we are not the controller. If you buy software from us, the payment runs on Stripe's own checkout page, and for that payment Stripe is a separate, independent controller that decides for itself what it does with the data it collects there. We are not joint controllers with Stripe. Section 6 sets out who receives what.

One piece of timing. The shop's own checkout is not open yet. Everything below that describes buying software from us, licence keys and the checkout describes how it will work from the day it opens, so that this notice is in place before the first purchase rather than after it. Until that day no purchase data travels through this website at all.

1. Who we are

Nice Trader OÜ · Estonian Commercial Register 17081994 · LEI 6488HT10Z91OQ3PO8252 · VAT EE102863750 · Ranniku tee 48b-13, Tallinn 12113, Estonia. Contact: info@technotrader.net.

2. What data we collect

This website is designed to collect the minimum amount of personal data. Specifically:

• Contact data you submit voluntarily. If you email us at info@technotrader.net or write to us on Telegram (@TechnoTrader28), we receive whatever information you choose to send, typically your name, email address, and the content of your message.
• Newsletter signup. Some pages embed a newsletter signup form provided by Substack. If you enter your email address there to subscribe to our free Insights newsletter, that email is collected and processed by Substack Inc. (USA) under Substack's own privacy policy, and is not stored on this website. Subscribing is entirely optional and you can unsubscribe at any time.
• Purchase data, if you buy software from us. Checkout runs on Stripe's own hosted page. There you give Stripe your name, e-mail address, your billing country and, where Stripe asks for it, your billing address, and your card or wallet details. We never see the card details. The checkout also asks you for one thing we need and Stripe does not, your MetaTrader 5 account number. That number identifies a broker account, and giving it at the checkout is optional, because you can type it on the thank-you page later instead. Stripe passes your e-mail address, the order and that account number back to us, and the account number is built into the licence key you receive, because the key works only on that account.
• Account numbers you send us by e-mail. Some things are handled by hand rather than at the checkout: a key for a free tool, a replacement for a key you lost, a change of broker or account, and each further account your purchase covers. In those cases you send us the account number, and sometimes your order number, by e-mail. We use it to issue the key, and we keep a record of the keys we issue this way (see section 5).
• Language and theme preferences. We store your chosen language (English or Estonian) and your light or dark theme choice in your browser's local storage. These two settings stay in your browser and are never sent to us.
• A returning-customer token. Your browser can also hold a short code named tt_k. It is a signed form of your Stripe customer number, so it is personal data and not a technical setting. It is written after a purchase, and also as soon as you open a shop link that carries it, for example a link somebody forwarded to you. Unlike the two settings above this one is sent to our checkout service, and once the checkout is open it is sent on two occasions. When you open the shop we use it to ask Stripe what you have already bought, so that the quantity discount shown on the page matches the price you are actually charged. When you go to the checkout it is sent with your basket, so that the new order is attached to the same Stripe customer. Clearing your browser data removes it, and the shop then prices as if you were a new customer.

For traffic measurement we use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a cookieless service. It sets no cookies, it does not track you across other websites, and it reports aggregate statistics such as page views and approximate visitor numbers. Loading it does send your IP address, your browser type and the address of the page you are on to Cloudflare, which is what a request to any other company's server does. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party advertising trackers.

Opening a page also makes your browser fetch things from other companies, and each of those requests carries your IP address and browser type to them. On this page and on most pages of this site the fonts come from Google (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). On pages that show euro prices your browser asks open.er-api.com for the day's exchange rate, once a day. Our web host stores the site files and its servers keep access logs. An embedded YouTube video loads only after you click play, and from that moment YouTube's own cookies and tracking apply. Section 6 names these recipients.

3. Why we process it

• To respond to your inquiries. If you contact us, we use your email address and message to reply and to keep a record of our correspondence.
• To deliver what you bought and to support it. We use your MetaTrader 5 account number to generate your licence key, and your e-mail address to answer you and to issue a replacement key if you lose one or change broker or account.
• To price the quantity discount correctly. When you open the shop and your browser sends the returning-customer token, we ask Stripe what you have already bought, so that the discount shown on the page is the discount you are charged. This happens on the visit itself, before any payment and independently of one.
• To comply with legal obligations. We retain certain records as required by Estonian accounting and tax law.

4. Legal basis

We rely on the following legal bases under the GDPR: (a) performance of a contract (Article 6(1)(b)) for everything to do with a purchase, which covers issuing and reissuing your licence key and supporting the product you bought, (b) your consent when you voluntarily contact us, (c) our legitimate interests in operating a functional website, which includes pricing the quantity discount from what you already own, and (d) legal obligations where applicable, in particular Estonian accounting and tax law. Your newsletter subscription is not on this list, because the address you type into that form goes straight to Substack and never reaches us.

5. How long we keep it

Email correspondence is kept for as long as necessary to maintain the business relationship, and subsequently for the period required by Estonian law. You may request deletion of your personal data at any time (see section 7).

Your purchase is held by Stripe as part of its own records, for as long as Stripe's retention rules and the accounting and tax obligations on both sides require. We keep no copy of the order on this website, so when we need to look one up we look it up in Stripe. When we issue or reissue a key by hand, we write one line of our own for it, holding the date, the product, the account number, the expiry date of the key, your e-mail address, the order reference, any note we make about the case, and the key that was issued. That line is kept on a company machine for as long as we support the product and for the period Estonian accounting law requires. One thing cannot be taken back: your MetaTrader 5 account number is built into a licence key that is already on your computer, and we have no way to reach into that key or to recall it.

6. Who we share it with

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. The recipients include:

• Stripe. Stripe runs the checkout and is the merchant of record for the payment, which means Stripe takes the money, charges and remits the VAT or sales tax due in your country, issues your receipt, and handles refunds and card disputes. Our contracting counterparties are Stripe Payments Europe, Limited and Stripe Technology Europe, Limited, both in Ireland, and Stripe also processes data outside the EU. For the payment Stripe is a controller in its own right and not our processor, and it decides for itself what it does with the data under Stripe's own privacy policy. Stripe receives your name, e-mail address, billing country and billing address where it asks for one, card or wallet details, the items you bought and the MetaTrader 5 account number if you give one at the checkout. It passes your e-mail address, the order and that account number back to us so that we can issue your key.
• Cloudflare. Our checkout service runs on Cloudflare Workers and acts as our processor. It receives the returning-customer token and the lookup of your earlier orders when you open the shop, your basket when you go to the checkout, and your e-mail address and MetaTrader 5 account number when you come back from a completed payment. It builds your licence key and hands it straight to your browser. We give it no database of its own. The one thing it does write is your MetaTrader 5 account number, and it writes it onto your order at Stripe, so that a key can be reissued later and so that one purchase cannot be keyed to an unlimited number of accounts. That is true of a number you give at the checkout and of one you give afterwards. Cloudflare's own systems still keep request logs, and if something fails we log the error message. Cloudflare also receives the analytics described in section 2. Cloudflare does not host this website.
• Our web host, Veebimajutus (Elkdata OÜ, Estonia), which stores the site files and whose servers keep access logs containing visitor IP addresses.
• Google, which serves the fonts loaded on this page and on most pages of this site, and receives your IP address, browser type and the page address each time. If you click play on an embedded YouTube video, YouTube receives the same and applies its own cookies.
• open.er-api.com, the exchange rate service your browser calls once a day on pages that show euro prices. It receives your IP address and browser type. It receives nothing about you or your order.
• Veebimajutus (Elkdata OÜ), Estonia, which is also our e-mail provider and processes messages sent to info@technotrader.net, including anything you write to us about an order.
• Substack (Substack Inc., USA), our newsletter platform, if you subscribe through the signup form on one of our pages. That form posts straight from your browser to Substack, so your address never passes through our servers, and Substack processes it under its own privacy policy.
• Authorities, when required by law.

Of the recipients above, Veebimajutus, which is both our web host and our e-mail provider, and our checkout service on Cloudflare are our processors, which means they act on our instructions and only for the purposes above. Stripe, Google, Substack and the exchange rate service are not our processors. Each of them decides for itself what it does with the data it receives, under its own privacy policy. Several of the recipients above process data outside the EU, each under the safeguards it publishes. If you want to know which safeguard applies to a particular recipient, write to us and we will tell you.

7. Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right to: access your data, rectify inaccurate data, erase your data, restrict or object to processing, and data portability. Where we rely on your consent, such as for the newsletter, you can withdraw it at any time, and withdrawing it does not affect anything we did before you withdrew it. To exercise any of these rights, email info@technotrader.net. If you believe we are not handling your data properly, you may also complain to the Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate (Andmekaitse Inspektsioon).

One limit is worth knowing in advance. The record of your payment sits with Stripe as a controller in its own right, so a request about that record goes to Stripe under its own policy, and neither we nor Stripe can erase what tax and accounting law requires us to keep.

8. Third-party links

This site contains links to third-party platforms (MQL5, Darwinex, SignalStart, FXer, ICTrading, Darwinex Zero, Telegram). Some of these are partner links that may provide us with commission. When you follow them, you leave our site and their privacy policies apply. We recommend reviewing their privacy practices before registering.

Buying from the shop is not an ordinary link. The buy button sends you to Stripe's own checkout page, where you enter your payment and address details into Stripe's systems and not into ours. Section 6 sets out what Stripe receives.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The version date is shown at the foot of this page, and the version you are reading replaces every earlier one. This version was rewritten in September 2026 to describe the direct checkout, the licence keys and every recipient of your data.
