We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity before acting on a request. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Chart and Strategy Simulation Data

PineScripter can draw your script on a chart and simulate a strategy script against historical market data. This section explains what those two features store about you, for how long, and where the work happens.

What a simulation stores

Simulation results and your chart settings are both stored against Your Account.

  • A simulation result holds the list of simulated trades, each with its entry and exit time, entry and exit price, direction, quantity, trading costs, and profit; the account value calculated at each price bar; the summary statistics shown in the report; the status and progress of the run; the time the run started and finished; and a short fingerprint of the script the run used, which is what lets the app tell you that your script has changed since the result was produced. It does not hold a copy of your script.
  • Your chart settings hold the market, the timeframe, and the number of price bars you selected, and, for a simulation, the starting capital, the commission type and amount, and the slippage amount you entered.

Both are included in an export of Your Account data, and both are deleted when Your Account is deleted.

How long we keep simulation results

We keep a simulation result for 30 days after the run finishes.

At the end of those 30 days the result is deleted permanently, together with any stored file holding its trade list and account-value series. Deletion is final and a deleted result cannot be recovered or restored, by you or by us. Nothing else is affected: your script, your chat history, and your chart settings are not part of this and are not deleted with the result.

You can run the simulation again at any time to produce a fresh result, and you can download a result to your own device before the 30 days are up if you want to keep it.

Your record of the simulation notice

Before your first simulation, we show you a notice explaining what a simulated result is and is not, and you have to confirm that you have read it. When you confirm, we store a record of that against Your Account. The record holds two things and nothing else: the version identifier of the notice you were shown, and the date and time at which you confirmed it.

We hold it for one purpose, which is to be able to show which version of that notice was displayed and accepted before a simulation ran. It is never used for marketing, profiling, or analytics, and it is not shared with anyone unless we are legally required to produce it.

This record is kept if Your Account is deleted, because it is our evidence that the notice was shown and accepted.

Where Your Account is deleted, the record is kept for seven years from the date on which you confirmed the notice, and is then deleted. During that period it continues to hold only the notice version and the confirmation date and time.

Where your script runs

Your script is not sent anywhere to be run. Pine Script execution and simulation both happen inside your own browser, on your own device.

No processor receives or stores the text of your script for the purpose of running or simulating it. Your script is still saved to Your Account so that you can return to it, and it is still sent to our AI model provider when you ask us to write or edit code for you, as described earlier in this Policy. Neither of those is part of running the script or simulating it.

The historical market data the chart and the simulation need is requested by our own server from Binance, and not by your browser, so your browser makes no request to Binance and Binance receives nothing that identifies you.

These features add no processor to the ones the Service already uses. In particular they add nothing beyond Clerk, which handles sign-in; Convex, which hosts the database and our server functions; Dodo Payments, which handles payments; and OpenRouter, which routes requests to AI model providers.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will post updates on this page and update the date above. We may notify you by email and/or a prominent notice before changes take effect when appropriate.
