Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information SmarterDividends ("we") collects when you use smarterdividends.com, how we use it, and your choices.

Information we collect

• Account information — if you create an account, we store your email address and the portfolio/watchlist data you add. Passwords are stored only in hashed form.
• Usage & device data — like most sites, we automatically collect standard analytics (pages viewed, referring source, device/browser type, approximate region) to understand and improve the service.
• Cookies — we use essential cookies for authentication and analytics cookies to measure traffic.

How we use information

We use your information to operate the service (including saving your portfolio), to maintain security, to analyze and improve the site, and to communicate with you about your account. We do not sell your personal information.

Third-party services

We use third-party providers to run the service, including analytics (Google Analytics) and infrastructure/hosting. These providers process data on our behalf and may set their own cookies. If we display advertising, ad partners may use cookies to serve and measure ads.

Data retention & security

We retain account data while your account is active. We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, though no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

Your choices

• You can access or delete your account data by contacting us.
• You can disable cookies in your browser, though some features (like staying signed in) may stop working.
