Maple offers two ways to use the product, with different privacy implications for each.
Guest mode
Using Maple as a guest keeps all activity — saved strategies, preferences, and paper-trading history — stored locally in the user's own browser. Nothing about a guest session is sent to or stored on Maple's servers.
Signed-in accounts
Creating an account requires an email address, used solely to send a one-time sign-in link (no password is ever set or stored). Once signed in, a user's saved strategies and any feedback they submit are stored on Maple's servers, scoped to their account by row-level security so no other user can access it (see Security).
Third-party market data
To display prices and run backtests, Maple fetches market data from established third-party providers. These requests do not include any personal or account information — only the market symbols and data ranges needed to serve the request.
No advertising or tracking
Maple does not run advertising, does not include third-party analytics or tracking scripts, and does not sell or share user data with third parties for marketing purposes.
Feedback
Feedback submitted through the app is stored and used solely to improve Maple, and may be reviewed directly by the team building the product.
This page is a plain-language summary. Maple's in-app Privacy Policy is the governing document for its current private alpha and takes precedence in the event of any difference.
