Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2023-10-27



The privacy of your data — At MetaBacktest, we understand the significance of safeguarding your data, which is rightfully yours. In this policy, we outline the details of the data we collect, its purpose, and how we handle it, all while underscoring your rights to your data.

When we use terms such as “Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us” in this document, we are specifically referring to MetaBacktest Inc.

What we collect and why



Our guiding principle is to collect only what we need. Here’s what that means in practice:


Identity & access


When you sign up for MetaBacktest, we typically ask for identifying information such as your name, email address, and maybe a company name. This is solely for the purpose of personalizing your new account, and to send you invoices, updates, or other essential information. We may also provide you with the option to add a profile picture, but we do not usually inspect or access that picture. Rest assured, we will never sell your personal information to third parties, and we won't utilize your name or company in marketing statements without your permission either.



Geolocation data


We record all access to all accounts by full IP address at MetaBacktest to ensure that no unauthorized access occurs. This login data may be retained for as long as your account is active. Additionally, we log full IP addresses used to register an account, and we maintain this record indefinitely to counteract spammy signups.



Website interactions


When you browse our marketing pages or your dashboard, your browser automatically shares certain information such as which operating system and browser version you are using. At MetaBacktest, we track that information, along with the pages you are visiting, page load timing, and which website referred you for statistical purposes like conversion rates and to test new designs. Occasionally, we track specific link clicks to help inform some design decisions. These web analytics data are tied to your IP address and user account if applicable and you are signed into our services. Rest assured, at MetaBacktest, we blind all of these individual identifiers after 30 days.



Cookies and Do Not Track


We don't use cookies on MetaBacktest.



Voluntary correspondence


When you write to MetaBacktest with a question or to ask for help, we keep that correspondence, including the email address, so that we have a history of past correspondences to reference if you reach out in the future.



When we access or share your information


Our default practice is to not access your information. The only times we’ll ever ask, access or share your info are:

  • To provide products or services you've requested. we may need to use some third-party services to run our applications and, to the extent necessary, process some or all of your personal information. It's important to note that having subprocessors means we are using technology to access your data. Rest assured, at MetaBacktest, no human personnel looks at your data for these purposes. The following is a list of personal data subprocessors we use:

  • Auth0. User authentication service.
  • Metabacktest Backtest Enginge
  • Email verification tool.
  • Payment processing services.


  • To help you troubleshoot or squash a software bug, with your permission. If at any point we need to access your account to help you with a Support case, we will ask for your consent before proceeding.
  • When required under applicable law. If the appropriate law enforcement authorities have the necessary warrant, criminal subpoena, or court order requiring we share data, we have to comply. Otherwise, we flat-out reject requests from local and federal law enforcement when they seek data. And unless we’re legally prevented from it, we’ll always inform you when such requests are made.
  • To investigate, prevent, or take action regarding restricted uses. Accessing a customer’s account when investigating potential abuse is a measure of last resort. We have an obligation to protect the privacy and safety of both our customers and the people reporting issues to us. We do our best to balance those responsibilities throughout the process. If we do discover you are using our products for a restricted purpose, we will report the incident to the appropriate authorities.



Location of Site and Data


Our products and other web properties are operated all around the world. Participating in any of our services and/or providing us with your information, you consent to this transfer.
