Forstock Technologies Inc. (“Forstock,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates forstock.io as well as our web and mobile applications (together, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you use the Services. By using the Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services. For questions, contact privacy@forstock.io.
Sensitive data: We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data.
Minors: See Section 9 (Services are not intended for under-18s).
Controller vs. Processor: For website visitors and Forstock account users, Forstock is the data controller. For merchants who connect their store or systems, the merchant is the data controller of the connected business data and Forstock processes it as a data processor under the merchant’s instructions. If you are a merchant’s customer, please contact that merchant first regarding your data.

We do not sell personal data and do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember preferences, secure the Services, and measure usage. You can manage cookies in your browser settings and, where offered, via our cookie banner. Blocking some cookies may affect functionality.
If you register or sign in using a third-party account, or connect an integration, the provider may share certain information with us under their policies. We use such data only as needed to provide the Services. Your use of third-party services is governed by their terms and privacy policies.
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described here, including:
When no longer needed, we delete or anonymize data. If immediate deletion isn’t possible (e.g., backups), we securely store and isolate it until deletion is feasible.
We use industry-standard safeguards, including encryption in transit, least-privilege access controls, monitoring/logging, vulnerability management, and periodic reviews of our security measures. No system is 100% secure; if we learn of a breach affecting your data, we will notify you and regulators as required by law.
The Services are not intended for individuals under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a minor provided us personal data, contact privacy@forstock.io and we will take appropriate steps to delete it. By using the Services, you represent that you are at least 18.
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing of your personal data, and to data portability. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.
To exercise rights, email privacy@forstock.io with your request and the email associated with your account. We will verify your identity and respond within the time required by law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
Marketing communications: You can unsubscribe using the link in our emails or by contacting us. We may still send non-marketing messages (e.g., service or security notices).
Most browsers include a Do-Not-Track (DNT) setting. There is no consistent industry standard for responding to DNT signals, so we do not respond to DNT at this time.
If you are a resident of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, or Virginia, you may have additional rights under applicable law, including to know/access, delete, correct, portability, and to opt out of certain processing (targeted advertising, sale, or profiling with legal/significant effects).
Forstock does not sell personal data and does not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
To exercise your state-specific rights, contact privacy@forstock.io; we will verify and respond as required. If we deny a request, you may be able to appeal by replying to our decision notice.
We may process data globally. Where we transfer personal data from the EEA/UK/Switzerland to countries without an adequacy decision, we rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and, where applicable, the UK Addendum/IDTA, and implement appropriate safeguards.
We may update this Policy from time to time. The updated version will be effective when posted, with the “Last updated” date revised. If we make material changes, we will provide additional notice where required (e.g., in-app or by email).

Upon a verified request, we will act in accordance with applicable law.
