Legal
The disclaimer, terms, and privacy policy for ProveTrade — the independent trade auditor.
← Back to ProveTradeNot financial advice
ProveTrade is an independent audit of trading you have already done. It is not financial advice.
What that means, precisely:
- It will never tell you what to trade. ProveTrade gives no trading signals, no entry or exit points, no price predictions, and no buy, sell, or hold calls on any asset or market. Nothing it produces should be read as a recommendation to open, close, or size a position.
- It promises no profit. ProveTrade does not claim, imply, or guarantee any financial outcome, win rate, or return. Figures in your audit describe trades that already happened; they say nothing about the future.
- It does not trade for you and does not manage money on your behalf.
What ProveTrade does do — this is the product, not something to disclaim away:
ProveTrade examines the trades in the file(s) you upload and reports, with evidence, what in your own trading process is working against you: the risk per trade, position sizing, stop and exit discipline, and behavioural patterns such as trading harder after a loss. Every number is computed deterministically by our engine from your real exchange data; the written narrative only puts those numbers into words and never invents a figure. Where a value is an estimate rather than an exact number, the audit says so.
These are recommendations about your own conduct as a trader, each tied to the specific trades that prompted it. They are not, and are not a substitute for, personalised financial, investment, legal, or tax advice from a licensed professional. Trading leveraged instruments such as futures carries a high risk of loss, including the loss of your entire capital. You alone are responsible for your trading decisions.
If you want advice on what to trade or how to invest, consult a licensed financial adviser in your jurisdiction.
Terms of Service
ProveTrade is operated by Oleksandr Hlybchenko, a natural person resident in Ukraine ("the Operator", "we"). The Operator is the party you contract with under these Terms. Contact: aleksandrglibcenko@gmail.com.
By using ProveTrade (the "Service") you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. What the Service is. ProveTrade is an independent, on-demand audit of trading data you choose to upload. It computes metrics and produces a written review of trading you have already done. It is not financial advice — see the Disclaimer above, which forms part of these Terms.
2. Eligibility. You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By using it you confirm that you are.
3. Your data and acceptable use. You may upload only data that you own or are authorised to use. You agree not to misuse the Service, including: attempting to disrupt, overload, probe, or gain unauthorised access to it; uploading malicious content; or using it to violate any law. The Service is provided for your own personal analysis. Your audit results are yours — the Service claims no ownership of them — and are provided for your own personal, non-commercial use.
4. Not financial advice; no reliance. The Service does not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice and gives no trading signals, predictions, or recommendations about what to buy or sell. You must not rely on it as the basis for any investment decision. All trading decisions, and their consequences, are yours alone.
5. No warranties. The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that results will be accurate, complete, uninterrupted, or error-free. Audit accuracy depends on the data you upload; incomplete or non-standard exports may produce incomplete or approximate results, which the Service flags where it can but cannot always detect.
6. Limitation of liability. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Operator shall not be liable for any trading or investment losses, or for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service, even if advised of the possibility. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law. If you are a consumer, nothing in these Terms removes or reduces the rights that the mandatory consumer-protection law of your country of residence gives you and that cannot be waived by agreement; where a limitation in these Terms conflicts with such a right, that right prevails and the rest of this clause continues to apply.
7. Changes. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service, and may update these Terms, at any time. Material changes take effect when the updated Terms are posted. Continued use after a change means you accept it.
8. Governing law. These Terms are governed by the laws of Ukraine, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. If you are a consumer, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection afforded by the mandatory provisions of the law of the country where you have your habitual residence, and you may bring proceedings in the courts of that country where the law of that country gives you that right.

Privacy Policy
In short: we do not store your trades. ProveTrade is stateless. There are no accounts, and your uploaded trading data is not saved after your audit is returned.
1. Who is responsible for your data. ProveTrade is operated by Oleksandr Hlybchenko, a natural person resident in Ukraine ("the Operator", "we"). The Operator is the data controller for the personal data described in this policy, within the meaning of Article 4(7) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and of Ukraine's Law "On Personal Data Protection" No. 2297-VI. You can reach the Operator on any privacy question at aleksandrglibcenko@gmail.com.
2. What you upload. When you run an audit, your file(s) are processed in memory for the duration of that single request and are never written to disk or retained afterwards. We keep no copy of your raw trades. There is no account, no server-side history, and no login.
3. What is sent to the AI provider. The written parts of the product — your audit narrative and any answers in the audit chat — are generated by a third-party large-language-model provider. Three kinds of data are sent to it: the computed metrics produced by our engine; the messages you type in the chat (your questions and the running conversation); and, if you discuss a specific trade, that trade's computed context — its numbers, behavioural flags, and the statistics of its symbol. Your raw trade file is never sent. The provider is whichever one stands behind the model you select in the app, and it processes the data only to return text, under its own terms and privacy policy. The providers we may enable are Anthropic, OpenAI, and Groq — all established in the United States. A model only becomes selectable once we have enabled its provider: any other model is shown in the picker as unavailable and cannot be chosen, and a provider whose model you cannot select receives nothing from us at all. The model picker in the app — not this list — is the live answer to which providers are in use at any moment. If you prefer not to use the AI, the quantitative audit is produced entirely by our own engine, and the chat is optional. Please do not type personal details about yourself or anyone else into the chat — it is not needed for the audit, and anything you type is sent to the provider.
4. Market data. When chart or market-context features are enabled, our engine fetches public market candle data from Binance's public API using only the traded symbol and time window of a trade. It never sends your account information, identity, PnL, or any personal data to obtain that public data.
5. Technical data (operational logs). Running the Service produces some technical data that is not the content of your trades. Our hosting providers keep standard access logs, which include your IP address. We use your IP address to enforce rate limits — to keep the Service available and prevent abuse; it is held in the server's memory for the length of the rate-limit window and is never written to disk by us. Our own application logs are deliberately minimal: a request identifier, the route called, the method, a status code, how long the request took, and an error class. They do not include your IP address, and they never contain the contents of your uploaded files, the prompts sent to the AI, or the AI's responses. We do not use this technical data to build a profile of you or for advertising.
6. No advertising or analytics tracking. Separately from the operational logs above, we run no advertising or analytics trackers, and no tracking cookies. We do not track you across the web, and we do not sell or share your personal data.
7. On your device. Your display preferences — language, theme, and selected model — are stored only in your own browser (localStorage) so the app remembers them between visits. They never leave your device and are not sent to us. You can clear them at any time via your browser.
8. Why we may process this data, and on what legal basis. Under GDPR Article 6 we rely on two bases, and no others:
- To deliver the audit and the chat you asked for — performance of a contract with you, Article 6(1)(b). This covers processing the file you upload, computing your metrics, and sending those metrics, your chat messages, and any focused trade's context to the AI provider you selected.
- To keep the Service available, secure, and working — our legitimate interests, Article 6(1)(f). This covers rate-limiting by IP address, our hosting providers' access logs, and our own operational logs. Our interest is in preventing abuse and diagnosing faults; we have weighed it against your interests, and it is limited to technical data that carries no trading content.
We do not process your data for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making with legal effects. We do not sell it. The same processing is lawful under Ukraine's Law No. 2297-VI.
9. How long we keep it.
- Your uploaded files and your audit results — not retained at all. They exist in memory only while your request is being served, and are gone when it completes.
- Your IP address, for rate limiting — held in the server's memory for the rate-limit window only (currently 10 minutes), then discarded. It is not written to disk by us and does not survive a restart.
- Our own operational logs — no IP address, no file contents, no prompts. They are retained by our hosting provider under its own log-retention policy and are used only for diagnostics.
- Hosting access logs (which do include your IP address) — kept by our hosting providers for a limited period under their own retention policies, not ours.
- Data at the AI provider — your chat messages and metrics are retained by that provider under its own policy, not ours. See section 3 for who the providers are.
10. Transfers outside your country. Every large-language-model provider we enable, and our hosting providers, are established in the United States. Two flows therefore leave the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom: the data in section 3, when it is sent for text generation, and the technical data in section 5 — including the IP address in the hosting access logs — which reaches our hosting providers simply because the Service runs on them. The same safeguard covers both. For each of these processors the Operator relies on the data-processing agreement concluded with it, which incorporates the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (GDPR Article 46(2)(c)), and, where that processor is certified, on its participation in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. We conclude that agreement before we enable a provider, so no transfer to it can happen ahead of the safeguard — and a provider we have not enabled receives nothing in the first place. You can obtain a copy of the relevant safeguards by writing to the contact address below.
11. Your rights. Under GDPR Articles 15 to 22 you have the right to ask for access to your personal data, its rectification or erasure, the restriction of its processing, its portability, and to object to processing based on our legitimate interests. Equivalent rights exist under Ukraine's Law No. 2297-VI. To exercise any of them, write to aleksandrglibcenko@gmail.com.
Because the Service is stateless, we should be honest about what those rights can reach: we hold no store of your trading data to show you, correct, or delete — there is nothing to look up, because we never kept it. In practice a request to us can cover the technical data in section 5 while it still exists, and we will pass on what we can to the extent we can identify it.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (GDPR Article 13(2)(d)). If you are in the EEA, that is the data-protection authority of your country of residence or workplace. If you are in Ukraine, it is the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights. You may complain to them without contacting us first, though we would rather you gave us the chance to fix it.
12. Changes to this policy. If we change this policy, we will post the updated version here with a new effective date. Material changes will be described in plain language rather than slipped in silently.
