Wille's JournalPrivacy Policy
Last updated: 26 September 2026
1. Who is responsible for your data
Wille's Journal (the website at willes-journal.web.app, the phone app and the desktop apps for Windows and Mac — together "the Service") is run by Sjuttiofyra, a sole trader business registered in Sweden. We are the data controller for the personal data described here.
Questions or requests: 74wille@gmail.com.
2. What we collect
Your account
You sign in with Google. We receive your name, email address and a Google account identifier, and we create an account ID for you. The desktop app stores a sign-in key on your computer so it can keep you signed in.
The desktop app also works out a device identifier from your computer's hardware. It is used to check whether the computer has access, and is shown to you on the access screen. It is only stored on our side if your computer is added to the access list.
Your journal
Everything you put in your journal: trades (instrument, entries, exits, size, results, notes, tags), trading accounts, recaps, weekly reviews, playbooks, goals, screenshots, voice notes and app settings. This is synced so the same journal appears on every device you use.
Your profile and activity
Your username, profile picture, banner, name colour, custom status, any social media handles you choose to add, your level and experience points, and whether you are online. Your profile is visible to other signed-in users.
Communities, chat and voice
Communities you create or join, your role in them, messages, images, reactions, trade signals and trades you share, and whether you are typing. Voice rooms connect your device directly to the other participants' devices (peer-to-peer), which means participants' devices can see each other's IP addresses. To set up that connection your device contacts a connection server (Google's public STUN servers); when a direct connection is not possible, the audio is passed through a relay server run by Metered. We do not record voice rooms.
Subscription
Your trial or subscription status, when your current period ends, and a link to your billing portal. We do not receive or store your card details — payments are handled by Whop (see section 5).
Technical data
Like any online service, our hosting and database provider (Google Firebase) processes your IP address and basic request data to deliver the Service and keep it secure. We do not use analytics or advertising tools and do not build profiles of you.
When the app runs into an error, it sends us an error report so we can fix it: the error message and where in the code it happened, the app version, your operating system, which screen was open and your account ID. Error reports contain no trades, notes or messages.
3. Why we use it, and on what legal basis
| Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|
| Providing your account, journal, sync, communities and voice rooms | Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Showing a mentor your journal after you approve it | Contract — it is a feature you switch on and can switch off |
| Managing your trial and subscription | Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)) |
| Finding and fixing errors in the app (error reports) | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) in a working service |
| Security, preventing abuse, moderating content, handling reports | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) in a safe service |
| Keeping accounting records | Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)) under Swedish bookkeeping law |
4. Who can see your data
- Your journal (trades, notes, screenshots, voice notes, reviews): you; a mentor in your community only after you give consent, until you withdraw it; and our administrators when needed to run the Service, investigate a problem or respond to a report.
- Your profile and online status: all signed-in users.
- Community content (messages, images, members): the members of that community and our administrators.
- Trades you share publicly: all signed-in users.
- Screenshots, images and voice notes are stored as files with a hard-to-guess link. Anyone who is given that link can open the file, so only share links with people you trust.
5. Service providers and third parties
| Who | What for | Data involved |
|---|---|---|
| Google (Firebase) — processor | Sign-in, database (Belgium region), file storage, server functions, website hosting | All account and journal data, IP address |
| Whop — payment platform | Checkout, payments, tax, receipts, refunds, managing your subscription | Name, email, payment and billing details (Whop is responsible for this data as its own controller — see its privacy policy). Whop tells us your email, your Whop user ID and whether your subscription is active. |
| Metered | Relay server for voice rooms, only when a direct connection is not possible | IP address, the encrypted audio stream (not recorded) |
| GitHub (Microsoft) | Hosting the app downloads and updates | IP address when you download or the app checks for updates |
| Tenor (Google) | GIF search in chat, only when you open the GIF picker | Your search terms, IP address |

| Forex Factory (Fair Economy) and FinancialJuice | Economic calendar and news headlines on the dashboard | IP address |
| Websites you link to | Link previews in chat | The desktop app fetches the linked page, which sees your IP address |
We never sell your personal data or share it for advertising.
6. Transfers outside the EU
Some of these providers are based in the United States or may process data there. Where that happens, the transfer is covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where the provider is certified, or by the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
7. How long we keep it
- Account, journal and community data: for as long as you have an account. When you ask us to delete your account, we remove it from our live systems within 30 days.
- Messages you posted in a community may stay visible to its members until you or the community owner deletes them, or we delete them with your account.
- Error reports: 30 days.
- Accounting records: 7 years, as Swedish law requires.
8. Your rights
You have the right to access your data, correct it, have it deleted, restrict or object to how we use it, and receive it in a portable format. You can export your trades to CSV in the app at any time. To use any of these rights, email 74wille@gmail.com from the address linked to your account. We reply within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten, imy.se) or the data protection authority where you live.
9. Security
Data is encrypted in transit, and access rules on our database and file storage limit each person to what they are allowed to see. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach puts your data at risk, we will tell you and the authorities as the law requires.
10. Age
The Service is for people aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger.
11. Cookies and local storage
See our Cookie Policy. In short: only what is strictly needed to keep you signed in and remember your settings — nothing for tracking.
12. Changes
If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will tell you in the app or by email before the change takes effect. The date at the top always shows the latest version.
