What kind of personal information does pytrading.com use?
When you make an Help Me Choose a Broker request or ebook download request, you will be asked for the relevant pieces of information required to fulfil the services requested; this may include your name, contact details (email, address and telephone number) and other data collected that could directly or indirectly identify you.
When you visit our website, even if you do not make a specific request, we may collect certain information, such as your IP address, which browser you’re using, and information about your computer’s operating system, application version, language settings and pages that have been shown to you. If you are using a mobile device, we might also collect data that identifies your mobile device, device-specific settings and characteristics and latitude/longitude details. None of this information by itself will be able to tell us who you are, but it can still considered to be ‘personal’ information.
We may also receive information about you when you use certain social media services.
