Privacy Policy

Service: converge.markets, a websystems.co product

This explains what Converge stores, why, and what you can do about it.

1. What we collect

You give us:

• Email address — to create your account, sign you in by magic link, and send alerts and billing notices.
• Telegram chat ID — only if you link Telegram, so alerts can reach you.
• Venue API credentials — only if you choose to connect Kalshi or Polymarket to sync your balances.
• Your stated bankroll — if you type balances into the sizer.
• Launch-list email and plan interest — if you join the launch list, so we can notify you once when sign-ups open. We also record which page you joined from.
• Sports plan settings — the books you use, your bankroll and any betting limits you report, if you choose to save a plan.
• Push subscription details — your browser's push-service address and encryption keys, only if you turn on push alerts.

We record as you use it:

• IP address and timestamps for sign-ins and sensitive account actions, to catch abuse and rate-limit sign-ups.
• Which signals you logged as taken, so your trade history and P&L work.
• Bets you track — the game, selection, book, odds, stake, result and closing-price comparison, so your bet tracker works.
• Optional product analytics — if you allow analytics, page views, clicks, plan interest and feature use. We use first-party analytics and Google Analytics, and may use PostHog, to understand how the site is used. These records may include a browser identifier and referral source.

We do not collect your payment card details; those go directly to Stripe. A venue connection may require an API or signing credential that you explicitly provide, as described in §4.

2. Why we're allowed to hold it

To provide the service you asked for, to bill you, to keep the service secure, and to meet our own legal and accounting obligations.

3. Who else sees it

Only the services we need to run Converge:

• Stripe — payments and subscription state.
• Resend — sending email.
• Telegram — delivering alerts, if you link it.
• Railway — hosting and the database.
• Sentry / BetterStack — error and uptime monitoring.
• Cloudflare — site delivery, security and web analytics.
• Google Analytics — website usage measurement.
• Browser push services such as Google, Apple, Mozilla or Microsoft — delivery of alerts to devices where you enabled push.

We use PostHog for product analytics if it is enabled in the service configuration and you allow optional analytics. Some of these providers may process information outside Canada, where it may be subject to the laws of that country.

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it for advertising.

4. Venue credentials

If you connect a venue account, the credentials are encrypted at rest with a key held outside the database. Access is restricted to the service handling your connection; other users cannot retrieve them. Disconnecting deletes the stored connection. These user-provided credentials are used to read your balances for sizing, not to place trades on your behalf.

5. How long we keep it

• Account data — while your account exists.
• Launch-list entries — kept for the launch notice; there is currently no automatic deletion schedule. You can ask us to remove your address at any time.
• Quotes — generally 7 days; market observations — generally 14 days, then purged automatically.
• Trade history you logged — while your account exists, so your P&L stays intact.
• Sports plan settings and bets you track — while your account exists.
• Sports signal and alert records — generally 180 days; line-movement history is generally removed two days after the game.
• Sign-in and audit records — a rolling window for security purposes.

6. Your choices

• See it or take it with you — email us and we'll send what we hold.
• Correct it — change your email from the account page.
• Delete it — email [email protected] to request account or launch-list deletion. We may retain records that the law requires us to keep. Cancelling a subscription does not delete your account.
• Stop alerts — unlink Telegram or disable your alert rules at any time.

7. Cookies

Converge sets a session cookie to keep you signed in and a preference cookie to remember whether you allowed optional analytics. If you allow them, Google Analytics sets _ga cookies and we use browser storage for first-party analytics and referral attribution. You can change your choice through the "Analytics preferences" control on site pages. Declining does not stop you from using Converge. Cloudflare may set cookies for site security and currently runs a separate web-analytics beacon. These tools are not used by Converge to serve advertising.

8. Children

Converge is intended for adults who are of legal gambling age where they bet (19 or older in Ontario). We do not knowingly collect children's data.

9. Security

Credentials are encrypted at rest, traffic is served over HTTPS, API keys are stored hashed, and access to production is limited to the operator. No service is perfectly secure; if a breach affects you we will tell you.

10. Changes

We post any change to this policy on this page and update the effective date above. If a change is material we also email the address on your account.
